Teacher Wang's smile froze on her face. She suspiciously opened the large file folder and glanced inside. It contained Xue Rui's acceptance letter and various identification documents...
'Xue Rui is a new student at our school too?'
Teacher Wang's expression was a mix of laughter and tears. She really didn't know what to say. Xue Rui was even younger than Lin Ruoxi—what kind of guardian was this?
She turned to look at Lin Ruoxi again. Seeing that look of trust and dependence in her eyes now, she figured they were probably a couple.
Xue Rui, looking both humble and serious, was still saying, "The tuition fee doesn't need to be waived."
Gritting her teeth, she opened the administrative portal on her phone to check. Xue Rui's score wasn't low, but it was still a far cry from qualifying for a tuition waiver.
"It's not easy for the university either," Xue Rui said earnestly. "Public universities are all subsidized by the state. If one can afford it, it's better not to get a waiver."
