The Mafia King's First Love

The Mafia King is not mute at all

Inside the seminar hall, Meng Ya waved her hand. "Lihua here! Gosh, you are finally here!"

Lihua breathlessly sat on the chair next to her.

Meng Ya smacked on her head. "Seriously, you just barely made it in time."

But Lihua seemed to be thinking something else. Her eyes were starry and sparkly.

"I am talking to you, dummy head!"

"Yaya, I think I am in love…" she mumbled.

"What? Did you hit your head somewhere?"

"No, but my heart seems to have hit somewhere. Yaya, is this what first love feels like? I can hear my heartbeat so clearly."

Meng Ya pinched her cheeks.

"Ow! Ow! It hurts!" Lihua cried.

"It should. What are you thinking of love when you are about to give such an important presentation now?"

Lihua said, "What should I do if I met a Godly handsome man right outside who saved my job today? From the moment I saw him, only his face is flashing in my mind like a sweet siren."

Meng Ya sobbed. "Who are you? Who has taken over my friend's body?"

"It's still me, Song Lihua."

The door opened and the professor entered. He had that strict and stern gaze as always.

Lihua whispered. "I will tell you everything later."

Meng Ya's mouth twitched. "Just don't mess up this presentation."

"The Godly handsome man saved my job so I won't mess up and let his help go to waste."

"..."

The professor stood at the center of the podium and said, "Students. I hope you are ready with your presentations. There is a judging panel seated on the other side who will watch your presentations. The panelists are a mix of executives from different companies. If they like your thesis and performance, they would offer you a job contract. If any student receives more than one offer, he or she is free to choose the company they would want to work with. Results will be announced after lunch."

Everybody nodded.

"Any questions?"

"No, Sir."

"We are going to start. As of this moment, no late students are allowed into the hall."

Lihua gulped.

I really could have been that late student today.

The lights dimmed and the projector started.

"Song Lihua."

"Yes sir!"

She hastily stood up but her knee hit the desk and she yelped in pain. "Ow…"

"Pfft…" the other students whispered and laughed at her clumsiness.

Meng Ya facepalmed.

"Silence."

Everybody straightened up.

"Song Lihua. It's your turn first."

She nodded.

Lihua began her presentation as she also showcased her thesis side by side.

On the other side through a glass panel, the Godly handsome man was quietly watching her. As she waved her hands on the stage, highlighting the important points in the slides, his gaze shifted to his own hands. He remembered how she had shaken them hard.
