Why don't you believe I'm a reincarnated person?

Chapter 64 The Dust Settles

"You're a very talented young woman, congratulations!"

"If Ye Kai hadn't told me about this, Peking University might have missed out on a dark horse."

"The song you sang, 'GG,' is quite interesting. It's currently very popular, and young people really like it. Our school also needs energetic young people like you to join us."

When Professor Huang from Peking University called to contact her, he made a point of joking with Shen Jiayi.

"Thank you, teacher!"

"I will continue to work hard and strive for better results in the college entrance examination to realize my dream of visiting Weiming Lake!"

Shen Jiayi thanked the other party with a choked voice.

"Then I wish you all the best in achieving your dreams!"

Teacher Huang congratulated her again and then hung up the phone.

Shen Jiayi quickly followed the link provided and opened her email on her phone. She then saw the candidate confirmation notice sent by the Peking University Independent Enrollment Committee and finally felt relieved.

This dramatic turn of events truly sent her soaring to the bottom and then soaring to the top, a thrilling experience akin to riding a rollercoaster.

Only she herself can truly understand the anxieties and uncertainties she experienced.

"I'm so hurt."

"I'm clearly the absolute number one at Xinghua No.1 High School, so why am I the only one who didn't receive a candidate notification?"

"How embarrassing."

After congratulating Jiajia, Little Fish felt very depressed.

"Little Fish Sister".

"How about we treat you to a fancy meal as compensation?"

At this moment, Miss Shen's mood brightened again, and all the negative energy dissipated. She immediately expressed her intention to do something for Little Fish to comfort her wounded heart.

"I can't eat anymore, I absolutely can't eat anything!"

"Look, my tummy has gotten so chubby!"

"Since arriving in the capital, I've gained a full three and a half pounds!"

"How about we postpone this meal until we get back to Xinghua City?"

Chen Xiaoyu pinched her belly through her clothes, made a worried face, and said to Shen Jiayi.

"Is there?"

"You can't tell at all."

Ye Kai leaned closer to examine her closely and indicated that he did not see any signs that she had grown into a fat fish.

"Go! Go! Go!"

"Shameless! Your head is practically pressed against the little fish's chest!"

Shen Jiayi stretched out a hand and pushed Ye Kai's head away, preventing him from getting close to Chen Xiaoyu, with a look of disgust on her face.

At noon, Shen Jiayi couldn't help but call her parents to share the good news.

Normally, once she receives the notification letter for the independent admission selection test, as long as her grades remain the same, she has essentially secured a spot at Peking University.

……

"Really?"

"Are you sure this is a candidate notification letter issued by the Peking University Independent Enrollment Selection Committee?"

Director Jiang was pleasantly surprised to receive a call from her daughter.

Along with the surprise, there was also a sense of insecurity.

Since entering her senior year of high school, Shen Jiayi has indeed brought them surprise after surprise. Her target university has changed from striving to enter the bottom-tier 985 university, Minzu University, to aiming for the top 2 universities in Beijing.

What's most shocking is that she actually succeeded this time and received a candidate notification from the Peking University Independent Enrollment Committee.

After confirming it several times, Director Jiang wished he could buy 100,000 firecrackers right now, set them off for him, and then go to Old Shen's ancestral graves to burn incense for three days.

For ordinary families like theirs, having a student admitted to one of the top two universities in Beijing is a source of immense pride for the whole family. The city government will offer special rewards, making it a truly great honor.

"Clang!"

The sound of the door opening came from outside; it was Shen Mingsun returning.

"Old Shen?"

"Didn't you say you were going to receive some people from higher up? Why are you back at noon?"

Director Jiang ran out holding his phone and was quite surprised to see that Mayor Shen, who was usually very busy, had gone home early. He asked her a question.

"The inspection team changed its itinerary at the last minute and went straight to the neighboring county."

"As for when they will come to Xinghua City, we'll wait for your notification. I'll take this opportunity to go home and get some sleep."

Shen Mingsun looked somewhat tired. He took off his coat, hung it on the hanger, and lay listlessly on the sofa, starting to browse the news on his phone.

He frowned, clearly not quite understanding what it meant that the inspection team had suddenly moved to the neighboring county.

Was it dissatisfaction with their preparations for Xinghua City, or was it due to interference from other aspects?

Mayor Shen felt he wouldn't be able to sleep soundly at night until he found out the inside story of this matter.

For these grassroots cadres, any unexpected event could be the result of the combined forces of countless struggles behind the scenes, and they cannot afford to be careless in the slightest.

"Old Shen, I have some good news for you!"

"Jiajia passed the independent selection test. Guess which school she received an offer of admission from?"

No matter what Shen Mingsun was thinking, Director Jiang was very excited. He sat down and pressed Shen Mingsun's shoulders to relax his muscles, and then asked him to guess the riddle.

"Well?"

"You received the candidate notification?!"

"Hahaha! My daughter is really amazing! Let me guess which school she got a place as a candidate for!"

Upon hearing this, Mayor Shen's brows immediately relaxed, and he grinned from ear to ear, bursting into laughter.

Shen Jiayi submitted applications to three schools, and Mayor Shen was aware of this.

However, Mayor Shen never considered Peking University because it was too difficult and the competition was extremely fierce. He did not believe that his daughter had the ability or luck to get into Peking University.

The Minzu University was originally his daughter's for the taking, and Mayor Shen felt that if that were the option, his wife, Director Jiang, wouldn't be so happy.

Then the answer is obvious: it must be Minzu University, which ranks among the top 5 in the country!

Although Minzu University may not be as prestigious as the top two universities in Beijing, it is still a very high-level institution. If my daughter gets a candidacy for Minzu University, it will certainly be something to celebrate.

Thinking of this, Mayor Shen's previous worry about the inspection team changing its route suddenly turned into a bright and cheerful mood, and he felt a great sense of relief.

"I never expected this!"

"That's wonderful! Jiajia actually got the candidate qualification for Minzu University!"

Mayor Shen was certain of his decision, and then smiled and said to his wife.

"What Minzu University? It's Peking University, Peking University!"

"Old Shen, your daughter has been accepted as a candidate for Peking University!"

"Your Shen family's ancestral graves are emitting auspicious smoke!"

Director Jiang looked dissatisfied and simply revealed the answer directly.

Peking University?!

"Really?!"

Upon hearing this news, even Mayor Shen, who is usually calm and collected, couldn't sit still.

He wanted to speak with his daughter and see the candidate qualification notice issued by the school in person.

Otherwise, I cannot feel at ease.

Then, Mayor Shen learned the complicated details of the matter from his daughter.

Upon hearing about the grievances her daughter had suffered, even a refined gentleman like Shen Mingsun couldn't help but change his expression.

"Director Jiang, please don't associate with those unreliable trainees anymore."

After Mayor Shen hung up the phone, he made a very serious request to Director Jiang.

"This is outrageous!"

Director Jiang was also hearing about the Song family's arrogant behavior for the first time. She was so angry that she trembled and almost called her classmate in the training course to give her a good scolding.

"At this moment, it is not advisable to cause trouble."

At the critical moment, Mayor Shen remained clear-headed and stopped the impulsive Director Jiang in time.
