295 - I Don’t Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System

Chapter 295: The Wealthy School Su Wei Yi didn't remain puzzled for long about his younger sister's desire to attend high school. Soon enough, he understood why she had brought it up. It was all revealed when Su Lu Jun came back from playing chess at the entrance. Every three minutes, he would pour Su Qi a glass of water, and every five minutes, he would bring her a peeled apple. As the principal, Su Wei Yi was 100% sure that his uncle was utterly doting on his daughter. Luckily, Su Qi already had a good set of values. If she were spoiled from a young age, there would surely be problems. Seeing his sister's somewhat helpless look, Su Wei Yi also felt powerless. After all, when he was preparing for his college entrance exams, their mother had been excessively concerned as well. Sometimes, too much care can actually become quite a burden. It seemed like his sister wanted to escape and take a breather. However, as the principal, Su Wei Yi couldn't abuse his power by letting Su Qi join any class just because she wanted to relive her high school days. That wouldn't be fair to the other students. After pondering for a moment, he said somewhat regretfully, "Little Qi, even if you want to revisit high school, I can't just stick you into a class!" Upon hearing her brother's words, Su Qi widened her eyes, lamenting her poor communication skills. Although she liked studying, she would rather not face another college entrance exam. Then, Su Wei Yi watched his sister dart back to her room on her two legs. She returned with a massive book. Su Qi sat back next to her brother and handed him the stock trading manual, explaining, "Big brother, I don't want to attend classes. I just want a quiet place to read this. High schools have a strong learning atmosphere, and I can focus there." After her explanation, Su Wei Yi didn't agree right away. Instead, he turned his attention to the large book Su Qi handed over. He was somewhat surprised by it. As a principal, Su Wei Yi had a deep understanding of books. The size of a book plays an important role for students. This is why primary school textbooks differ significantly in size from high school ones. But this book far exceeded normal dimensions—more like a decorative item. When Su Wei Yi opened it, he found even more issues. The font was extremely dense and the content overwhelming—it was practically anti-human design. Which publisher produced this? Su Wei Yi couldn't help but wonder. He examined the book thoroughly but couldn't find any information about it. Just as he was about to ask where she got it, he noticed the hopeful look in Su Qi's large eyes. His uncle also was watching him like a hawk. He was right there, silently mouthing "No." Seeing this, Su Wei Yi felt helpless, unsure of how to respond to his sister. Thankfully, at that moment, Lu Ran's voice called out from the kitchen. "Wash up, it's time to eat!" Hearing this, everyone headed to the bathroom to wash their hands before sitting down to eat. The meal was sumptuous as usual, featuring cherry blossom pork, tomato scrambled eggs, boiled cabbage, and spicy boiled pork slices. Su Qi looked at her bowl, rapidly being filled with food by her parents, forming a small mountain, and thought even the body given by the system would get chubby at this rate. Su Wei Yi watched Su Qi staring at her overflowing bowl with a dumbfounded expression, realizing that his uncle and Aunt Lu's kindness might be causing Su Qi some trouble. Still, he wasn't about to rescue his sister from this situation, especially when his uncle guarded against him like a thief. He knew well enough that his uncle held grudges. Back in middle school, Su Wei Yi had once beaten Su Lu Jun at chess. Following that, throughout his military college years, the instructors treated him differently all because of something his uncle had said, leading to an eventful life. Being a military school graduate, Su Wei Yi had a similar speed when eating as Su Lu Jun. In less than three minutes, he had finished two bowls of rice and was ready to leave the table when his sister said: "Big brother, wait for me, I want to go to the school too." Concerned that Su Wei might flee, she rushed to his side without even wiping the food stains off her mouth. What more could Su Wei Yi say? Seeing his sister approaching earnestly, all he could do was agree to inquire with her doting parents. "Uncle, Aunt Lu, can I take Su Qi to see the school?" Su Wei Yi asked them. Seeing their daughter's eager face, both Su Lu Jun and Lu Ran thought for a moment before consenting, reminding him, "Make sure she's back by evening!" Finally, Su Qi let out a sigh of relief. She grabbed a napkin to wipe her mouth, picked up the stock trading manual with one hand, and eagerly exited her room on the seventh day since coming home. Watching his joyous sister getting into the car, Su Wei Yi still couldn't figure out why she was so keen on going back to a high school setting. Still, seeing her happiness, he decided not to ask. After all, her request was simple—just to find a room in a high school where she could read quietly. Even a security booth would do. Given such modest demands, it was easy for Su Wei Yi to agree. As Su Qi fastened her seatbelt, she looked excitedly at the greenery and trees lining the roads of Zhejiang City, each one passing by her view as they drove. For the first time, Su Qi was genuinely excited about being at a high school. It wasn't a weekend, and as a weekday at around one in the afternoon, the road was relatively unoccupied except for a few blue and yellow delivery scooters weaving through the streets. After a thirty-minute drive, they arrived at the destination: Syd International High School. It was Su Qi’s first visit to such a private school. Even before entering, there was an aura of sophistication and luxury. The school's architecture was nothing like her own high school, with its classical rectangular buildings. Instead, it featured European-styled gabled roofs, pristine white walls, and black tiles, all contributing to an elite aura reminiscent of prestigious schools. In fact, her guess wasn't far off. Syd International High School was indeed an elite institution. The tuition alone was 90,000 for one semester, which was enough to deter many families. Yet, in Zhejiang City, a major contributor to the GDP with countless wealthy individuals, 90,000 seemed significant, but many chose to send their children here for schooling. After all, attending such an international and open school could significantly broaden a child's horizons. Upon seeing Su Wei Yi’s car, the security guard, although noticing Su Qi, allowed them to pass due to the driver being the principal. The car slowly made its way into the campus, and Su Qi curiously observed her surroundings, finally understanding what it meant to have character. Leaving aside the variety of trees and the large, grass-covered soccer field, even the odd assortment of fitness facilities left Su Qi amazed. She even saw a male high school student playing the legendary sport of golf. Several foreign teachers, either black or white, passed by in a hurry, further piquing Su Qi’s curiosity. Though Su University had many international students, seeing foreign teachers was a first for her. Su Wei Yi parked the car in front of a grand building marked 'Teaching Building One', and got out. Seeing this, Su Qi quickly followed, like a little shadow, clutching the large stock trading manual. As she walked, she couldn't help but check through the system's backend. The boost in learning efficiency recorded thanks to her current uniform set was an astounding 3.2. Su Qi’s eyes lit up, feeling proud of her brother’s management of the school. Even during final exams at Su University, there wasn't such an intense academic atmosphere like the one at this high school! Seeing her little sister's admiring gaze, Su Wei Yi felt slightly gratified. Trailing behind her brother, Su Qi’s eyes widened as they entered the teaching building. It was break time, and many male and female students were exiting their classrooms in uniforms. What caught Su Qi's attention was that the girls' uniforms were a combination of skirts and shirts. The boys wore shirts paired with shorts, and each grade seemed to have different colors. Walking alongside her brother, Su Qi quickly made an important discovery. First-year girls wore blue and white striped shirts with knee-length skirts adorned with a white stripe. Second-year girls donned black knee-length skirts with white shirts that had black collars, paired with a red ladies’ necktie. Third-year girls wore white collared black shirts with a red bow on the chest. Moreover, their skirts were also black, featuring a dark red stripe, adding a playful touch. Isn't this the kind of attire worn by high school fleets in youth-themed dramas? Su Qi couldn't help but marvel at how well these high school girls pulled off this elegant look. There was something truly impressive about it. At that moment, she heard the system's voice in her mind: "Host, the people here are really wealthy. I just checked the value of their clothes; each uniform costs over 1,500." Upon hearing the system's response, Su Qi gasped. They're really that affluent? A single uniform costs 1,500. What kind of extravagantly wealthy school is her big brother running?! --- Friendly Reminder: If you think this book is great and want to find it easily later, remember to add it to your bookshelf!
