Chapter 938 - 937: Mysterious Su Ping
Zhao Xuefen was also completely baffled; she couldn’t figure out what the situation was.
"I asked him, and he told me to have you apply for this school, and not to go to any other," Zhao Xuefen said, "Ah, I can’t understand it either. You know, just a while ago, the presidents of those three universities in Capital City personally came over to invite you to enroll. What a great opportunity that was, and why bother with any exam? But no, he insists on sending you to this Qinghe Academy, forgoing such fantastic schools for Qinghe of all places?"
Su Yang, head bowed, fell silent as she pondered; indeed, that was the case. The presidents of the three major schools had personally invited him and Su Ping knew about it. But Su Ping refused to let him go to those schools and instead wanted him to attend Qinghe Academy, which was truly odd. Could there be something wrong with Qinghe Academy?
Upon further reflection on Destiny’s Tome, Su Yang found his father even more mysterious. Perhaps, there was a reason for this insistence.
"Well, since Dad instructed it, I’ll apply for this school," Su Yang nodded and said, "By the way, did Dad mention anything else?"
"No, that was it," Zhao Xuefen replied with a look of complaint, "Your dad seemed to be in a hurry. When he called me, the first thing he said was to keep quiet and listen to him. After that, he told me these things and when I was about to ask him when he would come back, he hung up. When I tried calling back, I couldn’t get through at all. Hey, your dad has never stepped out in his whole life, and now that he has, he doesn’t even return home. What on earth is he up to?"
Su Yang wanted to know what was going on even more than Zhao Xuefen did; the mysteries surrounding Su Ping were only increasing. It seemed that after he entered the Earthly Immortal Realm, there might be no telling how much he would learn.
"By the way, Auntie Zhao..." Su Yang suddenly said, "How come I’ve never heard my dad mention where our hometown actually is? I’ve only met your relatives—the Su Family’s relatives, not even one. Why is that?"
"I don’t know either," Zhao Xuefen shrugged and said, "When I met your dad, he was renting a house near our village, toiling away for a living, and I had no idea where he came from. I asked him a few times, and he said there was an epidemic at home and everyone had died, leaving only you two."
