Who told him to make the cards!

play for real?

"Brother Chen, let's go home," Zhou Keke said after hanging up the phone.

It was getting late anyway.

She was very curious as to why Qinggong Academy would send a letter to Chen Zhi.

Could it be that Brother Chen has already submitted his application to Qinggong Academy and passed the assessment?

After that, wouldn't she and Chen Zhige be classmates who spent every day together?

Suppressing her excitement, Zhou Keke pulled Chen Zhi onto the rail bus that passed through the old town.

In fact, Chen Zhi wanted to take a taxi.

What's it like to try out the shuttle?

But considering that taking a taxi would be expensive, and that Old Zhou's daughter would most likely insist on paying, he decided against it.

I'll try it again next time I have the chance.

……

"Mom, we're back."

As soon as I got home.

Zhou Keke couldn't wait to pick up the letter that was on the dining table.

The Qingniao Express packaging features a circular palace sketch on the plastic seal.

"It really is someone from our college!"

Zhou Keke was extremely excited, as if she herself had passed the academy's assessment.

Lin Yu, who had just come out of the bedroom, knocked on the door and warned, "Coco, you're getting more and more unruly."

Why did you snatch Xiao Chen's letter right away?

"fine."

In contrast, Chen Zhi was more concerned about the words "our academy" that the girl mentioned.

He casually asked Lin Yu, "Is Coco also a student at Qinggong Academy?"

“Yeah, right!” Zhou Keke answered quickly, raising her chin and giving a smug look. “You didn’t expect that, did you, Brother Chen Zhi? I’m pretty awesome too!”

"I really didn't expect that," Chen Zhi said with a smile. "Old Zhou will be so happy he won't be able to sleep."

Lin Yu glared at Zhou Keke and said, "Can't you be a little more modest?"

Even so, Chen Zhi could still see a hint of undisguised pride in Lin Yu's eyes.

As the empire's premier academy, it's only a matter of time before one is formally admitted to Qinggong Academy.

A mother is naturally happy that her daughter is so accomplished.

Zhou Keke said with a grin, "I'm usually very modest. I just wanted to show off in front of my brother."

As she spoke, she handed the letter to Chen Zhi: "Brother Chen Zhi, quickly open it and take a look."

Seeing her expectant look, Chen Zhi smiled and said, "Help me take it apart."

Zhou Keke's eyes lit up immediately. She smiled at Chen Zhi with her eyes narrowed like a cat, revealing two small dimples. Then she turned to Lin Yu and said, "Mom, look, I didn't rush to open this."

Lin Yu rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache coming on.

On the one hand, she was happy to see her daughter and Chen Zhi getting along well.

After all, he was Lao Zhou's comrade-in-arms; it would be difficult for her if her daughter didn't like him.

On the other hand, she felt that Chen Zhi had too good a temper.

Like Lao Zhou, if things continue like this, Zhou Keke will be spoiled sooner or later.

But she couldn't say anything.

Zhou Keke has already opened the letter.

With a sense of ceremony, she picked up the notice with both hands, puffed out her chest, and read it aloud:

"Chen Zhi, classmate."

"First of all, thank you for your letter."

"Your card submission has been received by the Academy. After evaluation, the card has met the initial review standards in all aspects. You are hereby notified to come to our Academy for a review within three days."

"Please bring your card-making pen and this notice with you. After admission, a mentor will guide you to the verification location."

"Good luck."

Zhou Ke finished reading the admission notice.

Immediately following was a shout of "Yay!"

Chen Zhi is amazing!

She had prepared a whole bunch of arguments beforehand, hoping to "incite" Chen Zhi to take the entrance exam for Qinggong Academy.

It turns out that the other person has already passed the exam.

My father didn't mention such a crucial matter in the letter.

She once thought that Chen Zhi was just a card maker by hobby, and that his main job was as a miner like his father.

Lin Yu also looked at Chen Zhi in surprise.

Old Zhou's young friend actually got into Qinggong Academy?

It's important to know that Chen Zhi and Zhou Keke are different.

Zhou Keke grew up in Tianhengjing, where she was exposed to card game knowledge from a young age. She even attended tutoring classes and hired famous teachers as her private tutors.

Even so, Zhou Keke worked very hard and put in a lot of effort to get the admission letter from Qinggong Academy.

Furthermore, it's not a core professional field closely related to card manufacturing.

But what about Chen Zhi?

Old Zhou said he grew up in the mining area and had never left it; all his knowledge was self-taught through trial and error.

His circumstances were far more difficult than Zhou Keke's, yet he managed to gain entry to Qinggong Academy with just a card.

How talented must this child be?

"It's just the preliminary review," Chen Zhi said with a smile to the excited girl. "Let's not get too excited yet."

"No, no, I just want to be happy."

"cocoa!"

Lin Yu's face hardened: "Look at the time!"

It still takes the mother's own power to suppress it.

When Lin Yu got serious and activated her "motherly aura," the lively girl immediately wilted.

"You've been out all day, go take a shower."

"Oh……"

Zhou Keke pouted and reluctantly took her clothes into the bathroom.

Chen Zhi laughed as he watched.

Lin Yu turned her head again and chatted with Chen Zhi with a smile.

"Old Zhou is really something, he didn't even tell me you were so talented. If I had known, I would have gotten you another card-making table."

Chen Zhi hurriedly said, "No need, no need, that's too much trouble."

The Zhou family's living area was not large to begin with; if they added a work desk, it would become incredibly cramped.

Ultimately, he was just a guest staying there and shouldn't take up too much of the mother and daughter's living space.

"Why are you being so polite with me?" Lin Yu said reproachfully.

"Really, no need, sister-in-law," Chen Zhi said with a smile. "I used to just put up a board whenever I needed to replace my cards in the mining area. I'm used to it. If you bring a neat table, I'll feel uncomfortable."

"Really?"

"real."

"Alright then, just let me know if you need anything," Lin Yu said. "Just treat this place like your own home."

"Uh-huh."

"By the way, I've tidied up the room, and I've changed the sheets and duvet covers," Lin Yu said. "The toothbrush and towel are in the bathroom; they've been disinfected and have labels on them, so you can use them directly."

There were only two bedrooms and no outbuildings, so Lin Yu turned Zhou Keke's room into a guest room so her daughter could sleep with her.

"No, sister-in-law, if Lao Zhou finds out, he'll beat me up."

Chen Zhi, of course, refused.

How could a grown man like him sleep in a girl's bedroom?

Moreover, you can't see the moon from Coco's room.
