Chapter 24: Chapter 24: School Starts

Fu Yaoyao let out an "ow" and covered her head, pouting, "I miss you, Senior~ By the way, Senior, tomorrow is my brother’s first day of school. Don’t you have some exam to take? How about I take him to school for you?"

Rong Zhi nodded slightly, "Mm, contact me if anything comes up."

"Speaking of which, haven’t you already gotten your PhD, Senior? Why are you still thinking of going to high school?"

Fu Yaoyao folded the prescription Rong Zhi wrote and put it into her little rabbit backpack, giggling, "Last time Old Man Lu invited you to be a professor at their place, and you didn’t go. If he finds out you’re going to high school, he might just get infuriated!"

The Old Man Lu she referred to is the president of one of the country’s prestigious schools, Jing University, and a friend of their master.

He admired Rong Zhi’s talent and wanted her to serve as a full professor in the mechanical department at Jing University, but never succeeded.

The main reasons were twofold: their master wouldn’t let her go, and Rong Zhi was too lazy to move.

Their master always believed that Rong Zhi should inherit his legacy and make a name in the medical field.

But...

Fu Yaoyao glanced sideways at Rong Zhi, who was slouched on the sofa like she had no bones, playing games with her legs crossed, and shook her head mischievously.

What a pity that Senior’s lazy, the master’s wish is in vain~

...

The next morning.

Rong Zhi slept until 7:50. Sleeping pills shouldn’t be taken too much, and sleep-inducing aroma didn’t work on her, so she didn’t sleep well again.

After washing up and slipping into her shoes downstairs, the only one left at the Rong Family was Ying Man.

Rong Zhi glanced at her, turned into the kitchen, and came out with a piece of bread in her mouth, putting on her shoes as she headed out.

Ying Man was completely ignored.

She nearly crushed the TV remote in her hand.

Outside the villa.

Rong Zhi was slowly munching on the bread.

The Rong Family had set up rides for the young master and miss to commute to school. Rong Zhi was supposed to have one too, but today the driver, Lin, responsible for taking her to school, suddenly fell ill and couldn’t make it.

Gazing at the empty road, Rong Zhi clicked her tongue softly.

In such a large Rong Family, is there really no second ’Driver Lin’?

Who would believe it wasn’t intentional.

Finished with the bread in a few bites, her throat felt dry, making her slightly uncomfortable. She exhaled gently, swung her backpack over her shoulder, and flexed her joints into a starting position.

The neighbors who were out early driving to walk their dogs only saw a figure swiftly dart pass the front of their car, leaving only a dark blur in its wake.

Never mind the neighbors, even the dog was dumbfounded.

Whoa, can humans move that fast?!

At 8:15, Rong Zhi stopped at the gates of Mingwu High School.

It would usually take fifteen minutes to drive from the Rong Family to the school, but she managed to cut it down to about the same time as driving.

Aside from slightly uneven breathing, Rong Zhi didn’t even break a sweat; her complexion was as normal.

She took out her phone to check the time, slightly furrowing her brows.

Late.

The entrance exam was supposed to start at 8:15.

However, she was the only one in the whole school taking the entrance exam for a senior grade level, so being late didn’t affect much, though she’d likely leave a bad impression on the teachers.

She didn’t care about what image she left in the teachers’ minds, only worried that the old man would find out and be concerned.

Rong Zhi rubbed her temples, stretched her long legs, and headed towards the exam venue.

Building B, inside the senior year director’s office.

The office table was moved aside to make space for a small student desk in the front.

In front of the small desk stood a middle-aged woman in professional black and white attire, her hair tied into a ponytail, and with an impeccably neat face, looking serious.

This was Yao Xiaoshan, the director for the senior year. Opposite her stood Zhou Zhongming, math teacher and form teacher of Class 1, likewise in professional attire and wearing black-frame glasses.

There was another teacher outside the office; they were all invigilators for today’s entrance exam.

However, the person they were waiting for, the sole candidate for the entrance exam, was late!

Zhou Zhongming glanced at his watch for the fifth time, impatiently furrowing his brow, "Is he coming or not? Someone who’s about to enter Mingwu High School and can’t even be on time."

Mingwu High School doesn’t accept students lacking in moral character. Even if their grades were poor, their personal conduct must be exemplary.

And clearly, that student isn’t eligible!

Zhou Zhongming had lost his patience waiting, as he had a class to teach soon. He gestured towards Yao Xiaoshan, about to speak—

"He’s here!"

The teacher outside suddenly pushed the door open, Yao Xiaoshan and Zhou Zhongming turned to look.

At the doorway stood a tall young man, dressed in a navy blue hoodie, the loose clothing clinging to his body with the wind, revealing a slight emptiness, his legs slender and long wrapped in black fitted pants.

His features were strikingly beautiful, especially those eyes, which seemed all too alluring, and the hint of red in them added a touch of mischief.

Faced with such an astonishingly handsome face, Zhou Zhongming suddenly found himself at a loss for words.

Yao Xiaoshan’s eyes even brightened.

The young man lowered his gaze, concealing the wickedness in his eyes, and slowly curved his lips, "Reporting in, I’m Rong Zhi, here for the entrance exam."

Zhou Zhongming snapped back to reality at the sound, speaking with a slight edge, "You’re late."

"Unexpected circumstances, my apologies."

The young man’s attitude in admitting his mistake was unexpectedly good.

But Zhou Zhongming was uninterested in the unexpected circumstances he mentioned and merely reiterated, "You’re late. Here at Mingwu High School, we don’t accept students with poor conduct. Your entrance exam is canceled."

Rong Zhi stood next to the little teacher, expression unchanged.

Yao Xiaoshan sized her up thoroughly, pausing to say, "Whether the exam is canceled is up to me. You’re Rong Zhi, right? Come in and take the exam."

"Director Yao?!" Zhou Zhongming was very surprised.

Yao Xiaoshan was known in Mingwu High School for her cold-heartedness and impartiality. Yet here she was, breaking her own rules for a student with poor conduct?!

The little teacher was also quite shocked, but she was on Rong Zhi’s side.

Being late is not a big deal; in the face of such looks, even if Rong Zhi was late ten times, she couldn’t muster any anger.

Not wanting to waste time, Yao Xiaoshan directly spread the test papers on the desk and said to Rong Zhi, "Come in."

Yao Xiaoshan had already spoken; if Zhou Zhongming insisted on canceling the exam, it would be seen as opposing her, so he begrudgingly held his tongue, sitting down with a rather sour expression.

While Rong Zhi was taking the exam, the little teacher went to the academic office to fetch her student records, but Zhou Zhongming took them first.

"Quit school in the first year of senior high?!"

Rong Zhi finished the last difficult math question and set her pen down.

Before Yao Xiaoshan could take the test paper to grade it, Zhou Zhongming stepped forward, slamming the student records on the test paper, and pointed loudly at a line, "Director Yao, we can’t accept Rong Zhi at Mingwu High School!"

"Let’s not mention the fact she was late; even just going by what’s in the records, she spent three years in junior high hanging out with hoodlums, leading to bottom-tier grades, and dropped out in her first year of senior high to work. For three years, she has been doing nothing. The school can’t accept such a person!"

Whatever admiration her looks sparked had vanished at this moment.

Zhou Zhongming frowned.

No wonder there was something off about Rong Zhi; turns out she really was a delinquent!

Mingwu High School had never accepted a student with such a problematic background!

The little teacher scratched her head, stammering, "But Rong was always just going through the motions for the entrance exam..."

The implication was that whether Zhou Zhongming agreed or not, regardless of how Rong Zhi performed, she was going to be admitted to Mingwu High School.

Rong Zhi slightly raised an eyebrow, glancing playfully at the earnest little teacher.

The little teacher’s cheeks flushed slightly from her gaze, and she turned her head a bit, fiddling with her clothes.

Yao Xiaoshan’s gaze was heavy as she ran her fingers over Rong Zhi’s student records, stopping at the last line.

After a long silence, she spoke in a calm voice, "There’s no significant issue in admitting out of the ordinary. Mingwu High School is capable of teaching Rong Zhi well, so her admission is settled."
