"..."

Jasmine doesn't want to agree to his request. If not so, he will definitely find a way to make the same

request next time. The reason why she chooses to be with Pehry is that she tries to cut off contact with

him as soon as possible.

She doesn't want to get involved with him repeatedly.

But at the thought of him looking for her with an injury, she doesn't have the heart to refuse directly.

Jasmine suddenly feels that it would be better if the person who got burned was her. At the very least,

she doesn't have to be in such a dilemma. He is putting her on the spot.

"Pehry, I don't want you to come to me. Even if you come, I won't be happy, because we will still quarrel

with each other. What's the point of that?" She tries to reason with him.

However, Pehry has got fully prepared for not listening to her at all. "Anyway, you have never had the

thought of seeing me. It doesn't matter. I'm used to it."

Jasmine is at her wit's end, angry and anxious. In the end, she blurts out, "Alright, how about this? You

stay at home and I'll come find you, okay?"

Pehry is waiting for this reply. Hearing this, he cries out with excitement in his heart, but he has to

pretend to be calm. "You come to find me. Are you sure?"

As if afraid that she will go back on her word, he adds, "I'm telling you. If you lie to me, I'll go find you."

Jasmine says that without thinking and immediately feels regretful. But thinking that he insists on

seeing her regardless of injuries, she hesitates for a moment and forces herself to reply, "I'm different

from you. I'll keep my word."

"OK." Pehry nods. "Then you will be coming tomorrow. I will feel uncomfortable if I can't see you for a

day."

" ... I have class tomorrow."

"I have your class schedule. I will ask the driver to pick you up. You can come here directly after class."

"...?" Jasmine is stunned. "Why do you have my schedule?"

Pehry snorts in pride. "As long as I want, I can even monitor your phone, let alone the class schedule."

That's true. How can she forget that this man isn't an ordinary person? With tremendous power, it is a

piece of cake for him to get her schedule.

Previously, Jasmine has a strong aversion to his domineering behavior like this, but she has been used

to it after being with him for a long time. Hearing him say this, she doesn't take it seriously.

He just wants to get to know her by doing this, and won't do anything to her.

It is getting dark, but Jasmine remains fully awake. She can't sleep when she looks up at the man lying

beside her.

After a few fruitless attempts, she gives up and tries to relax herself. Seeing the man's slightly opened

eyes under the dim light, she knows that he doesn't sleep either. Perhaps it is because of her getting

bored or something else that she suddenly wants to chat with him. "Which university did you graduate

from?"

Pehry is thinking about who can chair the meeting on behalf of him tomorrow when he suddenly hears

a voice, getting slightly distracted. "University?"

"Yes, which university are you from?"

"Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania." Pehry replies with the name of a globally

prestigious university. "Why did you ask this?"

Jasmine thinks that a man like Pehry definitely doesn't like studying from childhood. With the influence

and wealth of his family, he only needs to take over his father's business. After all, everyone knows that

his family is quite influential in commercial circles.

In her mind, how can a highly educated person choose to pursue the same career as him?

However, Pehry once again surprises her. Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania enjoys a

reputation in the world, which cultivates many business celebrities and elites. Furthermore, the well-

known MBA program originated from the school.

But what does this man just say?

He graduated from Wharton?

Jasmine is so shocked that she can't believe it. She couldn't help but ask, "You ... are you serious?"

Pehry chuckles, "Why would I lie to you? Or do I have to put my diploma in front of you so that you can

believe me?"

While speaking, he is about to get up and find it for her.

Jasmine grabs the man's arm gently and says, "No, no, I believe you."

He shouldn't lie about this kind of thing. To be exact, there is no need for him to lie to her. Moreover,

even if he lied, he wouldn't mention such a famous school....

Jasmine suddenly feels that she doesn't fully know Pehry. Her only advantage now seems to be

nothing....

This man is indeed much better than she thinks. Although graduating from a good university does not

mean that he has a high moral character, it can at least proves that he isn't an ordinary person,

because it's quite hard to gain admission to this university.

"You got admitted without relying on your family, didn't you?"

"It's Wharton School, instead of a branch department, right?"

"Have you obtained the diploma and bachelor's degree certificate issued by the university?"

Hearing her questions one after another, Pehry feels a headache, but he is more helpless. "Do I have

to tell you that I relied on my family to enter the university and it has nothing to do with my ability? Only

after I say this can you believe me?"

"..."

Pehry can't believe that he is lying with the girl he likes on the same bed late in the night, but

discussing something about school.

Not to mention others, even he despises himself.

He is a failure.

Absolutely!

Thinking of this, Pehry plans to change the topic properly. "It's almost ten years since I graduated.

Rather than discussing this, why don't you talk about why you haven't had a boyfriend for twenty

years?"

" ... I'm not even twenty yet."

"OK, then nineteen years."

Jasmine feels a little embarrassed about this question, but she still replies earnestly, "I didn't meet the

person I like."

"How do you know whether you like or not if you have never been in a relationship?"

Jasmine shakes her head seriously. "I feel that I have to be sure that I like him before dating him.

Otherwise, I'm not responsible for both myself and him."

Pehry, however, disagrees. "You'll never know that if you don't get started. Only with more contact can

you cultivate a closer relationship. You can get nothing only by thinking. You're pretty, but you thoughts

are more old-fashioned than that of our elders."

Jasmine curls her lips and shows disapproval. "It's just that you're too flippant, okay?"

"You're insulting someone from the University of Pennsylvania by saying this, you know?"

Hearing this, Jasmine falls silent. Facing such a highly-educated person, she is not entitled to comment

on him.

"But--" Looking at her distorted little face in embarrassment, Pehry suddenly changes the topic.

"Although you have never been in love before, aren't I here with you now? I can teach you how to love

someone."

"You're trying to teach me flippancy, aren't you?"

Pehry is speechless. "Well, let me tell you, Jasmine. Don't use that word to describe me. Anyone can

say that, except you. I'm serious about you."

"How do I know if you're serious..."

The man narrows his eyes meaningfully. "If I weren't serious, do you think I'll have a heart-to-heart talk

with you late at night, instead of doing something to you?"
