Chapter 316 You Can’t Meet Her

Day by day passed, and Dai Zhiqiang couldn't forget his encounter with Ye Huizhong. He searched for his name on the internet after that and found out that he had just dealt with a big fish.

'ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ No(v) e lBin ᴏɴʟʏ.',

Despite that, Dai Zhiqiang didn't have the intention to contact him unless it was very necessary.

Ye Huizhong's favor probably would become handy in the future, and he wanted to save it as much as he could.

For now, he was content that his father's surgery went well, and his life wasn't in danger anymore.

Although Dai Bolin would still need to be monitored and go through a series of other treatments, Dai Zhiqiang was optimistic that the rest of the money in Dai Bolin's bank account would be enough for everything.

Since they have fallen and gotten wet, they might as well swim in it.

A few weeks after that, Dai Zhiqiang finally returned to school. He had missed so many days, so by the time he arrived, everyone had already made their own groups and had no time to pay attention to him.

'This is good too, I guess. I should just go along with the flow.'

Thinking like that, he looked around to find an empty seat. He left as soon as the opening ceremony ended on the first day of school, so he still hadn't a designated seat yet.

Then, his eyes fell into a face he was familiar with. No, rather than calling it familiar, it was the only face he recognized out of all other faces in the room.

The same pair of big and clear eyes with silky black hair draped over her shoulder. She laughed happily with her friends as though she had just a funny joke. Her laugh was contagious, and it brought a smile to the others too.

As much as he wanted to go there and talk to that girl, he couldn't help but notice something different about that girl.

'She is…the same girl I met on the first day of school, right?'

Dai Zhiqiang remembered the girl as someone more timid and shy, not friendly and giving out popular vibes like that.

Although Dai Zhiqiang was skeptical, he still had to thank her properly for her help the other day. With that thought, he walked over to the girl, surrounded by many people.

'Visit (No ve (l)B i n) to read, pls!',

His presence was like a rock disrupting the flow. The conversation suddenly halted when they realized his appearance.

Not only because that might be their first time seeing him after the entrance ceremony but also because his gaze was fixed on one person only.

It caught everyone off guard, including the girl who currently blinked at him in confusion. She didn't understand why he only stood there staring at her and became self-conscious.

"Eh, you are Dai Zhiqiang, right? Can we help you with something?" She asked awkwardly.

The moment he heard her voice, he was almost sure that she was a different girl with the glasses he had met before. That tone full of confidence couldn't possibly come from the same girl from that time.

But still, he should make sure, just in case.

"Have we met before?"

Dai Zhiqiang ignored the commotion around him and only focused on her answer. The only thing that stopped him from feeling 100% certain was the fact that this girl had the exact same face as the timid girl.

'A twins?'

That was the only reasonable explanation he could come up with.

"Hm, I don't think we've ever met before? I think you mistook me for someone else."

"I'm pretty sure I have met you before. In fact, you helped me once."

'The latest_epi_sodes are on_the Nov elB i n website.',

"Hmm," The girl made a meaningful hum before continuing, "I think you are mistaking me for my twin. Did she wear glasses and have ponytails?"

Dai Zhiqiang nodded, and the girl's smile deepened. "Nice to meet you. My name is Li Chunhua, and we will be classmates from now on."

"Nice to meet you. If you don't mind, can you tell me which class your sister is in? I want to thank her properly."

"Guys, can I talk with him privately for a bit. Let's continue our conversation a bit, okay?" Li Chunhua said to her friends, and they nodded without question.

After they left, Li Chunhua shifted his gaze back at him. Although she was smiling, Dai Zhiqiang could feel the prickling stab in her eyes as she looked at him.

"You said you want to talk with my sister? There is no need because I can send your regards to her."

"But still, I want to thank her myself."

"I said that's not necessary. My sister is an extremely good person, and she helps people frequently. You are no different from others, so I doubt she will even remember you."

There was a sense of hostility under her words, and Dai Zhiqing could tell he wasn't welcomed. He was too familiar with that condescending and disapproving gaze given by people who looked down on him and his family background.

Li Chunhua added, "On that note, I hope you won't appear carelessly in front of my sister since she is timid and scared of people she doesn't know. If you have something to say to her, just pass the message to me. That's the least you can do to repay her help, isn't that right?"

Dai Zhiqiang didn't know how to reply. That was probably his first time taking the initiative to talk to a girl first, yet he was shut off immediately.

He wasn't sure how to proceed from this. If he insisted, wouldn't he become like a creep here?

Dai Zhiqiang recalled the glasses girl from the other day.

There was a tingling sensation in his chest, knowing that the girl probably didn't remember him. Even though she was the only reason he even had the slightest intention to go back to school faster.

'What is this unpleasant feeling?'

"Hey, are you even listening? Answer me if you understand." Li Chunhua put both of her hands to her hips while pouting.

It was supposed to be enough to make any guy melt at her cuteness, but unfortunately, Dai Zhiqiang wasn't affected by such things.

"Is there really no other way? I want to talk with her if I can." Dai Zhiqiang replied hesitantly.

"I already said there is no need for that." Li Chunhua frowned slightly. "Why are you so persistent? Are you perhaps having some kind of ulterior motive towards her? And everything about her helping you is just an excuse?"

Faced with Li Chunhua's suspicious gaze, Dai Zhiqiang sighed helplessly. It seemed he was indeed acting like a creep here.

Even he couldn't understand himself. He should have felt thankful for Li Chunhua for making his job easier, but why didn't he feel happy when he knew he wasn't allowed to meet her?
