“I came out to take a breather.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the words on the hotel’s rolling screen: “Congratulations to our city’s Year Three Cla.s.s A student, Qiao Nian, for getting into Qing University.” Her smile instantly froze at the corner of her mouth, and her face suddenly turned pale.
Qiao Nian, Qiao Nian, Qiao Nian… Why was Qiao Nian everywhere?!
It was clearly her promotional banquet at the hotel today, but the hotel was rolling out screen to congratulate Qiao Nian for getting into Qing University…
Qiao Chen clenched her fists tightly and endured it with all her might to control her indignant and trembling shoulders.
Fu Ge didn’t see the caption, so he didn’t notice the change in her expression. He stood in front of her and smiled, his face handsome. “Congratulations, Chen Chen. You successfully entered Qing University.”
Qiao Chen returned to her senses and looked up at him with bright eyes. A little touched, she said gently, “Thank you.”
Fu Ge looked at the girl’s fair and delicate side profile and couldn’t help but reach out to rub her hair. When he saw the girl lower her head shyly, he retracted his hand and raised it casually. “By the way, why don’t I see Qiao Nian? She didn’t come?”
Qiao Chen was originally blus.h.i.+ng, but when she heard this, her blood turned cold. She bit her lips and looked up with an extremely unnatural expression. “I sent her an invitation…”
She didn’t finish her sentence, but her meaning was obvious.
She had sent an invitation to Qiao Nian, but she did not come.
Fu Ge frowned slightly.
Qiao Chen continued to speak slowly, “I heard from Xu Xu that she went to school to take a leave the day before yesterday. She asked for more than half a month. She might not be in Rao City.”
As expected.
Fu Ge frowned again and said in disbelief, “First High School allowed her to take such a long leave?”
Heh, wasn’t First High School famous for having two standards?
First High School’s forum’s administrator quickly deleted Wu Jie’s post.
When Wu Jie posted her thread, the administrator seemed blind. He allowed the thread to remain on the forum for three days before deleting it.
However, in the face of Fu Ge’s question, she couldn’t possibly tell him about Wu Jie. Therefore, she lowered her eyes and said softly, “She got first place in the joint examination. First High School obviously doesn’t object to treating her like a treasure. I just don’t know where she went.”
However, Fu Ge thought of a place—Beijing.
He took a deep breath and suppressed the complicated feelings in his heart with all his might. Then, he looked at the girl standing there talking to him in disappointment. His eyes softened again as he placed his hand on Qiao Chen’s shoulder and comforted her in a low voice. “Chen Chen, don’t feel too bad. It’s a good thing to get into Qing University…”
Qiao Chen pinched her hands and said, “Yes, I know. I don’t feel bad.”
However, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
That’s true.
It was supposed to be a good thing that she got into Qing University, but now that the streets and alleys were filled with banners congratulating Qiao Nian for getting into Qing University, how many people knew that she got into Qing University too?
Qiao Nian had stolen all the limelight!
Fu Ge: “She… Although her results this time are better than yours, she chose the Chinese Medicine major. You know the situation of this major in Qing University. Only Mr. Huang can speak for this field. Mr. Huang can’t possibly take care of a student, so even if she goes to Qing University in the future, she can’t compare to you.”
Qiao Chen forced herself to calm down. She pursed her lips and grunted, but it was unknown if she heard him.
Fu Ge patted her shoulder again and comforted her silently before changing the topic.. “By the way, the music event will be in a week. Have you prepared the songs?”
