"The legal representative refers to the person who, in accordance with the law or the corporate charter, exercises the powers of the corporation on behalf of the corporation..."

Warm sunlight, a gentle breeze passing through the corridors, and a quiet classroom in the afternoon, along with the old professor's slow and deliberate lecture, all blended together to create an atmosphere of comfortable drowsiness.

Xiao Chi was already dozing off, his notes looking like chicken scratch, with wavy lines sprawled across his notebook, unclear what he was trying to write.

He jerked awake with a sudden nod, narrowly avoiding hitting his head on the desk.

"So sleepy... I really want to go back to the dorm and sleep."

"Isn't autumn sleepiness supposed to be in early autumn? It's already late autumn, seriously."

"Liang Ge, where should we go for dinner later? How about that braised chicken place by the west gate?"

...

He mumbled with his chin resting on the desk, but nobody responded for a while.

Turning his head, he saw the university's top student, Liang Sunian, leaning casually against the back of his chair, absentmindedly twirling a pen on the desk, staring out the window lost in thought.

Following Liang Sunian's gaze, Xiao Chi looked out the window, but aside from the swaying tree shadows and the distant art building, there was nothing of note.

"Liang Ge, Liang Ge?"

He nudged Liang Sunian with his elbow. "What are you looking at? Is there something that even a QQ premium member like me can't see?"

"Nothing, just looking around."

Liang Sunian stopped twirling the pen, withdrew his gaze, and looked at the textbook in front of him, his long eyelashes casting shadows over his eyes, making his expression unreadable.

"I noticed you've been quite distracted these past two days," Xiao Chi said, lying on the desk and staring at him. "Is there something bothering you? Tell your brother about it."

Liang Sunian glanced at him, hesitated for a moment, then finally managed to say weakly, "...No."

He couldn't even figure out what was bothering him, so how could he expect someone else to help him understand?

"Really?" Xiao Chi asked skeptically.

Liang Sunian hummed in response, not wanting to elaborate, and changed the subject, "What were you saying earlier?"

"See, I talked for so long and you didn't hear a word. No love at all."

Xiao Chi sighed dramatically, "I was saying, where should we go for dinner later? How about the braised chicken place by the west gate?"

Liang Sunian shook his head and declined, "No, I have something to do after class."

Xiao Chi asked, "Why do you always have something to do in the afternoon these days? We haven't had a meal together in a while, have we?"

"No choice, the campus heartthrob has been quite busy lately."

Liang Sunian smiled casually, "Next time, I'll treat you all to a big meal as an apology."

"Well... alright then!"

Easily swayed, Xiao Chi was bought off by the promise of a big meal, and he said cheerfully, "Hehe, then I'll go with Mao Mao and the others later. If you want to eat, just message me, and I'll bring you something."
