The all-round academic master's girlfriend

Chapter 232 Misunderstood

Tang Yuze and Xia Jinxi finally drove the car to Guangming School.

Normally, everyone should be on summer vacation at this time, but He Banxue still chose to let them meet at school.

When Tang Yuze and Xia Jinxi arrived at the school together, He Banxue, who had only a few white hairs on her head, and a girl who looked like a junior high school student were playing games with a few children in the lower grades of elementary school.

"Principal grandma!"

After seeing He Banxue, Xia Jinxi shouted and greeted her from a distance and trotted over to her.

"Xiao Xi?"

He Banxue looked at Xia Jinxi standing in front of her and suddenly felt a little dazed.

It has been more than two years since Xia Jinxi left their village, but her appearance has not changed much. She is still as beautiful and pretty as ever.

So He Banxue recognized her at first sight.

But apart from that, both the confident smile on the girl's face and the temperament she exuded were things she had never seen before.

"It's me, the principal's grandmother."

Xia Jinxi reached out and hugged He Banxue, but they quickly separated.

He Banxue looked at Xia Jinxi again.

Xia Jinxi was wearing a Lolita-style princess dress today. The dress was intricate and exquisite, with layered hems that swayed lightly with her steps, like lily petals swaying gently in the morning light. It was romantic yet girlishly playful.

The color of the skirt is either soft pale blue, like a newly blooming flower, or pure and flawless white, which sets off her snow-like skin and adds a touch of purity that is untainted by dust.

The skirt is embroidered with delicate patterns, which are intricate vines entwined with small flowers. Every stitch and every thread reveals the craftsman's hard work and ultimate pursuit of beauty.

She wore hair accessories that matched her skirt, including a small pearl hairpin and a lace headband that gently fell on her shoulders, adding a touch of gentleness and softness to her.

Yesterday, Xia Jinxi was wearing a simple outfit of a T-shirt and shorts, but today she changed into a princess dress.

She hoped to tell He Banxue in this way that she was living happily in the city and there was no need to worry.

"Hello, Ms. He, I am Tang Yuze, Xia Jinxi's brother. You took care of Xiaoxi when she was a child."

Tang Yuze, who was walking slowly towards them from behind, also arrived and began to greet He Banxue.

"Ah."

Compared with her enthusiastic attitude towards Xia Jinxi, He Banxue's treatment of Tang Yuze seemed a little indifferent.

"I heard from Xiao Xi that you are not only Xia Jinxi's brother, but also her boyfriend, right?"

There was a lot of scrutiny in her eyes when she looked at Tang Yuze.

"Yes."

Tang Yuze admitted it generously.

He had no intention of hiding this matter. Even if Xia Jinxi hadn't told He Banxue in advance, Tang Yuze would have told her.

"Hey, Xiao Xi, I'm not saying anything bad about you."

"Our school teachers have worked so hard to educate you, just to get you out of the village."

"After you left, you actually started dating your sworn brother!"

"Of course the principal doesn't forbid you from dating. University is indeed the right age to date."

"But considering your situation, it's not a good idea to fall in love too early. You must study hard first and gain a foothold there before considering other things."

There is one more thing that He Banxue didn’t mention.

That is, she was worried that Xiao Xi was actually selling herself out in order to continue staying in the city.

Of course she knew that Xia Jinxi was not that kind of casual girl.

At the beginning, Xia Wenxuan wanted to sell Xia Jinxi on the spot. When he brought the human traffickers back home, Xia Jinxi threatened to commit suicide with a fruit knife.

This incident caused a big uproar at the time. All the surrounding villagers ran to the Xia family and beat the human traffickers out of the village.

But they could never interfere too much in the Xia family's affairs.

Xia Wenxuan, who failed to exchange his daughter for money, finally vented his anger on Xia Jinxi and beat her up.

The good news is that a few days later, Xia Jinxi was taken away by Lin Hui.

Although Xia Jinxi may not necessarily find happiness after moving to the city, and there may be people in her new family who do not like her, going to the city to start a new life is definitely better than continuing to live with Xia Wenxuan.

How does the saying on the Internet go?

Oh yes, we are already at the bottom, and no matter how we go, we are heading upwards.

So He Banxue always believed that Xia Jinxi was not a casual girl and no one could force her.

But the real problem is that people change...

He Banxue has also seen many people whose personalities changed drastically when they returned to their hometowns after living in the city.

So she still had doubts about Tang Yuze's character.

"Principal He is right."

"It is very difficult for children in the village to truly leave the countryside and gain a foothold in the city. Your concerns are not wrong."

"But if you know Xiao Xi, you should know that although she is weak and simple, she always has a bottom line in her heart."

"No one can force her to do anything below the bottom line."

Of course Tang Yuze could also see that He Banxue had no trust in him at all, and even had some hostility towards him.

She must be worried that Xia Jinxi was forced to date her sworn brother Tang Yuze because of various pressures, right?

In fact, she was totally overthinking it.

After all, Liu Lin had told him about this matter when he realized his feelings and was wondering whether he should just confess directly.

Tang Yuze and Xia Jinxi are not in the same position. In this situation, if Tang Yuze confesses to her, Xia Jinxi has no right to refuse given her situation.

Fortunately, his sister expressed her feelings first, and Tang Yuze followed suit, so he didn't have so much psychological burden.

"By the way, my father used to be friends with Xia Wenxuan. I also came here when I was a child, and Xiao Xi and I were childhood sweethearts."

He Banxue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Tang Yuze say that he and Xia Jinxi were childhood sweethearts.

In their village, there are many people who have lived their entire lives from childhood to adulthood.

This kind of childhood sweetheart relationship is the most encouraged in their village and deserves everyone's blessing.

But in the case of Xia Jinxi and Tang Yuze, who played together for a few days when they were young and met again when they grew up, can they really be considered childhood sweethearts?

This question is debatable.

“I can assure you that we are absolutely a double-edged sword.”

"Besides, we were dating in high school and now we are both admitted to Li Ning University."

Until last night, they did something unhealthy...

After saying that, Tang Yuze smiled and took out their admission letters.

When He Banxue saw that the two of them were actually admitted to the same university, Li University, the top university in their province, she finally felt relieved.

This Tang Yuze really treats Xia Jinxi well.

"Xiao Xi, you have a good brother. You should learn more from him in the future."

"Of course! I was able to go directly to Jiangcheng Middle School because my brother gave me extra lessons at home."

Xia Jinxi was very proud to be able to brag about her boyfriend to her former teacher.

"Principal, my brother is amazing. Not only did he get into Li University, he's also the top scorer in science this year!"

"First in the college entrance examination? Is that true?!"

He Banxue really wanted to search what this year's national science champion looked like, but it was not a good idea to search in front of others.

I can only believe it first.

Tang Yuze gave Xia Jinxi a resentful look.

You told others about our relationship in advance, so why didn't you introduce my personality charm to them first?

As a result, when he first arrived, he was considered a bad guy!
