Chapter 2

Pei WangLie and Mu XiaoAi spent the day together in bliss, luckily Pei WangLie hadn't done anything mischievous.

It was dinner time, Pei WangLie took Mu XiaoAi to his villa.

At the long dining table sat two people, Pei WangLie and Mu XiaoAi. The atmosphere was pleasant. As one spoke,

"How is America?", asked Pei WangLie. It had been 4 years since he saw Mu XiaoAi since she went abroad, he missed her a lot but kept himself from meeting him as she must've been busy.

"America...is a fun country, the people there are really open minded so it was really easy to make more friends and meet new people." Mu XiaoAi replied,she smiled as she thought about her friends and classmates.

Pei WangLie nodded in satisfaction. It's good that this girl had made new friends but he still needs to check if any of them have bad intentions or not.

"How is your company?", Mu XiaoAi asked. She was worried for Pei WangLie since he took over the Pei family's business when he was just 16! His father the former head had passed away making Pei WangLie his only son, the head now. She felt guilty for not being able to stay by his side as a true friend and comfort him.

"It's doing well. Why did you come to China without informing anyone?", asked Pei WangLie. He was quite worried when he heard her saying that she was in China, he was in a meeting when she called and rushed to meet her.

"There's a tournament going to take place here in China so I came to meet the Executives and Workers." Mu XiaoAi replied. Thinking about the tournament she sighed again.

The tournament was going to be one of the biggest events for the whole country or maybe even the world. It was to let students participate in different categories and win rewards, name and fame for their schools.

The tournament was going to take place a bit earlier than what the Schools had discussed, since the number of schools with bright students had increased with a sharp 16.05%, the tournament will be earlier so that the vacation of the students won't be disturbed.

A total of 176 schools will be participating, with different categories like Sports, taekwondo, Judo, Chess, Quizz, Arts & drama, Designing, etc. Different schools will be competing with each other till the final round where they'll play The Treasure Hunt. The school who wins the final round will be presented with prestige and fame.

The venue will keep changing according to the rounds. Different Cities, different countries as it is an international tournament.

For the past 36 years only one school has been winning continuously. The school is none other than the one Mu XiaoAi is attending. R.I academy( Royal Imperial academy)

As the President of the SUC(Student Union Council) its her duty to handle the important things related to the school.

The principal had called her and the other members of the SUC to inform about this problem. This was quite troubling for them as it was during their vacation and all of them were scattered around the world.

Now, she does not even have time to call them, even if she had called there was a very low chance for the other person to pick up since their schedules were now packed and everyone's extremely busy dealing with the new changes.

Thinking about this, she sighed for the third time.

Pei WangLie was looking at Mu XiaoAi for the whole time with amusement. He saw her changing her emotions every second from tiredness, anger, helplessness and others.. he smiled faintly. XiaoAi had really grown up in these 4 years and now she was able to handle important tasks and events.
