"A coastal city in the south?" Ye Linchen looked at Gu Jingran with a puzzled expression.
“Yes, for example, Haicheng University and Bincheng University are both nationally renowned universities, and their finance departments are also very famous.” Gu Jingran continued, “These two cities are developing very rapidly now, and they are at the forefront of the country in all aspects. There are many opportunities, and there is a shortage of financial talents. You can easily find a satisfactory job after graduation.”
"Haicheng, Bincheng..."
Ye Linchen silently murmured the two names.
Seeing that she seemed interested, Gu Jingran explained, "I've been to these two cities on business trips before, and I had a very good impression of them."
"Haicheng is full of vitality and opportunities, with various emerging industries springing up everywhere, and entrepreneurial opportunities abound."
"Bincheng boasts a developed economy, a rich cultural heritage, and a comfortable lifestyle, making it suitable for those seeking stability and a high quality of life."
"The climate in both of these cities is better than in the north, and the winters aren't too cold. They're also about the same distance from Jiangcheng as they are from Beijing."
"Moreover, it's more open-minded and more inclusive; you might want to consider it."
Ye Linchen suddenly realized what was happening.
Yes, she had a narrow view before, only thinking that the north was far away. In fact, there are also cities in the south that are far away from Jiangcheng.
"Thank you, Brother Gu, for your words that have awakened me from my dream."
Ye Linchen looked at Gu Jingran gratefully.
"It's alright, I just wanted you to have more options," Gu Jingran said with a smile.
After discussing it for a while, the two decided to list Haicheng University and Bincheng University's finance departments as their second and third choices.
My second and third choices were universities in northern China and universities in southern coastal cities.
The problem of choosing a school that had been giving Ye Linchen a headache was solved just like that.
"Brother Gu, thank you so much. If you hadn't reminded me, I really wouldn't have considered southern cities. Now I have so many more options," Ye Linchen said sincerely. "You really helped me a lot at a crucial moment in my life."
Gu Jingran smiled and waved his hand: "Don't mention it, it was just a small favor. If you have any questions in the future, feel free to ask me. I will definitely help if I can."
As he spoke, he reminded Ye Linchen in a slightly joking tone.
"Next, you'd better work harder and try to get good grades so you can treat me to a big meal. That's the real deal!"
"No problem, I promise I'll treat you to a big meal." Ye Linchen readily agreed.
The admission scores for the finance departments of these three schools were not as high as those of Jiangcheng University, so she was still quite confident.
After Gu Jingran finished speaking, he worried that Ye Linchen might be under pressure, so he thought for a moment and added, "The college entrance exam is very important, but there's no need to be too anxious. Just do your best. Even if you don't get into your ideal school, it doesn't mean you won't have another chance. Life is a long journey."
"I see."
Ye Linchen lowered his head, his eyes suddenly feeling a little sore.
It's so nice to have a friend who cares about her so much.
She blinked hard, forcing back her tears, and gave Gu Jingran a bright smile: "Thank you so much, Brother Gu."
After submitting his college application, Ye Linchen felt relieved of a major concern and devoted himself even more to his studies.
Meng Zihan has also filled out her college application.
Unlike Ye Linchen, she filled out all her applications for universities in Jiangcheng City and surrounding cities.
She's not stupid. Why would she leave Jiangcheng, a perfectly good place, to adapt to a new place and start all over again?
She's not brainless; why would she abandon her peaceful life to go out and cause trouble?
Moreover, her filling out the college application was just for show, a formality.
The steel mill's sponsored student training program was signed with Jiangcheng University.
This year's major is excellent; it's automation. After graduation, I can go directly back to work in the automation department of a steel plant.
That's a research institution, it sounds prestigious, and the lowest professional title there is assistant engineer!
She only needs to work for a year to be promoted to assistant engineer, and a few years later she can be promoted to engineer. She will be a skilled professional and will be in high demand wherever she goes.
Ye Linchen worked so hard to get into university, does he deserve such good treatment?
Meng Xueyun was very curious about where Ye Linchen had filled in his college application. That evening, Meng Zihan was doing her homework in her room when Meng Xueyun came in.
"Xiaohan, do you know which college your cousin applied to?"
Meng Zihan certainly knew.
The students already knew exactly which universities the high-achieving students had applied to.
This can be used as a reference.
"They are all very far from our city. My first choice is Beijing University, my second choice is Haicheng University, and my third choice is Bincheng University."
Meng Xueyun knew that these three cities were indeed very far apart, requiring several hours to fly between them.
Taking the train would take several more days!
She immediately became unhappy.
That brat, she's got wings now, is she planning to fly to the ends of the earth?
"Why did she fill in such a far distance! What is she trying to do!"
Meng Zihan shrugged: "I don't know, I guess she thinks our temple is too small to accommodate such a big Buddha like her."
She was very supportive of Ye Linchen's application.
It would be best if she got into university, left Jiangcheng, and never came back for the rest of her life, so she wouldn't get in my way.
Meng Xueyun was so angry that her chest ached.
That brat! We finally raised her to adulthood, and it was just about time to reap the rewards, but she ran off so far away. No matter how long my reach is, I can't reach her!
She stood there stunned for a moment, then turned and left the house, returning to her own room.
Ye Zhenghua was studying a safety briefing when he saw her come in and asked her curiously.
Why are you so angry? Who made you upset?
"Isn't she your good daughter? She filled out all her college applications with things that are way too far away. Is she trying to distance herself from us?"
Ye Zhenghua stared at her suspiciously: "Didn't you bring her delicious food every day, and your relationship had improved? Why is she still like this?"
Meng Xueyun paused.
Oh no, we almost gave ourselves away!
She stiffened her neck, putting on an even angrier look.
"That's why they're called ungrateful wretches! They ate my food and drank my water, used me, and then wanted to kick me aside!"
Ye Zhenghua snorted coldly: "I told you long ago, she's a heartless person. No matter how good you are to her, it won't make a difference. Let her leave if she wants; just pretend she never had this daughter."
Meng Xueyun disagreed: "Why should we? If she really leaves, what will we get from her earnings?"
"Did I raise her with all my hard work and care, only to have it all go to waste?"
"No, we have to stop her. We need to find a way to make her change her mind."
Ye Zhenghua thought about it and realized that this made sense.
That brat is ruthless; she might just achieve great things.
As long as she remains in Jiangcheng, the bigger her achievements, the more she will care about her reputation.
In the future, when you ask her for favors, she won't dare refuse.
He thought for a moment and gave Meng Xueyun some advice.
"With her terrible temper, she definitely won't change her college application. Try talking to her homeroom teacher; maybe they can help."
Meng Xueyun's eyes lit up.
Yes, Teacher Ma really dislikes Ye Linchen.
If I ask her for help, she will definitely help me!
