The usually willful, childish, and study-averse Third Miss, who only relied on Jinli luck, has one day become so diligent and hard-working?!
Wang Laowu felt he had witnessed a miracle in his lifetime.
He was feeling gratified.
Xi Rubao suddenly corrected him, "I’m not the Third Miss. Our family only has my sister and me, you should call me Second Miss."
"Yes, yes, this old servant was confused!"
Indeed, kicking out Xi Ruzhu, that scheming foster daughter, was the right decision. Xiao Jinli finally understood and returned to the right path.
He rubbed his hands, "Second Miss, you study first. I’ll go wash the car and get the ride ready for the Eldest Miss’s exam."
Xi Rubao looked up and mischievously smiled, "Housekeeper Wang, leave such tasks to the driver. Why don’t you supervise the kitchen and remind them to pick fresh dewy peach blossoms in the morning and warm up some wine. My sister doesn’t like to eat but enjoys a little wine and floral dew!"
"Rest assured, I’ll take care of these tasks," Wang Laowu’s old face reddened. Being promoted to housekeeper was something Zuzi suggested to Gu Qiusha. He never expected, at his age, that his career path would keep widening.
"But this old servant will always be the Eldest Miss’s driver!"
Eight o’clock in the morning.
Zuzi stretched lazily and got out of bed. After drinking a cup of peach blossom wine, she went out with Xi Rubao.
"Sis, mom and our uncle are especially busy today, they left early. She said we shouldn’t be sad and should happily enter the exam hall."
Zuzi’s red lips curled slightly.
Xiao Sha and Xiao Yu were secretly waiting at the school gate to surprise her and Xiao Herbal Fish... Oh dear, sorry, always using Divine Sense, there’s no surprise anymore.
Zuzi gently brushed her forehead with her hand and cast a prohibition spell on herself.
Hmm, this is much better. At least she wouldn’t see in advance the surprise Xiao Sha and Xiao Yu were working hard to create.
Ah, but without predicting with Divine Sense, there’s no way of knowing if the young boy would come or not...
Realizing this, Zuzi had a momentary thought of undoing the spell.
However, thinking again, Bao Gucheng said he was especially busy, so he probably wouldn’t come.
Besides, even if he came, he could only stand outside the exam hall, which isn’t very meaningful.
Honestly, she couldn’t understand those kids, why they wanted their parents to always "stand by" outside with them?
The ancestor had been alone for tens of thousands of years without particularly longing for someone’s company.
Even back then, when her archenemy brother tried to accompany her day and night, she sternly rejected him.
The rain was continuous.
The traffic was heavy on the road, and the Xi family’s car was crawling at a snail’s pace.
Wang Laowu was so anxious that a layer of sweat appeared on his forehead, "The exam starts at nine, and it’s already eight fifty. What if we’re late..."
Xi Rubao: "Housekeeper Wang, don’t jinx it!"
Zuzi smiled charmingly, "Aren’t we already here?"
Although she banned the use of Divine Sense, the ancestor didn’t prohibit herself from using a touch of Immortal Law.
Wang Laowu looked up, indeed, across the street, just five hundred meters away, was Qingcheng High School.
Just a moment ago, they couldn’t even move in the traffic.
Indeed, it was the ancestor’s blessing!
"Sis, the roads are closed for the exam, we’ll have to walk these few hundred meters, ten minutes is enough for us to reach. Watch out, Sis, there’s a puddle, don’t get your shoes wet!" Xi Rubao cluelessly jumped off the car and handed an umbrella to Zuzi.
Zuzi opened the red umbrella and stepped lightly. The water droplets in the puddle scrambled to escape, not daring to cover her feet, obediently letting her step on them.
So much so that her elegant steps left no splashes at all.
In her white attire and red umbrella, like walking on water, she looked stunning.
Xi Rubao was dumbfounded, paused for a few seconds, then shouted, "Sis, Sis, wait for Baby!"
The puddles after her steps seemed to form smooth clean surfaces. Even the Herbal Fish could "walk on water" without wetting its shoes!
Excited as she was, Xi Rubao didn’t notice the sinister gazes fixed on her from behind...
