Home / Chapter 54 Meeting Again, Things in the Hall
Ling Howard and Claire Bennett sit in the new student area of the hall and listen to the music.

Ling Howard holds his hand on the hypothetical keys in the air. His slender fingers move flexibly. He imitates musicians, throws his hair around and attracts the attention of several girls around.

Claire Bennett laughs. Ling Howard is very good.

They sit in silence for a moment.

The opening ceremony begins. An old man with a white beard comes up. He is the dean of the college. He addresses the freshmen and then leaves.

"Let's welcome Qi Elizabeth, president of the Student Union!"

A voice sounds behind the scenes, causing a small disturbance among the new students.

Before entering the school, the students have heard that the president of the Student Union is not only a highly accomplished musician but also a great beauty. Nowadays, many people are looking forward to seeing her. The second generation of the rich and the sons of the officials are thinking about how to get along with her.

Soon, a beautiful woman in a red dress comes onto the stage. She has long black eyelashes, a fair face and scarlet lips.

Qi Elizabeth, unlike most girls, is very tardy.

But Claire Bennett looks at the woman and her face changes.

Because Qi Elizabeth slapped her at that banquet last time and was kicked by Leo Howard and vomited blood.

This woman is very hypocritical. Claire Bennett has some dissatisfaction in her heart.

Ling Howard suddenly chuckles and says, "I don't think she looks as good as you."

Claire Bennett blushes and looks at him. "You're kidding." In fact, she is very happy.

Qi Elizabeth speaks on stage and then announces that the next step is the oath of new students.

Every new student has a corresponding number. They get the draft for the oath first and then they take the oath in groups.

Qi Elizabeth is in charge of distributing drafts. She accidentally sees Claire Bennett and recognizes her. She remembers the day. A malice rises in her heart and a malicious smile rises from her lips.

Claire Bennett also sees Qi Elizabeth. She fears that she will be entangled by this mad woman. When she is upset, she sees Qi Elizabeth coming.

To Claire Bennett's surprise, Qi Elizabeth has a kind smile on her face.

Qi Elizabeth walks up to Claire Bennett, nods slightly and says, "Miss Bennett, I'm sorry about the last time. I think I did something wrong. I apologize to you today."

Claire Bennett is an outspoken person. Now that Qi Elizabeth has offered to apologize, she can accept it. So she smiles and says, "I was too excited at that time. You are my senior, and please take care of me more."

Qi Elizabeth grabs Claire Bennett's hand. "Of course."

Qi Elizabeth says, "I almost forget to give you the draft. Later you read the draft."

Qi Elizabeth puts the draft in Claire Bennett's hand and points to the other freshmen who are ready to go on stage and says, "Come on, now you should go on stage too."

Claire Bennett nods and they walk up the stage together.

Qi Elizabeth holds her hand intimately as she walks up the steps. But Claire Bennett's feet suddenly hurt. She shouts in the quiet hall. She looks down and Qi Elizabeth's high heels are stepping on her feet.

Claire Bennett frowns and looks up at Qi Elizabeth. She finds her laughing ironically.

Before she can respond, Qi Elizabeth releases Claire Bennett's hand and shouts, "What's wrong with you? Don't you know it's a hall? You're rude."

There is a rustling sound under the stage. People stare at Claire Bennett with dissatisfaction.

Claire Bennett suddenly realizes that Qi Elizabeth is playing a trick on her. She is very angry and pushes Qi Elizabeth, "You are too much!"

Qi Elizabeth pretends to lose her centre of gravity and falls to the ground. She falls in a good posture. This woman disguises herself very well.

Qi Elizabeth suddenly cries out, "You're so presumptuous that you hit me, come on."

The students from the student union also join in.

At this time, the guards finally come out. They are going to take Claire Bennett out of the hall. But someone stands by Claire Bennett and waves the guards away.

The man is wearing a black tuxedo. He is tall. He's peaceful but tough.

It's not someone else. It's Bryce.

He gently pulls Claire Bennett beside him and gently asks, "It's all right, Claire."

Claire Bennett is also amazed at why Bryce is here and is about to ask. "Are you still camouflaging?" Bryce says to Qi Elizabeth on the ground. "You're the president of the Student Union, and it's damaging to your reputation."

Qi Elizabeth has not been taught in this school. She immediately stands up and sneers and says, "what are you? Are you looking for women in the hall?"

"And you, Claire Bennett. If Leo Howard knows you are out with other men, what will he do to you? Master Howard will not like to share a wife with other men." Qi Elizabeth points to Bryce and Claire Bennett and mocks.

Bryce frowns. He has never met such a rude woman.

Qi Elizabeth yells and brazenly calls in the guards.

Bryce sneers and says to the guards beside him, "Come here and drag this mad woman out."

The guards nod and without any hesitation they start.

Bryce throws Qi Elizabeth an indifferent look and scorns, "Qi Elizabeth, you get the position of president by your body. Do you think we don't know?"

"Who are you?" Qi Elizabeth is tied up by guards. Her face is filled with fear and shame.

Bryce says impatiently, "I am the chairman of this college."

Bryce waves and the guards pull Qi Elizabeth out.

The hall is quiet for a moment.

Bryce pats Claire Bennett on the shoulder to comfort her. He smiles at the students and says, "Now go on taking an oath. If someone breaks the order, I will punish him."

Although Bryce smiles and speaks calmly, it still makes people feel that there is a sense of killing, which makes the hall more solemn at once.

Claire Bennett steps on stage and begins to read the oath with the rest of the team. But when she sees the words on her draft, she almost trembles with anger.
