"Jiaojiao is only in her second year of college now. Youâll be abroad for two years, get your degree and come back. By then, she might not have graduated yet, so this time allocation is the most reasonable," analyzed Duan Qianyang.
"..." Ruan Jiaojiao.
His words made her feel like she was wasting time, but clearly she was following the standard path, and everyone else was too.
"No." Duan Xi still gave the same answer, even furrowing his brow.
Ruan Jiaojiao has just entered adulthood in the past two years, and undoubtedly, this time is extremely important for both of them. In any case, he wouldnât leave her.
Duan Qianyang had already expected such a result, so he wasnât surprised by his answer. He didnât bring it up again later; it was just a casual remark. If it worked out, great; if not, he didnât mind.
However, as Ruan Jiaojiao and Duan Xi were returning, Jiaojiao couldnât help but ask Duan Xi in the car, "Brother Xi, do you want to go?"
Studying abroad is now a popular trend. Anyone with some money would want to have a stint overseas. Some even arenât there for studying, just purely to spend a year or so abroad, as if such a trip could somehow give them an edge.
Ruan Jiaojiao never considered going abroad. She couldnât bear to leave, as there are too many things she couldnât let go of here. Just the Ruanlin Family would be enough to make her cry her eyes out overseas, so she absolutely wouldnât go abroad.
And Duan Xi even more so.
Heâs stayed in this world because of her, and over the years, this initial intention has never changed. Whatever he does, sheâs the priority. It includes completing a degree in a year and a half to graduate quickly, earn a lot of money, support her, let her live without worries, and achieve her wish of becoming a rich, beautiful woman.
Naturally, things wonât get reversed. He wonât leave her for those uncertain reasons, especially at this time.
"I donât want to go. Wherever you are, is where Iâll be." Duan Xi replied.
Ruan Jiaojiao felt sweetness in her heart.
She leaned over to give him a peck on the cheek, then sat up straight, pulled out her bag of snacks, found her favorite chips, munching while discussing their future plans.
Duan Xi has already graduated and plans to start a business with the money heâs saved over the years. But before entrepreneurship, thereâs another very important thing to do.
After visiting the zoo last year, Ruan Jiaojiao suddenly had the urge to open a zoo, and when she mentioned it to Duan Xi, he refused.
Ruan Jiaojiao doesnât know that she shines in the eyes of animals. Any animal that sees her naturally likes her and wants to be close to her. Part of the reason is related to the spiritual power he transferred to her to bring her back to this world, but for the rest, he doesnât really know why.
If she wants to open a zoo, just the thought of those animals coveting her and approaching her makes him feel anxious.
But he couldnât resist Jiaojiaoâs persistent persuasion. Plus, she had a point. Xiaobaiâs batch of baby snakes all survivedâthe whole seven of themâand without a zoo, thereâs really no room. And then thereâs Xiaoxue, who is pregnant during this period and looks like sheâs expecting several wolf pups. Having just two wolves is already eye-catching enough, and with the new litter, itâll surely draw even more attention.
