Li Yuan reached out and patted her shoulder. “I believe in your abilities,
Yanyan. Zui Gui and I will be waiting for your good news.”
Li Yuan knew that words of persuasion held no meaning for Nan Yan.
She couldn’t possibly be indifferent to the duration because the people she cared about were in a deep slumber. Perhaps this pressure might even help her break through her own limitations.
After bidding farewell to Li Yuan and Zui Gui, Nan Yan returned to China with
Qin Lu. They first visited the An family’s old mansion. After meeting with Old Master An, Nan Yan went to find Yu Xiwen to discuss her intention to take the self-enrollment route.
Upon hearing her words, Yu Xiwen looked at her with a kind expression. “Yanyan, I know that with your abilities, you’ve long been qualified for university, and even the university courses wouldn’t pose a challenge to you. Your willingness to stay at Zhide High School is to help the school.”
“You’ve already done a lot for Zhide High School, and I don’t want to use a sense of responsibility to keep you here, preventing you from pursuing what you truly want to do!”
In fact, Yu Xiwen also understood that Nan Yan’s initial decision to stay behind and participate in the college entrance examination was to secure the position of a top scholar for Zhide High School. He deeply appreciated her intentions.
If there weren’t a compelling reason for her to make this choice, she wouldn’t have discussed this with him just days before the start of the senior year.
Given the circumstances, he couldn’t be a hindrance to her.
Nan Yan replied, “I’ll do my best to maintain my student status and temporarily not transfer to Imperial University. When the time comes, I’ll represent Zhide High School in the college entrance examination.”
This was her promise to Yu Xiwen, and she would do her utmost unless circumstances prevented her from fulfilling it.
“Yanyan, you don’t have to do this, really. I believe that Zhide High School will continue to improve, and your influence on motivating your fellow students to study hard is more important than being the top scholar.”
Yu Xiwen’s words were sincere, and he wasn’t exaggerating. One could see this from the transformation of Class 4 in their sophomore year.
Originally considered a dead-end class, Nan Yan had inspired them to work hard, and each student was now excelling academically, comparable to any top class. Additionally, the influence spread to other classes as well.
Yu Xiwen spoke solemnly, “Yanyan, go ahead and pursue what you want Since I became the principal because of you, I will make sure to manage the school well and won’t let you down.”
Nan Yan didn’t insist further, but her thoughts remained unchanged. She
planned to discuss this matter with the principal of Imperial University after successfully enrolling through self-enrollment.
“I’ll come back to visit you often.”
“That’s good, that’s good…”
After Yu Xiwen saw Nan Yan off, his eyes were slightly red. He had thought that Nan Yan would stay at the school for another year.
sigh…
“Brother, if I manage to enroll in Imperial University, can I continue to maintain my student status?”
She had just checked and found no such precedent in China.
Qin Lu gently ruffled her hair and whispered, “At that time, I’ll talk to the principal.”
Nan Yan raised an eyebrow, “And the principal would listen to you?”
As far as she knew, Qin Lu hadn’t attended Imperial University, nor was he a graduate from there. Did he really have the authority to make such requests? Qin Lu remained silent for a moment before responding casually, “Probably…”
Back at the An family’s old mansion, after having a meal with Old Master An, Old Master Lu, and An Xiran, Nan Yan directly expressed her decision at the dinner table.
Old Master An, Old Master Lu, and An Xiran fell into silence. Their granddaughter, niece, and little sister always had ideas that exceeded their expectations. However, they would support her decision.
Old Master Lu looked at her with a hint of bitterness in his eyes. His plans for nurturing her talent in the arts had all gone down the drain.
sigh…
If he didn’t know that Nan Yan didn’t harbor any ill feelings towards him, he might have thought that she had some grievances against him.
Helpless…
Before leaving for Imperial City, Nan Yan prepared some medicine for both grandfathers.
Nan Yan also considered obtaining some rare herbs for Bai Chen and Shen Junqing.
She made a call to inform her two masters, Hua Shifang and Sun Chan, that she would be visiting with Qin Lu later.
Upon arrival, a handsome man stood in front of Nan Yan with a cheerful smile, taking the initiative to greet her..
