Chapter 24: Gossip
The graduation ceremony was as grand and extraordinary as everyone expected, with prominent school leaders and celebrities in attendance .
Even the students who came to watch the ceremony were more attentive than in the past . No one spared a glance at their phones; their attention was cast on the stage .
More precisely, to a man sitting in the center of the platform, who appeared so dazzling that he looked as if he had walked straight out of a comic book
Numerous female students couldn’t help but stare .
When the ceremony began, the headmaster gave a lengthy opening speech before having the etiquette team continue with the proceedings .
Gu Jin folded her hands in her lap and smiled politely, but in truth, she was listening closely to the other girls as they whispered excitedly about the man on stage .
“He’s so handsome!”
“He even wears gla.s.ses, and he has that elegant and restrained temperament of a high cla.s.s man!”
“Do you think he has abs?”
“Tsk, what do you think? He looks slim with clothes on but if you take them off I bet he’s a stud . ”
“Tsk, what do you think? He looks slim with clothes on but if you take them off I bet he’s a stud . ”
Gu Jin suddenly thought of the steel-hard chest that could be hidden underneath those clothes and gave an inward nod of approval .
The girls, not knowing they were being overheard, took their discussion in a direction that was not polite to describe in good company .
Gu Jun chuckled at these spring-hearted girls then returned her focus back to the stage .
Indeed, with the man’s remarkable physique and confident posture that was as straight as a tree, it was no wonder he stood out amongst the crowd of beer bellies .
Needless to say he was a fine male specimen with an outstanding appearance and a powerful aura .
However, none of this had anything to do with her .

“Hey, is he really that guy?”
While Gu Jin was lost in thought, somebody accidentally b.u.mped into her arm .
“Ah? What?” she said in confusion .
The person who b.u.mped into her was another hostess who was part of the greeting ceremony . Her eyes shone and her cheeks were flushed as she yelled excitedly, “Mu Mingcheng!”
“Mu Mingcheng?” Gu Jin said . For some reason this name sounded a little familiar .
“Mu Mingcheng?” Gu Jin said . For some reason this name sounded a little familiar .
“It’s the man sitting in the middle,” the girl explained as she looked at Gu Jin incredulously . “Even you should know of him, he’s the legendary CEO of the Mu Company . ”
The girl then gave her a once-over and eyed her suspiciously . “Are you new to the etiquette team? Why haven’t I seen you before?”
It was unusual for the etiquette team to recruit someone under 1 . 6 meters, but Gu Jin’s face was three points prettier than their captain .
“Yes,” Gu Jin replied, wanting to avoid clearing up this confusion . The girl’s question added more to her headaches and she didn’t want to waste time explaining, so she simply lied and said, “I just came in a few days ago so it’s normal if you don’t recognize me . ”
However, Gu Jin’s smile was very stiff .
The girl didn’t think too deeply about her response . She simply patted Gu Jin’s arm and said, “Don’t be nervous . Just follow me later and you’ll get used to more activities in the future . ”
