Shi Xi breathed a sigh of relief when she learned that Tao Yuxuan and Leng Qiankun had prepared a surprise of fireworks.
I hope there will be more of these kinds of pleasant surprises that don't harm others or benefit oneself.
Please, let's hope there are fewer instances of characters recklessly provoking the female lead.
Just as Tao Yuxuan was on the phone, an older man in a suit walked in—no, a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man, dressed in a suit and wearing glasses, exuded an air of sophistication. He rushed in, and his female assistant had to jog to keep up.
"Huh? This person looks familiar. Is he from Fengcheng?"
"They seem to be from outside, here to celebrate Shi Xi's birthday?"
Upon hearing this conjecture, Shi Xi immediately stood up straight, her alarm bells blaring.
If you hear such a voice, it can't possibly be someone coming to wish her a happy birthday.
That's more like a slap in the face!
"Hey? Isn't this Principal Li?" Principal Feng's eyes lit up, and he strode forward, extending his hand in greeting, "Principal Li, what brings you to Fengcheng?"
“Xiao Feng,” the middle-aged man, referred to as Principal Li, smiled and said in a low voice, “I’m here to see someone.”
He Zhenming's eyes lit up. "That's President Li from Yenching University. Isn't he in Yenching? What's he doing here?"
Principal Feng is the principal of No. 1 High School, and he can send at least one or two students to Yenching University every year. Moreover, Principal Feng was originally a student at Yenching University, so he recognized Principal Li as soon as he saw him.
He Zhenming, who was guarding No. 13 Middle School, thought for a while before recognizing Principal Li.
But once he said that, everyone else knew the identity of this old man, or rather, this middle-aged man.
"So it's the president of Yenching University!"
"How did he end up here?"
Could it be—
“We’re definitely not here to celebrate Shi Xi’s birthday. The Shi family has absolutely no connection with the president of Peking University.” Shi Xi said to Tao Yuxuan, “My older brother didn’t go to Peking University back then.”
Tao Yuxuan: "...Why did you suddenly bring this up?"
"Oh, I was afraid you'd also say that the president of Yanda University came to celebrate my birthday," Shi Xi coughed.
She didn't want to be proven wrong again.
"But why didn't Shi Xu go to Peking University back then?" Tao Yuxuan asked. "Was it because he didn't like it?"
"Beijing is too far from Fengcheng, so I chose Haicheng University," Shi Xu explained, having appeared behind the two of them at some point.
"I didn't expect Brother Shi to be so attached to his home." Tao Yuxuan thought for a moment and said, "Hai University is indeed closer, and it's more convenient to go back to Fengcheng."
Shi Xu suggested, "Xi Xi, why don't you also apply to Ocean University? I'll have a professor I know mentor you."
Tao Yuxuan nodded, "Sure! Fengcheng is so close to Haicheng, you can come back often then."
"Let me think about it some more. Didn't Professor Yan just tell me to apply to her literature department?" Shi Xi smiled awkwardly.
She wants to go further!
However, if Ning Yu went to Yenching University, she went too—it coincided with a plot point.
If she goes to Haicheng University, she'll probably have to go back to Fengcheng every week—waiting to be tricked to death by Tao Yuxuan and Leng Qiankun.
Shi Xi wondered if she should look into universities abroad, or perhaps go to Harbin? Inner Mongolia?
Just as Shi Xi was pondering, Principal Li on the other side had already found Ning Yu and said in a strong voice, "Student Ning Yu!"
Ning Yu: "...What is it?"
"I'm here because I hope you'll apply to Yenching University." Principal Li waved his hand, and his female assistant behind him opened a box containing 200,000 yuan in cash. "This is your admission bonus, and there will be various subsidies afterward. As long as you agree to come to Yenching University, we can discuss any conditions!"
