Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

"That's true...but..."

"Don't you want to go to school?"

"No, it's not that. University is pretty easy. I just feel... well, I'm not really sure. My parents are probably going to be more motivated at their companies these days. I'm thinking of staying home for a few years and enjoying life."

"..."

Yu Zhe, if that's really what you think, then there's no need to make a choice.

University will inevitably pull you out of your dreaded stay-at-home lifestyle.

Xiao Meng let out a cute sigh and turned her gaze to Xiao Lizhi, who was sitting restlessly and didn't dare to bend her legs.

"Little Lychee, which university are you planning to apply to next year?"

“Fenghai University! Together with everyone!” She answered instantly.

Xiao Meng smiled at Yu Zhe: "See? In the future, everyone will probably gradually gather at Feng Hai University. Is it for our sake? Hey, just go to school!! Go to school, okay!"

"Cough... Stop shaking me, stop shaking me, I'm trying to think about it..."

Her adorable way of acting cute, pouting her little lips and shaking Yu Zhe's arm, is truly irresistible!

"Brother Yuzhe! I think so too! If you don't go to school and don't go to work, won't you regress in one year, become obsolete in two years, and become useless like me in three years? Listen to me, going to school is very important!"

Little Lychee, she's really working too hard.

In an attempt to persuade Yu Zhe to go to school, she actually offered herself up as a sacrificial lamb in a goading tactic.

—"Becoming as Useless as Me"

She really made me cry my eyes out.

All I remember is that, with them flanking her from both sides, Yu Zhe finally made a decision that day.

Saying goodbye to the planned but unfulfilled joyful stay-at-home life!

"Fine, fine... I'll go to school then! It's just university! I'll just go!"

Amidst the triumphant cheers of Xiaomeng and Xiaolizhi, Yuzhe lay back on the bed, squinting his eyes in deep thought.

Okay, at least for the next year, I'll try out a new life.

Actually... as long as they're around.

Then anything is fine~

63. Rushing to finish work before the start of the school term

Yu Zhe didn't mean to look down on Feng Hai University; it's just that compared to prestigious universities, it's indeed still in a precarious state.

Take the registration time for the start of the semester, for example. Prestigious universities will notify you to come a few days in advance to familiarize yourself with the environment, or you can register early. In short, there is still a lot of room for maneuver in order to integrate into the new campus.

Unlike Fenghai University in our Fenghai City, which starts on September 3rd, they actually stipulate that everyone should register on September 3rd. They don't want to make any extra arrangements even if it's just one day earlier!

So today is September 2nd.

Tomorrow, the school will officially begin its new semester.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Yu Zhe arranged to meet Qi Xinye at the entrance of Feng Hai University, which was not yet open for the semester and was rarely visited. This was the university they would be visiting later.

Qi Xinye placed an advertising flyer she had picked up on the street on the stone steps, then gracefully sat down, pressing down on her skirt with both hands.

This action alone impressed Yu Zhe, who was also from a prominent family.

As the eldest daughter of the Qi family, Sister Ye is undoubtedly the pinnacle of elegance and poise.

Yu Zhe sat down on another flyer, close to Qi Xinye, gazing at the entrance of Fenghai University a dozen meters away.

Today, the place is still too desolate, and the plaque at the university gate has not been maintained for many years, giving it a rather old feel.

Qi Xinye casually linked her arm with Yu Zhe's, and the two snuggled together. The early autumn breeze blew by, and they felt no chill at all.

"I see... Xiao Zhe, you're going to school with Qin Ruoke and the others too. Hmm... I think that's great. If you want to experience life as a normal person, then you should experience your studies in the fullest way. Speaking of which, university is the most brilliant and interesting year of your student life. It would be a real pity if you didn't come."

"Yes, I told my family about this decision, and Zixiao Yuche insisted on coming to university with me. Now that's great, going to university will reunite the whole family."

"Haha... That's normal. They were going to follow you if you went to university anyway. This is just going back to normal and proceeding according to the original plan. There's nothing wrong with that."

"That's true..."

Yu Zhe looked up and gazed into the distance. Inside Feng Hai University, countless tower cranes and construction facilities were working intensively among the teaching buildings and other structures, creating a commotion that shook the entire university street.

This demonstrates the Su family's financial strength. If they say that improving the hardware facilities of Fenghai University is the first step in developing the university, then there will be no delays. On the same day that the agreement was reached with the university, the construction team was already in place and started construction. This is already the third day of the university's hardware renovation, and the brand-new campus is beginning to take shape.

As for why the construction period is so tight?

Qi Xinye felt a warm glow in her heart whenever she thought about this.

"Xiao Zhe, you've really gone to great lengths to make sure they don't see a dilapidated place on their first day of school. It makes me want to go back to college."

"Pfft... Sister Ye, please don't. You're at the age where you should be doing graduate school. Don't keep regressing as you study."

"Ah! Xiao Zhe, are you saying your older sister is too old?!"

"No!! I mean, Sister Ye is mature!"

"That's more like it~ Yu Che said I was too old the other day... that really hurt my feelings... Xiao Zhe definitely wouldn't think that way~"

Yu Che? Yu Che is just jealous of you, Sister Ye!

People are always jealous of what they don't have, you know that?

Yu Zhe also said that among all the girls around him, Ye Jie's maturity is the only one that makes him feel a sense of dependence.

As if she were arguing with Yu Che's words, Qi Xinye and Yu Zhe went out together today, and she unusually wore black stockings under her plaid skirt.

As it turns out... Sister Ye's decision was very successful.

Yu Zhe had glanced at her calves, which were tightly encased in pantyhose, more than once since the beginning.

A perfect figure, unattainable by Yu Che, clung tightly to Yu Zhe's body.

To be honest... Sister Ye's maturity is also very evident here!

Well, in order not to reveal his erotic thoughts, Yu Zhe looked away again and said this as a response to Sister Ye's previous topic.

"Sister Ye, you still say I have good intentions? The Qi family suddenly invested in this project, it was your suggestion, wasn't it?"

"Is...is that so?"

"Your question is already an answer... Sigh, for charity projects like this that are bound to have little to no return, you really don't need to drag the Qi family into it. The Qi family isn't like the Su family, which has just established itself and can't yet... Hmm?"

Before she could finish speaking, Qi Xinye pressed a finger against Yu Zhe's mouth.

As Qi Xinye smiled and withdrew her finger, her long, dark hair swayed slightly.

"You can't say that. When my sister invests in the Su family, is she really helping the Su family? Xiao Zhe, you know perfectly well that this is just a back-to-school gift from me. How can it be elevated to the level of the whole family? It's not that serious."

"..."

Not so bad

— This refers to investing in half of the project at once, contracting three new teaching buildings.

I imagine that Sister Ye's decision must have caused the Qi family a lot of headaches.

However... Yu Zhe doesn't want to complain about anything right now.

Sister Ye said that this was a back-to-school gift from her, and had nothing to do with family. So, wouldn't it be too rude of me not to accept this gift?

So Yu Zhe held up his two sides of dazzling silver hair to his front, nodded with a faint smile on his face, which was considered as acknowledging Qi Xinye's statement.

"Then I'll accept it. Speaking of which, my parents are really crazy... My mom just came back from Kromer and dared to invest in this kind of project with no return at all. Aren't they afraid that the family will split up and kick her out again?"

"That's because everyone has long recognized Aunt Yang's talent. Maybe they even think Aunt Yang must have had a deeper meaning behind what she did, haha...but..."

Qi Xinye's beautiful eyes also turned to look into the school.

I'm a little worried.

"But judging from the current construction speed, it may not be finished by tomorrow... With your school about to start, if it can't be finished in time, then Xiao Zhe's painstaking planning will be wasted."

"It's not a big problem."

Yu Zhe's statement that "there's no problem" doesn't mean he'll definitely make it tomorrow.

Instead...

"If all else fails, we can talk to the school about delaying the start of the semester. Anyway, the teaching buildings are under construction and we can't have classes yet, so it's a minor problem."

"..."

Poor Fenghai University, it really has no status or voice.

Yu Zhe patted his knees and stood up. Facing the vast school, a hint of anticipation flickered in his eyes.

"If it has nothing to do with us, then so be it. But if Zixiao and the others want to study here, then I will definitely turn this place into a first-class institution, the kind that even prestigious universities would envy. Sister Ye, do you believe me?"

"I believe you! How could I not believe what my little Zhe says? You never break your promises!"

After Qi Xinye got up, she patted Yu Zhe on the shoulder, the meaning of which was clear.

"However, Xiao Zhe has always been working alone in the past. From now on, he can rely on us as much as he wants. It's always better to have more people than to try on his own."

"Of course!"

This is not just a promise made by Yu Zhe and Qi Xinye.

And this is the promise made by the eldest daughter of the Su family, or rather, the young master, whose mindset has completely changed, to the girls he deeply loves.

Just watch, in a few days, this school will... (The sentence is incomplete and lacks context.)

At least I need to fix the signboard first!

Before leaving, Qi Xinye suddenly brought up something interesting.

"Oh, by the way, Xiao Zhe, I've set up some pretty interesting things at the Qi Family Manor. Would you like to come and take a look?"

"Fun? Come on! Why not come!"

Wherever there's fun, there's Yu Zhe!

He's an old joker!

64. Plastic swimming pool!

Yu Zhe followed Qi Xinye all the way to the Qi family manor.
