The ceremony lasted from 9 am to 12 noon. Ye Jian kept a smile on her face for the entire three hours. She felt that her cheeks were sore from smiling.
When the ceremony ended, she was still unable to leave. She went with Princ.i.p.al Chen to chat with the leaders of the City Bureau of Education before walking towards the cafeteria.
Secretary Wu had already started probing Ye Jian on which school she was going to apply to. He highly recommended the Munic.i.p.al No.1 Middle School. “Although its environment is not as good as the Provincial No.1 Middle School, it is the first school that offers internet access for its students, also…”
Secretary Wu was not the only person talking about Munic.i.p.al No.1 Middle School. The other leaders who were walking alongside her introduced the Munic.i.p.al No.1 Middle School to her too. It seemed like they wanted Ye Jian to remain in this city and not get s.n.a.t.c.hed by other provincial cities.
Princ.i.p.al Cao of the Provincial No.1 Middle School finally managed to finish his conversation with some high-ranking officers. When he walked over to Ye Jian, he heard her saying with a smile, “Actually, I have no intention of going to the province to study. Firstly, it is too far. Secondly, there is no need for it.”
“Studying depends on ourselves. Whether we can get into our dream university or not depends on ourselves too. I don’t want to go to a school that is too far away. I will just study in town.”
Princ.i.p.al Cao sighed. He gave up his intention of speaking to Ye Jian. He said to Mrs. Zhu, “She gave up the chance to study in the capital city. Now, she gave up the opportunity to study in the provincial city. Sigh, let’s go. This girl is a piece of gold. She will s.h.i.+ne wherever she goes.”
In order to be able to go home easily, Ye Jian chose to study in town.
Just as they were about to reach the cafeteria, Ye Jian saw Han Zheng carrying his camera around his neck and standing under the shade of a tree. He had one hand in his pocket. He seemed to be waiting for someone.
Waiting for someone? Ye Jian couldn’t help but look behind her. The towering figure was nowhere in sight.
… He was not waiting for Major Xia.
