Ming Qianye’s tone seemed a little gloomy. She hesitated for a moment before she suddenly sighed.

“I’ll try my best to protect DK for you. You’re still growing up now. When you really have the ability to manage it, it will be all yours.”

Her words were filled with certainty. Lou Che didn’t have the slightest doubt as he listened.

“I don’t want… I just want to be a free person and live without pressure,”

Lou Che replied coldly.

Upon hearing this, Ming Qianye sneered and narrowed her starry eyes at him. “That’s not up to you. When you were born as a human, you were already destined to be unable to be completely free and without any pressure. There are many people who have a harder time than us every day. You’re a young man with healthy limbs and good looks. Why shouldn’t you work hard?”

Ming Qianye couldn’t help but reprimand him. Her tone was unusually solemn.

“Isn’t that a waste of time? I won’t allow you to be so dispirited. Do what you have to do. Don’t be like those problematic teenagers being rebellious and sad. It’s not a big deal. Didn’t I go through the same thing? I don’t need to become a good person, but I need you to at least not be a dispirited scumbag of society. You have to think of a way to become outstanding, so you have to get into a university for me, a good university.”

“You indulge yourself, but it is someone else who benefits. The consequences of your actions will only be borne by you. No one can bear them for you. Therefore, the one you hurt in the end will only be yourself. I can only tell you that you shouldn’t spend a lifetime in regret because of your rash decisions now. There’s no turning back in life. We have to make every minute and second worth it. That’s what we should do. There will always be many difficulties and obstacles on the path of progress. We can’t be too weak. The only one who can get past these struggles is ourselves…”

Ming Qianye didn’t care what Lou Che was thinking. Her attitude was very firm.

Kids these days were very fragile. Every year, many students from G University would rashly rush to the top of the multi-purpose building. Perhaps it was because of their life or their relationships, but their ability to withstand pressure was too weak. Ming Qianye didn’t want to see Lou Che like this, so she had to let him get used to it now.

He had to learn some hard lessons to become stronger.

“What if I can’t get in?”

Lou Che suddenly asked.

“If you can’t get in, then go for more tuition. You’ll get in eventually. A good educational qualification will be very beneficial for you when you come out to work in the future. Lou Qianwei and Lou Hui are nothing. I’ve seen their results. They’re no different from idiots in school. So what if it’s an international school? They spend all their money on it and practically worship it. Don’t believe what they say when they’re bragging about themselves.”

Ming Qianye had inquired about Lou Hui’s situation for the past two days. She thought that Lou Hui was some amazing genius. Turns out, he had only gotten in through the back door. Moreover, his results alone weren’t even good enough to get him accepted. He only got in because of his annual high sponsorship fees.

She thought that he was really some amazing genius. She had not investigated Lou Qianwei’s situation yet. Anyway, she had been studying in school previously, and her standard was only so-so. She was very enthusiastic about the selection of the school belle, and her mind was not on her studies…

“G University’s Affiliated High School is much better than that international school.”

“Am I not also going through the back door? And can you be sure that others are willing to accept a poor student like me? I don’t have the ability.”

Lou Che still didn’t quite believe Ming Qianye’s words. He felt that she had overestimated his abilities.

Upon hearing this, Ming Qianye immediately smiled. “You can enter not because of your ability, but because of my ability. If you enter G University, I don’t need to be like Lou Zhiwen and Yang Li, begging others on my knees with money. I guarantee that you can be like a normal child there. You can live and study, and the teachers will take the initiative to take care of you. Don’t worry about this. Lou Hui has them paving the way. You won’t miss out on what you need.”

Ming Qianye’s tone was very calm, and Lou Che had no way to refute her. He could only lower his head and eat silently.

“I can provide you with the conditions, but I can’t help you if you work hard. I hope you can manage yourself well and not let everything I’ve done go to waste.”

Lou Che’s face turned cold as he listened. However, he remained silent.

This sister seemed to be quite talkative. She was different from the cold and taciturn impression of her that he had.

…

“Can you cook?”

After a while, Ming Qianye suddenly asked again.

Lou Che paused for a second before replying, “No.”

Ming Qianye frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, “There’s a cafeteria in the club downstairs. The meal card is in the drawer of the coffee table. You can eat there yourself if I’m not around, but it’ll be a big disadvantage if a boy doesn’t know how to cook. You should learn from now on. You still have to learn basic culinary skills.”

It was her own decision again. She didn’t care whether Lou Che was willing or not.

Lou Che suddenly felt that this sister’s decisions were a little too arbitrary!

He didn’t want to learn how to cook…

“How are you going to get me into G University’s Affiliated High School?”

Lou Che struggled for a long time before he finally asked a normal question.

Ming Qianye ate a piece of chicken and replied honestly, “G University has been cooperating with them for a long time. In addition to prioritizing themselves, they also have a favor to ask of me. I’ll give them a speech later and that’ll be enough. However, the procedure still has to be followed. You can’t embarrass me too much when you go for the preliminary exam, so you still have to make some preparations.”

Lou Che was stunned for a long time as he listened. There was a complicated look in his eyes.

“Don’t worry. Just do as I tell you. I’ll take care of you for the next year or so. When you get into university, I won’t be able to do anything about it. No matter what, you can’t give up on yourself. Otherwise, it’ll really be over. I’m a little busy these two days. I’ll bring you to see that school in two days and familiarize you with it in advance. I’ll arrange for the exam later and then arrange for you to get in directly.”

Seeing how confident she was, Lou Che actually felt that her words were somewhat credible.

After lunch, Ming Qianye let Lou Che stay at home to rest and revise for his exams, while she went back to G University for class.

…

After that, Lou Che finally witnessed Ming Qianye’s ability to handle things.

When he completed the transfer procedures and officially entered G University’s Affiliated High School, it was only the third morning.

He heard that his original school had encountered some trouble when he was transferring schools, but he didn’t expect Ming Qianye to solve it so easily.

That morning, Ming Qianye took him to the principal’s office of G University’s Affiliated High School, along with the dean of G University’s Affiliated High School and a refined middle-aged man wearing black-framed glasses. Apparently he was his next form teacher.

The dean kindly handed him a set of test questions for him to complete. Before his results were even out, he said to him, “Student Lou Che, don’t worry. Study hard here. The dormitory and classroom arrangements have been settled.”
