At the dinner table, there were also lots of dishes she loved.
As a result, after eating one meal, Hai Xiaotang was looking forward to the next.
Dinner was finally served, but, lo and behold, Dongfang Yu also showed up.
Even Hai Zhiyuan was surprised to see him show up again.
“Grandfather, I came to check if the dishes Chef Jin made suit your palate,” he said, making up a rather lame excuse.
Hai Zhiyuan beamed, “They suit it perfectly. Not only do I enjoy them, but Xiaotang does as well.”
Hai Xiaotang felt awkward and embarrassed for no apparent reason.
It was unnecessary for Grandfather to mention her.
Dongfang Yu chuckled: “Indeed, his cooking is delicious. Our entire family loves it.”
“Ayu, have you eaten yet? If not, let’s eat together,” the old man promptly invited him. After all, the least he could do was show some courtesy after snatching away such a good cook.
Without declining, Dongfang Yu sat down and said, “I’ve been so busy that I haven’t had a chance to eat Chef Jin’s food in a while.”
The old man laughed heartily and courteously replied: “Whenever you want, feel free to come over.”
“Sure.” Dongfang Yu nodded with a smile.
For some reason, Hai Xiaotang didn’t think his reply was a mere courtesy.
Maybe… he would really start coming frequently!
After another dinner together, Dongfang Yu sat with the old man for a while before leaving.
This time, Hai Xiaotang did not see him off. After the meal, she headed straight upstairs, making it clear that she was upset with him and hoping he would take the hint and not come again.
But, to her surprise, he showed up again on the third day!
Dongfang Yu had never visited three days in a row before!
Even a fool could see something was aloof.
This time, he came to deliver Hai Xiaotang’s admission notice.
An admission notice for the Architecture and Design major at C University!
Hai Xiaotang looked at the notice in shock; her name was written on it, along with her ID photo…
C University is a leading university nationwide and the most famous one in C City.
Many people try their utmost but still fail to get in, yet Dongfang Yu managed to get her —someone who hadn’t even written the entrance exam— an admission notice. His influence was truly immense.
She knew he was rich but didn’t think he could pull off something like this.
Hai Zhiyuan was just as surprised, “Ayu, how did you manage this?”
Dongfang Yu casually replied, “All the scholarships for the Architecture and Design major at C University are funded by our Dongfang company. Some professors also hold posts at Dongfang, and many research projects are funded by our company, so the government has granted me some privileges.”
That privilege seemed too significant.
Even a poor student could get into a top university, without even having to sit exams!
Hai Xiaotang didn’t want to owe him such a big favor, so she handed back the admission notice, “Thank you for your kindness, but I’m not interested in this major.”
Dongfang Yu didn’t get upset. “Then what are you interested in?” he asked. “C University offers a broad range of majors. However, Architecture and Design is the best.”
“I have no interest in studying at all; I want to join the army!” Hai Xiaotang deliberately said, “I don’t like using my brain. Instead, I enjoy physical activities. I think I would be a good fit for the army.”
Hai Zhiyuan cautioned her, “Xiaotang, being in the army isn’t a joke. It might be too tough for you.”
She argued back in ragin passion, “Grandfather, I’m not afraid. I like soldiers like you and besides, we’ve been, a military family for generations. I want to carry on and uphold that legacy.”
Dongfang Yu listened expressionlessly.
He liked soldiers, huh?
He gave a faint smile, hinting ominously, “I advise you better not go, or else….”
