Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After calling Master Xu and Jiang Zhongyu, Master Leng gave a call to a man named Cai Qinghua.
“Leng, why are you calling me this early in the morning? Do you still want that calligraphy from me? Let me tell you what, no matter how much you pay, I won’t sell it to you! I’m very busy now, so you can end this call if you don’t have anything important to talk to me about,” Cai Qinghua said.
Cai Qinghua wasn’t as close to Master Leng as Master Xu and Jiang Zhongyu were, but he was an old friend of Master Leng too.
“What’re you busy with?” Master Leng asked.
“There is a student who has a full score in City F this year, and I need to invite her to have a meeting with me right away. It has never happened before!” Cai Qinghua said with great excitement in his voice.
Cai Qinghua was the princ.i.p.al of the Capital University. Actually, every princ.i.p.al of each prestigious university was attracted by Gu Ning’s total score of the exam. Therefore, Cai Qinghua planned to see Gu Ning as soon as possible.
“Do you mean Gu Ning?” Master Leng said with a smile on his lips.
“How do you know that?” Cai Qinghua was surprised.
“Do you want her to study in your university?” Master Leng asked on purpose.
“Of course!” Cai Qinghua said.
“If you sell that calligraphy to me, I’ll help you get her into your university, or you’ll lose her,” Master Leng said in a threatening tone. He was using Gu Ning to threaten Cai Qinghua.
Although Gu Ning’s dream university was precisely the Capital University and n.o.body could change her mind, Master Leng still purposely said that, trying to get the calligraphy from Cai Qinghua. He knew that that calligraphy was very precious in Cai Qinghua’s eyes, so he could only try it without a better idea.
Cai Qinghua got anxious. “Leng, do you want to threaten that student? It’s unacceptable! The girl must have studied very hard in order to have a bright future, and you can’t stop her from getting into the Capital University!”
“It’s not clear whether she’ll choose the Capital University or not, and there are other highly prestigious universities in the capital as well,” Master Leng said with disdain.
“You…” Cai Qinghua was annoyed, because Master Leng was right. There were other prestigious universities in the capital, so the top students still had choices.
“Wait a second, do you know the student very well?” Cai Qinghua asked.
“Yes, she’s my future grand daughter-in-law, so I’ll tell her to study in another prestigious university in the capital if you don’t sell the calligraphy to me,” Master Leng said with pride.
“What? Gu Ning is your future grand daughter-in-law? Are you kidding me?” Cai Qinghua couldn’t believe it.
Gu Ning was in City F, while the Leng family was in the capital, and Gu Ning was very young this year. It was normal for a girl of 18 to have a boyfriend, but it was still unbelievable.
“Do you feel it’s hard to believe? She called me early this morning and shared the good news with me,” Master Leng said. “Believe it or not, Gu Ning is my grandson’s girlfriend, and we’re already talking about their engagement.”
After that, Master Leng hung up the call before Cai Qinghua could say another word. However, a few seconds later, his phone rang and the caller was Cai Qinghua.
Master Leng didn’t answer it right away, and waited for another few seconds.
It torture for Cai Qinghua to wait during these seconds.
“What? Didn’t you refuse to believe it?” Master Leng said.
“Is Gu Ning really your future grand daughter-in-law? Is she really Shaoting’s girlfriend?” Cai Qinghua asked.
“Right, do you want to learn more about her? You can search her name on the Internet yourself. Call me again when you’ve made your decision,” Master Leng said and hung up once more. In order to get that calligraphy, Master Leng made full use of Gu Ning.
However, it wasn’t a bad thing for Gu Ning, because Cai Qinghua would pay more attention to her because of his relations.h.i.+p with the Leng family.
Gu Ning was a student and a businesswoman, so she couldn’t stay in their school every day. Therefore, if she didn’t have connections, it would be inconvenient for her to run her companies in the future, because although Gu Ning had indeed achieved a lot, the Capital University was a top university in their country.
Cai Qinghua immediately searched Gu Ning’s name on the Internet, and after reading the news about her, he was totally shocked.
He thought that Gu Ning was already unbelievable when she got the full score, but it turned out that she had done a lot of amazing things before.
