"I'm going to Beijing to film a movie in a while," Cheng Pingxi said calmly, taking a bite of crayfish.
Mother Wu smiled and craned her neck forward. "In that case, I announce that our whole family will go to the capital for a while until Yueyue's final exams are over."
Wu Yue wanted to say that it didn't have to be so complicated; she could manage on her own.
Mother Wu caught a glimpse of her slightly moving lips out of the corner of her eye and said, "Keep your opinions to yourself, but it's decided then and there!"
"Um."
Wu Juemin nodded, seemingly lost in thought.
"So first, let's choose a villa that's close to Yueyue's school and buy it!" Mother Wu announced loudly.
Cheng Pingxi choked on his words.
Could it be that what my younger sister said in the car earlier, about the Wu family being so powerful and wealthy, was true?
Was it not a lie to deceive Song Ji-bo?
His new home is truly luxurious.
-
Eight o'clock in the evening, at the main residence of the Yan family.
"Xiao Yu, I've already informed them about your exchange program in Beijing. They'll make all the arrangements for you there."
If Wu Yue were present, she would be surprised that Uncle Yan, sitting at the head of the table, spoke with such respect.
"Fifth Uncle, we owe Qiu Liqi a lot for turning herself in last time."
"It's nothing, don't worry about it," Uncle Wu waved his hand and laughed.
Finally, he suddenly remembered something and hurriedly spoke up: "By the way, Xiao Yu! Regarding this painting of Penglai... if you go to the capital, you can go and investigate it if you have the chance."
Yan Chiyu took the scroll and unfurled it.
After a cursory glance, the boy frowned and closed the scroll. The veins on his hand holding the scroll handle were faintly visible, and his knuckles were protruding, with a bluish-white tinge.
"This exchange is perfect, it saves me from having to run to the capital every few days." Yan Chiyu twitched the corners of his mouth, his voice low and clear, carrying a hint of coldness.
Fifth Uncle looked at Yan Chiyu with some worry. Lately, he always came home covered in wounds, but went to class as usual the next day.
He wouldn't say what happened, only that he had been looking for information related to Penglai in the capital. So, Uncle Wu could only do his best to find the painting that he had bought at a high price.
Fifth Uncle opened his lips, but hesitated to speak. Knowing he couldn't change Yan Chiyu's decision, he could only advise, "Xiaoyu, think more about yourself and take care of your health."
"good."
The boy clenched his fist until it turned white, then slowly loosened it.
He nodded slightly. "Fifth Uncle, I'll head back now."
...
...
Two days later.
Mu Lingzhang never expected that just one minute Wu Yue asked her if she had arranged a dormitory, the next minute she and Yan Chiyu would have their own house in the capital.
Oh no, that's not how it's said.
They each had their own accommodations, arranged by their families. They declined the dormitories offered by the school after just two days.
What can I say... they must be rich...
What's with this sudden feeling of envy?
Oh well, never mind.
Let's put the dormitory fees into their scholarships.
Mu Lingzhang held his thermos and took a small sip. Although the thermos contained white ginseng, he looked slightly tipsy and his eyes were unfocused, as if he had taken a sip of wine.
"The weather today is so beautiful."
Wu Minjue and his mother went to the capital a day in advance to make arrangements. Therefore, only the school's teachers, Wu Yue and Yan Chiyu, were departing today.
I took a plane.
Wu Yue glanced at her pale-faced deskmate and asked softly, "Did you go monster hunting again last night?"
Yan Chiyu gripped the armrests of the chair tightly, his knuckles turning white and trembling slightly.
After a long pause, he replied in a low voice, "I get airsick."
Wu Yue could sense that Yan Chiyu was carrying the Red Jade she had given him, but it was useless; the Red Jade had no effect on motion sickness.
