Sweet Desire! The Cold Lord God, Who Can Tease, Coax, and Act Coquettish. - Chap 1418
“Ah?” The staff member, who was still a senior student, simply said, “Sir, is the name correct? It’s the same as on the program.”
Si Jin took the list, took a look at it, and crossed out one of the characters “理” with a pen, writing “矜” instead.
“That’s my name.” He handed the program back and added, “Jin means proud.”
“Duan Sijin… Duan Sijin… Oh, that’s right.” The student read it twice and nodded quickly: “Maybe one of the classmates made a mistake when copying it? I remember that the senior’s photo had always been hung on the wall of honor, but I don’t know why it was suddenly taken down recently. I will notify the host to change it now.”
“Okay, thank you for your help.” After seeing the guests off, Si Jin sat down in his own seat obediently, chatting with several alumni of the same class from time to time.
Seeing this scene, Manager Duan, who had come over reluctantly, suddenly turned pale with anger, and even his hand on Jiang Lianru’s waist tightened unconsciously.
It was not until the woman’s tearful reminder that he loosened his grip and walked a few quick steps to Si Jin’s front: “Hey – someone who forged academic qualifications is also worthy of being an outstanding alumnus and attending the school celebration? Duan Si Jin, who gave you the face? Did the school send you a notice and you came?”
After saying this, Manager Duan became even more arrogant.
Old Master Duan had intercepted the notice long ago and arranged all the relationships for him. Now, he is the outstanding graduate here, and even if Duan Sijin comes, he will only be a joke!
Si Jin smiled but didn’t say anything. Instead, the man next to him took the initiative to ask, “That’s right, Si Jin graduated from here. We were classmates. Who are you?”
“Oh.” A woman in high heels spoke up, “You’re the one who slandered Si Jin’s academic credentials online a while ago, right? I was wondering, I used to be in the student union and worked with Si Jin for four years, how could he be fake?”
After hearing this, others also chimed in: “Yeah, it’s fine if you pretend online, but why do you pretend here? Who gave you the face to do it?”
“Si Jin is my senior. He taught me before. Excuse me, big brother, who are you?”
Everyone was talking, and Manager Duan became the target of public criticism before the banquet even started.
The originally proud face collapsed in an instant, turning red as if someone had slapped him several times, and he wished he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
Fuck! Why is Mr. Duan so inconsiderate?
He knows how to take care of professors and staff, but doesn’t he know how to socialize with these stupid alumni?
They all know Duan Sijin, how can I pretend?
Manager Duan couldn’t stand it anymore and strode out the door, almost crying because of the ridicule from everyone in the room.
As soon as I got to a place where there was no one, I called Mr. Duan.
Hearing the choking voice of Xiao Fuxing across from him, Mr. Duan’s heart was about to break: “Hey, Lili, don’t be sad. It was my negligence, but you don’t have to worry too much.”
He said, “I have arranged for you to host and several professors who will be attending. You will still be the one giving the speech on stage. Nothing will change.”
“Okay, thanks, Dad.” Manager Duan hung up the phone, and with great difficulty he calmed down and went into the backstage.
Looking through the curtain at Si Jin sitting quietly in the audience, his teeth were chattering.
Duan Sijin, don’t you like to act like a demon? Then I’ll let you be proud for a while!
The speech will start soon and you will be in trouble!
After a while, the school anniversary program officially began.
After the performance, the host strode onto the stage and announced: “Next, our seniors who have graduated will share their success stories with everyone. Now, please invite the outstanding alumni representative, Manager Duan, to speak to everyone.”
After saying that, he started clapping his hands.
