Chapter 509: One Family
Qing An saw his sister seemed to want to advise him, he listened patiently without interrupting.
Mu Youyu's mind worked quickly, she slowed her speech: "Brother, what kind of reputation do you have outside? You know it better than I do."
Because of this reputation, this time you go to Y Guo, why are those people willing to talk with you, and why do they also praise you with Ruo Ya's sister's people? Brother, don't you know this in your heart?
Qing An lifted his eyes, cooperating, "Sister, are you saying they're afraid of me?"
"It's wary of you." Mu Youyu corrected, "They're wary of the M Guo royal family behind you, and of your status—these are all things you fought for yourself."
That's right too—being born well is also part of one's own ability.
Qing An suddenly understood, "Ah, that's how it is—after you put it that way, I feel I'm not so bad either!"
You were never lacking. Mu Youyu narrowed her eyes, turning to her own family, "So brother, you don't need to think you're unfit to be heir; if you were unfit, they wouldn't have let you compete back then."
She still heard this from Mu Xin back then, only mentioning it in general.
Upon mentioning the word "compete," Qing An's expression changed slightly.
Back then he went to compete for the heir's position; speaking of it, there wasn't any grand reason.
He just thought the word sounded better than "prince," and coincidentally he found those few collateral relatives displeasing, feeling they weren't worthy to compete—he was the legitimate prince.
After winning it, he felt proud for a while, then tossed the mess to his older brother and sister, and went off to enjoy himself worldwide.
Looking back now, it was indeed willful.
But what his sister said is also right—if he weren't suited, he wouldn't have been able to beat them back then.
Goodness, how could he be so smart? No wonder those people all say he's a smart person!
Mu Xi finished her work; it was exactly the day everyone was preparing to return home, when M Guo saw a light rain.
Mu Youyu stood at the palace gate, gazing at the overcast sky outside, then turned to Jiang Liangjin behind her, "Can we leave today?"
Jiang Liangjin had already received the news, "Yes, the rain is light, it won't affect takeoff."
Mu Youyu then moved to another side, "Second brother, have you really finished everything over there?"
Mu Xi put her phone away and gave an affirmative answer, "It's all taken care of."
Qing An ran out from inside, carrying a suitcase in his hand, with two attendants following to help with his luggage, "Come on, come on, hurry up!"
Just as his words fell, Ruo Ya's voice came from behind: "Where are you going?"
Qing An slowly turned his head, gave an awkward laugh twice, "I'm seeing my sister off; they're returning home."
Ruo Ya walked up to him, reached out and patted his shoulder, "Seeing them off is fine, but don't follow them onto the plane and not come back."
Qing An shifted his suitcase back a bit, "How would that happen..."
The attendants who had been following Qing An these days: "How could there be such a lazy prince?"
Ruo Ya finally softened: "Forget it, if you want to play, just play; just remember to come back in September."
"These past few days, the little brother has been feeling wronged, she's really had enough—let this bad person be Qing Wei instead."
Qing An rushed forward and hugged her, "Sister, you're the best! I love you!"
Ruo Ya shook her head, lightly returned the embrace, "Watch your safety on the road."
"Got it, got it!"
Mu Youyu waved her hand, "Ruo Ya sister, we're leaving."
Ruo Ya smiled warmly, "Go on, send me a message when you arrive, stay safe."
Several people boarded the plane; Qing An tossed his earlier worries behind him, as soon as he sat down he became enthusiastic, "Sister, what do you think about me also going to C University to study? Then I could be with you every day."
Mu Youyu tilted her head, "Didn't you say you already graduated?"
Qing An spread his hands, "I have graduated, but I can study another subject anyway—being idle is just being idle."
Mu Xi lifted her head from the phone screen, "What would you study? C University doesn't have a kindergarten."
Jiang Liangjin turned his face away.
?
Qing An put on an eye mask, tilted his head, and began to play dead.
September 14, the day C University reported.
In the end, Qing An did not go along to school, but returned to M Guo.
Last night, many in the family group were still grumbling about wanting to come along to see them off, but Mu Youyu blocked them with a reply: "If you come along, we won't need to report it."
Finally, the few who were free only saw the group to the school gate, then drove back.
Song Lujing stayed up all night; when the family was having breakfast, that was his sleep time, and in the morning he replied he'd come again in the afternoon.
Those who came together to C University now only remained Mu Youyu, Jiang Liangjin, and Mu Xi.
The three brought nothing but their phones; everything else had already been prepared for them.
Mu Youyu turned her body, gazing at the C University gate, saying she didn't have any particular feeling.
Already a considerable crowd had gathered at the gate.
Moreover, a few people were hoisting cameras to film; at the instant the lens swept over, Jiang Liangjin reflexively shifted sideways, blocking half of Mu Youyu's face.
Mu Xi spoke up: "Let's go in first."
Upon entering the school gate, the guard's office had uniformed staff coming forward to greet them.
"Miss Mu, Young Master Jiang, Young Master Mu, this way please." The staff member made a gesturing invitation and led the way ahead.
Walking together, even if they tried to keep a low profile, they couldn't hide the temperament they had cultivated since childhood.
Moreover, the three's college entrance exam scores had been reported all over the news; it would be hard not to recognize them!
However, there are still those who don't follow the news: "Who is that? Why is there someone specially assigned to receive them?"
"... the Mu Family's eldest miss, the one who got a perfect score on this year's college entrance exam—damn, she's really good-looking, far better than her online photos; the key is her bearing, that bearing truly can't be learned."
"The gentleman beside the miss is Jiang Liangjin, president of the Jiang Consortium and chairman of the Shen Consortium. This year's college entrance exam ranked him second nationwide, just one point behind the miss—one family."
"One family?"
Childhood sweethearts, you get it?
The one behind is Mu Xi, right? Mu Family's Young Master Two who plays piano, Master Tan's closed-door disciple. Wasn't he recommended for admission? Why is he still coming to report?
Even recommendation requires procedures, you think being recommended means you don't have to come to school? Eh, the troubles of being a recommended student.
I'd heard they were coming to C University earlier, I thought it was a rumor, thought they'd go abroad!
C University isn't bad either, it's also top-tier; the Art School even invited Lin Tingsong this year to be a professor, obviously aiming for Mu Youyu.
Students ahead, please make way, I'm taking a photo...
The staff member led them forward, saying a few words about the relevant procedures, while boasting about their school, finally bringing them to the administration building and opening the door of an office.
The students' procedures have all been completed; what they need to pay attention to in the next few days is the military training arrangements; if there are any special arrangements, the school side will fully cooperate.
Take a look at this document; if there's no problem, sign here, then you can go play—just remember to gather at your respective classes at 2:30 p. m.
Okay, thank you.
After signing, they pushed the door and went out.
