After ONS: Trapped by the Cunning Professor-Chapter 296 - 297 Believe (6)

Lou Xi was diligently translating documents because Young Master Qin said they were needed urgently. She was consulting her phone for unfamiliar words. She thought she perhaps wasn’t this diligent even during her college entrance exams...

Watching Lou Xi work seriously, Qin Mobai’s lips curved slightly upwards as he took his phone and cigarette out of the living room.

He stood on the open balcony and lit a cigarette.

It was then that he made the phone call.

"Principal, it’s me, Qin Mobai." Qin Mobai said as he smoked and spoke with the principal of Nan University.

"Mo Bai, what’s the matter?" The principal’s tone carried a hint of surprise.

"Previously, I asked for your help to let me study at Nan University for a while, but due to personal reasons, I can’t continue. I’ve already found a replacement exchange student and considered all the issues."

The current situation was because he hadn’t considered thoroughly.

Now, all he could do was to try his best to minimize the damage, so Lou Xi could still be carefree like a little princess.

"Alright, since you’ve thought it through, let’s do as you suggested." The principal, of course, could only comply with Qin Mobai’s wishes, "If you have time, you can still come. The students in the club all enjoy having you exchange and study."

"Hmm, I’ll try to make time." Qin Mobai replied politely.

After hanging up, Qin Mobai stayed on the balcony to finish his cigarette; he didn’t want to smoke where Lou Xi was, as secondhand smoke is bad for her health.

But whenever he felt agitated, Qin Mobai always wanted to smoke one.

During the previous press conference, he was caught off guard with no way to retaliate, leaving Qin Mobai feeling uneasy.

He knew that Qin Sheng wanted him to marry Shen Ruozhuo not only because Shen Ruozhuo was knowledgeable, gentle, and virtuous but probably more so for a powerful alliance. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

After all, no one would think that a powerful alliance would have any downsides.

But he didn’t want to marry Shen Ruozhuo, and besides, she might not even want to marry him.

The crux of the matter now was that everyone knew Shen Ruozhuo was his fiancée, making Lou Xi’s presence seem unwarranted.

Qin Mobai had no other choice but to quickly annul the engagement with Shen Ruozhuo. At least this way, Lou Xi could rightfully become his girlfriend.

Yet, sometimes even the strongest people have moments of helplessness.

Lou Xi watched Qin Mobai from inside the window, feeling somewhat troubled in her heart.

If she had a powerful family and parents who cherished her, perhaps the Qin Family wouldn’t oppose their being together, and the person announcing an engagement with Qin Mobai at the press conference would be her?

Unfortunately, it wasn’t. She was just a child abandoned from a young age, raised in a family where affection was as thin as water, until she met a man who cherished her dearly.

"Young Master Qin, I will definitely strive for you to feel that being with me is the right choice!" Because she wanted to stand alongside Qin Mobai, no matter what they might face in the future, she wouldn’t back down.

...

The seven-day National Day holiday flew by quickly, and it seemed like Lou Xi was at home, entangled with Qin Mobai for several days.

However, many things truly happened in these days, probably heartaches that others might never experience in a lifetime.
