It was not because of other reasons. It was because Qiao Nan’s breasts were engorged.

In addition, her bra paddings were all wet and Qiao Nan had to change to a new pair.

While washing her hands, Qiao Nan also washed her face so that it would not look so red.

Judging from this, it was not so easy to devote wholeheartedly to her studies even when the three babies were not by her side, unless she could wean the babies off breast milk and take an injection to suppress lactation.

Otherwise, it was enough suffering for one if this situation was to occur every day.

After confirming that she did not have any other problems, Qiao Nan then had the courage to see the principal at his office.

The principal took a few more glances at Qiao Nan. He had already heard the news of the Zhai family having three new additions to the family. Precisely due to this, he was very curious how capable this young student of his was to be able to become a mother of three at such a young age.

If he had not received the news, he could not tell from Qiao Nan’s exterior appearance that this second-year student was not only married but also a mother. “Congratulations.” Qiao Nan had just given birth and also received the scholarship.

“Thank you, principal. I will definitely continue to work hard.” Qiao Nan only inferred one meaning from the principal’s congrats. She gave a shocking reply in an honest and silly manner.

The principal was first stunned, followed by laughter. “Certainly, you should continue to work hard in your studies. As for having children, no matter what, all of us have to enthusiastically support the country’s national planning policy. Don’t you think so?”

She had triplets in one birth. If Qiao Nan continued to work hard and gave birth again, wouldn’t she have at least four children then?

If Qiao Nan were to give birth a few more times, the Zhai family would be filled with people and also ‘trouble’.

Qiao Nan blushed. She then realized that the principal was not only congratulating her for receiving the scholarship but also for becoming a mother.

“Alright, you should go back. Work hard to catch up on the two months’ of classes that you have missed.” The principal did not intend to make things difficult for Qiao Nan. Although Qiao Nan had become a mother of three, the principal still felt that Qiao Nan was a child that required the care and attention of those who were older. “Qiao Nan, you have also received the school-based first-prize scholarship twice. Do you and your family have any plans for your future? Do you wish to study abroad?”

Regarding this, the principal had more confidence in Qiao Nan.

Not to mention that Qiao Nan’s in-law family was the Zhai family, Qiao Nan was outstanding enough to qualify for this opportunity based on her personal qualities alone.

“I’ve not thought about it.” Qiao Nan shook her head. She was only a second-year college student. Wouldn’t it be too soon to bring up the subject of studying abroad? “However, I feel that this possibility is not very high.”

“You… Your family doesn’t agree to it?”

“Not really. After all, my family’s situation is a little unique. Although I have not been given any restrictions, it is more inconvenient for me to do that when compared to other students. Furthermore, I can’t bear to leave my children, and vice versa.”

Children were the real reason why Qiao Nan could not leave.

When it was time for her to study abroad, the three babies would be starting to talk and learning to walk.

She was not willing to leave their side then.

“Principal, actually, my master seems to have some plans for my future.” Qiao Nan told the principal about this situation as she was aware that the principal was concerned about her. “Sometimes, what I think doesn’t count.”

Her master was old and his temper was strong and stubborn.

If her master already had plans for her, he would definitely kick up a fuss if she had other thoughts in mind.

On the day the three babies were born, it had slipped Qiao Nan’s mind to call her master as the delivery had come too unexpectedly. Her master had been angry with her as he did not manage to see the three babies just after they were born.

As a pregnant woman who was giving birth, Qiao Nan had no avenue to vent her grievances.

At that time, she was already dying from pain. How was she able to remember calling and asking her master to visit her at the hospital?

Moreover, her master was already so old. If she were to take a long time, perhaps the entire night, to deliver the babies, her master would need to stay awake for a night in the hospital, no?

If that was really the case, Qiao Nan would have to worry whether the day of her discharge would be the day of her master’s hospitalization.

She already had three children at home that she needed to coax. There was another elder now. Qiao Nan had to coax a total of four of them. She was the only one who knew in her heart how exhausted she was physically and mentally.

“Your master?” The principal asked, feeling puzzled. “Who is your master? What kind of master?” What kind of master in this world could decide a child’s future?

Until now, the principal was only aware that Qiao Nan was married into the Zhai family who had just been deployed back to the capital.

As to Qiao Nan’s maternal family and their situation, the principal did not know anything. Toward this ‘master’ that he suddenly heard of and who had the ability to plan the future for the daughter-in-law of the Zhai family, how could the principal not feel curious and concerned?

Qiao Nan was a good seedling of his Peking University. He could not watch helplessly as this ‘master’ suddenly appeared and ruined Qiao Nan’s life.

The principal had been planning and hoping that Qiao Nan would become the school’s honors graduate and a role model for the college’s freshmen to emulate in the future so that she could bring glory to Peking University.

With the presence of the Zhai family, the principal knew that the hope of realizing this wish was very great.

“My master is also in the capital now. He came back three months ago.” Qiao Nan appreciated the principal’s concern.

“Who is he? Is it convenient to say?” The principal was insistent in asking.

After thinking, Qiao Nan said, “My master is Lin Yuankang.” Those who should know were already aware of her master’s return to the capital. Those who were unaware would be able to find out by doing some simple checks.

There should not be any major issue to inform the principal of this.

“Lin Yuankang? The top veteran leader of the central government? The head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?!” How could the principal not hear of the famous Lin Yuankang before? How could he not know who Lin Yuankang was?

Yes. In front of Elder Lin, even the principal of Peking University had to bow his head and call him ‘elder’ respectfully.

“Yes.” Brother Zhai had already drilled into her these famous titles of her master.

However, when she saw the shock and doubt on the face of the principal of the Peking University when he said her master’s name, Qiao Nan exclaimed deeply once again that she was truly very lucky.

In her previous life, she had been trampled until she was at the bottom of the pit. In this life, the people whom she encountered could turn her into a tall and noble figure by just giving her a casual pull.

When she was studying in junior high school, she was still ignorant when Brother Zhai insisted on dragging her to acknowledge a master. She simply struck the top lottery prize then.

All this while, Qiao Nan dared not believe that such luck belonged to her, that she was that lucky girl.

After receiving Qiao Nan’s confirmation, the principal was very emotional. “Qiao Nan… you…” The principal did not know if he should say that Qiao Nan was too lucky or too blessed. When did Qiao Nan have the opportunity to know so many prominent figures and even received their affirmation?

Elder Lin was actually the master of his student!!!
