Ziyi"s body froze for a minute. Her brain couldn"t process the things that are happening in front of her right now. While everyone"s eyes are just glued on her in the antic.i.p.ation of her reply, she still remained like a statue. Zaw and Aseem tried calling her name by whispering, but the shocked expression was clearly visible.It is not only Ziyi who remained shocked,even the B-school head felt very surprised when Jiang Chen called out Ziyi"s family name. Although her records show her Chinese name as Zhang Ziyi, she opted her preferred English name as Icey. In fact, only very few people knew her original name.Even he knew her Chinese name,since she is the women representative of STEM courses. Do they know each other before ? As far as he know, today is Jiang Chen"s first lecture. He might have not been familiar with the students itself. In fact, he was really flabbergasted when Jiang Chen"s PA gave him a call two days earlier and mentioned that Jiang Chen was planning to take some guest lectures for Supply Chain Management, Finance and Accounting students so that he can nurture them and pick the best students for their upcoming new company. Even in his day dreams, he would have never expected that president Jiang would be free to spend 6 hours of his week schedule to accommodate teaching.Though he is the head of HBS, he clearly know how much money can he earn for a minute.He, initially, hesitated out of worry that he might not be able to afford Jiang Chen"s salary but his PA laughed when he mentioned about Jiang Chen"s salary.His PA said that Jiang Chen has his own personal reason to teach and he is not expecting any salary from Hardley University. Only after listening to his reasoning, the head of HBS felt relieved. Originally, they want to welcome Jiang chen in a grand manner but his PA mentioned that their president preferred to be low key. So, only the vice chancellor welcomed him at 3 PM and now he came to introduce himself as the of Hardley Business School.Now that he think about it, the entire matter seems somewhat strange. Though there are two sections for SCM course, Jiang Chen insisted on taking the lecture for only Ziyi"s cla.s.s. While he was brainstorming the entire situation, his eyes noticed the gentleness in Jiang Chen"s eyes. There is little smirk that never left his eyes while his eyes are just fixed on Ziyi.
Mr.Parker coughed little and shouted, "Icey !! what"s wrong with you ? Prof.Jiang asked you a question. Why aren"t you answering ?". This time, Ziyi snapped back to the reality.She instantly answered, "Sorry Mr.Parker. My mind wandered off for a minute."
"You apologized to the wrong person. I think you should be saying sorry to Mr.Jiang for your rudeness", Mr.Parker reprimanded.
Left with no other option, Ziyi sighed and said, " I am sorry Prof. Jiang. I didn"t know that you are our professor. Please pardon my ignorance. "
"Don"t worry Miss Zhang. In fact, it"s my fault that I didn"t introduce to you all. You can have your seat now. Next time, please be on time", Jiang Chen replied sarcastically. He was still smiling after saying that sentence.
Ziyi smiled gently saying, "Thank You Prof. Jiang !! You are very kind.", while her eyes shot daggers at him. Without waiting for another second, she climbed the stairs and sat next to Feng Mian. Her calmness emitted a strange aura which made Feng Mian shudder in chillness. She whispered in Zaw"s ear, "Why is Icey this cold ? Just now she smiled very gently to Mr.Jiang. But now, her coldness is murdering my poor soul."
Zaw smiled and replied, " How long have you been friends with her ? We call her expression as smile on the face but inside her heart, it"s WTF moment..."
Feng Mian closed her mouth crossing her both palms in shock. Now she understood why everyone says that Zaw is the only person who can read her mind completely. She must be careful now that she knew tht Ziyi is super mad.
