Chapter 106: Life is safe, but not complete (2 chapters in 1)

No matter how much he complained in his heart, Zhuang Xiao had to cooperate with President Tu and said against his conscience: "I am speaking the truth."

Tu Yan raised his eyebrows and asked, "So, you really think he's 'good'?"

Tu Yan deliberately reread the last two words with a smile on his face. It was obvious that he didn't want an explanation, but wanted to hear good words.

Zhuang Xiao was already very familiar with the art of first criticizing and then praising. He nodded and counted on his fingers, "Shao Quan is handsome, kind, athletic, and has a good figure..."

"But I like you the most." Zhuang Xiao looked at Tu Yan's eyebrows rising higher and higher, and laughed, "In my eyes, you are good in every way."

"Being jealous is so cute!"

Tu Yan looked at Zhuang Xiaoxiao's rosy face and could tell that this woman was deliberately teasing him. He frowned out of habit but couldn't hold it back. In the end, he could only sigh.

His slender fingers touched her soft cheek, "Let me remind you, you are a married woman now, you should be careful about your behavior. Do you know that she has a good figure?"

"I've seen him play basketball." Zhuang Xiao explained and then looked at Tu Yan, "Unlike my boyfriend, who can only be seen in black suits."

Tu Yan could almost feel Zhuang Xiao's gaze moving away from him, and he subconsciously closed his thighs slightly.

Zhuang Xiaoan had been apart for a long time, and after they got together, she was shy again. He almost forgot that she dared to put her hand on him the first time they met...

Zhuang Xiao is the one who is weaker than you and stronger than her. She tried to hold back her laughter but was given a sidelong glance by Tu Yan.

Zhuang Xiao stopped when he saw that he was ahead. He snorted and muttered, "Besides, I don't even have a family. When will I be able to share the same household registration with Mr. Tu to be considered a family..."

Zhuang Xiao remembered that she still had the heavy responsibility of becoming Tu Yan's fiancée.

In fact, she was not very sure, but she had thought it through. Now that she had a supporting role, her life was safe...

Well, it’s not worry-free actually.

Zhuang Xiao remembered the warning from No. 23 that marginal supporting characters and outsiders have no sense of existence. Once the existence value is exhausted, she will be able to sense others, but others will easily ignore her existence.

According to No. 23, "Don't think you can rest easy. If you fail to complete the mission and leave the hero, a person without a sense of existence will only live a life worse than death. Drivers will ignore you when you cross the road, and you may not know how many days you can live."

After being misled by No. 23 yesterday, Zhuang Xiao was depressed for a while. Fortunately, she was born tenacious and ate a bowl of snail noodles, and she was fully revived.

Things will work out when the time comes!

Besides... maybe, before she completes her mission, she will have accumulated enough existence value to live to eighty years old!

Thinking of this, Zhuang Xiao naturally looked at Tu Yan, his eyes following his sharp and delicate profile like marble, and finally landing on his slightly thin lips.

Today's five existence points have not been refreshed yet.

Tu Yan was still thinking about what Zhuang Xiao had just said about the household registration book. He felt a little complicated and didn't know whether he wanted to do it or not.

Tu Yan looked at Zhuang Xiao for a long while and said, "Are you proposing to me..."?

Before Tu Yan could understand Zhuang Xiao's intention, the latter's face came closer.

Tu Yan's breathing stagnated and the last syllable was swallowed.

Soft lips pressed against him, and Zhuang Xiaoqing's shallow breath, with the lemon freshness of toothpaste, gently sprinkled on the tip of his nose.

"Come on!"

Following a loud sound, Zhuang Xiao distanced himself again, and shook his head happily when he heard the sound of five points of existence value being credited.

Tu Yan's breathing returned to normal, and he felt a little amused and helpless. Is that it?

Tu Yan leaned closer, ready to teach her a lesson, but before his lips touched, Zhuang Xiao's hand stopped him, "Wait!"

Zhuang Xiao realized what Tu Yan had just said, blinked nervously, and asked, "If... I mean, if, if I proposed to you, would you agree?"

Zhuang Xiao asked this probing question, staring at Tu Yan's face. The silence in the air lasted for two minutes, and then two voices rang out at the same time, "You're dreaming!"

For some reason, when Zhuang Xiao saw Tu Yan open his mouth, he guessed his answer, and after answering it quickly, he made himself laugh.

Tu Yan looked at Zhuang Xiao, who was laughing so hard that he fell on the backrest. His face turned black and he looked helpless.

What's going on? I feel like she has me in her arms.

Fortunately, the driver alerted the place and rescued the two people.

This is a private hospital. As soon as Tu Yan and Zhuang Xiao entered the hospital, two medical staff followed them and took Zhuang Xiao through a wide variety of examinations. Compared with the last physical examination, it took more time and included several more heart examinations and an allergy test.

When Zhuang Xiao came out of the examination room, he saw Tu Yan talking to a middle-aged man in a white coat and giving him instructions for a long time.

Before leaving, the middle-aged man looked at Zhuang Xiao curiously and smiled at her kindly.

After coming out of the medical examination institution, Zhuang Xiao ate the soft durian pastry bought by the driver while looking at the scenery outside the window.

As she looked at it, she realized something was wrong. "Where are we going?" This was not the way to take her home.

"I'll take you somewhere." Tu Yan handed her a tissue and tapped the left corner of his mouth.

"Oh!" Zhuang Xiao was interrupted and focused on wiping his mouth, "Anything else?"

"Nothing."

After the rush hour, the road was very smooth and we stopped at the gate of W University fifteen minutes later.

"What are you doing at school?" Apart from the company and the rental house, this is the second place Zhuang Xiao is familiar with.

Tu Yan led the confused Zhuang Xiao into the school gate. Someone was already waiting at the door. He was wearing a shirt, trousers, and glasses, and looked exactly like the dean of studies.

Zhuang Xiao immediately pulled his hand out of Tu Yan's palm.

Sure enough, as soon as this person opened his mouth, "Hello, Mr. Tu, I am Jiang Ling, the vice-dean of the School of Design and Art. Welcome to our school to give us guidance." The deans of the art departments of comprehensive universities are usually celebrities hired from outside, the so-called honorary deans, who are there to fill the void, while the vice-deans are the ones with real management power.

But Vice President Jiang seemed to be worried that he was not qualified to receive this God of Wealth, so he explained with a smile: "Vice President Hong happened to have a meeting this morning, which should be over by now, so I came right over. Please forgive me..."

Tu Yan didn't care much, "It doesn't matter, I'm just taking a look."

"Yes, yes, yes..." Vice President Jiang nodded repeatedly, "How about this, I'll take you around?"

Tu Yan nodded and said, "Let's go to the Oil Painting Department."

Tu Yan distractedly looked at Zhuang Xiao, "I remember you were an oil painter?"

"I'll paint some watercolors too." Zhuang Xiao nodded. "Compared to oil painting, watercolor tools are simpler and not that expensive..."

Tu Yan tilted his head and looked at her, his expression serious, "You don't have to worry about this in the future."

Vice President Jiang saw who made the final decision and said with a smile, "All art is interconnected. Compared with watercolor, oil painting has a wider range of applications and is relatively mature. Of course, with Miss Zhuang's talent, she will achieve success no matter which one she chooses."

With Tu Yan's financial resources, it would be easy for him to promote a famous painter.

What's more, after learning that Zhuang Xiao had attended evening self-study classes with students from the Oil Painting Department for a period of time and then went to an internship with them, he specifically asked for Zhuang Xiao's paintings to see. He saw how much spiritual energy Zhuang Xiao possessed that no one studying art could even ask for.

Thinking of this, Vice President Jiang couldn't help but sigh. Artistic cells are really hard to capture. No matter how hard you work, you can't catch up with talent.

Tu Yan didn't seem to like Vice President Jiang's obviously biased words, and said calmly: "It doesn't matter whether it is practical or not, it depends on whether you like it or not."

"Yes." Vice Dean Jiang explained with a smile, "Professor Zou from the Oil Painting Department admires Miss Zhuang's talent and genius very much. He knew you wanted to study at our school, so he came to me early and asked me to fight for him."

"Teacher Zou?" Zhuang Xiao's eyes lit up. Teacher Zou was a teacher in the oil painting department. After knowing that Zhuang Xiao could only come to paint during evening self-study classes, he came to the evening self-study classes every day. It can be said that he was the teacher who brought her into the industry.

Vice President Jiang nodded, "She praised you highly."

Zhuang Xiao was very happy, but that was not the point. "Can I enroll in the school?"

Vice Dean Jiang glanced at Tu Yan subconsciously, then nodded to Zhuang Xiao, "Ms. Zhuang doesn't know yet?"

Zhuang Xiao then looked at Tu Yan, "Boss Tu?"

"This is the result of your own hard work. Universities are supposed to select students based on their talents and train professional talents. Although you have a weak foundation, you are hardworking and talented, and you have been unanimously recommended by the teachers." Tu Yan said calmly, "University W values ​​talents, and has given you an exception to admit you."

Zhuang Xiao's heart began to beat violently, and his breathing became rapid with surprise, "Is this... is this also possible?"

She didn't even dare to think about it. She thought that she would still have to work ten or a hundred times harder to get the same opportunity as others, and she would still have to compromise with the pressure of survival in reality.

Vice President Jiang listened to Tu Yan's serious nonsense, swallowed his saliva, and helped to smooth things over: "Okay."

"The school will enroll adults anyway, and Miss Zhuang is highly praised by the teaching staff. How can the school miss out on a talent like you?"

“However, according to the procedure, you still have to take the exam before you can go through the formalities and enroll in the school,” Vice President Jiang added.

Zhuang Xiao nodded with emotion, "Of course I will. I will prepare well and will not let the teachers down!"

Vice President Jiang nodded in agreement. As they walked, he introduced the school's structure to Zhuang Xiao. They visited the cafeteria, the playground, the central lake, and then entered the area of ​​the Art Department.

Tu Yan fell back a step and looked at Zhuang Xiao's eyes shining with joy. A smile also appeared on his face, and he felt that the money was well spent.

As soon as the group entered the Art Academy, the vice-president hurried over. When he arrived, he politely apologized to Tu Yan and offered to treat the two of them to a meal as an apology.

Zhuang Xiao felt a little flattered, "You are so polite..."

"No, no, no." The vice principal waved his hands repeatedly, "It's my duty."

Zhuang Xiao glanced at Tu Yan. He had so much power even though he wasn't even on the rich list yet? W University was a prestigious institution of higher learning. How could the vice president be so flattering when Tu Yan came?

The vice-president was really eager to invite Tu Yan to dinner.

Are you kidding? All they need is a laboratory building and 50 million in funding, which must be at least over 100 million. You know, due to the shortage of research and equipment, several scientific research professors are about to be poached by other schools.

In his eyes, Tu Yan was a living gilded Buddha - the kind that would spit out gold if you worshiped it.

"No need for dinner." Tu Yan declined, and then looked around the studios in the corridor. "I see that the art department has so many majors and four classes of students. This studio is a bit small. I will make an additional investment in my personal name, and it will be used exclusively for expanding the studio."

The vice-president smiled so hard that wrinkles appeared on his face. "No wonder Mr. Tu's business is so big. He is really kind-hearted and cherishes talent."

The vice-president glanced at Zhuang Xiao secretly, wondering if he was just kind and appreciative of his girlfriend.

Tu Yan obviously didn't like being fawned over by a bunch of people. After saying that he and Zhuang Xiao could just go shopping on their own, several leaders added Zhuang Xiao's contact information and said, "I'll communicate with you about the follow-up matters. If you have any questions, please contact me directly."

After the others left, Tu Yan took Zhuang Xiao's hand again, and this time Zhuang Xiao did not struggle.

"Can we hold hands now?" Tu Yan glanced at her.

"There was someone just now." Zhuang Xiao rolled his eyes at him and answered seriously, "And, it was in the school..."

Tu Yan took her to the artificial lake, which is a popular dating spot for couples in all universities. The breeze from the lake blew towards her, making her feel relaxed and happy.

In such a youthful campus environment, Tu Yan also became childish, "What's wrong with the school? Is Xiaoxiao, a good student, afraid of being caught by the dean?

"Tu Yan teased her and tapped her nose, "Are you a primary school student?"

Zhuang Xiao pouted in displeasure at what he said, but couldn't find an angle to refute.

"How much did you spend?" Zhuang Xiao asked the question cautiously, kicking the stones on the ground. She was a little afraid to think about it.

She had a feeling that it might be an astronomical figure, and she was afraid of owing him—even though she already owed him a lot.

"Don't worry, I won't let myself lose money." Tu Yan said slowly, his eyes falling on Zhuang Xiao.

To be precise, he now feels that he has made back his investment. For Tu Yan, anything that can be solved with money is not a problem.

This sum of money can help Zhuang Xiao realize his wish, make himself happy, and also make him famous in the university, making it easier to recruit talents in the future. It is very cost-effective.

Before the two of them were together, he had planned to sponsor Zhuang Xiao to go to college, and the confirmation of their relationship promoted the progress of this matter.

Although she is cheerful every day, enjoys her job as a cleaner and is diligent in her job as a secretary, Tu Yan hopes that she has a career that she truly likes, rather than a job that she has to do just to survive.

Zhuang Xiao raised the corner of his mouth and revealed a slightly sweet smile, "Then...what about my job?"

She didn't realize that compared to her previous habit of relying on herself for everything, she had begun to learn to seek advice and help from Tu Yan and try to rely on others.

"The sponsorship I gave increased the full scholarship to the Art College, including full tuition and living expenses." Tu Yan looked into Zhuang Xiao's clear eyes and said gently, "It depends on whether you have the ability to do it."

The two had not been together for long, but Tu Yan knew that Zhuang Xiao was strong-willed and independent, so he did not take on too much.

And, he believed her.

Zhuang Xiao's mood really lifted. "Okay, just wait and see!"
