Chapter 165 - Free Event

"Never mind! What are we doing here? I'm already sick of his flat face, let's go to the canteen!" Jonathan continued irritably.

After that he immediately left the hall and was followed by two of his friends.

"A series of welcome programs have been delivered by everyone concerned and the final remarks will be delivered by Mr. Ju as the biggest donor on this campus. Mr. Ju is welcome!". Said Gibran who hosted the event.

Hearing Julian's name being called using the loudspeaker, Qiara's heart skipped a beat. It was her husband, also the idol of her female friends. But at the same time, Qiara glanced at Demian who was sitting calmly even though many pairs of eyes stole glances with him, including Sora who had been staring at him without looking anywhere.

"Why is my heart not like this? On the one hand I feel my heart beating when I am with Demian, but on the other hand, my heart is beating as well as a sense of happiness grows in my heart when I see Julian. What's wrong with my heart? Why is this?". Qiara thought with a frustrated face.

"Welcome new students to this beloved university. As a regular donor, I feel happy to see your enthusiasm during the new student admission period. Therefore, I plan to make a contest for the selection of the best boys and girls on campus. The winners will not only get prizes. but it will be a model for advertising my product. This contest is open to all students on this campus. Terms and conditions you can find on the organizing committee". Julian said with an orderly tone and a smile that was charming even if a little. 

Hearing what Julian said, everyone immediately clapped their hands with joy. 

They can't wait to enter this prestigious contest and compete head-to-head with their seniors. 

"What the hell is Julian? What does he mean by making this contest? Does he want to show off? Or does he want to show me something? But why hasn't he glanced at me all this time? Doesn't he also want to be caught if he's married?". Qiara thought with a sullen face.

"I love you Mr. Julian ...". Shouted one of the female students while standing shyly.

Everyone including Qiara turned to the source of the voice.

"Who is she? How dare she say that to Mr. Ju". Whispered the seniors who were there.

"Wow ... Someone expresses her feelings directly. But we'll see what Mr. Ju will say!". Whispered the others.

"It will definitely be rejected or ignored. Because this is not the first time a student has expressed her love for Mr. Ju". Said the girl next to her.

Hearing these whispers, Qiara also threw her gaze back onto the stage waiting for Julian's response.

"Why is he silent? Is he going to respond to the girl's expression? Ohhh my goodness. Why do I feel hot in this situation?". Inner Qiara.

"Thank you for that expression of love, I really appreciate it. But I already have a wife". Said Julian with a sweet smile glancing at Qiara. 

Instantly Qiara's face turned red at Julian's answer.

Meanwhile, everyone was immediately shocked and disbelieved, because as far as they knew, Julian had never held a wedding, nor was there any news about his closeness to any woman. Then, who is his wife?

"What? Mr. Ju is married? How is it possible? With whom?". Asked the lecturers and journalists who were also at the event.

After saying that, Julian said goodbye to everyone without giving an explanation of what he had just announced indirectly. 

Not long after, he and Andi immediately stepped off the stage and left the show because they had to go back to the office.

Seeing Julian leave, several reporters try to chase him because the news about Julian's marriage is an interesting topic for them to discuss. However, they could not interview Julian, because Julian was heavily guarded by two of his bodyguards so that the reporters were disappointed by this.

Qiara was still silent with flushed cheeks to hear Julian, who said he already had a wife.

"Why do I think Julian is so cool today? Ahhh ... He dares to say that he's married. Really guy. Hehe". Inner Qiara while holding her cheek.

"Alright! Because our special person has left, then we will continue the free program. Is anyone willing to contribute their expertise?". Gibran said again after Julian left.

All lecturers and campus immediately stood up and left the stage to give students time to play and enjoy the remaining events.

"Qiara ...?". Hearing that familiar voice call her name, Qiara was surprised from her reverie.

Instantly Qiara's heart seemed to fall out, her eyes were perfectly rounded again, because she was worried that someone would think badly about her relationship.

"Qiara, what's wrong with you?". The voice returned to Qiara's ears as she felt the person's hand on her shoulder.

Instantly Qiara immediately looked over with a complicated expression, not forgetting to look left and right, afraid that her friends would make gossip. Julian's presence on campus made her a parno.

"Demian?". Qiara said after looking up at Demian who was standing beside her.

"Demian, why did you appear at the wrong time? Sora must be observing me from somewhere, she will definitely think things over". Inner Qiara while looking down.

"Hey .. Are you a new student? Why are you standing there?". Shouted one of the students who was annoyed that Demian was blocking her view. 

Fortunately, Sora was going to the toilet, while Vega was just pensive watching Demian trying to get Qiara to talk.

Hearing a shout from behind, Demian turned his head slowly. Instantly those who were disturbed fell silent.

"Wow ... he's really handsome, I don't regret going to this campus. Apart from being prestigious, this campus is filled with handsome boys. Earlier, handsome guys who are mature. So cool seniors. And now, young leaves that are fresher and really clear. Who is he? From which faculty? I really want to get acquainted". Said some of the women who were annoyed, started to look at Demian. 

"You're right, he looks like a complete package. Looks like he's a rich kid. Ahhh ... I want to be his girlfriend". Said the woman who sat beside him. 

Since their voices were quite loud being only one seat away, Qiara and Demian and Vega heard clearly what they were saying.
