After Mrs. Lu received a call from the housekeeper in the main house, her eyes

turned red from anger.

She immediately called Lu Jingye.

“They’re too much! Jingye, what do we do about this now? If Yiyi and the Dou

Family were to know what your Grandfather did, what would they think of us?”

She was only worried that Zi Yi and the Dou Family would have other thoughts.

She clearly knew who was the one who wagged their tongue next to Patriarch

Lu.

“Your Eldest Aunt is pushing all the trouble Lu Zhiheng had caused in the

company during this period of time to you. I think that your Grandfather is

also playing dumb. With how he’s acting, he’s clearly trying to stop you from

getting married and force you to returm and apologize to him.”

If not for the fact that Patriarch Lu was her father-in-law, Mrs.Lu genuinely

had the urge to go over and give him a good scolding

“People say that it’s better to tear down ten temples than to break a marriage.

Yet, your Grandfather doesn’t even understand that. He even brought home his

feudal mindset to the family. I think hell only be satisfied after everyone

becomes enemies with each other!

Hearing his mother’s aggrieved and angry voice over the phone, Lu Jingye

gently soothed and calmed her down. “Mother, don’t worry.”

Mrs. Lu said to him, “He had even told the housekeeper to tell us not to hold

the banquet at home. How can I not worry?

“Since Grandfather is not letting us hold the wedding reception at home, we

can hold it elsewhere.” Lu Jingye said, The villas I have in the capital have

been transferred to Yiyi’s name and we can hold it in one of them when the

time comes.”

“But” Mrs. Lu still felt uncomfortable deep down.

Lu Jingye continued to say, “We won’t spend a single cent from the Lu Family

and instead, we’ll use Yiyï’s money. If you are still angry, we can spread this

information out.”

It took Mrs. Lu two seconds before she finally understood Lu Jingye’s meaning.

Based on Patriarch Lu’s personality, he was the type that cared a lot about his

pride. If everyone were to discuss that during his grandson’s marriage, they did

not use a single cent of the Lu Family, and instead, the female side forked out

all the expenses, he would definitely feel humiliated.

When Patriarch Lu gets angry then, Mrs. Lu would have something to rebut

Thinking of this, Mrs. Lu’s mood finally turned for the better. However, she did

not forget to remind him. Even though it is said that we are using Yiyi’s

money, you cannot really let her fork out for the expenses. This concerns

whether our family cares about her and you have to do the right thing by

showing the correct attitude.”

The corner of Lu Jingye’s lips curled up as he said, “Mother, I understand.

Mrs. Lu continued to say, Tll gift my jewelry shop to Yiyi’s as the bride price

when the time comes. T’d like to say who can say anything then.”

Lu Jingye replied, “Okay.”

After he finally appeased Mrs. Lu, Lu Jingye hung up his phone and pursed his

lips. He then dialed another number on his phone.

After the other party answered the call, he said, “You can start taking action on

the Lu Group’s oil mining on the Pacific’s X Island.”

The other party responded in surprise, “You are willing to give that up?

Lu Jingye walked over to the floor-to-ceiling window and as he looked at the

courtyard, Ihe said with some slight indifference on his face, “I can earn these

things back in the future. There’s nothing that I can’t give up.”

The other party’s voice contained traces of teasing. “Lu, many people say that

you’re gentle and humble. Could it be that I’m the only one who thinks that

you’re the most ruthless person ever?

Lu Jingye slightly clenched his jaw. “If no one makes my wife unhappy, I will

always be gentle and humble.”

It has been quite some time since Zi Yi went to M.Uni. As soon as her car drove

to the gate of the campus, those who saw her got excited.

“The Goddess has finally come back to school. It’s been a long time since I’ve

seen her. Why do I feel that she has become slightly more beautiful?”

“She isn’t just slightly more beautiful. I feel that she’s practically glowing”

“Looking at the Goddess, even I have the impulse to fall in love with her.

Unfortunately, no one in our M.Uni dares to provoke her.”

That’s right. The Goddess is indeed the Goddess. She had merely sent out two

medical and chemistry papers and won the International X Prize. She’s too

awesome. I don’t even know who is worthy of her.”

“Doesn’t she have a boyfriend? I bet her boyfriend is worthy.”

In fact, not many people in M.Uni knew of Lu Jingye’s identity. Those who

knew did not deliberately say it aloud either. Therefore, even until now,

everyone only knew that Zi Yï’s boyfriend was very capable and his identity was

not so simple.

Of course, there were also male students who did not give up and felt that they

still had a chance if they worked harder.

When Zi Yi drove into the campus, she received a phone call from the Dean of

the School of Science and Technology.

The Dean was calling her over to collect her certificate.

zi Yi turned the steering wheel and directly headed to the School of Science and

Technology

Knock knock!

Dean Zhou, who was seated in his office, looked up and saw Zi Yi who was

standing outside the door. He smiled and waved at her. “Student Zi, you’re here.

Come in.

Zi Yi walked into Dean Zhou’s office.

“Have a seat.”

Dean Zhou stood up and took out two certificates from his large bookshelf

behind him and passed them to her.

“This is the patient application certificate and the other one is the certificate

that shows your paper has won the X medical research breakthrough award.

There’s also a bonus. Give me your bank account number and I’l help you pass

it on to the relevant departments. You should be receiving the prize money

within three working days.”

Zi Yi took out her pen and wrote down a bank account number on a piece of

paper and passed it to Dean Zhou.

He took the slip of paper and all ofa sudden, his expression turned serious as

he said, “Student Zi, in view of your abilities in the medical field, our school

suggests that you can take part in the Ph.D. examination this semester. Of

course, you can also choose to take the examination when you’re in your

sophomore year.”

The Dean did not forget what Dou Xiaoyong had said before.. Even though he

had personally hoped for Zi Yi to skip grades this semester.

It was a waste for such a talent to continue studying in her undergraduate

studies.

“Also, our university has several major research projects ongoing right now. If

you’re interested, you can also choose one or two projects to join in on.”

Having said that, he handed her a file.

Zi Yi opened the file and inside it was a catalog of the medical research projects

that were currently ongoing

“There’s no need for you to reply immediately, you can take your time to think

about it. The postgraduate examinations will be from December 22nd to the

24th. The retest will be around March to April of the following year”

As soon as Zi Yi heard the dates, she simply closed the file and said, “I won’t be

able to take the exam this year.”

“Why? Even though Dean Zhou had expected Zi Vi to reject him, he was still a

little disappointed.

Zi Yi pursed her lips and said, “Tm getting married on December 24th.”

After a moment of shock, Dean Zhou nodded his head. “This is a happy and

major event in your life and it does indeed require you to treat it seriously.”

Having said that, he asked with a smile, “Student Zi, I wonder if I have the

honor of being invited to your wedding banquet?”

Since Dean Zhou had taken the initiative to ask, Zi Yi naturally would not reject

him. “Sure.”

Dean Zhou revealed an even brighter smile. “That’s good, that’s good. During

this period of time, you can focus on being a bride that is getting ready to

marry. It’s okay to take your time on your studies.”

Zi Yi also smiled in response. “Okay.”

As soon as Zi Yi left Dean Zhou’s office, he typed a few lines in the higher

management group chat, and it was as if he was trying to show off. “Student Zi

is getting married on December 24th. Everyone, she has invited me to her

wedding banquet. I wonder if you have been invited?
