The next day, Wu Jinyan arrived at the university, still thinking about what her daughter had said the night before.
'I haven't seen him in years. I really don't know him at all. I just took him at his word, not bothering to verify anything before getting the official process started. The more I think about it, the more reckless I feel I've been.'
'No, I have to confirm Xu Yun actually has the means before I can move forward with this.'
With that thought, she immediately headed for the dean's office to ask him to hold off on reporting it to the university administration.
But by the time she reached the dean's office, it was already too late.
The dean, thinking she had come to hurry him along, smiled and told her that he had already spoken with the university leadership about it first thing that morning.
The leadership had said it was a wonderful thing and gave their full support, telling them to proceed without delay.
Wu Jinyan was completely stunned.
