"Lili has a good eye. If you all don't work hard, the Song Family might just surpass our Xi Family in a couple of years."
Old Sir Xi chuckled as he praised his granddaughter, making his niece, Xi Siya, very jealous.
She was eighteen and had just finished her college entrance exams. Surpassing Xi Li had always been her driving motivation.
Xi Li's father had used a guaranteed admission slot to send her to a university in the Imperial City. This year, the Xi Family's slot had gone to Siya's own second older brother.
That meant she had to rely on her own merits to get into a university in the Imperial City. But Heaven rewards the diligent, and she finally managed to get into Imperial University.
She had chosen an arts major, so the required score was relatively low, but she had made the cutoff all the same.
Xi Siya spent the entire summer at home practicing the piano and dancing, completely oblivious to the world outside.
