Mo Shisheng didn't know why she suddenly wanted to confront Shangguan Qi. Anyway, she decided to confront him, since they were going to break off relations sooner or later anyway, so why keep suppressing her temper?
Thinking about it this way, Mo Shisheng felt a little more at ease and walked lightly into the Zhuyuezhai.
In the afternoon, Shangguan Murou brought people to clean the inside and outside of Zhuyuezhai. There was not a speck of dust in sight, and the positions of everything inside remained unchanged.
The familiar surroundings made Mo Shisheng's chest tighten. She frowned slightly, leaned against the door frame, and took a deep breath.
This feeling belonged to the original owner, Shangguan Yan; this place held too many of her childhood memories with her mother…
Shangguan Leiting saw Mo Shisheng leaning against the doorframe, a look of nervousness appearing on his face, "Yan'er..."
"I'm fine," Mo Shisheng said softly, taking a slow breath. She then stood up and walked to the table, sitting down to Shangguan Leiting's left, while Shangguan Zhi sat to her left.
"Did Grandpa force you?"
A hint of worry appeared in Shangguan Leiting's cloudy eyes.
Mo Shisheng felt a warmth in her heart. "No, Grandpa, I'm hungry."
"Okay, okay, someone come and serve me some food."
Hearing Mo Shisheng's words, Shangguan Leiting finally felt relieved. Mo Shisheng's sudden change and her growing closeness to him were already something he had been longing for. Now, being able to sit at the same table with him for a meal was a scene that Shangguan Leiting had dreamed of seeing.
The long table was full of people. Shangguan Murou sat to Shangguan Leiting's right, followed by Shangguan Xuan and Shangguan Qi. Mo Shisheng sat to Shangguan Leiting's left, then Shangguan Zhi, Shangguan Ying, and Shangguan Xue.
"Grandpa, I have something to tell you."
Mo Shisheng raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at Shangguan Leiting.
"What's up?"
Seeing that Mo Shisheng's tone was somewhat serious, Shangguan Leiting also straightened his expression, "Yan'er, just go ahead, Grandpa will definitely agree to anything you ask!"
"I want to give the enrollment spot to Shangguan Yue."
Mo Shisheng's lips, hidden beneath the mask, curved slightly. "Galo Academy also has a special entrance exam. I can take the exam."
"Nonsense!"
Shangguan Leiting was so angry that his beard twitched, and he slammed his hand on the table, making the bowls and chopsticks rattle.
Everyone at the table put down their chopsticks. Shangguan Murou frowned, her delicate brows furrowed. "Yan'er, your decision is far too rash. Gara Academy is the best academy on the Xuan Yun Continent. There must be many highly skilled people applying. With all these rounds of selection, your aunt is worried about you..."
Shangguan Murou left her words unfinished, leaving half of them open to speculation. Mo Shisheng, however, chuckled nonchalantly, "Auntie, don't worry. Since I've made this decision, I'll naturally take full responsibility."
"no!"
Shangguan Leiting glared at Mo Shisheng, "Yan'er, I can agree to anything you ask, except this one!"
"Grandpa, I'm speaking to you, not asking for your decision."
Mo Shisheng answered calmly, raising her hand to hold the bowl and sipping the rich soup.
"You! You!"
Shangguan Leiting was so angry he almost couldn't catch his breath. Shangguan Murou quickly helped him catch his breath, saying softly, "Yan'er, you're so grown up now, how can you still do childish things to upset your grandfather?"
"Is my aunt worried that I won't be able to get into Jialuo Academy?"
Mo Shisheng stared intently at Shangguan Murou, her gaze tinged with coldness.
