Jiang Yao checked her surroundings. It was a hot afternoon and no one was out. Most of the students on campus were either in their rooms or somewhere else with cool air conditioning.
"Xuehui, Li Ronghui is not the one for you. He has ulterior motives." Jiang Yao continued after a moment's thought. "I once overheard his conversation. His friend asked if he actually liked you, and do you know what he said?"
"What?" Wen Xuehui's heart dropped. She was not ready for the answer.
"He said that he wanted to do research under your father, Chancellor Wen. You know that your father is very strict about the students he takes in under his wing. Recently, he seems to not accept any post-graduate students at all. This is why Li Ronghui wanted to take advantage of him being with you to join your father's research team."
With Li Ronghui's meticulous personality, he would not have said any of these things to anyone else. Nevertheless, Jiang Yao had not wronged Li Ronghui since that was indeed his plan after all.
In her previous life, through Jiang Yao, Li Ronghui had become the first student accepted by Chancellor Wen into his research team. With that, he had received the education that he had always wanted from the chancellor. He was then asked by the chancellor to stay back and teach at the school, and yet, he had not been contented with that arrangement.
After graduating, he had then set his sights on the Zhang family.
At that point in time, the Zhang family's business ventures had begun to settle down after years of development and growth. The Zhang family were looking for a capable son-in-law as Zhang Xiqing was their only daughter. Understanding that he would be able to help manage the family business after marrying Zhang Xiqing, Li Ronghui had swiftly gotten married to her after breaking up with Wen Xuehui.
