Chapter 168: He Really Likes You 1

Translator: 549690339 |

Thankfully, Dongfang Yu had been behaving well so far, otherwise he would have faced relentless opposition.

If Dongfang Yu intended to pave the way for Hai Xiaotang, he would not refuse.

Regardless of what Hai Xiaotang thought, his belief was simple—if Dongfang Yu’s arrangements were beneficial for Hai Xiaotang, then all was well.

If it was advantageous, he would accept it and would even coerce Hai Xiaotang into accepting it, even if she loathed the idea.

Because he knew, one day, Hai Xiaotang would thrive due to the choices she was making now.

Hai Xiaotang probably understood his reasoning, but she truly did not want to accept it.

However, her grandfather had tried so hard and insisted that she accept it, so she had to.

After much thought, Hai Xiaotang ultimately decided to accept the plan to study at C University…

Early the next morning, Hai Xiaotang left to go register at C University.

Her grandfather didn’t accompany her, stating that it was time she learned to be independent.

Hai Xiaotang didn’t plan to bring him along anyway.

She had made arrangements with Qiao Ning; having Qiao Ning with her was enough.

Qiao Ning had been waiting at the school gate since early, and when she saw Hai Xiaotang get out of the car, she joyously rushed to greet her.

“Xiaotang, are you really going to study at C University? When you told me last night, 1 was so happy, 1 still can’t believe it.”

In fact, Hai Xiaotang herself found it hard to believe.

She laughed, “It’s real. Look, here’s the acceptance letter.”

She dug out the acceptance letter from her bag and handed it to her.

Qiao Ning took a look and cheerfully said, “It’s from our C University. Xiaotang, you’re so amazing, how did you get this acceptance letter?”

The two knew each other well, so Qiao Ning naturally knew that this acceptance letter was acquired through special channels.

Hai Xiaotang coughed shyly, “It was Dongfang Yu who arranged it. He insisted I come, so here 1 am.”

“Didn’t the two of you divorce? Yet he’s still so good to you.” Qiao Ning seemed envious all of a sudden, “Xiaotang, Dongfang Yu really likes you, doesn’t he? Otherwise, why would he still want to help you so much even after you’ve divorced?”

“1 didn’t ask for alimony, this is him compensating me,” Hai Xiaotang said indifferently.

“But, 1 feel like he really likes you. That time when you were injured, you didn’t see how scared he looked, he was really worried about you.”

Hearing this didn’t stir any emotions within Hai Xiaotang. “He might like me, but I don’t like him.”

Qiao Ning was puzzled, “If you don’t like him, then why did you marry him?”

Hai Xiaotang didn’t want to continue this conversation and pulled Qiao Ning towards the campus.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore, let’s go register. You have class later, right? Let’s not waste any more time.”

The two rushed to the administrative office to register, where the staff had been waiting for her.

Seeing Hai Xiaotang arrive, they enthusiastically helped her with the registration process and even had her textbooks prepared.

“Xiaotang, you can start attending classes tomorrow. Here’s your schedule. Although classes are in session today, you’re not familiar with the school. Why don’t you take today to get to know the campus?” The staff kindly suggested.

Hai Xiaotang expressed her thanks to the staff and left with Qiao Ning.

“Xiaotang, are you planning on attending class today?” Qiao Ning asked her.

Hai Xiaotang, clutching the textbooks in her arms, had mixed feelings.

She was finally back in school. For Dongfang Yu, she had decisively given up on attending university and had never regretted it before.

But now, in her second life, she felt regret.

Luckily, she had another chance to return to school…

Hai Xiaotang nodded with determination, “Of course 1 will attend. I already know so little, missing out on even one class would mean missing out on a great deal of knowledge.. Qiao Ning, since I’m not familiar with the place, could you please show me to the classroom?”
