It was past lunchtime and there were not many people in the cafeteria. After Lu Xia went in, he found a corner for the girl to sit down and then went to get his own food.
They had not planned to eat at school in the evening, and their family would probably leave some food for them, so she did not buy too much, just two steamed buns, two bowls of porridge, and a plate of pickles.
After taking it back, I gave one portion to the girls.
Seeing that she was still going to refuse, he said directly: "I've already bought it. It would be a waste if I don't eat it. Don't worry, the school meals are very cheap. These are less than ten cents."
The girl felt relieved after hearing this, but she didn't plan to eat it for free. Instead, she took out a dime from her pocket and handed it to her.
"I can't take your food for free. If you don't charge me, I won't eat it."
Seeing that she was so insistent, Lu Xia had no choice but to accept it.
After that, the girl finally started eating, and during the meal Lu Xia casually asked about some customs and habits in Gan Province. The girl didn't find anything wrong and told him everything she knew.
Soon the two of them finished eating. The girl wiped her mouth and said enviously: "The food in your cafeteria is so delicious, it's worthy of being Beijing University!"
Lu Xia smiled and said, "Yes, it's good. Plus, there are subsidies from the government, and it's cheap."
...
...
The girls became even more envious after hearing this.
Seeing this, Lu Xia asked: "By the way, since your home is so far away, why did you come to Beijing University? And you are looking for the admissions office, are you a student of Beijing University?"
The girl hesitated after hearing this, not knowing whether she should say it or not. However, seeing that Lu Xia not only cared about her safety at night but also took her out for dinner, she thought about it and decided to say it.
"I came here to ask the school whether I was admitted to Kyoto University last year?"
"Ah? Why are you asking this? If you pass the exam, won't you receive an admission letter?" Lu Xia already had some guesses when he heard this, but he didn't show it.
The girl had a complicated expression after hearing this, "Yes, if you pass the exam you will receive an admission letter, so when I didn't receive one, I also thought I didn't pass."
"Oh? And then?" It's obvious there's another story here. ..
The girl seemed to have been holding it in for too long, and now that she finally had someone she could talk to, she started to talk.
“In fact, right after the college entrance examination, I felt that I had done well. After comparing answers with the educated youth in our village, everyone thought that I would definitely pass. Surprisingly, the educated youth who had performed worse than me received admission letters, but I was the only one who didn’t.
Although I felt strange at the time, I didn’t think much about it. I just thought that I didn’t perform well, and then started reviewing for the next exam.
As a result, when I went to the county town one time, I met a classmate who worked in the post office, and she actually congratulated me on being admitted to university!
I was very surprised when I heard that. I clearly didn’t pass the exam.
But she said with certainty that she had seen the letter with the admission letter sent to me. Although she didn't know which school I was admitted to, the admission letter was definitely from me because the address on the letter was our village.
She said the letter was then picked up by our town’s courier.
But I never received it, and that’s when I knew something was wrong.
But later I went to the town post office to ask, and they refused to admit that they had received my admission letter.
I didn't believe it, so I went to the county education bureau to ask, but they didn't have one either.
But my classmate couldn’t have been wrong. If she really didn’t have it, she wouldn’t have told me.”
After hearing what she said, Lu Xia was basically certain that she had been impersonated by someone, and it was possible that she knew the person who replaced her.
Then the girl continued, "At this time, I heard a happy event happened in the county. Someone was admitted to Beijing University!"
Lu Xia's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.
