Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

On the third day, Mo Zhu woke up early and prepared to look for Elder Xu. After all, her grandmother still wanted her to study hard.

She did not leave with Fang Ran, nor did she tell Father Fang and Qin Ya. She left the Fang family’s house and took a taxi to Jingyang High School. Then, she went all the way to the principal’s office. Elder Xu had already known that she was coming and was already waiting in the office.

There was only Mo Zhu and Elder Xu in the office.

“You’re finally willing to come to Jingyang High School. I’ve waited for you for a long time.”

“Grandma hopes that I will go to school and study well.”

“How is your grandmother? Is she well?”

Elder Xu knew about Mo Zhu’s grandmother. He had visited the old woman before and knew that Mo Zhu had refused to come to Cloud City because she was worried about her grandmother. However, he did not expect Mo Zhu to compromise this time, and it made him worry about the old woman’s health.

“Cloud City is more convenient than Qingyuan Village.”

All these years, grandma’s health had been completely dependent on Yun Jing. Now, Yun Jing’s medicine was no longer effective, and she was hanging on by a special medicine. Cloud City was indeed more convenient to treat grandma’s health as compared to Qingyuan Village.

Speaking of how Mo Zhu and Elder Xu met each other, they had to start from when Mo Zhu was young.

From a young age, Mo Zhu had realized that her IQ was different from others. At the age of seven, she had self-studied the high school curriculum, so she did not like to go to school. As a result, she became a useless person in the eyes of others.

However, when she was bored, she would join some competitions. A few years ago, in order to recruit people, Elder Xu had put a few questions on the Internet. Mo Zhu solved them when she saw them. From then on, Elder Xu discovered Mo Zhu, a genius. He had prepared to go to Qingyuan Village to look for Mo Zhu several times but was rejected by her.

She did not want to leave her grandmother. Elder Xu did not give up and sent her a recommendation letter, saying that she could come anytime. They had been contacting each other online all these years.

In order to take in this student, Elder Xu often went to Qingyuan Village and got to know Mo Zhu’s grandma.

All these years, Elder Xu’s heart always ached when he saw Mo Zhu rejecting everything for her grandmother’s health.

He wondered if Mo Zhu’s trip to Cloud City from Qingyuan Village was a good or bad thing.

The two of them chatted for a while before Elder Xu brought Mo Zhu to the teacher’s office. He then walked straight to the seat of the class’ teacher-in-charge, Ma Rong.

When everyone saw the principal there personally, they stood up in fear.

Elder Xu directly told Ma Rong his intention, he wanted her to take over this student.

However, when Ma Rong heard that Mo Zhu was a transfer student and had poor grades in the previous school, she rejected him. She couldn’t ruin the glory of Class One because of a mouse dropping.

It seemed that the principal was not as impartial as outsiders made him out to be. He had actually allowed his own relative into the school through the back door. At this moment, Ma Rong had already believed that there was some relationship between Mo Zhu and the principal. She left with the excuse of attending class and even glared at Mo Zhu when she left.

At this moment, a teacher stood up and expressed his willingness to take over this student. The person who stood up was form teacher of Class Eight, Li Xiao. Li Xiao was an upright person. Although the results of the students in the class were not good, he had never seen them in a different light.

Elder Xu looked at Mo Zhu. In fact, he had originally wanted Mo Zhu to enter Class One. After all, Class One was filled with the top students. However, he understood the character of Class One’s form teacher. It might not be a bad thing if she didn’t go there.

After settling the procedures, Elder Xu asked Li Xiao to bring Mo Zhu to report to class.

Li Xiao looked at the thin girl behind him and said, “The classmates in class are easy to get along with. As long as you want to study hard, I will definitely help you.”

Mo Zhu nodded.

Li Xiao begin to like this obedient girl even more. If her grades weren’t good, she could still improve slowly. He didn’t like Yang Rong’s way of doing things, and she even divided the students into different classes.

When Mo Zhu arrived in class, it was time for the physical education class. She placed the book on the seat Li Xiao had arranged for her and left.

She had applied for leave from Elder Xu, and she wasn’t attending the classes in the afternoon.

Mo Zhu hailed a taxi at the school gate and headed in another direction.

Cloud City’s First Hospital

When Mo Zhu arrived, it was as if her body was injected with some warmth. She was no longer as unapproachable as she usually was.

When Mo Zhu arrived, her grandmother, Zhang Fen, had already taken her medicine and fallen asleep. Mo Zhu did not disturb her and accompanied her quietly for a while before heading to the payment counter.

In order to threaten her, Qin Ya only paid a month’s worth of fees for her grandma. If Mo Zhu was disobedient, she would cut off Zhang Fen’s special medicine.

This time, Mo Zhu paid directly for a year’s worth of special medicine.

After Mo Zhu left the First Hospital, she went straight back to the Fang family home. Since she was already in school, she planned to stay in school and bring her things away.

It was already afternoon by the time she returned. She had very little luggage. She would not take the things that Qin Ya had stuffed into her hands.. She had only brought the things that she had brought from Qingyuan Village with her.
