Chapter 1761 Everyone Hates An Outstanding Person

Yasmin had never felt so embarrassed before.

With lan’s unrelenting reprimands, topped off with the astonished looks of the crowd in the library,

all she wanted to do at the moment was to find a hole to crawl and hide.

I only took a glance at his laptop. Is there a need for him to have such a reaction?

She grew frustrated.

“I didn't touch your laptop. It's just that someone gave you a video call, and it's affecting the other

students here. That's why I wanted to turn it off for you.”

“You could've just shut the laptop!” lan, whose rage was still burning, retorted

At once, the library fell into a deafening silence.

Yeah, that's true. She could've just shut the laptop if it was noisy. Why fiddle with something that

doesn't belong to her? Is that girl dumb? Or is she trying to invade his privacy?

The crowd threw their stares toward Yasmin again.

Her face turned scarlet as anger consumed her.

Without uttering another word, she clenched her fists tightly as she glared at lan, then returned to

her desk, packed her stuff, and hurried out of the library.

Very well. Remember what you did, lan!

Nonetheless, lan could not care less about how the situation had turned out.

That afternoon, after finding some finance-related books, he accepted a project by the Hayes

Corporation on his laptop.

Coincidentally, or perhaps not, that project was in the same city.

Caleb: Mr. lan, According to observations, developments are still possible for that building. So, other

than clinching the deal, you have to think about its development plans. Is there any problem for

you?

lan: It's fine.

He merely responded with two words as he stared intently at the map of the commercial district

surrounding the building that Caleb had sent over.

Caleb: All right. If there are any other matters, feel free to contact me. Also, I've arranged for Ms.

Myers and the others to assist you in work.

lan: Mm-hmm.

After adding the contacts of his new assistants, he left the library as he realized it was time for his

afternoon class.

That class was a foundation course. In fact, lan did not have to bother himself about attending such

classes. But that afternoon, when he entered the lecture hall, he noticed that everyone had sat

together even though it was not a huge crowd.

After he entered, he noticed the empty seats at the back.

“You're saying that guy scolded our ice queen at the library?”

"Yeah, everyone at the library saw it. How can anyone not know who the ice queen is? She's our

goddess, someone who is so precious to us. And him? He's just a new transfer student. What right

does he have to do that?"

“Exactly!”

When the crowd saw lan making his way in, they immediately gave him a pointed glare and

deliberately displayed an enraged expression.

Nonetheless, lan walked to the empty seats with his backpack, paying no attention to their behavior.

And he was perfectly contented with that.

“Look; he's really sitting there all by his own.”

"Yeah, don’t you guys think he’s a weird dude? He never talks, and neither does he mingle with us.

Perhaps there's something wrong with him?”

“Transfer students like him most likely have some problems. I observed him during the two classes

this morning, and I noticed that he doesn’t even know what lessons are supposed to be like.”

Hearing the comment someone made, everyone immediately turned to lan again and shot him their

mocking-filled gazes.

"What are you guys saying? Don't spout nonsense. I'm warning you!"

Right then, a round-face girl, with her hair tied up in a bun, trotted into the lecture hall. Hearing the

intense chatters among the crowd gossiping about lan, she knitted her brows and chastised them.

It was Zaylynn.

The group dared not say another word upon seeing her presence.

Following that, she cheerily carried her backpack and walked up to lan.

“lan, you're here. Look what I've brought for you. Your aunt and I made a trip to the supermarket at

noon, and this is what she got for you.”

Instead of taking her books out, she passed the box she was holding onto in her hands as soon as

she sat down,

It was a box of cake, or more specifically, lan’s favorite chocolate lamingtons.

Since lan did not finish the spaghetti during lunch earlier, Susan was worried he would get hungry

and, hence decided to go to the supermarket to buy him the cake.

Hearing that it was from his aunt, his grim expression turned slightly better as he took the cake

over.

Of course, Zaylynn was overjoyed.

Not long after, the professor arrived. Earlier that day, Zaylynn had sounded Susan out regarding

lan’s interests. She also learned that the thing he hated most was getting interrupted while doing

something.

As such, she sat through the entire class quietly, without making any noises while beside him.

But just as things seemed fine, troubles came.

"Everyone, this question is slightly more complicated. I wonder if you guys grasp what I've

explained? Do raise your doubts if anything is boggling your mind.”

"Sir, 1 think you should ask the new transfer student, lan, to see if there's anything he is unclear of.”
