The young man gulped a mouthful of the bitter coffee. Afterward, he said, "To visit you, why else?"Hao Gang sat down across him.
Before the professor replied, his eyes went to the direction of the girl"s dorm for a while. He teasingly laughed.
"Hehe, I caught you watching that spectacle, so I thought you"re here for your fiancee!"
"Ex-fiancee."
Jiang Li nonchalantly clarified.
"I had that whatever engagement canceled six months ago. That girl also didn"t know that the engagement existed."
Hao Gang laughed. "Even though this Miss Xia doesn"t look as G.o.ddess-like as my sister or that girl she"s confronting now, she"s still a beauty and from a respected family of scholars too. Why did you call it off?"
Jiang Li took another gulp.
"This is the problem with society. Why would I let myself be tied to someone I"m not even acquainted with?"
"Business interest."
Jiang Li laughed.
It was a rare thing for him to talk about foolish things like this.
But he felt quite close to this mentor and friend of his thus he answered,
"I"m a b.a.s.t.a.r.d. But not to the point that I"ll compromise the happiness of someone innocent like that little lady. From the very start, I know my goals and priorities."
"... It"s completing missions and going back to repay the betrayers from his past life."
With an amused, almost self-mocking grin on, he added,
"Marriage didn"t come to mind yet. Or maybe, will never do."
Hao Gang laughed at him and slapped him at the back.
This professor was the only one with the guts to do this to the young COO of a big company.
"Stop the pessimism, my student! The end of that corporation which preyed on your precious cousin is near. Once that giant conglomerate is ruined, you"ll have all the time in the world to plan for your own happiness. We only live once, you know? Don"t tell me you plan to spend your next 50 plus years wrestling with papers? d.a.m.n. That"s so uncool!"
Jiang Li"s lips twitched. He almost said,
"Wrong, respected Sir. I don"t care about Jiang Xinyi and I"ll exit this world as soon as possible to go to the next one."
"By the way, even though the two of you will no longer be in a relations.h.i.+p in the future, that girl seemed to be in trouble. Would you like me to call that student over and say it"s for something academical?"
Jiang Li"s eyes were directed at a figure that appeared on the opposite side who seemed to be heading towards the dormitory too.
This was the reason why his answer came late. Still, his reply was said in an insulting manner.
"Respected Sir, by any chance, have you ever considered what would happen if you, a pervert, do that?"
Hao Gang suggested that earlier out of goodwill hence he almost choked on his coffee when he heard his former student"s reply. He glared at Jiang Li.
"... For someone who definitely seeks me out for a favor, your remarks are pretty scathing... I feel hurt!"
"You"re not. And we don"t need to act since I"m sure somebody else is already on it. If I"m not mistaken my batch"s magna c.u.m laude is heading towards that woman."
Jiang Li"s eyes went to the glamorous socialite in a red long-sleeve b.u.t.ton-up s.h.i.+rt and white gauze skirt who was currently making her way to the girl named Xia Xinyue.
A question popped up in his mind.
"When did my former fiancee have any intersection or relation with Zhu Li, the only princess of the Zhu Corporation?"
