Do You Want to Go to School?

In the early morning...

Qin Fu came downstairs and smelled something faintly sweet. He followed the scent to the kitchen.

He saw Wan Xiaosu in an apron, busying herself by the stove.

The heat from the stove created a sheen of sweat on her forehead, making her look extremely delicate.

He watched her meticulous cooking and felt a sense of belonging. It was a wonderful feeling.

He couldn't even describe it…

Wan Xiaosu hissed and pulled her hand away subconsciously. She had scalded her fingers.

She put her finger in her mouth and frowned in pain.

Qin Fu pulled her hand over to the sink and rinsed the scalded area with cold water.

"Stupid, don't you know that your mouth is full of bacteria? It'll get infected. How can someone like someone so stupid? Ridiculous." His tone was dripping with sarcasm.

Wan Xiaosu wasn't excessively beautiful. She was humble and pure.

Those traits made people want to protect her.

Qin Fu had known many women, but Wan Xiaosu was unlike anyone he knew.

Stupid!

"I'm fine," Wan Xiaosu muttered softly.

Qin Fu gave her a cold look. "Wan Xiaosu!"

Only then did Wan Xiaosu purse her lips, with an 'I'll shut up' attitude.

Qin Fu's movements were very gentle as he gently rubbed her injury. Strangely, it did not hurt too badly.

She could smell his cologne. It was very faint, but it smelled good.

She turned to look at him. The morning sun shone on his face.

His silhouette was haloed in gold, and his perfect side profile made her think of a fairy tale prince.

However, this man was a bad guy.

The light in Wan Xiaosu's eyes dimmed. What a pity!

"Wan Xiaosu, do you want to go to school?" Qin Fu's cold voice rang in her ears.

Go to school?

Wan Xiaosu suddenly raised her head. "Yes, I do!" She really wanted to. She had the opportunity to go to college, but Yang Guifen had deprived her of the opportunity.

This was one of her biggest regrets.

Qin Fu turned and saw the thirst for knowledge in her eyes. He took a deep breath and said, "Study business!"

"Can I? Really?" Wan Xiaosu gripped the hem of her apron tightly with one hand and looked at Qin Fu in fear.

Qin Fu poked her forehead with his finger. "If you don't want to mess around, I can let you study. Study hard and don't do anything else. Otherwise, Zhou Wei might have a hard time."

"I promise," Wan Xiaosu agreed immediately.

"Make breakfast properly!" Qin Fu let go of her hand and turned to leave the kitchen.

Wan Xiaosu gently caressed the spot where Qin Fu had rubbed. There were many doubts and perplexities in her heart.

She wanted to see her grandmother, even though she knew that her grandmother had passed away.

Why didn't Qin Fu let her?

Also, Qin Fu could have easily hurt her. Why did he try to poison her? It was such an unnecessary measure.

And the child…

Now, Qin Fu agreed to let her go to school and warned her not to do anything else.

His actions seemed to be somewhat contradictory.

After breakfast...

Qin Fu brought her to Lake Academy, the number one aristocratic academy in the country.

They offered the best facilities in the world, and every teacher was an internationally renowned professor.

Wan Xiaosu couldn't believe it. She was even a little perturbed.

"I... Can I really study here?" She looked at the academy's door plate, and her heart was beating so fast that it felt like it was about to jump out of her chest.

Qin Fu looked at her nervous expression and felt that she was too easy to fool. Lake Academy was the highest-ranking school in the country.

In his eyes, even that standard was a little inferior.

"Yes," he said in a deep voice, nodding.

Wan Xiaosu bit her lip and held back tears. Tears had already welled up in her eyes.

Qin Fu looked at her in confusion. "Weren't you very happy just now? Why do you suddenly look so bitter? Are you unhappy?"

"I'm happy. I just wish Grandma could've seen it!" If her grandmother learned that her life was so good now, she would definitely be happy for her!

"Don't even think about it. I won't let you go back." It felt like he had splashed a bucket of cold water onto her face.

Wan Xiaosu did not say anything more and simply followed him to the principal's office.

Naturally, the principal greeted him with a smile and called the best teacher to the principal's office.

"Young Master Qin, this is Eliza. She's a top-notch teacher. She has unique industry insights and has had experience with many practical cases. Her background is just a little unsatisfactory." The principal felt a little regretful.

Eliza didn't care about that at all. Who cared where she was born? All the students she mentored turned out to be impressive!

Her students' achievements were also a reflection of her. "Principal, why did you want to see me?"

"Eliza, this is your new student. This is Ms. Wan." The principal pointed at Wan Xiaosu.

Wan Xiaosu looked at Eliza and felt a powerful aura emanating from her.

Eliza only glanced at Wan Xiaosu, feeling a little disdainful.

"Principal, I can't accept her." It was a simple rejection.

Qin Fu raised his eyebrows. "Why not?"

Eliza turned to see who had spoken. With just a glance, she knew that he was different.

That kind of temperament could not be hidden.

Eliza glanced at Wan Xiaosu again, feeling that they did not match. "She's too weak. In the business world, only ruthless people can survive. Her eyes are too pure. She'll get trampled by the industry."

"That's not true! I'm not weak." Wan Xiaosu stood up stubbornly. She had never been weak.

Looking at the suddenly stubborn Wan Xiaosu, Eliza burst out laughing. "Little girl, you're still too naive. You can't just claim you're not weak. What do you think you can do? How confident are you in securing a 100-million-yuan contract?"

"I…"

Eliza interrupted Wan Xiaosu. "You can't do that, can you? You didn't have a chance the second you opened your mouth. Little girl, pick a new mentor. I don't know how you convinced the principal, but I won't waste my time on you."

Powerful people could not tolerate the weak. 

Eliza was powerful.

Qin Fu came up to Wan Xiaosu. "Do you want to stay?"

"Yes." Of course, Wan Xiaosu wanted to stay. How could she refuse? This was Lake Academy.

"Lake Academy has been trying to hire me. If you want to stay, I can consider joining to teach you about business. However, I'm very strict. Think about it."
