Chapter 222 . 20 Days
When Zhuang Xian and Zhuang Hang were done with their registration at Saint Capital University, it was seven o ‘clock in the evening when they returned.
Lin En had been waiting at home for them to come back for dinner. She looked at her precious daughter sitting beside him and asked, “Xian ‘er, what do you think of the school? Do you like it?”
Zhuang Xian took a sip of the hot pork rib soup and smiled, “It’s good; I like it.”
Sitting opposite his sister, Zhuang Hang added, “Everything about the Saint Capital is good, but the annual military training is so torturous! And it’s getting more and more exaggerated with each passing year. It wasn’t even this exaggerated when third brother entered school last year!”
Lin En looked at Zhuang Hang and asked in confusion, “What’s going on?”
“The Academy’s military training time has been extended again. It’s 20 days this time.” Zhuang Hang glanced at Zhuang Xian and pouted. Then, he continued, “I don’t understand what those old fogeys in the Academy are thinking. It won’t affect Saint Capital’s enrollment rate if they don’t play tricks!”
Zhuang Hang was worried about his sister’s military training, and he wanted to complain about the school leaders of the University.
When Lin En and Zhuang Ming heard this, they were slightly surprised. Lin En glanced at Zhuang Hang, then turned to look at Zhuang Xian and asked anxiously, “20 days! Oh my God, are they training you like soldiers?”
Zhuang Xian smiled and nodded slightly. Lin En was correct this time. In Zhuang Xian’s suggestion to the old man, she did want the old man to persuade the school to send all the new students to a military base in the suburbs of H city to train the students ‘physical fitness and spirit!’
A militarized management system and excellent military training could train people’s physiques and character.
In fact, from the big picture, this was a perfect thing. Zhuang Xian did not feel that there was anything wrong with her urging the old man to increase the time and difficulty of the military training for the students!
Of course, she could not reveal this to her family for the time being. This was no longer a matter of hiding her identity. What was more important was Zhuang Xian’s long-planned revenge.
It wasn’t easy for her to gather a group of her past life’s enemies, so of course, Zhuang Xian had to make good use of this opportunity.
Seeing that her mother was still worried, Zhuang Xian chuckled and said, “Don’t worry, Mom. Don’t you know my skills? Not to mention it’s just a freshman’s military training, even if it’s for real, I’m not afraid! It’s only 20 days. I’ll be back after you do a few beauty treatments and have more culinary lessons.”
Lin En gently glared at her precious daughter. She thought for a moment and could only nod in agreement. She couldn’t stop her daughter from going to school, nor could she go to military training in her place!
Zhuang Ming saw that Xian ‘er had already coaxed his wife and smiled. “Hurry up and eat. Don’t keep talking.”
Lin En glanced at her husband and accused, “You only know how to eat. Your daughter’s school is a big matter, and you don’t even care about it.”
Zhuang Ming, innocently scolded, cried out, “What?”
Mr. Zhuang, who felt he shouldn’t have said too much, immediately surrendered to his wife. “Alright, alright, alright. I care about my daughter!”
As he spoke, he looked at Zhuang Xian, sitting beside Lin En, and cleared his throat. “Xian ‘er, how about we play a game in the study room after eating? I haven’t played chess with you for a long time. Why don’t you try and see if Dad’s chess skills have improved?”
Zhuang Xian was taken aback. She looked at Zhuang Ming, not understanding why her father suddenly wanted to play chess with her. She nodded her head lightly and replied, “Alright.”
The moonlight was slightly cold, and the night wind was quiet. From the study room on the second floor of the Zhuang family, Zhuang Ming’s exclamations could be heard from time to time.
Zhuang Ming looked at the Go board in front of him thoughtfully. Two seconds later, he clapped his hands as if he had just woken up from a dream. “I understand the second meaning of your move! My God, Xian ‘er, how can you be so smart! I’ve been using my brain for decades, but I can’t compare to you!”
Zhuang Xian laughed lightly and helped Zhuang Ming, “It’s just that you didn’t put in the effort, Dad. Tell me, what do you need my help with?”
Zhuang Ming was stunned. The words he wanted to praise Zhuang Xian with were stuck in his throat. He knew he could no longer hide it from his precious daughter, and an unnatural smile appeared.
