    The next morning, as Ang came downstairs from her room, she spotted a cheerful Bruce. sitting


    there.


    Jonathan was seated across from him, his gaze slightly lowered, with a smoothly curved. profile.


    Upon catching sight of Ang, Bruce’s smile stretched even wider. He waved enthusiastically and


    called out, “Ang, good morning! Did you have a good sleepst night?”


    Returning his warm smile, Ang replied, “Old Mr. Lawson. I slept like a log. What brings you here so


    early today?”


    “Hehe… I came to check on how you and Jonathan are doing these days.”


    His intentions were clear, and Ang didn’t want to give anything away. She simply blushed slightly


    and lowered her voice. “Old Mr. Lawson, we’re doing fine.”


    Taking note of her reaction, Bruce assumed she was feeling a bit shy.


    He chuckled even louder as if picturing himself strolling around next year with a chubby baby in his


    arms.


    Bruce patted the seat next to him. “Ang,e sit here and chat with me.”


    Just as she was about to step over, Jonathan nced at the time, lifted his gaze, and said calmly,


    “Grandpa, it’s time for Ang to go to ss.”


    Bruce shot him a re and retorted, “I timed my visit perfectly. It’s still early”N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.


    Quickly, Ang reassured. Jonathan, it’s okay. I don’t have any important ss this morning.


    Bruce finally let Jonathan go and resumed conversing with Ang, even reasing her about being


    bullied by Jonathan.


    During his conversation, hepletely disregarded Jonathan, his own grandson.

    Bruce was highly pleased with Ms. May and promptly presented her with a money packet. He praised


    her for looking after the young couple.


    Ms. May epted it with a heart full of gratitude.


    Ang noticed a thick stack of money packets in Bruce’s pocket.


    She blinked in surprise and inquired, “Old Mr. Lawson, why do you carry so many money packets with


    you! Today is not a special day.”


    Across from her, Jonathan’s dark eyes met Ang’s, and a subtle smile tugged at the corner of his lips.


    “After we got engaged, Grandpa began distributing them to everyone he encountered.”


    Bruce chuckled. “Such great joy should be shared with many.”


    Some old friends whom he hadn’t had the chance to see were also informed of this news, and he even


    said that now they could share the joy of money packets, but in the future, when the two of them got


    married, they couldn’t be stingy and should reciprocate a bigger one.


    Ang nced at Bruce, then at Jonathan, and softly chuckled.


    After dinner, Jonathan happened to be heading to thepany.


    He offered to drop Ang off at school despite it not being on the way. Ang didn’t decline. so as not


    to give Bruce the impression they were overly formal as a “young couple.”


    Thus, under Bruce’s approving gaze, the two of them entered the car.


    As they drove, Ang gazed out the window at the passing scenery until Jonathan’s voice interrupted.


    “Close the window and keep warm. It’s chilly this morning. Don’t want you to catch a cold.”


    She immediately obediently closed it and then looked out through the car window. Along the way, they


    passed several ces, which were the construction sites of futurerge shopping malls and


    commercial buildings.


    Ang turned to look at Jonathan and asked, “Jonathan, have you acquired extra properties. ornd?”


    He gave her a curious look. “You seem quite interested in that?”

    He remembered she had brought it up on more than one asion.


    “It’s not really about that. I just think the real estate industry will definitely be lucrative in the

    As her words trailed off, Jonathan fell silent for a moment before replying, “Yes.”

    As they conversed, the car had already arrived.


    Ang waved goodbye to him as she got out of the car.


    Jonathan lowered the car window. “I’ll pick you up


    this afternoon


    She didn’t refuse and crisply replied, “Okay.”


    The car made a U–turn and drove off in the opposite direction.


    Having adjusted her white coat, she began walking toward the school.


    After taking a few steps, her phone suddenly vibrated with a text message.


    She opened it and saw a message from Oliver.


    Oliver: Mrs. Lawson, someone is following you in the ten o’clock direction. Should I take care


    of it?


    I’m being followed?


    Ang discreetly put away her phone, and out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a


    figure. She looked up and saw Ste hiding behind a big tree outside the school gate.


    Ste was acting sneakily, holding a camera and taking pictures of her.


    Ang narrowed her eyes and walked over with a smirk.


    When Ste realized she had been caught red–handed, it was toote to escape. Ang grabbed her


    wrist, and with her other hand, she managed to snatch away the camera while. the former struggled.


    Ste struggled even more intensely, feeling like her body was behaving strangely, as if she

    Though Ang was only holding onto her wrist, thetter felt unbearable moved. It felt as if she had

    “W–what do you mean?” Ste asked, and her eyes widened upon sensing that something. ominous

    The next moment, she saw Ang take something out of her bag and sprinkle it on her face.


    It felt cool and slightly stinging.


    Ste screamed. “Ah, you sshed sulfuric acid on me! Help, someone…


    As she screamed, she felt something was wrong.


    She touched her face and felt a liquid like water, with no particr smell.


    Angughed recklessly. “Aren’t you shameless? What are you afraid of?”


    “You, you… you tricked me! Ang, this isn’t over between us.”


    “The tool of the crime belongs to me now.”


    Ang lifted the camera and tucked it into her bag, then turned to leave.


    Ste yelled after her. “Who gave you the right to take my camera? Ang, have you gone

    wasn’t a major offense, if it attracted the attention of the police and caused amotion, it would


    be serious.


    Upon seeing that Ste was weighing the consequences, Ang smirked and left.


    To solve a problem, one needed to tackle it head–on. Knowing that Ste valued her belongings the


    most, Ang taught her a lesson by taking away her cherished possessions.


    On this calm morning at Riverdon University, a ridiculous incident urred.


    Ste’s face suddenly turned green on her way to ss!


    Amidst theughter, she quickly pulled out a mirror. In the reflection, her entire face was


    green.


    She looked like a female version of a green monster, which scared her enough to toss the


    mirror away.


    Curious ssmates gathered around her like spectators at a circus, and someone snapped a picture of


    her green face and posted it on the school forum.


    At lunchtime, Ang quietly ate in the cafeteria while secretly enjoying Ste’s new look.


    It was the potion she had researched before, with its properties being colorless and tasteless. just like


    water. But once it touched the skin and was exposed to the air, it would turn green within three hours.

    For the next few days, Ste won’t be roaming around the school, and she will not be able to secretly
