Being stared like this, Cecilia held his arm intimately, "Patrick, I'm glad you came to see me," said she with a bright smile.
"Our crew has been filming in this high school recently..."
Cecilia looked at the man in front of her and blushed.
She asked him shyly, "Patrick, what do you think of my student look? Is it nice?"
It was a one billion dollar remake of the television series by Universe Studio, which was about a daring and honest female student in the Republican period.
In an accident, the female student saved the life of the most powerful and handsome young warlord of the time.
The drama depicted the misunderstanding between the lovers, and the touching story of their life and death together in the revolutionary cause.
The original female lead of the show was not Cecilia, and the media did not think much of her for the sudden change in the lead role.
After all, Cecilia's delicate temperament was very different from the female lead's personality in the script.
Patrick's eyes gazed down at her face thoughtfully.
"It is," he replied in a low voice.
Cecilia held his arm intimately and was flattered to hear him praising her.
She understood that with Patrick's cool personality, he was unlikely to praise others.
At this moment, she looked at his handsome profile, and she became more and more proud.
"Cecilia, you have to work hard.With Mr.Hopkins supporting you like this, you have to make an effort.Don't let those people outside look down on you."
Cecilia's manager walked up to them with a fawning smile.
"Mr.Hopkins, you came to visit us.Do you want to go in and rest for a while?"
Manager Anne asked with a smile, her eyes filled with joy.
Everyone in the entertainment business guessed who Cecilia's sugar daddy was.
If Patrick was willing to show up today, then in the future...the producers and directors had to be subservient to Patrick.
Patrick ignored the manager and looked around with a complicated look.
This high school...still looked like it was six years ago, but...
"I just passed by here..." Patrick said in a cold voice.
He withdrew his hand and pushed Cecilia away.
He didn't come here to visit Cecilia.
Cecilia looked embarrassed as she watched him stride towards the campus alone, completely ignoring her.
Cecilia thought, "Patrick isn't here for me.So why did he come here?"
The manager quickly gave Cecilia a push and whispered, "Mr.Hopkins seems to be in a bad mood.Follow him and be careful to pacify him..."
When a man was lost, he always yearned for the gentleness of a woman the most.
"Patrick, is it something wrong with the company?"
Cecilia trotted after him, her voice softly caring.
Patrick glanced at her face from the corner of his eye and ignored her, but did not say anything to drive her away.
The two walked around the campus quietly and randomly.
Cecilia found that he was very familiar with the school.
She wanted to ask more questions, but looking at his cold profile, she did not dare to speak.
Patrick was such an indifferent man.
His aloof and cool temperament always made people cautious and not dare to approach him.
This century-old high school had a long history.
Because the film crew was filming in the front school building and the students were on holiday, there was no one at the back door of the school.
Patrick strode out of the back door of the school.
Immediately, a milk tea shop came into his sight.
He suddenly stopped and looked at the milk tea shop across the street.
"Patrick,'’ Cecilia called him softly.
She looked at the milk tea shop across the street, her expression suppressing complicated emotions.Cecilia wanted to ask him something.
"Patrick, you used to go to that store a lot?"
She pointed nervously at the milk tea shop across the street.
"Very sweet."
Patrick seemed to be reminiscing and said two words.
Those milk teas were too sweet.
He didn't like sweets very much, but...
His gaze deepened as he looked at the milk tea shop opposite him.
It was as if he had returned to the past and he was standing here, while the woman of the night shift at the window of the milk tea shop opposite him was still busy.
She made all the milk tea personally.
Cecilia was stunned when she heard what he said.
She didn't know what he was thinking.
But his gaze made her cheeks redder.
She looked up at him shyly, like a young girl who had just fallen in love ‘Six years ago, he was the one who sent people to buy milk tea in large quantities!’ She was filled with excitement and joy.
"Then is it because.."
Cecilia's voice grew softer, suppressing excitement and anticipation.
"..Because it’s a hassle to change jobs...leave work early.’’ Patrick dropped a confusing sentence.
He turned his eyes sideways and stopped looking at the milk tea shop opposite him as if nothing had attracted him there.
He strode straight down the school road back to the front gate...
Cecilia was frozen in place.
"What did he mean?"
Her expression was complicated as she watched the heroic figure in front of her slowly leave...
‘‘What did he mean by those words?'’ Somehow, Cecilia felt a surge of uneasiness in her heart.
Six years ago, the milk tea shop opposite was about to close, but in the next six months, it sold nearly a million cups of milk tea.
This amazing amount of milk tea brought this small shop back to life, and it had been thriving ever since...
Cecilia knew very well since this milk tea shop was owned by her mother.
