CHAPTER 74: CHAPTER 56: DID YOU MAKE THIS YOURSELF? [REQUEST FOR MONTHLY TICKETS]

Old Chen’s heart was soaring, and his eyes were filled with contentment.

But as they sat down drinking, the two teachers began talking strangely...

Old Chen was feeling a bit restless.

This... I’d heard before that anything concerning He’an Bai Niao would turn into a rivalry, but didn’t expect it to be true!

Ah, students being too excellent can really be a headache!

...

The sweet burden gradually grew heavier, and when Chu River arrived, Old Chen didn’t know why but he let out a heavy sigh of relief.

The teacher from He’an Academy even jokingly asked:

"Chu River, I communicated with your homeroom teacher last night, and he said your desire was very strong; you definitely want to go to White Bird."

"But I, by nature, have a spirit of exploration. Here I am, rushing overnight, just to hear from you—what advantages do you think White Bird Academy has over us?"

White Bird Academy’s engineering is very strong, but their science is somewhat weaker compared to He’an.

And He’an prides itself on free-spirited thinking, flourishing in both arts and sciences.

So the teacher was genuinely curious, why so determined?

Chu River pondered for a moment.

Old Chen looked at her familiar serious expression, recalling the reporter’s interview in the morning, and his temple throbbed slightly.

Before he could react, the young girl had already started to speak:

"Teacher, it’s not about the school’s advantages."

"The main thing is me; I’m naturally inclined to fight. Anything that can be resolved with violence, I don’t want to rely on other methods—He’an sounds too peaceful, I’m afraid I might feel out of place."

Let alone whether it’s reasonable for a student, a top scorer, a beautiful girl to say she loves fighting, just speaking of the name—

This!

He’an Academy feels wrongly accused!

Their school’s debate team, science competitions, sports contests... they’re clearly superior to White Bird!

White Bird is only a bit outstanding in engineering, balanced in other aspects, where does it sound like they’re good for fighting!

Also, the name He’an Academy doesn’t mean they’re very peaceful; it’s because the founder had this name.

Just like White Bird can’t fly!

He attempted to explain, but seeing White Bird Academy’s teacher laughing heartily, and the young girl calmly sitting there, he couldn’t speak the words he intended.

Ah.

Ah...

Ah!

Alright then.

Since the recruitment didn’t succeed, the teacher from He’an Academy won’t linger here much longer—there are so many good students globally, they too have a heavy task.

Meanwhile, the teacher from White Bird is refreshed, evidently feeling he has the upper hand, looking at Chu River with a kindly expression:

"Student, you have an eye! I can tell you have an affinity with our academy, which department are you planning to apply for?"

Chu River: "..."

Indeed, she hadn’t really thought about it.

Anyway, she can apply anywhere, learn anything, no need to think ahead!

A confident academic achiever jpg

Moreover, choosing a department isn’t hard either.

Chu River directly took out her phone: "I’ll search online."

The admissions officer who was originally planning to introduce the school thoroughly but didn’t get the chance to: "..."

Well... that works too.

But student, don’t you think this is a bit too hasty?

And as Chu River spoke, she started searching on her phone, easily making a decision in less than a minute:

"This engineering physics then."

Teacher: "..."

Old Chen: "..."

Ah, such a flamboyant personality isn’t really great either.

This child, could she be overcompensating?

Old Chen held his teacup, falling into yet another round of worry.

...

In this respect, it was the teacher from White Bird who took a more open perspective.

—As long as you get the person first, everything else can be discussed later.

...

The teacher smiled particularly brightly:

"Chu River, before I came, I consulted with the principal about your situation—it’s like this, our school has the obligation to provide student loans and various aids to those in need."

Look at that phrasing—obligation.

Think again about the stingy principal—tsk tsk tsk.

"...Additionally, each semester the school issues scholarships of different levels, and if there are any major breakthroughs or achievements within the school, we..."

"Thank you, teacher, that’s not necessary."

Chu River calmly replied.

"I don’t lack money now."

Speaking of which, she remembered something, quickly took out a small box from her pocket and handed it to Old Chen.

"Old Chen, take this back and give it to Aunt."

"You child..."

Old Chen was already accustomed to her way of saying things, and didn’t feel anything unusual at the moment, whereas the teacher from White Bird listened on the side, feeling relieved with a bit of ease.

—Being able to get along with the homeroom teacher to such an extent, this top scorer Chu River is definitely not just a bookworm.

Frankly, among the Engineering Physics department’s crowd of researchers, there aren’t many talents like her!
