Chapter 414: Chapter 413: The Sticky Candy That Can’t Be Shaken Off
Though he was annoyed, he relented and had the school withdraw the expulsion order. An Nan ultimately left the school through a transfer. From then on, she seemed to be entangled with this person named Colby Valentine, until later when she entered flight school and used her family’s influence to block certain information about herself, thereby putting an end to the situation.
Thirteen years flew by, and she almost forgot about this person, only to unexpectedly encounter him in such a melodramatic setting today.
The expression on An Nan’s face at that moment could no longer be described as conflicted, but she quickly composed herself, played the last note, slowly closed the piano case, and turned her beautiful black eyes to meet the gaze of the azure figure in front of the stage.
"Hello, who are you looking for? Do we know each other?"
Using such a cliché method, An Nan’s own heart was writhing, but she had no choice; she really didn’t want to be bothered by this person again.
Even though they hadn’t met in over a decade, at first glance, she had a strong premonition that this man was still the same as years ago—a sticky, unshakable gum.
Under An Nan’s calm and unfamiliar gaze, the joy on Colby Valentine’s face gradually turned into a pitiful expression, and to the uninformed, this scene would definitely lead to misunderstanding.
As the expressions on everyone’s faces became increasingly peculiar, An Nan felt a sinking feeling and started to get a headache.
Damn it, there’s no hiding it anymore.
In the next moment, her black eyes accurately found that familiar silhouette in the crowd, and she began to speak, word by word: "Colby Valentine, I’ve told you before, I don’t want to be your student; stop pestering me."
An Nan intended for this explanation to reach only one person, but to the ears of those around, it instantly turned into a sensation. Many recalled something: that Colby Valentine had declared years ago to the media that he would only have one student in his lifetime, and yet this position remained vacant.
For years, countless people learning piano were striving for that position.
At this moment, everyone finally realized that no matter how hard they tried, in the end, the dream would turn into a bubble because the piano master Colby Valentine had long reserved that position for one person.
Instantly, the gaze on the azure figure on stage turned increasingly odd.
But An Nan was indifferent to all this; her calm and resolute gaze stayed on one person until she saw the same serene smile in the other’s eyes, at which point she instantly felt relieved, finally having the peace of mind to continue entangling with the azure figure in front of her.
"Colby Valentine."
An Nan had just called out the name when the other person interrupted her with excitement.
"Anna, you finally remembered me, huh? Do you know how hard I’ve been searching for you all these years, looking all over the world? Only when I realized you were Chinese did I come here with the hope of luck, and Heavenly Father truly favored me, letting me meet you as soon as I arrived."
The man, already in his forties, started crying as he spoke.
An Nan’s face went dark instantly; damn it, could this man be any more embarrassing?
