Chapter 1118 GRADUATION

1118 GRADUATION

LUO YAN sat in his seat, feeling a bit bored and sleepy as the principal began the opening remarks of the graduation ceremony. He glanced around at his classmates, all in their school uniforms, and stifled a yawn.

The principal's speech about their journey and the future ahead seemed to drag on, and Luo Yan found it hard to pay attention. His mind wandered to the Arcadia Cup's final tournament that would happen next week. Thinking of it made him feel less sleepy. He shifted in his seat, wishing the speeches would end soon so they could move on to the more exciting parts of the ceremony.

He glanced back to the area where family members of the graduating students were seated, and he immediately saw his father and brothers sitting at the forefront. Yu Jiao's mother was sitting beside Luo Ren.

A student could actually only bring two family members at most. Of course, his father would be one of the two, which meant that between Luo Ren and Luo Jin, only one of them could go. Both his brothers wanted to go, so how could one of them give in?

To solve this, Luo Ren suggested a brilliant idea. And that was for him to go together with Yu Jiao's mother. When Luo Ren asked, Aunt Xiuying, of course, agreed without second thoughts.

That was a kind of genius move on Luo Ren's part. Not only did it solve the problem of their family, it was also sending some kind of underlying message. That Luo Ren was part of Yu Jiao's family. Or at least, trying to be. Fôllôw new stories at novelhall.com

His older brother really be moving like some schemer. He was just glad that Luo Ren was not some evil mastermind. If he was, then Luo Yan would be the first one to make sure that he and Yu Jiao would not end up together.

Luo Yan brought his attention back to the stage. Thankfully, the principal had finished the opening remarks, and it was now time for the presentation of awards to recognize outstanding students, such as those who brought honor to the school through academics, sports, or the arts.

Luo Yan watched as the representative, a confident and well-spoken girl named Li Wei, took the microphone. She began by thanking the teachers and parents for their support over the years. She shared some memorable moments from their time in high school and talked about the challenges they had overcome together. Her words were heartfelt and sincere, and she encouraged her classmates to face the future with courage and optimism. As she finished, the audience erupted in applause.

With that done, the most important part of the ceremony was finally here: the giving of diplomas. The principal returned to the podium, calling each graduate's name one by one. Luo Yan watched as each student walked across the stage, accepting their diploma with a handshake and a brief word of congratulations. He saw his classmates beaming with pride, their families cheering and snapping photos from the audience.

The graduates held their diplomas tightly, a mix of relief and excitement on their faces. He could understand, since this moment marked the end of one chapter and the beginning of another.

When his name was finally called, he stood up and made his way to the stage. As he walked, he could see his father and brothers clapping enthusiastically with big smiles on their handsome faces. All three also quickly raised their phones, most likely to take pictures and video.

Luo Yan could only smile while waving at the three.

Reaching the stage and accepting his diploma, one thought lingered in his mind: Was Shen Ji Yun already outside school, waiting for him?

Happy graduation, Yan Yan and Jiao Jiao! (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚*
