What does that mean? Did he tacitly agree? Or does he simply not care about such baseless things? He probably doesn’t care, right? Yeah, he probably doesn’t care!

On the day of the basketball game, Nangong Yang was really just a substitute. Nangong Yang was only responsible for getting water and handing towels to everyone. Well, not everyone, just one person, Huang Puchen. The other teammates naturally avoided the water and towels Nangong Yang handed out except for Huang Puchen, who took them without even saying thank you!

The results of the basketball game were quite satisfactory. The men’s team won first place, and the women’s team got second. Their coach was grinning from ear to ear, saying they would treat everyone to a meal! But seeing how everyone was exhausted, they scheduled it for the weekend and told them to rest and not train in the coming days.

With a rare few days of free time, Nangong Yang’s leg didn’t hurt anymore, although the swelling hadn’t gone down yet!

Suddenly, Lin Zhong pulled Nangong Yang and said, "Let’s go to the finance department class today, okay?"

"Why go to the finance department class?"

"Are you dumb or dumb? Your Senior Huang Puchen! If you don’t pursue him, someone else will snatch him away!"

"I have plenty of rivals. Do I need to worry myself sick about them every day? I’m not afraid!"

"I heard there’s a hot Canadian exchange student in the finance department, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, at least twice your size! She’s at least a D, aren’t you worried?"

"D? What’s the class in finance this afternoon?"

"Corporate Finance!"

"Let’s go!"

The last time they snuck into a class, they got caught, so this time they brazenly sat in the row behind Huang Puchen. "Hello, Senior Ji," Nangong Yang greeted. Huang Puchen turned and saw them — Nangong Yang, Lin Zhong, and Su Ke sitting together.

"You guys don’t have classes?" 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"We have the afternoon off."

Huang Puchen ignored them further. Nangong Yang glanced around but didn’t see the Canadian girl Lin Zhong mentioned. "Lin Zhong, where’s that Canadian girl you talked about?"

"Canadian girl?" Su Ke asked.

"Lin Zhong said a Canadian girl came here?"

"That’s my girlfriend, here to see me."

Lin Zhong! You little rascal! He dared to tease her, and Nangong Yang gritted her teeth, messing up Lin Zhong’s hair until the professor walked in and made her stop!

Corporate Finance wasn’t a course Nangong Yang liked; midway, she started dozing off. Lin Zhong had already gone off to date Miss Zhou, her Mr. Zhou, it would be nice to have an afternoon date...

"The girl in the fifth row, fourth seat, answer the question,"

Mr. Zhou, don’t go, Nangong Yang was dozing off with her chin in her hand, Mr. Zhou, why are you running away? Suddenly someone knocked on the desk, startling Nangong Yang’s Mr. Zhou away.

"They’re calling you," Su Ke reminded Nangong Yang.

"The girl in the fifth row, fourth seat, answer. In corporate governance, what’s the main inconsistency between shareholders and managers?"

What inconsistency? "Objectives?"

"And according to this question, what’s the value of its stock?"

Staring at the question on the board, this... arithmetic? How do you calculate it?

"10.5%," Huang Puchen quietly prompted her.

"10.5%."

"Very good, please be seated, let’s continue..."

"Thank you, senior," Nangong Yang poked Huang Puchen’s back with a pen.

The class ended quickly, and Nangong Yang’s drowsiness vanished, and Lin Zhong revived.

"Seems like your Senior Huang Puchen should help with something?"

"What?" Of course, helping Nangong Yang wasn’t out of good intentions!

"Help me get Han Wanwan to come out."

"Did you guys have a fight?"

Lin Zhong shook his head, "I upset her."

Alright then, after all, Nangong Yang enjoyed the sweet taste of his mischief first; despite having only one class to be close to her senior, sacrifice one’s small self for the greater good!

She called Han Wanwan and, using Nangong Yang’s own desire to go shopping as an excuse, got her to come out.

"I’ll leave the rest to you; I’m off." Better leave some time for the two to get along well, she needed to go back and catch a nap.

On the way back, a luxury car blocked her path, hey, what a temper of hers!

"This is a school; even if you’re driving, you should watch the road! What if you hit someone?!"

The driver got out, ignored her, and opened the rear door. A noble lady stepped out, looked at her fleetingly as she put on her sunglasses, and said to the driver, "Wait here." She elegantly walked away in high heels — in the direction of the finance department!!!

She rolled her eyes at the driver, who cares whose rich lady you are, she’s going back to continue her date with her Mr. Zhou.

She slept soundly until six in the evening; what a comfortable nap!

Seeing Han Wanwan hadn’t returned, she took out her phone to call her, but just as she was about to press dial, Han Wanwan’s call came through, hey, what telepathy!

"Hello." A lazy voice.

"Why are you still sleeping?!" Han Wanwan’s voice was sky-high over the phone.

"What’s up?"

"Hurry and come out, the usual place to meet you!" She said and hung up.

Nangong Yang hadn’t snapped out of it, out? Where? At the usual place! Why is Han Wanwan so anxious, did something happen?

Nangong Yang quickly dressed and ran to their usual spot, everyone was there!

"Did something happen?"

"Today, Huang Puchen’s mom suddenly came to campus, and she took Huang Puchen home."

"Ah? Why?"

"Huang Puchen’s mom arranged a political marriage for him, and since he refused, she took him home."

How can there be such parents! How could they measure their children against interests?!

"Then why did you guys call me out? I can’t save Huang Puchen." It’s someone else’s family matter, even if Nangong Yang felt unsettled and lost inside, it wouldn’t help.

"If you don’t take action, Huang Puchen really will become someone else’s. This time we’re not lying to you," Lin Zhong was serious too.

Rarely seeing Lin Zhong so serious, things weren’t as simple as Nangong Yang thought, "Then what should I do?"

"Go find Huang Puchen? You’ve never confessed face to face!"

"Really, face to face? I can’t bring myself to say it!!"

Before she could finish speaking, they ushered her out, huh? Whose car is this?

"Get in!" Lin Zhong got into the driver’s seat...

"Where are we going now?"

"To find Huang Puchen?"

"His house isn’t in this city, right?"

"I called, he hasn’t left A City yet, he’s at the S Hotel."

S Hotel entrance...

"Huang Puchen, I... I..."

"Your sleeve is already crumpled from your grip."

"Ah? Oh," She instinctively let go.

"If there’s nothing else, I’ll head back."
