Chapter 32: Spent Half of the Down Payment for a House



Realizing that she might have said too much, Wen Ying refused to speak again after accepting the praise from the big guys, and sat in her seat pretending to be well-behaved.

After dinner, Boss Qin and a few others wanted to play cards, and of course Deng Shangwei had to join them.

Wen Ying started walking around the villa by herself.

Before dinner, Boss Qin's driver went to the school to pick up his daughter Qin Jiao.

Qin Jiao is different from the chubby Wen Ying. The seventeen-year-old girl has grown taller, with long arms and legs, a straight back, and a height of about 1.7 meters. She looks like a high-end version of Boss Qin. Her temperament is as cold as the moon, not the crescent moon with pointed ends at the beginning of the month, but more like the full moon on the fifteenth day of the lunar month. There is a bit of gentleness in her coldness, which does not make people feel daunted.

Wen Ying's scalp exploded.

She should have thought of it earlier!

Boss Qin’s daughter is the same person as Senior Qin, the school’s celebrity in the previous life!

Qin Jiao is two grades older than Wen Ying. When Wen Ying entered high school, Qin Jiao was already in her third year.

There are many female fans of Xie Qian and many male fans of Qin Jiao in the school. Wen Ying, the ugly duckling, first met Xie Qian after her rebirth, and met Qin Jiao within two days.

What is this unfolding?

If 16-year-old Wen Ying suddenly met an outstanding senior like Qin Jiao, she would feel ashamed of herself.

31-year-old Wen Ying, introduced by Boss Qin to Qin Jiao, nodded vigorously with a thick face: "Uncle Qin, I will definitely get closer to Sister Qin Jiao!"

Qin Jiao was a little confused. She thought she was just being picked up by her father for a meal. This had happened before.

Unexpectedly, after arriving, Boss Qin said he wanted to introduce a friend to Qin Jiao.

No one knows a father better than his daughter. If her father takes the initiative to introduce her to a friend, it must be that this "friend" has something that he values. Boss Qin often tells Qin Jiao that people must keep learning in order to make progress. Instead of secretly envying someone's strengths and making enemies with outstanding people, it is better to take the initiative to get close to them, become friends with them, and learn from their strengths.

So, what are the advantages of this girl named Wen Ying?

Qin Jiao looked at her for a long time, ignoring her ordinary clothes and round figure. Qin Jiao had not yet discovered Wen Ying's advantages... No, it's not that she has no advantages at all. Wen Ying looked at her with sparkling eyes, and Qin Jiao did not see any flattery in her eyes. It seemed more like she really liked her, with a little admiration and a little closeness.

Hey, is my charm so great already? Even the girl I met for the first time likes me so much?

Qin Jiao felt that she had found Wen Ying's strengths - Wen Ying was warm and enthusiastic towards others, the kind of enthusiasm that was sincere and not annoying.

Qin Jiao couldn't help but smile, thinking that Wen Ying's face was round and quite cute.

People's first impression is very important.

When Wen Ying was working in Shanghai in her previous life, clients doubted her professionalism because of her youth. At the beginning, Wen Ying could not receive any important commissions. Even if the law firm recommended her to big clients, as soon as they saw her, they would bluntly ask whether she could be replaced with a more experienced male lawyer.

Later, He Zhen taught her that being young was not a problem. She had to first cultivate the style of an elite and have the confidence that no one else could do it better than her. Even if the client's first impression of her was not trust, it would not be suspicion... Oh, I thought of He Zhen again.

Wen Ying doesn't want to dwell too much on her past life, but He Zhen really played an important role in her becoming what she is today.

In order to avoid thinking about He Zhen, Wen Ying took the initiative to sit next to Qin Jiao. After Wen Ying said that she wanted to apply to the high school Qin Jiao attended, Qin Jiao analyzed the situation for her in a more rational way:

"Our school has independent enrollment quotas every year. For someone like you whose student registration isn't in downtown Chengdu, the required score last year was 540. This year, the difference shouldn't be too big. Are you confident?"

No, this year it is not 540 points, this year it is 546 points. Wen Ying remembers this score line for independent enrollment clearly.

There was no way she couldn't be deeply impressed. This was something she had experienced once in her previous life.

In Wen Ying's previous life, in several mock exams before the high school entrance examination, her total score was around 560 points, of which English alone scored more than 130 points. Even though the questions were a little difficult, she still scored 120 points.

As the high school entrance examination approached, the learning level of each subject was almost fixed. This was why Wen Ying had the confidence to take the exam to study in the provincial key school with Qin Jiao in her previous life.

Can she pass the exam?

If Wen Ying had not suffered a Waterloo in the English test for the senior high school entrance examination, even if she had only scored 110 points, she would have barely reached the independent enrollment line for the provincial key university.

Unfortunately, she had a fever in the examination room and only scored 91 points... Wen Ying remembered that her total score in the high school entrance examination in her previous life was 521 points.

With 521 points, Wen Ying could choose any high school in the small city where her family lived, but it was still 25 points away from the admission score for the provincial key schools.

How did Wen Ying finally get into a provincial key school? She was just one point away from getting into a key school, and her family paid 25,000 yuan for "school construction fees." This doesn't even include the favors that Chen Li and Deng Shangwei used to get in!

In this life, Wen Ying is no longer confused. Many things that she did not understand in her previous life are now revealed to her.

In their previous life, Chen Li and Deng Shangwei must have used Teacher Lin's connections to send Wen Ying to the provincial key school. Wen Ying estimated that, including the "school construction fees" that were clearly stated, her parents paid at least 50,000 or 60,000 yuan.

For a moment, Wen Ying was a little dazed.

She has always blamed her parents for being domineering and controlling, and for repeatedly bringing up her failure in the high school entrance exam, which has left her with a psychological trauma. Now when she thinks about the fact that she had to spend 50,000 or 60,000 yuan more than others to go to high school in her previous life, she feels a little upset.

In 2004, prices and wages were relatively low. Chen Ru bought a 100-square-meter apartment in the residential complex recommended by Boss Wang at 3,700 yuan per square meter. With a 30% down payment, the apartment would only cost 110,000 yuan. To get Wen Ying into a provincial key university, Chen Ru and Wen Dongrong spent half of that down payment...

Qin Jiao saw Wen Ying lowering her head and not saying anything, and thought that Wen Ying was scared by this score.

Qin Jiao felt that 540 points was easy to get, because she had good educational resources since she was young. Considering that Wen Ying received her education in a county-level city under Rongcheng, Qin Jiao did not refuse to eat porridge. Instead, she whispered to Wen Ying, "Don't worry if you are still short of the score. Ask Uncle Deng to think of a way, or ask my dad for help. I think my dad likes you very much and will definitely not refuse."

This is a tip for Wen Ying: if you need to use your connections, you should.

Wen Ying felt a little warm.

No wonder so many people liked Qin Jiao in her previous life.

However, Wen Ying also saw the difference between rich children and girls from well-off families like her. When Wen Ying was only 16 years old, she was embarrassed to even mention money, let alone instruct others to use the back door.

Qin Jiao said it very frankly.

Boss Qin worked hard and gave his children a different starting point. In Qin Jiao's opinion, it would be foolish to have connections but not use them.
