Many people told Xu Lan that it was such a pity Xia Zhe had married a wife who was from the countryside. With Xia Zhe’s current status and ability, he could have easily married the daughter of a high-ranking executive and that would definitely help in his future promotion. Even up till now, there were still people who said such things in front of Xu Lan.
In the beginning, Xu Lan felt the same way, but from the looks of it now, their family was actually the one who benefited from Qiao Mei marrying into the family.
If not for Qiao Mei, their family would have been long gone. Qiao Mei had helped their family time and time again, pulling various family members back from the brink of death. It was truly all Qiao Mei e s efforts.
Qiao Mei and Li Gui prepared a lot of vacuum-packed food for ease of transportation. After everything was ready, the big rescue team set off on their journey.
Qiao Mei and Xu Lan could only stay at home and wait for the news. It was difficult to walk in the snow. If Qiao Mei went, a fall could easily lead to miscarriage. She was already in the advanced stage of pregnancy and any accident could easily cause the deaths of both mother and child.
Qiao Mei stuck a small vine seed into the treads of each tire on the rescue truck. By the time the team reached the highlands, these seeds would have germinated and the vines would wrap around the tires, increasing the friction of the tires on the road and making it less slippery.
A few days passed, but there was still no news from Xia Wen. They did not know how Xia He was doing. Every day, Qiao Mei sat in the courtyard and stared at the main door, worried that she would miss out on any telegrams sent by Xia Wen.
“Mei Mei, I’ll sit here and wait. Go to your room and rest,” Li Gui said as she looked at Qiao Mei with heartache.
“I won’t be able to sit still even if I go to the room. I might as well wait here in the courtyard,” Qiao Mei said with a sigh.
Li Gui looked at the calendar and said, “Oh! You should change and go to school. Isn’t today the day you submit the university application?”
Qiao Mei had been so anxious recently that she had forgotten about this matter. She asked the Xia family chauffeur to send her to school. She had lent her car to Xia Wen, as it was made safer for him to travel using a jeep on the mountain roads.
In the school, it was very noisy all along the corridor since everyone was
enthusiastically discussing which school they wanted to go to. The results of the college entrance examination would not be announced yet, only the students’ rankings. If one’s family had enough influence, could secretly find out how many points one had scored.
Therefore, regardless of whether they managed to make it or not, everyone had to come to school to submit the university application. Of course, at the end of the day, some people would go home happily while others would have to take the examination again next year.
As soon as Qiao Mei arrived at the school, she attracted everyone’s attention. Many people went up to her and asked, “Qiao Mei, which school do you want to go to?”
“Capital University,” Qiao Mei said without any hesitation.
No one was surprised. After all, with Qiao Mei’s score, it would be strange if she did not choose either Capital University or Huatian University. Given that she was the best student in the city, it was ridiculous for her to go to a lousy university.
When Qiao Mei reached the classroom, she saw Xu Jiao and Xu Man. Xu Jiao did not look too good. Apparently, she had forgotten to write her name on the last paper. If so, she would have lost those points and her already precarious result would be even more dismal.
Xu Man, on the other hand, looked fresh and exuded confidence. Qiao Mei came to their side and asked, “Have you both decided?” “l want to go to Huatian University,” Xu Man said.
“l… I don’t know…” Xu Jiao said shakily.
Qiao Mei nodded in understanding. She went to Wu Duo and asked, “How is it? Have you decided where you want to go?”
“Capital University, of course!” Wu Duo winked at Qiao Mei as he spoke. His main goal in getting into university was to teach that indecent couple a lesson and take back everything that belonged to him. As if he would even consider going to some unknown lowly-rated university?
In the past, he would not even dare to think about it. Now, he could choose any school he wanted. It was all Qiao Mei’s credit.
Among the four students whom Qiao Mei taught, three of them wanted to go to Capital University and one to Huatian University. These were the universities that were ranked first and second in the country, which further confirmed Qiao Mei t s ability.
Wu Li brought the application forms and the list of supplementary rules and regulations to the classroom. The students would be completing the application forms without knowing their results. They would have to predict how they had scored. Then, they would have to guess the cutoff score for admission to each school. Today, everyone would only know their ranking in the capital.
Qiao Mei, Wu Duo and the other three were not worried at all. They were definitely within the top 10 in the capital. Even if Capital University was only taking in 10 students, they would definitely be on the list..
