Chapter 242: Chapter 242: Return to Mianyang Town (Bonus 1)
She took a rickshaw from outside the train station directly to Aunt Ge’s house.
At this hour, both Aunt Ge and Fifth Aunt hadn’t gone to set up their stalls yet; they were at home preparing things for the afternoon.
Hearing the knock on the door, Chunya put down her work and went to open the door. When she saw Lin Xiang standing there, she instinctively rubbed her eyes, "Niuzi, you’re back!"
Chunya’s voice was so loud that people in the courtyard heard the commotion and gathered around.
Dong Sheng rushed into Lin Xiang’s arms, looked up at her with eager eyes, "Sister Niu, you’re finally back! Do you know how much I’ve missed you during this time?"
Lin Xiang reached out and pinched Dong Sheng’s cheek, "You’ve lost weight, gotten darker."
Fifth Aunt cut a piece of watermelon for Lin Xiang, "Indeed, running out twice a day, he’s tanned like a lump of coal."
Dong Sheng grinned, his white teeth contrasting sharply with his dark skin.
Aunt Ge greeted Lin Xiang and then lowered her voice to ask seriously, "Niuzi, is there a problem with the admission letter?"
Seeing Lin Xiang nod, everyone’s hearts in the courtyard sank heavily.
Lin Xiang had achieved the top score in Mianyang Town, something everyone in the courtyard knew. After the college entrance exam results came out, Ge Yuanyi immediately called Lin Xiang to share the good news.
They had been eagerly waiting for Lin Xiang’s admission letter.
"What on earth happened? Was it that teacher of yours causing trouble? I’ve heard people say that there are many imposters now, could it be...?"
"No," Lin Xiang stated honestly without beating around the bush, "After you called me the day before yesterday, I realized there might be a problem with my admission letter. So, accompanied by my brother, I went to the admissions office of Huaqing University, ed the situation truthfully, and under the supervision of several teachers, I took a test and got a new admission letter."
"Even if someone intercepted my admission letter, they couldn’t impersonate me."
Because her admission letter had the signatures of all the teachers in the admissions office, it was unique and couldn’t be impersonated by anyone else.
But Lin Xiang still needed to come back to figure out what exactly happened.
She genuinely hoped this matter had nothing to do with Yu Xiumei.
Fifth Aunt and Aunt Ge both patted their chests, breathing heavily, "It’s good that everything is okay, it’s good. You have no idea how worried we’ve been over the past few days. You’re definitely going to Huaqing University, right?"
"Yes, and I’ve already selected my major."
Lin Xiang didn’t mention what major she chose, and no one in the courtyard asked.
Her gaze fell on Ge Yuanyi, and she asked with concern, "Yuanyi, which university were you admitted to?"
Ge Yuanyi scored over 420 points; although it was far off from Lin Xiang, it was still quite a good score.
She smiled, pursed her lips, and ran back into the house. When she came out again, she was holding an admission letter.
Lin Xiang took it and looked, "Beijing Medical College?"
Ge Yuanyi nodded shyly, "Yes, I want to study medicine, specifically orthopedics. I want to heal my brother’s leg."
Ge Yuanyi didn’t know if Beijing Medical College was the best medical college in Hua Country, but she thought a school ranking high in Beijing couldn’t be too bad.
Besides, Lin Xiang was in Beijing.
Lin Xiang was also happy that Ge Yuanyi could be at the same university as her, "We can accompany each other in Beijing. Yuanyi, when does your school start?"
"The ing time on the admission notice is August 26th, but I might go a few days earlier. After all, I’m unfamiliar with the land and people in Beijing, so I need to familiarize myself with the environment first."
Lin Xiang thought for a moment, "I’ll be here for two more days to handle some things, then you can go to Beijing with me. Although it’s a few days earlier than you planned, it’ll be safer with me around."
Ge Yuanyi nodded eagerly, "Okay, I’ll start packing these two days."
Lin Xiang didn’t stay long at Aunt Ge’s; she went to Town First Middle School, heading directly to Principal Wu’s office.
"Student Lin Xiang, the school really hasn’t received your admission letter." Principal Wu frowned tightly, "I called the provincial education department, asked for Huaqing University’s admissions office number, and personally called them. The admissions office teacher told me that your admission letter has already been issued."
Principal Wu’s expression was grave, "I’m trying to find out what went wrong. Don’t worry, student Lin Xiang, the school will find your admission letter and stand up for you."
Lin Xiang thought, no matter how hard Principal Wu tried, he couldn’t recover her intercepted admission letter.
Those who could intercept her admission letter invisibly must have considerable power and position. For Principal Wu to contend with them would be like striking a stone with an egg.
The reason why she came was mainly to figure out what role Principal Wu played in this incident.
From what it seemed now, Principal Wu probably didn’t know who intercepted her admission letter.
He wasn’t involved in this matter.
"Thank you, Principal Wu. Please help me, otherwise, I won’t be able to attend university."
Principal Wu pondered for a moment and said to Lin Xiang, "Not necessarily! Even without the admission letter, I’ll figure out a way for you to attend university. I heard that last year a case of impersonation also occurred at a middle school in the provincial city, but it was corrected in time after discovery."
"Although we don’t have the admission letter now, fortunately, the school year hasn’t started, and you haven’t ed yet. There’s still time."
"Student Lin Xiang, you must wait a few more days. I’ve already bought the train ticket, I’ll go to the provincial city tomorrow morning and find out what methods were used at the time. Don’t worry, even if I have to risk this old face of mine, I won’t let you go without attending school!"
Principal Wu’s words were unadorned with flowery rhetoric, entirely genuine, warming Lin Xiang’s heart and making her eyes slightly misty.
She felt that using Principal Wu this way was truly unkind of her.
But there was no choice, she had to seek justice for herself.
Lin Xiang stepped back and bowed deeply to Principal Wu, "Principal Wu, thank you for your concern."
"Child, what are you doing!" Principal Wu hurriedly helped Lin Xiang up, "This is our school’s fault, and this is my responsibility as the principal."
"You’ve been on the train; you must be exhausted. Go home and rest first. Once I return from the provincial city tomorrow, I’ll contact you to discuss what approach we should take to solve this issue, okay?"
