Rebirth of the Millennial: Getting Rich After Parents Get Laid Off

Chapter 212 Admission Notice

After Zheng Yonghui's congratulatory phone call ended, the Shen family's phone rang non-stop for the rest of the day.

Students who rank in the top 2 in the province are undoubtedly highly outstanding. Top 2 universities and those just below them will likely compete for the top scorer or the top few students in the province.

But other schools accept all applications.

Especially in the local top-tier universities, the calls from 985 and 211 universities almost blew up the Shen family's phone.

Li Xunli kept hanging up with one person after another.

Shen Qingqing watched from outside as her mother, despite being exhausted from answering so many phone calls, insisted on continuing to answer each call.

I couldn't help but shake my head and click my tongue. That's vanity, huh?

It's all thanks to her daughter's ambition; otherwise, how could she satisfy her mother's vanity?

"You're so smart. You filled in your own mobile phone number as the contact number and then set your phone to reject calls from unknown numbers."

Wu Fangyi smiled and said, "I never intended for them to know."

"That might not work. By the time the school puts up the banners, the whole of Chaocheng will probably know about it."

It seems that every school in Chaocheng does the same thing: putting up banners to celebrate good results.

Shen Qingqing had been putting up banners since elementary school, and she did so again during her middle school entrance exam.

By the time this year's college admission notices are released, the high school banners will probably be up by then.

"We'll just have to wait it out. I don't want them constantly circling around in front of me." Wu Fangyi said calmly.

"But you reminded me that I need to go home a few times in the next couple of days to move all my things to the studio so it will be easier to hide there."

Shen Qingqing was stunned: "Huh? Then move to my place! Why go to the studio? The conditions there are so poor, it's not even a dormitory. Why would you go there?"

Wu Fangyi said helplessly, "No matter how much I declutter, I've lived here for so many years, and there's still a lot of stuff to pack and move out."

"So what if it's too big? That room is the same size as ours, isn't it enough for you to put everything in?" Shen Qingqing walked towards the only guest room in the house.

“That’s not what I meant…” Wu Fangyi followed Shen Qingqing toward the room where she was sleeping.

"I don't care if you are or not, just move in!" Shen Qingqing pushed open the door and arrogantly opened her arms.

Sunlight streamed in through the window, and a sudden gust of wind blew in, ruffling Shen Qingqing's hair and the hem of her dress.

The next day, Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi were taken back to school by Li Xunli.

Zheng Yonghui and the homeroom teacher of Rocket Class 2 were waiting for them in the office.

When they arrived at the office, they saw three other senior students there.

"Everyone's here, come on, sit down!" Zheng Yonghui brought over a few disposable paper cups and poured water for them one by one.

Normally, in previous years, it would have been the homeroom teacher who would have provided guidance to students on college application.

However, this year was somewhat unexpected, because strictly speaking, Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi were actually students of Zheng Yonghui and the homeroom teacher of Class 2, Grade 11 Rocket Class.

Fortunately, both of them had experience teaching graduating classes, so they simply handed over the students who came to the meeting with Shen Qingqing and her group to the two of them.

"The reason I called all five of you over is because all five of you scored over 700."

"It's still a pity that our school didn't have a top scorer in the college entrance examination this year."

"However, Fangyi's college entrance examination score has already broken the record for the highest college entrance examination score in our school's history!"

"She's also the top student in her grade this year!"

"Qingqing was a bit weaker this time, only ranking second in the grade."

Zheng Yonghui sat down. "Then, because this is the first year that we are taking the national exam, the school specially asked the teachers to hold a meeting with you to give you some advice on filling out your college application forms."

Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi showed no surprise.

After all, it's Jinzhong High School, so it's normal for them to have three to five students who score over 700 on the college entrance exam every year.

The class of 680 and 690 is almost entirely composed of rockets.

However, the other three students in the senior year were not as calm as Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi.

Almost everyone couldn't help but look towards Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi.

The whole grade knew that the two of them had been secretly assigned to audit classes in the senior year's top science class.

They didn't think much of it at first, after all, the top scorer in the city's high school entrance exam had been studying at Jinzhong for many consecutive years, and there was one in the top science class.

What shocked them was that these two should have been in their second year of high school, but in just one semester, they adapted to the teaching methods of the senior teachers and passed the tests that were not very difficult.

Moreover, their scores on each exam weren't that much different from the two of them, so there was still a chance for them to try their luck.

But this is the real college entrance examination, and it's my first time taking the national exam.

As senior students in their class, they had been practicing for a whole year.

Jinzhong has been continuously requesting past exam papers for the national college entrance examination from other provinces that have already implemented the national exam.

But Shen Qingqing and her classmates only had one semester.

Wu Fangyi even broke the school's highest score record.

Comparing yourself to others is truly infuriating.

"Have you all gone back and looked at the college application guide I sent you?" Zheng Yonghui tapped the table to bring their attention back.

"Looked."

A series of responses.

"So what are your individual volunteer ideas?" Zheng Yonghui asked directly without beating around the bush.

Two of the three students in the senior class looked troubled, while only one smiled and answered first, "I want to go to Fudan University."

Zheng Yonghui recalled that Fudan University's admission scores in previous years were all around 685. This student's score had already exceeded the previous years' scores by quite a bit.

"However, I only scored eleven or twelve points above the cutoff for the major I want to apply for, so I'm not sure if I can get in."

Zheng Yonghui nodded: "If you really want to go, you can fill in 'willing to be assigned to another major,' and you can change your major in college. Is this the only school you applied to?"

The student first nodded, then shook his head: "I also filled in a few schools within the province."

"You should be able to get into several schools within the province. That's good. You filled in the right choices. Some were for aiming high and taking a gamble, while others were for safety schools," Zheng Yonghui praised.

Then he looked at the other four people, "What about you?"

Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi had already decided on their volunteer arrangements long ago.

Although the six choices made by the two individuals were not exactly the same, they were all basically in the same city.

Shen Qingqing didn't dare to fill in Q University for herself at first, but Wu Fangyi wanted to give it a shot, so the two of them put Q University first.

Then came the other universities in the capital, followed by the universities in Shanghai. After listening to Shen Qingqing's explanation and considering their scores, Zheng Yonghui didn't say anything more.

This arrangement is quite reasonable.

Based on the fact that both of them scored in the top 50 in their province, they can basically choose any school. However, their scores might be a little risky for certain majors at the top 2 schools.

With three people's applications confirmed to be without issue, Zheng Yonghui focused his attention on the two who were still struggling.

This short meeting lasted for more than half an hour, and was mostly spent on the two students who had not yet decided on their majors.

After the meeting ended and the three students from the senior class left, Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi were called to an empty classroom by Zheng Yonghui and the homeroom teacher from the next class.

"Are you two really sure you want to go to Q University?" the homeroom teacher of Rocket Class 2 asked.

This time, Wu Fangyi nodded firmly: "Yes."

"What majors did you all apply for?" the homeroom teacher of Rocket Class 2 asked again.

Shen Qingqing: "I'm a business major."

Wu Fangyi: "I'm a math major."

After hearing their answers, the homeroom teacher of Rocket Class 2 breathed a slight sigh of relief: "Not bad, there's still one person we can salvage."

"Fangyi, my teacher was specially appointed as a professor at Q University two years ago. She happens to be a mathematics researcher. If you want to pursue further studies after you get into Q University, you can take this letter to my teacher."

Wu Fangyi took the letter; the envelope was light, yet it felt heavy in her hand.

Even before they knew their choices, the teacher had already carefully prepared this gift.

Upon seeing this, Shen Qingqing immediately looked at Zheng Yonghui, "Teacher, do I have one? It doesn't have to be my grandmaster's; senior brothers, sisters, uncles, or grand-uncles are fine too!"

Zheng Yonghui's face darkened: "Go away! Do you think Teacher Da Niu is like cabbage, something anyone can just bump into?"

Shen Qingqing pouted, feeling wronged, "Teacher, how come you're so bad at this..."

"Hey, you kid!" Zheng Yonghui reached out and tapped Shen Qingqing on the head.

After giving them the things they needed, the two homeroom teachers saw them off as they left the school.

Before leaving, Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi each went up and hugged the two teachers.

"Alright, go back now. When you receive your acceptance letter, remember to bring it to the school so we can see it."

"Teachers who are able to come will definitely do so!"

On June 25, the website for college application opened for submissions.

The early admission batch will be the first, followed by the batches.

As soon as they were able to fill out the forms, Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi filled in the schools and majors they had previously chosen at home.

After confirming that there were no errors in the major code and school code, Shen Qingqing pressed submit.

Everything is done, now we just wait for the final results next month.

Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi kept their expectations for the outcome to themselves and then threw themselves into their work.

Wu Fangyi no longer accepts in-home tutoring jobs; she just stays at her studio.

Moreover, she has strict requirements for accepting students; she only accepts students who are stuck at a certain score level and can't improve.

As for the determination of the segmentation, no one knows what the pattern is; we can only find out when Youqiantu Studio releases its recruitment information.

Wu Fangyi's publicity was also very straightforward. She directly released her report cards from Experimental Middle School, her high school entrance exam scores, her admission notice to Jinzhong Middle School, and her report cards and rankings for all her exams during her time at Jinzhong Middle School.

Wu Fangyi teaches for ten hours a day, working at a very high intensity.

Parents who accompanied their children to the studio to observe classes felt very reassured after listening to Wu Fangyi's first three lessons, and entrusted their children to her care.

The days slipped by quietly as Shen Qingqing and Wu Fangyi dabbled in making money together and occasionally chatted about their college admission results.

It has to be said that after Wu Fangyi returned to the helm, and with Shen Qingqing coming back to oversee publicity and expand manpower, the performance of Youqian Education Studio doubled dramatically.

All ten tutoring rooms on both floors were full, so the remaining teachers had to take on in-home tutoring jobs.

However, Shen Qingqing has no plans to expand the studio's current size, because half of the current staff and half of the new staff will be going to the capital with her.

Around the 20th of July, Shen Qingqing received a phone call while checking reports at the company.

"Hello? Is this Shen Qingqing?"

"Yes, that's me. May I ask who you are?" Shen Qingqing put down the report for the moment.

"Your acceptance letter has arrived! Please bring your ID card and come to the entrance of the community to sign for it!"

Admission notice!
Shen Qingqing stood up abruptly. "Okay, please wait a moment, I'll be right back!"

After hanging up the phone, Shen Qingqing immediately rushed up to the third floor to find Wu Fangyi.

Just then, Wu Fangyi's students were doing exercises, so she gave me twenty minutes to do them.

"What's wrong?" Wu Fangyi quietly came out and asked her in a low voice.

"The acceptance letter has arrived. Didn't you also fill in my home address? The post office just called, so it should have been delivered in the same batch. I'd like you to come back with me," Shen Qingqing said softly.

Wu Fangyi glanced back at the tutoring room.

"I'll find a teacher to stand in for you here. We'll come back after we get the admission notice." Shen Qingqing grabbed Wu Fangyi's wrist and left.

Zheng Dongqi once again took on the responsibility of taking the two small business owners home.

While on the way, Wu Fangyi also received a phone call.

"Hello, is this Wu Fangyi? Your admission notice has arrived. Please bring your ID card and come to the entrance of the community to sign for it in person!"

Both of them carried their ID cards with them at all times.

Shen Qingqing developed this habit after attending university in her previous life, while Wu Fangyi developed it because she felt unsafe leaving her in either of those two homes.

Even from a distance, Shen Qingqing spotted the green postal motorcycle parked at the entrance of the residential area.

Zheng Dongqi followed her instructions and stopped the car at the entrance of the residential area.

As soon as the car came to a stop, Shen Qingqing pushed open the car door and rushed out.

"Hello, I am Shen Qingqing, this is my ID card." Shen Qingqing took out her ID card and handed it over.

Wu Fangyi followed closely behind and handed over hers: "Hello, I am Wu Fangyi."

The postman smiled when he saw the two of them arrive together. "You two are together? Congratulations! This is an acceptance letter from Q University!"

The postman quickly took a picture, then signed it for both of them and handed them the acceptance letter.

On the side with the postal label, the sender's address is clearly the same address that Q University uses on its official website.

Happy 521 everyone!
Wishing everyone a successful and prosperous Lesser Fullness (Xiaoman)!
See you tomorrow~
