The embarrassed Sunny scratched his head.
“Don't worry. I'll definitely not act recklessly next time.”
The recent incident was my fault. My hasty actions put everyone in deep trouble.
Arius patted Sunny on the shoulder.
“It's normal for young men to be impulsive, but the next time you get into a fight, bring Sophie with you
—she's really formidable.”
If Sophie had been there, he wouldn't have lost so badly.
Nonetheless, Arius' words elicited a glare from Sophie.
“You should keep your big mouth shut. Since there's nothing else, it's time for you to pack up and
return to Anglandur!”
Other than getting on people's nerves, he's no longer of any use here.
Feeling offended, Arius lashed out, “Sophie, why are you so ungrateful? When you needed me, I flew
over here without any hesitation. But now that you don't, you chase me out just like that. How can you
do this to me?”
Don't take advantage of me just because we're friends!
“I don't see any problem with that. Isn't your mentor pestering you to return? I think you should hurry up
and go!”
I'm telling him to go back for his own good! Given how busy he is with his research in Anglandur, going
back earlier will allow him to get back to making contributions to society.
“The more you want me to return, the less I'm inclined to do so.”
After all, having gained significant experience at the research institute over the years, I'm more than
capable of starting my own institute right here. Furthermore, there are already plenty of investors who
are interested in supporting me.
“Sophie, do you think that I'll do equally well in Chanaea if I decide to return for good?”
He longed to return, for Anglandur wasn't his home, regardless of how wonderful it was.
“Are you serious?”
This wasn't the first time she heard Arius mention it.
He must really want to come back if he's asking this question.
“I've been giving the matter some thought recently. If I were to set up my own research institute here,
I'm sure I can achieve plenty.”
“Good. It looks like your mind hasn't been corrupted by capitalism yet.”
To be aware of the need to return after achieving success is something to be proud of.
“You have my support no matter your decision.”
Arius couldn't resist breaking into a smile.
“Sophie, to be honest, that's the most touching thing I've ever heard you say to me.”
Arius was moved by her words.
“Don't feel sad. Just remember to let me know if you need anything.”
Sentimental words were never her style.
“Of course. If I were to really come back here, there's no way I'm letting you off!” I'm definitely not
passing up the valuable resource that she is.
“By the way, which university are you planning to go to? If you intend to join the International Medical
Association, it would do you good to enter a university in Anglandur,” asked Arius.
Otherwise, it would be tiring to go back and forth.
“I have yet to come to a decision.”
“Is it because of Tristan? Sophie, I don't think you should ever let anyone stand in the way of your
future.” Regardless of how exceptional Tristan is, he's still just a man.
“Arius, Tristan is now my boyfriend. Considering that he has included me in his plans for the future,
how can I disappoint him?”
“But your life has just begun and your future is filled with possibilities. Why do you insist on tying
yourself down to this crooked tree?”
Ysabelle's lips twitched at the comment.
Since when has Uncle Tristan become a crooked tree? If he heard of this, Arius would be doomed.
“Girl, why are you staring at me that way? Do you have a crush on me?” asked Arius—unable to help
his narcissism—when he saw the look Ysabelle was giving him.
His response stumped Ysabelle, who had never seen such an egoistic person before.
Thereafter, Arius struck a pose to express his self-deluded attractiveness.
“I know I'm good-looking, but you had better not fall for me, as I'll never fancy you.”
By then, Ysabelle was so grossed out that she was on the brink of puking.
“Don't worry. I'll definitely never have feelings for you.” Who would ever develop feelings for a peacock?
“What do you mean? Don't you think I'm handsome?”
“Uncle Tristan is way more handsome compared to you,” Ysabelle replied candidly.
Even though Uncle Tristan isn't really nice to me, he's still my relative. Arius had better not cross the
line.
“You... Sophie, look at how rude your friend is. You should teach her some manners.”
Sophie gave him the side-eye.
“Can you stop it already? If there's nothing else, you should pack up and go.” Regardless of his plans
for the future, I'm sure he still has to tie up loose ends in Anglandur first.
“Fine. I know you don't like the sight of me. I'll leave and get out of your way.”
“Okay, let me know when you're leaving.”
“Don't bother. Just focus on your university entrance exam. That aside, have you joined HF University's
private student recruitment program?”
As only local universities recognized the university entrance exam, Sophie had to take the test for the
private student recruitment program if she intended to study overseas.
“I'm not interested in going.”
Arius was at a loss for words.
Others have difficulty passing the exam, whereas she shows no desire to even take the exam. What's
wrong with her?
“No matter what, the International Medical Association is a fantastic place to gain experience in. You
should consider it!”
Meanwhile, it was the first time Sunny heard about how smart Sophie was, making him feel as if he
never really knew her at all.
She's so amazing, and yet, keeps a low profile.
“What is it?” Sophie asked when she noticed Sunny staring at her.
“Sophie, I'm surprised to hear about how amazing you are!”
While Sophie didn't know how to respond, Arius broke out into a smile.
“But of course. You have no idea how awesome this girl in front of you is.” Arius was filled with pride.
“Sunny, regardless of who I am, I'm still that same person you know,” uttered Sophie.
Sunny nodded in acknowledgment.
With so many outstanding people around him, he suddenly felt useless.
Should I try to get into university too?
“Sophie, if I go back to high school now, would I become a laughing stock?”
A long time had passed since he last went to school, making him wonder if it was still possible for him
to enter university.
His question stunned Sophie, for she never expected him to be interested in going to university.
“Are you for real?”
Sunny nodded.
“Of course. Though I'm already nineteen, so it might be a little late, I still feel like I should learn
something.”
“I see! Okay then. It's not a problem at all. Once you're discharged from the hospital, I'll arrange twelfth-
grade tuition for you.” As long as one is willing to learn, there's no such thing as being too late.
Ysabelle gaped in shock.
What has gotten into Sunny? Why does he want to go to school all of a sudden?
