Zhang Xin took a deep breath, no, she couldn’t fall out with him at this time, she still had to hope that Zhang Yu would fund her studies.

"But the major I’m studying would benefit even more from going abroad."

"And also..." Zhang Xin remembered how Zhang Guohua and the others had said taking Wang Yun abroad for a trip was a waste of money, and how Zhang Yu had refuted that.

"You also said that going out more to see the world is essential, especially for girls."

"How come when it’s my turn, I can’t go out?" Zhang Xin felt wronged, feeling that Zhang Yu was being hypocritical.

Wow, making progress, making progress, Zhang Yu couldn’t help but sigh.

Today’s kids just remember the things you say that are beneficial to them, but they absolutely do not remember what is not beneficial.

"I did say that," Zhang Yu suddenly remembered, realizing he had forgotten to pour water for Zhang Xin.

"Right, do you want a soda, mineral water, tea, or maybe coffee?" No matter what, the necessary hospitality must be there.

About that, Zhang Xin had been here once before and knew that Zhang Yu’s house had a lot of beverages, just no carbonated drinks.

You could always find something you like, Zhang Xin didn’t know what beverages she could choose from in Zhang Yu’s house now.

Seeing Zhang Xin uncertain how to choose, Zhang Yu said, "You can go check in the kitchen."

"If you want coffee, call me."

"Of course, it’s better not to call me." Preparing a cup of coffee meant also having to clean the coffee machine afterward. Just now, to enjoy a cup of coffee, she had spent more time cleaning the machine than making the coffee itself.

Hearing this, Zhang Xin, who was heading towards the kitchen, paused briefly in her steps, "What if I choose to drink coffee?"

"No matter, you are the guest after all." It wasn’t an unexpected response.

"Then I’ll have the coffee," Zhang Xin decided to still go for coffee; she wanted to taste for herself if there was any difference between the coffee at Zhang Yu’s home and that at the coffee shops outside.

Zhang Yu stood up and went to the kitchen to make coffee for Zhang Xin, and while she was at it, she also made a pot of rose tea for herself.

She would drink two cups every day, one in the afternoon and one after getting home.

When Zhang Xin’s coffee was ready, Zhang Yu’s rose tea was ready too.

Zhang Yu gestured for Zhang Xin to carry her own coffee, while she took her rose tea and sat down in the living room.

Zhang Xin tasted the coffee, "It’s not as good as the one from the shops."

"Right, they are in the business, they wouldn’t be successful if they weren’t skilled."

"I make it for myself, so of course, the skill isn’t there," Zhang Yu didn’t see any issue with what Zhang Xin said; it was the plain truth.

"Then why don’t you learn?" Zhang Xin couldn’t understand it, in her mind, was Zhang Yu not someone who had learned a lot? Floral arrangement, tea ceremony, and so on, she had learned quite a bit, so why had she not mastered coffee?

"I learned, but that’s my skill level," Zhang Yu stated frankly that this was her level.

Pouring herself a cup of rose tea and starting to drink, Zhang Xin looked at the beautiful color of the rose tea and suddenly felt a bit of regret.

Forget it, I’ll stick with the coffee; at first, it didn’t taste very good, but after a few sips, she found the flavor was actually quite nice.

You could tell the coffee was definitely made from excellent coffee beans, and besides, if they weren’t great coffee beans, would Zhang Yu drink it?

Zhang Xin felt Zhang Yu wasn’t being honest, the coffee was actually good, she just wouldn’t admit it, probably because she didn’t want her to have a second cup.

Wait a minute, how could she forget the main reason she came? How could she get stuck on this coffee issue?

"Sister-in-law, I got accepted into a graduate program at a prestigious university abroad." No, she had to steer the conversation back.

Wow, this girl managed to bring the topic back again, Zhang Yu felt a hint of regret inside.

"Congratulations." Zhang Yu congratulated her again, "But I’ve congratulated you several times already."

"I was accepted into a prestigious graduate school, but my grades weren’t that great, and I didn’t get a full scholarship,"

Zhang Xin reluctantly divulged the biggest issue she faced with studying abroad.

Ah? Zhang Yu’s face was a picture of shock—okay, even though there was no mirror to see how she looked.

But from Zhang Xin’s awkward expression, one could only tell her surprise was truly embarrassing.

Zhang Yu, forcing a polite smile, dropped the act, "I suppose you understand that without getting a full scholarship, the cost of studying abroad will be substantial."

As for how much scholarship money she did get, Zhang Yu had no desire to find out. What was she supposed to do, pay for it?

"My parents saved some money, saying it could be used for my study abroad, but it’s still not quite enough."

Zhang Xin knew the family had enough money, but if she wanted to stay and work there after graduating, she would need to buy a house, which would again require financial support from her family.

Would she turn to Zhang Yu for a loan when there wasn’t enough money for a house? It was obvious that she wouldn’t lend the money, only suggesting renting instead.

The only way Zhang Xin might persuade Zhang Yu to lend her money was by asserting it was for educational expenses.

"Not quite enough..." Zhang Yu didn’t believe it at all. Du Xia wasn’t a head teacher and couldn’t tutor, but Zhang Shouhua certainly could.

Even if they didn’t discuss their individual incomes, a double-teacher household with tutoring income would definitely afford their only daughter’s study abroad.

Zhang Yu stared at Zhang Xin for a long while, "You’re telling me your parents saved all this money, yet they can’t afford to send you abroad for studies?"

"Do you think I’m stupid?"

"Let me think." Zhang Yu poured a cup of tea, "Your parents have the money to send you abroad for your studies."

"But you want to stay there and work after graduating, hoping by then to buy a house with money that you obviously expect your parents to provide."

"You hope your parents’ money will go towards a house, while expecting me to shell out for your education."

Zhang Yu leaned back on the sofa, her gaze still smilingly fixed on Zhang Xin.

Zhang Xin’s mouth fell open; her own thought, apparently unknown even to Zhang Shouhua and his wife, seemed to have been exposed as if she were betrayed.

What was going on, how could Zhang Yu possibly know her plan? Zhang Xin felt as though she were choking, finding it incredibly hard to breathe.

Seeing Zhang Xin in such disarray, okay, just like in her previous life, no matter how much she distanced herself from them, they still schemed against her.

The family always called her cold-hearted, maybe they should see for themselves if she really was such a cold and heartless person.

If that were true, shouldn’t she be the one not scheming against them, staying away from them?

Yet here it was, still plotting, Zhang Yu felt exhausted. Why did she have to tangle with investors and recipients at work,

and then come home to the same restless scheming?

Zhang Xin could see the mockery in Zhang Yu’s eyes. No, she couldn’t admit it, absolutely couldn’t admit it, "No, my family really doesn’t have enough money."

"Little aunt, little aunt, you can ask my mom." Yes, asking Du Xia should do the trick. Zhang Xin knew she would definitely side with her.

Ask Du Xia? Zhang Yu chuckled, "Asking her would surely mean she’d back you up, better to ask your dad, my second brother."

Having said that, Zhang Yu picked up her phone to call Zhang Shouhua, leaving Zhang Xin dumbfounded by her move.

Wait, no, she couldn’t call Zhang Shouhua; if he found out, there would be serious consequences.

Zhang Xin watched Zhang Yu with the phone, thinking desperately how to stop her.

Sadly, before she could devise a plan, Zhang Yu had already called out "second brother" into the phone.

She knew it was too late, and she was doomed; she couldn’t even bear to think how Zhang Shouhua would handle this upon her return.
