It was, coincidentally, at this time when Sister Liu summoned Ye Zhuo.

Ye Zhuo shifted her gaze to look toward Li Boyang. "I'm sorry. I shall head there first."

Upon saying that, she trotted away.

"What did you talk about with her, Boyang?" Qian Lingyu walked over from the side with a displeased expression. "If you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas. Be careful not to take on her undesirable traits!"

Qian Lingyu had never liked Ye Zhuo from the start, and she was afraid that Ye Zhuo would lead her precious son astray.

Meanwhile, Li Boyang chuckled and said, "Mom, I heard from Ye Zhuo earlier that she is studying in North Bridge High School; I think that it's possible that you might have misunderstood her."

"North Bridge? Her?" Qian Lingyu said with a disdainful expression. "She might as well tell you that she is studying at Tsinghua University then, right?"

Tsinghua University was the ivy league equivalent university in Beijing! It was also the academic institution that many scholars dreamt of attending.

Yet, the admission requirements were so high that only a few students were accepted annually.

Qian Lingyu wanted to get Li Boyang accepted into Tsinghua University so badly that she even dreamt about it. She said sincerely, "Boyang, let me tell you this. The prettier a girl is, the better she is at lying. Why don't you think about this... if she really did get accepted into North Bridge High School, is there a need for her to work for us?"

"Speak less to her from now on. I can see that she's jealous of you having a good family background, so she wants to" There was already no need for her to finish the rest of the sentence. Qian Lingyu added right away, "Boyang, you should understand that you and her don't belong to the same world."

Ye Zhuo was destined to work for other people for the rest of her life.

On the other hand, her son was going to get into a good university, and he would marry a city girl who was the only daughter of a family with a good educational background in the future! Ye Zhuo ain't one!

Li Boyang found that what his mother said made sense. If Ye Zhuo was really in North Bridge High School, she should be studying at home. How could she possibly have the time to distract herself by working here?

Could it be that she did not wish to get into a good university? The most reasonable explanation was that she was lying.

In truth, Li Boyang did not want to interact with Ye Zhuo. After all, birds of a feather flock together. However, his heart was racing beyond control every time he laid eyes on her he could feel that he was losing control of himself. It was very strange.

At night, Ye Zhuo headed to the gambling den with Ye Sen just the same. Like the previous night, she kept a low profile and did not show off her capability.

For the next few days, Ye Zhuo and Ye Sen headed to the gambling den every night; they won quite a lot of money through small winnings.

Li Qiandong and Cen Shaoqing were there every night as well.

Li Qiandong leaned against the guardrail and said with a smile, "Brother Fifth, see, I was right! She came every night! What sort of age are we living in now that she is still using the 'play hard to get' trick? What a joke!"

Cen Shaoqing looked toward the area and raised an eyebrow ever so slightly. "So, what do you think she will do next?"

Li Qiandong replied, "Next? She will be here at all times, rain or shine, until you notice her."
