Everyone in the Zhao"s household was anxious as they await Elizabeth"s transformation.
"What"s taking her so long?" Zhao Cheng walked back and forth eager to see the girl.
"Father come down," Zhao Weiwei calmly taking a sip of her tea but was fired up on the inside to see the girl as well.
"Everyone…"
Both Elizabeth"s personal maids announced whilst they stood beside the girl.
Zhao Cheng was all emotional seeing the girl wearing the university uniform which represent their family crest. He could not hold his tears as he saw the image of his beautiful wife standing in front of him.
Zhao Yunxi was mesmerized to see the girl looking like their late mother, "Mother?"
"Darling, I"m so happy…" Zhao Cheng hastily embraced the girl.
"Lizzy, do you have everything?" Zhao Weiwei asked.
"Mom, I ain"t 5 you know…" Elizabeth frowned.
"Come now, you"ll be late." Robert Knightley kissed his daughter on the forehead proud how she looked like.
Zhao Xian Imperial University
Everyone was in the Chairman"s office discussing about Elizabeth entering the school. Only the Director knew of Elizabeth"s ident.i.ty since the previous disciplinary board and principle were all changed.
"Lizzy, have a good time." Zhao Weiwei pinched the girl"s cheeks with teary eyes.
"Will see you tonight." Robert Knightley added.
"Darling, have fun and be careful." Zhao Cheng embraced the girl for the last time.
"Everyone came down. I"m just going to school again."
Elizabeth left the chairman"s office and headed to her cla.s.s. Since her status as a celebrity was informed to the school, they were informed ahead of time that there would be possibilities she"ll miss some cla.s.s. At the same time, she was also enrolled secretly to take her master"s degree in law.
Whilst Elizabeth was heading to her cla.s.s as few students and faculty notice her and realized who she was. Despite she was wearing the university uniform her beauty could not be hidden.
"Isn"t that Li Zi?"
"Why is she wearing the university"s uniform?"
Some students and faculty staff started taking pictures as they posted it online. Soon it went viral within a few minutes.
[Li Zi to attend Zhao Xian Imperial University was caught wearing the university"s uniform.]
Like everyone else, they were all curious about what course Li Zi took and what"s her schedule. Her family has informed the school of the possibility that the media will attack the school for information and Director Kuo has warned everyone. Since the University is an establishment of the Zhao and Xian family, media did not dare trespa.s.sed nor hara.s.s any of the students.
Along the way to her cla.s.s, it surprises Elizabeth when someone called her name.
"Sis Li Zi."
She turned around and smiled seeing the young boy running towards her. "Little Jaio…"
"Sis Li Zi, can you not call me Little Jaio. Just call me Rong please…" Jaio Rong pleaded.
Elizabeth laughed seeing how cute the young boy was, "Fine, fine…"
"Sis Li Zi, I didn"t expect you to attend university. From what I heard you"ve already graduated from England."
"That right."
"Then Sis Li Zi, why are you studying again?" Jaio Rong wonders as they walked together to cla.s.s.
"I actually enjoy art and music so I"m planning to improve my skill."
Jaio Rong did not question her further since Liying has explained to him how the girl is fasinated when it comes to learning and expanding her wisdom in various things.
"Anyways, Sis Li Zi… I"ll see you around, I need to head to cla.s.s too." Jaio Rong ran as he waved goodbye to the girl.
"See you around."
Elizabeth attended her cla.s.s like normal student. Despite her status as a celebrity the teacher and students treated her like a normal student. Since this is Zhao Xian Imperial University, your status does not matter here.
It was almost 4 o"clock and her last cla.s.s ended, it has been a while since she attended cla.s.s and she felt so drained.
Outside the University, loads of reports were waiting for her. But since Long and Chou came to pick her up the reports weren"t able to see her leave at all.
That evening, everyone celebrated her entry to the university. For Zhao Cheng, it was something worth celebrating and announcing. If only he could annouce his granddaughter has entered their University.
"Lili how was your first day?" Zhao Yunxi asked.
"It"s was quite draining Uncle, I was mentally not prepared for it at all." Elizabeth expressed such hopelessness and sighed, "I"ve been so focused on acting and spending time with Jackie during the summer I was not able to prepare myself at all."
Both mother and father giggled hearing their daughter was unable to cope with something. It was indeed something to celebrate, for once she was unable to handle something like school.
"Did your professor treat you well?" Zhao Yunxi inquired.
"Of course Uncle, no matter who I am they treated me like a normal student."
"that"s good then, so it was only Vice President Huo who was misleading the university." Zhao Cheng sighed in relief.
"I think so grandpa, rest a.s.sured everything is fine."
Whilst drinking her wine, Zhao Weiwei paused as she recalled something important, "Baby, you"ll be away for two days right?"
"Yup, I have to shoot for the variety show," Elizabeth answered whilst finishing her desserts.
"Darling eat this." Zhao Cheng handed her some fruits.
"Where will you be going this time?" Zhao Weiwei asked.
"Up north but I don"t know the exact detail yet."
Elizabeth thanked her grandfather for slicing the fruits for her.
"I"ll have arranged for someone to watch you." Robert Knightley bluntly spoke.
"Daddy no need…" Elizabeth choked on her food as she stared at her father.
"Lili we can"t let what happened before happen again." Zhao Yunxi added.
"It won"t happened, I"m with Director Mo, plus..." Elizabeth paused and glared at the old man and added, "I know Grandpa already have someone following me."
Zhao Cheng cleared his throat surprised the girl found out. He averted his gaze from her and said, "I don"t know what you"re talking about."
Only the ladies laughed in how the old man reacted. Since the father and uncle also planned to do so yet the old man beat them to it.
After dinner, Elizabeth was busy finishing her school works for the next two days since she"ll be away. She has asked all the professors to send her the details of the lesson she"ll miss. Also, she has order everyone not to do what the old man did without her knowledge. The fact they were too frightened of what the girl would do. They eventually gave in and agreed with her decision.
