Yi s.h.i.+qiong watched all of this from the side. Her jealousy basically poured out of her eyes as her nails unknowingly dug into her palm.

Upstairs, Mu Jinghang laughed so hard his teeth couldn't even be seen anymore, “Qingqing is so cute! I bet the Dean never would've guessed that she would embarra.s.s him like that!”

Qi Yuyang slammed the table, “Why's she my sister? I want a girl like that too!”

Jun Yexuan narrowed his eyes then glared at him.

Qi Yusen looked over to Jun Yexuan and said in a serious tone, “I now officially think that you are not good enough for her.”

Jun Yexuan, “…”

After all the drama, Qiao Qing returned to signing her fans' books.

Cui Yan said goodbye to Qiao Qing and Ruan Ling, then went back to deal with Cheng Suyun.

It took all his courage to ask for Qiao Qing's signature. There was no way he was about to line up now.

After all, he had witnessed how long the lines were. It went on for blocks. There was no way those in the back would get their books signed today.

Plus, he was a Dean and she was his student. Once she returned to campus, he could easily find the opportunity to bug her! Hmmph!

After Cui Yan left, the MC watched over Qiao Qing as she went through the meet and greet process. Then, she organized her thoughts and coughed a little bit.

Staring at Yi s.h.i.+qiong, who rushed to the entrance when the director of the national writer's a.s.sociation came, the MC suppressed her laughter, “Ms. Yi s.h.i.+qiong, you may return to your seat and greet your fans.”

Her words generated a wave of laughter.

After everything that's happened, Yi s.h.i.+qiong was now a laughing stock.

Not only did Qiao Qing's fans laugh, but even her own fans laughed.

The laughter acted like a bright slap across her face. She already felt discouraged and now she had surely lost all interest.

Meet and greet what?!

Why would she stay here and keep on being laughed at?!

Then, she pushed her hair behind her ears and stretched her face into the biggest grin she could manage.

“Sorry, everyone. I'm very thankful that you came to my meet and greet to support me but right now, I don't feel too well and cannot sign any more books.”

“I'm really sorry. When I feel better, I will host another meet and greet. Let's meet again next time. It's a promise.”

After she spoke, the place broke out into another round of chatters and giggles.

Of course, everyone knew she was just finding an excuse.

Luo Chen, who sat beside Qiao Qing, sneered at this, “How embarra.s.sing. She runs away at the first sight of obstacles.”

Sun Jing agreed, “Exactly.”

Yi s.h.i.+qiong listened to the noise around her and her face felt like it had been burned off.

She didn't care anymore. Being laughed at for a minute was better than being laughed at for a whole day.

Just as she was about to leave, a girl from her line suddenly spoke up, “You are not signing anymore? What about the fee you agreed to pay me?”

The other fans also chimed in, “Exactly. Are we still getting paid?”

Mu Jinghang spat out his tea.

“Hahahahaha, her pig teammates are all dumb in the brain… Yi s.h.i.+qiong is not going to have any face left after this!”

As he laughed upstairs, downstairs had erupted as well.

“Oh my G.o.d, I can't. I'm laughing so hard. She paid for these fans to come?”

“No wonder the lines were so long. She was here to compete against Master Feng! I see how it is – she has no brain and just has cash.”
