Although they were in the same class at the beginning, Shen Wenzhou’s attitude towards her was very distant until her parents, who were solely motivated by profit, found the school.
For a dowry of two hundred thousand, they refused to let her continue her education and demanded she return home to marry!
They dragged her out of the school, but she couldn’t leave because she knew that if she did, her life would be completely destroyed.
That day’s chaos was too much, and it wasn’t until teachers called the police and they went to the station that her crazed parents were unable to deliver her into someone else’s home.
Latter, the police educated her parents about the illegality of their actions, but neither the police nor the teachers could help her completely escape from those parents.
So when she returned home, she wisely apologized to her parents and then did everything possible to persuade them, telling them she could definitely bring them more benefits in the future, benefits that would far exceed a mere two hundred thousand!
It took a great deal of cajoling and deceiving before she convinced her parents not to marry her off; instead, they let her return to school to continue her studies.
After that day, she deliberately approached Shen Wenzhou, in fact, not just Shen Wenzhou, she deliberately approached anyone from a well-off family, regardless of gender.
Because she knew that if she didn’t make herself seem more valuable, she could be "sold off" by her crazed parents at any time.
But for some reason, Shen Wenzhou had become less indifferent than at the beginning.
In the same class, it was impossible not to greet each other, but when she first interacted with Shen Wenzhou, although he wouldn’t ignore you with a cold face, the alienation between people was very obvious.
Ever since that day, Shen Wenzhou was no longer so indifferent; she could clearly feel the change when she spoke to him.
Latter, she realized that perhaps her family situation had elicited sympathy from the young master Shen Wenzhou.
Zhou Ruoyu didn’t feel ashamed of this, on the contrary, she was happy, happy that Shen Wenzhou would approach her for this reason.
Although over the past year, she and Shen Wenzhou hadn’t made any substantive progress, she knew clearly that Shen Wenzhou treated her differently.
This slight difference eventually changed her life!
However, she had thought too simply!
The college entrance examination was coming soon, and they were about to part ways. She had missed the timing with Shen Wenzhou, which led to the embrace with Shen Wenzhou yesterday.
Her embrace with Shen Wenzhou was partly to express her grievances and partly to let Shen Wenzhou know her feelings, and also to give him the chance to accept her.
But Wanwan hadn’t expected to be caught by the principal!
What happened yesterday was completely unexpected; she had always been anxious and hadn’t rested well all of last night.
Today she found that Shen Wenzhou had once again become as distant as he was at the beginning; all her efforts had been in vain!
In the evening, Shen Wenzhou returned home with Ye Chaochao, and Taozhi lay at the villa’s entrance. Upon hearing the sounds, it looked up, then lay back down.
Shen Wenzhou walked over, bent down, and carefully picked up Taozhi, then gently smoothed its fur.
Taozhi had always been a very well-behaved cat, or perhaps not so well-behaved—it only stayed still when Shen Wenzhou was holding it.
