Chen Jing hesitated for a moment, "Will this work? What if Ye Zhizhou really gets into K University..."
Su Rui pouted, "K University isn't that easy to get into. Have you forgotten that your No. 3 High School only gets a maximum of three students each year?"
After thinking about it carefully, Chen Jing realized that it was indeed the case. K University had always only admitted the top students from each school. Although Ye Zhizhou's grades were good, they were not that good. Compared with the top students in the school, there was still a certain gap.
If she does that, Ye Zhizhou will fail the exam and will definitely be ridiculed by everyone.
"Okay, whatever you say."
With a smile on her face, Su Rui affectionately linked arms with Chen Jing, "Jingjing, believe me, this time we will definitely ruin Ye Zhizhou's reputation."
With Su Rui's comfort, Chen Jing felt much better.
In the evening, the afterglow of the sun illuminated the entire school, giving it a unique glow.
Ye Zhizhou walked out of the school, followed by Qin Xuan.
"Qin Jiajiao, I would like to ask for leave today."
Qin Xuan said expressionlessly, "No."
Ye Zhizhou: ...
She knew Qin Xuan wouldn't agree, so it seems she'll have to use some other tactics next time.
He obediently took Qin Xuan home, and as soon as they arrived, they smelled the aroma of food.
"Aunt Zhang, I've made so many dishes today, is anyone interested in coming over?"
Normally, Zhang Ma only cooks four or five dishes, just enough for the family. Ye Huaibin only comes home occasionally, and she cooks too much for them to finish, but today she cooked seven or eight dishes.
"The master said he wanted to invite an old friend to dinner, so he prepared extra food."
Zhang Ma had just come out of the kitchen, with a slight sheen of sweat on her forehead.
Ye Zhizhou has been home for so long, but she has never seen her father bring anyone else back. She is quite curious about who it could be.
She and Qin Xuan stayed in the study upstairs for half an hour until Ye Huaibin came home before they came down.
"Old Yu, this is my daughter, Ye Zhizhou."
As soon as Ye Huaibin entered, he introduced Ye Zhizhou to the visitors, as if afraid that Yu Yanhong wouldn't recognize him.
"Xiao Zhou, this is your Uncle Yu Yanhong, the president of K University, and my old classmate."
Ye Zhizhou smiled politely at Yu Yanhong.
K University, the top university in the country, her dad has such an impressive old classmate. But her dad is no slouch either. This is probably because outstanding people are surrounded by other outstanding people.
"Qin Xuan, it's been so long!"
Yu Yanhong's reaction to Qin Xuan was quite strong.
"Hello, Uncle Yu." Qin Xuan's reaction was indifferent, quite different from Yu Yanhong's enthusiasm.
Ye Huaibin gestured for Yu Yanhong to sit down, "Old Yu, we have to have a couple of drinks tonight, it's been years since we last saw each other."
Yu Yanhong nodded, "Yes, last time I invited Ye Qian to K University, but he refused, which made me so angry that I said I would never come again."
Ye Zhizhou clicked her tongue in amazement. It turned out that her brother used to be a top student. He refused to go when the president of the First University personally invited him, but ended up going to film a movie instead.
"Xiaoqian has his own ideas, and I don't want to interfere, but Qin Xuan is about to graduate, so you should seize the opportunity."
As Ye Huaibin spoke, he toasted Yu Yanhong.
Yu Yanhong raised his glass and looked at Qin Xuan, "Qin Xuan, how about considering K University for the college entrance exam?"
Qin Xuan looked at Ye Zhizhou and found him lost in thought. He said directly, "I might stay in this city."
Yu Yanhong was displeased. "What's so good about staying in Ning City? K University has a much broader platform. Are you really not planning to come?"
Qin Xuan shook his head, "No, it's too far from home."
Yu Yanhong was so angry he vomited blood.
Ye Zhizhou looked at Qin Xuan, "That's K University, you know, don't you want to go?"
Qin Xuan put a piece of potato in her bowl, saying, "It's the same everywhere."
After thinking about it carefully, Ye Zhizhou realized that in the eyes of a top student like Qin Xuan, it probably didn't matter which university he went to, since he would only be one of the most dazzling ones anyway.
Yu Yanhong didn't ask Ye Zhizhou if she wanted to go to K University because he didn't know Ye Zhizhou's grades, and given the widening gap between girls and boys in high school, he didn't want to add to Ye Zhizhou's burden.
Ye Huaibin didn't bring it up himself. He had very low expectations of Ye Zhizhou, and even hoped that Ye Zhizhou wouldn't work too hard and could stay at home as a couch potato.
After dinner, Ye Zhizhou and Qin Xuan went upstairs to do their homework, while Ye Huaibin and Yu Yanhong chatted and laughed downstairs until midnight. Ye Huaibin then helped Yu Yanhong into a guest room.
As it approached midnight, Ye Zhizhou nestled in his blankets, silently waiting for midnight to arrive.
She was actually very tired, but she chose to persevere for Qin Xuan's birthday.
The time on his phone turned 0:00. Ye Zhizhou quickly opened WeChat and sent Qin Xuan a happy birthday message, along with a cute emoji.
After a few minutes of not receiving a message from Qin Xuan, she tossed and turned and fell asleep.
I woke up at almost eight o'clock this morning.
Ye Zhizhou first checked the delivery time of the ordered cake and other desserts on his phone before opening WeChat.
[Qin Xuan: I was taking a shower and didn't see it. Go to sleep early. Staying up past 11:30 is considered staying up late. Congratulations on receiving this message, thank you.]
As Ye Zhizhou smiled, she felt as if she were talking to an old cadre. On such a happy birthday, Qin Xuan was actually reminding her not to stay up late. He went to bed later than her, so wasn't he staying up late too?
As expected of Qin, whose iron will is straight and straightforward.
[Ye Zhizhou: Qin Jiajiao is coming to my house to play today, but not until after 11 o'clock.]
After a while.
Qin Xuan: Okay.
After quickly getting up and washing up, Ye Zhizhou started discussing with Zhang Ma what to eat at Qin Xuan's birthday party. In the end, they decided to have Chinese food.
Around 10 a.m., Shu Yin and her daughter arrived, both dressed up in their finest attire, looking as if they were attending a cocktail party.
"Old Ye, I don't believe your nonsense anymore. You clearly drank more than me, so how come you're not drunk? Didn't you say you had a high alcohol tolerance?"
Yu Yanhong came downstairs. The two of them had drunk too much yesterday, and he felt a headache. Zhang Ma made them a hangover soup, which would help them sober up.
"Shu Yin is here." When Yu Yanhong saw Shu Yin, his previous enthusiasm vanished instantly, replaced by calm.
Shu Yin originally only wanted to get along well with Qin Xuan, but she was surprised to find that Yu Yanhong was also there. She couldn't help but feel happy. Yu Yanhong has a high status in academia. If Shu Qiong can get into K University, she will be well-known in the academic circle in the future.
Thinking of this, she wanted to shake hands with Yu Yanhong, but Yu Yanhong didn't extend his hand. "I don't like these formalities. A greeting is enough."
Shu Yin forced a smile and quickly pushed Shu Qiong forward, "Principal Yu, this is my daughter Qiong. She usually gets excellent grades at school and is about to take the college entrance exam. I heard that K University is going to have its own admissions process soon. Could you perhaps..."
Yu Yanhong frowned. "The school only has ten spots in Ning City. It will all be fair competition. We won't resort to these underhanded tactics."
Ye Zhizhou couldn't help but laugh. This Principal Yu was indeed an academic; he was exceptionally straightforward, but compared to Qin Xuan, he was still a bit lacking.
Just then, Qin Xuan arrived, carrying a box in his hand, from which cats could be heard meowing from time to time.
