Chapter 92 - College Entrance Examination
Chapter 92 - College Entrance Examination
After the reunion, although they still didn't have time to spend the night together, Ning Fei and Duan Yunhong's text messages and phone calls returned to normal.
There were no more accidents on Lin Shengjia's side. He has been fully immersed in preparing for the exam, and the Lin family is fully supporting him, so no one in the family has the time to spare to take care of other things. Since Lin Shengjia was obedient, Ning Fei could save himself a lot of trouble and effort. In fact, Ning Fei felt that Lin Shengjia’s performance had reached his limit. If he wanted to have any "extraordinary performance" or "miracle", he could only rely on Ning Fei to predict the trend. However, even Ning Fei could not guarantee 100% that he had guessed the direction correctly. So the teacher and students can only guess and train at the same time, and then see how their luck is in the end.
But before the college entrance examination actually came, something went wrong with Ji Xingzhe.
One month before the exam, Ji Xingzhe suddenly started asking for leave.
Although he had asked for sick leave, the teachers were discussing privately that the Ji family must have hired a famous teacher to help him review at home, so he simply did not come to school. Anyway, it’s the last month and the school won’t teach any new knowledge. Ning Fei thought so at first, but when he talked about this with Duan Yunhong casually, Duan Yunhong gave another answer.
He said, "Oh, he really is on sick leave."
"...Hmm?" Ning Fei became interested. "What disease?"
"I have a mental illness." Duan Yunhong replied calmly, "Urticaria, insomnia, mental confusion, the psychiatrist said it was caused by excessive study pressure."
"They even hired a psychiatrist. The Ji family is really fashionable." Ning Fei joked, "And then what? Did they really let him rest completely because of this?"
"How is it possible? The Ji family will not allow their children to avoid the college entrance examination. Especially since Ji Xingzhe's good grades have long been publicized by them, how could Ji Zhenwei let Ji Xingzhe not take the college entrance examination?" Duan Yunhong replied, "Even the psychologist was invited by Ji Yuechi. Ji Zhenwei and Tang Huilan don't have such an idea. Moreover, they also hired a teacher for Ji Xingzhe to review at home, so even if Ji Xingzhe doesn't go to school, he can't escape reviewing."
"I told you, even if he takes a leave, he still has to study and take the college entrance examination. Who made him have such good grades? He also refused the opportunity to go abroad. Ji Zhenwei is a man of great reputation and will not let him go." Ning Fei paused and asked, "But is it really because of the pressure of studying? Is it because you told him before, 'We'll talk about it after the college entrance examination', and he is worrying about it? Can't he think of any other way, and think that as long as he doesn't take the college entrance examination, you won't mess with him?"
"I said 'you', not just him." Duan Yunhong smiled, revealing a certain coldness, "Do I need to call him and tell him, 'It's no use for you to avoid the college entrance examination. I will still talk to your father'?"
"No, I'm afraid he'll come to the school and stab someone." Ning Fei also smiled silently, "By the way, Ji Yuechi is messing around in Shencheng, doesn't Ji Zhenwei know about it?"
"He doesn't dare to come, so Ji Yuechi is naturally lawless. Do you want me to break this window paper?"
"Don't do that yet. If you expose it, Ji Zhenwei will call him back to South City, giving Ji Xingzhe another helper." Ning Fei said faintly, "Being isolated and helpless is the best situation for Ji Xingzhe."
Duan Yunhong commented: "You are cruel to travelers, and even more ruthless to those who hinder you from completing your mission."
Ning Fei did not deny it, but replied: "You don't seem to have the right to criticize me. You use the means of controlling other people's life and death to change their fate, so you can't be considered a good person."
The two people's comments on each other were not very favorable, but neither of them refuted, and they hung up the phone with their own thoughts.
***
Life went on as usual, and finally, the day of the college entrance examination arrived.
The Lin family made all the necessary preparations, but in the end it was Duan Yunhong's car that was responsible for taking Lin Shengjia to the exam. The whole family went to check out the location in advance and confirmed over and over again what they needed to bring for the college entrance examination. The Lin couple even took two days off to accompany them throughout the exam. Coincidentally, Lin Shengjia and Ji Xingzhe were drawn to take the exam in the same classroom. This made Ning Fei repeatedly remind Lin Shengjia to come out immediately after the exam and stay away from Ji Xingzhe.
Fortunately, Ji Xingzhe did not do anything during this period. He didn't dare either. The college entrance examination is a major event that the whole country pays attention to. If he commits suicide in the college entrance examination hall, Ji Zhenwei will directly rain down his wrath on him without waiting for Duan Yunhong to do anything - after all, bringing shame to the whole country is tantamount to the end of his life for Ji Zhenwei.
I didn’t have time to rest after the college entrance exam and just estimated my scores. These days, it is still very risky to fill in the application form first and then get the scores. So Ning Fei privately checked the predicted scores with Lin Shengjia again, and then recommended several alternative universities to the Lin family, and finally decided on the target university.
After going to the school to report his application, Lin Shengjia felt a little weak when he came out. He grabbed Ning Fei's wrist, as if looking for someone to lean on, and sighed, "I actually applied to that prestigious school. Oh my god, I never thought about this in my previous life!"
"If you don't fill in that university, I really don't know what I wasted almost two years with you on." Ning Fei was calm as usual, "The universities I applied to for you are all in the south, and your first choice is in the city next to Shenzhen, which will be convenient for you to develop your career in the future. It's a good hand, whether you will ruin it in the future depends on you."
Although Lin Shengjia keeps talking about "business world" all day long, he actually doesn't know how to manage anything. He felt a little scalp-tingling after hearing what Ning Fei said. He quickly asked, "Didn't you say you would take me to Shencheng? When are we going?"
Ning Fei glanced at him: "Going to Shencheng is not for fun."
Lin Shengjia said: "Of course I know. I was a worker in my previous life, and I know that learning in the workplace is completely different from learning in school. I will listen to General Duan."
Ning Fei sneered: "It's rare that you actually want to learn on your own initiative."
"...After all, it involves money, uh, my future, so of course I have to pay attention to it." Lin Shengjia was a little embarrassed, "So, you will really take me with you, right?"
"Wait until your grades come out, then go. Then come back to get your admission letter, and come back again before school starts to prepare for the start of school." Ning Fei said, "Go back tonight and tell your parents about this."
Lin Shengjia was shocked: "So many round trips, the airfare is so expensive! My family will definitely hesitate... You and Mr. Duan will help me pay for it, right?"
Ning Fei: "Use your salary as an intern assistant to offset it."
Lin Shengjia: "...So I'm going to be a free laborer?"
Ning Fei: "Mr. Duan's super master class also includes food, accommodation, and round-trip air tickets. You are so lucky that you don't have to pay. What else do you want?"
"..." Lin Shengjia had no way to argue, so he could only say, "Okay, then let's go back to my house for dinner now? Just you, or Mr. Duan?"
"You can go now, but isn't it time for you to let go?" Ning Fei lowered his eyes and glanced at the other person's hand that was holding his wrist, "Do you think the gossip about us in school is not chaotic enough?"
"What can that nonsense do to me? Besides, the exams are over. Besides, even if there is something between us, I won't lose anything..." Lin Shengjia teased as he let go of him. After all, he is an adult at heart and can speak nonsense. However, as he was enjoying his talk, his voice gradually died down. Because the two men had already walked to the side of the car, the back seat window was actually lowered, and it was obvious at a glance that something unusual was going on.
Ning Fei bent down and poked his head out, and sure enough, "Hey, President Duan is back? He came to pick up our prospective college students in person?"
Duan Yunhong looked indifferent: "Come up and close the window quickly, aren't you too hot?"
"Haha, you should learn the shorts and slippers style of Shenzhen. It's relaxing and cool." Ning Fei didn't say "It wasn't me who opened the window". He just got into the car with a smile and sat in the back seat with Duan Yunhong. After saying hello, Lin Shengjia got on the passenger seat very obediently and reduced his presence.
The car started moving. Ning Fei glanced at Duan Yunhong's cold face and started chatting casually: "We're going to the Lin family for dinner tonight. Do you remember?"
Duan Yunhong: “Yeah.”
Ning Fei added: "It's up to you to convince his parents. I can't interrupt."
Duan Yunhong: “Yeah.”
Two consecutive cold "hmm"s finally made Ning Fei realize that this person seemed to be really unhappy.
——Sure enough, you saw the scene of Lin Shengjia and I walking over here holding hands just now, right?
——I feel so wronged.
But Ning Fei didn't think there was anything to explain. He just silently stretched out his hand, grabbed the man's big palm, dragged him to the middle seat, and gently scratched the other's palm with his fingertips.
Duan Yunhong looked out the window without turning his head back, but he clenched his hand back and held down the rebellious hand.

There is no need to elaborate on the persuasion process, everything went smoothly.
Soon, the college entrance examination results came out. Lin Shengjia went to school to get his report card. When he received the note from his smiling head teacher, he felt very complicated. When he saw the results at a glance, he was naturally very excited. But in the excitement, another thought came to my mind: "As expected."
His total score was only 4 points different from what Ning Fei had estimated after further consideration.
Ning Fei's style of taking every step carefully and predicting what will inevitably happen gave Lin Shengjia an inexplicable sense of security. As a result, when he got his grades, he had only one thought about college admission in his mind: it was a sure thing.
Sure enough, Lin Shengjia took the report card to show Ning Fei, and Ning Fei's reaction was also mediocre: "Well, the estimate is quite accurate, the school should be fine."
Lin Shengjia said: "Don't you have any other reaction? I'm a super counterattack, aren't you excited?"
"Why are you so excited? Wasn't it me who made your progress step by step and witnessed the whole process?" Ning Fei asked back, "Besides, do you think this is the end? This is just the beginning. Greater challenges are waiting for you. Pack your bags and go to Shencheng to work for free."
Lin Shengjia: "...Thank you for your cold shoulder. I'm not excited anymore."
In short, the Lin family gathered together and had a happy meal, and Lin Shengjia followed Duan Yunhong to Shenzhen and became Duan Yunhong's "little tail". He was not yet capable of being Duan Yunhong's secretary, and he would not be able to understand the company's annual report and plans. Therefore, he could only work as a handyman first, trying to keep up with Duan Yunhong's pace and learn more in daily life. Lin Shengjia felt that Duan Yunhong was like his immediate boss in his previous life. Just a glance at him made him feel nervous. Duan Yunhong told him to go east, but he didn't even dare to look west.
Of course, it’s not necessarily that Ning Fei has completely PUA’d him. It has become a habit for him to listen to these two people.
Duan Yunhong did not hide the truth from Ji Yuechi and brought Lin Shengjia with him when he went to Ji's company. When Ji Yuechi saw Lin Shengjia in person for the first time, his first reaction was "He really looks like my dad", and his second reaction was "Why is he here?"
Duan Yunhong replied succinctly: "I saw his ability and brought him here to train him."
Ji Yuechi didn't care: "He's just a student who just graduated from high school. Even if his grades are good, it doesn't mean anything. You might as well take care of Xiaozhe instead of taking care of him, uncle."
"I gave Xiaozhe a chance, but he didn't come. Why don't you go and ask him the reason?" Duan Yunhong smiled, "Besides, the people I brought with me will be used in my own company in the future, and will not be arranged in the Ji family's industry."
"Uncle, your own company is not small. This kid is just a nobody..." Ji Yuechi still spoke with disdain, and turned to talk about his brother, "But it's true, Xiaozhe said he didn't want to come no matter what, and he didn't even want to take advantage of this holiday to travel. He is too homesick. He is so timid, I guess he is not suitable to run a company in the future. Let's see what he wants to do first."
——He just wanted to be a parasitic plant with rotten roots in the Ji family.
Duan Yunhong responded in his heart but said nothing on his face. It was just right that Ji Yuechi didn't take Lin Shengjia seriously, so he didn't have to help Lin Shengjia deal with Ji Yuechi. If he couldn't even protect this little bastard, Duan Yunhong himself would find it ridiculous, not to mention how Ning Fei would pressure him.
Oh, by the way, Ji Xingzhe’s results were also okay. His score was a dozen points less than expected, but it was also a normal performance. On the day when the Ji family found out the results, he saw that the Ji couple seemed satisfied, but he was still nervously waiting for Duan Yunhong to do something wrong. But Duan Yunhong, who was far away in Shenzhen, did nothing and was so quiet that he seemed to have forgotten about it. Only Ji Yuechi called him to congratulate him and said that he would bring gifts back to help celebrate after he was accepted.
Finally, the admission letters arrived at the school one after another, and Ji Xingzhe also received his own.
——He was admitted to a pretty good university in South City, which was exactly what Ji Xingzhe wanted.
The next day, just as Tang Huilan and Ji Zhenwei were discussing how grand the banquet should be to celebrate, Duan Yunhong returned to South City.
