Xu Xinya didn't know what ensued after Lu Guang was called inside the study.

'What did that mean? Did Lu Mingyu know he had been here all along? If that's the case, that Second Master Lu is screwed.' From what Xu Xinya had gathered, that Lu Mingyu seemed to be a type of man who wouldn't like if anyone interfered in his things. And he was also the type who wouldn't even spare his own brother. 

However, before entering, Lu Guang had thrown a meaningful pleading glance towards Xu Xinya.

'Was he asking for help? Should I help him? Nah! What can I even do? Besides, that Devil Lord is scary. I shouldn't be getting myself involved. Indeed I owe that Second Master Lu. I will pay him in another way.'

She shrugged and went back to her room. 

If Lu Guang had learned that the person who had just shown him her great 'gratitude' discarded him the second his older brother was involved, he would have called heavens for fairness and cried tears of blood!

He risked his life for this?!

Today was the day for the result of the university applications she had sent out long ago she knew of Lu Mingyu.

Inside, she excitedly opened the laptop. 

'Earlier I had assumed after setting my foot in this place, I wouldn't be able to get out. In dejection, I hadn't any enthusiasm to even check whether the applications I had sent for the universities were accepted or not. Now that Lu Mingyu is willing to let me some freedom, I can attend my studies'

Xu Xinya opened the website and signed in.

"Accepted!" Xu Xinya was overjoyed once she saw the light green notification. Immediately, she picked up her phone and dialed for Xiao Yi number. However, it could be connected, she received a call from someone else.

Shen Changying.

Xu Xinya's eyes flashed with something as she glanced at the name.

'Shen family was the reason my family was forced into a corner. Although we managed to escape the bankruptcy, we still have fallen from the former glory. This Shen Changying, I don't believe she doesn't know about this. To think that I sincerely treated her as a friend. And when my family fell, she was the first one to turn her back on me. After everything came back to normal, she treated the incident as thin air as if nothing happened, crying pitifully that her family didn't allow her to engage herself with me. I had forgiven her but in the end, it turned out it was her family who started it...'

Xu Xinya picked up.

"Xu Xinya, what took you so long to pick up?" Shen Changying gentle voice said from the other end.

"My phone was on silent. Why did you call?"

"I just checked the application forum. You were in the list of the selected candidates so I wanted to congratulate you."

"Thank you... If there is nothing else, I am hanging up. I am a little tired."

The phone was hung up on Shen Changying

"...Bitch!"

After knowing that Xu Xinya was accepted into the most prodigious university in the city, Shen Chanying was already not happy. And she even had to specially congratulate her on the phone. "All because of my parents. They want me to keep an eye on that vixen. What's so good about her? I have to suffer her arrogance and flatter her"

Shen Zhangying sighed. "All because we didn't succeed in ending the Xu family a year ago once and for all. Who knew they would have a mysterious backer? Now my family wants me to get closer to that Xu Xinya to get some clues on the identity of that backer."

After that Shen Chanying sneered. "But that doesn't matter. The Xu family, it is no longer the same as it was before. I won't need to bother with that Xu bitch for long. They would fall sooner or later. Hehe."
