Sean was momentarily stunned before he chuckled at Charles. "What's this? You actually seem concerned about my education?"Charles shot him a look of disdain, then lowered his gaze, idly tapping his long fingers against his phone. "Didn't you already finish all your coursework? Why are you still hanging around?""Unlike you, I didn't find skipping grades amusing. I'm a model student!"Charles scoffed at that but did not bother arguing. "Since you've already bought the hospital, stay there and focus on it. Stop running around.""I came to talk to you about medical equipment, and here you are nagging like an old lady. You're starting to sound just like my grandmother!" Sean muttered, though, in the end, he still nodded."Relax, it's just for now. After these next two years, I won't have to go back to the university anymore. You think I enjoy staying there? It's those professors who won't let me go."Now, about the equipment—are you selling it to me or not? I'm offering way above ma

Tania noticed that although Liliana's expression darkened slightly, she did not show any extreme reaction. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief."Liliana, let's go buy some clothes. We're about to start university, and honestly, our outfits still make us look like high school kids!"Liliana chuckled and nodded. "You're right. We still look like underage kids!"She reached out and playfully poked Tania.Tania gasped and immediately retaliated, reaching out to grab Liliana. Seeing this, Liliana spun around and bolted, laughing as she ran."Liliana! Don't run! Just wait until I catch you!" Tania yelled, chasing after her."Come on, then! Try and catch me!" Liliana stuck out her tongue, making a playful face at Tania, which only made Tania stomp her foot in frustration."Liliana! Just wait until I get you! How dare you mess with me? You're dead!"On the second floor of the World Trade Plaza, two young girls were dashing through the shopping area, laughing and teasing each oth

Was it because Sean had sensed the admiration in her eyes? Did he dislike her so much that he left without a word?"Sean, wait for me!"Joanna set down the model kit and ran after him, but in such a massive shopping mall, there was no trace of Sean anywhere.Sean had followed Liliana and Tania downstairs. He did not know Tania, but he would recognize Liliana anywhere.His strides were long and determined. Liliana, as if sensing something, quickly grabbed Tania's hand and pulled her toward the exit. As soon as they stepped outside, she hastily flagged down a cab. The moment the car door shut, they disappeared from Sean's sight.Tania was bewildered by Liliana's sudden urgency. She noticed Liliana's face had turned pale and looked at her with concern. "Liliana, what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry?"After all, just earlier, they had taken the bus because Liliana had insisted on saving money and avoiding unnecessary expenses.Yet now, Liliana had not only hailed a cab but ha

Given Sean's status and influence, he had no real reason to attend the freshman orientation. However, Joanna, who was the vice president of the student council, had taken charge of organizing the entire event.She had extended an invitation to Sean, though without much expectation. Based on his usual attitude, it seemed highly unlikely that he would agree.However, because she was so close to him—and since most students at Vista University assumed she was his girlfriend—no one questioned her connection to him.When the student council president suggested that having Sean participate in the orientation would be the most exciting event at Vista University, Joanna felt both honored and eager. She immediately went to ask Sean, fully expecting him to decline. Yet to her surprise, he agreed without hesitation.Under the scorching sun, Joanna held a stack of pamphlets, casting a glance at the distant figure standing with his usual aloofness. A rush of joy filled her chest.She had not ex

"Let me take you two there.""That won't be necessary!" Liliana immediately refused, perhaps a little too quickly. Maybe it was Sean's unexpected initiative or maybe it was just her reaction that drew attention, but the people passing by all seemed to pause and glance in their direction.Joanna, too, was startled—not just by Liliana's refusal but even more so by Sean's offer in the first place.In all the years she had known him, Sean had never shown any particular interest in anyone.Sure, he was approachable and easy to talk to, but at the same time, he was also the hardest person to actually engage with. She had been by his side for so long, yet every time she wanted to bring something up, she had to carefully gauge his mood before even daring to speak.Yet now, Sean had taken the initiative. He had offered to help—something she had never seen him do before.Who were these two girls?What was so special about them that Sean would go out of his way like this?Joanna, who had
