Bab 43: He is different.

Xu Nuan nodded after hearing his response. However, even if he went on a trip, he could have at least informed her.

Didn't he promise to take care of her meals, she was waiting for him…*ahem* for his food delivery, which never came.

Han Zihao didn't remove his gaze from her and stared at her intently.

"-_-"

Xu Nuan was trying hard to ignore him but she could feel his constant gaze on her. She cleared her throat and turned to him and asked, " Do you like me?" her lips curled up as she teased him.

"-_-"

Feng Sheng was shocked when he heard Xu Nuan's questions. He almost put a brake but controlled himself, thinking that he was driving.

It took lots of patience for him to continue driving and not turn around and see Han Zihao's reaction. Only Xu Nuan has the guts to ask this question directly to this monster, that too at a so

randomly.

It's not that she is the only girl who hit on him, but their consequences were not something to be proud of. He was wondering how he would react to the Xu Nuan's impromptu question.

Han Zihao pursed his lips in a thin line and stared at her indifferently. He raised his brows wondering what she was thinking, but he felt a little intimidated seeing her strong, charming yet seductive gaze.

He clears his throat and says, " What non.. nonsense. How can you even ask this question?" He stuttered a little while responding.

She chuckled and said, " Oh! I caught you. You're blushing Mr. Han. So you're denying, hah. Trying hard to get? Well, Mr. Han, you should be glad that I, Jia...Xu Nuan is flirting with you. Not everyone gets a golden chance like this." She winked at him while flashing a beautiful smile on her face.

"-_-"

Both Han Zihao and Feng Sheng were surprised by hearing Xu Nuan's words.

For Han Zihao, it was still a little difficult to see Xu Nuan in a different light. He has dug deeper about her past and she seems like a very obedient, easily intimidated quiet girl. She was never a mischievous child and was very quiet and easily manageable when she came to Gu Family.

However, seeing the Xu Nuan in front of her, she doesn't look like an obedient girl at all. It's hard to imagine that this is the same obedient and innocent girl everyone talks about.

She has said that she is not the same as before and has changed a lot. But does a person change so much? To this extent?

Han Zihao gathered his composure and said, " Ms. Gu, you should focus on your studies. Your priority should be getting into a College not hitting on others."

She raised her brows not expecting this response from him. She chuckled and said, " Mr. Han is acting like my dad, huh? Studies? Why do I need to study? And why do you care if I study or not?"

" Cough, cough" Feng Sheng couldn't help but cough hearing her words. His mind suddenly went on another track hearing the word, 'Dad'.

Han Zihao tightened his jaw and glared at Feng Sheng. After that, he turned to her and said," If not study then what are you planning? Find a rich guy and get married? Is that what you are aiming for?"

" Ms. Gu, let me tell you one thing, rather than finding a rich guy, it's better to focus on your career. People come and go, rather than finding someone to depend on, you need to learn to rely on yourself. No man can respect you if you don't learn to respect yourself."

"-_-"

Xu Nuan was surprised when she heard his words. Though she meant what she said, however, he didn't understand the context of her words. But, what he said, really surprised her.

She was speechless and just stared at him in a daze. Qin Ju has always said to her in the past that she is too strong and not feminine at all. Since she always makes her decision, he always told her that she is not like women and always acts arrogantly. After finding that he cheated on her, she wondered for a moment if it was because of her strong personality. Do men really not like strong and confident women?

However, she reminded herself to be strong and not get swayed by such ridiculous thoughts. Society will never be happy for women. They will call you a gold digger if you depend on men, they will call you arrogant bitch and sl*t if you are capable and independent. However, being an arrogant bitch is better than being a gold digger because at least you don't need to depend on others.

Hearing his words, hse felt like that out of all the men that she has encountered, only he has the vision which matches hers. She started to see him in a different light now. He is not the same arrogant young master that she has thought he is.

' He is different.'

*Ahem*, "I never said that I want to find a rich guy and get married. Mr. Han seems like you are getting so many marriage proposals these days that you can't think about anything other than marriage." She teased him which changed his tense expressions.

" Then what were you going to do if not study? You only passed from school. Shouldn't you at least graduate from a university?" he asked while placing his tablet aside.

She shook her head and said, " Entering into a university is just an option. Not a necessity. I have different plans for my future other than getting into a university." She said while leaning back on the seat and closing her eyes.

Han Zihao frowned and sighed seeing her personality. She is just 21, so shouldn't she focus on her studies? Is she not thinking of getting into a university because of her bad marks? Or because of the tuition fees?

He has seen the way the Gu family treats her and Gu Zhang had said that he had nothing to do with her at the hospital last time.
