Wu Taotao invited Ye Ningwan to visit her school. Having been enrolled for two weeks, she’s gotten a preliminary understanding of the school. Jiangcheng University is both big and beautiful; she absolutely had to invite her best friend over to broaden her horizons. Ye Ningwan couldn’t refuse this demanding little pixie, so she had to agree, and Housekeeper Wu sent a driver to bring her over. "Why do you still have dark circles?" Wu Taotao immediately asked Ye Ningwan in surprise as soon as she saw her. Ye Ningwan touched her own eyes. She hadn’t slept well the whole night yesterday, so it would be surprising if she didn’t have dark circles. "It’s fine, I just didn’t sleep well last night." "Isn’t it because you used those tactics from the novels I gave you on Zhan Hanjue?" Wu Taotao winked ambiguously. Ye Ningwan knocked her on the forehead: "Put away those messy thoughts." Wu Taotao stuck out her tongue and led her around the school for a tour. With Ye Ningwan’s appearance and temperament, walking around the school made her the most beautiful moving scenery, attracting countless glances. Wu Taotao proudly introduced her as her best friend to people. Seeing her arrogant and smug look, Ye Ningwan shook her head, seriously suspecting that she was brought over just to boost Wu Taotao’s popularity. "Hello, Miss Ke." On the way, they encountered a middle-aged woman dressed in a black office suit, wearing black-framed glasses, and even her high heels were black. Wu Taotao quickly pulled Ye Ningwan along to greet her and respectfully called her "Miss Ke." Miss Ke nodded with a cold face and walked away expressionlessly. Wu Taotao waited until she was far away to straighten up and take a breath, patting her little chest. "What’s wrong, is this teacher very strict?" Ye Ningwan asked. Actually, without asking, it’s easy to guess. Dressed like this, she is clearly a teacher with a rigid and rigorous personality. Students like Wu Taotao, who are lively, are definitely a thorn in her side,. "Not just rigid, she’s practically the end of fun," Wu Taotao shook her head. "Aren’t you in the art department? Aren’t the teachers there all about romantic artistry?" Ye Ningwan was curious. Such a rigid and serious teacher doesn’t seem like an art department teacher, more like someone engaged in scientific research. "I’ve heard she wasn’t like this before; she used to be a student at this school. She was adorable and stylish in school, and pretty too. After graduation, she stayed on to teach and was voted the most beautiful teacher in the first year," Wu Taotao gossiped. "Then why did she become like this now? Let me guess, a heartbreak. When a woman undergoes such a major change, it’s often because of love," Ye Ningwan asserted. "Smart," Wu Taotao snapped her fingers: "It’s said she had a lover who was a married man. Their relationship was discovered, and she was severely beaten by his wife, ordered never to dress up again, otherwise she’d be beaten each time. So, she turned into this." Ye Ningwan shook her head, such an outdated story. "We’ll have lunch at the school, then I’ll find my brother and he’ll treat us," Wu Taotao added. Ye Ningwan nodded. Wu Taotao, curious, asked when she saw her lack of interest, "Still upset about Zhan Hanjue not paying attention to you?" "You’re the smart one; it’s not that he doesn’t want to pay attention to me, just that..." he doesn’t want to help me. "The bracelet on your wrist, that’s a couple’s bracelet, right?" Wu Taotao noticed the bracelet on her wrist. Ye Ningwan nodded, casually adjusting it. With Zhan Hanjue’s emotionally detached demeanor, she feared she would definitely lose this bet. Later, Zhan Hanjue even added a time limit to the bet. If in a month neither managed to move the other’s heart, she would have to pack up and leave. "Aren’t you worried Grandma will be sad if I leave?" "Do you really think I’ll be lacking women now?" Zhan Hanjue raised an eyebrow. Alright then! Ye Ningwan sighed. He was already appealing enough when he was blind. Now that his eyes are fine, with a single call, who knows how many women would flock to him. Indeed, there’s no need to worry about that problem. "You both have couple’s bracelets on, showing off your love. What are you upset about?" Wu Taotao was confused. Ye Ningwan said, "This bracelet isn’t to show off love; it’s... it’s part of a bet I made with Zhan Hanjue. If within a month I’m the first to have feelings for him, I lose, I’ll obediently admit defeat. But if within a month he’s the first to have feelings for me, he loses, he’ll obey my commands. If in a month neither has feelings for the other, I’ll pack up and leave, and he’ll find someone he prefers. It’s been two days, and this bracelet’s heartbeat is as calm as this year’s stock market, making me anxious." "You two... what era is this, still playing these Mary Sue tricks? But it’s quite fun; this bracelet is surely the company’s new product! He wouldn’t be, using you for testing?" Wu Taotao mocked. "Don’t laugh; I really can’t leave the Zhan Family, not right now. So help me think of ways to make a man fall in love with a woman within a month," Ye Ningwan said. "That’s simple," Wu Taotao said, "To make a man’s heart move, you have to treat him well, care for him meticulously. All those novels you read were in vain? Don’t they teach you how to handle a domineering CEO?" "Don’t bring up your novels; I tried to use their tips but they didn’t work on Zhan Hanjue," Ye Ningwan pouted. "I’ve got it, I know what to do." Wu Taotao snapped her fingers, eyes lighting up. Ye Ningwan frowned, suddenly having a bad feeling. Wu Taotao leaned closer to her ear and whispered something. Ye Ningwan knitted her brows, indeed, a bad feeling. "What if he refuses to come?" "I know this bracelet of yours; it alerts the partner automatically when there’s danger. You’re his wife at the very least; he wouldn’t just leave you to die," Wu Taotao said confidently. Ye Ningwan thought about it and agreed. Though not a real love, they’ve at least been married for quite a while. He wouldn’t knowingly leave her in danger without saving her. "If it works, I’ll treat you to a big meal," Ye Ningwan promised Wu Taotao. "Yay, awesome!" Wu Taotao jumped up happily like a child. Nightfalls. Zhan Hanjue returned home. Housekeeper Wu approached with concern and reported, "Young Master, Young Madam has been out all day and hasn’t come back. Do you want to call Young Madam to check on her?" "Who went with her?" Zhan Hanjue asked. "Chen took her there, however, after dropping her off, Young Madam told him to come back, saying she’d be a long time and he didn’t need to wait. But she hasn’t called Chen to let him know to go back over, and it’s dark now. If the Old Madam finds out, she’ll surely worry about Young Madam." At this moment, Zhan Hanjue’s phone suddenly emitted a piercing alarm sound. Zhan Hanjue immediately raised his wrist and pressed the tracking function, discovering that Ye Ningwan’s current location was unexpectedly in the outskirts, dozens of kilometers away.
