After sending off Tao Fen and the others, Tang Xiaobai returned to Bright Moon Building, called for Cheng Zi, and asked, "Why aren't you going to the academy anymore?"
Since she returned to the capital, she hadn't seen Cheng Zi go to school.
Initially, Tang Xiaobai thought Cheng Zi had taken leave to pick her up, and later, being busy, she didn't notice Cheng Zi wasn't attending school.
Later, she thought maybe the family was cutting ties with the academy, and Cheng Zi couldn't go to school as a result.
It wasn't until today that she learned Cheng Zi had dropped out for over half a year.
When she asked now, Cheng Zi's face showed a hint of panic, and she lowered her head, saying, "I... I'm not young anymore, I can't keep studying forever..."
"Why can't you—" Tang Xiaobai stopped mid-sentence, reconsidering, and asked, "If you don't study, what do you want to do?"
