An Chuxia tilts her head and inquires, “They’ll be very happy?”
“Of course!” Steward Han taps the steering wheel. “Because the young master scores zero points every time.”
An Chuxia is surprised. For someone so good-looking, he actually gets zero points? She hates to admit it but he looks like the type who’d do well testing.
Han Qilu shoots a disapproving look by raising an eyebrow. “Yes, I test at the last minute. You can go to your department and spread the news. And tell my mother and father. They will reward you with a lot of monetary things. They are your biggest
fans.”
Is she materialistic? She is not materialistic!
Saddened, An Chuxia drops her head and looks down. “I used to take full marks in the whole department but my mother just smiled. It wasn’t a very happy look. So I thought I wasn’t good enough. I had to study hard to make mother happy, and college will be my proof.”
Han Qilu won’t dare look at her.
“Your mother is very happy. Do not be confused about her pride and your ability to work harder. She’s in heaven so missing you is probably her greatest loss. Be happy for yourself,” the steward says with great
great care.
His words gave An Chuxia some comfort but… it got them off topic.
She keeps her head down as she hears silence from Qilu. “I guess you won’t lend me money, ah? Big deal. I’ll put your name on the test paper as a gift.”
Fool. Han Qilu lightly replies as he stares at her. “I’ll lend it to you.”
An Chuxia smiles with excitement. Then Han Qilu adds, “But you have to tell me who you’re going with. An Chenchuan?”
Her face stiffens. Puzzled, she asks, “How do you know I wanted to go with him to get books?” She already leaks the information;
the information; she simply can’t hide it.
As soon as Qilu hears her answer, his expression changes instantly.
“I want to go with you.” He makes a decision shocking both An Chuxia and steward Han. The butler grins. The young master has never been so active in pursuing girls. Not even his previous girlfriend.
“What are you going to do with us?” An Chuxia raises her chin, showing a strange expression.
“I, too, would like to buy some review books. Isn’t that okay?” He glares at her before turning his gaze toward the window.
Outside, he sees two unknown birds fly the blue skies. What he sees is he sees is comparable to what one finds in the countryside courtesy of the excellent environmental protection program in A City.
This generosity is owed to Xiao Mingluo’s elders. Although their concerted efforts are in tourism, they are environmentally conscious. Their business also involves urban environmental protection, and beauty and medical care. They have close business ties with the government.
Compared to Han Qilu’s good mood, An Chuxia’s disposition is terrible. Han Qilu is like a bomb: you don’t know when he’s going to go off. He is a bomb who will be buying things and the thought makes her feel uncomfortable.
