Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Gu Lin knew very well why Gu Qingxue wanted him to stay, but he still put on a stubborn face and sat there without moving.

Seeing Gu Lin like this, Gu Qingxue could not help but rub the space between her brows. “Lil’ in, come to mother.”

Gu Lin stood up obediently and walked in front of Gu Qingxue. He still did not want to look up at her.

Gu Qingxue knew that Gu Lin was stubborn. She reached out and pulled Gu Lin over, then simply pulled him into her arms. “Tell mother, why don’t you want to go?”

“There’s no ‘why’ Gu Lin said in a muffled tone. “Mother, I just don’t want to go.”

Gu Qingxue saw that Gu Lin’s eyes kept darting around when he spoke, and she knew that this little thing wasn’t telling the truth. “Lil’ lin, what is it that you can’t even tell mother?”

Gu Yu’s expression became even more troubled. He raised his eyes and looked at Gu Qingxue with his long and narrow eyes. “Mother, it’s really nothing. I just don’t want to go.”

“Mother doesn’t believe it. Mother knows your talent. Your goduncle thinks highly of you, so you should seize this opportunity. Are you worried that mother won’t take you back? Mother promises you that I will definitely bring you back to Dafu Village if I have the chance in the future.” Gu Qingxue knew that Gu Lin liked the Dafe Village, so she took the initiative to persuade him.

Gu Lin’s eyes moved. He leaned against Gu Qingxues chest and finally told her the truth, “Mother, I’m very scared.”

Gu Lin had always been the strongest of the three children. As the eldest brother, he rarely showed such a fragile side.

Gu Qingxues heart ached even more. She quietly hugged Gu Lin and gently advised, “You don’t have to be afraid of anything. With mother here, mother will protect you.”

“I’ve asked around,” Gu Lin said softly. “The Royal Academy is a place only for the royal family. However, we’re not relatives of the royal family, nor are we the descendants of some prominent official. If we go to that kind of place, we’ll inevitably be excluded.”

In the beginning, he had really wanted to go to the Royal Academy to study. That was until the day when the thirteenth princess made things difficult for them.

At that time, when he saw his younger brother and sister shivering in the cold wind with him, he realized that many things were not as simple as he thought.

In front of a person of noble status like the princess, they had no right to speak at all. They could only be bullied.

He did not care about himself. He just wanted to study.

However, he could not bear to see his younger brother and sister suffer with him.

He understood Dumby and Lingbao. As long as he did not go, his younger brother and sister would not go either.

Therefore, even though he was filled with regret, he was willing to give up for the sake of his younger brother and sister.

Gu Qingxue had never expected that Gu Lin was unwilling to go to school because of this.

Gu Lin was so young, but he already knew what was called status and what was called the law of the jungle.

“Lil’ Lin, you’re a big boy, you don’t have to worry about this. Mother hopes that you can fight for what you want and not compromise. Cowering was indeed useful, but what you lost was far more than what you gained. Mother only asks you, not considering other people, not considering other things, do you want to go or not?” Gu Qingxue looked at Gu Lin and asked seriously.

Gu Lin felt so wronged that he buried his head into Gu Qingxue’s arms.
