142 Re-interview
Chen Min hesitated for a while before finally saying, “We want you to go to the principal with us. After all, you weren’t the only one Shan Xing humiliated just now. We don’t believe that she’s that ‘mathematical genius’, let alone understand what right she has to be guaranteed admission to the Capital University.”
“That’s right,” Li Xiao echoed. “And we all know that even the principal and the mayor have to give you face. The principal won’t patronize us if you come with us.”
...Shan Yue originally did not want to get involved in so many things. She did not care who the title of “mathematical genius” landed on. However, after tonight, Shan Yue did not want Shan Xing to obtain this guaranteed spot so easily. Finally, she nodded. “Sure. I’ll go with you.”
Late at night, Chen Yan was busy in his office with the recent college entrance examination. Just as Chen Yan was about to rest for a moment, there was a knock on the door.
“Who’s so blind to come when I’m resting?” Chen Yan muttered and said impatiently, “Come in.”
The door opened and the students swarmed in, quickly filling the office. Chen Yan was about to reprimand them when he saw from the corner of his eye that Shan Yue was also among this group of students. His expression immediately changed and he said with a gentle attitude and a smile. “What’s wrong, children? It’s so late. Why are you here?”
Seeing that no one was speaking, Chen Yan said, “What happened? If someone bullies you, just say it. I’ll back you up!”
Hence, everyone nudged Yu Hao. Seeing this, Yu Hao took a step forward and said, “Principal, we want to ask if Shan Xing is that ‘mathematical genius’?”
Chen Yan did not expect the students to come here in the middle of the night to ask this. “Student Shan Xing did look for me and say that she’s the ‘mathematical genius’ online. She also took out those draft papers to prove the calculation process.”
Yu Hao quickly asked, “Then was Shan Xing really guaranteed to be sent to the Capital University?”
“The Capital University did send someone to interview Shan Xing. She also passed the interview.” Chen Yan thought for a moment before saying this. If not for Shan Yue standing here, he would not have been able to answer anything tonight.
After hearing this, the office exploded.
“What Shan Xing said is actually true. She’s really guaranteed admission.”
“I envy her. It’s Capital University.”
The students began to discuss, but Chen Min was the first to stand up and question, “Why? If Shan Xing is that mathematical genius, why can’t she even get into the top ten of the grade in the school’s monthly exam?”
“Indeed, Principal. This is why we’re here today.” Yu Hao, who had always been calm, also said, “With our daily interaction and Shan Xing’s math results, I find it hard to believe that she can solve a question that even Senior Lin Xiao from the Capital University can’t.”
Shan Yue, who was standing at the side and watching, thought that if she said that she had solved that question now, no one would believe her. She had to admit that this was really a society that judged people by their appearance.
However, since she was here to watch the show, the bigger the commotion, the better. At least, she would have something to watch.
“Then what do everyone want to do?” Under the pressure of the students’ public opinion, Chen Yan had no choice but to ask.
Chen Min took the lead and shouted, “We request a re-interview for Shan Xing. We don’t believe that she can pass the interview of Capital University!”
After hearing this, Chen Yan clearly looked embarrassed. Hence, he had an idea and turned to Shan Yue. “Shan Yue, what do you think we should do?”
Chen Yan thought to himself that Shan Xing was Shan Yue’s biological sister after all. Although their relationship did not seem to be good, he could not figure out Shan Yue’s intentions for a while. He could throw this hot potato to Shan Yue to prevent him from taking responsibility later.
When Shan Yue heard this, she could not help but smile bitterly in her heart. The principal was smart to throw the question to her at this time.
