Blessed with a happy family and a fulfilling marriage, Gaoxing's days were going so well that Zhao Yan always wore a faint smile whenever he met anyone. Sometimes, before he could wipe the smile from his face, he would run right into Cáo Bóshān and the others. There was no helping it; the Hanlin Academy was only so big, and since they all worked in the same place, they were bound to bump into each other constantly.
Zhao Yan slowly put away his smile and walked past with his eyes straight ahead. His way of dealing with Cáo Bóshān and his clique was to ignore them entirely and treat each other like thin air—ignoring one another completely was the best outcome.
If they tried to start trouble, he wasn't one to cower either. The Hanlin Academy was different from other places, and his official rank was actually higher than Cáo Bóshān's.
