Queen Of Hearts Is The CEO’s, Mysterious Love. - Chapter 118

A man dressed formally while holding a gift package was equally shocked to see Li Na entering as if he knew the girl for a long time and saw her after ages.

Regarding the man’s change of expression Li Na frown slightly.

Then inadvertently, her gaze shifted from him to the gift in his hand and also notice an attractively arranged bunch of flowers with a mini place card stuck in it placed on the table before him.

The man recovered from the shock and quickly averted his gaze from Li Na like a foreigner while concentrating on the purpose of his visit to the School’s Principal.

While pretending to be stranger as well Li Na eventually stepped into the hall. And as per given instruction sat on the opposite couch while waiting for her call.

Li Na turned to look skeptically at the girl along with the man, she’s well acquainted with the schoolgirl sat beside him holding a classic gold embellished invitation card.

Though Mei Xing had seen the man a couple of times only during their family parties as he’s the personal ȧssistants of Zhang Han’s elder cousin sister, Zhang Genji, and the 18-year old girl is her daughter, Lei Chow, she was startled at first to meet them here.

Later on, Li Na didn’t find it too odd to see Zhang Genji’s ȧssistant here as firstly she thought it of an occasional visit with Li Chow after all at this age elite socialist females start building their interaction and connections with other influential status personalities perhaps the school’s principal is one among their business relations. It’s accidental that she meet them here. But that invitation card held by the girl bothered Li Na and held her curiosity.

Perceiving the delight on Li Chow’s face, she had a rough idea, of what it could be but it would be too quick to conclude. ‘Well, just like Zhang Han’s marriage, this too seems inevitable.’ Li Na reflected bitterly. She wasn’t surprised but the growing numbness in her ċhėst was now frightening.

Barren, Li Na set her head on the backrest and slowly closed her eyes, only her ears listening to what’s progressing around her.

Within a minute, the personalities before Li Na were respectfully lead inside the cabin as a helper picked up the flower bouquet, the man and girl followed respectively. And about fifteen minutes later they stepped out.

Both were empty-handed as the girl looked extremely pleased while smiling widely and talking to the man happily where Zhang Genji’s ȧssistant maintained a content face ignoring Li Na as they made their way out under Li Na’s vigilant gaze. Not intended still, through lip reading Li Na somewhat comprehend what the girl was happily ranting about.

Passing hours felt like fleeting seconds, Li Na sat in the waiting hall, abandoned. She’s the only one who was ignored by the Principal. Whereas, people came and were called inside the Principal’s cabin but Li Na wasn’t summoned at all.

The official bell rang and school ended nevertheless, Li Na patiently endured until unmovingly. It was only when the teacher’s staff returned completing their all classes after school along with her class monitor holding Li Na’s backpack which she didn’t bother to take when asked, Li Na stood up.

At last, Li Na was summoned. All teachers stood on one side and Li Na and the class monitor holding her bag stood on another.

A lady in her late-twenties clad in extravagant clothes and jewelry doing some paperwork, wearily leaned back on her chair while putting her glasses on the table. Her inscrutable eyes scanned Li Na from head to toe.

The lady sighed deeply and breathed out with a world-weary look. ” Li Na, you again?”

An indifferent looking Li Na too regarded the woman for a fleeting second before her eyes automatically shifted around her table and locked on to an invitation card placed casually above a small bundle of files and moved to regard the flower bouquet at a corner.

An invitation to the reception. Li Na vaguely viewed the stylish-golden words embellished from a distance.

‘His reception!’ those words swirled like a gentle whirlwind in her mindfulness before it turned into a hurricane to explicate the storm in her eyes.

For a finite amount of minutes or so, except for few murmurs of words condemning her in full force in several voices, nothing worthwhile or new fell upon Li Na’s ears, it was all same old ocean of complaints, blames, and rebukes. Her mind and eyes hardened on the flower bouquet only to hear an irked loud voice snapping her out of it blinking softly.

“Sorry! What did you just say?” Li Na asked while adjusting her focus on the matter which appeared to be more serious for them than she actually considered it to be.

“Li Na! You’re forcing me to call your guardian. This behavior of ignorance is not acceptable.” The lady Principal roared threateningly. She’s been trying to talk with the girl but this girl was offensively ignoring her and acting indifferently as if she’s nothing.

This is truly outrageous!

Not all teachers knew who is Li Na’s guardian as they knew that she’s an orphan child thus nobody bothered so as it’s not that Li Na is a special case from an elite family, Li Na’s grandmother looked after her and by judging Li Na’s arrogance and bad habits it’s clear that Li Na turned out of that old lady’s restriction.

Yet someone else was looking after her for sure. Many find it unusual as only the lady Principal knew about Li Na’s current guardian’s ȧssociation and only she’s allowed to contact that person. There were different noises about it too. Especially, since Li Na was fifteen and on a regular day, Li Na suddenly fainted in the school during a class and then rushed to the medical room where after doing a moderate check-up on her the in-charge woman has urgently shifted Li Na to a hospital.

Only the lady Principal knew that the rumors of Li Na’s pregnancy were true before she did her best only suppressed it for the school’s reputation and a few days later the involvement of Lu’s family in the matter she was compelled to erase all the traces.

From the bitter clashes between the second master Lu Jun-hui and Li Na in regards to hiding the news of her pregnancy from Lus, the lady principal got a slight idea of Li Na’s sour relationship with Lus and how the pregnant girl was boldly threatening them.

After long discussions and hard consultation with Elder Lu, the lady Principal let Li Na lose as both parties discuss whether to keep the baby or not. It was dangerous and risk-taking for Li Na’s life but the girl was too stubborn to agree on aborting the child. At that time five years ago, Lu’s family was not so well-known in the country what it is today but their wealth and connections were widely extended, and on top of it, meanwhile, they allowed a future star and multitalented scholar like Bai Tian to get admitted in Li Na’s school. She did wonder if that was to keep a guard or help Li Na other than doing her school a favor of having such talent but nothing worked unlike Lu Jun-hui Bai Tian could bȧrėly tolerate Li Na.

The Principal didn’t know if the baby was aborted or continued but the massive amount was awarded to the school’s trust along with many corporate benefits to shut her mouth was enough for her to never raise the issue with Li Na or with anyone else. She accepted Li Na back into school on Lu’s request as if nothing happened.

With the passing year’s she learned to know more about Li Na and was convinced that a bit of skilled girl in maths is nothing but a nuisance in rest. All the resources and efforts to establish Li Na in the entertainment industry were waste with Li Na’s crude ways of dealing with others and losing that god-given backing. No wonder Li Na chose to die over continuing life after a great series of failures. However, here she is… alive, still standing tall and untouched, with a baffling overbearing aura surrounding her.

All in all, a lot has changed about Lu family’s power and Li Na’s custodian, except for this girl’s stubbornness and arrogance. No matter how understandingly someone treats her she’ll bite them back. She was a hopeless brat and she’ll remain forever.

The lady Principal scowled at Li Na.
