Chapter 1026: Mo Family Princess’s Marriage [28] Chapter 1026: Mo Family Princess’s Marriage [28] “`
A new week arrived quickly.

That afternoon, as the class-ending bell rang, Su Wanwan sleepily raised her head, “Hmm? Is class over?”

Mo Weiyi nodded, “Hmm.”

Su Wanwan hurriedly got up, “Weiyi, I’m going to race cars tonight. I’ll catch a ride with you later.”

Mo Weiyi blinked his large, curious eyes at her, “Didn’t you decide to study abroad in Los Angeles? Why are you still racing? Are you short of money again? Or did Uncle Su cut off your allowance?”

“Not at all,” Su Wanwan packed up her bag haphazardly, “Purely because it’s boring in the dorm at night, I wanted to go out and have some fun. Or… do you want to come with me?”

Mo Weiyi quickly shook his head.

“Then I’ll hitch a ride with you. The place I’m going to this time is right on the road behind your house.”

“I’ll call Uncle Liu,” Mo Weiyi took out his mobile phone.

Su Wanwan stood up.

It wasn’t until she finished the call that she lifted her foot and kicked the chair, “Let’s go.”

“I’ve told Uncle Liu, he’ll take you there. I won’t be going,” Mo Weiyi said seriously, “I’ve enrolled in the school’s sprint class. Starting today, I’ll take two extra hours of lessons after school every day.”

Su Wanwan: “???”

No way?

That’s so intense?

“Didn’t Uncle Mo get you a tutor?”

“That’s different,” Mo Weiyi said, “My foundations are too weak, I need to attend more classes.”

Before Su Wanwan could agree, a voice came from the classroom door, “Students signed up for the sprint class, please gather in the multimedia room immediately.”

Mo Weiyi hurriedly got up.

In addition to him, two other students in their class had signed up, a boy and a girl, both of whom alternated between the first and second ranking in terms of grades.

Su Wanwan was stupefied, “Damn, you really signed up? Are you serious about getting into Nancheng University?”

“Did you think I was joking?” Mo Weiyi snorted arrogantly, “You look down on me, don’t you?”

“No, it’s just…” Su Wanwan said diplomatically, “Even if you start working hard now, there’s less than half a year left. Nancheng University isn’t that easy to get into, and besides…”

“How can I know if I don’t give it a try? Does ‘where there’s a will there’s a way’ mean nothing to you?” Mo Weiyi interrupted her, “Besides, with enough effort, even an iron rod can be ground into a needle. I refuse to believe that I can’t get in after all this hard work!”

Su Wanwan snorted, “You talk as if it’s noble, but isn’t this all just to marry Xiao Yebai after getting into Nancheng University?”

“Exactly,” Mo Weiyi did not deny, “For Xiaobai, I must get into Nancheng University! If I don’t get in this year, I’ll review and take the exam next year. If I don’t make it next year, I’ll keep reviewing and try the year after! Anyway, Xiaobai said that if I can get in through my own efforts, he’ll consider marrying me… this marriage… anyway, I’m set on it!”

“Then work hard. Aim to nail it next year so I can still make it to your wedding. Otherwise, I’ll be abroad, and who knows when I’ll be back…”

“Do you even need to say that?” Mo Weiyi curled his lip, brimming with confidence, “By the time I finish the college exams next year, you’ll come to me and Xiaobai’s wedding. That way, once you’re abroad, Xiaobai will be with me, and I won’t be lonely or sad.”

Su Wanwan chuckled, “…Good luck!”

**
In the following days, Mo Weiyi attended the sprint class every day after school.

He’d have dinner at home in the evening and then continue with the tutor’s lessons.

After homework and practice, the days slowly passed in a routine of diligent effort.

As for Xiao Yebai…

Busy with the investment work at Dong Cheng, he continued to leave early and come back late from the office.

As a result, even though they lived in the same villa, he rarely saw Mo Weiyi.

Until New Year’s Day.

At half-past eight in the morning, Xiao Yebai came to the dining room on the first floor.

The domestic staff were busy at work.

“Young Master Xiao, good morning.”

“Good morning,” Xiao Yebai politely greeted back and took a seat.

“I apologize, Young Master Xiao,” the staff said, “Zhou Auntie had to go back to her hometown for an emergency. I’m preparing the princess’s breakfast today. What would you like, sir? I’ll get it ready for you.”

Xiao Yebai glanced at the table.

Soy milk, milk, beef porridge, steamed buns, egg pancakes, sandwiches…

A feast of Chinese and Western breakfasts spread luxuriantly before him.

True to a little princess, even her breakfast is like a full Manchu-Han banquet…

He said indifferently, “No need, I’ll just have something quick.”

“…Alright,” the staff member nodded, and silently breathed a sigh of relief.

Having worked for the Mo Family for several years, this was their first time at the Princess Villa.

Zhou Auntie mentioned that the Little Princess was very picky and had high standards for food, so she prepared a detailed breakfast and dinner menu for her.

The staff had gotten up early at six in the morning to prepare, yet they still couldn’t manage to make everything in time…

Thankfully, Young Master Xiao was kind and not picky…

Sounds came from the staircase.

The staff cheerfully greeted, “Princess, good morning.”

Mo Weiyi came down the stairs sluggishly, feeling somewhat drowsy from staying up late doing practice problems. But when she caught sight of the man sitting by the dining table, her eyes lit up, “Xiaobai!”

“`
Xiao Yebai quietly ate his breakfast, not speaking.

His face expressionless, plus those rimless, scholarly glasses, made him appear especially aloof.

Mo Weiyi hurried his steps and ran up to him, sitting down in front of him with a smile, gazing at him with beautiful, adoring cat-eyes, “Xiaobai, why aren’t you at work today?”

These past days, Xiao Yebai had been very busy. Every morning when she came downstairs for breakfast, he had already gone to the company.

He would not return until late at night…
Even on weekends, he often had to go out for social engagements…
Mo Weiyi had resolved to study hard, so she hadn’t bothered him much recently…
As a result, the two of them really didn’t have many opportunities to see each other.

At her question now, the man simply said, “Today is New Year’s Day.”

Brief and to the point.

Mo Weiyi uttered an “oh,” “Right, I almost forgot there’s no school today, but I have to go to make-up classes. I signed up for a sprint class – it’s two hours after school every day, and I have to attend classes at school even on holidays…”
Xiao Yebai did not respond.

Amidst her chirping report, the servants had finished bringing the last few dishes to the table.

The long dining table was crowded with an assortment of pots, bowls, plates, and dishes.

And Mo Weiyi also picked up her chopsticks, ready to eat breakfast.

The next second.

She suddenly furrowed her brows, her expression displeased.

The servants were nervous and quickly explained, “Princess, these are the dishes Mrs. Zhou gave me the recipes for. If you want something else, just tell me, and I’ll make it right away…”
“It’s not that…” Mo Weiyi cut her off, her brows tightly knit, “Did Mrs. Zhou ask you to make all this?”

The servant nodded.

Mo Weiyi, the little princess of the Mo family, was someone they dare not neglect; the breakfast was prepared with great care…
Mo Weiyi said, “It’s too much.”

The servant was startled, “Ah?”

Mo Weiyi picked up a crab meat bun with her chopsticks and placed it in her bowl, “You made too much. Xiaobai and I can’t finish it all, what a waste!”

Servant: “…”
So it was because… of the waste?

Alright, that gave her a fright.

The dining room returned to silence.

Mo Weiyi was eating breakfast and didn’t see that the man opposite of her paused, raised his eyes to glance at her, and then quickly looked away.

…
The breakfast was not yet finished when the phone on the table suddenly rang.

Mo Weiyi answered the call with one hand, “Hello, Si Haoran, what’s up?”

Si Haoran…
That was obviously a boy’s name.

“I’m eating breakfast. Don’t worry, I’ll be in the classroom by nine.” Mo Weiyi said, “Uh-huh, bring the reference book with you. See you then, bye.”

After hanging up, she immediately put down her chopsticks and bowl, “I’m not eating anymore, I’m going to be late for class.”

…
Mo Weiyi hastily ran back upstairs.

There was still a lot of breakfast left on the dining table.

Just as Mo Weiyi had said, the two of them really couldn’t finish it all.

Xiao Yebai also put down his chopsticks and bowl and took out a napkin to wipe his fingers.

The servant looked and asked, “Young Master Xiao, you’re not eating either?”

Xiao Yebai: “I’m done eating.”

“Okay.” The servant came forward to clean up the dining table.

Until she came out of the kitchen once again, Xiao Yebai was still sitting beside the dining table.

She didn’t understand…
She didn’t dare to ask…
She silently wiped the dining table clean with a cloth, and just as she was about to turn around, sounds once again came from the stairs.

Mo Weiyi had already put on her coat, holding a backpack in her hand, her hair cascading to her waist, hurrying down from the second floor.

She was about to rush out when something caught her eye out of the corner of her eye…
Mo Weiyi stopped in her tracks, “Xiaobai, aren’t you going out today… for engagements?”

Xiao Yebai, with one hand resting on the dining table and holding a wristwatch in the other, looked indifferent. Hearing her words, he slowly turned his face toward her, his voice faint, “To do what?”

Mo Weiyi immediately curled her lips.

Her eyes lit up with hopeful brightness.

She said, “I’m going for make-up classes. Could you drive me to school?”
