Su Yang turned his gaze to Li Wanxiong, who immediately shrugged and said, "Don't look at me, even though Old Hu is the richest man in Nanluo City, he can't get Xiexie a spot in the academy."
Of course, Su Yang knew that although Hu Xiexie's father was very wealthy, his influence was just average. Without a family background or a strong network, he was nothing more than a rich man, completely incomparable to the major families, and naturally, he had no way to get Hu Xiexie into the advanced class.
"What I want to ask is," Su Yang said, "why does Hu Xiexie want to study here?"
"It was her own decision to study here!" Li Wanxiong said with a feeling of helplessness. "Actually, her dad has advised her several times, but she wouldn't listen—she insisted on coming here."
"But why?" asked Su Yang, surprised.
"Because she wants to become stronger!" said Li Wanxiong.
"Become stronger? What does that have to do with going to school?" Su Yang wondered.
