Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Her son was too clingy to her.
It was normal for children to be clingy, but she was afraid he might not be able to change in the future.
Qiankun Academy was the number one academy in Cloud Plains Continent.
There, they had the best teachers and students. If Xiaonan were to get administrated, not only could he learn many things, but he could also meet many equally outstanding children.
She believed it would be more beneficial for her son’s growth there.
“What about you, mother? If I got accepted as a student at Qiankun Academy, I wouldn’t be able to see you often.”
Xiaonan heard that Qiankun Academy was a closed inst.i.tution, and except for the teachers and students of the academy, no one else could enter.
He didn’t want to be separated from his mother!
If they were to be separated, then he wouldn’t go!
At this moment, he didn’t think about the possibility of not being able to get in.
Gu Qingluan nodded seriously. “Good question. So you have to learn to be independent. I won’t be able to be with you all the time in the future.”
“I want to be with you! I don’t need you to take care of me! I can take care of you!”
Xiaonan had never been separated from her for too long. But once he entered Qiankun Academy, it meant a long separation.
He let go of Xiaobai and threw himself into Gu Qingluan’s arms. “Mother, 1 can cook now. I can cook for you. I can also learn embroidery from Sister Bo He and make clothes for you. Please don’t abandon your child!”
Xiaobai easily jumped onto the other side of the soft couch. When he heard the words “cook”, his white fur stood up in shock.
“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”
Little master, you’d better not cook!
With your culinary skills, if your mother tastes it, she’ll definitely pack you up and send you to the academy to learn!
Gu Qingluan took him out of her arms with a helpless look. “I just want you to go there and learn, not to abandon you.”
“I don’t care! If you abandon me and send me to the academy, I…1 won’t partic.i.p.ate in the selection compet.i.tion the day after tomorrow.” Xiaonan turned his puffed-up little face away.
Huh, he’s threatening her!
Having gone through more hardship, where would she be threatened by him?
She calmly said, “Alright, if you don’t partic.i.p.ate, I’ll have Bo He send you back to the Island of No Return, and I’ll go to Qiankun Academy myself.”
“Mother, why are you like this!” Xiaonan became anxious when he heard that, quickly turned his head, and looked at her with a pouting face.
There was only one spot, either his mother goes or he goes, in any case, one of them would be left behind!
Facing this dilemma, Xiaonan felt wronged.
If he had known this, he wouldn’t have gone to Gu’s house with her.
Seeing her son’s red eyes, Gu Qingluan couldn’t help but smile.
In the face of his accusation, she pinched his little nose and said, “Don’t worry, concentrate on partic.i.p.ating in the selection compet.i.tion. As long as you can be among the top three, we won’t be separated.”
“Why? Are you going to ask the Gu family for another spot if I am accepted?”
Gu Qingluan gave a vague answer, saying that when the time comes, he will know.
This made Xiaonan curious.
But no matter how he asked, she just wouldn’t answer.
Xiaonan felt like there was a cat scratching at his heart, and he made an anxious monkey-like gesture, which amused Gu Qingluan.
The next day, the lists from various major families were all sent to the organizers.
The organizers then delivered them to the palace and presented them to Feng Tianlan.
Feng Tianlan sat behind the desk, engrossed in reading a book.
It seemed that the list was not as attractive as the book in his hand.
Jing Feng glanced at the cover of the book.
It was a blue cover without a t.i.tle.
He was unaware of the book that had captured his master’s interest lately, as he had been completely engrossed in it.
It’s been a long time since he saw his master so engrossed in reading.
He waited quietly on the side, with nothing to do, so he picked up the list and looked at it.
When he flipped to one of the lists, he suddenly exclaimed..
