Qin Hao: "I'm going to Jianghai University."
Du Wanrou's pretty face was startled, her heartbeat accelerated slightly, and she asked curiously, "Why?"
Qin Hao: "Because of you."
Du Wanrou's cheeks flushed slightly, thankfully they were chatting online, so Qin Hao couldn't see the color of her face.
He thought for a mont and said, "Jinhua and Chen University are Xuan Country's top institutions, you shouldn't delay your future because of .
In the future, when you have a career, you can find any kind of girl, even one better than ."
When Qin Hao saw what she said, he replied, "You make a lot of sense, but I don't know why I made this decision, maybe it's destiny."
Destiny?
Upon hearing his words, Du Wanrou's lips curved into a smile.
The things she had just said were both honest and a test to see if Qin Hao was truly sincere about her.
Of course, this couldn't completely prove anything, but it did prove a part.
Wan Rou asked curiously, "Do your parents agree?"
Qin Hao replied, "They respect my choice, and Jianghai University is also one of the top institutions. Although not as renowned as Jinhua and Chen University, it's still a very good school."
"Oh, what major are you planning to apply for?"
"Computer Science. You said it before, didn't you? If I get into Jianghai University, you'll give a chance."
Du Wanrou: "I need to think about that."
Qin Hao made a face, "Ah? When will you have thought it over?"
Du Wanrou: "I don't know."
...
After chatting for a while, Du Wanrou said she needed to rest, and Qin Hao lay down on his bed to sleep as well.
The next morning, Qin Hao didn't go to the roast duck shop. He got up after half-past ten and headed to school.
It was already sumr, but since Shuinan Province is at the southernmost end of Xuan Country, the climate isn't too hot, although it's still over twenty degrees.
The streets were filled with girls in miniskirts and ultra-short hot pants, their straight, slender legs attracting attention.
A few minutes later, Qin Hao arrived at the school gate and then continued walking a few dozen ters.
He stopped in front of a restaurant called Garden Restaurant, where Liu Xiu had already arrived early.
Seeing Qin Hao arrive, she hurried over, taking his hand, "Qin Hao, you've really brought honor to Changle Second Middle School this ti."
Qin Hao complinted with a smile on his face, "It's too kind of you to say that, teacher. It's mainly because of your great teaching."
Liu Xiu used to find Qin Hao displeasing no matter how she looked at him, but now her opinion of him was improving.
She said with a smile, "A lot of students have already arrived. You can go on in. They're in room 201 on the second floor."
No sooner had she finished speaking than a shiny new black Volkswagen Magotan stopped at the roadside.
Yuan Zhengxiang and Song Wei got out of the car.
When Liu Xiu saw them, her smile grew even more: "Yuan Zhengxiang did well in the exams this year. I have high hopes for you, you will definitely make a big splash in the future."
Hearing her words, Qin Hao disdainfully pursed his lips, confirming that the woman only had eyes for success.
At the sa ti, he also recognized the importance of money.
Yuan Zhengxiang's scores certainly couldn't compare to Qin Hao's, but Liu Xiu's attitude towards him was completely different from her attitude towards Qin Hao.
In the end, it all cos down to Yuan Zhengxiang's family wealth.
As for Qin Hao's prospects, whether he will achieve greatness or beco just another face in the crowd, no one can say.
...
Initially, his grades were indeed stunning, so much so that on the day the results were released, quite a number of people across the country knew his na.
But after a couple of days, when the excitent died down, there were still very few who knew of him.
He was just an ordinary high school graduate.
Yuan Zhengxiang glanced at Qin Hao beside him with a hint of disdain in his eyes and said to Liu Xiu with a smile, "You flatter , teacher."
Liu Xiu replied with a smile, "Zhengxiang, when you're successful in the future, don't forget your teacher and classmates. Help out whenever you can."
Yuan Zhengxiang assured her, "Don't worry, Teacher. I, Yuan Zhengxiang, am not the kind of person who forgets favors and violates morals."
Just then a black BMW pulled up, and Du Wanrou stepped out from the back seat, along with her family's butler, Mr. Lin.
Liu Xiu said with a smile, "Wan Rou is here too. It seems almost everyone has arrived, so let's go in."
Du Wanrou nodded slightly and then glanced at Qin Hao.
Yuan Zhengxiang moved closer to Du Wanrou, wanting to talk to her, but Qin Hao walked over and directly squeezed him aside.
He wanted to explode in anger, but rembering Qin Hao's fearso fighting ability, he gave up the idea.
The group entered a large private room on the second floor of the restaurant, which featured two tables already filled with quite a few classmates.
Qin Hao said to Du Wanrou, "Can I sit with you?"
Du Wanrou looked at him, neither denying nor agreeing, which was taken as tacit consent.
The two of them found empty chairs and sat down. Lin Kang didn't co in but stood at the entrance of the private room instead.
Yuan Zhengxiang had wanted to sit next to Du Wanrou, but seeing Qin Hao seated with her, a flash of anger crossed his eyes.
On the other side of Du Wanrou were Chen Shu and her group. Chen Shuhui and the others instantly understood the implication when they saw Qin Hao and Du Wanrou sitting together.
Liu Xiu stood in the center and said to everyone, "Now that everyone is here, I'll go order the dishes. You all chat for a bit; the food will be served shortly."
Yuan Zhengxiang glanced at Qin Hao, then stood up and said, "Teacher, let help you with the order. Today's al is on —I'm treating my classmates."
"Good, Xiang is so generous."
"Thanks, Xiang."
Everyone thanked him with smiling faces, and Yuan Zhengxiang waved his hand, "As long as you're happy, that's good. Today we should all just let loose, as we might not have the chance to gather like this again in the future."
"Yeah, let's have fun today!" a male student exclaid excitedly.
Many girls in the class looked at Yuan Zhengxiang with admiration in their eyes; he hadn't often been this generous back at school.
The dishes arrived quickly, alongside lots of beer and soft drinks. Their class advisor, Liu Xiu, even started drinking beer.
She raised her glass and drank with everyone, then toasted Yuan Zhengxiang separately.
Most of the girls were drinking soft drinks, but many also tried the beer, considering it was likely their last gathering.
With Liu Xiu taking the lead, nurous boys and girls went over to toast Yuan Zhengxiang.
Qin Hao sat there eating his food and sipping his drink, occasionally exchanging a few words with Du Wanrou, not mingling with others.
After dealing with many people and nearly finishing a bottle of beer, Yuan Zhengxiang looked over at Qin Hao sitting comfortably next to Du Wanrou, feeling rather annoyed inside.
He walked over to Qin Hao with a glass of beer, "Qin Hao, you are the top scorer in the national unified examination. I'm proud that our school has produced such a talented person. Let toast to you."
Qin Hao picked up his drink intending to drink, but Yuan Zhengxiang looked at him and said, "Are you looking down on ? I'm drinking beer and you're having a soft drink? Are you even a man?"
"Exactly, what's wrong with Qin Hao drinking so beer?"
"It seems like becoming top scorer has made Qin Hao look down on us!"
"Co on, Qin Hao, drink one for Xiang. It's not like it's hard liquor," a girl also chid in.
