Chapter 1503: Chapter 722 Double Preparation
The moment Yan Fei thought he might have been "deceived" by Chief Pi, he held the phone and suddenly realized a big problem: crap, he had returned too quickly!
Indeed, it was a mistake made in haste, as he first thought of coming back to check because he was worried something might have gone wrong at home. Now, it hadn’t even been three hours since he left Provincial City.
Even with highways the entire way, it was impossible to get from Provincial City to Sancha River in three hours, unless he was speeding—and if compared to the mystery of being in the hospital in Provincial City just over two hours ago and now here in Sancha River, speeding seemed trivial. But the problem was, there was no highway between Provincial City and Wan City at all!
It wouldn’t be strange at all for Old Pi to have someone block him right there. Thinking back, Yan Fei realized that it wasn’t anything peculiar. If he counted those who had offended him, a summary would reveal that most who did something wrong to him during the day would face troubles at night.
It wasn’t hard to block him, and speaking of which, Yan Fei didn’t regret the things he had done; those people got what they deserved. The real issue was how much Director Pi and the others knew about his affairs.
"Yan Xiaofei, did you hear what I said?" Seeing Yan Fei’s distracted look, Xu Xiaoyan couldn’t help feeling unamused. "You called me over early in the morning, and now when I talk to you about choosing university courses, you’re zoning out again. Are you... feeling unwell?"
"No, no problem," Yan Fei said, not moving an inch while letting the girl touch his forehead. "See, it’s nothing serious, right? Choosing university courses is a minor issue; I’ll listen to you."
"Really?" The girl asked, not sure if she was anxious or thrilled.
"Of course it’s true, I’ll apply for whatever you suggest." Yan Fei replied. "Hungry? I’ll go make breakfast."
Watching him go to prepare breakfast, the girl also started daydreaming, just like he did before.
Yan Fei, while cooking breakfast, considered whether to make a phone call or not. He was always on edge, even preparing himself for the worst-case scenario—if his secret was indeed discovered, he would have to send his family to dinosaur world for safety.
The girl in the living room was also lost in thought, not interrupting his wild imaginations. It wasn’t until breakfast was ready and they were about to eat that Xu Xiaoyan softly said, "If you apply for China Agricultural University, we won’t be together this year. We’ll have to wait until I pass the postgraduate entrance exam..."
Yan Fei raised his head in surprise, "Aren’t I supposed to apply for Provincial Agricultural University? How did it become China Agricultural University? That would mean going to the Capital."
"I was just discussing it with you," the girl said, feeling inexplicably annoyed. "Didn’t you say you performed well in your exams? Wouldn’t it be a waste to apply for Provincial Agricultural University? Of course it’s better to attend a prestigious one, and you agreed, right?"
"I..." Yan Fei felt annoyed as he recalled saying casually that he would listen to his wife. "Can I change my mind? I’m just going for Provincial Agricultural University. Our house is there, and now I’ve even bought that old test field. Why go somewhere else for university? We had agreed from the start, right? It was supposed to be Provincial Agricultural University."
Xu Xiaoyan felt a little conflicted, fiddling with her chopsticks in her bowl, silent.
She had just suggested Yan Fei apply for China Agricultural University because she felt it was a shame to go to an average college with his good exam results. Yet, she also wanted to study together with Yan Fei as soon as possible, even if not at the same university, at least they could see each other every day.
So her suggestion was also half-hearted, speaking against her true feelings. Call her selfish or narrow-minded, but that’s how a girl in love feels; on one hand, wanting her beloved to have a brighter future, on the other hand, wanting to stay close to him.
She didn’t expect Yan Fei to be absent-minded at the time and simply agree, which made her heart flutter, and the more she thought about it, the more she brooded...
Now, hearing Yan Fei ’renege’, she felt a little secret joy but also some regret—achieving high scores in the college entrance exams and not applying to a prestigious university is something anyone would feel conflicted and regretful about.
"What are you thinking about? Hurry up and eat," Yan Fei tapped on the bowl as a reminder to the girl. "I feel like I did well on the tests, but what if I didn’t? Who can be sure if my scores are good enough? I even wanted to apply for Shuimu or Yanjing, but it’s not like I could get in! Stop thinking about it, let’s eat."
"Oh!" The girl agreed, her mood inexplicably lifted, and she started eating quickly.
After breakfast, Yan Fei didn’t go out, instead staying in the room under the pretense of translating a novel without leaving the house, and even called his parents to make some small talk about whether they were at work and if his brother was in kindergarten.
The girl pointed out a few mistakes in the novel Yan Fei was translating, to which he confidently claimed were how foreigners normally spoke, citing movies as his source of learning, leaving the girl unable to find a counterargument.
Then Yan Fei gloated, "Looks like my English skills have surpassed yours!"
The girl gave him a side-eye, "What’s there to be proud of? If you write like that in an exam, you won’t get any marks. Don’t believe me? Try it in college. Enlightened teachers might tolerate it, but strict ones definitely won’t give you points."
Yan Fei’s pride instantly deflated, "I think about it, and I might have really written like that in exams, this is bad, I thought for sure my English test scores would be good!"
