A pampered young lady from a prestigious family, pampered by her childhood sweetheart, a CEO.

The news of the annulment of the engagement between the Xu and Ji families spread like wildfire throughout the capital.

While everyone was discussing who the next fiancé of the Xu family's eldest daughter would be, the top-tier wealthy Luo family officially announced that the next CEO would be Luo Yunqi, the young master of the Luo family. The inauguration ceremony was scheduled for this Friday, with only three days left until the Luo family's CEO took office.

In an instant, news about the Xu family was completely suppressed and disappeared without a trace. Xu Shuli knew exactly what was going on, and Xu Qiluo and Xu Xiong also knew that it was a public relations effortless.

During dinner, Xu Xiong hesitantly probed, "Yaoyao, about the Luo family..."

"Dad, if you don't want to eat, you should go back to work..."

Xu Qiluo interrupted Xu Xiong directly and bluntly, without any politeness. Xu Xiong was so anxious that he couldn't catch his breath and coughed a series of coughs.

"You really are my ancestor."

"Dad, then we'll be messing up the generational hierarchy."

Xu Qiluo, the sarcastic Xu, is back online again. Xu Xiong is completely baffled. What happened to his aloof son? How did he suddenly become so sharp-tongued?

"Don't say anything, I know everything, Dad. I received an invitation, and so did you. They're all in the study."

However, her letter was delivered personally by Luo Yunqi, who was both careful and full of anticipation.

He said, "Yaoyao, whether you come or not, I want to take this opportunity to see you."

His purpose was clear and precise.

"then you…"

“I will go.” Xu Shuli finished eating, put down her chopsticks, and did not get up immediately. She smiled first, “Xu, the friendship between the Luo and Xu families should not end like this. It would be such a pity.”

Xu Xiong sighed once again that his precious little princess had grown up. He glanced at Xu Qiluo, who had been arguing with him and remained silent, and couldn't bear to look at her.

“Okay, we’ll go together then.” Xu Xiong also put down his chopsticks, not because he was full, but because the brat had taken his bowl too.

"Ancestor, what are you planning now?" Xu Xiong asked, his head aching. "You're just afraid of your sister, aren't you? You treat me like an enemy brother."

Xu Qiluo ignored him, "You're going on a business trip on Friday, don't agree too quickly."

Reminded by him, Xu Xiong remembered that his secretary had mentioned this to him, but he had forgotten about it. Xu Qiluo, on the other hand, remembered it.

"Yes, yes, I really forgot. The leader of the Buffalo Emirate has sent a visiting card several times. I'll prepare some gifts, and you two can take them with you."

After briefly explaining the situation, Xu Shuli looked at her constantly ringing phone, got up, walked to the side, and answered the call.

It's her manager, Sister Mei.

"Hey, Mei-jie, what's wrong?"

"Hey, Shuli, it's like this, there's a very prestigious painting competition going around recently, the Qingya Cup Painting Competition, do you know about it?"

The Qingya Cup Painting Competition is an internationally renowned selection competition, and the top three winners can directly enter the preliminary round of the Qingfei Cup.

The Qingfei Cup is the lifelong dream of every painter, and it is also Xu Shuli's dream to be the owner of the Qingfei Cup.

“I know, Sister Mei.”

“I’ve registered you. You have a month to prepare. First, prepare one of your paintings and mail it to me. Then I’ll take it to the organizer to participate in the competition.”

"Okay, thank you, Sister Mei."

"Alright, then you go and get ready. I trust you."

After saying that, she hung up the phone. Xu Shuli turned around slightly, not knowing where the two of them had gone. The dining table had also been cleared away by the housekeeper. She simply checked her schedule, which was quite full recently.

She exhaled a breath of stale air and then saw the message Luo Yunqi had sent her.

Luo Yunqi asked, "Yaoyao, will you come that day?"

Luo Yunqi: "Yaoyao, shall we go on a picnic tomorrow? To a resort village."

Luo Yunqi: "Are you busy? Or eating? Please reply to my message if you see it... It's okay if you don't reply."

Luo Yunqi said, "Why don't you reply to me? I miss you."

"..."

Xu Shuli changed the nickname from "Brother Yunqi" to "Luo Yunqi" three years ago.

She hesitated for a moment before replying. She opened the small group chat they had previously shared. It wasn't Luo Yunqi who suggested going to the resort village for a relaxing picnic; it was Lin Ran who suggested it. His family's business had expanded again, and this time he was going to inspect it on behalf of his father.

Xu Shuli replied "okay" in the group chat, but did not reply to Luo Yunqi's private message.

Luo Yunqi kept staring at his phone. When he saw Xu Shuli reply "okay" in the group chat, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed. However, his pinned chat box remained unmoved. He even refreshed it several times, switching data and refreshing again.

Everything was quiet, except for his messages.

Luo Yunqi immediately understood that his Yaoyao hadn't forgiven him yet, but that didn't matter. As long as she was willing to come out and relax, that was enough.

My intention was simply to make her happy.

The resort village is a new project developed by the Lin family. It is far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, with hot springs and yachts, and is designed for a lifestyle enjoyed by a select group of people.

The Lin family has always focused on the catering industry. Over the generations, their business has grown exponentially, with branches all over the capital city.

When Xu Qiluo heard about this, he knew that Luo Yunqi must have some ulterior motives. Just as he was about to follow along, his teacher called him.

The temporary teaching assistant was a counselor at Kyoto University. His senior, Zhu Ping'an, graduated two years ago.

"Xu Qiluo, if you don't make up your credits soon, are you trying to fail this semester?"

Afraid that his sister would hear, Xu Qiluo moved the phone slightly further away and asked, "Professor Zhu, are all university professors as responsible as you?"

Zhu Pingan rubbed her sore eyes, took off her glasses, closed her eyes to rest, and turned on speakerphone. She didn't care about anything else. "Xu Qiluo, I don't want to interfere with you. It's just that my dad said you are his prized student and asked me to train you well."

Professor Zhu, the father of Zhu Ping'an, was the teacher of Xu Qiluo and Xu Shuli. He was especially pleased with his wise, intelligent and perceptive students.

When Professor Zhu was mentioned, Xu Qiluo replied helplessly, "I know, I'll go back to class tomorrow."

"My dad will be auditing the first professional class tomorrow morning at 8:40."

Xu Qiluo “…”

"understood."

Zhu Pingan hung up the phone and looked at the pile of lesson plans. She had a headache. Why couldn't she have been more stubborn and assertive back then? Why did she have to obey her father's wishes in everything and do things she didn't like?

"what happened?"

Xu Shuli looked at the invitations the housekeeper brought in, each one more annoying than the last. Turning her head, she saw Xu Qiluo's troubled expression and couldn't help but laugh.

"Sister" Xu Qiluo is taller, standing a head taller than her. She looked a little aggrieved. "Do you know Zhu Ping'an? The daughter of that old Professor Zhu? She's now our temporary teaching assistant, my tutor. She'll be teaching all my courses for the next year."

"So what? The capable should be the best. Peking University is a prestigious institution of higher learning. For Professor Zhu to become a teacher, she must have exceptional abilities. And to be able to teach a group of you, she must possess wisdom." Xu Shuli thought he looked down on Zhu Ping'an because she was a girl, so she couldn't help but reprimand him, "A good teacher is not limited by age. In a group of three, there must be one who can teach me."

"Sis, I just feel like it will be harder for me to skip classes in the future, after all, she has experienced what we have."

Xu Shuli "..."

That's absolutely true.
