Chapter 35: 035 She won’t go to First High School

Lin Yue was hot-tempered, and he slammed the table as he stood up, “Sister, I’m going to tell grandma right now that we don’t want Ye Wanlan to come to Jiangcheng No.1 Middle School.”

Lin Qin fumed in silence, not saying a word.

“Wait a minute, something’s not right.” Lin Yue walked to the door then stopped, “Jiangcheng has so many schools, why does she insist on coming to No.1 Middle School? Even if she wanted a good school, wouldn’t an international school do?”

Ye Wanlan dropped out of school for three years and has to start over in the first year of high school, and she doesn’t have the ability to study, so why bother enrolling again?

“Ah, sister, I get it now!” Lin Yue had a sudden realization, “You just won an award at a classical music exhibition recently, and our main family finally remembered your name. She wants to ride on your coattails to get back to the main family in Yunjing!”

Lin Qin thought the same, “Impossible, I will not agree.”

She knew Lin Qingwen and Madam Lin had always been trying to please her because they wanted to leverage her to return to the main family in Yunjing.

She detested those who lacked ability and resorted to opportunistic tactics, just like Lin Qingwen and his wife, and Ye Wanlan was no different.

“Of course it’s impossible to take her with us, but I’m afraid she might coax grandma into a daze and have her way,” Lin Yue scoffed coldly, “Mom’s soft-hearted too, and if she convinces the two of them, you won’t be able to say no either.”

Lin Qin became even more irritated and randomly plucked the strings of her zither.

“Forget it, I don’t dare to speak ill of Ye Wanlan in front of grandma,” Lin Yue sat down again and muttered gloomily, “Last time, just because my aunt said one thing, grandma punished her to kneel in the ancestral hall. If it were me, I might even have to endure the family discipline. What on earth makes grandma so biased in her favor?”

“It is indeed very strange…” Lin Qin frowned slightly.

Lin Weilan wasn’t a person who couldn’t tell right from wrong, and Ye Wanlan’s behavior during this period did indeed differ greatly from the past four years.

Lin Qin secretly took note and planned to observe Ye Wanlan more.

Saturday morning, Jiangcheng No.7 Middle School.

Admissions office.

“Director, I really can’t thank you enough,” said Lin Huaijin with deep gratitude, “otherwise I wouldn’t know what to do if the child couldn’t go to school.”

“Mr. Lin, you’re too kind,” said the director of the admissions office with a beaming smile, “You and the child trust our school, so of course we also trust the child. The choice is mutual, and the rewards are double!”

No.7 Middle School was desperate for students; they hadn’t met their enrollment targets for three consecutive years, and it was a headache for him as well.

“But Mr. Lin, for the convenience of class assignment, Student Ye still needs to undergo a test for enrollment,” the director of admissions continued, “Please make sure to inform the child in advance.”

Lin Huaijin: “Not a problem, bring on the toughest questions!”

Ye Wanlan can score full marks on the mock tests from No.1 Middle School, so what high school question could possibly stump her?

Admissions director: “?”

Was this uncle bearing a grudge against his niece, deliberately setting her up?

Lin Huaijin was overjoyed, and after leaving, he called Lin Weilan, “Hello, mom, just letting you know, Ah Lan isn’t going to No.1 Middle School. I’ve already confirmed it with No.7 Middle School, she can enroll next week.”

Lin Weilan nodded, “That’s right, it’s the same wherever Ah Lan goes.”

After ending the call, Lin Huaijin walked a few steps and suddenly realized he had not mentioned Ye Wanlan’s level of proficiency in physics to Lin Weilan.

How could Lin Weilan have said something like that?

Mysterious.

“Ah Lan, your enrollment issue has been resolved,” Lin Huaijin nodded to Ye Wanlan, who was waiting outside the school gate, “Let’s go, uncle is treating you, we’ll go out for lunch in a bit.”

Lin Huaijin drove the car while the two returned from the suburbs to inside the second ring road.

“I’ll go reserve a cake first, you go call your aunt and little brother.”

“Got it, uncle.”

Ye Wanlan wore a sun hat that covered half her face, her long hair swaying in the sunlight as she moved.

“Miss Ye, I’ve finally been waiting for you,” said Bing He, who was crouched down counting ants. His eyes lit up on seeing her, and he immediately stood up, “I’m here on behalf of the young… gentleman to deliver your enrollment gift.”

“What gift?” Ye Wanlan raised an eyebrow.

Bing He hurriedly handed her a box, “The gentleman said if Miss Ye could give him a call back after receiving the gift, it would be even better.”

Ye Wanlan nodded, took the box with one hand, and dialed the number for the psychological counseling room with the other.

After one ring, the call was picked up.

The man’s voice, mixed with the static of the call and sounding slightly distorted, was nevertheless gentle and pleasant, “A modest gift to congratulate Miss Ye on her return to school, I hope Miss Ye likes it.”

“Thank you,” Ye Wanlan said with a faint smile, “but I’m already preparing to go to No.7 Middle School, and I’ll only have time for counseling on weekends.”

“Counseling calls are public, but mine is private. Miss Ye can contact me at any time, and I will always be waiting.” After hanging up the receiver, Yan Tingfeng turned his head, “No need to donate a building to No.1 Middle School now.”

Rong Yu jumped up, “What now, my dear boss? I just made the arrangements, why are you changing your mind again?”

“She’s going to No.7 Middle School, so the building will be donated to No.7 Middle School,” Yan Tingfeng said casually, “Pack up, you’re going to No.7 Middle School to be a psychological counselor.”

Rong Yu: “?”

In Yan Tingfeng’s eyes, was he just like a building that could be moved at will?!

He was about to throw a fit!

On the other side, at the headquarters building of Zhou Corporation.

After greeting the employees she knew, Sheng Yunyi entered the general manager’s office, “Hechen, do you have a moment? Could you accompany me to No.1 Middle School to retrieve a painting?”

“Of course,” Zhou Hechen said with a smile as he took her hand, “what painting did you send to No.1 Middle School this time?”

“The one for Gold Mountain Hotel. No.1 Middle School borrowed it for the art class students to study – it’s a good cause, so of course I didn’t refuse.”

“You’re kind-hearted. Let’s go, I’ll drive you.”

Thirty minutes later, the Maybach arrived at Jiangcheng No.1 Middle School.

It was class time, so the campus was very quiet.

“It’s in the comprehensive building’s art studio,” Sheng Yunyi said, “Hechen, this way.”

The two went up to the art studio on the third floor.

“Later, I’ll have to trouble you to accompany me to deliver it to Gold Mountain Hotel. I’ll buy you a meal as a—”

Clang—a sound rang out as Sheng Yunyi dropped her keys on the floor.

In the center of the art studio, the largest painting was slashed to pieces by a blade, completely beyond recognition.

Sheng Yunyi took a step back involuntarily, her voice trembling, “My painting, it was fine yesterday, how could it…”

“Who has been here from yesterday afternoon to now?” Zhou Hechen’s eyes sharpened, “Get me the surveillance footage, now!”

The person in charge of the comprehensive building was panicked and hurried to the surveillance room.

The comprehensive building was where the students engaged in integrated learning, and since No.1 Middle School paid great attention to the students’ mental health, they also had a psychological counseling room, a sandplay room, and more.

Zhou Hechen’s expression grew even darker, “Did you find it?”

“Mr. Zhou, the art studio has just been renovated; there’s no surveillance installed,” the person in charge said as he kept wiping sweat, “We can only look at the cameras by the third-floor staircase to see who passed by here, but there were quite a few people, to find out it will take some time…”

Zhou Hechen said coldly, “Less talking, more finding!”

“Yunyi!” Fang Qingya rushed over as well, “What’s going on, how did your painting end up like this?”

Sheng Yunyi’s head was lowered as she continually wiped away tears.

“Don’t worry, I will definitely help you get to the bottom of this,” Fang Qingya said as she looked at the surveillance screen with students in school uniforms passing back and forth.

How could they determine who it was?

“Wait!” Fang Qingya’s eyes were sharp, she noticed someone who was not in uniform, “Isn’t that Ye Wanlan? She’s not a student at No.1 Middle School, what is she doing here?”

Zhou Hechen’s expression turned extremely grim in an instant, “Bring Ye Wanlan to me right away!”

It must have been her!
