When Fu Zhilei saw Fu Zhengyao returning, she hurriedly went up to him and tugged at his arm. "Dad, didn't you say that you would let Yanqing marry me this time?"
Fu Zhengyao patted the back of his daughter's hand and comforted her softly. "Zhilei, there are many men who are better than Yanqing. Dad will give you …"
"I don't want anyone else. I just want him," Fu Zhilei said with red eyes.
"You saw it too. He already has someone by his side." Fu Zhengyao's tone became harsher. "You should give up on this thought as soon as possible."
"I don't care. Yanqing is mine. No one can snatch him away from me. If you don't help me, I have my own ways to get him back." Fu Zhilei let go of Fu Zhengyao and ran upstairs crying.
After the car drove out of the carved iron gate, Shuxin said to Song Li in the driver's seat, "Secretary Song, please send me back to the hotel."
Song Li glanced at Huo Yanqing through the rearview mirror. Seeing that he didn't object, he smiled and said, "Okay."
The car stopped in front of the hotel Shuxin was staying at. Shuxin greeted Huo Yanqing and was about to get out of the car when Huo Yanqing said, "Pack your things and come down. I'll wait for you here. We'll go back to Fan City together."
Shuxin hurriedly refused. "It's okay. I can go back by myself. I don't want to trouble you, Fifth Uncle."
"Be good." Huo Yanqing's gentle voice was tinged with a hint of unbeknownst to him.
Shuxin's heart tightened. Why did he speak to her in such a tone? She was prone to letting her imagination run wild, okay?
Shuxin looked away and glanced out of the window. Then she lowered her head and looked at her hands. She tried to keep her voice calm. "I still have something to deal with. I won't be returning to Fan City now."
The man beside her didn't speak. Shuxin said again, "Fifth Uncle, I'll go down first."
After a few seconds. "… Okay."
Song Li watched as Shuxin entered the hotel. He couldn't help but whisper to Huo Yanqing, "The Fifth Lord, why do I feel that Miss Shuxin is avoiding you?"
Huo Yanqing thought of the kiss the night before.... She was probably frightened by him.
She was still young. and he was too impatient.
Huo Yanqing sighed softly, leaned back in the chair, and closed his eyes. "Let's go."
Song Li didn't dare to say anything more. He turned the car around and left.
When Shu Xin returned to her room, she received a call from Wang Dongliang. The results of the competition had been announced online this morning. Wang Dongliang was very satisfied with Shu Xin's victory. He praised her over the phone. Shu Xin could feel the excitement in his words through the phone.
Then, he asked her when she was going back and said that the school would hold a commendation ceremony for her.
Shuxin thought that it was rare for her to come to the capital. She couldn't miss this opportunity to befriend Shen Aoteng. "I'll be back in the afternoon."
Wang Dongliang said thoughtfully, "Then you should rest at home for the day. I've arranged for the ceremony to be held at nine in the morning the day after tomorrow."
Shuxin replied politely, "Thank you, Principal."
Wang Dongliang couldn't help but praise Shuxin again before hanging up.
Shuxin packed her things and left the hotel.
Although she didn't know how to contact Shen Aoteng.
Shuxin remembered that Shen Aoteng had graduated from T University in the capital. She could go to T University directly to look for him.
The taxi stopped at the entrance of T University. Shuxin paid the fare and got out. She told the guard that she had met Shen Aoteng at the architectural design competition yesterday. They had agreed to discuss design together, but she had forgotten to leave their contact details. She also showed the guard the design award she had won yesterday.
