Chapter 160

Friday arrived in the blink of an eye. The relationship between Yun Jinghe and Fu You'an was developing at lightning speed. Their daily communication was effortless; Yun Jinghe would invite her to dine with him, and Fu You'an would invite him out for horseback riding. As they grew increasingly familiar, they were often seen together, though most people thought nothing of it. Cooperation and socializing among the elite was hardly a strange occurrence. The academy was a microcosm of society; students didn't just come here to study, but more importantly, to forge connections that would facilitate their future careers in inheriting family businesses. A common saying held true: having connections while being a top student was a springboard, but being a top student without them was merely a garnish. Academic life was not the sum total of one's resume.
