Chapter 99: Competing for Tan Mo

“I think you might as well just choose another university,” Qin Muxiao said, sneering.

Yuan Keqing couldn’t help but look at Qin Muxiao. She was surprised that after so many years Qin Muxiao hadn’t improved at all and was still just as stupid as she had always been.

But she agreed with the last sentence.

Tan Mo should choose another university.

“Cousin, you haven’t said how many points you scored on the exam? Let’s come up with ideas together. Let’s see which school you have a higher chance of getting into.” Looking at the current situation, Yuan Keqing obviously thought she had put the nail in the coffin, and she was feeling pleasure at Tan Mo’s failure.

“You guys don’t need to worry about that.” Tan Jinyi was having difficulty suppressing his laughter. Looking at Wei Keli, Yuan Keqing, and Qin Muxiao, he felt as if he was looking at a bunch of idiots. “We have already made a decision.”

“Have you chosen?” Yuan Keqing asked. “Which school did you choose?”

“I chose Beijing University.” Tan Mo thought, what I’m telling you is the truth, so don’t accuse me of lying afterward.

“Beijing University?” Yuan Keqing was stunned, then she laughed and said, “Cousin, are you going to repeat the grade? If not, there is no need to choose a university that you can’t get accepted into to save face. It’s better to be more down-to-earth and choose a school you have a higher chance of getting into.”

“That’s right, don’t dream about Beijing University.” Qin Muxiao sneered disdainfully.

“Mo Mo, why don’t you repeat your studies for a year, and you might be able to get into Beijing University by then.” Wei Keli looked at Tan Mo and acted as if he was talking for her own good.

“Cousin, how many points did you score on the test?” Yuan Keqing couldn’t wait to hear the answer.

“Yeah, tell us about it.” Qin Muxiao chuckled and said, “Or is it so bad you’re embarrassed to say it?”

Xu Mingzhen couldn’t bear it anymore. These people dared to speak like this in front of Tan Mo’s parents and family?

She was about to say how many points Tan Mo had scored on the exam.

“Tan Mo.” Director Huang of the Academic Affairs Office of Jixia Academy walked over, followed by a middle-aged man who looked very scholarly.

“Director Huang.” The students standing around gave way and greeted him politely.

Director Huang nodded his head and walked up to Tan Mo. He first greeted Tan Wenci and Xu Mingzhen before introducing the middle-aged man next to him, “Tan Mo, this is President Hao of Tong University.”

At this time, more and more students were gradually gathering around.

Jixia Academy is very famous. In previous years, many well-known universities would send representatives to Jixia to set up admission booths.

But the top-ranking prestigious schools have never lacked top students or investment, so even toward Jixia Academy, they weren’t very proactive.

This is the first time that the principal of Tong University has come to Jixia Academy in person.

Tong University is the sixth most prestigious school in the country.

Why would Director Huang directly introduce President Hao to Tan Mo?

There are so many students in the senior grade, so why did they go up to Tan Mo alone?

“Our school is pretty impressive. At any rate, he is still the President of Tong University, but only Director Huang went to receive him. What about our principal?” a student asked in a low voice.

“President Hao, how do you do.” Tan Mo spoke politely.

“Tan Mo, hello,” President Hao said with a smile. “Before I came, I wondered what you would look like. I never thought you were such a young girl.”

Tan Mo only smiled sweetly.

“Tan Mo, do you have any desire to come to Tong University?” President Hao seemed to be afraid that he didn’t have enough time, and he didn’t even make any small talk first. He got straight to the subject. “I can give you a spot in advance. You won’t need to go online to fill in an application. As for scholarships and so on…”

“Tong University has always been stingy in granting scholarships, so don’t talk about it lest you make people laugh.” A mirthful voice interrupted President Hao’s words rudely.

President Hao didn’t need to look back. Just from the voice alone, he knew who it was. He felt angry and helpless.

“You…” President Hao had to pay attention to his image as a president, so he could only say, “After so many years, you’re still angry about this.”

“Tan Mo.” Director Lu of the General Affairs Office introduced someone else. “This is President Liu of Nan University.”

“President Liu, hello,” Tan Mo called out hurriedly.

“What’s going on? The President of Nan University is here as well?” The onlookers were astonished.

“It can’t be that they were invited by the school to be guests at the graduation ceremony, right?”

“Graduation ceremonies are held every year, and they have never been invited in previous years. The graduation ceremony of senior high school students isn’t important enough to invite the presidents of prestigious universities.”

“Nan University ranks higher than Tong University. It ranks fifth. Is this not worthy of our principal to receive him?”

“The principal of Nan University has also come for Tan Mo?”

“What’s going on with Tan Mo?”

Yuan Keqing, Wei Keli, and Qin Muxiao were all baffled.

They were all completely bewildered.

“Tan Mo, come to Nan University. I don’t need to ask what conditions Tong University offered you. I know that our conditions must be better than Tong University’s. Tong University is very stingy, and even the funding for project research is very stingy. It is very difficult to apply for funding.” As soon as President Liu spoke, Tan Mo and everyone else were stunned.

Is the President of Nan University so down to earth?

He doesn’t look like a sophisticated person at all.

“Nan University will not only waive your tuition for four years, but also give you a scholarship every year. You will definitely be ranked first in the application for research project funding.” President Liu promised all of this in one sentence.

Everyone: “…”

What is happening?

Is Nan University competing…against Tong University for Tan Mo?

The conditions were so good that they felt that Tan Mo even had room to continue to increase conditions.

Even if she had been the top scorer on the college entrance examination, she might not necessarily have been promised so many good conditions.

Yuan Keqing’s eyes swiveled between Tan Mo and the two presidents.

What was going on with Tan Mo?

“Besides, Tong University is only ranked sixth,” Principal Liu said.

At this moment, President Hao could no longer remain silent. “Hey! Old Liu, what do you mean by that? Tong University is ranked sixth, but Nan University is ranked fifth. How much higher are you guys ranked than us?”

“No matter, we are still ranked one place higher than you,” Principal Liu said proudly.

“Are you here to show off? If you have the ability, run to Beijing University and Hua University to show off!” President Hao was really angry with this old man.

Why was such an outrageous man chosen to be the president of Nan University?

It’s been so many years, yet the two of you still quarrel as soon as you meet?” A middle-aged man, accompanied by Director Yin of the Political Department, walked over.

“Old Wen, are you here too?” When President Liu saw him, he suddenly felt exasperated.

“You both came, yet you ask me why I’ve come?” Principal Wen said with a smile.

“But for real, why are you here?” President Liu asked warily.
