In truth, Rong Qi was quite puzzled. In the past, even though Rong Tianshi was always eager to gain something from her, he still had an air of superiority, and the two of them had a mutual dislike for each other.
But now, Rong Tianshi had come to Rong Qi twice in quick succession, showing goodwill both times, yet he hadn’t stated his purpose. It was quite baffling for Rong Qi.
Seeing Rong Qi’s scrutinizing gaze, Rong Tianshi felt slight discomfort, and the suppressed anger within him couldn’t help but flicker. He said, “What’s with that look? Do you think I have ulterior motives for you?”
Rong Qi didn’t say anything, but her expression spoke volumes.
Rong Tianshi sighed, feeling somewhat helpless in the face of his aloof daughter. He said, “I just came here to see you, purely out of curiosity. You’ve been at this university for a while, but I’ve never seen you. So…”
So Rong Tianshi had bought boba tea, a favorite among girls, to see Rong Qi, but she didn’t appreciate it. He felt disappointed.
Rong Tianshi asked, “What do you usually like to eat or drink? Tell me, and I’ll buy it for you next time I visit.”
Rong Qi lowered her head for a moment of silence. Then, she said, “It’s okay. We’re not close. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back to class now, Mr. Rong.”
With that, Rong Qi took a step forward and walked into the classroom.
Rong Tianshi’s face turned stiff, and he looked somewhat dejected. He shook his head in disappointment. Before he could say a word, his phone rang.
Rong Qi furrowed her brow and walked slowly.
Then, Rong Tianshi took out his phone and picked up the call.
“What? I’ll be right there! Don’t let them step into the company,” Rong Tianshi said.
Rong Tianshi sighed, feeling somewhat frustrated. He hung up the call and said to Rong Qi, “You should head back to class and study hard. 1’11 visit you another day.”
With that, Rong Tianshi turned to leave. However, just as he was about to turn away, he suddenly remembered the boba tea he was holding in his hand.
Rong Tianshi quickly turned back and handed it to Rong Qi. He said, “Take it. Drink it if you want, or throw it away if you don’t.”
After saying that, Rong Tianshi hurriedly left.
Rong Qi paused for a moment, watching Rong Tianshi’s gradually disappearing figure, her heart filled with mixed emotions.
Once Rong Qi entered the classroom, she casually handed the boba tea to Lu Qi and said, “Here, I don’t want it.”
‘A sudden gift of boba tea, was such a stroke of good luck possible?’ Lu Qi thought.
Lu Qi was touched and said, “Thank you, Seven. It’s exactly what 1 need right now. This question is too difficult. Are you some kind of genius? You actually scored a perfect grade!”
Lu Qi sipped the boba tea vigorously, finding some comfort for her bruised ego amid the torment of difficult questions. She said,” Seven, I curse the day I chose finance. If I had known this would happen, 1 might as well have gone back to herd cows. Studying is too tough for me!”
Rong Qi chuckled.
Before Rong Qi could respond, Huang Hao, who was sitting behind her, unexpectedly said bluntly on Lu Qi’s parade, “Herd cows? If you went back, you’d just be fulfilling your stepmother’s wishes. When you go back to herd cows, she’ll have your stepsister study finance to inherit the family business, and you’d be fuming.”
Lu Qi turned to glare at Huang Hao and said, “Hmph, even if I go back to herd cows, I’ll keep the cows in their bedroom.”
“Haha, spare me. Don’t you know that the first thing you do every day when you come to class is complain to us? If you really have some skill, you should learn from Rong Qi. Look at her, not only did she incapacitate her stepsister without a scratch, she even made that heartless scumbag of a father change his mind and buy boba tea to make amends. That’s impressive.” Huang Hao smirked.
Lu Qi widened her eyes, trying to glare Huang Hao to death.. But then she realized what he just said and asked Rong Qi, “What? Is this from your deadbeat dad?”
