Chapter 225: Chapter 189: Director of the Education Bureau: _1

At the entrance of Mist City Arts and Science University.

A black sedan slowly arrived.

Ding Yue stood on the right side of the entrance. Upon seeing the black car, he turned to his secretary, Wen Ruohan, and asked, "Secretary Wen, is that the car?"

"I believe so. I checked, and the license plate matches Director Xiao Wenxing’s car from our Mist City Education Department."

Wen Ruohan nodded, confirming.

Ding Yue had just received a call from Director Xiao Wenxing of the Mist City Education Department, and immediately hurried to the university gate to welcome him.

After all, Director Xiao was the head of the Education Department, overseeing Mist City’s educational work.

Even though Ding Yue knew why Director Xiao came, he still gave him the respect he deserved.

However, only Ding Yue needed to come to welcome him; there was no need for a large-scale welcoming ceremony as that was not the practice.

He remembered that during Director Zhang’s previous visit, they mentioned that there was no need for extravagant welcomes.

The black sedan slowly arrived and came to a stop at the gate.

After seeing this, Ding Yue approached the car.

The car door opened.

First, a young man got out of the car, then a middle-aged man wearing glasses came out from the other side.

The man wearing glasses was most likely Director Xiao Wenxing.

Although Ding Yue had seen pictures of Director Xiao Wenxing online, there were some differences between the official photo and what the director looked like in person.

"Director Xiao, welcome to Mist City Arts and Science University,"

Ding Yue warmly extended a hand to shake Director Xiao’s hand.

After shaking hands with Ding Yue, Xiao Wenxing asked, "You must be Principal Ding. Impressive for someone so young. I remember when your university, Mist City Arts and Science University, applied for an allotment of 5000 acres of educational land; we held a special meeting to approve it."

"Thank you, Director Xiao, for your support of our private education," Ding Yue expressed his gratitude.

Then, pointing in a direction to his right, he said, "Director Xiao, over there is the first phase of our university’s expansion project, which is almost at the final stage now."

In the direction mentioned, high-rise apartments towered, and one could see the majestic Book Ship Library in the distance.

"Eh? That building... is that the Bookship Library?"

Director Xiao Wenxing looked in the direction Ding Yue pointed and asked.

The Bookship Library was quite well-known in Mist City.

Firstly, the Bookship Library had won the Best Innovation Award at the 2020 Hop Cup, and it also had a significant online presence.

"Yes, Director Xiao, that is the Bookship Library. It is almost ready for final inspection now," Ding Yue replied.

"Let’s go, let’s take a look."

Director Xiao Wenxing gave a slight nod and started walking towards the university campus.

Ding Yue hurriedly followed him.

Director Xiao was the head of the Mist City Education Department, so even if his university was a private one, as long as it involved education, Ding Yue’s university would be under Director Xiao’s jurisdiction.

However, upon his arrival, Director Xiao did not immediately start discussing matters related to Ding Yue’s sister, Ding Xiaoyou. Instead, he first wanted to tour the Mist City Arts and Science University.

In fact, Director Xiao Wenxing had planned to visit Mist City Arts and Science University for some time but hadn’t had any free time to do so.

The moment he saw the headline news about Ding Xiaoyou, the College Entrance Examination Champion, he knew he had to come.

There were many wonderful things about Mist City Arts and Science University.

In only one year of its establishment, it had made great strides in certain fields of study. For instance, the Book Ship Library they were about to visit.

Winning the Hop Cup was a testament to their success.

"Principal Ding, I heard that this Book Ship Library was designed by some students from your university’s Architecture Department?"

Director Xiao Wenxing asked curiously.

"Indeed, Director Xiao. The library of our school was too crowded, and many students didn’t have places to read. There was an urgent need to build a new library, so I started a university-wide collection activity for library designs."

Ding Yue explained, "The university’s teachers and students were quite active in this."

"Hahaha, that’s a great idea, letting the students design their own library. It would undoubtedly stimulate their enthusiasm."

Director Xiao Wenxing said nodding.

"Yes, yes, the students from all over the university designed many works, but in the end, the works designed by the students of the Architecture Department were the most suitable. As the saying goes, ’everyone has a specialty in their field’. Eventually, a design submitted by a team made up of several students from the Architecture Department and one teacher was selected by both the school committee and the entire university faculty and students. This design became the Bookship Library."

Ding Yue said with a smile.

"Excellent, excellent."

Suddenly, Ding Yue and Director Xiao Wenxing had arrived at the Book Ship Library.

Seeing the completed structure up close, the library appeared even more majestic.

It was akin to the feeling of standing in front of the Bird’s Nest Stadium. The aura was self-explanatory.

"By the way, Principal Ding, have you seen today’s headline news?" Director Xiao Wenxing was chatting with Ding Yue when the topic shifted towards the reason for his visit.
