Yu Wan's test results were still normal, and she returned to the villa with Yu Jianguo that night, leaving Meng Shen alone.
Meng Shen looked resentful. He never expected that the first time he would be accompanying someone in the hospital would be with Tang Yue.
Fortunately, these high-end wards have individual cubicles, and although the beds in the cubicles are narrow and small, it's still manageable to make do for one night.
Ugh, what the hell is going on?

"Buzz..."
Yu Wan was woken up early in the morning by the urgent ringing of the phone. She picked up her phone, swiped to answer, and said with obvious impatience, "Hello?"
In an instant, Meng Shen's shrill voice came through like a machine gun: "Yu Xiaowan, Tang Yue insisted on being discharged from the hospital this morning. I couldn't stop him, and in the end, I took him to a hostel. Guess where that place is? It's in a run-down, filthy alley outside the Sixth Ring Road. Calling it a slum would be an insult to the word. The surrounding houses are the kind of shacks you see on TV for migrant workers. I sent you the photos; you have to remember to look at them..."
Yu Wan was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, so she hung up the phone and went back to sleep.
Buzz...
My phone vibrated again.
Yu Wan has always been grumpy when she wakes up. As soon as she answered the phone, she started yelling: "Where Tang Yue lives is none of my business. Meng Shen, if you dare to disturb my sleep again, believe me, I'll report you to your father in a minute and say that you were racing cars and fighting outside of school."
There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone before someone said, "...Yu Wan, this is Rong Jun, your econometrics teacher."
Yu Wan jolted awake, instantly sober.
Rong Yun, an old man with a very literary name, was nicknamed "Uncle Who Fails Exams". Every year, the difficulty of his exams was the highest in the entire school. He also paid great attention to attendance. If you skipped class three times, you would have to retake the course no matter how well you did on the exam.
Yu Wan glanced at the caller ID in disbelief, and sure enough, it was the call from that "failed senior."
This is the second time she has retaken this course this semester.
For someone like her who gets zero on every exam, failing a course means throwing money at the school, donating equipment, repairing the sports field... But econometrics alone won't do. Even if you want to build a building for the school, failing a course still means you have to retake it.
Rong Yun has a powerful background, making him a nightmare for all the spoiled brats at Jiang University!
"Teacher Rong," Yu Wan said obediently. Although she was usually arrogant and domineering, she was very humble and polite in front of her teachers. "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Rong Jun's unhurried voice came over: "I have a class at ten o'clock this morning. You have already skipped class twice. If you miss it again, you don't need to come anymore. Just repeat the course next year."
"!!!"
"Yes, I'll definitely go," Yu Wan assured him. She was a junior this year and didn't want to continue taking classes with a bunch of sophomores next year when she was a senior. She couldn't bear the embarrassment.
After hanging up the phone, she hurriedly washed up, put on makeup, and chose clothes; an hour passed by in a flash. As she went downstairs, she glanced at her phone; the screen showed 8:42.
Uncle Liu stepped forward and asked with a kind expression, "Miss, why are you up so early today? Would you like breakfast? I'll arrange it right away."
Yu Wan said, "It's too late. Uncle Liu, could you please pack me a sandwich? I need to go to Jiangda University now."
Uncle Liu was astonished: "The young lady still has to attend class?"
Yu Wan nodded and gave a wry smile: "Today is Professor Rong's econometrics class."
Uncle Liu felt a mix of emotions. He looked at Yu Wan with relief for several moments before leaving. He clenched his fists, his eyes slightly red. He hadn't expected the young lady to be such a sensible and strong girl, facing life with a smile even while battling a terminal illness.

Jiangnan University is one of the top three universities in China, boasting a wealth of top-tier faculty. The economics and business programs that Yu Wan chose are among the top 1% globally.
All of this was orchestrated by Yu Jianguo. He figured the Yu Group would eventually be left to Yu Wan, and even if his daughter was hopeless, at least she knew some financial knowledge so she wouldn't suffer in the future. Who would have thought that even after going to university, his daughter still got zero on her exams every year? It seems bad grades can indeed be inherited across generations; he himself used to consistently rank at the bottom of his class.
Later on, Yu Jianguo had no expectations whatsoever and planned to hire a capable son-in-law to manage the Yu family business. If that didn't work out, he would hire a professional CEO.
Therefore, I basically just coasted through university.
boom--
The arrogant engine roar abruptly ceased, and the silver Lykan screeched to a stop in front of the building, drawing everyone's attention. The car door slowly opened, and a few seconds later, a pair of long legs stepped out first, followed by a bright and flamboyant woman.
A Reiss loose-fitting white shirt paired with Maxmara early autumn asymmetrical loose-fitting casual pants. Yu Wan, at 168cm tall, perfectly pulls off the relaxed and effortless look.
Everyone's eyes lit up, a look of amazement flashing across their faces.
Luxury cars and beautiful women—their beauty was beyond compare, truly the epitome of beauty.
"I know that car. Have you seen Fast & Furious 7? The red sports car that appeared when Vin Diesel jumped over the skyscraper. It was really cool and stylish."
"Isn't that Hua Yuwan from the Economics Department? She's both rich and beautiful."
"Ha, the infamous last place in the whole school. So what if she's rich? She's still a female hoodlum, a parasite on society."
"You're just being sarcastic..."
The surroundings were noisy, and several burning gazes were cast upon her. Yu Wan ignored them; there were still five minutes until ten o'clock, and she had to get to the sixth floor as soon as possible.
Just as I stepped onto the stairs, a slender figure suddenly blocked my way.
Yu Wan lifted her eyelids and frowned slightly when she saw the person who had come.
"Miss Yu, let's talk." Ji Yun Chu smiled slightly, her appearance bright and sunny, truly deserving of the title of the nation's first love.
The boys present suddenly brightened up.
Yu Wan immediately refused: "Sorry, we're not familiar with each other."
Ji Yun Chu hadn't expected her to be so ruthless. Her expression stiffened for a moment, but she said in a good-natured tone, "I want to talk to you about some private matters. It's not convenient to talk here. How about we go to the coffee shop next to the North Gate?"
In just a short while, many more students passing by couldn't help but stop and look in this direction.
Almost everyone in the school knew that Yu Wan and Ji Yun Chu had a grudge. The reason was that during last year's school anniversary performance, Yu Wan publicly mocked Ji Yun Chu's violin playing as decadent music. However, Ji Yun Chu was magnanimous and did not take it to heart, which won everyone's favor.
This is the first time that the two most beautiful girls in the department have faced off head-on.
Yu Wan curled her lips, a hint of mockery in her eyes, and said something quite irritating: "Ms. Ji, you should know your place. Not everyone is qualified to invite me for coffee. Next time, remember to call my secretary in advance. Maybe with Chairman Ji's name, you can book a time when I'm free."
Arrogant and presumptuous!
And it was a blatant insult.
With her fingers clenched into a fist, Ji Yun Chu almost ground her teeth to powder. What she hated and resented most was Yu Wan's arrogant demeanor!
I took a deep breath.
"But I want to talk to you about how my ex-fiancé mistook you for a substitute for me."
