Different Treatment

Soon, the examination for Saint College arrived.

The date and time for the examination was fixed each year. It normally took place half a month before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

One day before the examination day, Qing and Sword One helped her to pack up the stuff needed for the examination. All the participants would stay at the place specifically-appointed by Saint College instead of at home, and each participant was allowed to bring one servant with him or her. So Gu Chaoyan decided to bring Sword One there. Qing had been learning some martial arts from Sword One these days, but due to her grudge with County Princess Anxi, she was worried that Qing would be bullied when she was not noticing what was happening.

Qing was not at all sad being left behind. She liked sorting and taking care of the fruit trees in the yard.
