Campus Ace Girl-Chapter 746 - 747: Chance Encounter with Chu Ci at the Airport

Gu Anxi was driving, with Wang Qin sitting beside her. Wang Keru and Chu Yan were in the back seat. Wang Keru kept giving instructions, sounding as if she were quite experienced in life.

Gu Anxi half-listened as she drove. However, Wang Qin, beside her, would laugh from time to time, prompting Gu Anxi to tease, "Yan Yan, don’t believe everything my mom says. If she had to fend for herself, she’d probably wear mismatched socks every day."

Chu Yan looked at Wang Keru, who, feeling a bit embarrassed, coughed lightly and asked, "Anxi, am I really like that?"

Gu Anxi just laughed and stopped teasing her. So, Wang Keru carried on with her instructions. Whenever she spoke, Chu Yan listened attentively and obediently.

Wang Keru was completely satisfied.

Gu Anxi continued to drive. About an hour later, she parked the car in the Beicheng Airport parking lot.

After parking, Gu Anxi opened the trunk and took out the luggage: two very large suitcases that Wang Keru had packed. Chu Yan and Gu Anxi both felt it was rather excessive, but Wang Keru insisted that England was relatively cold and they needed to bring more clothes.

Gu Anxi and Wang Qin each took a suitcase. They had only walked a few steps when Chu Yan suddenly stopped.

Across from them stood Chu Ci, Chu Changhe and his wife, and a pretty girl beside them, all about to get into a car.

Clearly, they had also seen Chu Yan’s group. Mrs. Chu couldn’t stand the sight of Chu Yan; just looking at her gave her a headache, so she and the pretty girl got into the car first.

Chu Ci gazed at Chu Yan for a long time but didn’t approach. Instead, he opened the car door and got in. Chu Changhe, however, slowly walked over and asked Chu Yan, "Where are you going?"

As he spoke, his gaze fell upon the two large suitcases. It looks like she’s going abroad, he thought. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Chu Yan licked her lips and said softly, "I’m going to study abroad."

Chu Changhe frowned. "Why the sudden decision to study abroad? Weren’t you doing well at Beicheng University? Or are you unhappy there? Should I have a word with Principal Shen for you?"

After all, he had raised her. Now that she was suddenly going abroad, he felt very reluctant to let her go.

Chu Yan lowered her gaze. "That’s not it. I want to go abroad myself. I’ve always wanted to."

Chu Changhe fell silent for a moment; he roughly understood what she meant.

Previously, because of Chu Ci, she had followed him far and wide for his filming projects. Now, likely free from that constraint, she naturally chose to pursue her own aspirations.

Chu Changhe couldn’t force her. Besides, he no longer had the right to. The Gu family had taken good care of her, and she had looked well recently, with fair and delicate skin. So, he relented. "Alright. Give us a call to let us know you’ve arrived safely when you get there."

Even as he said it, he knew in his heart that Chu Yan wouldn’t call. She was determined to cut ties with this family. It wasn’t that she was heartless, but rather that she didn’t want to hurt Chu Ci’s mother.

Or perhaps, she didn’t consider Chu Ci’s mother her own mother, but she still felt a debt of gratitude for being raised by them.

This child was truly good; she had never blamed Chu Ci. Despite past grievances, truth be told, Chu Yan had not wronged the Chu Family in the slightest. On the contrary, it was the Chu Family who had obliterated any bond of kindness that had existed.

His heart heavy, Chu Changhe exchanged a few more words with her before returning to his car. It was an RV with four seats in the back. As soon as he got in, it was Mrs. Chu who spoke, while Chu Ci remained silent.

"Is Yan Yan leaving?" Mrs. Chu asked.

Although Chu Ci appeared calm and composed, Chu Changhe could feel the tension radiating from his son beside him. So, he replied quietly, "Yes, she’s going to study abroad. She might be gone for several years."
