Lin Ruanruan leaned closer to Huo Qi and placed her hand on the keyboard to type her examination admission ticket number. "I think I did pretty well on the exam."
The page froze for a moment, and Lin Ruanruan's heart skipped a beat. Although she thought she had done well on the exam, what if she underperformed?
Huo Qi put his arm around Lin Ruanruan to comfort her, and finally, after the page froze for a short while, the scores for each subject appeared in front of Lin Ruanruan.
Lin Ruanruan carefully looked at all the scores, then looked at them again. She looked at Huo Qi with surprise and delight. Huo Qi smiled and hugged Lin Ruanruan, "Congratulations! You did very well!"
Lin Ruanruan happily hugged him back, "This score is better than my previous placement tests. With this score, I can be admitted to a university in a neighboring province!"
Huo Qi was somewhat surprised, "Honey, you want to study at a university in a neighboring province? You want to go to my alma mater?"
Lin Ruanruan nodded, "After I learned about the university you attended, I did some research. The university in the neighboring province is a key university on par with the capital university. There is a major that I am very interested in, and it is located in the next province, so it is very convenient for me to come back."
I'm sorry, she's just a bit homesick and doesn't want to be too far from home.
After a brief moment of surprise, Huo Qi was overjoyed. If Ruan Ruan were to study at a university in a neighboring province, they would be able to better cultivate their relationship.
After all, he mainly runs his own startup company, located in a commercial building not far from a university in a neighboring province. He plans to make use of the property outside the university so that Ruan Ruan can stay in the house he bought outside the university during her holidays.
Huo Qi thought it was feasible more and more, but he didn't know if his daughter would be willing to stay outside the school on weekends. If she wanted to stay in the dormitory and make friends in college, he couldn't stop her.
Before Huo Qi could finish thinking, Lin Ruanruan looked up at him with a troubled expression, "Brother, I don't want to live in the dormitory. I want to buy a house near the university and live there by myself."
She has a phobia of living in dormitories and doesn't want to confront her past memories again, so she doesn't want to torture herself. Of course, living alone is more comfortable than living in a dormitory.
"I just don't know if I can live off-campus. I heard that freshmen are required to live in school dormitories."
"It's okay. You can stay there for a while during military training, and after that, you can go directly to my house outside the university. I have several properties there, so you can just pick one to stay in."
Huo Qi's eyes lit up. He could just find an excuse to live with his precious baby then, and that would be perfect.
Lin Ruanruan shook her head, "No, I want to buy one myself."
They're not married yet, how can she take advantage of her brother like that?
Huo Qi looked hurt. "Baby doesn't want to live in my house? Does she look down on me?"
Lin Ruanruan blushed, "No, it's just that I'm a little embarrassed..."
"I'm your boyfriend, what's there to be embarrassed about? Isn't Ruan Ruan with marriage in mind when she's with me?"
Huo Qi wiped away non-existent tears from the corner of his eye. "Does Ruan Ruan just want to play with her brother's feelings? So that she'll dump him when he gets old and loses his looks, and then find someone younger for herself?"
Lin Ruanruan was speechless after Huo Qi's sarcastic remarks. She quickly went to comfort him, "No, how could you think that way?"
Huo Qi ignored her and continued his manipulative act, "But our Ruan Ruan wants to sever ties with her brother now and doesn't want to live with me. I was originally thinking that I could cook for Ruan Ruan every day, and we could go shopping together when we had free time. If we didn't want to go out, we could stay at home together. But my plan was so good, and Ruan Ruan just wants to live separately from me."
Lin Ruanruan sensed something was off, but the handsome man's heartbroken appearance was too touching, and she fell right into Huo Qi's clumsy trap, "Together, together, I'll pick one of your properties and we'll live together?"
Huo Qi was no longer sad. Now that was great, he didn't need to find an excuse to live with Ruan Ruan anymore.
Ruan Ruan is too easy to fool. He'll have to keep a closer eye on her from now on. Huo Qi composed himself. "Which major is your darling interested in?"
After Lin Ruanruan agreed, Huo Qi immediately changed the subject to distract her.
As expected, when Lin Ruanruan heard Huo Qi ask this question, she didn't even think about what was wrong. She answered seriously, "Drama and Film Directing major. Although Economics is a popular major at the school, this major is not bad either. I want to study it."
A knowing glint flashed in Huo Qi's eyes. This was the direction his darling would choose. "Want to be a director?"
Lin Ruanruan nodded, "I don't aspire to become a famous director; I just want to film the stories I want to film."
This was something she never dared to dream of before, but now that she had the opportunity, she naturally wanted to give it a try.
Huo Qi expressed his support for Lin Ruanruan's idea, "That's great. Since our Ruanruan has already thought it through, then we can just fill out the college application form."
The two were whispering to each other in front of the computer when a voice appeared behind them, startling them.
Huo Qi turned his head and saw Lin Tianba. "Uncle, you're back so early today?"
Lin Tianba grumbled, "Qi, shouldn't you be busier than me? Why are you coming to my house every day?"
Every day when he came home, he would see Huo Qi fawning over his daughter, which annoyed him.
The key is that he can't say it. This kid is a master of pretense; he feels sorry for his daughter whenever he acts like one. He finally understands what a "green tea b*tch" is; his future son-in-law is a green tea b*tch, and a very high-level one at that.
The more Lin Tianba thought about it, the sadder he became. His wife was also very satisfied with Huo Qi, and he was almost forgotten by his wife and daughter.
Huo Qi raised an eyebrow and smiled, "There's nothing to be busy with. Those things are nothing compared to Ruan Ruan."
He's hired so many people, he can't possibly handle everything, right? At worst, he'll just have to trouble his good brother Li Qin. I'm sure he can manage things well while I'm away.
Lin Tianba was quite satisfied with what Huo Qi said, but he didn't show it on his face. He looked at the computer screen in front of them and his eyes lit up. "Ruan Ruan's results are out?"
Lin Ruanruan nodded, "You're out! You did pretty well on the test, just over ten points shy of a perfect score!"
She lost all her points in math and science, while she got full marks in humanities and Chinese.
Lin Tianba looked at Lin Ruanruan's grades with admiration, "Wow, my daughter has brought honor to our family!"
He read it several times, and finally took out his phone to call Li Shuzhen and tell her the good news.
Upon hearing this, Li Shuzhen abandoned her inspection tour and rushed back, taking the opportunity to boast to the ladies in her circle of wealthy women.
After making everyone envious, he went home satisfied.
These people used to always belittle her in front of her, and even "kindly" advised her to have another child, saying that her own child was already ruined. Now she'll show them who's ruined!
Her daughter is exceptionally talented, far surpassing the sons and daughters of these wealthy women.
