Chapter 117: Play for a Year

Chapter 117: Chapter 117: Play for a Year"Cheng Yuanyuan, I’ve already said it—we’ve broken up, so let’s not cling to each other anymore." Dong Li flung the woman’s hand away with an indifferent expression.

"That’s not it, Dong Li, I know you still love me. I was really just bewitched before. Now I realize that you’re the one who truly loves me. We still have a chance to be together," the woman insisted, clinging tightly to Dong Li’s hand.

"I see you’re only coming back to me because that rich young master dumped you. I’ve seen through it all. Just stop the act; I will never be with you again."

Dong Li pushed the woman away and walked off, leaving her sitting on the ground, sobbing. This time, she truly had an ill-fated misadventure.

"Well done, it seems you’ve understood a lot."

A voice reached Dong Li’s ears, and he swiftly turned his head to see Xiao Yifeng walking over with a smile.

"Brother Xiao." Seeing Xiao Yifeng, Dong Li’s face showed a hint of a smile as he said, "I’ve been fooled once; if I fall again, I’d really be a fool. Besides, I already have a new girlfriend."

"Is it the waitress from the restaurant?" Xiao Yifeng asked.

With a look of surprise, Dong Li responded to Xiao Yifeng, "Brother Xiao is really something. I’ll take you to have dinner with her someday. If it weren’t for you, I might not have met Wen Ya."

"Alright, where is the venue for the school anniversary celebration?" Xiao Yifeng asked.

"Oh, Brother Xiao, you’re here for the anniversary celebration? I know the spot; it’s in our school’s grand auditorium. I’ll take you there. It’ll be quite lively tonight," Dong Li said.

Suddenly, a crowd of students rushed towards the school gates, their excitement palpable.

"What’s going on?" Xiao Yifeng was startled.

"I don’t know either; let’s go have a look," Dong Li said with a puzzled look, and then both of them followed the crowd.

By now, the area in front of the school gates was densely packed with a large group of people—all students of Tianhai University—who were frantically shouting a name.

Zhou Xinyi!

Zhou Xinyi!!

Zhou Xinyi!!!

Hearing this name, Xiao Yifeng seemed to understand. He recalled Ye Yashi mentioning a famous pure and innocent female singer attending tonight’s anniversary celebration—wasn’t her name Zhou Xinyi?

So everyone here was a star-chaser. He hadn’t expected the school to have so many fans; it was truly madness.

"Brother Xiao, it looks like Zhou Xinyi, our star guest for tonight’s school celebration, has arrived. All these people are her fans," Dong Li explained.

Soon, two Mercedes escorted a luxurious RV, which slowly drove into the school, surrounded by students who transformed into enthusiastic fans, cheering loudly.

School leaders and teachers appeared to welcome this big star, and the school had even mobilized a team of security guards to maintain order at the scene.

After the motorcade entered the school, it soon stopped, and a number of robust men in black suits wearing sunglasses and earpieces emerged from the Mercedes cars—they were bodyguards, standing imposingly around the RV, surveying the area with a vigilant look.

"This is quite magnificent," Xiao Yifeng commented as he watched the scene unfold.

"Nowadays, Zhou Xinyi is one of the hottest stars in China’s entertainment industry. With a value in the millions, she naturally needs strict protection to prevent any accidents," Dong Li remarked calmly as he observed.

Then, a middle-aged man in a black suit and somber expression stepped out of the driver’s seat of the RV, emanating a chilling presence that made people reluctant to approach.

The man opened the side door of the RV, and a woman in her thirties wearing a plaid blazer stepped out first.

Her long, fair legs were so round and smooth that even professional leg models might not compare, surely enough to captivate any male student for a year.

As everyone anticipated, Zhou Xinyi emerged, dressed in a stylish and elegant black gauze dress, tall and poised, with a delicate, flawless face that was both innocent and cute, with a touch of sexiness—undeniably a supreme beauty.

"Zhou Xinyi!"

As Zhou Xinyi stepped out from the RV, the several hundred students at the scene once again erupted into thunderous cheers. The crowd, consisting of both men and women, gazed fervently at the famous beauty in front of them. She, in turn, smiled gently at the students and nodded her head, appearing very friendly.

Zhou Xinyi then swiftly left the area, escorted by a group of bodyguards and school leaders. Fortunately, the school had prepared for the day by sending out a large number of security guards to maintain order. Otherwise, if the students got too wild, it could easily lead to trouble.

"Indeed, she’s a great beauty," Xiao Yifeng nodded in approval, then suddenly furrowed his brow and scanned his surroundings, his eyes flashing with an unusual look.

He had just felt a whiff of murderous intent, which wasn’t directed at him and vanished as quickly as it appeared, leaving Xiao Yifeng unable to find the source.

"Absolutely, she’s the goddess of countless men at our school," Dong Li said, unaware of any murderous intent.

"She must be your goddess as well," Xiao Yifeng glanced at Dong Li.

"I’m not into idol worship; I just want to be an ordinary person," Dong Li replied, his eyes narrowing slightly and his pupils flashing with a complex expression.

Xiao Yifeng smiled and said, "But some people are destined not to be ordinary. Whether ordinary or extraordinary, as long as you follow your heart, that’s all that matters."

Dong Li cast a glance at Xiao Yifeng, "You’re right, I haven’t had many friends in over ten years, yet I feel a sense of kinship with you, Brother Xiao."

"Really?" Xiao Yifeng’s eyes twinkled, but he remained silent.

"Let’s head to the auditorium, or we’ll be late and miss out on seats," Dong Li suggested as he led Xiao Yifeng towards the auditorium.

"Come on, hit her hard, keep going until she begs for mercy."

As Xiao Yifeng and Dong Li passed a small grove on the school grounds, they saw a group of flamboyantly dressed girls brutally beating up another girl who cowered on the ground, her hair in disarray.
