Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife

Chapter 882: Chapter 883: Enrollment

Zhang Jisheng left Cheng Su’s home looking utterly disheveled, staring at the residential compound in panic, feeling as if it were a giant beast with its mouth wide open, ready to swallow him at any moment.

Thinking again of Cheng Su’s warning words and that cold, stern look, Zhang Jisheng felt even more terrified.

They know, they all know what I’ve done, how could they, who told them?

All of a sudden, Zhang Jisheng remembered that day when Qi Taiguo came to him for a drink, and shivered, stumbling as he ran away from that place.

Never see them again, those two are wolves, the male wolf and the female wolf, any children they have would also be little wolves.

Returning home with a pale face, Qi Fenglian had just come back from work, and upon seeing him just entering, she asked, ”Where have you been? Why are you back so late? Why didn’t you eat at the shop?”

Zhang Jisheng’s heart skipped a beat. He shook his head and pretended to be nonchalant: ”Just chatted for a bit with some colleagues.” He couldn’t let her know he went to see Cheng Su, otherwise, if she found out about that matter from Cheng Su, the sky would truly collapse!

Qi Fenglian saw his lost look and the pale color of his face and couldn’t help but ask, ”What’s the matter with you? You look so unwell.” As she said this, she reached out to feel his forehead.

Whether from panic or guilt, Zhang Jisheng dodged, saying, ”Nothing, I’m going to take a bath.”

Qi Fenglian found it all inexplicable.

Over the next few days, Qi Fenglian found things even stranger, because Zhang Jisheng no longer came to the fast food shop to eat. When she asked him, he said he was tired of it and ate elsewhere, but Qi Fenglian felt he seemed guilty, like he was trying to avoid someone.

When Cheng Su came to the fast food restaurant, she mentioned it casually, and Cheng Su responded with a cold smile.

Of course, he felt guilty. His good deeds, along with that ugly facade of his, had all been uncovered. Of course, he’d feel guilty about facing anyone!

Seeing the puzzled look on her elder sister-in-law’s face, Cheng Su sighed again. Sometimes, the most pitiful person is the one kept in the dark, only to discover the truth at the end.

I only hope that elder sister-in-law never finds out the truth.

...

Day by day went by, and time flew. Soon it was the end of August, and Cheng Su had gradually perfected the plan to reconstruct the restaurant. During this period, she also resolved how Joy Soon Loy would continue to operate during the potential reconstruction, particularly how to ensure the kitchen functioned properly.

After discussing with Old Song and with the efforts of several people, Cheng Su managed to rent a neighboring bun shop at a high price, using their kitchen. Although a bit small, it was sufficient to prepare dishes and continue operating. Maintaining employee wages and other expenses was important, and it prevented the business from being forgotten due to reconstruction.

Now they only awaited Qi Taiguo’s return to seek his opinion, then just needed to find a contractor to kick off this plan.

In the last two days of August, Cheng Su went to Guicheng College to enroll, personally explained her circumstances to the relevant school leaders, stating she wouldn’t be staying in the dorms during her university years.

When living near home, some students choose to stay at home, only attending mandatory events occasionally; this was common. Thus, the director of academic affairs and others had no objections to Cheng Su’s request, even offering to keep her dorm bed for her, leaving it up to her whether or not to use it.

Once registered and archived, having chosen the humanities with a focus on English, Cheng Su carried a large stack of books and officially began her four-year university journey, becoming a bona fide college student.
