Whether Sun Yu did it on purpose or not, Yan Qiao didn't care.

However, she will not be able to continue participating in this program.

Who knows what she might do next?

The production team was caught in a dilemma. They couldn't afford to offend Pei Jingzhan, so they had no choice but to persuade Sun Yu to withdraw from the show.

Sun Yu said with red eyes, "I didn't do it on purpose."

"Whether it was intentional or not, you did it anyway, so what difference does it make? Yan Qiao got away with it this time because she was lucky and capable. It has nothing to do with you. You'd better watch yourself," Chen Ge said coldly.

With Pei Jingzhan around, even if Sun Yu returns to Yancheng, he won't gain any advantage.

Sun Yu wanted to ask Pei Yunzhi for help, but when she returned to the villa, he slapped her without saying a word.

This was the first time Pei Yunzhi had laid a hand on her since they had known each other.

The slap stunned Sun Yu; his ears were ringing and his mind went blank.

"It's fine if you ruin yourself, but don't drag me down with you! Sun Yu, I've had the worst luck in eight lifetimes to have met someone like you!"

Pei Jingzhan not only expelled Sun Yu, but also took his anger out on Pei Yunzhi.

Pei Yunzhi was initially smug, thinking that the legendary Third Master Pei was nothing special.

Only now do I realize that he had previously disdained to care.

If Pei Jingzhan were truly enraged, he could easily make his parents suffer unbearably and beg for mercy with just a flick of his finger.

Although the second branch of the Pei family moved out of the Pei family, how can kinship be severed so easily?

The second wife's businesses outside the marriage also depend on Xun Yue for survival, and they have intricate connections with Xun Yue.

If Pei Jingzhan wanted to wipe them out completely, they would have no chance to fight back.

This realization left Pei Yunzhi feeling utterly defeated.

After Sun and Yu left, the remaining four couples only stayed on the island for a week before preparing to return home.

This is also the longest vacation Pei Jingzhan could squeeze out.

If we rest for another two days, Li Qiao and the group's bosses will come with knives.

After we went out to play for a while, the grass in the flower beds of the courtyard house has grown very tall.

Yan Qiao returned to her original life, tending to flowers and plants, filming videos, and tidying up her courtyard house. Soon it was time to go back to school.

On such an important day, of course, family members should be with you.

Yan Qiao originally thought Pei Jingzhan was busy, so she decided not to let him come.

To her surprise, he was already waiting for her at the school gate when she arrived.

Song Yinsheng and his grandfather felt resentful that he was more attentive and considerate than they were, and they huffed and puffed with sour faces.

Yan Shu nudged him, "Tone it down a bit."

"I just can't stand seeing my own cabbage being eaten by a pig," Song Yinsheng muttered.

Yan Shu couldn't help but chuckle, "Not so fast. Qiaoqiao will still need four years to graduate from university. Your cabbage won't be taken away until at least after she graduates."

This was a promise Pei Jingzhan made to them.

Before Yan Qiao graduates, he will not use any means to force her to get married, and will let her focus on completing her studies.

Pei Jingzhan is almost 31; if it were anyone else, their child would already be running around.

His willingness to wait is enough to prove his love and care for Yan Qiao.

Yan Qiao and Pei Jingzhan walking on campus together were a beautiful sight in themselves.

Pei Jingzhan carried her luggage and helped her with the registration procedures, handling everything personally, no matter how small.

Yan Qiao was admitted to Yan University with the highest score in science, and Pei Jingzhan generously allocated tens of millions of yuan in research and development funds to Yan University.

This gave her the confidence to make demands on the school.

After the military training, Yan Qiao will be able to commute to school and continue living at home.

Pei Jingzhan glanced at the military training schedule; it would last for two weeks and would be a closed-off program.

This is taking way too long.

"How about we skip military training too?"

Yan Qiao shook her head. "I'd still like to participate. I don't want to fall behind my classmates."

Military training is not only about improving physical fitness, but also the fastest way to get to know your classmates.

"It's only been two weeks, it'll be over soon."

Pei Jingzhan leaned down and pressed his forehead against hers.

"But for me, each day felt like an eternity."

Yan Qiao smiled and kissed him, "After I finish military training, the first person I'll come to see is you."

Pei Jingzhan had other matters to attend to in the afternoon and couldn't stay here for too long.

After helping Yan Qiao settle in, they left by car.

During military training, Yan Qiao naturally lived in the dormitory.

The dormitory is a 4-person room with bunk beds, desks underneath, a private bathroom, a balcony, and air conditioning.

This condition is already quite good.

This was Yan Qiao's first time staying in a dormitory. She had heard from others that girls' dormitories were like palace intrigues, with four people in three groups.

She was initially a little nervous.

But after getting to know them, I realized I was overthinking things.

There are more girls in the class, either her fans or fans of her and Pei Jingzhan's CP. They are all hardworking, ambitious, lively and cute girls.

University life went more smoothly than Yan Qiao had imagined.

Aside from the bittersweet military training experience.

Every day after training, Yan Qiao felt extremely miserable, her whole body ached, and her bones felt like they had been disassembled and reassembled.

"come out."

Yan Qiao was taken aback. "What?"

She would wear headphones and talk to Pei Jingzhan on the phone every night. Her roommates were used to it and would even crack some sunflower seeds on her phone.

“I’ve been outside the base for the night. Come out,” Pei Jingzhan said in a low voice.

Today is Yan Qiao's eighth day of training outside the base; the two haven't seen each other for over a week.

Yan Qiao had already taken a shower, her hair was half-dry, and she was wearing pajamas, sitting on the bed massaging her legs.

The training load has been getting heavier every day these past few days, and she feels like her legs no longer belong to her.

"Wait for me a moment, I'll change my clothes."

Pei Jingzhan said, "Bring out the clothes you'll be wearing tomorrow. I'll bring you back first thing tomorrow morning."

Yan Qiao packed her things and prepared to leave.

Looking up, I saw three faces watching the drama unfold.

Yan Qiao glared at them, "Don't be so gossipy."

Then he went out with his schoolbag on his back.

Pei Jingzhan was waiting at the entrance of the base; the formalities had already been completed for her.

As soon as Yan Qiao got into the car, he eagerly hugged her, and the two expressed their longing for each other through kisses.

The driver quickly raised the barrier, keeping his eyes down and focusing on his own thoughts.

Did you miss me?

Yan Qiao was slightly out of breath. "I want to, but didn't you go abroad?"

Pei Jingzhan used his fingers to smooth her messy hair. "Just got back."

Yan Qiao's eyes widened. "You just got off the plane? Then why did you come all the way here? Aren't you tired?"

Pei Jingzhan held her lips close, rubbing them together. He was tired, but he missed her even more.

He pulled Yan Qiao into his arms and sighed, "I really want to hide you away."

Before meeting her, he never imagined that a girl would suddenly enter his heart and become someone he cherished and loved.
