Back To The 90s: The Resilient Daughter-In-Law
Chapter 566 - Chapter 566 Chapter 566 Only Three Days_1

Chapter 566: Chapter 566: Only Three Days_1 Chapter 566: Chapter 566: Only Three Days_1 “I only have three days back home this time, and I must return to the 36th Division after three days.” The mention of his return cast a shadow over Huo Beijiang’s face, the frostiness in his eyes apparent. “After returning, I have to settle Lu Dongxin’s matter.”

Lu Dongxin is the fiancee set by the old man’s ultimate wish before his death.

“But you’ve been keeping it from your sister-in-law, the longer it takes, the worse it becomes.”

“I know.” He will have to come clean sooner or later, but his young wife is mad at him at the moment. She just started to like him, and if he were to tell her now, it would only push her further away.

He must find an appropriate chance, one that could minimize the harm and hurt.

Nan Fei didn’t know how she made her way back to the small hotel, and by the time she arrived, it was already dark outside. She stood at the entrance of the hotel, looked at the tall figure waiting in the lobby, and decisively turned away, heading towards the public square across the street.

She was feeling a turmoil of emotions and didn’t know what she should do.

Angry and reluctant, she was afraid that she would regret and couldn’t help but want to throw herself into Huo Beijiang’s arms if she faced him.

Nan Fei felt disgusted with her current self.

She was indecisive and hesitant, she didn’t like this side of her.

Her past self was absolutely unlike how she was now. Even though she had been blinded by others at that time, she never once dithered in making decisions . Even if she was wrong, she never regretted despite being battered and bleeding.

Perhaps she had crushed too miserably in her past life! She was afraid now, she was hesitant now.

Nan Fei sat on a long bench in the public square, lost in her own thoughts. Suddenly, an old and rich voice sounded in front of her, “Well! You are this year’s top scorer in the college entrance examination, right?”

Nan Fei looked up in surprise and found an old man with a familiar face under the bright lights of the square.

“You are Elder Dai, aren’t you?” As soon as she confirmed it, she stood up politely and said, “Please have a seat!” She had seen Dai Jinhai many times in her previous life when she was at Yu Jingyi’s. Every time Yu Jingyi argued with Old Mi, Dai Jinhai would be the one mediating when things reached a deadlock.

Actually, in her previous life, she was an apprentice to Yu Jingyi, but she didn’t like it there. Mainly because Yu Jingyi valued the talents of the students too much, students without talents were waste in his eyes, and her past self was just the kind of waste in his eyes.

They were master and apprentice in name only, but lacked the appropriate bond. Their relationship was merely a cooperation of mutual benefits.

Dai Jinhai nodded with satisfaction, sat down on the other side of the bench and said, ” I saw today’s evening paper, your student ID photo was on it.” He had been watching her from afar for a while, and seeing her seemingly in low spirits, he had been reluctant to leave in case she did something imprudent.

Dai Jinhai had always cherished talents, and N Province had finally produced a prodigy–he couldn’t let her harm herself.

Nan Fei sighed inwardly at the speed of media and was surprised at the old man’s sharpness, “The student ID photo is so unclear, how could you have recognized me?”

“I am in art, I have a keen sense for facial features, so I am certain it wasn’t a mistake.”

Nan Fei suddenly realized and gave him a thumbs up in admiration, “Incredible! In my opinion, Elder Dai, you’re much better than both South, Mi and North, Yu.”

“Hahaha…” Dai Jinhai laughed heartily, “Of course, I am definitely better than those old guys.” After saying that, he winked and said in a low voice intentionally, “I’ll let you in on a secret, I always let them win.”

Nan Fei believed him, “Why?”
