Chapter 345 He Came to the Campus
In the ssroom, there were quite a few students looking for Theodore, seeking his guidance to help
them get through their dissertations. With so many students, Le was in no hurry and waited. After
Theodore was done, she was thest to go seek his council.
By the time they left the ssroom, it was already past eleven at noon, time for lunch.
“Let’s grab lunch together!” Theodore said as they headed downstairs.
“No thanks!” Le shook her head.
“After your defenses are done, I’m leaving the university!” Theodore said in a calm manner. “Next
week, I won’t be an instructor here anymore!”
“Howe?” The sudden news caught Le by surprise.
Theodore let out a slightugh, “I’m leaving F City; already bought the ne ticket for next week!”
“You’re leaving?” Le asked, “Didn’t you just return?”
“Right! I’m only here for a month because of the principal’s request. The main goal was for me to help
your ss with your dissertations. If it was another ss, I’d have outright refused!”
Le had a realization; he only returned for her. Though she couldn’t put the feelings to words, but
against someone she didn’t love, it felt more like a burden. But as a friend, he was about to leave, so
she felt sad to some extent. She said, “Alright, let’s go to CF Restaurant; my treat!”
“Alright!” The two of them looked at each other and headed downstairs together.
They were still on the stairs when she felt a powerful presence. Le spotted Vincent from afar, with an
ominous look on his face. Looking at Le and Theodore smiling andughing, he couldn’t help but
look on with hatred and bitterness, “So, that’s how it is!”
Vincent thought back to Le’s call from yesterday, talking about openings. He was filled with
suspicions, so he decided toe to the school to see what it was all about. He had never seen her
smile that radiantly at himself that way, so he was filled with bitterness as he said, “You’re looking quite
happy, my dear wife!”
Le didn’t expect Vincent to show up, much less looking that way. The tone in which he spoke made
her feel as though he suspected she wasmitting adultery. She was merely walking and talking with
Theodore; did he have to speak in that manner?
“I’m just going to lunch with Professor Theodore and to send him off. What are you doing here?” She
looked calmly at Vincent and stated the facts. Of course she knew she was still his wife, so she
exined the situation. She kept her cool and spoke calmly.
Vincent squinted and narrowed his eyes. Le seemed to be quite hostile against him. He knew it was
he who locked her out of the door, so she must be angry. She must be furious! He really overdid it,
forgetting and locking her out of the door!
But that didn’t mean she could go and be so happy with someone else, right?
Damn, she mentioned trying to have a deep, meaningful love and happiness with someone else. Did
she mean to get a divorce and get together with Theodore? He knew the two of them had a history;
though they weren’t officially together, they were close enough. Besides, Theodore still liked Le.
“Hello, Mr. White!” Against Vincent’s gloom and doom, Theodore greeted in a calm manner.
Vincent’s eyes shifted, and he feigned a smile and began tough, “Hello, Mr. Hall! A sendoff? Are you
leaving? Where are you going that you need a sendoff?”
Just because Theodore was leaving, did she have to give him a sendoff? Did she want to leave with
him? For some reason, as she stood next to Theodore, it looked as though they got along really well,
which really irked him. Her rtionship to Theodore seemed much closer than that of hers with
Vincent. The more he thought, the more flustered he felt, and he emanated a dangerous aura about
him.
“Yes, Mr. White, I’m leaving!” Theodoreughed, “Today I’m off to eat with Le. We went to the same
school and she is my student. You don’t mind, do you?”
Vincent’s body began to shows signs of anger, and Le cut him off and said, “If there’s nothing else,
we’ll be leaving now!”
A vein popped on Vincent’s forehead, but he said, “Le, if you’re giving Mr. Hall a sendoff, how can I
not join? Besides, we’re husband and wife; let’s give him a sendoff together!”
“You’reing too?” Le was confused.
Vincent’s eyes faked a smile, but he had a dangerous aura, “My dear wife; I’ve been working all
morning and haven’t had breakfast yet, so that would also be my breakfast!”
Addressing her as his dear wife made her freeze in track and unable to speak right away.
“Mr. White, you must be quite busy; you must take better care of yourself, or else how will you care for
Le. If I recall, you’re older than Le by many years. If you don’t take good care of a cute girl like
Le, she might run off with someone else!”
Theodore said in a joking manner, but his eyes sharply stared at Vincent.
The corner of Vincent’s mouth slightly raised, and there was a look of provocation in his eyes as well.
He pulled Le to his side and gentlyughed, “Don’t worry, Mr. Hall. Le is cute, but I won’t let any
man have a chance to steal her away! She can only be mine!”
After he said this, Vincent pulled her into his arms.
Looking at Vincent’s actions, Theodore’s eyes turned cold; in mere moments, he could feel Vincent’s
unyielding presence. He slowly smiled, then said,”Mr. Hall is so dominating; do you really know what
Le wants?”
After he said this, he turned and smiled at Le.
Le was holding her breath; was Theodore intentionally provoking Vincent?
It appeared to Theodore that Le wanted to avoid Vincent, who used his domineering control to track
her down; he secretly felt disapprovingly inside.
“Let’s get going!” Le said to Theodore, “Let’s go eat first!”
She was about to turn around, but the second she was about to move, a gaze shed in her direction.
Vincent pulled her into his arms again.
Theodore smiled brightly, “Mr. White, are you going to eat with us? Then let’s go! It’s my treat today, as
my way to ask you take good care of Le in the future and make her happy!”
Just what right did Theodore have to ask this of him? Vincent snorted, “Professor Hall, you’re quite the
teacher, treating your students like your own sibling. Le, you’d better do well on your dissertation,
don’t let Professor. Hall’s efforts go to waste. Mr. Hall, how about I holding a banquet to help thank the
professors of the university, as a way for me to say thanks on behalf of Le?”
Le looked at the two of them and blinked; were they fighting?
Naturally, Theodore understood what Vincent meant by referring to him as “Professor”. This was to
remind him that he was Le’s teacher, and he shouldn’t overstep his boundaries!
“Oh, Mr. White, you’re quite generous! No need for the banquet, just taking good care of Le in the
future is enough.” Theodore looked at Le and kindly said, “Le, remember what I told you before;
nothing is more important than studies. Hold onto your dream, and go for it.”
Vincent’s expression looked slightly soured; what did he meant?
“Nothing is more important than studies!” Vincent frowned as he repeated this and thought about the
words. He looked down to look at Le, “Do you want to continue your studies? What kind of opening
did Professor Hall leave you?”
Le was stunned. How did he know? She almost forgot; Vincent was incredibly sharp and observant.
A smart man like him would definitely be able to piece together the whole picture from a few puzzle
pieces. But she didn’t want to tell him about her studying overseas. If he knew, he would definitely not
let her go.
She looked at Theodore and shook her head.
Theodore understood what she meant, thenughed and yed dumb. “What opening? I’m not sure
what you’re talking about!”
Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
Vincent caught sight of Le and Vincent exchanging nces; his eyes narrowed.
Looking at how flustered Vincent was, Theodore was in an incredibly good mood; he smiled slightly.
“Come on, Mr. White, what’s the hold up?”
Vincent’s eyes red, filled with danger, “Let’s go; where are we going to eat?”
“Q Restaurant!” Theodore said with a smile. “How about it?”
“Alright! I’m good with any ce!” Vincent took one look at Theodore, then tightly held Le’s hand. His
dominating actions made people want to beat him up.
Theodore could only endure; he had no right, so there was nothing he could do.
“Professor Hall, we’ll meet you there!” Vincent tightly held Le’s hand, then noted something was off.
He raised her hand and saw the Band-Aid. “What happened to your hand?”
Le looked up at his concerned face and pulled back her hand, “Oh, it’s nothing; just a small wound!”
“What happened?” He continued to ask. “How did you hurt your finger?”
Against his unrelenting concern, she didn’t know what else to say, and softly said, “I got hurt while
cutting vegetables!”
“Why can’t you be more careful?” He frowned again.
Le didn’t want to fight with Vincent in front of Theodore, so she softly said, “It’s nothing, just an
ident!”
Theodore looked at the couple; he could clearly see that Vincent was really concerned. He slightly felt
alone. Such was life; if you missed out on a love, it was set for life. He decided to go on ahead to the
restaurant, or else he’d feel more and more ufortable at their public disy of affection.
Theodore drove off in his car; Vincent grabbed Le’s hand and took her to his car. Le refused to sit
next to the driver’s seat; she sat in the backseat instead.
Against her actions, Vincent was a bit baffled, “Come sit in front!”
“No!” She shook her head. Thinking that Pippa sat in that seat, she felt ufortable.
“Are you treating me like your personal driver?” Vincent raised an eyebrow.
“Maybe I should go sit in Professor Hall’s car.”
