seventeen again the sweet life with my family

Chapter 19

Just as Huang Yue was trying her best to find out Wei Xiao’s contact information, she received an unfamiliar call during her afternoon break. “Hello?”

“Are you Huang Yue?”

The Wei Corporation was considered a leading company in Hai City, and Wei Xiao was regarded as the young master of the city. Huang Yue’s family was nouveau riche, and Huang Jian had only just managed to gain entry to that circle. Huang Yue had only been brought to experience it twice. The first time she had come into contact with Wei Xiao was when she had helped Wen Nian take the gift box.

Although they had only met a few times, Wei Xiao’s voice was almost engraved into the DNA by Huang Yue. Huang Yue, who was already in a daze, instantly woke up and asked tentatively, “Young Master Wei?”

Wei Xiao’s voice sounded again. “It’s me.”

Huang Yue was so excited that she immediately sat up and saw her two sleeping dormitory mates. After contemplating for a moment, she quietly slipped out of the dormitory and into the corridor. She then asked Wei Xiao with concern, “Young Master Wei, I heard that you went overseas to study?”

When Wei Xiao thought about how he had been forced to go overseas this time, his mood worsened. His grandfather had taught him a lesson, so he was living on a budget like an ordinary international student. His food and daily necessities couldn’t compare to what he was used to back home.

The lack of a driver and servants meant that he had to purchase his own meals three times a day. Wei Xiao, who was accustomed to the life of a prince, did not have the habit of doing things for himself.

Wei Xiao took all his suffering to heart, realizing that he wouldn’t have ended up in this state if it weren’t for her. He couldn’t just let it go.

Wei Xiao had always presented himself as an elegant gentleman to the outside world, and he suppressed his anger as he replied gently, “Yes, I have been overseas for a week. I left in a hurry because of something. I realized that I didn’t have time to exchange contact details with you at the last banquet, so I wanted to call you after I settled down.”

“Huang Yue was not bad looking and she portrayed a gentle image. However, in Wei Xiao’s eyes, Huang Yue was akin to someone who, like himself, could be easily controlled and was perceived as such by Wei Feng.””

Although he had only spoken to her once, Wei Xiao could still tell what Huang Yue was thinking at a glance. At the time, he thought it would be a waste not to use the helper who came knocking on his door. Moreover, since she was Wen Nian’s friend, he guided her. As expected, Huang Yue took over the matter very actively. However, Wei Xiao did not expect the situation to change so much over the weekend.

Even though the engagement was called off, the matter of Wen Nian causing his departure in a sorry state would not be easily resolved. Wei Xiao recalled the chess piece he had arranged before leaving the country, which was why he made this call.

They chatted for a while, during which Huang Yue brought up Wen Nian’s refusal to enter the entertainment industry and the manager she had arranged could not be used. Although Wei Xiao was secretly calling Huang Yue useless, he still comforted her after her setback.

Since he already knew the answer, Wei Xiao didn’t want to waste any more time. He looked at his watch coldly and said in an apologetic tone, “I’m really sorry. I suddenly remembered that it’s lunchtime in China. Get some rest first.”

Huang Yue didn’t expect Wei Xiao to notice this small detail. Not only was he rich, he was considerate. Huang Yue was even more determined to take Wei Xiao down. After hanging up, she returned to the dormitory briskly.

After the second lesson in the afternoon, Wen Nian took out her phone during the break to look up information. Only then did she see a message from her mother two hours ago. She said that she and her father were going back to their hometown and would be back in two days. She asked Wen Nian to take good care of herself.

There was something that Wen Nian had forgotten after her rebirth. At this moment, she suddenly remembered and hurriedly ran to ask Li Fang for a leave of absence. If it was a leave of absence due to some other reasons, her parents would have to call the head teacher. She could only apply for a leave of absence herself if it was due to illness.

Her parents would definitely not agree to her taking leave and going back with them to her hometown for no reason. Wen Nian could not explain it clearly now, so she could only pretend to be sick.

Wen Nian was quite familiar with pretending to be sick. Occasionally, there would be people in the prison who would use these tricks to get a chance to laze around. It would be fine if the prison guards didn’t find out, but if they found out, they would make you experience the joy of doing double the work.

Wen Nian used a small trick to increase the temperature of her forehead. Then, she went to the teacher’s office and coughed from time to time.

It was time to test Wen Nian’s acting skills. Her voice was weak. “Mr. Li, I have a fever. I would like to request a leave of absence from you to visit the clinic for a prescription of medicine. I don’t think I can make it for the evening self-study session.”
