They stayed in the vegetable garden for the whole afternoon, and only went back slowly when it got dark.
On the way, I happened to meet An Yiyao and his friends after class.
Seeing An Ci, An Yang was slightly surprised, "Didn't you return to the imperial capital?"
"Just got back yesterday." An Ci raised the corner of his mouth, "Are you guys done with get out of class?"
Anyang shook his head, "Let's go have dinner. I have classes tonight."
"You have classes tonight?" Eric interrupted, his tone filled with disbelief. "What time do you have classes until?"
Chen Lian and Eric had met each other during the past few days, and Anyang and the others also knew his identity.
Anyang said, "Half past nine."
"Weekends too?" Eric broke into a voice.
Anyang chuckled as if he had heard a joke, "There are no weekends when we're in school here."
Eric was struck by lightning. He was not even allowed to spend his weekend. Is this fair?
Seeing that he looked like he was about to cry, An Yang thought he had said something wrong and looked at An Ci inquiringly, "What's wrong with him?"
An Ci suppressed a smile, "It's okay, he just has a stomachache."
Anyang said, "Oh," and asked, "Do you want to go eat together?"
"No, we're not hungry yet." An Ci said, "You guys go ahead."
After seeing Anyang and his companions off, An Ci was about to go back when a hand suddenly grabbed the corner of his clothes.
She tilted her head and looked at Eric, "What?"
"Why don't you help me book a plane ticket to the capital." Eric said miserably.
An Ci snorted and laughed, "If I had this ability, I would have slipped away long ago, and it would not be your turn."
Not to mention that the manor was heavily guarded. Even if they could slip away, they would probably be caught by her grandfather as soon as they arrived in the imperial capital.
Eric let go, "What should I do?"
"Accept your fate." After saying that, An Ci walked away.
Seeing this, Eric hurriedly chased after him, "Hey, wait for me."
…
The next day.
An Ci stayed in bed late and got up, and Eric also overslept. When An Zhenxiong heard that they did not go for morning exercise, he was so angry that he rushed over and knocked on the doors of every room.
A moment later, the two of them came into the living room with messy hair and wearing slippers, looking as if they were still half asleep.
"You two stand still." An Zhenxiong picked up a feather duster and knocked on the table.
An Ci rubbed his eyes and admitted his mistake faster than a rocket launch, "Grandpa, I know I was wrong."
She poked Eric's waist with her hand behind her back, and Eric was not stupid enough, so she quickly said, "Grandpa, I know I was wrong too."
An Zhenxiong snorted coldly, "What's wrong?"
"We shouldn't have overslept and missed morning exercise." An Ci lowered his head and said very sincerely.
Eric, "Me too."
Seeing the two people's little tricks, An Zhenxiong said unhappily, "You've become lazy again after returning to the capital. In my opinion, it's better to go back less often in the future."
Upon hearing this, An Ci suddenly woke up. With a smile on her face, she approached him and handed him the teacup on the table. "Grandpa, I'm still jet-lagged. I promise to go for morning exercise tomorrow. Seriously, I swear."
Everything can be discussed, but we cannot prevent her from returning to the imperial capital.
An Zhenxiong glanced at her sideways, "Haven't you sworn enough?"
Swearing is like eating cabbage, you forget it after you eat it.
"I, I promise to do it this time." An Ci raised three fingers.
"If you don't do it this time, don't even think about going back during the New Year." After saying that, he took the teacup and took a sip of tea slowly.
An Ci nodded repeatedly.
After finishing one, An Zhenxiong looked at his other grandson with a serious face, "Eric, you have to study hard when you come here. If you can't pass the exam before you go back for summer vacation, you will have to stay here."
What? You don’t even give him a chance to fish in troubled waters?
Is it so inhumane?
Eric's eyes widened and he asked anxiously, "What if I can't pass the exam?"
An Zhenxiong said, "Then don't go back to Country Y."
Eric instantly wilted, but An Zhenxiong didn't give him a chance to feel sad. "Hurry up and eat your breakfast, both of you, and go to class. If you dare to skip class again, your phones will be confiscated."
Upon hearing that their phones were going to be confiscated, An Ci and Eric looked at each other and hurried upstairs.
Just kidding, it’s bad enough to go to class every day, and if my phone was confiscated, I would be dead.
…
After breakfast, the two hurried to the classroom. When they arrived, the class had already started.
Not familiar with the others, Eric moved the table and chairs to sit next to An Ci.
The teacher didn't say anything about this, but just told them not to be late next time.
An Ci took out his textbook and put it on the table, then he held his chin with one hand and habitually lost his mind.
Perhaps An Zhenxiong's words that he could not return to Country Y if he failed the exam worked, Eric seemed much more honest this time and listened to the teacher's lecture attentively.
After a long time, the long class finally ended. As soon as the teacher left, Anyang immediately turned around and said to An Ci, "Why didn't you come to morning exercises this morning? I thought you weren't coming to class today."
"I overslept." An Ci replied and turned to look at Eric, who was actually busy writing notes.
She smiled playfully, "Oh, cousin, you're so serious."
Eric looked up and rolled his eyes at her, "How dare I not be serious?"
He doesn't want to stay here without freedom.
He glanced at her desk. The textbook was cleaner than his face. "You didn't remember a single word?"
"Why would someone who ranked last in the exam still take notes?" An Yiheng said sarcastically.
An Ci was too lazy to pay attention to him. Instead, Eric was annoyed. He looked at An Yang and raised his chin. "What's wrong with me getting last on the test? Did I eat your rice? It's none of your business."
