Hai Xiaotang paused as she was slicing bacon.

She knew that Mama Zhang had misunderstood her, thinking that something had happened between her and Dongfang Yu last night.

But nothing had happened at all.

Dongfang Yu had just turned into a dog and bit her all night long!

But she couldn’t explain these things.

After breakfast, Hai Xiaotang left the house.

She needed to finalize her plans to study abroad and leave here as soon as possible.

And the only one who could help her was her grandfather.

But the old man refused without a second thought when she expressed her request.

“No, studying abroad is not an option. If you want to study, go to a university in CCity.”

Hai Xiaotang had anticipated her grandfather’s response, so she had prepared her argument in advance.

“Grandfather, my biggest skill is foreign languages. That’s the only thing I’m really good at. Studying abroad would give me the opportunity to play to my strengths.”

“Not able to master your native knowledge, and yet you still want to go abroad to learn someone else’s knowledge?” The old man shook his head resolutely. “Overseas is not the place for you. You are not allowed to go.”

“Grandfather, I really want to go. Please let me. I’ll only be there for a year, just one year!” Hai Xiaotang pleaded earnestly.

But how could Hai Zhiyuan not know her little trick?

And, how could she ever match wits with her grandfather?

“Xiaotang, it’s not that I don’t want to support you. I’m already 80 years old. I don’t know how many years I have left. If you go for a year, that’s one year I won’t see you. What if I pass away during that year… I won’t be able to see you again.”

Hearing these words, Hai Xiaotang felt her eyes well up with tears. She immediately shook her head. “Grandfather, I won’t go then! I’ll stay in C City with you. I won’t go anywhere else!”

“Good, we’ll stay in C City. I will help you find a good school as soon as possible so that you can continue your studies,” The old man assured her with a pleased yet cunning smile.

Just like that, Hai Xiaotang easily gave up on the idea of studying abroad…

She didn’t stay at the old house for long before she left again.

Today was Saturday, and she had made plans to have dinner with Qiao Ning.

This lifetime, she wanted to be friends with Qiao Ning, to make up for her past life’s guilt towards her.

Luckily, they got along very well.

Qiao Ning was also more than happy to be her friend.

They agreed to meet at a fancy restaurant where a meal could cost several thousands of yuan.

After sitting down, Qiao Ning hesitated and said, “Xiaotang, we don’t have to eat here. We could grab a bite anywhere.”

Hai Xiaotang was the one treating this time, so Qiao Ning was worried about her spending too much.

Hai Xiaotang laughed, “This is the first time I’ve ever taken you out for a meal, of course, it must be someplace good. We can’t just grab a bite anywhere.”

“But this place is really expensive. I don’t need to eat anything so expensive.”

“Don’t worry, eat whatever you want. You won’t make me poor.” Hai Xiaotang rarely spent money; she had saved up a lot of her pocket money.

Moreover, Dongfang Yu had forced her to accept that black card last night.

If necessary, she would use his money. It’s not like he cared, so she didn’t mind splurging!

Qiao Ning could tell that Hai Xiaotang was well-off. She smiled and said, “Even so, we shouldn’t splurge too extravagantly.”

“You helped me on the plane, and I appreciate your friendship so much, no matter how expensive it is, it’s worth it.” Hai Xiaotang handed her the menu, “Order whatever you want, and don’t worry about the cost.”

She really wanted to treat her to a good meal.

“Alright then, I won’t hold back.” Qiao Ning ordered a few dishes that were reasonable in price — not too expensive, but not too cheap either. They also tasted pretty good.
