Reborn as a Fake Heiress Marrying the Tycoon novel Chapter 1047

Chapter 1047: University Acceptance Letter

As Su Li continued packing the food, he carefully selected some pastries and fruit, then paused for a moment. He looked up at his mother and, with a hint of hesitation, spoke. “Mom, I want to take these delicious things to Xu Sheng. We agreed on it, and he’s not feeling well. He’s all alone, it’s really pitiful.”

Gu Zi hadn’t expected Xu Sheng to fall ill again so soon, but she couldn’t help but feel a touch of concern. “But if his mother sees you bringing him food, she’ll be upset. What will we do then?”

Su Li smiled slyly, sealing the last food container with a gentle click. “Don’t worry, Mom. I’ll make sure Xu Sheng gets them without his mother noticing. Besides, she’s been coming home late these days. As soon as I get there, I’ll leave the food in the right spot, and there won’t be any problems.”

He continued packing the three boxes of food into a bag, with Gao Ming helping to add the other two. Gao Ming commented, “This should be plenty for Xu Sheng. We don’t want to overdo it; the weather’s warm, and food spoils easily.”

Gu Zi, looking at the five large boxes of food, couldn’t help but chuckle. ‘That’s not exactly ‘a little,’ is it?’ she couldn’t help thinking.

But seeing how kind Su Li was being, she held her tongue. After all, Xu Sheng had it tough, and the least she could do was not stand in the way of her son’s generosity.

Once the packing was done, Su Li was ready to leave. Meanwhile, the Lin family had finished their meal, and they made plans to head back together, with Lin Cheng offering to drive.

Just as everyone was about to leave, Su Jing arrived—this time with a guest. A tall man with a distinguished presence, sporting a military-like build and long, flowing hair that seemed to embody a certain artistic flair.

“Sis,” Su Jing said with a grin, “I went to pick up my mentor. He’s come all the way to see you.”

Gu Zi, a little taken aback, now understood why Su Jing had been absent for a while. She had been picking up her revered mentor.

Su Jing hadn’t mentioned it before, but now, Gu Zi was learning that her mentor was none other than a prestigious honorary professor at the Imperial Capital University—a rather well-kept secret.

As Xu Cong finished speaking, Su Jing stepped forward with a beautifully wrapped package. She opened it to reveal the much-anticipated letter.

In front of a crowd of eager witnesses, Xu Cong handed it to Gu Zi with a gentle, formal gesture. The moment the letter touched her hands, the entire room erupted in applause, a thunderous wave of joy and admiration for Gu Zi.

For someone like Gu Zi, gaining admission to the prestigious Imperial Capital University wasn’t unexpected. But what was truly surprising was the speed with which she received the acceptance letter, delivered personally by such an esteemed professor.

The guests knew that this was a clear testament to the university’s high regard for Gu Zi. After all, this year’s entrance exam was particularly challenging, and for Gu Zi to perform so well, it was a remarkable achievement. It was clear that she was a rare talent with exceptional mental fortitude.

The guests marveled at how the university valued students not only for their academic prowess but also for their psychological resilience. They were taking no chances—Imperial Capital University surely didn’t want to risk losing such a bright student to overseas institutions.

Although the banquet was nearing its end, Xu Cong’s arrival brought a fresh surge of excitement. Gu Zi, who had been planning to leave, found herself staying longer to properly entertain the professor. She quickly instructed Jin Long to set up another table to host Xu Cong. It was the least she could do for the esteemed guest who had traveled so far to deliver such wonderful news.
