Fang Duo followed her gaze and was amused. “How can you compare them? Han Jingyu is a living person whom we can see every day, but this one is like a celestial being. We can only see him but can’t touch him.”
Sheng Yang was puzzled for a while; her look of confusion was also extremely beautiful. “Why, do you want to see him?”
“Of course!” Fang Duo exclaimed, looking at Sheng Yang in surprise, but then she remembered that Sheng Yang came from Bailuan Village, so it was understandable that she didn’t know much about this famous figure. She looked at Sheng Yang with sympathy and explained with great patience, “Many of my idols are stars. Ou Ye often laughs at them for only having pretty faces. But he never dares to laugh at this one. Ming Qi, Doctor Ming, has both good looks and great abilities. He’s the youngest professor at the National Academy of Medicine. He’s even won the Medical Science and Technology Award, which is the highest honor in the domestic medical community.”
Fang Duo simply couldn’t stop talking about this person. “But it’s rumored that he has a bad temper.”
Then she defended him. “Well, he’s so talented, so it’s normal for him to have a little bit of temper.”
“He has a bad temper?” Sheng Yang seemed a little surprised.
Fang Duo chuckled and waved a finger in front of her lips. “Don’t be misled by his appearance.”
Fang Duo thought Sheng Yang was mesmerized by Ming Qi’s handsome face just as she was.
Sheng Yang didn’t say anything more. At this time, her phone vibrated in the drawer. When she checked it, she realized someone had texted whose name was the number “1”. Sheng Yang glanced at the message and typed her reply. “Aren’t you doing a live interview on TV?”
The other party soon replied. “Huh? Sheng Yang, are you watching my interview?”
Sheng Yang: “Kind of.”
1: “Oh, I’m so happy you caught my interview. Sheng Yang, you heartless little girl. You refused my present for you, and now you don’t even talk to me!”
On TV, Ming Qi was answering questions expressionlessly. His poker face looked so serious and meticulous.
Who would’ve thought that he was texting someone under the table, and in a tone like a dissatisfied housewife?
Sheng Yang knew that he was talking about the piano. Fortunately, she refused it. Otherwise, he would only go further and it would create suspicion from her family.
After getting no response from her for a long time, Ming Qi’s text messages came one after another. “I know where your school is. May I take you home after school?”
His tone was so careful. It was hard to imagine that these messages were sent by this grumpy big shot.
Sheng Yang still didn’t reply to him immediately but turned to look at Fang Duo. “If one day, Ming Qi appeared in front of you, what would you do?”
Fang Duo cupped her face in her hand and thought about it seriously. Just thinking about it made her feel dizzy. She grinned from ear to ear. “I would definitely get high blood pressure and faint with excitement.”
Faint?
Without hesitation, Sheng Yang replied to Ming Qi mercilessly. “You’d better not come to my school.”
“…”

It was early autumn, and the leaves had turned golden.
A man sat quietly under a sycamore tree. He had a very handsome face, perfect almost beyond human possibility.
He was flipping through a book with his long slender fingers.
He frowned. Someone came over the wall.
Gao Feng obviously noticed this too. Yi Juncheng raised a finger slightly to signal him not to move.
