Chapter 674 - The Anjing House trials (1/2)

In Luoyang City, many locations were starting to get busy as repair works began. The Qinghe Group’s workers were transporting truckloads of building materials from outside the city to repair the damaged buildings.

Inside this huge stronghold, blackened walls and neon signs damaged by the big fire could often be seen while taking a walk in the streets.

Fortunately, the first thing the Qinghe Group did after the chaotic battle was to carry out post-disaster rebuilding work. They not only rebuilt the houses and set up temporary tents but also distributed food to the people so they could tide through the crisis.

This gave the Luoyang City residents some hope, and Luoyang City was able to regain some of its vitality.

A reporter proposed to Jiang Xu that he wanted to interview those who had lost their homes and ask them if they felt touched by the Qinghe Group’s rebuilding efforts.

As a result, this reporter was criticized at the headquarters of Hope Media on that very day. Jiang Xu would always reprimand his reporters and editors with a very loud voice. “Those people don’t even have a home anymore, yet you’re thinking of asking them if they feel touched? Are you out of your mind? Don’t go and make things difficult for them at a time like this. Our Hope Media is not a mouthpiece for the Qinghe Group, so there’s no need to publicize their achievements for them!”

With this reprimand from Jiang Xu, all the reporters in the office stopped working for a moment.

Some people said Jiang Xu was the bastion of Hope Media. As long as he remained at Hope Media, this newspaper firm would keep reporting the truth.

Today was the day of Qinghe University’s special admissions examination. Zhou Yingxue and many other parents were standing outside the school entrance and waiting for the examinees inside.

Among the group of test-takers’ guardians, Zhou Yingxue was the only one who was dressed gorgeously. She outshone all the other parents.

Zhou Yingxue even kept glancing at a middle-aged woman next to her from time to time with a disdainful look.

The students’ parents standing around her rolled their eyes at Zhou Yingxue’s behavior.

At this moment, many students started streaming out of the school, and Zhou Yingxue’s spirits were immediately lifted. She saw Wang Yuchi and the others walking in front of the students. When they saw Zhou Yingxue, they waved wildly and shouted, “Ms. Yingxue!”

“So, how did you guys do?” Zhou Yingxue asked anxiously.

“Very good.” Wang Yuchi did not keep her in suspense. During this period, the person who had been most worried about how they would do was Zhou Yingxue. She cooked a variety of food for them every day and took care of their daily lives. Wang Yuchi and the others were grateful people. If they weren’t, they would not have survived until now by following Ren Xiaosu and Wang Fugui. Therefore, everyone was full of confidence at this moment. The first thing they did was tell Zhou Yingxue about this good news.

The special admissions examination was a written exam, and the results would be announced after seven days. Wang Yuchi and his fellow classmates were smart, well-prepared, diligent, and never lazy.

Before they suffered misfortune, they had been studying for their parents’ sake. But now, they were studying for themselves so they could be useful to Ren Xiaosu’s group in the future. This motivation in itself was already different from most other examinees.

They had a goal they wanted to achieve.

Moreover, the exams they took at the Li Consortium were much more difficult than what they had just gone through. As a matter of fact, when the other consortiums held their admission examination to select their university students, they would base the criteria on scientific research and only recruit a few hundred students each year. Meanwhile, Qinghe University recruited thousands of students every year, so the pressure on the students to compete was entirely different.

Therefore, Wang Yuchi and the others were able to finish the exam with ease.

Zhou Yingxue was overjoyed to hear their reply. “Let’s go! When we get back, Big Sis will cook something delicious for you guys.”

But on the way back, Zhou Yingxue suddenly said, “Er… I have something to attend to, so I’ll be leaving Luoyang City for a while. I think I’ve found out about your Brother Xiaosu’s whereabouts. I have to go and look for him to give him a piece of my mind. How could he just abandon all of you at Luoyang City without a care? If I were you, I couldn’t tolerate it!”
