Noticing her unsettling emotions, Gu Chenyi looked down and asked, “What happened?”
Lin Qingya imdiately reined in her raging hatred. Looking overjoyed, she said, “I’m so happy. Xiao Huan is still popular despite her nasty words.”
With mixed feelings, the boy looked at the girl surrounded by her admirers.
“Chenyi, don’t do this to her anymore,” Lin Qingya urged gently.
“Do you rember how she has slandered your na in the past? She claid that you were the mastermind behind that fateful night. You were the victim and yet she claid otherwise!” He felt indignant for her sake. To him, this girl had always been thoughtful toward her bestie, and yet, not only was Mu Huan unappreciative, she even humiliated her for her learning ability in front of others!
Dipping her eyes low, the mastermind looked hurt and resigned as she comnted, “No matter how she criticized , I can’t throw away our years of friendship. I trust that she will return my goodwill one day as long as I don’t give up. I’ll wait for her to see the efforts that I’ve put in.”
“You...” The boy did not know what to say to this naive and kind soul.
Mu Huan had talked about keeping a low profile at school. It turned out that she would be the most conspicuous person on the first day.
It was a good thing that although news about her traveled far and wide, not many of them managed to catch her in person.
Mu Huan went to find the school counselor so she could move to the dormitory where Li ng was staying.
And this was how she started her first year of university.
When Bao Junyan returned ho from his business trip, it was the housekeeper who ca out to greet him instead of his sweet, young wife. This made him rather unhappy.
He asked with knitted brows, “Where’s Madam?”
“She’s at school.”
“Classes should have ended by now, shouldn’t it?”
“Madam has said that it will be more convenient for her to stay in the school compound instead of at ho during the school term. This is because our house is rather far from the university, and the school rule stipulates that they have to stay back in school for night revision classes every Monday to Wednesday. So she’ll stay in the dormitory every Monday to Thursday, and then at ho every Friday and weekends.”
“...”
It was true that Yun University was quite a distance from Bao Junyan’s place. One was in the eastern part of Yun Cheng while the other was in the west. It took about 1.5 hours by car from one place to the next.
When she received a call from him, she was at one of the comrcial streets within the university town, thrashing street thugs.
The rchants along this street were being blackmailed by these thugs who were looking for protection money, but the latter was always smart enough to hide their tracks each ti the forr alerted the police. Once the police left, they would co back, harassing the guests if the shop owners refused to pay up. Many students were too scared to patronize the stores here.
Businesses inside the university town depended on students’ patronage. Without them, they could not sustain.
Hence, the rchants ca together with so money and engaged the help of the Know-All Agency.
Mu Huan and Li ng happened to be near the vicinity and gladly accepted this assignnt. Each ti the gangsters appeared, a call would be enough to warrant their presence and they would give a good beating. Simply put, the two of them would beat them into submission!
So when she saw that the call was from her hubby, she signaled to her partner with a look and then found a private corner to answer the call.
“Hubby...” She was not sure if he had returned ho yet and what his reaction would be if he found out that she was not ho when he did.
She knew that he would disapprove of her staying on campus. Hence, she did not discuss this matter with him beforehand. By moving to the dormitory without telling him, she’d hoped that he would let her be by the ti he found out about this.
“Are you in school?”
“Yes.” She was not lying as she swept a glance over the campus compound.
“What are you doing?”
“I’m reading inside the library.”
“Good. Wait for , I’m going over to find you.”
That caught her by surprise. “Hubby, do you plan to co over?”
“Yes. I’m already at your school. I’ll reach the library shortly.”
What!
