Chapter 267: Two Schools Compete to Invite Her

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Once Old Master Cheng said the word “Zhou Shan”, the other party stopped abruptly.

Both felt like each other’s voices were very familiar.

“Elder Cheng?” Zhou Shan was also taken aback.

They both went silent.

After a second, Zhou Shan said quickly, “Sorry, Elder Cheng. I made the wrong call.”

They hung up the phone.

Tapping his finger on the table, Old Master Cheng felt like something wasn’t right.

During the call upstairs, Zhou Shan had clearly said he was about to contact this year’s college entrance examination top scorer. But the next second, he had dialed for the phone downstairs?

He had even mentioned Qin Ran.

Old Master Cheng glanced at Qin Ran. Of course, he knew...

That girl was Qin Ran.

...

At Beijing University.

Zhou Shan hung up the phone and quickly flipped through the information.

The person beside him called, “Principal?”

“It’s nothing. I called Elder Cheng again.”

Zhou Shan shook his head and pointed at the number on the information sheet. He glanced at the call log again and clenched his hands.

He thought he had made a mistake and redialed Elder Cheng’s phone.

But now, looking at the contact number of the landline in Yun Cheng at the top of his phone’s address book and comparing it to the number he had finally obtained from the information sheet, he realized they were identical.

He hadn’t called the wrong number.

It was the information filled in by the student.

As for why Elder Cheng answered the phone, Zhou Shan quickly thought of the “junior” that Old Master Cheng had always talked about.

Without any hesitation, he picked up his phone directly and dialed the number again.

It didn’t go through on the first try.

The second try was the same.

Zhou Shan dialed for the third time patiently.

Just when he was about to hang up reluctantly on the third try, the phone call was finally picked up.

In Yun Cheng, Old Master Cheng sat on the sofa, withdrawing his gaze from Qin Ran. “Why are you calling again?”

Zhou Shan was in no mood to joke around and directly said in a serious tone, “The junior you told me about just now was Qin Ran? The one in Yun Cheng?”

“Yeah.” Old Master Cheng was unperturbed.

Zhou Shan was speechless.

His breath caught in his throat for a while, then he reached out and patted the table. “I give my promise regarding what you said just now. On top of that, her tuition admission is free-of-charge, and I will allocate a large number of resources and bonuses every year!”

Old Master Cheng clenched his fists on the table, but his voice still sounded as calm as ever. “Sorry, but I will need to reconsider. Before your phone call, the Principal of University A called me.”

Zhou Shan almost vomited blood after hearing this. “What are you considering?!”

“After all, you didn’t really want her to enter your school before,” Old Master Cheng continued.

Zhou Shan almost choked to death. Who knew that Old Master Cheng would try to open the back door for his junior who had clearly performed so well in her exams? Besides opening the back door, he had even made such excessive requests, so how could Zhou Shan have agreed so easily?

But Zhou Shan was unable to speak of his bitter sufferings and simply comforted him in a thin voice.

“Elder Cheng, then why don’t you think over it slowly? Give me a call once you’ve made a decision?” Zhou Shan suppressed his exasperation.

They hung up.

Elder Cheng glanced over at Qin Ran.

She wanted to pretend not to notice, but his stare was simply too obvious. She supported her chin with one hand and tilted her head. Glancing at Old Master Cheng, she put the hand holding her chin away.

“Have you checked the results of your college entrance examination?” Old Master Cheng asked.

“Not yet.” Qin Ran only remembered it now.

“Hmm.” Old Master Cheng nodded and said majestically, “Then check it quickly.”

Butler Cheng stood next to him and quickly signaled Old Master Cheng with his eyes, hinting him not to touch Miss Qin’s sore spot.

Cheng Mu and Lu Zhaoying’s expressions also changed.

“Elder Cheng, I heard that you came to see the scenery...” Lu Zhaoying got up from his chair and smiled. “I wonder if you have any special places you would like to go to. I can take you there.”

“I’ve already planned the itinerary,” Butler Cheng said quickly, glancing at Qin Ran and Old Master Cheng. “Miss Qin, do you want to go out and relax? People who stay at home are prone to depression.”

Old Master Cheng glanced at Butler Cheng with a calm expression and said, “Sightseeing isn’t the urgent matter here. Check her results first.”

He went on about checking the results again.

Butler Cheng was speechless. He was really touching her sore spot!

At this time, the landline phone rang again. Old Master Cheng was too far away, so Butler Cheng walked over and picked it up. “Hello.”

The person on the other end spoke.

Lu Zhaoying watched as Butler Cheng’s expression seemed to stiffen. After a long while, he gave a numb “Ok” and finally said, “I’ll ask her about it.”

Then, he hung up the call.

Butler Cheng turned around.

Lu Zhaoying stared at him, puzzled. “Butler Cheng, who called you? What happened? Are you alright?”

Butler Cheng glanced stiffly at him. “It was from University A’s Principal, inquiring Miss Qin if she wants to attend their school.”

“University A’s Principal?” Lu Zhaoying sat up straight and glanced at Qin Ran as if he had just figured something out. “What the f*ck, Qin Ran, how much did you score? Check your results! Check your results!”

The Principal of University A had even called!

Lu Zhaoying naturally knew that last year, both universities in Beijing had pulled out all their stops for a student.

“There’s no need.” Cheng Juan glanced at them and reached out to throw his phone on the table. “I’ve already checked it.”

On the way back to the villa with Old Master Cheng just now, he had already checked Qin Ran’s results.

His phone was unlocked and showed a column of results.

Candidate: Qin Ran.

Chinese: 147.

Mathematics: 150.

English: 150.

Science Comprehensive: 300.

Total Scores: 747.

Provincial Ranking: 1.

Lu Zhaoying was speechless.

Particularly anxious, Butler Cheng leaned over to take a look. “Miss Qin scored...”

Old Master Cheng didn’t speak and stood calmly with his hands behind his back, but after a while, he saw that Lu Zhaoying and Butler Cheng seemed shell-shocked.

He coughed, but they still didn’t react.

Old Master Cheng couldn’t bear it anymore.

He walked over slowly and glanced at the phone on the table. He was rendered speechless.

**

Lu Zhaoying and the others had been afraid of Qin Ran’s results and hadn’t dared mention it.

After seeing her exceptional results, he added back the banquet that he had removed.

He even took his mobile phone and refurbished all the banners and screen advertisements in the center of the square.

Butler Cheng and Cheng Mu added a list of last-minute guests at night.

There were a lot of guests even though it was last-minute. Knowing that it was a banquet for Qin Ran, they all took time out even if they were busy.

“There are so many people?” Old Master Cheng glanced at the long list of names in Butler Cheng’s hands, surprised.

“Miss Qin has a lot of classmates.” Butler Cheng looked at it and saw that the majority were her classmates.

He had sought Qin Ran’s approval regarding this point. Class 3.9 basically performed surprisingly well this time, and none of them made big mistakes, so she had invited most of them.

Butler Cheng prepared two rooms. The larger one was filled with entertainment facilities for the group of students, while the smaller one was for Jiang Hui and the other big bosses to eat and chat.

With his hands behind his back, Old Master Cheng glanced at the address, which showed Yun Ding Hotel. He nodded and said, “Check if they made any omissions.”

Butler Cheng turned another page and saw Jiang Hui’s name with several others.

Old Master Cheng had already left with his hands behind his back and a calm expression.

Butler Cheng glanced at him and saw that his legs were shaking...

At the same time.

The Lin family also prepared a banquet.

Qin Yu had scored a total of 649 in the examinations this time. She was about 1000th place in the province and 19th place in school. Since she had taken a half-year leave from school to study the violin, her results were already considerably good.

It was beyond the Lin family’s expectations.

Beaming, Ning Qing called Ning Wei first to tell her about Qin Yu’s results. She wanted to invite their family over, but Ning Wei only congratulated her and said she was busy tonight.

What could be more important than the banquet celebrating Qin Yu’s college entrance examination results?

Pursing her lips, Ning Qing hung up the phone, her expression very bad.

“Mom, what’s wrong?” Qin Yu asked.

These days, the entire Lin family was shrouded in dark clouds due to the Meng family’s affairs. There was finally a happy event, so Ning Qing didn’t want to mope over having her spirits dampened by Ning Wei. She shook her head and said, “It’s nothing. Go and see which classmates you want to invite.”

Qin Yu was happy that she had performed well this time. She nodded and stopped asking, certainly disinterested in whether Ning Wei was coming.

The two coincidentally arranged their banquets at Yun Ding Hotel at the same time.
