Chapter 52
Li Cheng smiled at Wei Ge and approached Wei Ge with a mysterious look on his face.
"If I said I failed the course on purpose just to accompany you, would you believe me?"
"I don't believe it."
"I've been exposed. I really did fail the exam." Li Cheng scratched his head, not trying to hide it at all. "It was mainly because Dalinzi and I didn't play as well together as you. He got nervous when a group of people cheated, and he almost got kicked out by the teacher."
It really puts Zhang Zhilin in a difficult position.
This guy has never done anything illegal in his life. Now he is asked to help Li Cheng cheat. I'm afraid he couldn't sleep the night before.
"What about Xu Zhou?"
Xu Zhou shouldn't be the kind of person who would be nervous about cheating.
"He himself struggled, barely getting through the exams by copying his. If I didn't read it correctly at one glance, I would still fail."
Li Cheng shrugged. Xu Zhou sometimes studied well and sometimes studied very poorly. It seemed that it all depended on his condition. He was quite biased in his studies.
He is smart, but his memory is not good and he doesn't work hard enough.
But Zhang Zhilin is the kind of person who has been law-abiding all his life, not smart but extremely hardworking. Because he has worked hard to the top, he does everything beyond ordinary people.
Although studying is based on IQ, college is not that strict. As long as you work hard, you will definitely do well.
After all, they are Luzhou University Academy of Fine Arts, not Peking University or Tsinghua University.
The teacher was teaching in the front, and Li Cheng was chatting about gossip with Wei Ge below.
I strongly suspect that this man failed the exam just to affect Wei Ge's studies.
"I'm telling you, Xu Zhou seems to have gone crazy these past two days, working late into the night, sewing his tattered embroidery. My eyes are a little blurry. The other day, when I stayed up late to go to the bathroom, he asked me why I had two heads. I was so scared I thought it was haunted."
"And Dalinzi, he's always not in the dormitory and never plays with me. I'm really impressed. These two are both busy. Busy, it's better to be busy, it's more fulfilling."
"Luckily, I have you. Let's have lunch and dinner together from now on. I feel like I'm that empty-nest elderly person who desperately needs some love and care."
Wei Ge looked hesitant and turned to look at Li Cheng.
"It's OK at noon, but not so good at night. I have to go home and eat with my uncle."
A world where only Li Cheng is hurt is achieved.
"Alright." Li Cheng groaned while lying on the table. "It's true that he's older, so I have to give in to him!"
"Li Cheng!"
The teacher on the podium knocked on the table and looked at Li Cheng who was lying on the ground wailing. Li Cheng was so scared that he jumped up.
"You were there last year, and you're here this year too. If you continue to cause trouble in class, you'll fail again! It's fine if you fail, but don't drag other students down with you."
Wei Ge moved his book to the left.
Li Cheng moved his body to the left.
I feel like I'm being entangled by something.

Campus life is going on as normal. In the forum, apart from gossip, complaints about which cafeteria has the worst food, and student social activities, the most popular topic is the competition held by ARKI at the end of last semester.
Who is the final winner?
The official website also advertised aggressively, with a three-day countdown, and ten anonymous works were posted online for all netizens to vote on.
Guess which one will be this year's gold medal winner.
Wei Ge was reading the comments while frantically campaigning for votes for his own work.
In the end, he actually won.
However, online preferences do not represent the judges' preferences, so it is hard to say whether I can win first place.
It’s not completely hard to say.
Wei Ge took the phone and put it under Xing Zhao's nose.
"Which of these works do you think will win the championship?"
Openly cheating.
But it’s okay, he was asking, not ordering.
If you really want to do something, Wei Ge will just put the phone on his neck.
"Set this work as the champion, immediately."
Xing Zhao glanced down. In order to avoid suspicion, he did not participate in judging too many works. After all, he wanted to see whether his judgment of Wei Ge was filtered.
Wei Ge’s goodness is something that everyone can appreciate, not something that is forced upon them by him.
"I like this one very much, but whether it wins the championship depends on the judges' opinions. It seems that the judges of this competition are very professional and fair."
I felt like I was paving the way for my future self, telling Wei Ge that I was not involved and did not do anything wrong.
Xing Zhao was also a little scared. He was afraid that his identity would put pressure on Wei Ge and make him have wild thoughts.
He was afraid that he would feel that everything he had was given to him by Xing Zhao because of his status.
Xing Zhao wanted Wei Ge to know that his glory came only from himself and had nothing to do with anyone else.
Wei Ge really understood what Xing Zhao meant.
Professional and fair.
These four words mean that nothing has been done.
In other words, Xing Zhao did not give Wei Ge any backdoor access because of his identity.
That's it.
Wei Ge has no idea about his own talent. He feels that he will definitely not get the award without a backdoor. It seems that he can only wait for Uncle Xing to reveal his identity and ask him to use the backdoor to get an internship in the company.
It was precisely because of this idea that Wei Ge didn't care at all on the day the results were announced.
At nine o'clock on Sunday morning, Wei Ge was still asleep, but his phone already showed N missed calls.
But Wei Ge has a good habit. He must keep silent on weekends. No one can wake him up even if the king comes.
Outside the door, Xing Zhao and Lao Qin were squatting on the left and right, holding two big flowers, thinking that after Wei Ge saw the good news of winning the award, they would rush out of the room and give him a big surprise.
There was no movement in the room until the two people's legs were numb from squatting.
The two men looked at each other. Lao Qin was old and could not squat on one leg, so he switched his legs countless times.
Wei Ge still didn't move.
"What's going on? Young Master's phone is disconnected from the internet?"
Old Qin asked Xing Zhao in a low voice, looking up.
If he didn't come out, it wouldn't be a surprise for Wei Ge, so Lao Qin stood up deliberately and bowed to Wei Ge with dizziness.
"I'll go in and take a look."
Xing Zhao stood up, carefully opened the door, and saw Wei Ge sleeping soundly on the bed.
The child was sleeping soundly.
Wei Ge seemed to be completely unconcerned about such a big thing today and was actually able to sleep.
Xing Zhao glanced at Wei Ge, not wanting to disturb him, and quietly retreated from the room and closed the door.
"Let's go downstairs first and celebrate after the kid wakes up."
Old Qin nodded and glanced at Wei Ge who was sleeping soundly.
I wonder how happy this child will be when he wakes up. After all, he saw how hard Wei Ge worked day and night before the competition.
The moment Lao Qin learned that Wei Ge had won the award, he was so excited that tears came to his eyes.
The young master's efforts were not in vain. He believed that Mr. Xing would never tamper with such an important competition.
Because Mr. Xing always unconditionally believes in Wei Ge's ability and will always give everyone fair and just opportunities.
Lao Qin and Xing Zhao were arranging things in the living room. Shan Jiekou called Wei Ge but no one answered, so he called Xing Zhao directly.
"What's going on? Why didn't Xiao Weige answer my call? My mentor is like a father, but now that he's won an award, he's become aloof?"
Yamajie said a lot of nonsense.
"You're not the father of anyone. When did you become his teacher?" Xing Zhao retorted, "The child hasn't woken up yet and doesn't know he's won the award. I didn't mean to ignore your message."
Based on Xing Zhao's understanding of Wei Ge, when he received such congratulatory messages, he would definitely patiently reply and express his gratitude one by one.
Being polite is one of Wei Ge’s characteristics.
"Then when are we going to celebrate? I'll come to your house to find you."
As Yamajie was speaking, the sound of leather shoes could be heard, as if he was getting ready to go out.
Xing Zhao raised his head and glanced at Wei Ge upstairs. "I'll tell you when he wakes up. Don't disturb him when you come."
"Don't spoil the kids too much. You two are both too patient. If it were me, I would have set an alarm and posted on WeChat Moments in advance."
The artistic level is superb, but it is pretentious.
This is an evaluation of Yamasukeguchi that couldn't be more accurate.
About half an hour later, there was a rustling sound from upstairs. Xing Zhao and Lao Qin looked at each other, and then a scream came from Wei Ge's room.
The two men subconsciously picked up the large spray guns they had prepared earlier and sprayed them forward when Wei Ge ran down from upstairs.
Colorful petals fell on Wei Ge, and Wei Ge threw herself into Xing Zhao's arms, wrapping her whole body around Xing Zhao.
"Uncle Xing, I won first prize! First prize!"
Xing Zhao reached out his hand, stroked Wei Ge's soft hair with his fingers, smiling and speaking in a doting voice.
"I know. I've always said you're the best." Xing Zhao pulled out his phone. "Yamashiko and Zeyu both said they want to come celebrate with you. If you don't want to, I'll refuse them."
"I won the award and I have to treat everyone to a meal. So, I'll invite my roommates over too, and we'll all come together! It's my treat!"
Wei Ge jumped off Xing Zhao and ran back to his room to send a message to his roommate, but suddenly stopped while walking.
He hasn't found the person Ji Zeyu asked him to find before.
What if the other party is really Zhang Zhilin, wouldn’t the meeting between these two people at this moment be a stab in the back to Dalinzi?
"Uncle Xing, how about we have a meal together first, and then I'll have dinner alone with my roommates. My roommates are quite shy, and I'm afraid they'll be embarrassed to see their elders."
Xing Zhao thought about it, but couldn't figure out which of his roommates was more shy.
However, he did not have a particularly deep impression of those people, and he could not remember their specific appearance.
But what Wei Ge said definitely makes sense.
"Okay, I'll listen to you then."
For several days, Wei Ge kept receiving congratulations from everyone and had several meals with different people.
But they all listened to Uncle Xing and drank soda and regular drinks.
Xing Zhao held a meeting on the top floor of the company to arrange for the top scorers to enter the company for internships.
Looking at the information of several classmates, Xing Zhao suddenly thought of the blogger who had previously spoken out for the company online.
He had been following him for a long time as [Bai Ye] and even spent a lot of money on him.
It's because of his artistic talent.
However, he did not dig deep into the identity behind the blogger, and was not sure which student of Luda Academy of Fine Arts this person was.
Apart from Wei Ge, Xing Zhao really didn't see any other entries with a similar style to his.
Did he change his style?
"Go check this ID and retrieve the entries. I'd like to give him a spot in this internship. Although he didn't stand out, I've seen his previous works and they fit our company's positioning."
Xing Zhao handed the account to the staff member responsible for allocating quotas. The staff member took a look and nodded, then retrieved the person's information from the database.
The staff member was stunned for a moment and handed the information and the entry to Xing Zhao.
"Mr. Xing, there's no need to increase the quota. This user is the first place winner of this competition, Wei Ge."
