Married to a Millionaire

Chapter 13: 013



Chapter 13

After receiving the admission letter from A University, Zhen Bao happily played for a month. There were too many attractions in the imperial capital for Zhen Bao to visit in one day and rest the next. Most of the time, she went sightseeing with Wang Ma, and Fu Ming Shi occasionally accompanied her to stroll once or twice. After a month, Zhen Bao was now a little familiar with the imperial capital.

In August, Zhen Bao began to settle down. She searched online and found that all freshmen had to take calculus, so she bought a calculus textbook with supplementary exercises and started self-studying at home while continuing to strengthen her English. Every night, Fu Ming Shi would spend half an hour teaching her how to use various office software and make up for her lack of knowledge about modern devices.

In short, Zhen Bao had a very fulfilling summer vacation this time.

Tomorrow, Zhen Bao would go to A University to report. Fu Ming Shi was busy at the company in the morning, then drove back to the villa, planning to accompany Zhen Bao for the whole afternoon.

"I'll take you there tomorrow morning," Fu Ming Shi said at dinner, stating it matter-of-factly.

Zhen Bao's chewing slowed, and she swallowed the food in her mouth. She was embarrassed, "Didn't we agree not to announce it yet?"

Having a fiancé as soon as she entered university felt strange. If it was another girl in this situation, she would definitely be curious about the inside story.

"College students can have boyfriends and girlfriends. I'll just say I'm your boyfriend," Fu Ming Shi slowly cut the steak, then instead of hurrying to eat it, he held up the steak with his fork and asked Zhen Bao, "If I say I'm a sophomore at T University, would you believe me?"

This question was so strange that Zhen Bao glanced at his brand-name shirt and custom-made leather shoes, and couldn't help but curl her lips. "Do sophomores dress like you?"

"I meant age," Fu Ming Shi put the steak in his mouth elegantly.

Zhen Bao looked at his face again, withdrew her gaze, and nodded, "I guess I'd believe it." Those male stars in their thirties on TV playing college students looked quite believable to her. If Fu Ming Shi hadn't told her his real age, Zhen Bao wouldn't have been able to guess how old he was exactly.

Fu Ming Shi chuckled lightly, glanced upstairs, "I bought some casual clothes of ordinary brands. I'll wear them when I go to A University to see you in the future. As long as you don't tell others who I am, even if someone recognizes me as the CEO of Shengshi Group, I can deny it and just say we look alike. After all, amongst a bunch of college students, no one should recognize me."

Zhen Bao didn't like high-profile behavior, so he would let her have a carefree college life.

"If you’re a sophomore and I’m a freshman, how did we get to know each other?" Zhen Bao gently bit her chopsticks, trying to find fault.

"Just say we live in the same community and officially started dating this summer,” Fu Ming Shi imagined spending the next few years dating her in college, and he was rather looking forward to it.

Zhen Bao just wanted to focus on studying. Fu Ming Shi's plan didn't seem to have any flaws, but she couldn't understand why it had to be done this way.

"Why do you have to pretend to be my boyfriend?" Zhen Bao lowered her head and poked at the rice in her bowl. She always felt that students who didn't date were better students.

"Beautiful women never lack suitors. When others see you already have an owner, they won't pursue you anymore, and you can focus on your studies." Fu Ming Shi sounded reasonable, then gave Zhen Bao a meaningful glance, "Or do you want to attract more suitors?"

He praised her as a beauty again and randomly guessed she was vain. Zhen Bao's face turned red as she denied, "I didn't think that, and I don't have that many people who like me." Having lived in the imperial capital for so long, Zhen Bao had seen many beauties when she went out, not only beautiful but also fashionably dressed. Compared to the beauties of the big city, she was just a country bumpkin. Who would like her?

"Better safe than sorry. It's better to refuse in advance than to reject someone after they confess, otherwise you won't even be able to be classmates." She wanted a bicycle, she wanted to study veterinary medicine at A University, and Fu Ming Shi respected her choices, but this time, he would absolutely not give in. A girl like Zhen Bao could be the campus belle no matter which university she entered. There would definitely be people who wanted to pursue her. He would stake his claim early to avoid a lot of trouble.

Since he even used the idiom "better safe than sorry", what else could Zhen Bao say?

In order to satisfy Zhen Bao's wish for a low profile, Fu Ming Shi deliberately called a taxi to take her to A University the next day.

"There's a traffic jam ahead. Can you get off here?" About one intersection away from the A University gate, the driver looked at the traffic ahead and turned back to ask.

"Sure, here is fine," Zhen Bao was very easygoing and readily agreed.

The driver stopped the car. Zhen Bao got off first, carrying a bag of a regular brand. She wore denim shorts and a white T-shirt. If you didn't look at her face, she would blend seamlessly into the crowd. Fu Ming Shi got out of the car behind her, wearing a pair of sneakers on his feet, gray pants and a white T-shirt on top, and a tennis cap on his head. He really looked like a handsome schoolmate.

He took Zhen Bao's pink suitcase out of the trunk and dragged it along in one hand while very naturally holding Zhen Bao's little hand in the other. The people coming and going on the roadside were mostly new students and parents. Zhen Bao's face turned red as she tried to shake off his hand, but Fu Ming Shi not only did not let go, he even pulled her closer to his side and said while looking ahead, "There are too many people, don't get lost."

Zhen Bao explained in a low voice, "I won't get lost." She wasn't a child.

Fu Ming Shi held her tightly, "I'm worried, I'll let go when there are fewer people on campus."

Zhen Bao pursed her lips and conceded.

There were many big red banners welcoming new students erected on campus. Each college had set up a welcome spot. Fu Ming Shi quickly found the sign for the College of Animal Medicine among the crowd.

He led Zhen Bao in that direction, still holding her hand.

"Okay, that's enough..." As they got closer and closer, Zhen Bao struggled again.

Fu Ming Shi finally let go of her.

In addition to a counselor, the others welcoming new students were volunteer sophomores, both male and female. Seeing Fu Ming Shi and Zhen Bao from afar, the senior sisters silently adored Fu Ming Shi in their hearts, while the senior brothers regretted that the new beautiful junior sister was already taken.

With Fu Ming Shi accompanying her, Zhen Bao's enrollment went very smoothly. After collecting the items, the two headed straight for the dorm building. The dorm aunt stopped them and asked Fu Ming Shi to register before going up, and said that only today he could send new students, but in the future, male students were not allowed to enter the female dormitory.

With a hint of inexplicable smile at the corner of his mouth, Fu Ming Shi signed the registration form with the name Shi Ming.

Standing on the side, Zhen Bao felt this person was really boring, not CEO-like at all.

"Let's go," Fu Ming Shi picked up the suitcase and let her walk in front.

Zhen Bao lived on the third floor, in room 307. When they found the room number, the door was already open. Peeking in, there was someone inside.

"Do you live here too?" an young girl wearing super short shorts and a bun hairstyle asked excitedly.

Guessing this was her new roommate, Zhen Bao nodded shyly.

Jia Xiao Yu had already run out and was about to introduce herself when she saw the tall, handsome guy who had been standing to the side of the door all along. Jia Xiao Yu suddenly covered her mouth, her eyes full of amazement, looking back and forth between Fu Ming Shi and Zhen Bao, even more excited than seeing a celebrity.

Zhen Bao was extremely embarrassed.

Fu Ming Shi greeted this new roommate generously, "Hello, I'm Zhen Bao's boyfriend, a student at T University. I hope you can help take care of Zhen Bao in the future. She's a bit silly and doesn't understand a lot of things."

Who was silly? Zhen Bao didn't like hearing that, and glared at him.

Fu Ming Shi lowered his head, his gaze gentle as he looked back at her.

"Ahhh I can't stand it anymore! Zhen Bao, your boyfriend is so handsome!" Witnessing a beautiful couple flirting with her own eyes, Jia Xiao Yu couldn't help but hug Zhen Bao. She was both envious and happy. Although the handsome guy wasn't hers, eye candy was still eye candy.

Zhen Bao could only tacitly agree.

Jia Xiao Yu's parents were also there, one helping their daughter make the bed, the other cleaning the balcony. Zhen Bao politely called them Auntie and Uncle, then at Jia Xiao Yu's suggestion, she chose the bed next to hers.

"You can leave first, I can take care of the rest myself," with parents around, Zhen Bao was even more eager to send Fu Ming Shi away quickly.

"I'll help you make the bed," Fu Ming Shi glanced at Jia Xiao Yu's dad who was helping make her bed, then briskly took off his shoes and climbed onto the bed.

"Best boyfriend ever!" Jia Xiao Yu wanted to take pictures of Fu Ming Shi with her phone.

Zhen Bao quickly dissuaded her, tactfully expressing that she didn't want to take photos. Jia Xiao Yu could tell she was shy, and readily put away her phone. Then she left with her parents to go eat at the cafeteria first. Only the two of them were left in the dorm. Zhen Bao looked up at Fu Ming Shi and asked, "Do you know how?"

"Give me the mosquito net," Fu Ming Shi made her mattress and comforter neatly, then reached out to her.

Zhen Bao took out the mosquito net from the big package provided by the school and handed it to him.

After everything was done, Fu Ming Shi went to the bathroom to wash his hands. When he came out, he asked Zhen Bao, "Go to the cafeteria?"

Zhen Bao looked at him in surprise.

Fu Ming Shi smiled, "I'm hungry. I'll leave after eating."

Zhen Bao was waiting for him to leave, but now that Fu Ming Shi brought it up first, she felt a little guilty. After all, Fu Ming Shi had helped her so much, willingly. Recalling that Jia Xiao Yu was going to tour the campus with her parents after leaving, Zhen Bao quietly asked while taking her bag, "Do you...want to walk around campus?"

Fu Ming Shi's gaze became deep, and it was a long time before he agreed, "Okay."

After locking the door, the two went downstairs again.

Fu Ming Shi first took Zhen Bao to top up her meal card. Zhen Bao rushed ahead of him to take out a red bill and topped up 100 first.

Fu Ming Shi frowned, worried that she was saving money on food.

Sure enough, when they got to the cafeteria, Zhen Bao only ordered two cheap vegetarian dishes. There were people lining up behind them, so Fu Ming Shi didn't say anything to her for now. When it was his turn to order, Fu Ming Shi ordered three meat dishes in one go. Zhen Bao stood outside the line with her tray, waiting for him, and when she saw the dishes in Fu Ming Shi's tray, she subconsciously estimated the price.

With one hundred bucks gone just like that, Zhen Bao felt a little pain.

"We'll go top up again later," Fu Ming Shi put the meal card into his pocket and said in a low voice.

"No need, no need..." Zhen Bao quickly refused. She just felt bad spending money, but didn't mean that she minded him ordering expensive food.

"From now on, order at least one meat dish per meal. I will ask your roommate to help me supervise you. If you dare not eat properly, I will tell them our real relationship," Fu Ming Shi sat down, then coldly threatened as he transferred the braised fish on his tray to Zhen Bao's side.

Zhen Bao pouted.

"You can wear cheap clothes, but you can't skimp on food. Don't let the old master worry," Fu Ming Shi softened his tone and put a few more shrimps on her tray.

Thinking of the old master who video chatted with her regularly, Zhen Bao finally nodded.

After the meal, on the way to take a walk, Fu Ming Shi grabbed Zhen Bao's wrist and went back to the meal card recharge point, charging a five digit amount in one go.
