Why her?!!!

Thinking about all these things, Weiwei soon reached the Li family house. Wanqi came out to get her inside with Aunty Zhang, who took her bags and carried it inside.

Wanqi also brought Weiwei into the house affectionately. Li Tangfei and Li Junli were also present there. Weiwei greeted them but not so enthusiastically like she used to earlier. Tangfei wanted to ask her what was she thinking but Aunt Zhang served the food and they all sat down to eat.

While eating Wanqi asked Weiwei about her day at school and how she had performed in studies and all. But Weiwei on the other hand was absentminded throughout the complete conversation. She only responded with a yes, no or good. Tangfei cut Wanqi, who was speaking in the middle and asked, "Weiwei is something troubling you today? I have been noticing you aren't fully focused while eating and also not responding to your mother? What's wrong dear? Tell daddy and he will solve it for you? Hmm?"

"Nothing daddy. I was just wondering where is sister? Mom said that she would be coming to my school today but I did not see her anywhere. I am worried about her. What if she got into trouble?" Weiwei said while feigning ignorance with a worried expression on her face.

She was very jealous when she saw the news about Lixue on the Silverleaf forum but she could not bring herself to believe it. 'After all if Lixue really went to Silverleaf then why wouldn't her mom and dad know? And why would mom tell her that she would be joining her school today?'

Thinking all this she came to a conclusion that the news on the forum was probably wrong but she still needed to confirm it.

Hearing what Weiwei said Junli also looked up from his plate and looked at his dad. He was also wondering about the reason.

"Your sister--- she- " Wanqi hesitated to say. But Tangfei helped her finish saying, "Lixue knew the principal of Silverleaf and had a recommendation letter with her. So she has gone to Silverleaf to complete her studies."

Weiwei was stunned. 'What?? She has gone to Silverleaf?" She asked dropping her chopsticks. 'Lixue had the recommendation letter of Principal Xie? What kind of an International joke is this?' She thought. 'So the news on the forum is right. Damn it! Why her?!! What qualifications did she have to join such a prestigious school. Even she, herself hasn't been able to pass but her? Whyyyy?!!!' Wei wei was jealous. In fact she was very very jealous. All she wanted was to strangle Lixue right here.

Junli who was silent, looked at weiwei and said, "She has only gone to Silverleaf. There's nothing to worry about? Why so shocked?"

Weiwei quickly covered her jealous expression and smiled at everyone and said," No, I'm happy for elder sis. She could go to a prestigious school. I'm sure she will learn well over there and be happy. But I was surprised that she did not tell this to even mom and dad beforehand. This isn't a good thing. She should at least tell us." She said the last part looking sad.

Wanqi became embarrassed hearing this. She, after all really did not cared about her elder daughter. So why would she ask her about school and other stuff? "Forget it. Let's not think about it. She has gone there but I wonder how she is going to cope up with studies. At the end of the day, she is not good at studies." She said.

Tangfei heard his wife and couldn't help saying," She's your daughter. How can you say that? Even if she's not good at studies, there's always Weiwei and Junli to help her right?"

Wanqi got embarrassed and stayed quite. "Tomorrow I'll be going to meet mom. Will you come with me Weiwei?" She asked successfully changing the topic.

"There's a lot of school work ma. I'll see if I can make time to go with you." weiwei said. How was she supposed to say that she did not like that old and frail woman. So she politely refused but did not refuse.

In some secluded part of the city, the gates of a mansion opened and inside came a car. Tingfeng got down from that car and made his way inside. He saw Butler Lu and Zixie chatting while sitting on the sofa.

Butler Lu saw him and quickly got up and greeted him. Tingfeng nodded in response and told him to ask the kitchen to prepare food.

He then turned to Zixie and said, "You'd better bring the book to me by tomorrow."

"It'll arrive at night. Don't worry Brother. When have I let you down?"

"Every time." After saying so he went up.

Butler Lu stood there stunned. He felt like Young master Yue was in a really good mood after returning from school. "Ahem! Young master Zixie, today is Young master in a good mood? Did he meet the lady whom he liked?"

"No! He is suddenly looking after a little kid. Don't worry Butler Lu, you know his temperament. Even if you ask him, he won't tell us anything." Zixie might have said this but he too was very curious as to why Tingfeng was helping the little girl in school. 'Forget it' he thought and went back to the sofa and started scrolling on his phone.

Butler Lu also went to the kitchen to give orders.

Upstairs Tingfeng opened his phone and wrote out a text. [Have you got any leads?]

After writing this he went to bath and then downstairs for dinner.

He did not see the phone screen lit up and a reply that had come. [Yes.]
