âYes, I am Yi Feng. May I ask who you are?â Yi Feng looked at him up and down with a puzzled expression.
The man in the suit appeared well-mannered and cultured, not looking bad at all.
âHello, Student Yi!â
âLet me introduce myself, I am the head of the Guangdong admissions office for Stanford University, my name is Song, Song Wenbin.â
Song Wenbin happily shook hands with Yi Feng, his eyes full of warm smiles.
âStanford University?!â Meng Xiaoyun exclaimed in shock, her eyes wide open, covering her mouth.
Because this is a world top ten prestigious university!
Why would they suddenly visit?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yi Qiaoxiu and her son were also stunned.
âCould it be? A Stanford University admissions officer coming here? Could this person⦠be a scammer?â Yi Qiaoxiu was very skeptical.
âMom, thereâs no need to say, this person must be a scammer!â Luo Shanshui declared confidently.
Stanford is a top university, what relation could it possibly have with Yi Fengâs family?
Hearing this, Song Wenbinâs face became a bit awkward, and he quickly explained: âNo no, I really am an admissions officer from Stanford University. I came here today mainly to offer Student Yi a special admission to Stanford University!â
âKeep bragging, special admission to Stanford? Why would my cousin be specially admitted? Because heâs among the top ten in the national college entrance exam?â Luo Shanshui scoffed, feeling like he heard a joke.
âYounger brother, I think heâs definitely a scammer, just here to scam money!â Yi Qiaoxiu nodded in agreement.
Yi Jianguo scratched his head, how could he not think that this middle-aged man in a suit looked reliable.
Song Wenbin became anxious and took out a business card and an admission letter from his pocket.
âIâm really not a scammer! Look, this is my business card and this recruitment brochure.â
âI came because Student Yi is this yearâs top scorer in the Guangdong college entrance exam! He scored 721 points!â Song Wenbin wiped the sweat from his forehead, hurriedly explaining.
âWhat?! A college entrance exam score of 721 points?â Meng Xiaoyun exclaimed.
â721 points?!â
Everyone present, except Yi Feng, was stunned.
Yi Jianbing was so shocked that his mouth hung open as if he could swallow a fist.
âYou, what did you say? How many points? How many points did my Little Feng score?â Yi Jianbing grabbed Song Wenbinâs shoulder excitedly, shaking him wildly.
âCough cough, Mr. Yi, yes, 721 points, thatâs correct.â Song Wenbin, nearly vomited, hurriedly responded.
âAh! 721 points!â Yi Jianbing released him, grabbing his hair, looking at Yi Feng in disbelief.
He never imagined Yi Feng could score so high, it was too unexpected.
Gu Muxi was also dumbfounded at this moment.
She suddenly covered her mouth, fearing she would exclaim in excitement.
My goodness! 721 points!
Stinky Feng actually scored so high?
And heâs even the top scorer in Guangdong, thatâs too awesome!
Yi Qiaoxiu and her son were dumbfounded.
â721 points? Top scorer in Guangdong? How is that possible? You, you must be mistaken?â Yi Qiaoxiu asked in astonishment.
Song Wenbin opened the admission letter, saying, âNo mistake, itâs this address, Guangxi No.3 Rolling Mill Workersâ Quarters, Building 3, Unit 1, Student Yi Feng, we wonât make a mistake!â
The crowd gathered around to see, and it really was this address.
Luo Shanshui suddenly raised an eyebrow, questioning, âThatâs not right, this must also be fake, how did you know the score so quickly?â
âHehe, my cousin hasnât even received a notice from the school yet, how did you know in advance?â
Song Wenbin chuckled, explaining, âActually, I knew yesterday afternoon, the day the scores were released in Guangdong province, so in Guangxi Cityâ¦. Actually⦠for top universities like ours, we have our ways.â
âSon, can you really score like this?â Meng Xiaoyun turned her head to look at Yi Feng, seeking confirmation from him.
Yi Feng shrugged, smiling, âItâs not far off from my own estimate, this score⦠is within expectations.â
Hearing this, everyone present looked at him in astonishment.
Within⦠expectations?
Is this something a human says?
âHahaha! Son, youâre really accomplished!â Meng Xiaoyun chose to believe Yi Feng unconditionally, excitedly embracing him, her eyes reddening, tears shimmering.
In that moment, she felt all her hardships were worth it!
âKnock knock knockââ
Just then, there was a rapid knock at the door.
âWho is it?â Gu Muxi hurried over to open the door.
âEr! Homeroom teacher, Teacher Zhao!â
âAh! Principal Su?â
Gu Muxi, seeing the visitors, was momentarily stunned.
âGu Muxi, is Yi Feng at home? Is he?â Zhao Xue asked hurriedly.
âHe is, teacher, please come in.â Gu Muxi said dazedly, making way.
Zhao Xue and Principal Su rushed into the house, seeing Yi Feng, their faces full of excitement.
Zhao Xue ran over, grabbing Yi Fengâs hand, saying, âYi Feng, congratulations! Congratulations!â
âYi Feng, your score is out!â
â721 points, the highest in Guangxi City and Guangdong province, you are this yearâs top college entrance exam scorer!â
âThe teacher is proud of you, proud!â
Principal Su also approached Yi Feng, beaming, âStudent Yi Feng, youâve brought glory to our school!â
âFor this, I, on behalf of the school, award you twenty thousand yuan as a reward!â
âYou are the pride of Taoyuan No.1 Middle School!â
Yi Jianbing was astonished, âWhat? Twenty thousand?!â
Thatâs a huge sum!
Enough for Yi Fengâs university tuition fees!
Song Wenbin straightened his clothes, seriously saying, âSee, I told you, Student Yi really is the top scorer in Guangdong!â
âStudent Yi, I now formally invite you on behalf of Stanford University to study at Stanford!â
âWe can waive all tuition fees for your entire period of study, and provide a yearly scholarship of fifty thousand US dollars to cover all your daily expenses.â
âAnd, we promise to provide you with the best research environment and resources!â
Everyone present, except Yi Feng, was amazed.
These conditions were too good!
Not only tuition-free, but also a yearly scholarship of fifty thousand US dollars!
And the best research resources!
For any student, this is the biggest temptation!
Yi Qiaoxiu was dumbfounded.
She hadnât expected this to be true!
Yi Feng really was the top scorer in the Guangdong college entrance exam, and now he even received a special invitation from a top foreign institution!
She felt like a clownâ¦
âCough cough, Little Feng, congratulations, congratulations.â She smiled awkwardly, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into.
Luo Shanshuiâs face looked ugly, his sense of superiority shattered, feeling envious and resentful towards Yi Feng.
Gu Muxi was genuinely happy for Yi Feng, being able to study at a world top ten university, something many people dream of.
But her heart ached sharply.
Because if Yi Feng agreed to study at Stanford, then he might have to go far abroadâ¦
Perhaps not returning for a long, long timeâ¦
âStinky Feng⦠con, congratulations.â Gu Muxi forced a smile, her eyes hiding an unmistakable loss.
âSo, what do you say, Student Yi? Our school is one of the top institutions in the world, with the best resources. I believe you will enjoy studying and living there.â Song Wenbin eagerly looked at Yi Feng.
For a moment, all eyes were on Yi Feng, waiting for his response.
