Chapter 1593
Her Lip gloss glistened under the stage lights. Wesley had an urge to run up there and kiss them without mercy.
He closed his eyes and listened to her speech. She was so fluent it was amazing. He was quite proud of her, and it only intensified as time wore on.
The speech only lasted for a couple of minutes. When it was done, the audience gave her a standing ovation that echoed throughout the whole venue. Blair gave them a broad smile, thanked them with a bow, and walked off the stage.
Wesley was in no mood to enjoy the rest of the gala, no matter how wonderful the programs were. Feeling frustrated, he left his seat and told Talbot, “Assemble in the school hall tomorrow morning for the final closing ceremonies. I’m going home.”
Before Talbot could even respond, he had already left.
Wesley found a place away from people and the noise. He leaned against a tree and lit a cigarette. He needed the quiet, and he needed to get a hold of himself.
He was about to drop the cigarette and grind it out when he heard a voice.
“Look, Blair, I think you’re awesome. It was love at first sight. My dad runs the largest food factory in the city. We’re rich, and I can give you a rich life. Will you go out with me?”
Blair opened her mouth, and to the boy’s and Wesley’s surprise, she said in English, “I’m just not into you, Farris.” She got a dreamy, faraway look in her eye.

“When I get the guy I want, it won’t matter if he’s rich or poor. It’ll be an affair of the heart. And I just don’t think of you that way. Leave me alone.”
The boy, Farris Rayne, was from a rich family. He was a player, a real
“Love them and leave them” type. Blair didn’t even want to talk to him.
“What? Can you say it in Chinese?” he asked in confusion. Obviously, he couldn’t make heads or tails out of what she said. His English wasn’t as good as hers.
“Tell you what. Pass the TEM8 exam, and you can ask me out again,”
Blair said in Chinese. She knew he wasn’t good enough to pass that high-level test for English majors, so she figured he wouldn’t bother her anymore. Blair sighed helplessly. Since she left the stage, three boys had confessed their Love to her. What was more, none of them were men worth having. She was on the brink of a nervous breakdown.
Farris didn’t know what Blair had said in English, but Wesley could. He curled his lips, and felt lucky that he had obtained the TEM& certificate.
Farris got angry and threw the flowers he held to the ground.
“Hey, don’t play the holier-than-thou card with me! I have money, and I can buy as many TEM8 certificates as I want.”
‘Money? I really don’t have money, ‘ Blair thought and sneered. ‘But I don’t give a damn about it.‘ “I admit that the TEM8 certificate is nothing. I also passed the TOEFL and IELTS exams. And now I’m studying for my GRE. Tell you what, buy me those test results and I’ll be your girlfriend. Oh, and the CATTI certificate for translators too. Level 1,
2, or 3, doesn’t matter.”
The boy’s face turned red with embarrassment as he Listened to her. He couldn’t get all that. It would cost a small fortune. Besides that, it wouldn’t matter. His grades weren’t up to snuff.
He felt he would burst with anger and shame.
“Just tell me yes or no.
Quit jerking me around,” he spat. NôvelDrama.Org © content.
