"Luo Huai, I'm going to country D on a business trip tomorrow night, you..."

"I overheard it at the dinner table," Luo Huai said with a hint of worry. "Going on a business trip on his very first day in office, won't that cause some problems?"

How could Xing Yanzhao not know?

It just so happened that there was something going on in Country D, so he readily agreed.

"What big problem could there be? I spent four years abroad before."

"where?"

"Country Y."

“It’s different. The language of Y country isn’t widely used in D country.” Luo Huai paused for a moment, then asked, “Can you take me with you?”

Xing Yanzhao raised an eyebrow and smiled roguishly: "So reluctant to part with it?"

“No,” Luo Huai said seriously. “The minor language I studied is the language of country D, and I have already passed the C2 level.”

C2 is already at the master's or doctoral level of academic research, and Xing Yanzhao's interest intensified. "Have you decided on your senior year internship?"

"I'll finish writing my two papers this semester, and then next semester."

“You can try working at Chaoye Technology. Kuangye works there. I used to deliver goods to their clients. They said Chaoye Technology has good benefits, especially the annual meeting where they give out cash.”

Luo Huai wasn't thinking about that. She nodded and asked, "Can't I go?"

"I still have a foot injury, so I'm staying at home."

Ok.

Luo Huai remained silent for a while, then offered another suggestion: "There are simultaneous interpretation headsets available; you can buy one as a backup."

Although Luo Huai said it wasn't that she was reluctant to part with him, she was still somewhat concerned. He suddenly had an idea: "I don't know where to buy it, could you buy it for me?"

Luo Huai thought of his past hardships and how little he had been exposed to these things, and nodded.

Ningcheng is a bustling city with all kinds of cutting-edge technology products. She bought it that night and it arrived the next day.

Xing Yanzhao took the things. "I don't know when I'll be back. If anything happens, call Kuangye and the old lady. The old lady will know it's you."

The tall man bent down.

They embraced unexpectedly, and then let go just as unexpectedly.

Luo Huai stood there for a long time.

I don't understand what this means.

I understand now, it's normal for couples to hug.

"Okay." Luo Huai nodded, noticing two more phone numbers appearing on his phone.

An hour later, Luo Huai received a message on his phone.

Click to listen.

"I've arrived at the airport. I'll let you know after I get off the plane."

It looks very similar to a report.

The man's voice was as pleasant as ever, though a little hoarse.

He must have been smoking.

Luo Huai typed a reply while thinking.

“It’s good again.” Xing Yanzhao casually twirled his phone, then turned to ask Kuang Ye, who had come to the airport to see him off, “How come she’s even harder to teach than you? You couldn’t even get a fart out of your mouth back then.”

The wilderness remained silent: "Because you're not familiar with each other yet."

Xing Yanzhao: "We've been married for half a month."

"That's only been half a month. What do you expect in half a month?"

"Can't we hit it off immediately?"

"You're just a substitute, aren't you? You're no different from a peacock displaying its feathers right now. Don't you understand the importance of taking things slowly?" Kuangye scolded him.

“I don’t understand.” Xing Yanzhao had his own theory. “If I go slowly, will I still be able to get anything? On our wedding day, if I had gone even slower, I wouldn’t have been able to squeeze Pei Yuanzhou out of my way. If I had taken things slowly, Pei Yuanzhou would have remained in her heart like a lump of mud, impossible to remove.”

Kuangye gave him a thumbs up.

Ambitious.

Kuangye gave his brother a hug and said, "The two things you confessed to are already under investigation."

……

Luo Huai stayed in the room, preparing to continue writing his thesis. He found his laptop bag, opened it, and discovered that the laptop he touched was wet.

When I pulled it out, I saw water droplets dripping from the edge of the computer onto the table.

The inside of the laptop bag was already soaked.

Her thesis!

A computer that has gotten wet cannot be turned on casually. Luo Huai wiped it dry with a tissue, thinking that he hadn't touched the computer for three or four days. After being soaked in water for so long, even a god couldn't save it.

Only the servants entered their room, but why?

Why did you soak her computer completely and then put it in her laptop bag to keep it warm?

No wonder I didn't notice it at first.

The first draft that I had worked so hard to finish was gone just like that.

She has encountered many instances of not saving her homework while doing it at school, but she always takes it calmly, thinking it's okay and she can just write it again.

Rewriting content that has already been written will be faster than the first time.

At this moment, Luo Huai also wanted to calmly tell himself that he could just write more; he had a whole semester to go.

The more I tried to convince myself, the harder it became to suppress the dull pain in my chest.

There have been too many things that have happened in the past month.

A substitute bride.

She was kept in the dark again on her wedding day.

The person she loved turned out to be the one who hurt her, and kept appearing in front of her again and again.

Instead of showing concern for her, they appeared before her repeatedly to criticize her and speak on behalf of others.

Collapse often happens in an instant.

Luo Huai clenched his fists and impulsively grabbed his computer and headed back to the Xing family home, ignoring the torn toes he had torn from walking too fast.

She put the computer on the table and asked who had just cleaned their room.

His heavy gaze swept over the servant.

The maid swallowed hard and smiled, "Young Madam, is there a problem?"

"What's wrong with my computer? There's so much water in my laptop bag."

The maid avoided eye contact. Didn't the second young mistress say that the eldest young mistress was easy to bully and wouldn't she really be punished?

"I, I don't know."

The servant decided to play dumb.

Just then, Pei Youyou and Xing Yurou returned, and the maid looked over with pleading eyes.

Luo Huai turned around following the gaze.

“It’s you.” She said calmly.

Pei Youyou never paid her any attention. Noticing the computer on the table, she smiled and asked, "What happened? Did someone accidentally break your computer?"

The maid looked on in astonishment.

What does "second young mistress" mean?

Are you not planning to protect her?

"Pei Youyou, it was you who had someone break my computer."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I haven't been in your room. Whoever has been in your room, go find them and settle the score." Pei Youyou sneered. "Don't start slandering me as soon as you open your mouth."

She yawned and headed upstairs.

The maid standing nearby turned pale and immediately admitted her mistake: "It's not my fault, the second young mistress told me to do it."

Pei Youyou was taken aback.

No servant in the Pei family dared to name her.

Even Luo Huai, who was in the Pei family, dared not accuse her of the bad things she had done.

For a moment she forgot that this was the Xing family home.

"What nonsense are you spouting!" Pei Youyou panicked for a moment, then glared fiercely at the servant.

Seeing her expression and remembering how she had scolded her that day, Xing Yuru stepped back and asked, "Second sister-in-law, is it really you?"

"No!" Pei Youyou said, "Don't listen to a servant's nonsense. Luo Huai, if you say it was me, then show me the evidence!"

If she doesn't acknowledge it, then it's not her.

Even with surveillance cameras, you can't hear what she and the maid are saying; you can only see them whispering to each other.

Pei Youyou straightened her back and continued to climb.

Luo Huai was still on the verge of collapse, so he rushed forward and reached out to pull her back.

Pei Youyou fell down the third step of the stairs.

"Second Young Madam!"

"Second sister-in-law!"

Within ten minutes, the matter even alarmed the Pei family.
