Mi Xiaoying looked troubled.
She really didn't want to go!
"Sorry, I really have things to do. You know, the chairman has decided to hold the school festival next month. As the chairman's children, not only will Miss be involved, but both young masters will have to fly back from England to take charge. I'm really too busy to get away. Maybe after this period?" Mi Xiaoying politely refused.
"It's just a movie," Chen Yicheng still didn't want to give up.
The more Chen Yicheng discovered Mi Xiaoying's strengths, the more he wanted to win her over as soon as possible.
With such great qualities, what if someone else snatched her away first?
Mi Xiaoying couldn't help but frown and said, "Yicheng-ge, what are you so anxious about?"
Only then did Chen Yicheng say, "I just thought, since I just returned to the country and don't have many friends, I wanted to get closer to you. Did I do something wrong to make you unhappy?"
Mi Xiaoying smiled and said, "That's understandable. But I'm really sorry, I'm just too busy. My whole life will be devoted to serving the Yin family and Miss. So, I'm sorry, I have to break our appointment."
"Alright then. Let's meet another day," Chen Yicheng replied reluctantly.
Mi Xiaoying nodded and said, "I'll take my leave now. Goodbye."
The moment Mi Xiaoying turned around with that big bouquet of red roses, the professional smile she had been wearing collapsed instantly.
It was enough to drive anyone crazy!
There had been plenty of people pursuing her before, but she could always refuse them firmly.
But now, with this one, she could only keep dragging it out.
What a tangled life!
She clearly didn't want to drag things out, but in order to break Young Master Yuhan's hopes, she had no choice.
But how much longer could she keep rejecting Chen Yicheng?
Would her mother keep pressuring her?
Mi Xiaoying felt her life was so bleak!
If Miss Yin and Ethan Yin went to different schools, wouldn't that be great!
Back at Saint Diana Academy, Cherry Miller received a call from Ryan King: "Cherry! Where are you? Hurry up! You're the only one missing!"
Cherry was stunned. "What's going on? Miss Yin still has class today!"
"Last-minute schedule change! Get over here, quick! Leo and Theo Mo are already here!" Ryan King said with a grin. "Zeke is here, Sam Shang just arrived! We're only waiting for you!"
"Alright, I'm coming right now," Cherry Miller laughed. "Send me the address."
Ryan King immediately sent the address to Cherry Miller, who turned around and headed to their gathering spot.
Looks like the afternoon schedule really did change. They all ended up in the Esports Room.
Looks like they're gearing up for another round of gaming battles.
As soon as Cherry Miller walked in, the group waved at her in unison. "Cherry, over here!"
Cherry quickly handed her purse to one of the household staff, then sat down next to Yina Yin, joining the fun. "What game are you guys playing?"
"It's for the competition at next month's school festival," explained Leo Mo. "Cherry, rumor has it you're the one chosen to be in charge this year?"
"Nonsense! Mrs. Yin never said anything like that," Cherry Miller replied.
Ryan King grinned. "That's just because it's still early! I counted, and honestly, you're the most qualified person for this. You're not only gentle and detail-oriented, but you have tons of experience. No one else could handle it! Besides, if other girls saw Ethan Yin and Miles Gu, wouldn't they go crazy and rush the stage? Ethan and Miles would never agree to that, right, everyone?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"But Cherry is different! She's one of us!" Ryan King continued. "Besides, Ethan and Cherry—"
Ryan King paused meaningfully and smiled. "Also, the principal wouldn't trust anyone else with something this important. If Cherry handles it, not only can we relax, but she'll get even more management experience. That's what we all think."
The others kept nodding along.
Sam Shang, who rarely spoke, chimed in, "I think Cherry is the perfect choice, too."
Cherry Miller gave a wry smile. "Don't say that, everyone. If Mrs. Yin asks me to do it, I'll do my best no matter how hard it is. But if she doesn't, I won't make things difficult for her."
"Why would it be difficult?" Ryan King, Leo and Theo Mo, Sam Shang, Zeke, and Yina Yin all said at once.
