"Child, what did you score in the exam?"
Boyan Xu sat with crossed legs, smiled lightly seeing Lu Qingyi approaching.
The bulletin board was crowded with students. But he could see everything clearly.
"600 points."
Lu Qingyi sat down at her small stool.
Boyan Xu chuckled, "Impressive, kid."
He had thought that students from class 20 were not performing well, but he had been proven wrong.
Lu Qingyi stretched out her hand, "Not bad, where's my White Rabbit candy?"
With increased interactions, Lu Qingyi felt happier being with Boyan Xu than with her own family.
Her tone had relaxed significantly as well.
"They're all yours."
Boyan Xu leaned down to take out a boutique bag from under the table and set it on the table.
"Three-year college entrance examination and five-year mock examination?" Lu Qingyi opened the boutique bag, frowning, "What does this mean?"
In addition to the White Rabbit candy in the boutique bag, there was a thick set of practice questions, the three-year college entrance examination and five-year mock examination volumes.
Boyan Xu smiled softly, "Ever thought of going to Kyoto?"
He kind of wanted to bring the little girl back home.
Lu Qingyi tilted her head, remaining silent.
"Try hard to get into the medical college, and I'll promise to take you to Kyoto. How does that sound?"
Boyan Xu propped his cheek in his hand, looking into Lu Qingyi's eyes.
Together, they would go to Kyoto?
Lin Yuanhang held up his tea cup with his right hand, standing behind Boyan Xu in utter surprise, his eyes wide open with astonishment.
What the heck!
Were those really words that could come from his mouth?
This sounded like he was trying to sell a young, naive girl!
The strength in his hand lessened, the glass cup slipped to the marble floor, shattering into pieces.
Boyan Xu's eyes instantly covered with a layer of icy frost. He looked back coldly at the dumbfounded Lin Yuanhang.
Lin Yuanhang stammered with a dying expression, "That... that... Fourth Brother, I... my hand shook... it shook..."
He was finished.
Three words immediately entered his mind.
If only he knew, although Boyan Xu was quite introverted, he hardly ever gave anyone a cold stare.
Unless he was very angry.
"That... child... no, Miss Qing, you did splendidly."
Frightened, Lin Yuanhang's gaze shifted to Lu Qingyi.
The words "little child" were about to escape his mouth. But under Boyan Xu's icy stare, he swallowed the words and used a different address.
He patted his chest in relief, exhaling a long breath.
Fourth Brother's stare was too frightening.
Could it be that he had really fallen for this young girl?
Miss Qing?
Lu Qingyi frowned. Was this how they typically addressed her?
Was Boyan Xu that scary?
"Child, this Saturday, I'll take you out for a feast. What do you say?"
Boyan Xu glanced at certain Lu Qingyi with the corner of his eye, his face glowing with a smile.
Before meeting Lu Qingyi, Boyan Xu had never been interested in any girl. She was his first.
There was something familiar in her.
Lu Qingyi looked at Boyan Xu, her heart stirring with unknown feelings.
Even the person she had known for a few days had treated her better than that couple.
Blood relations, the most ironic relationship in the world, she chuckled in her mind.
"Child, you scored brilliantly on your exams. As a celebration, I want to invite you for a meal. I hope you would not deny me this honour?"
Boyan Xu chuckled softly, his sincere gaze landing on Lu Qingyi's face.
Lu Qingyi contemplated for a while and replied, "Alright."
Lu Yao and Yao Meishu did not like her. No matter how excellent she was, how hard she tried, their eyes would never see her.
This fact, Lu Qingyi understood all too well.
When she was young, she didn't understand. She thought it was her shortcomings that led to her parents not taking her home.
She once took her perfect scorecard to Jin City, where she found out she couldn't even enter Lu Mansion.
A beautiful report card couldn't get a single smile from Lu Yao and Yao Meishu.
Their attitude towards her simply improved a little in front of her grandmother.
"Little girl, will you not even consider the medical college?"
For some reason, he was incessantly committed to the idea that Lu Qingyi was very suited to the white lab coat.
Plus there was a selfish factor- the medical college was invested in by Xu's family.
Lu Qingyi furrowed her brows, "Why the medical college?"
The man had brought up the medical college more than once. By now, she was genuinely curious.
Among the many colleges in Kyoto, there were many which were better than the medical college. Besides, the medical college was not even the best medical college.
The best medical college was the medical organization itself.
The key figure of the medical organization was Dr. L and several of his famous disciples.
Boyan Xu laughed lightly, "Aren't you curious about Dr. L?"
"Dr. L is the key figure of the medical organization. Only by entering the medical college can you possibly join the medical organization," Boyan Xu explained.
Oh, seems reasonable.
Lu Qingyi nodded in comprehension.
The medical organization recruited people who had a medical foundational knowledge and were standouts in their field.
The medical college was indeed the best medical college.
The establishment of the medical organization was based on the medical college.
——
Lu Jiayue and her best friend Lan Xi were standing hand in hand in front of the bulletin board.
"Yueyue, didn't your older sister Lu Qingyi never attend high school?"
Lan Xi noticed Lu Qingyi's name at a glance. Her score was simply too attractive.
Every score was an exact 100 points, neither a point more nor a point less.
Lu Jiayue stared hard at Lu Qingyi's name, followed by that string of numbers, and clenched her fists.
She scored 680 points, which made her the fourth in her school. She was 41 points behind the top scorer of 721 points.
Her grade was remarkably good. However, when the score was posted, she was no longer the girl receiving the most attention.
The title now belonged to Lu Qingyi.
Lu Qingyi, who grew up in a rural area and had never attended high school.
Lu Qingyi did not have a higher grade than her, but the uniformity of her grades caught eyes-100 in each subject.
"She... indeed, she didn't attend high school. She lived with her grandmother in a small town. That's what her grandmother said, she herself has acknowledged this as well," Lu Jiayue bit her lip, and continued, "...I'm not sure about her scores."
"Yueyue, I'm going to talk to the guidance counselor about this."
As if she realized something, Lan Xi's eyes shone brightly. She patted Lu Jiayue's hand, looking somewhat excited.
A class 20 kid performing better than her in the exam, even when she was in the elite class, was embarrassing.
The guidance counselor was her uncle.
Lu Jiayue grabbed Lan Xi's hand, biting her lower lip, "Xi Xi... she's still my sister after all, you're my best friend..."
A hint of a triumphant smile flashed in her eyes.
Lu Qingyi, I doubt you did so well.
"Yueyue, we can't condone cheating. Even if it's the closest person or the best friend, you have no reason to cover for them."
Lan Xi patted Lu Jiayue's back of hand, patiently eases her worries.
In her eyes, Lu Jiayue was almost perfect, except she was too soft-hearted, often emotionally impulsive.
Lu Jiayue shook her head, looking somewhat tensed, "But, I and my sister..."
Lan Xi sighed helplessly, "It's fine, this matter has nothing to do with you. I'm the one who doesn't believe in Lu Qingyi's scores, I'm the one who wants to go to report."
She knew that Lu Jiayue and Lu Qingyi didn't get along well, and also that Lu Qingyi didn't like Lu Jiayue very much.
But Lu Jiayue was naive and still cared about their blood relations.
