Tianhai University is one of the top institutions in Tianhai, with a rich cultural heritage. Many of its graduates have become prominent figures in society, some entering politics, others becoming entrepreneurs, and still others achieving various other successes. Tonight, a gala is being held at Tianhai University to celebrate its centennial anniversary.
Tianhai University is very close to the villa where Ye Chenfeng and Tang Xin live. It usually takes only about ten minutes to walk there. When Ye Chenfeng arrived at the university gate, the scene was quite impressive.
Luxury cars filled the entrance, most likely belonging to former students who had returned for the centennial celebration. These successful individuals were naturally coming back to see their alma mater, to meet old classmates, and to show off their wealth and success for a sense of satisfaction.
"Looks like I should buy a car soon. Always walking isn't a good solution," Ye Chenfeng thought to himself.
"Big Brother Chenfeng, I'm here!" Tang Xin had been waiting at the gate. Seeing Ye Chenfeng, she called out and ran up to him, panting heavily and placing her hands on her heaving chest.
Led by Tang Xin, Ye Chenfeng entered Tianhai University. As a prestigious institution with a hundred-year history, the moment they stepped through the gate, a strong academic atmosphere enveloped them. Ye Chenfeng had once been a student at Tianhai University, but he had entered through connections and never even obtained a degree, which was indeed a bit embarrassing to admit.
Soon, the two entered the auditorium where the gala was being held. The auditorium was spacious, capable of accommodating at least a thousand people. A stage had been set up at the front for the performances.
Tang Xin had already arranged a seat for Ye Chenfeng in the second row, with the first row reserved for teachers.
"Big Brother Chenfeng, I have to go backstage to prepare. Just wait and see!" Tang Xin gave Ye Chenfeng a sweet smile and ran off to the backstage.
Most of the seats in the auditorium were already filled. The gala was about to start, and Ye Chenfeng, with nothing to do, didn't know what to do.
At that moment, a young man around twenty-one years old approached Ye Chenfeng. Dressed in designer clothes, he had a rather decent appearance but a haughty expression. He said, "Uncle, are you Tang Xin's brother? Or..."
The young man's name was Ding Mingfei, a third-year student at Tianhai University with considerable influence among the students. He had been secretly in love with Tang Xin for a long time, but she had always been indifferent to him.
Of course, Tang Xin was one of the acknowledged beauties at Tianhai University, and she had many admirers, but Ding Mingfei was the most outstanding among them. However, Tang Xin's heart belonged only to her Big Brother Chenfeng, and she found all other men far inferior to him.
Ye Chenfeng immediately knew what this guy was up to. He thought to himself, "Looks like Xin'er is quite popular at Tianhai University!"
A smile curved at the corner of Ye Chenfeng's lips as he retorted, "Uncle? I'm more like your grandpa! Too bad I don't have a grandson like you."
Ye Chenfeng was only twenty-five years old, and being called "uncle" by this unknown guy was not a pleasant experience.
Ding Mingfei's face darkened. He asked bluntly, "What's your relationship with Tang Xin?"
"Hey, you little punk, you're really funny. What does it have to do with you? Get lost," Ye Chenfeng was not interested in competing with this kid.
"Fine, you're brave. Wait until the gala is over, and I'll show you what I can do," Ding Mingfei said, knowing he couldn't start a fight in the auditorium with so many prominent figures from Tianhai present.
Watching Ding Mingfei storm off, Ye Chenfeng rubbed his nose in exasperation. He hadn't expected to encounter such a punk at a gala.
As the small incident with Ye Chenfeng and Ding Mingfei passed, a male and female host took the stage to announce the official start of the gala.
One by one, captivating performances began. Ye Chenfeng wasn't particularly interested in any of them; he was waiting for Tang Xin's performance.
Halfway through the gala, the female host announced, "Next, please welcome the beautiful sophomore Tang Xin, who will perform a captivating dance."
Tang Xin appeared in a white chiffon dress, her face adorned with light makeup, adding a touch of allure. She looked like a fairy who had stepped out of a painting, untouched by the mundane world.
The music began softly, and Tang Xin's body moved gracefully like a dancing butterfly, her eyes filled with intense love, her focus always on Ye Chenfeng in the audience.
Every smile, every movement was filled with deep emotion, making the male students drool and fantasize that the dance was for them.
Ye Chenfeng felt the depth of the little girl's love, touching the softest part of his heart. He vowed never to let Tang Xin feel sad or hurt again.
The stage was bathed in a soft, hazy light, and the music's tempo gradually quickened, making Tang Xin's dance even more enchanting.
Ding Mingfei, sitting in the audience, clearly saw that Tang Xin's gaze was fixed on Ye Chenfeng. He considered Tang Xin his possession and now hated Ye Chenfeng with a vengeance.
As the music ended, Tang Xin did not immediately leave the stage. She picked up the microphone, took a deep breath, and said, "Today's dance is dedicated to one person, the most important person in my life. Xin'er has promised to dance only for him for the rest of her life."
The audience erupted in excitement, and the teachers began whispering among themselves.
When did the sophomore beauty have a boyfriend? This news shattered the hearts of all the male students. If Tang Xin could dance for them, they would gladly sacrifice three years of their life!
Ding Mingfei's eyes grew even darker. He stood up and walked toward the stage, determined to embarrass Ye Chenfeng, even if he couldn't physically confront him now.
As Ding Mingfei mysteriously walked onto the stage, all eyes were on him. Some even suspected that the person Tang Xin was referring to was Ding Mingfei, or why else would he go up there?
