Chapter 227: Nothing Much, Just Gonna Make You Go To h.e.l.l! (13)
Daniel extended his hand to stop him before turning around and walking to his desk to print an expulsion letter which he then sealed with an official school stamp.
“I don’t think you’re suitable for our college.”
Shaking his head in disappointment, Daniel left while Luo Shaodong held onto the legal letter in his left hand and the expulsion letter in his right.
He crushed the letters and slammed them onto the ground before striding away while gritting his teeth angrily.
…
Luo Anning only woke up in the afternoon. No longer sleepy, she got out of bed to wash up and change into a fresh set of clothes before heading downstairs for breakfast.
To her surprise, she ran into Catherine in the hotel!
Catherine clearly disliked her. She nodded and took it as a greeting, after which she walked past Luo Anning who turned around to call her and stop her in her tracks. “Catherine…”
Upon hearing her call, Catherine stopped and turned around. “What’s the matter?”
She sounded composed with no tinge of animosity.
Luo Anning knew how cold and aloof Catherine was by nature and hence, did not mind her standoffish reply. Recalling how Kristen disappeared without an explanation at the restaurant previously, Luo Anning asked curiously, “Where did Kristen go to?”
Catherine frowned and remained silent for a while before saying, “Kristen is out on a business trip. If you need to see him for something, you may feel free to tell me. I’ll relay your message to him.”
“Well… Nah, I just haven’t contacted him in a while so I’m a little worried.”
“He’s doing very well, you don’t have to worry.” Catherine nodded again and said, “Miss Luo, if there’s nothing else, goodbye.”
“Goodbye.”
Seeing that Catherine had left swiftly, Luo Anning wondered to herself in bewilderment. Kristen’s and Catherine’s jobs have always puzzled her.
When she stayed in their apartment, they would leave at night and return in the morning, and their schedules were irregular too. She had also asked Kristen about their profession but he would often miraculously change the topic.
Otherwise, he would cast the question back at her, making her guess what his job was.
Luo Anning was speechless, but she did not continue probing.
“What are you looking at? You seem so distracted.” She was pulled into a familiar embrace. Rong Yan raised her chin and gazed at her.
Luo Anning pushed him away shyly. Although there were very few patrons in the restaurant, Rong Yan’s appearance caught everyone’s attention.
Seeing the slight displeasure on Rong Yan’s face, Luo Anning held onto his hand and brought him towards the seats. “I happened to run into someone I know so I chatted for a while.”
s.h.i.+fting his gaze onto their interlocked fingers, Rong Yan asked happily with a grin, “Was it a male or a female?”
Luo Anning scrutinized him and stroked her chin while saying solemnly, “Young Master Rong, are you running a background check?”
Rong Yan said with raised brows, “I thought I was being obvious enough.”
Luo Anning placed a hand on her forehead and thought, fine, it’s not my first day knowing him anyway. I should have gotten used to his rules.
“It was a female, the lady I used to stay with in the apartment.”
Upon hearing that it was a lady and not a man, Rong Yan decided to stop asking and instead called for the waiter to begin ordering.
After ordering his food, he looked up and asked her, “What would you like to have?”
Luo Anning supported her chin with one hand and said, “Anything, I’m not a picky eater.”
She then stared at Rong Yan ambiguously. She knew how picky he could be!
