It has been two days since she met Mo Li and Bella was honestly surprised how this body had reacted to the man’s presence. The conversation ended shortly after she declined his offer. Then the man started talking about other things. To her surprise, he didn’t mention his offer again.

  And it somehow irritated her.

  Was she upset that Mo Li didn’t ask her again to work for him? Isn’t that too immature? Bella sighed as she looked at her lunch.

  "What’s wrong with you?" another professor asked her. "Please don’t tell me that your cousin was bragging about her relationship with your husband again. Can you just stop stalking her social media account?" The woman next to her was called Jen Sy. Just like her, she was also a professor at Z university handling Economics courses. The woman immediately became her friend the first time she arrived at this university.

  "I already deactivated all of my social media accounts," Bella answered. The original Bella actually loved to stalk her cousin, the mistress, and her ex-husband. And every night she would wonder why she couldn’t move on. Of course, Lily understood this. Bella — the Original soul loved her husband, and the betrayal hurt her a lot.

  Still, the divorce happened three years ago! Shouldn’t she start moving on with her life now?

  "Really? No…… I mean…… seriously?" Jen widened her eyes as she dabbed the tissue on her mouth. "You stopped stalking them? Does this mean…… I mean…… Are you finally moving on?"

  "I have moved on." She rolled her eyes and took a sip of her coffee. "They are currently in the school cafeteria having their lunch."

  "Oh. Is that why you changed your hairstyle?"

  She nodded. Being a woman is extremely complicated. Just like the weird way that they tend to announce that they are moving on and change their hairstyle to prove it. This was akin to an announcement of the great change in their hearts. While the reason why she changed her hairstyle was that she honestly doesn’t like the previous one, she wouldn’t stop anyone from thinking that she did it for her ex.

  "So…… you are open to dates now? Like speed dating and— "

  "Nope." She finished her coffee. See, this is the assumption of most women. "I think I would focus on myself from now on." Dating? She needed to focus on her quest. But first, she needed to focus on getting back to Lu City. According to the timeline, the reincarnator is already in the City for a few days. If she was right, the reincarnator should have arrived the moment she arrived in this world. Another sigh escaped her lips.

  "Why do you look really sad?" Jen asked.

  "I just— "

  "Oh! I heard something new. I heard that we have a new professor that should arrive today. He is in your department. Heard that he is really good-looking, you know." Jen winked at her. "Maybe this is a sign?" the woman started beaming. While already in her early thirties, Jen was still single. Of course, this was her choice. She wanted a happy and carefree life, and to Jen, that life should not involve any commitment.

  "A sign that you should marry someone?" Bella countered. Her friend does not believe in commitments, but she had the tendency to go on dates every now and then. Of course, this included one night stands. But that was it. She would leave the next day and would never talk to the guy again. "Did you sleep with this new professor?" Bella’s eyes turned suspicious. She remembered something like this happening a few years back.

  It was when Jen actually found someone who actually liked her. After sleeping with the man, Jen left and didn’t think about him again. To their surprise, this man suddenly turned up at the university as an assistant professor! Of course, Jen handled it pretty well as she pretended that she actually forgot the man.

  In the end, the poor man didn’t last for two months before submitting his resignation, leaving the university and Jen alone.

  "What? No! Not to me! But to you, silly! He is in your department. I heard he would teach international studies too. Aish…… I don’t know why you haven’t heard of this. Tell me honestly, did you stalk that ex of yours again?"

  Bella only smiled and shook her head. She had been really busy researching about the leads lately. She had been contacting a few people in the main city and was always away from her office. She heard there would be new people coming in, but she wasn’t aware that it would be in her department.

  "Also…… I heard…… he was very good looking." Jen gave her another wink. "With abs."

  "Why would you know he had abs?"

  "Aish…… we women have this special eyes. We can see abs if we want to."

  "……" Bella gave a wry smile. The real Bella really liked Jen’s personality and somehow envied her carefree approach in life.

  "Now…… if you are done with your lunch. We should go to your department now. He should arrive ……" Jen looked at her watch. "In a few minutes."

  "How did you know that?"

  "I told you …… we women have special eyes." Jen giggled. "Now…… we are going to your office. I needed to copy some files from your computer, so I will accompany you."

  Bella stood and said nothing as she wondered when will she tell Jen that she was planning to submit a resignation letter in the new few days. Bella and Jen were considered really close, she knew that her friend would cry once she knew that she would leave the island to go back to the City.

  After a few minutes, the duo arrived in the office and immediately noticed the assistant department head with a—


  Bella froze, her eyebrow lifted at the white-haired man that stood next to the department head. Mo Li? It seems that the man really wanted to recruit her?
