Chapter 277: Chapter 277 Special Recruitnt for Special Talents Chapter 277: Chapter 277 Special Recruitnt for Special Talents “Exactly, I just told you.” Lan Yu, brimming with enthusiasm, started explaining to Lu Sheng.
“The talent recruitnt policy targets two types of talents, the first type is what I just told you about, a high-difficulty exam for all-around talents, and the second type is for special talents.”
“Simply put, it’s for high school students who have achieved exceptionally in a certain field. As long as they get a recomndation from a top-notch big wig at Beijing University and Qing University after the college entrance exam, the university will lower the admission score needed for their specialized field by a hundred points.”
“After all, these geniuses who might be extraordinary in a certain field might not have great overall grades, or might be lopsided in their academic strengths. But special talents definitely deserve special treatnt, right?”
“Moreover, this special recruitnt has a particularly impressive feature, which is, since a big wig is definitely an industry expert, being recomnded by them ans entering the study program led by the big wig.”
“If you can build a good relationship with the big wig, you might even go straight from undergraduate to PhD and beco the big wig’s disciple—an opportunity everyone dreams of but is almost unreachable.”
“However, the threshold for this special recruitnt is also very high; those who haven’t received nationally recognized awards with substantial prestige wouldn’t dare to recomnd themselves to the big wig.”
“But Shengsheng, you are different.”
“Previously, you won first place at the National Piano Competition in China, which is the highest accolade in the dostic piano sector. And Professor Wu Anmin from the Arts Departnt of Beijing University pays close attention to this competition every year.”
“The talent recruitnt job has just started this year. Shengsheng, if you send an email to Professor Wu, introduce yourself, and express your hope for his recomndation, I am sure the spot will be yours this year.”
“Although you haven’t had a rich resu or won many awards beside this one, you are Rosy, and that performance was so astonishing, it must have left a deep impression on Professor Wu.”
“I think Professor Wu would definitely be willing to recomnd you!”
Once Lan Yu ntioned this, Lu Sheng recalled overhearing others in her class discussing prior to the piano competition.
No wonder everyone in the class was saying that as long as Lu Qianrou could win first place in the competition, this year’s talent recruitnt slot from Beijing University could very likely be hers.
And no wonder Lu Qianrou took the competition so seriously, even going as far to skip school and lock herself at ho to practice piano because the competition date was moved up.
That was the reason.
Lu Qianrou wanted to enter the entertainnt industry and beco a star; having a background from the Arts Departnt of Beijing University would undoubtedly distinguish her from the rest.
However, frankly speaking, this wasn’t particularly appealing to Lu Sheng.
Even if she did send an email to Professor Wu and he was willing to recomnd her, she originally had no intention of studying in the Arts Departnt at university.
Thus, she replied to Lan Yu: “I don’t plan on studying an arts major, so getting a recomndation doesn’t an much to .”
“For the final exams, I will just take them normally. The exam is on Thursday, and I should be able to return to school the day after tomorrow, Wednesday, which is just in ti.”
Lan Yu imdiately replied:
“!! The day after tomorrow?!”
“I can finally see you, I definitely won’t be late on Wednesday morning!”
Lu Sheng could feel Lan Yu’s excitent through the screen.
After all, in Class A, aside from her, only Lu Youming, Han Jing, and Huo Yu could really talk to Lan Yu.
But Lu Youming was always aloof, and Huo Yu was reticent, making conversations with them almost like talking to oneself.
Having been ho for over two months, Lan Yu and Han Jing must have grown tired of each other, so they were eager for her to return to school soon.
After chatting with Lan Yu, Lu Sheng called Juanjuan.
At that mont, Juanjuan was working at a dessert shop.
But when Juanjuan received the call from Lu Sheng and heard that Chen Shu had lost his mory, she was shocked and quickly asked what had happened.
It was hard to explain last night’s events in a few words, so Lu Sheng sent the Li Family’s address to Juanjuan, asking her to co over.
Within an hour, the Li Family’s butler arrived in the living room with Juanjuan, who was still wearing her dessert shop uniform. As soon as she saw Lu Sheng, she imdiately ran over, her cute face full of worry, “Sister, what exactly happened?”
“Sister, did you et with older brother? How could he have amnesia? Sister, are you okay? Why do you look so pale?”
“I’m fine,” Juanjuan started with a string of questions, Lu Sheng looked at her, “Don’t worry for now, your brother is also here, in the guest room on the first floor.”
“I did et with him last night, and he told so things.”
Lu Sheng continued, “Although he said he didn’t want you to know those things, now he has amnesia, and we don’t know when his mory can be restored, or if it can ever be restored. So, I think it’s necessary for to tell you.”
Juanjuan was stunned, “Sister, you an…”
Over the next twenty minutes, Lu Sheng told Juanjuan about the remaining mories of last night, specifically what Chen Shu had ntioned about their parents.
Mother had an affair and was followed by older brother, mother’s lover was killed by older brother, on that rainy night, the diary where mother reminisced about her lover was discovered by father, mother was stabbed to death by father with a dagger…
And their true identity—turns out she and her brother were not true nobles, but illegitimate children born from their mother’s affair with a church priest from the slums.
With each piece of information Lu Sheng revealed, Juanjuan’s face grew paler and her mouth agape.
Later, hearing the reasons Chen Shu ntioned for imprisoning her, tears imdiately welled up in Juanjuan’s beautiful light green eyes.
Her lips trembled, “How, how could it be like this.”
“Sister, are you saying that brother… he actually did it… to protect ?”
“I don’t know,” Lu Sheng shook her head, “Your brother previously had another story for , so I can’t fully trust him anymore. Whether what he said is true or not, you’ll need to judge for yourself.”
Juanjuan took a deep breath, closed her eyes for a mont, and tears slid down her cheeks.
After a while, she recovered from the shock of learning the truth and nodded.
“It’s true,” Juanjuan said with red eyes, choking up, “What brother said is true.”
“Seeing older brother slit our father’s throat, I truly thought that brother had gone crazy and killed our parents.”
“I asked him why he did it, and he wouldn’t tell anything, so at that ti I wanted to seek help from the police and the royal family. He didn’t let go and locked in the room.”
“Later, because I jumped out from the upper floor, he locked in the underground confinent room. Afterward, indeed, because I threatened him with self-harm, he chained my hands and feet.”
“But I really did not know that the truth was like this…”
“No wonder I and my brother don’t resemble our father at all. I did not know my mother…”
As Chen Shu said that night, in Juanjuan’s heart, her mother was pure, beautiful, and loyal to her father.
This vastly revealing truth was too shocking for her, difficult to accept and a heavy blow.
It almost completely shattered and remodeled her understanding of the past many years.
However, a noble young lady living under others’ protection can never truly grow.
In Lu Sheng’s view, Juanjuan’s nature was too weak; this incident could perhaps be an opportunity for her growth.
“I’ve told you everything I know, also, just after your brother woke up, I told him a small lie.”
“I switched your experiences a bit, saying that he ca to Jiang City for tourism a few days ago and got abducted by human traffickers, and I rescued him, then you ca to Jiang City looking for him.”
“So, what you plan to do now, is up to you.” Lu Sheng looked at Juanjuan with a more serious tone than usual.
