Chapter 1629: Chapter 858: This Time the Sister Tricks the Brother! _2

"Hmm, it’s okay, but I heard that Mist City Arts and Science University is a private university, right?"

Mom frowned and asked.

"Yeah, it is a private university. Come on, Mom, you’re not like little brother, looking down on private universities, are you?" Big sister was exasperated. Why does everyone seem to have a "prejudice" against private universities?

"Not at all."

Mom shook her head and smiled, saying, "Private universities are fine as long as their teaching quality is excellent and their degrees are nationally recognized. That’s not an issue at all. Mist City Arts and Science University meets those criteria, right? I remember reading somewhere, maybe last year or the year before, that Mist City Arts and Science University was certified as a nationally key university, isn’t that correct?"

"Exactly, exactly! Mist City Arts and Science University is a certified national key private university! Its degrees are undoubtedly nationally recognized. And you know what, Mom? The graduates from Mist City Arts and Science University were highly sought after this year. All those big companies wanted them!"

Sis nodded enthusiastically.

"Is it that exaggerated?"

Younger brother said dismissively.

"Didn’t you see the news during graduation season? Tons of leading companies went to recruit at Mist City Arts and Science University. In the end, many of the graduates chose Feiyue Group. Little brother, you’ve heard of Feiyue Group, right?"

Sis spoke proudly.

"Of course I’ve heard of it! Feiyue Group is pretty amazing." The younger brother nodded and added, "Isn’t Dad’s Feiyue · Future new energy car made by the Feiyue Group?"

"Yep!"

Sis was brimming with pride.

It was almost as if she were already a student of Mist City Arts and Science University. She hadn’t even enrolled yet but was radiating such a strong sense of honor.

"So, Mom, you’re supportive of me choosing Mist City Arts and Science University, right? I want to study medicine there. Mist City Arts and Science University’s medical program is amazing—it’s one of their flagship disciplines!"

Sis said, full of pride.

"Of course, I support your choices. But you must remember, with your own choice comes your own responsibility for it."

You have to hand it to Mom—she’s fantastic when it comes to educating her kids.

Even though neither the son nor the daughter had the academic prowess to get into Qinghua or Yancheng University, their scores were still pretty decent. Most importantly, they were able to make independent decisions on their own, which is no small feat for an eighteen-year-old.

"I know Mist City Arts and Science University’s medical school is really strong."

The brother suddenly chimed in, "I read online that the medical school at Mist City Arts and Science University is one of its five flagship departments. Sis, I support your decision to attend the medical school there."

"Then how about you come too? Mist City Arts and Science University’s chemistry program isn’t bad either."

Sis smiled as she continued trying to persuade her brother to join her at Mist City Arts and Science University.

"Both of you want to go to Mist City Arts and Science University? That’s great. Having both siblings together will mean you can look out for each other." Mom smiled warmly in response.

It seemed like Mom was pretty satisfied with their choices for the College Entrance Examination.

"Mom, I didn’t say I was going."

The brother shook his head and said, "I’m still... still deciding."

"What’s there to decide? With your College Entrance Examination score of 578, do you think Fudan University would even take you? The other key universities in Haicheng can’t compare to Mist City Arts and Science University, in my opinion."

Sis shrugged.

Her words left the brother dumbstruck. He was already feeling uncertain about which university to choose, and now he was even more confused.

"What about Haicheng University of Chemical Industry?"

After some thought, the brother considered that if he wanted to study chemistry, Haicheng University of Chemical Industry might actually be a decent option locally.

"Haicheng University of Chemical Industry? That place has been on the decline in recent years."

Sis replied calmly.

"Sigh."

The brother couldn’t really dispute that. Haicheng University of Chemical Industry had indeed been going downhill.

A decade or so ago, Haicheng University of Chemical Industry was a top-tier institution in the field of chemical engineering. But now, after some restructuring, its prominence had significantly waned. Plus, Haicheng no longer relied on chemical engineering for its economic development—it had now transformed into an international metropolis and financial hub.

"Little brother, stop hesitating and just come to Mist City Arts and Science University! It’s a great school. If I enroll in the medical program, with my College Entrance Examination score, I can even get a tuition waiver and a scholarship. Your score isn’t bad either—you could get into the chemistry department with similar benefits."

Sis said with a grin.

"Is that for real?"

Mom immediately perked up upon hearing this.

Mist City Arts and Science University was already an excellent school, officially recognized by the state, with great job prospects for its graduates. It had contributed significantly to national technological advancements. Mom had already been prepared to pay a bit extra for tuition, assuming private schools would naturally be more expensive. But to think that the tuition could be waived entirely, and on top of that, scholarships were available?

You had to admit, Mist City Arts and Science University really had some fantastic policies.

"I’d get a tuition waiver too?"

The brother asked in surprise.

"Yep."

Sis nodded and said with a grin, "Little brother, with your score surpassing Haicheng’s key university admission line, Mist City Arts and Science University offers tuition waivers for students above that threshold. Plus, the scholarships are pretty substantial too."

After hearing that.

The brother seemed to spark some interest. He looked up at Mom and grinned, "Hehehe, Mom, if I enroll in the chemistry department at Mist City Arts and Science University, could I use the saved tuition money as I wish?"

Wow. So he was scheming about the tuition money.

If Haicheng University of Chemical Industry was on the decline and the thought of going there left him unwilling, why not seriously consider Mist City Arts and Science University’s chemistry program?

Big sis was right. Mist City Arts and Science University truly had limitless potential, and a traditional program like chemistry was definitely not something the university would neglect.

It was only a matter of time.

By attending Mist City Arts and Science University and putting in the effort, he could certainly gain the knowledge and skills he needed.

Plus, as Sis mentioned, the tuition waiver and scholarships were appealing benefits. Although their family didn’t really need the money for tuition, it was still a nice perk.

With that in mind, why not discuss it with Mom? He could use the tuition money for the things he wanted, like gifts for *that* girl... all of which required cash.

"Hahahaha!"

Sis burst into laughter. "Mom, if it’s not enough, you can give my tuition savings to him, too."

After speaking, she coyly covered her mouth with her hand and whispered to Mom, "Mom, I know what little brother wants the money for. He’s dating a really pretty girlfriend."

"Cough, Sis, I heard that! How could you rat me out to Mom?"

The brother rolled his eyes at his sister.

"Well done, kid!"

Mom’s face lit up with joy after hearing that.

These days, having a son capable of courting a girl was definitely a good thing for a family to be proud of.

After all, one of the biggest headaches for many parents these days is wondering why their son hasn’t started dating yet!

And besides, he’s an adult now and about to start college. There’s really no reason not to support him dating at this point!
