Because Ji Yang is a big deal...
So when Ji Yang first appeared in the teaching director's office, everyone started spreading rumors about Xia Xiaochong and Ji Yang's relationship.
Upon hearing Xia Xiaochong say Ji Yang was just a distant uncle, someone barely related, everyone let it go.
Later, seeing that Xia Xiaochong never mentioned Ji Yang at school nor did she act like she had any special privileges... they didn't suspect anything more.
"Hmm."
Dammit...
Ji Yang suddenly found himself particularly averse to the words "distant relative."
Clearly... he was Xia Xiaochong's man.
"Oh... then he's still Xiaochong's elder..."
Dong Hao then spoke politely, "Mr. Ji... Since you're here, could you do me the honor of being a witness? I really like Xiaochong and want her to give me a chance... Usually when someone says they have someone they like, it's just an excuse; I don't believe it."
"Hmm?"
"I don't know what your requirements are, but I will definitely meet them."
