Lian Cheng was truly taken aback. "Dad, why don't you arrange for me to study abroad? Even if I'm just a pretty face, I should at least be given some 'gilding' (a metaphor for being talented but not exceptional)."
“Daughter, that’s not how it works. If you don’t want to, why would Dad force you? Your heart has never been in your studies.”
Lian Cheng took a sip of juice, then tapped his fingers on the table, as if he were contemplating some important life matter.
She rarely had such a moment of existential doubt.
People have already taken notice of her since she helped He Shuanglian revive Old Zhou.
Even if Qingyun has extraordinary abilities to get her into medical school, even if it's just nominal admission, it's still too risky to rely on connections. What if it gets exposed one day?
She was unwilling to take that risk.
There's only one way to solve this: "Dad, can you arrange for me to go to high school?"
Lian Qingyun almost spat out his juice. "What?"
"I want to go to high school, take the college entrance exam, and get a diploma." Lian Cheng calmly ate the pickled fish on the table.
Lian Qingyun looked at Lian Cheng with a new level of astonishment. If he hadn't recognized her face so well, he would have doubted that this daughter was a fake!
“Honey, tell Daddy why you suddenly changed your mind. Before, when Daddy tried so hard to get you to go to school, you just ignored me and didn’t take it seriously at all!”
Speaking of schooling, even though Lian Qingyun was wealthy, he still felt guilty towards his daughter.
Because of his relationship with Lian Cheng's mother, he didn't care enough for Lian Cheng in his early years. Later, he tried to make up for it, but unfortunately, Lian Cheng had already become somewhat rebellious and didn't like studying at all.
Anyway, she's his only daughter, so it wouldn't be a problem to raise her for the rest of her life. Even Qingyun didn't force him to.
But today, Lian Cheng actually brought it up on his own initiative.
"Dad, haven't you heard that a diploma is a stepping stone, and you can't get anywhere without one!"
"..." I almost believed your nonsense.
"Dad, shouldn't you be moved and happy for me?"
This is a soul-searching question for Lian Cheng. Can Lian Qingyun say no?
"Okay, then Dad will contact a foreign language middle school and arrange for you to attend."
Lian Cheng frowned slightly. "How about we change schools?"
She was a foreign language student before, but if she goes back to that school, there will inevitably be people who recognize her, and she'll have to deal with them, which will be too troublesome.
Moreover, boarding is mandatory at foreign language schools.
"Which school do you want to go to?" The Foreign Language School is a private school in Wucheng, but it has quite high requirements for students. Last time Lian Cheng was able to get in, it was because Lian Qingyun donated a building to secure it.
Wucheng's No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4 Middle Schools are all public schools. Among the private schools, the Foreign Language School and the Experimental Middle School are the most famous. Lian Cheng is a child star, so we can't be too casual about him.
"Under experimentation?"
"Okay, Dad will take care of it."
"Dad, I don't want to stay at the hotel."
"The experiment is a bit far from Qinglan Bay, so you can swipe your card to choose whichever house you like, and Hua Yinyin will take care of your daily life as usual."
"Thank you, Dad."
Lian Cheng even personally poured Lian Qingyun a full glass of juice.
Having a billionaire dad is great!
In short!
Dad is Dad, he can handle everything!
"Honey, you dropped out of high school in your second year. Do you want to repeat your second year?"
"No, senior year of high school!"
"But... there are only three months left until the college entrance exam in my senior year of high school."
"In the final year of high school."
"…………"
Why can't this child listen to reason?
Lian Cheng couldn't wait for the college entrance exam to start tomorrow!
