The first but unofficial encounter between Jiang Li and Bai Qing happened also on the same day, at the same place .
It was when the girl chased after Zhu Li and Xia Xinyue only to pause halfway when she caught sight of a charismatic, aloof, but handsome man whose commanding aura differentiate him from the rest of the men she had encountered before .
The spotlessly clean-shaven face and soul-stealing brown upturned eyes made the female lead gaze at him like she had fallen in love at first sight . She couldn"t help but blink her eyes at the good-looking senior whose masculine elegance didn"t lessen even though he was only sipping a regular To-Go coffee .
If only the female lead was aware that the person she just gawked at had gloriously planned her downfall and death a while ago .
Unfortunately, she had no way of knowing, hence she continued looking at him for a few more seconds like a complete fool .
Unwillingness flashed across her eyes when she saw the senior and a professor leaving their seats and walking away .
But she felt a jolt in her heart when the guy frowned and turned his head to her direction as if her staring had irked something in him or alerted his senses . Their eyes met for a brief second . But that little span of time was enough for her to engrave his figure in the back of her mind .

"Who is he?" she subconsciously asked, still gazing at the back of the man in a white b.u.t.ton-up s.h.i.+rt .
A friend came to her side and saw where her eyes were glued . This newcomer didn"t see the spectacle at the dormitory earlier .
Concerned, the girl hugging a few books asked, "Bai Qing . You keep staring in their direction . Do you know Senior Jiang?"
"Senior Jiang?"
This friend of the campus belle had more knowledge of the business world than Bai Qing, so she explained,
"Yup . Jiang Li is his name . He"s an alumnus of our university, the summa c.u.m laude of his batch . If I remember correctly, Senior Jiang Li graduated two years ago . He"s now a prominent figure in the corporate world, the Chief Operating Officer of his family"s company which deals with electronics and semiconductors . "
Bai Qing widened her eyes at her friend, shocked . The man looked so young . Yet was already a high executive?
After digesting what she heard, her eyes shone brightly .
The man who just caught her fancy was actually so good . No other men seemed to be on par with him .
Bai Qing knew she was being ridiculous for coming up with this conclusion without truly knowing him . But she trusts in her intuition which had done quite a number of good things for her father"s business .
The man was definitely the one destined for her! She was sure of it!
Not long after, the woman"s thoughts s.h.i.+fted to how she would get close to this appealing and rich guy .
. . .
From afar, Bai Qing didn"t know that the two people she was supposed to chase looked back to her and saw her eyes s.h.i.+ning like she just saw a diamond .
When they followed the female lead"s gaze, one of them raised a brow while the other stared blankly at the man"s back .
The one whose left brow rose up was Xia Xinyue . As a member of a learned family, she recognized who that guy in a white b.u.t.ton-up s.h.i.+rt and black pants was .
While Xia Xinyue was puzzled why a personage of his caliber visited a place like this, what was more ridiculous in her eyes was that their two-faced campus belle seemed to have taken a liking of someone out of her reach .
"Look at this white lotus . . . "
Meanwhile, Zhu Li"s beautiful eyes didn"t leave the man"s back until he disappeared into the Faculty"s direction .
She thought this man must have some business with Professor Hao . Before she graduated, his closeness with the infamous professor spread all over the campus, so she was not surprised that he came to this university .
But actually, the glamorous woman did not give much thoughts about his appearance here .
As Xia Xinyue clicked and laughed at Bai Qing"s epic face, Zhu Li smiled and looked up to the skies .
She felt thankful .
It seemed she had now moved on .
