The Queen Of Everything
112. You Can't Go to the Capital
“Not ... I didn't call you.”
Su Cha's father thought of something and became nervous, “Did you receive a call from me?”
He seemed to be looking for confirmation from her. Su Cha replied quietly, “Uh-huh.”
His father gasps, which reveals who called him.
“Good.”
His father took a deep breath and tried to calm down, “Maybe I called you wrong.”
He pretended not to be ready. But Su Cha said, “Did he know that father has given me money?”
He knows it. Otherwise, his father would not have said it.
Suddenly, his father fell silent. His silence proved Su Cha's conjecture.
“It's okay.”
Her father sounds bitter and awkward, “She doesn't know how much.”
In other words, he knew his father had given him money.
He probably called her to ask that.
In Su Cha's memories, her stepmother had always been harsh on her. He was about to ask Su Cha how much he had taken from his father.
It might not matter if it was only a few hundred. But if he finds out that it is five thousand, then there will be a great quarrel.
Fortunately, Su Cha did not receive his call.
Su Cha thought. Now that his stepmother already knew about the money, he would fight with his father. Su Cha did not want to trouble his father, so he said, “I will pay him” soon
He had planned to return his ten thousand fathers after he had earned enough money. Now that his stepmother found out, she would use Zhai Yao's money to pay him back.
Her father sounds tired and embarrassed, “Daughter does not owe her father. You should take the national college entrance exam immediately and go to college. These five thousand will be your travel expenses and become part of your living expenses. Have you thought about which college you would choose?”
Su Cha was silent for a moment and said, “A university in the Imperial Capital.”
But he did not say Imperial Capital University.
It was impossible for him to go to the Imperial Capital University in his father's eyes, so he didn't want to say it prevented causing trouble.
“Capital Empire?”
His father sounded anxious, “Why did you choose the Imperial capital? You can't! That's too far!”
Su Cha finds his father strange instantly, “True? Not far.”
Dad's nervous.
He was not nervous about the distance, but he was nervous when he heard the Imperial Capital.
Why would he be nervous about the Imperial Capital?
“Too far. You can't go, you can't, Su Cha!“
In the end, his father became very firm and violent, which was rare. “You are too young to go to the Imperial Capital alone. I won't allow it. There are several colleges in Yonggu City. Or you can choose any city in Jiang’an Province. The Imperial Capital is too far away. Everything is expensive there. You can't live easily there.”
Yonggu City belongs to Jiang Province’an.
His dad sounds weird. He rejected the idea that Su Cha would go to the Imperial Capital. But Su Cha did not know why, but he did not rush to answer.
He was silent for a long time before he asked gently, “Well father, do you think there is any difference for me to stay in Yonggu City or the Imperial Capital alone?”
He did not blame or question her. He just said it easily. But it shocked his father, as if the question weighed thousands of pounds.
