"Nancheng University?"
The name printed on the package surprised Xu Zhe greatly.
She quickly tore open the hard seal and revealed the admission notice inside.
how so?!
She clearly applied to the Chemistry Department of Beidu University!
Why did I receive an admission letter from Nancheng University for Finance?!
Xu Zhe checked again; her name was on the admission notice.
There's only one possibility...
She's going to call Xu Zhengxi!
Xu Zhe never calls him first. His status is special, and he is busy with official duties. She has long been used to staying at home and waiting for him to come home before she talks to him.
But this time, she was determined to find out the answer immediately, right now!
Are you busy?
The call was successfully connected.
"you say."
On Xu Zhengxi's end, he could hear the voices of people around him.
He was busy, but he still answered the call.
Xu Zhe tightened his grip on his phone.
Why did I receive an admission letter from Nancheng University?
Xu Zhengxi remained silent for a moment, and then the sounds of footsteps and other people talking gradually faded away.
He walked to a place where there was no one.
"I signed up."
Xu Zhengxi answered, her voice steady.
"You changed my college application?!"
Xu Zhe's voice involuntarily rose.
She knew perfectly well that besides Xu Zhengxi, who else could arbitrarily change her college application?!
"Why?!"
Xu Zhe's score was more than enough to get into Peking University, a top university in China that many students aspire to attend.
She didn't understand why Xu Zhengxi wanted her to go to such a faraway place when they were all in Beidu.
"Next month, I will be transferred to the Lingnan Provincial Government. You will come with me."
The voice on the other end was as calm as ever.
Lingnan?
Xu Zhe's voice trembled slightly.
Nancheng University is located in the capital of Lingnan Province.
Lingnan... that nightmarish place, the south she would rather freeze in the north than return to.
"I don't want to go to Lingnan."
Xu Zhe's voice weakened, and fear made it hard for her to breathe.
"I'm here, you don't need to be afraid," Xu Zhengxi said calmly.
Xu Zhe stared down at the ground, head down: "Could I...?"
She still wanted to try.
"cannot."
Xu Zhengxi refused before she could finish speaking.
"Xu Zhengxi!" Xu Zhe couldn't help but call him by his full name.
The other end of the phone went silent, and the housekeeper and servants around her were too frightened to utter a sound.
"You call me that so naturally?" Xu Zhengxi chuckled. "Next time in bed, call me that!"
After the call ended, Xu Zhe stood there, frozen in place.
She didn't understand why Xu Zhengxi had suddenly changed.
He used to only demand good grades and that she follow the rules. But just when she was being raised to be obedient, he broke the rules she had always upheld...
Lingnan is the place where she died once.
Xu Zhengxi saved her and took her away. Now he wants to take her back...
Xu Zhe stayed in her room for two days, like a corpse, until that person came to find her.
Xu Zhe finally regained some energy, picked out a lotus root-colored long dress, and applied only apricot-colored lip gloss before heading to the appointment.
As soon as I stepped out the door, the butler followed me:
"Miss Zhe, are you going out?"
Xu Zhe stopped: "I'm browsing in a bookstore with my classmates."
At that moment, she was unaware of how strict Xu Zhengxi's words that night, "You are not allowed to go again," were.
The butler approached Xu Zhe, his attitude remaining respectful:
“Miss Zhe, the young master instructed before his business trip that you are not allowed to go out with your classmates.”
Xu Zhe stood on the front porch, calmly looking at the butler:
"Butler Zhou, just tell the young master that I'm crazy and uncontrollable, and I've already gone on a date with my classmates."
