Two days after Qi Jianguo left, he called back to say he arrived safely at the school. The Cheng family had taken care of everything at the school and even sent him a congratulatory gift - a pen, which made him feel a bit overwheld.
Cheng Su told him to accept it calmly, but after hanging up, she felt that the Cheng family’s enthusiasm was really hard to handle.
Thinking back to Old Master Cheng’s wish to acknowledge her as a daughter, she couldn’t help but laugh. What virtue or ability does she have?
Cheng Su was sick for a few days, and her face, originally plump from convalescence at her hotown, suddenly thinned down, making Qi Taiguo very depressed and heartbroken. He could only try different ways to cook broths to nourish her.
By the ti Cheng Su fully recovered, it was already September. The school year started, and she went to register for the new term. In the blink of an eye, she was in her sophomore year, and ti really flew by.
She t many familiar faces again, along with many new ones. Cheng Su herself had beco a senior in other people’s eyes.
Ming Xiaofan was still the sa. According to him, starting this sester, he planned to just get by at college. Mysteriously, he told Cheng Su he was planning to start a communications company next year and asked if she was interested in investing. He also said she was amazing because the mobile phone she ntioned before now existed.
Cheng Su chuckled. The advent of the "big brother" would surprise and excite many people, and owning one was also a status symbol. Wasn’t Old Zhou that way back then?
So, regarding Ming Xiaofan’s ambitions, Cheng Su didn’t say much and continued her usual support. As for investing, they would talk about it next year, as she was currently in debt.
The school was still the sa people and things, but the one Cheng Su worried about was Ning Ge, who was still recovering in the Capital.
After hearing from Qi Taiguo about the hardships Ning Ge had endured, an unease lingered in her heart.
After returning to Qing City, she called Ning Ge. Although he sounded the sa as usual, she wasn’t reassured without seeing him personally.
But with school starting and various businesses to manage, she couldn’t leave and had to wait for the right ti.
What Cheng Su didn’t expect was that he would return to Qing City at this ti.
"Weren’t you recuperating in the Capital?" Cheng Su looked him over from head to toe.
He had lost a lot of weight, but his spirits were still good, and he was intact, fortunately!
"I was rotting away in the Capital, and it was getting dull. Didn’t Cheng Yaozu say he wanted to invest in our company earlier? I figured his funds should be arriving soon, so I ca back to handle affairs!" Ning Ge shrugged.
Cheng Su looked at him, "Are you okay?"
Ning Ge spun around and said, "I’m fine, can’t you see?"
"About your situation, Taiguo told , and about your identity too." Cheng Su’s eyes were complex.
Ning Ge’s smile faded slightly, then returned, "What, are you scared?"
Cheng Su shook her head, "Thank you."
Thank you for risking your life, for giving peace of mind, for allowing to live without worries.
"Hey, hey, it’s no fun pulling this trick!" Ning Ge feigned dissatisfaction.
Cheng Su stared at him silently.
Ning Ge gradually put away his roguish deanor and clicked his tongue, "You really are no fun. What I did wasn’t entirely for you. It was for the country. You were just incidental. So, don’t act like that; it makes feel uncomfortable."
Cheng Su couldn’t hold it in, giving him a glare. This person just couldn’t stand sentintal words.
"Hey, don’t be like that. Just a few words, and you’re upset!" Ning Ge chased after her, a smile lifting the corners of his mouth.
