Chapter 53: Special Enrollment

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ye Sui’s results were far below ideal, but she could enter the Imperial Capital

University. Who knew how many transactions had gone on in the background? Ye Yao had not exposed her, and yet she was being exposed by Ye Sui? This world was too strange.

Ye Yao crossed her arms and looked at Ye Sui calmly. “So?”

“Ye Yao, you’re really shameless,” Ye Sui said. “You spent money to get into

Imperial Capital University, right? Since you’re on such good terms with Gao

Qiao. Did he get you in? Your methods are really impressive.”

Ye Yao couldn’t be bothered with her. “That’s none of your business.”

Ye Yao and Ye Sui’s conversation was recorded by someone and posted online.

It was fine if someone like Ye Yao, who relied on connections to enter Imperial Capital University, was not discovered, but if found out, she would have to face everyone’s condemnation. The netizens’ comments were very unpleasant.

There were remarks that given Ye Yao’s good looks, she must have relied on a man to get a place. Someone even called the principal, Zhou Banzheng, of the Imperial Capital University. The caller was a reporter, and made a live call. The reporter asked, “Principal Zhou, Imperial Capital University has been established for 90 years and has always admitted students based on results. We understand that there’s a female freshman enrolled in your school who did not take the college entrance examination. What are your views on this?”

On the other end of the phone, Zhou Banzheng said, “I already know about this matter. We will investigate it thoroughly and give everyone an explanation. Imperial Capital University has always been fair and strict. The school focuses on teaching and education. We definitely won’t allow things like enrollment through the back door. If this is true, we will dismiss the student for entry through non-compliant means.”

The reporter quickly said, “Alright, Principal Zhou. We believe that the school will give the public an explanation.”

At this point, Zhou Banzheng suddenly asked, “By the way, what’s that student’s name? I’ve only been made aware of such a matter, but no one has told me that student’s name.”

The reporter hesitated before saying, “I think her name is Ye Yao?”

“Ah?” Zhou Banzheng was stunned for a moment. “Ye Yao? She’s a student whom I had specially recruited.” Having said this, Zhou Banzheng smiled. “If the person in question is Ye Yao, then I can provide an explanation now. Ye Yao was a student in S City last year. Her score for the college entrance examination last year met our school’s requirements. Moreover, she scored full marks for her Chinese paper. Everyone knows that the Chinese paper in S City is exceptionally difficult. Hence I definitely won’t let go of such a student. However, at that time, she rejected my invitation for some personal reasons. I heard that she went overseas to study. However, she wanted to return to her home country to study this year, so she sent me an email. I agreed, and hence she became a freshman at Imperial Capital University. Ye Yao is an outstanding student. She entered Imperial Capital University without taking the college entrance examination. According to what you said online, the person who got Ye Yao in through the backdoor… might be me?”

Silence.

After a long time, the reporter stammered, “I see. If that’s the case, I think I understand why. After all, you did make a few public comments that it was a pity you hadn’t been able to enrol a certain student from S City. I didn’t think this person you were referring to was Ye Yao. Congratulations then, Principal Zhou for your success.

The Chinese paper in S City had reached the highest level of difficulty in history last year. Zhou Banzheng, who was in the literature field, reckoned that 120 out of a possible 150 marks would be the highest score for a student. The truth was similar to what Zhou Banzheng had expected. Last year, when the results of S City’s college entrance examination were released, there were only two candidates who scored more than 110 marks for the Chinese paper. One of them was Ye Yao, who scored a full 150 marks! Even now, Ye Yao’s answer script carrying full marks was sitting in Zhou Banzheng’s drawer. Whether it was the composition or other sections, her answers were incomparably perfect.

They were even better than the standard answers.

Zhou Banzheng was in the literature field to begin with. No one understood Ye

Yao’s talent better than him. Last year, in order to offer Ye Yao a place in the Imperial Capital University, he personally made a trip to S City. Unfortunately, he did not manage to convince Ye Yao. It was only this year that Ye Yao took the initiative to contact him and asked if she could enroll at Imperial Capital University. Zhou Banzheng immediately agreed and applied for special admission for Ye Yao.

The matter came to a conclusion. The students who knew the truth looked at Ye Yao with respect. They were all new students who had just taken the college entrance examination this year. They had also tried last year’s questions. S City’s paper was abnormally tough, especially the Chinese paper..
