Chapter 585 Still Haven't Decided (1)
"Hey, are you going to say yes or no?"
"Xu Chusheng?"
Hey! What are you spacing out for?
Bai Chao's vision blurred for a moment before he heard the voice coming from ahead.
The person in front of him, having received no response for a long time, became visibly annoyed: "Xu Chusheng!"
Bai Chao raised his eyes before the other side completely lost their temper.
"Young Master Xu."
Xu Zhexuan was taken aback, then looked at Bai Chao with a puzzled expression: "Xu Chusheng?"
"..."
Bai Chao paused for a moment, then suddenly shrank his neck and lowered his eyes, as if he dared not look directly at the other person.
"Young Master Xu..."
Xu Zhexuan then realized that he understood, and quickly put the strange feeling he had just experienced behind him.
"Tsk, are you spacing out?"
"no no……"
Bai Chao nervously rubbed the corner of his clothes: "You want me to carry you to class..."
"Correct."
Xu Zhexuan remembered his important business.
"I'll give you a full ten silver dollars. Your mother only gets three silver dollars a month working as a nanny in my house, right?"
"Such a good deal, you won't find another one like it!"
Bai Chao stammered, "But I...I...I dare not..."
Xu Zhexuan didn't take it seriously: "What do you mean I wouldn't dare? It's just a class."
“But…” Bai Chao looked troubled, “If I go, I’ll be discovered very quickly, won’t I?”
“It’s a closed training program over there, everyone is a stranger, nobody knows you.”
"But someone might know Young Master Xu..."
Xu Zhexuan, however, was very confident: "My mother forced me into the training class. The students here are from different circles, so no one will find out."
“Xu Chusheng, I only gave you this opportunity to take an etiquette class because our surnames sound similar.”
"Otherwise, given your status, you'll never learn the etiquette of high society in your entire life."
"If you're getting such a good deal, plus a lot of money, don't be ungrateful." Xu Zhexuan's tone carried a hint of threat.
Bai Chao shuddered, lowering his head even further: "Okay..."
Xu Zhexuan's mood brightened, and he happily patted Bai Chao on the shoulder.
"Then it's settled. You'll take my class and you're not allowed to tell anyone about this."
"Yes……"
Xu Zhexuan resolved a troublesome matter and found the timid Bai Chao a bit more agreeable. He complained to Bai Chao's face, "My mom is really something. What a stupid etiquette class. We have to attend classes there for three months and then take an exam before we can leave."
“I can’t stand being locked up and disciplined every day.”
"Thank goodness you're here, Xu Chusheng."
"Young Master Xu... if you're not going to class, where are you going? The butler..."
"I?"
Xu Zhexuan put his hands on his hips, threw his head back and laughed loudly: "Of course I'm going out to enjoy myself!"
"On the day of registration, we can take the opportunity to switch seats. My parents will be out discussing business that day, and the old housekeeper's eyesight is failing, so he definitely won't notice."
"Whoever wants to join this class can join, I'm not going."
Xu Zhexuan never wanted to go to an etiquette class.
But it's not an ordinary etiquette class.
Instead, it is an elite training program exclusively for the upper class.
This elite training program is a small-class, closed-door program that only admits a select few children of the wealthy and powerful. It focuses on training students in social etiquette, and all the children of the wealthy and powerful who enter the program must study for three months before they can graduate.
Xu Zhexuan was spoiled at home and became unruly, hating being restrained and disciplined.
Hearing that he would be imprisoned for three months, he felt like the sky had fallen.
However, the Xu family, who have always doted on Xu Zhexuan, insisted that he must go this time.
Xu Zhexuan's resistance was futile. When he turned around and saw that the nanny's son, Xu Chusheng, was about the same height and age as himself, he had a sudden idea and came up with the plan to take the class for him.
Xu Zhexuan still remembers to tell her, "Tell me what you've learned, and I'll just have to appease my mom."
"Yes……"
"By the way, do your best on the graduation exam for that etiquette class, or you might not be able to graduate and my parents will find out."
Bai Chao nodded.
"Then I'm leaving. I need to report for duty the day after tomorrow. Find an excuse to stay out these next two days and tell the housekeeper you're not coming back."
Xu Zhexuan didn't wait for Bai Chao's reply, waved his hand and left.
He simply gave the order; how Bai Chao found an excuse or where he stayed was none of his business.
