Chapter: 5207

As she saw Ye Cheng at the door, her eyes sparkled slightly as she said, "Ye Cheng brother, you're here already..."

Li Xiaofen was taken aback by Claudy's meticulously dressed appearance, exclaimed, "You're not going to school today, are you? Are you going to debut right away?! Maybe I should look at you this year, don't go to school, and participate in the domestic talent show instead! Who knows, you might just become famous!"

Claudy smiled slightly, asking her back, "Sister Xiaofen, how can one person form a group? Or are we going to team up?"

Li Xiaofen pouted, saying, "Two people aren't even considered a group. A girl group should have at least seven or eight members..."

Claudy laughed and said, "At least we've taken the first step by being two brave souls."

Li Xiaofen hummed and said, "I don't want to team up with you, Ye Cheng brother's welfare center is still waiting for me to take care of it with Mrs. Li..."

Just then, Ye Cheng opened his mouth to say to Claudy, "Claudy, if you have nothing else to do, let's leave now. The principal and the person in charge of recruiting international students are already there, just need to meet and go through the procedures."

"Okay!" Claudy hastily nodded her head and turned to Li Xiaofen, saying, "Sister Xiaofen, I'll just take off then!"

Li Xiaofen smiled and said, "Wait for you to get your notice, and we'll celebrate at noon with Mrs. Li!"

Ye Cheng raised an eyebrow and said, "Consider it done. Tell Mrs. Li that I'll make her some extra delicious dishes at noon."

Li Xiaofen exclaimed excitedly, "Really? Then I'll go to the supermarket right now and buy some good snacks to bring back!"

Ye Cheng asked her, "Do you want me to take a shortcut to send you there?"

Li Xiaofen waved her hand dismissively, saying, "Let the two of you go first. I still need to change my clothes. Can't I just leave the house wearing pajamas?"

Ye Cheng nodded and beckoned Claudy aboard, then bid Li Xiaofen farewell and drove off towards Jinling University.

As they left the residential complex, Claudy asked nervously, "Brother Ye Cheng, will applying for school give you too much trouble?"

"No," Ye Cheng laughed. "Jinling University wants to internationalize, so there's a certain quota for international students every year. If we don't meet that quota, it'll put pressure on the person in charge. Moreover, your academic record from high school is excellent, and even if you apply yourself, you have a good chance of getting in. It's just that the process might be a bit more complicated. But I've arranged for someone to help simplify those procedures for you."

Claudy finally relaxed a bit, as she was afraid that her presence would cause too much trouble for Ye Cheng. After all, in her mind, Ye Cheng had already done so much for her.

Compared to when she worked at Mrs. Li's convenience store, Claudy had lost everything - family and possessions - and her heart was filled with thoughts of revenge. But now, she had a new environment and new people who were worth trusting and relying on. Her entire demeanor had changed.

Ye Cheng noticed this change in her and spoke seriously, saying, "Claudy, at Jinling University, Mrs. Li, Li Xiaofen, and I are your family members. Mrs. Li is like your mother, Li Xiaofen is like your older sister, and I am like your older brother. You're the youngest sibling in this family. You should never think about giving us any trouble. We'll always feel that helping our own family members who need help is not adding trouble to us."

Claudy saw Ye Cheng's words as extremely firm, and her heart was naturally moved to tears.

Although she believed in Mrs. Li and Li Xiaofen's good nature, but after all, there was no blood relationship, and she didn't have any living relatives, so her heart would inevitably feel a sense of being sheltered by others.

However, children who were left with relatives due to their parents' work relationships when they were young will understand this kind of feeling.

But Ye Cheng's words made her realize that Ye Cheng was truly treating her like family and viewing her as a little sister who needed careful nurturing and care.

This also made her heart's sense of being like a drifting leaf, with no sense of belonging, suddenly fade away half.

Ye Cheng continued: "In the future four years, you will work and live well in Jinling. When you graduate from university, if you want to continue your studies, I'll give my full support. If you want to work, I'll also give my full support. If you tell me that you've never found a sense of belonging in Jinling or even in China and want to go back to Canada, I'll personally escort you back. I just want you to know that from now on, as your older brother, I will do my best to ensure that you have no worries wherever you are." JrNovels.com
