Chapter 265: Chapter 265: Guaranteeing You Break into the Top Three or Four
Li Hongsheng could see what everyone was thinking, but Professor He Lv was about to leave, so he waved his hand in a shooing motion, "That’s enough, everyone, disperse. Tomorrow Professor He has an open lecture, and those of you who want to exchange academic ideas can attend."
Upon hearing this, the crowd cheerfully dispersed, with the vice-principal leading the way.
Several directors and their wives followed at the back, along with Shen Jiping and his wife.
"Mr. Shen, business has been good lately, hasn’t it?"
"The Shen Family is really hot in Lan City now. All the big companies are scrambling to cooperate with the Shen Group, and I hear you’re preparing for an IPO?"
Shen Jiping responded cheerfully, "Indeed, that is the case. When the time comes, I’ll be counting on everyone’s support."
Since these were the people handling the audits, he definitely had to maintain good relations with them.
Bai Hui was laughing and joking with a few of the directors’ wives behind them.
When a group of women gathered together, compliments for Bai Hui were inevitable, especially since it was the Shen Family that had taken the spotlight this time.
Having a professor from Jing University come down to Lancheng High School to give a lecture had really allowed Bai Hui to shine among the women.
Just then, Shen Xuan walked over. The upper echelons had a sharp eye; they quickly recognized her dress as Tever and, given her resemblance to Shen Jiping and Bai Hui, her composed and smiling demeanor prompted them to guess her identity, smiling warmly at her.
Her status was not ordinary now; she was the apprentice to the vice president of the Beijing Piano Association. Even her father didn’t have as high a standing as she did.
"Mom." Shen Xuan smiled and approached Bai Hui, glancing at the people around her.
Bai Hui’s lips curved upward, "Let me introduce you. This is my daughter, Shen Xuan."
As soon as she finished speaking, people began to offer their praise.
"Mrs. Shen has truly raised a pair of remarkable children, each one outstanding," said the wife of the Director of Education, generous with her compliments.
"I’ve heard young Xuanxuan excels in all sorts of arts, and not only is she beautiful, but she’s also the belle of Lancheng High School. If my family had a son her age, I would definitely have him marry you."
Bai Hui’s lips twisted in a feigned smile, modestly laughing. Given her daughter’s current status, she couldn’t possibly be interested in the sons of Lan City, they would have to be from Beijing at least.
Shen Xuan’s cheeks flushed with a hint of rosy shyness. "Please don’t tease me, aunties."
Just then, Yun Yue appeared within everyone’s line of sight.
She was carrying a black bag, wearing a duckbill cap, exuding a bandit vibe, and walking with a carefree demeanor.
"Miss Yun." Several directors greeted her when they saw her. The mayor hadn’t come today and was lukewarm towards the Shen Family, but he was exceptionally friendly towards her. If her status was only what it appeared on the surface, could she warrant such treatment from the mayor?
Regardless of her actual status, it cost nothing to greet her and show some face, and who knows, it might even curry some favor.
Yun Yue tilted her chin slightly and lifted the brim of her hat, revealing a delicate but cheeky face. She nodded slightly, her gaze settling on Professor He Lv. With a defiant arch of her elegant eyebrows, she carelessly brushed past them.
Li Hongsheng’s eyes nearly popped out.
Your pride is one thing, but when you see a teacher or leader, could you at least say hello, ask how they are? Otherwise, it might get out that students from Lancheng High School disrespect their elders and superiors.
The directors’ wives, curious to see their husbands greeting a young female student, asked, "Who is that girl?"
Her face was delicate, half-hidden in the shadow, but still managed to catch their eye.
This girl was too beautiful!
She was dressed in a plain black hoodie, and although the brand wasn’t obvious, those present could tell from a single glance that the fabric of her clothes seemed even finer than the Tever dress Shen Xuan was wearing.
Her hair casually draped over her shoulders, flowing freely with a dark luster that, combined with her delicate face, gave her an even stronger presence than Shen Xuan, and made her even more beautiful.
How could such a girl not be the belle of Lancheng High School?
Shen Xuan and Bai Hui’s faces soured instantly, but no one noticed, and they quickly returned to their normal expressions.
The flight from Beijing to Lan City was only her trip this afternoon, the morning flight was canceled due to weather. She just asked Lin Xuanze, and he said she didn’t come back yesterday, so how did she manage to return so quickly?
"She’s a student from class seven," Bai Hui said in a muffled voice, offering no further introduction.
The classes at Lancheng High School are divided by academic performance, with Shen Xuan in class one and Yun Yue in class seven. The gap between these classes is self-evident.
It happened to be school dismissal time, and all the students poured out of the building.
When students from class seven saw Yun Yue, they immediately waved and approached, "Sister Yue."
Several of them were rich ladies who frowned upon hearing the social title, holding no good feelings towards Yun Yue.
Bai Hui and Shen Xuan exchanged a look; they hadn’t said anything.
Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Gu Yue walking this way and lowered her eyelids.
Despite having the same surname, Gu Cong was the heir of the wealthy Gu Family, while Gu Yue was a child from an ordinary family in Lan City—a chasm as wide as a grand canyon lay between them.
The haze of the past days had lifted now that he was ignoring her. Their paths were destined never to cross again; he was the one who distanced himself first, and he shouldn’t come looking for her in the future.
Gu Yue’s cold brows furrowed as he looked at Yun Yue, "You took my lollipop but didn’t do the job."
Yun Yue: "?"
He spoke at a leisurely pace, "You skip classes too often."
Yun Yue let out a light laugh, tilting her head provocatively low, "Guaranteeing you third or fourth place nationally."
Yang Xing tilted his head, "Why third or fourth?"
Even if she were first, there would still be a second and third place, right?!
Yun Yue took two steps forward, slightly turning to the side, her raised eyebrows and eyes wild and unrestrained, her lips curved in a roguish smile, she laughed without saying a word.
Everyone waited for her to continue, but all she left was a baffling smile that scratched at their curiosity.
So why couldn’t Young Master Gu be second?
Gu Yue: "..."
It felt like all that candy was given in vain.
He had aimed for second place, and not only did she fail to teach him, but she also looked down on him and knocked down his confidence.
With her around, becoming the national top scorer was impossible, unless she threw the game. Otherwise, he was just dreaming.
No one would joke about their college entrance exams; over a decade of toiling behind closed doors was for the chance to get into the best universities.
"Sister Yue, are you coming to eat?" Liu Xiaopang watched her enter the academic building.
A husky voice came from the hallway.
"Get me a portion, I’ll be right there."
Class seven usually ate together, but because Professor He came to their school today, it had been ten minutes since class ended and there were hardly any people in the cafeteria. They were all gathered at the school gate, eager to see Professor He’s true face.
"You guys in class seven are not excited at all, maybe Professor He would share a secret, and you could make it into Jing..." A boy from class two looked at the group from class seven and noticed they were staring at him strangely. He stopped speaking abruptly, wisely lowering his head and shoving food into his mouth.
So, the only clown was him.
What a bunch of freaks in class seven!
Why wasn’t he a student of class seven? Even though the food was delicious, it tasted like nothing in his mouth.
