I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband

"I’m sorry Ms. Lee. I’m giving up A University. I will target XiZe University instead."

"But you know that XiZe is the hardest school to enter right? And their standard is too high. To avail the full scholarship, you have to get a score of 99% to 100% in their exam. And you might already know this but in XiZe’s history, the test is too hard that there’s only around ten people who manage to score 99% for the past decades. I know you’re capable but, it’s still risky."

"I will try my best ma’am." Davi understood that getting the scholarship in a school of gifted people was bloody hell. The school was the strictest when it comes to choosing a scholar, but also gives the best initiatives. She even heard that availing the full scholarship in XiZe was the same as being the school’s VIP. Thus, her resolve to challenge herself and pursue her dream just won’t let her give up.

"Sigh... This girl. I knew you will say that."

"Thank you."

"That’s why I called you to come personally. Since you decided to target XiZe, you have to work even harder. Come, I want you to meet someone."

Ms. Lee then brought Davi into a city lab and introduced her to an old professor, Mr. Zheng. She said his student was the one who aced XiZe’s entrance test two years ago, making him the perfect coach for her.

As soon as the teacher left her, the genius looking old scientist wasted no time and began loading her with tremendous knowledge that excited her and at the same time drained her stamina quite lethally. He even made her work and helped him on his experiments while he was discussing nonstop, as though she immediately turned into his newly hired assistant.

Well, she really doesn’t mind. She was just way too impressed on how good the old man was. She could even say that he was the smartest professor she ever met in her life.

"Anyway, how old are you?" the old man asked.

"Nineteen,"

"What’s your IQ?"

"Err... I actually don’t know professor, I stopped taking IQ test when I’m 12."

"Come back here the day after tomorrow, I will give you a test."

"Yes, thank you very much."

"You can now leave."

"Yes prof, thank you for today."

After taking off her white coat and gloves, Davi finally left the lab. And after a while, she was standing in the pathway as she looked at her wrist watch. She held her nape when she saw It was already deep at night.

She then hastily raised her hand to call for a taxi when a black car quietly stopped in front of her. Davi tilted her head and looked at it when it opened.

She immediately stepped back but when she saw the familiar silhouette inside, she blinked and her face brightened before she hastily entered the car.

"How did you find me?" she immediately asked.

"Ryou."

"O-oh I see." Ryou was the one who drove her in the morning but she thought he already left when she’s still at the cafe. Davi was a bit tired for almost standing the whole day, following the old professor everywhere he goes as she listened intently at him and helping him at the same time, so she didn’t ask further anymore.

"Is everything alright?"

"Hm?"

"You look tired."

"Ahh... yeah, I met a really merciless great master," she replied and Sei’s aura instantly turned cold. Realizing his sudden coldness, Davi immediately explained what she meant. "Err... I mean, merciless in teaching. He is good, and I learned a lot," she continued and Sei’s dark aura immediately subsided.

"Uhh... I decided to attend XiZe. So my exam was postponed till next week."

"Mm. Good luck."

Hearing the word good luck, both of them remembered the kiss this morning and they both went silent, causing Davi to reflexively shift her gaze away from him.
