The weather had officially turned to autumn, and the centennial celebration of Imperial University commenced in full swing.
The External Relations Department had completed its work prior to the festivities.
Other departments, short on manpower, sought volunteers for assistance.
Chi Yu, chosen for her impeccable image, was assigned as a guide for alumni, primarily tasked with escorting them to the newly built auditorium for a historical tour.
Speaking of alumni, both Qi Chao and Gu Qinnian were Imperial University graduates.
By some coincidence—or perhaps not—Chi Yu didn't encounter either of them. Instead, she unexpectedly crossed paths with someone she had no wish to see.
The last time Chi Yu had seen Chi He was months ago.
It seemed he had recently stumbled upon some good fortune, radiating confidence and exuberance.
