Chapter 1240: Chapter 664 Romance from a Student to the Principal (Please Subscribe)_2
Ding Yue had tested the Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicle a few days ago and had resolved the issue with the lack of chips. Now, he was just waiting for the countdown to the launch event.
These past couple of days, whenever he encountered students, they would always ask when the new energy vehicle developed by the school would be launched.
It was clear that many students were quite looking forward to this new energy vehicle.
The most important thing was that Ding Yue had already replaced his Audi with this Feiyue Future No. 0 New Energy Vehicle. He would drive it around the school from time to time, attracting a lot of attention.
Every time Wen Ruohan came to the bottom of the Administration Building, she couldn’t help but take a glance at Principal Ding’s handsome car.
It really was handsome, with an exceptionally high aesthetic value and a sci-fi quality that no other car could match at the moment. Once the Feiyue Future was officially launched, she definitely wanted to buy one.
She might not be able to afford it in full, but she could buy it on installments!
Moreover, Wen Ruohan had heard from Principal Ding that the selling price of the Feiyue Future New Energy Vehicle was not high. With this in mind, maybe she could afford to pay in full.
Since becoming Principal Ding’s personal secretary, Wen Ruohan had saved up a considerable amount of money. Coming up with two or three tens of thousands of dollars shouldn’t be much of a problem.
"Good morning, Principal Ding."
Wen Ruohan arrived at the principal’s office and saw that Ding Yue had already come in earlier than usual.
Usually, it would be Wen Ruohan who arrived first, and then Principal Ding would follow, or they would coincidentally meet at the Fifth Canteen.
However, today Wen Ruohan didn’t run into Principal Ding on her way to the Fifth Canteen for breakfast. After eating, she went to the principal’s office to start her usual workday.
"Good morning, Xiao Wen."
Ding Yue greeted his secretary, Wen Ruohan.
But when Ding Yue saw Wen Ruohan naturally heading towards her work position, he couldn’t help but wonder.
What was going on?
Today was Ding Yue’s birthday. Although he didn’t make a big deal out of birthdays in previous years, his secretary, Wen Ruohan, would always be the first to wish him a happy birthday.
How come today it seemed like she had forgotten?
Had she forgotten?
Ding Yue speculated that it was indeed possible; after all, Wen Ruohan was quite busy with her daily work, always running around here and there with him. It wouldn’t be unusual for her not to remember that today was his birthday.
Ding-a-ling!
Just as Ding Yue was perplexed, his phone rang.
Picking it up, he saw it was a call from his mother, Zhang Yuping.
"Hello, Mom."
Ding Yue answered the phone.
As expected, it was his mother, Zhang Yuping, calling to wish him a happy birthday.
Anyone could forget his birthday due to being busy or whatever, but his mother, Zhang Yuping, would definitely not forget.
"Son, happy birthday! Based on how low-key you’ve kept your birthday in the past years, I’ll prepare some delicious food for you, just like before."
His mother, Zhang Yuping, said with a laugh over the phone.
"Sounds good."
Ding Yue immediately responded.
He had kept his birthdays simple over the last few years, and except for Huang Youjie, Xu Bin, and his family members, not many others knew about it.
His secretary, Wen Ruohan, did know because Ding Yue had told her, but for some reason, Wen Ruohan seemed to have forgotten it today?
After hanging up with his mother, Zhang Yuping, Ding Yue continued with his usual principal’s office routine.
There wasn’t much going on today, mainly just things concerning the school’s New Year’s Eve Gala at the end of the month.
Each year, the New Year’s Eve Gala at Mist City Arts and Science University was a rather grand affair. After all, it marked the transition into the new year and was also an important day for the teachers and students of Mist City Arts and Science University to come together to celebrate.
This year’s New Year’s Eve Gala, like previous years, would be hosted by the school’s arts and sports departments, with the head of the department, Director Xiong Yang, responsible.
More than a month ago, the arts and sports department had already started preparing the programs, and at this point, the preparations were almost complete.
"Principal Ding, we’re going to have our first rehearsal for the New Year’s Eve Gala tonight. Could you come by later to inspect it?"
Director Xiong Yang had just finished reporting to the principal’s office and then invited Principal Ding to come and observe the first rehearsal for the New Year’s Eve Gala tonight.
"Sure."
Ding Yue thought that he didn’t have anything else to do that evening, so he nodded in agreement, keen to see how the students were preparing for the New Year’s Eve Gala.
In the blink of an eye, the day had passed.
Zhang Yuping, his mother, had prepared a "birthday special" for Ding Yue at the Fifth Canteen for both lunch and dinner, and his secretary Wen Ruohan, who tagged along with Principal Ding, had also enjoyed these two "birthday specials."
All the while, Ding Yue was puzzled; with things as they were, could it be that Secretary Wen Ruohan had not remembered that today was his birthday?
Ding Yue was still looking forward to Wen Ruohan wishing him a happy birthday; if she didn’t remember, he might give her a subtle reminder before she left, otherwise, he felt that the day was somehow incomplete.
After dinner, Ding Yue, along with Secretary Wen Ruohan, made their way towards the school’s Central Sports Ground, a walk that could help digest the meal, taking about fifteen to twenty minutes.
As the saying goes, "A walk after a meal will have you living until ninety-nine."
Tonight was the New Year’s Eve Gala rehearsal, and Ding Yue planned to see which performances would be featured in this year’s Gala.
Previous Galas had always been quite spectacular, especially last year’s, which had featured an artist like Lin Zhirou, raising the overall standard.
If Lin Zhirou were to sing at this year’s Gala, then Ding Yue would definitely be there to support her.
After all, Lin Zhirou was now a top-tier singer in Xia Country.
"Principal Ding, you’re here! Come this way, please."
Seeing Principal Ding arrive, Director Xiong Yang of the Sports and Culture Department hurried over to greet him.
"Director Xiong, are there plenty of diverse acts at this year’s New Year’s Eve Gala?"
Ding Yue immediately inquired.
"Of course, our students are very talented. This year, so many of them wanted to sign up to perform that we ended up with too many acts; unfortunately, quite a few didn’t make the cut for this year’s Gala."
Director Xiong Yang explained with a smile.
"Hahaha, that’s great. It’s a good problem to have. For those who didn’t make it this year, no worries, there’s always next year, right?"
Ding Yue said with a chuckle.
Once upon a time, when Mist City Arts and Science University only had one cohort of students, they almost couldn’t muster enough acts for the Gala.
But now, the university had grown to over 80,000 students, all multi-talented, leading to an abundance of acts.
"Absolutely."
Director Xiong Yang agreed repeatedly.
"Oh, by the way, Director Xiong, is student Lin Zhirou participating in the New Year’s Eve Gala this year?" Ding Yue asked.
"Student Lin Zhirou? Well, you see, Principal Ding, she was actually invited by Dream Blue TV Station to their New Year’s Eve celebration. "
"The Dream Blue TV Station?"
Ding Yue muttered, "That’s impressive."
Dream Blue TV Station was one of the top provincial stations in Xia Country, known for high viewership.
"However, Lin Zhirou turned them down and chose to take part in our school’s Gala," Director Xiong Yang added with a smile.
"Ah, that’s something."
Ding Yue, on hearing this, momentarily didn’t know whether to laugh or worry.
So, Lin Zhirou had turned down a live New Year’s Eve broadcast on Dream Blue TV to perform at the school’s Gala.
This surely reflected her deep affection for the school.
While Ding Yue was pondering this, suddenly there was a whooshing sound from the Central Sports Ground, like the noise of mechanical propellers spinning.
Buzz~
Accompanied by a humming sound, a fleet of drones took off in unison, immediately capturing Ding Yue’s attention...
