After finishing all the preparations, Nan Song gathered his children to talk.
Nan ChaoYang had an awkward expression on his face, feeling uneasy.
What else? Don't scare him anymore!
Nan XiangWan was very calm. She thought that what's destined to be hers can't be avoided, and what's not meant to be can't be forced.
Nan Song: "Let's talk about your living expenses after going to college."
Nan ChaoYang breathed a sigh of relief. Phew, he was scared to death.
Xin Zi: "It's normal for expenses to be high when studying in the Imperial Capital. So dad and mom have decided to increase ChaoYang's living allowance. XiangWan, we won't give you a fixed amount. Just tell us if you're short on money."
Nan Song: "For ChaoYang, 5,000 a month should be enough!"
Nan ChaoYang: "!!!"
Did he hear that right? How much?
Nan Song: "ChaoYang, you'll need money when dating girls and taking them out in the Imperial Capital. Buying things there can cost tens of thousands. So I'll give you 5,000 a month."
Xin Zi didn't object for once and just drank water quietly.
Nan ChaoYang jumped up, blushing with excitement!
The benefits of adulthood were so great!
Wow!
Just then, Nan XiangWan suddenly spoke up: "Dad, are you sure this gaming addict ChaoYang will date?"
Nan Song: "What do you think of the plans I made for you, ChaoYang?"
Nan ChaoYang: "Uh, I'll be going to military school. And mom arranged special forces training for me. I should focus on studying and training first. And there aren't many girls at our school."
Nan XiangWan: "See, dad? He won't date."
Nan Song was anxious: "Training and school don't stop you from dating. Just because there are few girls you like, you can't try online dating?"
Nan XiangWan almost spit from amusement. Her father was so impatient.
Nan ChaoYang: "Oh, I..."
Nan XiangWan laughed and said: "Dad, set a standard for him. 2,000 a month if he doesn't date. Have him report when he gets a girlfriend, then adjust to 5,000."
Saying so, she winked at Nan ChaoYang.
Hehe, little one! Your sister is more cunning!
Nan ChaoYang's eyes widened in shock. He looked anxiously at Nan Song.
Nan Song thought for a bit: "That makes sense. 2,000 it is then."
Nan ChaoYang: "Ah!"
The money slipped away!
Nan XiangWan laughed till her stomach hurt. From 5,000 to 2,000, her brother must feel awful.
Nan ChaoYang looked at his giggling sister resentfully, devastated. How tragic!
Nan Song waved his hand: "Enough, don't look so dejected, ChaoYang. At least you get monthly allowance from me. Your sister doesn't."
Nan ChaoYang reflexively argued: "That's because she has her own money! How much does she earn per song or movie?"
Nan Song started scolding: "How shameless! You're the same age, why does XiangWan earn while you still ask the family? Where's your shame?"
Nan ChaoYang: "But..."
How was it his fault? He just graduated high school. What's wrong with asking the family for some money?
Ah! What's wrong?
Wah wah wah!
The afternoon meeting ended on the brother's grievance.
The parents returned to the kitchen to prepare an elaborate birthday dinner.
Nan XiangWan walked past Nan ChaoYang arrogantly, grinning at him.
Nan ChaoYang was so angry he jumped up: "Ahhh!"
But the next moment, he was caught and pinned to the wall by his sister!
Bang!
Nan XiangWan: "Still wanna fight me?"
Nan ChaoYang's face was squished: "I was wrong."
Nan XiangWan: "Where's my admission letter?"
Nan ChaoYang: "On your bedside table in your room."
Nan XiangWan let him go and ran upstairs to open the parcel.
Nan ChaoYang followed, puffed up with anger. He wanted to see which university his sister got into.
But unfortunately, Nan XiangWan shut the door in his face as soon as she entered her room.
She was grown up now, and needed privacy from her brother.
Nan ChaoYang knew better than to enter his sister's room without permission.
So he knocked on the door: "Open up! Let me see!"
Nan XiangWan ignored him and took out the EMS parcel, opening it.
Tearing off the packaging revealed an admission letter.
Congratulations Nan XiangWan on your admission to the People's Liberation Army National Defense University!
Report to the Academy of Military Culture (Special Forces Division) on September 3!
Seeing the words in brackets, Nan XiangWan blinked. So which was it, the Academy of Military Culture or the Special Forces Division?
They weren't the same thing!
Nan XiangWan immediately called her superior officer Han Ting, but he didn't pick up at first.
After a while, Han Ting called her back.
Nan XiangWan: "Captain, I received the admission letter."
Han Ting: "Just for that you called me?"
Nan XiangWan: "No, it's strange what's written here. Which academy did I get into? It lists two - the Academy of Military Culture Music Department, and a Special Forces Division without specifying an academy."
Han Ting: "Isn't it obvious? When's everyone else starting school?"
Nan XiangWan thought for a bit: "I think my brother said the 6th."
Han Ting: "There you go. Report to the Special Forces Division on the 3rd, the Music Department on the 6th to sing!"
Nan XiangWan: "Oh, I see."
Weird, why were the reporting dates different for one school?
Before hanging up, Han Ting instructed: "Destroy the letter."
Nan XiangWan: "Huh? Don't I need it to report?"
Han Ting scoffed: "You have an ID. You don't need it! The school has its ways to verify you're Nan XiangWan."
Nan XiangWan: "..."
Han Ting: "No one's seen your letter yet, right?"
Nan XiangWan glanced at her noisy brother outside and shook her head: "No, I just opened it."
Han Ting: "Good, best to burn it just in case."
Nan XiangWan: "Got it."
After the call, she crumpled the letter into a ball and went out.
Nan ChaoYang: "Let me see!"
Nan XiangWan ignored him and headed downstairs to the kitchen for the stove fire.
She suddenly missed Ye RongJun's lighter.
In the kitchen, her parents were busy cooking. Nan XiangWan opened an unused stove and tossed in the paper ball.
Meeting the flames, the paper immediately caught fire!
Boom!
Red flames lit up before Nan XiangWan's eyes, illuminating her determined gaze and calm face.
When Nan ChaoYang rushed over, his eyeballs nearly popped out in shock.
His sister had burned her admission letter?
Burned it!
The dry paper quickly turned to ashes. By now even if Nan ChaoYang reached to grab it, it would be too late. Only a pile of cinders remained.
Nan ChaoYang was truly dumbfounded by this sight, greatly shocking his fragile young heart.
But Nan XiangWan remained perfectly calm. She even took a rag and wiped the ashes clean.
After finishing up, she walked out of the kitchen and stretched lazily!
Nearby, even Nan Song was shocked speechless. When he turned around, he saw Nan XiangWan burning something. Considering Nan ChaoYang's reaction, Nan Song guessed it was the admission letter.
Yet after burning the letter, his daughter even had time to stretch lazily?
Xin Zi nudged him with her elbow: "What are you dazing out for? Wash the vegetables!"
Nan Song: "Oh, oh right!"
