Chapter 366 - Shock

Inside the dormitory building, an anxious-looking woman led the way at the front.

A group of school administrators followed closely, sweating profusely and wiping their brows in a state of panic.

Trailing behind them was a cluster of girls, their faces alight with curiosity.

?Soon, the group reached their destination.

“Leaders, this is Su Qiu's dorm,” the woman said, her voice quivering.

?The girls behind them had an epiphany.

“Oh, it's Su Qiu. We've heard from her roommates that she gets a new boyfriend every three days. She's quite promiscuous.”

“And she has the nerve to act all innocent. She's truly vile.”

“With all these administrators here for her, she must be in deep trouble.”

“She could be expelled.”

“She might even end up in jail.”

The girls whispered among themselves.

?”Quiet down, all of you!” The dean, having overheard the girls' gossip, was livid. He whirled around, glaring at them, and bellowed.

Instantly, the girls fell silent.

Though they stopped talking, they all suspected that Su Qiu had stirred up some serious trouble.

Could she have done something to disgrace the school?

It seemed quite likely.

Why else would so many administrators visit her dorm?

They might even prohibit the other students from discussing it!

?Unaware of the girls' inner thoughts, the dean stood at the dormitory door, took a deep breath, and slowly let it out.

He exchanged knowing looks with the other administrators behind him.

Then, with a smile on his face—a smile that radiated kindness—he bent forward slightly and gently tapped on the door.

?The knock wasn't loud, but in the quiet of the night, the sound carried through the wooden door and into the dorm.

?”Who's knocking?”

“Is it Young Master Ye?”

“It's very likely!”

“Qiu, you're amazing. You've won Young Master Ye's heart with such ease.”

“When you're rich, don't forget us. We've put in a lot of effort for you.”

Her three roommates chimed in together.

Su Qiu's complexion was ashen.

Yet, she was certain that the person outside wasn't Ye Fenglong.

Could it be a classmate from the next dorm over?

The individuals living in the neighboring dorm room hailed from different classes, and they weren't well-acquainted with them.

Su Qiu had barely sat up when one of her roommates flung the door open.

“Young Master Ye.”

Her roommate's face beamed with a smile, but after uttering those words, she froze in place.

“Dean Lee, Secretary Chen, Director Wang?”

The girl retreated several steps in astonishment.

What could have brought the School of Economics' leadership to their doorstep at this late hour?

“Is Su Qiu here?”

Dean Lee inquired, a warm smile gracing his features.

“She's in the dorm,” the roommate replied, still visibly stunned.

Dean Lee peered inside and spotted Su Qiu sitting on her bed, looking bewildered.

He rubbed his hands together and cautiously approached.

Secretary Chen and Director Wang trailed behind him, both wearing pleasant smiles.

?”Su Qiu, we had no idea someone of your esteemed status was studying at Eastsea University. We sincerely apologize for not providing the care you deserved earlier,” Dean Lee began.

“We've reviewed your academic performance and found that your scores in the previous two subjects were outstanding. Your failing grades were due to collusion between Ye Fenglong and the teacher.”

“We've corrected those grades to 99 points for you, and the teacher involved has been dismissed.”

“We've also arranged a luxurious single apartment for you, complete with a private bedroom, study, living room, bathroom, and a small kitchen. It's fully equipped with air conditioning, geothermal heating, a refrigerator, washing machine, and all the necessary amenities.”

“We hope you'll speak kindly of us to your brother and not hold any grudges.”

Dean Lee watched Su Qiu's reaction intently as he spoke.

Sweat began to bead on his forehead.

?Though autumn had brought cooler nights that warranted the use of blankets, Dean Lee felt an intense heat, as if he were next to a blazing furnace. As the dean of the School of Economics, he was aware that Su Qiu had been unfairly targeted because of Ye Fenglong.

But his hands were tied; he couldn't risk offending the principal's son.

Yet, Su Qiu's brother wielded even greater influence, someone not even the principal would dare cross.

Dean Lee had been nestled in bed, nearly asleep, but the news jolted him awake. He dressed swiftly and made his way to the university with utmost urgency.

He was terrified that Su Qiu would become furious.

If Su Qiu decided to seek retribution for past events,

They would be doomed.

The academy's leadership would be dismissed. They would all be forced into retirement, or worse, outright fired.

Su Qiu was dumbfounded for quite some time after hearing Dean Lee's proposition.

“If you feel this offer isn't satisfactory, we're prepared to cover all your university expenses, and the school will provide you with an annual scholarship of 40,000 yuan.”

“Furthermore, the School of Economics will offer you a spot in the PhD program. If you agree, I assure you that you can obtain your doctorate within six years!”

Dean Lee added.

The students around were shocked upon hearing this.

They had thought Dean Lee was coming to confront Su Qiu, but now it seemed he was actually apprehensive about her settling scores with them.

Eastsea University ranks among the top ten institutions in the country.

Admission requires a minimum score of 660.

PhD positions are exceedingly rare. The prestigious School of Economics at Eastsea University only offers two PhD spots annually.

Any student securing one of these spots can earn their PhD, provided they don't fail any courses and their thesis is approved.

With the significant prestige attached to an economics PhD and fewer than 100 individuals in the country holding one, each becomes a highly sought-after asset for major corporations. They can command multimillion-dollar salaries right at the start of their careers. A few years with a company can lead to even greater earnings.

The company would provide them with housing and cars, shares in the business, and year-end bonuses. In a few years, they could become billionaires.

This is a highly coveted and hard-to-attain opportunity.

Yet, while others must diligently study and excel academically to earn such a spot, Dean Lee had just offered it to Su Qiu, implying she could secure her PhD simply by agreeing to remain at the university.

They had personally extended this valuable PhD opportunity to Su Qiu.
