Chapter 648: Junior Sister, You Went Back On Your Words

Zi Yi looked at her inexplicably. “So what if I heard it?”

The female student choked and her cheeks instantly turned red as she said grumpily, “I will get this year’s scholarship!”

Zi Yi nodded her head. “Then good luck.”

She started walking forward after she said that and when she brushed past the female student’s side, she thought about it and stopped to say, “I’m not M.Uni’s specialty; M.Unis specialty is confidence and unwillingness to give up. If you wish to prove yourself, you should work hard.”

Zi Yi left after she said her piece.

The female student suddenly looked up at Zi Yi and with her hands clenched tightly, she shouted, “Zi Yi, I am Xia Mengqi from the Chemistry Department and I’m in Year 3. I hope that I can meet you on the scholarship bulletin board!”

Zi Yi did not even turn back and responded with an ‘okay’ before she walked further away.

Xia Mengqi stood there for a long time and remained still.

There were many spectating students who pointed at her and said, “Your courage is commendable. Student, you just said our thoughts out loud too.”

“Say, do you think Student Zi can get all the scholarships for all majors this year?”

“She’s taking so many majors at one go and she would also miss class from time to time. I feel that it’s a little hard.”

“Even if she does not receive the scholarships, her grades will still be good.”

“That’s definitely the case. I heard that she can answer the questions the teachers ask without even bringing her textbooks to class and all her answers are correct.”

“Then I’ll have to work harder. I feel so pressured that I am in the same year as her.”

“Me too.”

…

The time was currently when lessons were already ending and the road was filled with people.

Along the way, there was no lack of people who issued a challenge against her, and Zi Yi had answered all of them.

She originally planned to head to the School of Liberal Arts to drive her racing car and leave. However, she did not manage to walk for a long time before she received a call from Nangong Yu.

He asked for her to make a trip to the Student Union building.

Just as Zi Yi entered the Student Union’s office building, she was surrounded by a group of people.

The first thing everyone asked was about her car accident.

Zi Yi casually thought of an excuse and fed them with it.

She finally managed to reach Nangong Yu’s office room with great difficulty.

She did not expect the first words she heard from him to be: “Junior Sister, you went back on your words.”

Zi Yi tilted her head and thought for a moment. Only then did she remember that she had promised him a program during the New Year’s Eve event.

Before she had the chance to speak, Nangong Yu said with a smile, “How about this, thinking of your special circumstances, I won’t comment on it anymore. However, there will be an international college chemistry competition tomorrow and it will be held in the capital. Why don’t you take part in it too?”

Zi Yi said with a sullen face, “I will be taking the exams from tomorrow onwards.”

Nangong Yu revealed a smile that exposed his teeth. “I know, but you can solve questions relatively quickly, and plus, you have a flying racing car. The competition will be held at the Imperial University of Technology, which is not far away, and it lasts from 9 a.m to 12 p.m. I feel that you’ll definitely be able to reach there in time.”

Zi Yi narrowed her eyes and looked at him.

Her gaze caused Nangong Yu to feel a slight pressure.

He purposely put his hands on the office table and revealed a vexed expression. “I know it’s a little inhumane to ask for your help in such a short period of time, but I have no other way. It just so happens that one of the participants got acute gastroenteritis and he was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment in the middle of the night yesterday. He will definitely be unable to participate in the competition tomorrow.

“Most importantly, our M.Uni’s Chemistry… hmm… how should I say this?”

Zi Yi thought of what the seniors had said when they were removing the snow and she said, “M.Uni’s Chemistry Department has always been in second place in the international competitions.”

Nangong Yu was stunned for a moment before he propped up his forehead with his hand and revealed a bitter smile. “So you know about it too.”

“I had some people bringing it up to me before,” Zi Yi said with a calm expression. “I heard that during every international chemistry competition, our M.Uni would be mocked.”

“Yes.” Nangong Yu nodded his head. “Therefore, I hope that you can participate.”

Zi Yi thought about it. Two to three hours would not delay her exams and so, she nodded. “Alright.”

After settling this matter, Nangong Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he stand up from his seat and walk over to Zi Yi. He said with a smile, “I’ll send the details of the competition to you shortly, you can go back and take a look.”

He then added. “To thank you for helping the Chemistry Department, I’ll treat you to dinner tonight.”

Zi Yi tilted her head and looked at him as she rejected him outright. “No need, I’ll be going back home to eat.”

Nangong Yu did not insist either and the both of them headed outside the office.

However, they did not expect to bump into a group of Department Heads who were still loitering outside the door.

“Zi Yi, we agreed to run for the position of the Department Head previously and you went back on your words. For the New Year’s Eve event, you agreed to perform and you also went back on your words.” The one who spoke was Chen Yuying.

The way she looked at Zi Yi was as if she loved and hated her at the same time. She felt that this woman had no credibility at all.

The moment Zi Yi saw Chen Yuying, she thought of the previous incident related to the recruitment for choosing Department Heads. The corner of her lips curved up and she said, “When did I say I was going to run for the position of Department Head?”

“You-” Chen Yuying suddenly recalled Zi Yi saying that if she were to run for a position, it would be for the President’s position. She was suddenly speechless.

Yu Meng laughed at their interaction. “So be it that you didn’t promise. In any case, we have all regarded you as a member of our Student Union. In order to celebrate your well-being, we have all had a discussion to invite you out for dinner tonight. You should at the very least, give us that level of face, right?”

“That’s right. We invited you to a meal before and you kept rejecting us. Today is a special situation so you have to go.”

“If you don’t go, we will then follow you around.”

Zi Yi: “…”

Nangong Yu, who was standing behind her, laughed at their words.

He said, “Junior Sister, it seems like you can’t get away with avoiding this meal this time.”

Tang Yue started joining the commotion. “We didn’t manage to have a single wedding candy when you got married and you should be the one treating us tonight. However, as we are all big eaters and we are scared that you might run away out of fear because of the bill, it’s best that we treat you instead.”

Zi Yi was amused by his words. She thought about it and nodded her head. “Alright then, where shall we eat?”

“I know a place.” Tang Yue spoke eagerly. “Not long ago, I got a coupon for [Hai Tian Yi Se] the seafood restaurant that is highly raved about on the internet. The seafood in that restaurant is absolutely fantastic and it’s so delicious that I guarantee you would want to visit it a second time.”

“I know of this restaurant. I heard that the boss is engaged in marine aquaculture and all the seafood is delivered from the boss’ marine ranch. It is absolutely fresh and pollution-free.”

“Then what are we waiting for, let’s go and eat some seafood.”

When Nangong Yu heard how everyone was eagerly recommending this restaurant, he slightly frowned and asked Zi Yi, “Junior Sister, are you alright with seafood?”

Zi Yi lowered her eyes and thought. Even though these people have their own thoughts, their personalities were not bad and she could sense it.

However, she would get an allergic reaction if she ate many types of seafood together. One would be able to find that out as long as they checked it.

Therefore, there must be someone who purposely guided them.

At the thought of this, the smile on Zi Yi’s lips deepened and she said, “I want to eat.”

Since Zi Yi had said so, everyone happily headed to [Hai Tian Yi Se] seafood restaurant.

The restaurant was located in the business district of the university town and it was not far from M.Uni.

The appearance of the restaurant was similar to that of other restaurants. However, the moment they stepped inside, they seemed to have entered an aquarium.

After entering, there was a long and wide corridor with huge glass aquariums on both sides, which were filled with various sea creatures.

There was also an eye-catching price list on the wall.
