268: Battle Of The Elite Schools

Battle Of The Elite Schools

The ceremony lasted from 9 am to 12 noon. Ye Jian kept a smile on her face for the entire three hours. She felt that her cheeks were sore from smiling.1

When the ceremony ended, she was still unable to leave. She went with Principal Chen to chat with the leaders of the City Bureau of Education before walking towards the cafeteria.

Secretary Wu had already started probing Ye Jian on which school she was going to apply to. He highly recommended the Municipal No.1 Middle School. "Although its environment is not as good as the Provincial No.1 Middle School, it is the first school that offers internet access for its students, also…"

Secretary Wu was not the only person talking about Municipal No.1 Middle School. The other leaders who were walking alongside her introduced the Municipal No.1 Middle School to her too. It seemed like they wanted Ye Jian to remain in this city and not get snatched by other provincial cities.

Principal Cao of the Provincial No.1 Middle School finally managed to finish his conversation with some high-ranking officers. When he walked over to Ye Jian, he heard her saying with a smile, "Actually, I have no intention of going to the province to study. Firstly, it is too far. Secondly, there is no need for it."

"Studying depends on ourselves. Whether we can get into our dream university or not depends on ourselves too. I don't want to go to a school that is too far away. I will just study in town."

Principal Cao sighed. He gave up his intention of speaking to Ye Jian. He said to Mrs. Zhu, "She gave up the chance to study in the capital city. Now, she gave up the opportunity to study in the provincial city. Sigh, let's go. This girl is a piece of gold. She will shine wherever she goes."

In order to be able to go home easily, Ye Jian chose to study in town.

Just as they were about to reach the cafeteria, Ye Jian saw Han Zheng carrying his camera around his neck and standing under the shade of a tree. He had one hand in his pocket. He seemed to be waiting for someone.

Waiting for someone? Ye Jian couldn't help but look behind her. The towering figure was nowhere in sight.

… He was not waiting for Major Xia.

Han Zheng smiled as he walked over. Did this girl think that he came with Major Xia?

The moment he moved, Ye Jian immediately said something to Principal Chen and rushed forward to meet him.

Her quick reaction caused Han Zheng to stop in his tracks. He had to give up his plan of asking Principal Chen about her life. He stood under the sunlight and waited for her to come.

She was a vigilant girl. She didn't like people coming close to her. From a psychological point of view, it meant that she lacked a sense of security.

It was understandable. Her parents died when she was young and she got tricked by her uncle's family. It was a miracle that she didn't have a pessimistic view of life.

"Major Xia said that you will come and look for me. However, you didn't come. I have no other intentions. I just want to see if the person who rejected Major Xia's offer has anything to tell me or Major Xia."

So that is why he is here. Ye Jian smiled. "You are going there too?"

The City Bureau of Education was huge. Han Zheng didn't bring Ye Jian to the cafeteria. Instead, he brought her to a car with a military car plate. "I'm not sure yet. However, it shouldn't be a problem. Come on, let's have a meal outside. You can write a letter and let me take it to him."

Ye Jian got into the car quietly. She didn't say anything even after getting off the car.

Han Zheng glanced at the silent girl as he drove. What a composed person. There were no emotions on her face.

"You didn't go that time but he rushed over the moment he got off the plane. Young lady, many ladies in the capital wants to have a date with him. Yet, you rejected him. Are you trying to become the enemy of all the ladies from the elite families in the capital city?"
