After this incident, the enemies’ secret forces hidden in the dark were uprooted. At the same time, a clan in Southern Xinjiang who had endangered others with their parasites was also taken care of.

“It’s a pity we have yet to find the people who harmed Yunxiao!”

The whole family sat on the sofa in the living room and Zi Yi expressed her dissatisfaction.

“I now suspect that someone among the higher-ups in Country A might have been the mastermind.”

The others had the same suspicions.

Lu Jianlin said with a heavy voice, “We can only stop here for now.”

For the sake of peace.

They understood the unspoken meaning deep down in their hearts.

However, Lu Jianlin added. “Even though we are unable to do anything on the surface, we can continue to investigate in the dark. If you encounter anything you are unable to handle, you can seek help from Leader Tang.”

This was the largest extent of sincerity to which the higher-ups could give to the Lu Family.

On the surface, the matter seemed to be over just like that and Lu Jingye continued making preparations for his trip to Country Em.

As the Dou Family was rather busy recently, after the incident, Zi Yi’s four uncles specially took off half a day’s worth of time and had a meal with the Lu Family.

On the day of the meal, Mrs. Lu had prepared all sorts of gifts for the Dou Family.

Sometime back when Zi Yi and Lu Jingye got married, Mrs. Lu and the four madams of the Dou Family had already gotten themselves well acquainted. The moment Mrs. Lu arrived, she had been dragged away by the four madams to talk.

Lu Jingye and Lu Jianlin were invited to the study by the men.

Thus, only the female younger generation were left to hang out together.

Dou Yue’er looked at the direction where the older generation members were talking and she pulled Zi Yi’s hand as she asked in a whisper, “Yiyi, wasn’t there another son in the Lu Family? Why didn’t he come?”

Before Zi Yi managed to speak, Dou Yurui teased her. “Little idiot, why are you asking about your brother-in-law’s younger brother?”

Dou Yue’er giggled and said, “I heard that Third Brother Lu resembles brother-in-law a lot. Brother-in-law is so handsome and if someone as handsome as him were to stand side by side with him, wouldn’t that be a visual delight?”

Dou Yurui could not take it anymore and moved to the side. “I heard that being a fangirl is contagious. I don’t wish to be infected by you.”

“Second Sis, you’re clearly a fangirl like I am but you’re still trying to pretend that you’re not.”

“Cough cough… Yue’er, you had better not ruin my reputation or I’ll punish you later,” Dou Yurui said and she acted as if she was threatening to punish Dou Yue’er.

Dou Yue’er hastily ran over to Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling. “Fourth Sis, Yiyi, take a look. Second Sis is turning angry due to embarrassment.” Having said that, she deliberately tried taunting Dou Yurui. “Second Sis, you can’t hit me~”

Dou Yurui glanced at Dou Yue’er. “I don’t argue with children.”

Dou Xiangling and Zi Yi were amused by their interaction.

However, Zi Yi still explained. “Yunxiao has matters to attend to and he won’t be able to come.”

Dou Yue’er held her hand behind her back and pretended to be an adult as she sighed. “Then it’s really such a pity.”

Her tone of voice and posture had caused the three women to laugh.

The atmosphere of the two families seated together and having a meal was pretty good.

After dinner, Zi Yi helped Elder Dou back to the backyard to rest.

While walking back, Zi Yi told him about how the exams went.

Elder Dou smiled and nodded repeatedly.

In the end he said, “Since you are confident, then you must have done well in the exams.”

He continued to ask, “Do you intend to continue studying in Year 1 or will you skip a grade?”

Zi Yi smiled at him. “It’s no fun to continue studying. Year 1 contents are too easy.”

In fact, what they taught in universities was considered simple for her. What she liked was the atmosphere at the university.

Elder Dou revealed a relieved smile. “Since you find it easy, you should skip a grade. However, you’re still young, and so don’t be in a rush to spend all your time doing research.”

“That’s my thoughts too.”

The both of them laughed.

A few days later, Zi Yi, Lu Jingye, and Lu Yunxiao left the capital.

At the same time, evidence that Eldest Master He had killed Second Master He and had framed Lu Jingye was spread out.

The strife between the brothers coupled with how they framed and slandered Lu Jingye caused the He Family’s stocks to plummet in an instant. The number of people scolding the He Family was ten times and a hundred times more when compared to the number of people who scolded Lu Jingye in the past.

The He Family instantly fell from grace and became a target of public criticism.

At the same time, as soon as Zi Yi left the capital, M.Uni released the results of her examinations.

She scored full marks for all her papers.

Moreover, the difficulty of her questions were equivalent to that of a Year 4 student’s exam papers.

Therefore, M.Uni announced that Zi Yi would win all the scholarships for all the majors she took for both Year 1 and Year 4.

The moment this news was announced, there were people who expressed their displeasure.

M.Uni immediately gave them a response.

[Whoever is dissatisfied with this result can attempt the same test questions as Zi Yi. She has taken ten majors and you only have to take the majors you are currently enrolled in. Whoever can get full marks would be given the scholarship.]

There were some people who had excellent grades attempting the question paper Zi Yi did. Even the student who scored the best results did not manage to get full marks.

The voices of discontentment had simply disappeared after that.

Tons of ridicule had surfaced on the school’s forum.

“Fortunately I’m not a Year 1 or Year 4. At the very least, I have the chance to aim for the scholarship.”

“The goddess deserves to be our goddess. Even if I get on a rocket, I still can’t catch up to her.”

“Since the goddess has taken the questions for Year 4, what will she be studying next semester?”

…

Zi Yi scrolled through the school forum with a taut expression. At the same time, she received a barrage of messages from people she was acquainted with.

“I was too hasty. I was only aiming for a Year 1 scholarship and they actually acted without telling me. They’re asking me to start taking projects next semester… I still haven’t listened to your lecture and if I were to take on projects, in the event you hold a lecture, what should I do if I don’t have the time? Hurhur! Even if I’m busy, I will still squeeze out the time!” Lu Jingye tilted his head and glanced at the young lady who was muttering. The corner of his lips unconsciously curved up.

He raised his hand and touched her silky soft hair. “If you don’t wish to graduate so early, you can study for another semester.”

Zi Yi heard what he said and directly showed him the emails she received as she puffed out her cheeks.

“Look, my teacher, Second Uncle, Professor Zheng from the Chemistry Department, and Professor Meng from the Biology Department have all sent me the specific duration of their research projects. The National Research Base for Robotics, Missile Center and Biochemical Center have all sent me an offer as well. I can reject the rest, but I can’t reject the teacher’s and Second Uncle’s offer.”

Speaking of which, the corner of her mouth twitched. “They are banking on the fact that I am unable to reject them.”

Lu Jingye looked at his wife’s aggrieved look and pulled her into his arms. “Then just accept Elder Hu and Second Uncle’s project and that will do.”

“But I have a promise with Leader Tang and it’s not good to go back on my word.”

Speaking of which, there were no traces of the previous dissatisfaction on her face. Her eyes curved into crescent moons and she said proudly, “But I’ve got a brilliant idea.”

Lu Jingye’s lips curved up. He knew that his wife had tons of strange ideas. “What do you have in mind?”

Zi Yi propped herself up and climbed on his shoulders as she whispered in his ears, “Before we come back, I’ll get pregnant with a baby and in that case, I won’t be able to visit many places. In that case, they would feel bad to call for me.”

Lu Jingye caressed her waist with his hand and the curve of his smile deepened. He also tilted his head and whispered in her ear with a bewitching voice, “Since my wife has thought up such a good idea, I will definitely cooperate 100%.”
