Hai Xiaotang had no idea what Dongfang Yu thought of her.
Today, she didnât go to the library, choosing to study at home instead.
Hai Xiaotang was certainly hardworking now, pouring into her studies as much as two or three times the time her classmates would.
What was that saying again? The tears you shed in marriage are the water that got into your brain when you chose your husband.
Hai Xiaotang couldnât think of anything more fitting to describe her situation.
Even the sweat she was pouring out for her studies could be considered the water that got into her brain when she chose her husbandâ¦
Hai Xiaotang just wanted to drain all that water from her brain now, even if the process was painful.
Otherwise, there wouldnât be any space left in her head for anything else.
Before she knew it, Hai Xiaotang had studied until evening.
As night fell, the warm lights lit up in the old Hai Family residence.
Dongfang Yuâs car was parked outside the gate, a glance through the window would reveal the light on in her room.
The manâs lips curved into a tiny smirk and instructed the driver lightly, âGo knock on the door.â
âYes!â
After a while, Nanny Zhang knocked on Hai Xiaotangâs bedroom door, âMiss, someone sent you a package. They said it needs your personal signature.â
Hai Xiaotang lifted her head from her desk in surprise, âMy package?â
âYes, and itâs pretty big.â Nanny Zhang replied with a smile.
Hai Xiaotang was puzzled, she hadnât bought anything. Where could this package be from?
Could it be from someone else? From Dongfang Yu?
Nonetheless, Hai Xiaotang decided to go downstairs to collect the package. As soon as she stepped out the front door, she saw a luxurious Lincoln car!
She recognized the car right away, one of the vehicles owned by the Dongfang family!
The car door was open, with Dongfang Yu lounging inside, his gaze fixed on her, a faint smile playing on his lips.
Hai Xiaotang knew instantly that she had been duped.
She replied grumpily, âIndeed, a very large package. But itâs too expensive, 1 canât afford it, so I refuse it!â
Upon finishing, she turned around to leave.
âHai Xiaotang.â Dongfang Yu burst into laughter, âThis package is free of charge.
Hai Xiaotang turned back, âI still canât accept it. You should return it.â
âOnly you can accept it. And you canât refuse!â
âSorry, I never sign for living people. Itâs illegal.â
âLiving people?â Dongfang Yu raised an eyebrow, âThe package I sent you was this.â
He lifted a beautifully wrapped food box, with a picture of a roast duck that appeared to be wafting its own aroma.
As soon as Hai Xiaotang saw the box, her appetite quite shamelessly kicked in.
Dongfang Yu flashed a light smile: âYour favourite Suâs roast duck. After studying all evening, you can have a few bites. I think it would definitely invigorate you.â
Hai Xiaotang was surprised. How did he know that when she was studying, she always wanted to eat roast duck?
She had always eaten it at home and never in front of him!
There must have been a traitor in the houseâ¦
Dongfang Yu beckoned, âCome and get it. My health isnât too good, I canât leave the car.â
Hai Xiaotang replied flatly: âIf youâre not well, then you shouldnât be coming here. If anything happens to you because of me, I wonât be able to bear it.â Dongfang Yuâs laughter grew even more pleasant, âI know you care about me, thatâs why I plan to leave as soon as Iâve delivered the duck. 1 donât want you to worry too much.â
âWho cares about you!â Hai Xiaotang thought he was too narcissistic. Her concerns were really quite ordinary, and they werenât because she cared about him.
âWhether you care about me or not, please take the roast duck. I care about you.â Dongfang Yu said sincerely.
ââ¦â Hai Xiaotang stood still, not moving an inch..
