Chapter 1177 Experience The Ordinary Life
"Fine. Forget it!" The man called Ted, cast a sideways nce at the ck Emperor car not too far
away. He caught a glimpse of the man standing in front of them and a sudden chill went down his
spine. Tiny beads of sweat breaking out of his hands and face indicated his earnest wish to retreat.
However, a tall,nky figure from one of the men standing behind him persisted. He gave Ted a pat on
the back and whispered, "We can''t just let her go. If that woman calls the police, it''s all over!"
Just as the four bandits were hesitating, about seven or eight cars pulled over right in front of them. In
an instant, more than a dozen bodyguards, all dressed in ck, burst out of the cars, guns fully locked
and loaded.
The man in charge ran over to Matthew, while his subordinates followed and bowed his head before
him. "Mr. Huo, I apologize to you on behalf of my men for beingte."
ncing at the four bandits, Matthew ordered in a cold voice, "These guys have made the big mistake
of scaring my wife. I want you to get rid of them all!"
"Yes! Mr. Huo!"
Matthew then guided Erica, who kept looking back, into the Emperor car.
On the way, Erica repeated the same question a few times. "What are you going to do with them?"
Matthew didn''t answer her at first. After his patience had run out, he finally answered, "That''s none of
my concern."
"What do you mean, it''s none of your concern? You''re the one who gave the order!"
He looked at her with indifference and said, "I''m not getting my hands dirty. What happens to them has
nothing to do with me."
Erica sighed in defeat. It seemed pointless to go around in circles on the matter.
When they returned to the vi, Erica suddenly remembered what had happened in the bedroom just
now. She blushed and clutched at the corners of her dress, seemingly ashamed. "I want to sleep in the
dormitory tonight." She was quite shaken up by him. She was so out of it at the time that he almost
seeded in doing what he wanted to do.
"There''s no need to avoid me. I''m going on a business trip tomorrow. I won''t be back until next week.
Go upstairs and get some sleep!" Matthew wanted to tell her about his trip, but he didn''t have the
chance to tell her as they had ended up getting into an argument.
"What?" ''Why is it so sudden?''
Ignoring her this time, Matthew turned around and went upstairs with an extremely cold attitude.
Just as Matthew had said, they slept as usual that night, and he disappeared the next morning.
Soon, it was time to hand in her coursework. Since Matthew didn''t allow her to take pictures of him and
Erica didn''t have any other friends in Y City, she decided to ask Hyatt to be her model.
It took her just a few minutes to finish the photography side of things, but she spent a good few hours
editing them on Photoshop.
Erica retouched the photos for three hours before sending them to her monitor''s e-mail address with
satisfaction.
In the afternoon ss, the professor selected ten outstanding works and showed them on the big
screen, two of which were the pictures of Hyatt taken by Erica.
However, the signature under the photos was not Erica''s, but someone else''s name.
Before the final analysis of the outstanding works, Professor Feng looked at more than one hundred
students from the stage and said, "These pictures on the screen are excellent pieces of work, but
before appreciating them, I have to criticize a few students among you. The first one is Tommy Wang.
This student handed in a very perfunctory photo of character, and he didn''t even know how to find the
right angle."
With a single click, the professor showed Tommy Wang''s work on the screen. His model was a male
ssmate and indeed, the picture showed no impressive techniques of photography at all.
After criticizing several students in session, Professor Feng''s eyes fell on Erica. "Thest one is a

student with the surname Li. For her assignment, this person submitted photos of the superstar, Aaron,
conducting some kind of business. Not only has this studentpletely disregarded the standards of
our esteemed establishment: her teachers and ssmates, to be very honest, but she is also in
vition of thew for using Aaron Gao''s picture without his consent. Having considered the fact that
this was her first mistake, I won''t hold her legally ountable for her actions, but I hope that this
student will respect this chance. Don''t make such a mistake again in the future!"
The professor then opened a folder, containing high resolution photos of Aaron which was taken when
he was advertising milk for apany.
The professor was a well-known photographer in Y City. He knew well about Erica''s background, but as
a teacher, he had to be responsible for her. Since he didn''t want her to face any trouble, he deliberately
kept her first name a secret, mentioning only herst.
Erica, however, wasn''t one to go down without a fight!
Just as the professor was about to move on to the next work, she stood up from her seat and yelled,
"Please wait, Professor Feng!"
Everyone''s eyes fell on Erica. Everyone heard the girl''s next words, loud and clear. "This is not my
work. The third and eighth pictures on the big screen are the ones I''ve handed in."
Countless whispers filled the ssroom, as all the students exchanged rude remarks about Erica for
handing in Aaron Gao''s photos.
"So the professor was actually talking about Erica Li. How could she do that?"
"She is the wife of a CEO. Do you think shees here for studies? She is just here to experience the
ordinary life."
"I pity Mr. Huo for having to be married to such a troublemaker!"
"How shameful!"
Professor Feng hesitated for a moment and clicked the page of the PPT that showed the top ten works.
Then he erged the third photo. This time, Erica saw clearly that the signature at the bottom right
corner of the work was Kaitlyn Dong.
''Kaitlyn Dong?'' Erica searched this person in her memory. ''Oh, it''s her!'' She recalled the name
belonging to a girl who slept in the bunk bed below hers.
The one who identally used her cleanser! Erica had no idea that they were in the same department
until now.
She looked around and saw Kaitlyn stand up from her seat at the back. "Professor Feng, Erica is
talking nonsense. This is clearly my work!"
Erica''s face went red the moment she heard Kaitlyn and she screamed, "Your work? Excuse me, do
you have any evidence to prove that this is indeed your work? Who is the person in the photo?"
Kaitlyn nced at the boy next to her and said, "The man in the picture is my boyfriend. He can testify
for me!"
The boy sitting next to her had the same hairstyle as Hyatt. Aside from very minor differences, even the
clothes he was wearing were the same color as the clothes Hyatt had worn when Erica had
photographed him that day.
As Erica had retouched the pictures a lot, it was hard to tell whether it was Hyatt or Kaitlyn''s boyfriend
in them.
Professor Feng''s face darkened. "Erica Li, please sit down first. I want to see you in my office after
ss!"
But Erica wouldn''t give in. She continued to ask Kaitlyn, "Where did you take the photos? What kind of
lens did you use? Who can testify?"
Kaitlyn answered her questions smoothly, "Well, if you have to know. It was taken on the Archaic Street
near the school. I can tell you the house number, it''s No. 88. No one has lived in that small yard for a
long time, so I filtered the photo into the retro film style. I used the new universal zoom lens T14
produced by Blue Sky Technology."
Everything Kaitlyn had said was true, word by word. Indeed, Erica and Hyatt had taken the photos at
the exact same address Kaitlyn had mentioned.
After all, Hyatt''s generally shy and meek disposition wouldn''t allow him to be a model in public. As
such, Erica had to find a quiet ce for him to shoot. Therefore, she chose an abandoned courtyard.
Erica remained unfazed. "Can you show us the original pictures?"
"Of course! And what about you? Since you''re iming that it''s your work. Why don''t you show yours to
everyone?" Kaitlyn looked at Erica with eagerness as she picked up her camera.
Erica responded immediately by opening her camera directory and finding the album.
However, when Erica scrolled through her camera, she was stunned, as though struck by lightning.
All the photos of Hyatt in her camera were gone!
