377: Chapter 377 The Huge Group of Relatives and Friends (1)_1 377: Chapter 377 The Huge Group of Relatives and Friends (1)_1 Although Situ Xin knew that her mother was just putting on an act, every ti she saw her mother’s pitiful expression, she would surrender with a raise of her hand.
“Alright, alright, everyone goes, we all go.”
With no other options, Situ Xin grabbed her backpack, hugged Baibai, and resignedly settled into the car.
“Sigh, Baibai, do you think it’s necessary for so many people to follow just to register?” Situ Xin complained to Baibai as she sat in the car, looking at the family mbers seated around her.
However, Situ Xin forgot that Baibai herself had cheekily insisted on coming along, so it was unlikely that Baibai would share her perspective on the issue.
Sure enough, Baibai replied, “Oh, Master, you should feel happy.
So many people escorting you to register shows that everyone cares about you.
It ans you hold an important place in everyone’s heart.” Baibai certainly wouldn’t admit that she wanted to co along simply because she felt bored and wanted to get out for a bit.
It wasn’t until the car stopped at the entrance of Capital City University, that Situ Xin realized the so-called ‘family and friends group’ prior to this was nothing compared to the current spectacle.
Situ Xin looked at the fluttering colorful banners outside and the large banner stretching across the entrance which read: “Welco all leaders to our school for visit and guidance.” Several expectant university officials stood at the door.
Such a display made the new students and parents revealing curious expressions.
Situ Xin could pretty much guess what everyone was whispering about.
It was nothing more than: “I wonder which high-ranking official is visiting the school today, to have our university leaders here to greet them at the entrance.”
“Grandpa, Grandfather, don’t tell that all this is for welcoming you two,” Situ Xin asked through the car window, pointing at the banners and strears outside.
“Eh, it should be,” Old Master Situ rembered receiving a call from Principal Jin of Capital City University the previous night, inquiring whether his granddaughter would be registering the next day.
While replying, Old Master Situ casually ntioned that he and Old Master Loo would accompany their precious granddaughter to register at the university.
Little did Old Master Situ realize that his offhand comnt would lead to today’s situation.
“Let’s get out of the car.
It’s not polite to have people waiting for us at the entrance,” Old Master Loo noted Situ Xin’s reluctance to make such a high-profile appearance and her hesitance to step out of the car in front of everyone.
But Old Master Loo didn’t share that sentint; he didn’t think hiding Situ Xin’s identity as the young lady of both the Situ and Loo Families was a good thing.
Capital City was the capital of Country H and a gathering place for the powerful.
Especially in a top university like Capital City University, many students behind the scenes had their own powerful connections.
Old Master Loo’s reasoning was simple: he feared that if Situ Xin didn’t reveal her background, she might be bullied by her classmates or even teachers, which neither of their families wanted to see happen.
However, Old Master Loo had forgotten that his precious granddaughter was not like the others; with her skills, no one could bully her.
This was perhaps a case of Old Master Loo’s concern clouding his judgnt.
As Old Master Loo spoke, he was the first to open the car door and step out.
Once Situ Xin was alone in the car, she grudgingly got out with Baibai in her arms.
“The two senior leaders.
Welco, a warm welco indeed.
Your visit to Capital City University is a great honor for us,” a middle-aged man ca forward earnestly, taking Old Master Situ’s hand with an excited expression.
“Senior leaders, welco to Capital City University for your visit and guidance,” the rest of the university officials followed with warm smiles, greeting the Old Masters.
“Xiao Jin, today we two old fellows are not any leaders; we are rely escorting our Baby to register,” said Old Master Loo, who then turned and called Situ Xin who was standing behind him, “Baby, co here, et your principal and teachers for the next four years.
Though Situ Xin was reluctant at first after coming off the car, she soon adopted a docile smile and obediently moved to Old Master Loo’s side, greeting the officials, “Principal Jin, leaders, teachers, hello,”
“Don’t call principal, just call ‘uncle’,” Principal Jin said to Situ Xin, his deanor and expression radiating kindness—a stark contrast to his usual serious facade that could reprimand people without a second thought.
While these university officials weren’t high-ranking, they knew what they needed to for their day-to-day work.
They were cautious of offending any important ‘princes’ or ‘princesses,’ as doing so could ruin their entire career.
Therefore, the university officials were exceptionally clear on the background of the major families in Capital City.
They had heard a lot about the little princesses of the Situ and Loo Families but had never seen her at public events and nobody had pictures of her.
Today, upon seeing Situ Xin, they all thought: “No wonder the Situ and Loo Families have kept their little princess so well-hidden.
They’ve been protecting her so thoroughly, because of her exquisite beauty—one that truly drives the nation wild.”
True, Situ Xin’s appearance, although she had used magic to conceal part of her true looks, still left people awestruck even with the bits she chose to reveal.
“Grandpa, Grandfather, since you rarely get out to stroll around, I think Capital City University has so nice scenery.
Why don’t you let these uncles and aunties give you a little tour?
This could be a preview of the environnt I’ll be studying in for the next four years,” Situ Xin suggested, winking at Old Master Xiao and Old Master Loo, then continued, “As for the registration, Mom and I can handle it.”
How could Old Master Situ and Old Master Loo not understand their precious granddaughter’s intentions?
And since they had achieved their purpose for the day, they quickly agreed to let her go.
