Chapter 479 - He is no longer a young kid (1/2)

”Hmm…?”

Rebecca's shoulders dropped in defeat. She really was tongue-tied when she faced Ryn. Should she say sorry or should she…

”You're not going home during the break?” Ryn asked. It was after all their break before they started the next term. But, unlike Rebecca, Ryn would start her training, just like Harry. But no one knew about it. She went to meet the dean and discussed how she could shorten her study. She could no longer wait to graduate.

And she went straight for three more exams in between her gigs. It was a wonder how she could squeeze all those notes she got from one of the seniors before the papers. Luckily she was used to cramping everything before the exam so she had the confidence she would score those papers. She did not hope to get an award for her result, just enough for her to graduate.

”Err… no… I… I'm working part-time,” Rebecca replied. She worked at the café not far from the apartment. She wanted to pool some money for her study and did not want to inconvenience her family with her tuition fee. Unlike Irene, she was not from a rich family and she still has several siblings after her that were still in school.

”Good for you,” Ryn nodded her head. It was not a surprise for the university students to work part-time to get some money and some experience. Even she considered her modeling as part-time, hence the reason why she gave conditions to Mei Li before she agreed to sign the contract. But, as she felt like she could cover her study and her work at the same time, gradually she added more contracts to do as long as it did not disturb her study. Even when she did not come to class, she could understand the subject thanks to Mika who gave her the old notes from her study.

Hmm… maybe she should bake more than one cake for Mika to thank her for those notes.

”Ryn… I…”

”Bye, Rebecca. See you later,” Ryn said once the door was closed before Rebecca could finish her words. She waved and walked toward the car Mei Li was waiting at.

”Why are you late? Did you wash your hair?” Mei Li asked when she saw the appearance Ryn had today. Her eyes stuck at the bulged cap on Ryn's head. Ryn only did that when she was too lazy to brush her hair. That style or the messy high topknot style.

”Didn't have the time,” Ryn shrugged. She wasted so much time because of her headache.

Mei Li sighed. She opened the back door and rummaged in the several bags she kept there. She took out a bottle and handed it to her.

”Dry shampoo? Are you kidding me?” Ryn asked when she read the label.

”Don't go to work with smelly hair,” Mei Li reminded.

Ryn's lips curled at the words. She did not think her hair was that bad. She always washed her hair. She only forgot to do so yesterday because she was too sleepy. Besides, with all the chemicals sprayed on her hair when setting it for the shoot, she did not think anyone could smell the bad odor anymore… if she had it by the way.

Mei Li pointed at the passenger seat in front. ”Get inside. We can't be late for work.”

Ryn threw and caught the bottle without another word. She followed Mei Li's order and went to sit at the passenger seat beside the driver's seat while Mei Li took the driver's seat. She placed her bag on her l.a.p and pulled the safety belt around her waist. Then, she looked at the dry shampoo before putting it at the back. She did not plan to use it. Besides, after work, she planned to wash her hair and then practiced the song. She had no doubt Jeremy would stop by to help her packing some of her things. Was it two or three more days before she would move out of the house?

She was so busy she could not catch up with her own schedule.

”Do you want me to accompany you when you're moving?” Mei Li asked suddenly. It was as if she knew what was in Ryn's mind.
