CHAPTER 306: CHAPTER 307: THE COLLEGE ENTRANCE EXAM APPROACHES (PART 1)

Chu Zhan’s face suddenly turned cold, "Chu Huan, have some shame when you speak. The marriage between you and Tingyan was just the adults’ casual talk, and Tingyan himself doesn’t even know about it.

Whether he agrees or not is one thing, but why are you eagerly messing around? Don’t forget you’re about to take the high-stakes exam, you’re still a young girl not even of age, always thinking of developing feelings with a man, aren’t you embarrassed?"

Chu Huan’s eyes turned red with tears, "I, I always liked Brother Tingyan, you know that. Normally you don’t say anything, so why are you talking about it today..."

Chu Zhan was surprised too, indeed, he usually didn’t concern himself with these matters of romance. Chu Huan liking Tingyan had nothing to do with him.

But after finding out about the relationship between Nianyang and Li Tingyan, he inexplicably didn’t want it to be disrupted by Chu Huan.

"Zhan’er, Xiaohuan is your sister, why are you being so harsh?" Yunrou glanced angrily at Chu Zhan, hurriedly patting Chu Huan’s back to console her, attempting to calm her down.

Although Chu Huan was not her biological child, Yunrou had raised her like her own daughter since childhood. She truly loved Chu Huan as her daughter.

"Mom, I’m fine. He’s my brother, so I won’t be mad at him."

Chu Huan said deliberately understandingly because she knew she was adopted by the Chu Family, and she was very mature for her age.

She understood how to gauge people’s feelings. Chu Zhan was the pure bloodline of the Chu Family, and she was adopted. Although the Chu couple spoiled her, she couldn’t afford to have conflicts with Chu Zhan, or she’d be seen as immature.

So, no matter when, she could only pretend to be aggrieved and silently endure, to get more love from the Chu Family.

When Nianyang returned to school, the atmosphere became relaxed and normal again.

Li Tingyan and the others had rescued the victimized female students, which brought a sigh of relief to everyone.

Now they didn’t have to worry about any incidents and could continue studying peacefully for the high-stakes exam.

To express gratitude to Li Tingyan and the others, the school hung banners across various school buildings thanking them.

The principal was so enthusiastic that he wanted to hold a school-wide gratitude assembly for Li Tingyan and his team but was flatly refused by Li Tingyan.

They were just doing their normal professional duty, and causing such a stir might lead to reprimands from their superiors.

★

Nianyang had taken leave from school for those two days, so no one at the school knew the crisis was mainly resolved due to Nianyang.

When asked by Luo Lanzhen and Jiang Tian about her whereabouts during those days, Nianyang smiled, hiding her achievements, and casually found an excuse to brush it off.

That night, Li Tingyan and his team left the school.

By the time Nianyang found out, Li Tingyan was already on the train back to Pingjing, calling her.

"Tingyan, are you heading back to Pingjing again?" Nianyang’s eyes dimmed, "Didn’t you agree to stay with me until the high-stakes exam..."

The word "liar" lingered at the edge of her lips but was ultimately swallowed by Nianyang. No matter how upset she was, she understood Li Tingyan’s identity, that duty to the company came first, and that many things were beyond his control.

But although everyone understands these reasons, truly comprehending them is quite difficult, especially since the high-stakes exam was her most crucial life turning point, so she naturally hoped Li Tingyan could be there to witness it.

Li Tingyan sensed the grievance and dissatisfaction in his wife’s tone and immediately apologized,

"Sorry, Nini. I originally planned to stay with you, but my boss called me and asked me to return immediately to prepare for next month’s promotion meeting."
