Chapter 71: You damn green tea! I'm coming for you!!

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Pei Yanzhi and Pei Yutang's eyes.

The meaning of this statement is quite clear.

Xu Yihuan not only received invitations, but some of them were VIP invitations that granted direct access to the back office.

So it's not that they can't get in, it's that they're just being delusional.

Upon realizing this, Pei Yutang's expression showed a barely perceptible moment of embarrassment.

In the end, Pei Yanzhi was the first to react.

He smiled and made way for Xu Yihuan.

"I didn't expect you and Old Master Meng to be so close. I thought you had simply left the invitation at home."

"Since Elder Meng is looking for you, you should go quickly."

Xu Yihuan nodded, responded, and left first.

Meng Heye lagged behind, noticing the reactions of the two people.

He gave the two of them a cryptic look.

He then followed in Xu Yihuan's footsteps.

He knew it was the Pei family again.

Pei Yutang's expression turned even more unpleasant upon receiving Meng Heye's gaze.

What kind of look is that from Meng Heye?! It's like they're the ones who prevented Xu Yihuan from getting in!

Xu Yihuan followed Meng Heye to the other side.

At that moment, Old Master Meng was chatting with someone.

Upon seeing Xu Yihuan approach, he waved to her.

"Huanhuan, come here quickly!"

Only after Xu Yihuan approached did she introduce him to the person.

"This is Xu Yihuan, whom I told you about, who was recommended to the Department of Foreign Languages ​​at Peking University."

"Huanhuan, this is Professor Tang Wanhua from the English Department of Peking University. You can get to know her."

"You're going to study at Peking University, right? Maybe she'll even teach your major courses."

Tang Wanhua was wearing a neat white suit, her short hair made her look very capable, and a diamond earring on her ear sparkled. Standing next to her, you could almost smell the fragrance.

"Hello, Xu Yihuan." Tang Wanhua extended her hand.

Xu Yihuan quickly bowed slightly and shook hands with her: "Hello, teacher, please give me your guidance."

Tang Wanhua seemed very interested in Xu Yihuan.

He looked Xu Yihuan up and down a few times.

Suddenly, he asked, "Were you admitted to Kyoto University through a competition?"

Xu Yihuan nodded: "Yes, the NEPCS competition."

Tang Wanhua seemed to remember something, and looked at Xu Yihuan with a half-smile: "Then do you know where your guaranteed admission spot came from?"

Xu Yihuan was surprised that Tang Wanhua would ask such a question, so she thought about it for a moment.

Suddenly, I remembered what Lin Zhi had told me.

To be honest, this guaranteed admission spot was because of your gold medal in the English competition. There happened to be a professor from Peking University on the judging panel, and he personally secured a spot for you.

Xu Yihuan's eyes darted around, then she looked up sharply at Tang Wanhua: "It's you?!"

Tang Wanhua took two steps forward, smiled, patted Xu Yihuan's shoulder, and whispered in her ear, "Work hard, baby, don't let Auntie's efforts go to waste."

After saying that, Tang Wanhua turned and went to the front hall.

Meng Jian stood quietly to the side like a quail until Tang Wanhua left, then he finally spoke up and asked,

"You two know each other?"

Xu Yihuan's eyes welled up with tears of excitement.

It was her!

She gave herself a guaranteed admission spot!

Without this guaranteed admission spot, the best I could hope for would be to repeat a year and try again...

Xu Yihuan opened her mouth.

Finally, he managed to utter only three words, trembling: "Yes, my mentor."

Meng Jian was all smiles.

"That would be great."

"Let's go to the front hall together; the banquet is about to begin."

He introduced Tang Wanhua to Xu Yihuan to thank her for introducing him to Sheng Yuhuai and Jiang Jinnan, but he didn't expect that she already knew them.

Meng Jian shook his head, sighed, and walked forward.

Xu Yihuan didn't move, standing there in a daze, lost in thought.

Meng Heye happened to be passing by.

"Xu Yihuan! What are you doing? The banquet in the front hall is about to begin! Come on, come on, let's go see the excitement."

Meng Heye's tone was a bit too familiar.

They had only met briefly two or three times.

Xu Yihuan felt a little helpless.

In fact, Meng Heye was also quite helpless.

Someone recently returned to the capital on business and insisted that I keep an eye on Xu Yihuan.

Xu Yihuan is such a grown woman, what can he possibly think?

Can he still stop Xu Yihuan from socializing and talking to others?

Besides, does having a formal title even matter?!

The thought had barely formed in his mind when a figure jogged towards him from afar.

"Sister Yihuan, what are you doing here? I've been looking for you for so long."

Jiang Jinnan smiled innocently, a dimple peeking out from the corner of her lips, making her look rather cute.

Xu Yihuan gave him a strange look and asked as she walked, "What do you want with me?"

Jiang Jinnan lowered his eyes slightly, his gaze flickering: "It's nothing, it's just that you're the only person I know here, and I'm a little scared..."

Meng Heye: ... He retracted his previous thought.

Isn't it just that you like Xu Yihuan? Is that such a difficult thing?

If he can't stand Xu Yihuan, does he think he can't stand others?!

You damn green tea b*tch! I'm fucking here!!

Today's apprenticeship banquet is a little different from the past.

This was Meng Jian's last time accepting a disciple, and only at the very end did he find out who he had accepted.

It's like receiving an award; those of you who received invitations are all finalists.

Whoever is being taught by Meng Jian is a great blessing.

Three main tables: one for colleagues, one for apprentices, and one for relatives and friends.

For some unknown reason, Xu Yihuan also successfully joined the table of relatives and friends.

The person sitting next to me is Jiang Jinnan.

Jiang Jinnan leaned against Xu Yihuan, with only a hand's width between them on their chairs.

If he had the chance, he would have loved to sit on Xu Yihuan's lap.

Seeing this scene, Meng Heye was so angry that his teeth itched.

No wonder Tan Zhixu asked him to keep an eye on it; there really is such a thing.

"Jiang Jinnan, come here for a moment."

Table signs were placed on the main table.

Meng Heye took Jiang Jinnan's name tag and walked to another table.

They placed him directly among Meng Jian's group of elderly disciples, and then removed his original name card from the table.

"Come on, Jiang Jinnan, please sit down. These are some of my grandfather's apprentices. Since you're also an art student, you'll definitely have something to talk about."

Jiang Jinnan was unwilling to stand up, so Meng Heye pulled him up with great force.

"Go quickly, the seniors are all waiting for you."

Jiang Jinnan could only leave, turning back every few steps.

Jiang Jinnan went to another table.

Meng Heye clapped his hands, chuckled twice, and placed his name tag on the spot where Jiang Jinnan had been sitting.

You little brat, you think you can mess with him?

After spending some time with Jiang Jinnan, Xu Yihuan felt that Jiang Jinnan was quite nice.

At least he has never done anything wrong.

So when Meng Heye sat down, Xu Yihuan asked him, "What's wrong? Why did you get rid of him?"

"I'm helping him. It's such a rare opportunity for him to see so many seniors gathered together," Meng Heye said confidently.

Xu Yihuan nodded, Meng Heye was actually right.

Opportunities are hard to come by.

Yes, that's good.

Xu Yihuan withdrew her gaze.

After seeing that Xu Yihuan wasn't looking in his direction, Jiang Jinnan's face fell completely.

I'm unhappy!

Let whoever wants this lousy food eat it!
