After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, time flew by quickly, and Xu Mu felt like it had only been a few days before the first lunar month was over.

The academy where Lu Feng was located was called Dongcai Academy, named after the meaning of "talent of pillars and beams," which means that the first dean of the academy hoped to establish a school that would cultivate talents for the country. It was the best academy in the capital city, second only to the imperial academy, and most of the students came from wealthy families.

On the day of enrollment, Dongcai Academy was as lively as ever.

After the New Year, Ji Ruan had already taken up a position in the capital city and specially came to personally accompany Xu Mu for enrollment.

Lu Feng came along with them. When Ji Ruan took Xu Mu to the teacher's place, she went to the top scholar class by herself. On the way, Xu Yu saw her and ran a few steps to catch up, blocking his mouth and asking in a low voice, "Have you finished your homework?"

Lu Feng raised an eyebrow, patted the bag on her waist, and looked very proud. "Of course."

Xu Yu was surprised that Lu Feng was able to finish her homework and looked at her with a hint of disbelief. Lu Feng reached out and knocked on her head, "What kind of look is that?"

Lu Feng casually took out her homework and handed it to Xu Yu to see. Xu Yu finally believed and muttered in a low voice, "Impressive."

When the two of them arrived, Sun Yao and the others had already arrived. An Qingle happened to look up and saw her and Xu Yu. He nodded slightly as a greeting.

Lu Feng returned the greeting casually, but Xu Yu quietly looked away and lowered her gaze.

Sun Yao happened to see this scene. When Lu Feng sat next to her, she nudged her elbow and asked quietly, "Do you two have a secret?"

Lu Feng was puzzled by the question, "What secret?"

Sun Yao pointed her chin in An Qingle's direction and said with a smirk, "An Young Master has always been aloof. This is the first time I've seen him greet someone."

"Who said he greeted me?" Lu Feng hinted with a glance behind her, "I came in with Xu Yu."

Sun Yao widened her eyes and glanced at Xu Yu, who took out a small knife and a piece of wood from her bag. Then she shook her head, "Impossible!"

Regardless of whether Sun Yao believed it or not, Lu Feng couldn't be bothered to discuss this topic any further.

With the sound of a bell, the teacher entered the room with a book. After saying a bunch of nonsense, he finally said, "We have a few new classmates joining our top scholar class. Let's welcome them."

There were five newcomers, three females and two males. The top scholar class had the most female students, so when they saw male students coming, the applause became more enthusiastic, especially when they saw the last one.

Sunyao looked at Xu Mu, who had a slight smile and shallow dimples on his lips, and her palms turned red from clapping. She turned her head and asked Lu Feng, "Why didn't you tell us about Mi Jian entering school?"

"He is my cousin, not yours. Why should I tell you?" Lu Feng ignored Sunyao's dissatisfaction and looked up at Xu Mu, who stood in line with the other four people, and smiled at him.

Xu Mu was no longer a child. Standing in front and being watched by everyone, he was not as nervous as the other four. He confidently introduced himself. But when his gaze met Lu Feng's, he saw his wife looking at him so attentively that he couldn't help but smile back at her, his smile as radiant as peach blossoms.
