Gong Mufeng said sincerely: "Grandpa, if you go back with us, your life will be more convenient in all aspects. We will also help take care of Wen Lei, so don't worry."
Lin Yuexi also echoed: "Yes, Grandpa, you are old and need someone to take care of you. We all hope that you can enjoy a peaceful and happy life."
But no matter how hard they tried to persuade him, Mr. Xie remained unmoved and was determined to stay at home.
Looking at the stubborn Mr. Xie, Lin Yuexi sighed helplessly, her eyes full of understanding and helplessness.
After thinking for a moment, she gently held Mr. Xie’s hand and said softly, “Well, Grandpa, since you don’t want to, we won’t force you.
I will come to see you once a week from now on. If you need anything, feel free to call us."
After hearing this, Mr. Xie's eyes, which had been a little dim, instantly lit up, a gratified smile appeared on his face, and he nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, with your words, I am satisfied."
Seeing that Mr. Xie had let go of his worries, Gong Mufeng and Lin Yuexi felt relieved and took their two babies back to their house near Peking University.
It was the spring of March. The sunlight shone through the windows, gently shining on every corner, as if welcoming Gong Mufeng's return.
After a short rest, Lin Yuexi knew that she could not delay her studies any longer, so she cheered up and returned to Beijing University to continue her study journey.
In the campus, the familiar tree-lined avenues, teaching buildings, and the youthful faces of her classmates helped her quickly get back to her previous study rhythm.
She shuttled between the classroom and the library, concentrating on absorbing knowledge and trying to make up for the courses she had missed during this period.
As for Gong Mufeng, due to his busy military duties, he has very little time to spend with the children.
Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, he cherishes every moment he can spend with his children.
As soon as Sunday arrived, Gong Mufeng made preparations early and happily took Gong Ziyan and Gong Xiyun to his house near Peking University for a reunion.
Time flows slowly, as if everything is moving steadily towards a peaceful and tranquil life.
Everyone's life is gradually returning to normal, and Lin Yuexi is also feeling the peace in the midst of busyness and fulfillment.
However, the peaceful days did not last long. In the blink of an eye, the first test exam of this semester at Kyoto University was quietly approaching, like a challenge that was about to begin.
This semester, because Mr. Xie suddenly fell ill and was hospitalized, Lin Yuexi devoted a lot of time and energy to taking care of the old man.
The time she had to take leave and take care of four children meant that she had very little time to actually sit in the classroom and attend classes.
Seeing the course progress falling behind bit by bit, Lin Yuexi became anxious.
Fortunately, the study room in her personal space is like a treasure trove of knowledge, providing her with an excellent learning environment.
So, on the eve of the exam, Lin Yuexi resolutely dived into the study room of the space.
She is like a tireless seeker of knowledge, absorbing the nutrients of knowledge every minute. She is immersed in the ocean of learning every day and forgets the passage of time.
However, classmates in the same class and grade did not know that Lin Yuexi had made such great efforts in private.
In their eyes, Lin Yuexi always seemed to be absent from class due to various reasons, and they thought that she would definitely lag behind in this exam.
When the test results were announced, the campus was in an uproar.
The list of grades was crowded with students, all whispering and discussing.
When Lin Yuexi's name appeared in the third place in the medical major, the news was like a sudden storm that quickly swept the entire Peking University and shocked all the teachers and students.
When the teachers learned that Lin Yuexi had achieved such excellent results, they all thought it was simply a miracle.
After all, in their impression, Lin Yuexi had missed classes for too long due to family matters, so it was already difficult for her to keep up with the teaching progress, let alone excel in the exams?
Her classmates were also amazed at her achievements. However, after being amazed, many of them began to look at her with suspicion.
A student who had only attended classes for a few days was able to rank third in the entire medical major. In addition to being considered a gifted genius, some people seemed to have another less glorious possibility.
Coincidentally, Lin Yuexi's seat during the exam was arranged next to the first place student. This was originally an arrangement in the exam room, but at this time it was used as "evidence" by some people.
For a time, rumors spread all over the campus, all kinds of speculations were rampant, and a storm of doubts against Lin Yuexi quietly arose at Peking University.
Soon, the dean received an anonymous report, which stated with certainty that Lin Yuexi's grades were plagiarized.
The whistleblower claimed that when Lin Yuexi was sitting in the examination room, she copied the answers of the classmate next to her when the teacher was not paying attention, which enabled her to get such a high score.
So, when class started that day, as soon as Lin Yuexi walked into the classroom, the originally noisy atmosphere suddenly became quiet, and then a burst of whispers broke out.
The looks her classmates gave her were mixed with suspicion, curiosity, and scrutiny, which made Lin Yuexi feel a pang of pain in her heart.
But she took a deep breath and walked to her seat as if nothing had happened.
However, things did not end there.
During the break, several classmates who were not familiar with Lin Yuexi came over. One of the girls said sarcastically, "Lin Yuexi, you did really well in the exam this time. Do you have any secret?"
The hints between her words made everyone present understand what she meant.
Lin Yuexi felt a surge of anger in her heart, but she still suppressed it and responded calmly: "I can achieve such results by my own hard work day and night. There is no shameful secret."
The girl was not relenting: "Work hard? You missed so many classes, how can you work hard? Did you secretly ask the teacher for extra lessons at night?"
The classmates around burst into laughter, and the laughter pierced Lin Yuexi's heart like needles.
Lin Yuexi's face turned red with anger, and she was about to refute.
At this time, a female classmate who was relatively easy to talk to stood up and loudly defended her: "Stop talking nonsense here! You have no idea how hard Yuexi has been working during this period, and how much effort she has put in to study. What right do you have to accuse her here without reason?"
"Lin Yuexi, hardworking and serious, she didn't even attend a few classes properly. If this is considered serious, then we are very diligent and hardworking. Why can't we pass the exam? This is obviously plagiarism..." someone retorted. "A male classmate shouted at the top of his voice.
"I heard that Xia Yueyao, who got first place, said that he sneaked a peek at her test paper from time to time during the exam..." Another girl added fuel to the fire.
“Whether what you said is true or false…” A classmate murmured.
"If it's true, we must report it to the teacher and have her exam invalidated..." someone in the crowd shouted indignantly.
