Chapter 1550: Chapter 744: College Registration_2

"Mm!" Yan Fei replied, picking up his bag and starting to sling it over himself.

"Stop!" The girl yelled. "Why do you always carry the bag on you! I think it looks quite good the way it is now."

Even though she had just mocked Yan Fei for being smug, in the eyes of a lover, not only can Xi Shi appear, but Pan An can too. Boss Yan, with his thick brows, big eyes, tall stature, and long arms, had an extraordinary presence; even if his clothes weren’t very fashionable, he still looked exceptional.

It was all fine, but the moment Yan Fei slung that bag over, he suddenly seemed rather leisurely... It felt like it brought down his imposing aura.

Of course, the girl wanted her sweetheart to maintain the best condition on his first day of university, so she had some opinions about that magical little bag he always carried.

Yan Fei hesitated for a moment: "Then I won’t wear it!"

"Or... " The girl also hesitated. "You should wear it. It looks good on you too."

Hmph, making you carry that dark and ugly bag, so you don’t rely on having grown more handsome to flirt around at school. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have let you wear that slightly unfitting short-sleeved shirt...

Yan Fei had no idea the reason for the girl’s sudden change of thought, and he immediately happily slung the bag back on—used to having this magical little bag as a cover, suddenly going without it felt strange! If he were to absentmindedly pull out a two-meter-long stick from his pocket, that would be embarrassing!

Departure.

There was no direct bus to the school from their doorstep, but fortunately, the distance wasn’t far – just a fifteen-minute walk.

Upon arriving at the school, they found they were not particularly early. On the first day of registration, both new and returning students, especially the new students with their parents, had come early and were already staying at hotels or with friends and relatives, which made the campus quite lively early in the morning.

The two of them were very familiar with Agricultural University and found the place to pay the tuition fees just by following the signs. When they got there, they found it was bustling. Approaching, they heard a parent saying, "Teacher, the child’s uncle lives near the school. Can he stay at his uncle’s house?"

"Yes!" Another parent was asking. "We live here, just five bus stops away, and it’s convenient to come by bike. Can we not pay the accommodation fees?"

"If you have special circumstances, you must get the signature and approval of the school leaders; we are only responsible for collecting fees here. If you don’t have the school leader’s signature, we have to collect the full amount. It is no use talking to us about it here. Please understand," the teacher at the registration explained patiently.

"Then which leaders can we look for?" a parent asked.

"You need to find at least a vice principal!" one teacher explained. "In theory, we all have to stay on campus for unified management. Entering university, there are often social activities, which also makes it convenient for us to notify you. If you live off-campus, sometimes we can’t reach you, and that’s not appropriate. And for parents like you, if your household registration is not local and it is just a relative’s house, I’m afraid it’s not easy to get an approval. You can try, though. We really don’t have the authority here."

After finally persuading several parents to leave, Yan Fei, who was standing behind, was also feeling frustrated. Just as he was about to talk to Xu Xiaoyan about finding Professor He, the teacher called out to them: "The students at the back, please line up. It’s still early; don’t rush, you will definitely all be able to register this morning. You two are here to register too, right? Hurry up and come over..."

Yan Fei had no choice but to reply: "We’re here to register, but I also don’t want to stay at the school; I live not far from the school."

That teacher gestured with a wave of his hand: "Then you should quickly go get the school leader’s signature..."

"Wait a moment." Another teacher next to him took a glance at Yan Fei, then pulled out a piece of paper from underneath a stack on the table, looked at it, and continued to speak. "Are you Yan Fei?"

The teacher who had just waved his hand immediately stood up: "Are you Yan Fei? The one with exceptional admission to Cambridge University?"

"Yes!" Yan Fei nodded helplessly.

"I know you." The teacher got excited immediately. "You even published a novel during the summer vacation, Yan Fei, that’s right, it’s you. You don’t want to live on campus? No problem, no problem at all, the leadership specifically instructed that once you arrive, we should satisfy your conditions as much as possible."

Yan Fei saw it, the teacher who called for him to wait was holding a piece of paper with a photo attached, taken during his college entrance examination.

A parent who hadn’t gone far turned their head: "Is there still backdoor dealing in universities?"

That teacher was very defensive: "Do you know who this is? This is Yan Fei. He’s a celebrity from our province. Do you know the novel ’When Aircraft Carriers Meet Dinosaurs’ published recently? It was written by him."

Before anyone could murmur about what’s so great about writing a novel, the teacher continued: "He is Yan Fei, who was exceptionally admitted by Cambridge University after discovering an ancient insect previously declared extinct. After being admitted, he didn’t choose to go to Cambridge but chose our Agricultural University. And he got into our Agricultural University through the college entrance exam, his scores could have gotten him into much better schools..."

"What is Xiao Liu talking about?" While this teacher was speaking enthusiastically, a grey-haired elder came over. "Our Agricultural University isn’t that bad, is it?"

Teacher Liu, who was referred to as Xiao Liu, immediately felt awkward, he merely wanted to mention that Yan Fei had good grades. And what he said was indeed true, nowadays the Agricultural University in the Provincial City really isn’t comparable to some ordinary undergraduate institutions, such as Provincial City University and a few others.

But while facts are facts, everyone knows that if the leaders heard him saying this, it might be a bit... inappropriate.

Fortunately, Teacher Liu was quick to react and immediately pointed to Yan Fei, saying: "Principal Zhou, this is student Yan Fei. The one who was admitted by Cambridge University but chose to come to our school instead."

"I know him myself." Principal Zhou almost rolled his eyes at this and turned to greet Yan Fei warmly and familiarly. "Yan Fei, you’ve come to register, haven’t you? Any issues? Feel free to speak up, even if it’s a special case we will understand. Although our Agricultural University is a time-honored institution, we also know we need to keep up with the times!"

Xiao Liu awkwardly went along with a smile, while the group of students and parents behind him couldn’t help but scoff: Just a moment ago you weren’t saying that, it’s just an off-campus housing issue, and at the very least, a vice-principal’s signature is required. I bet it’s probably not that easy to get a signature, isn’t that rigid enough?

But everyone heard it, this one was the principal. They could argue with the teacher just now, but when facing the principal, they didn’t dare to speak recklessly. After all, being admitted to a university is a happy event, it’s just a housing issue, which is definitely better than leaving a bad impression with the principal.

Yan Fei actually knew Principal Zhou, as he often visited the school to see Professor He and Professor Qi, especially after Professor Qi moved to Sancha River Village with him, Principal Zhou had always been accompanying Professor Qi the whole time.

Seeing how friendly Principal Zhou was, Yan Fei felt a bit embarrassed: "Principal Zhou, it’s like this. I have a house not far from the school, and I was thinking... it’s not far to live there..."

"I know, I know." Principal Zhou was genuinely courteous. "You want to live off-campus? That’s easy. Xiao Liu, just take care of it for him. Any other issues? Just let me know."

Yan Fei shook his head: "Then thank you, Principal Zhou, there’s nothing else. I’ve always hoped to get into our Agricultural University, and as you know, I’ve often come here."

"Hahaha, of course, of course." Principal Zhou was very happy. "Having a student like you, we are very welcoming too! By the way, how is Teacher Qi doing at your place? I heard from Professor He who visited that the environment there is really nice; he made me envious. If it weren’t for my busy schedule, I would also like to enjoy it for a few days..."

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Principal Zhou even took the initiative to invite Yan Fei to visit, but Yan Fei declined and left his phone number before leaving with his hands behind his back.

Now the students and parents behind had nothing to say – the guy is so familiar with the principal, what can we say? Just listening to the conversation, you know that he was exceptionally admitted by Cambridge University; he chose not to go to Cambridge and came to Agricultural University instead...

Some parents thought about this and couldn’t help but change their perspective, looking at Yan Fei with a bit of sympathy: This kid seems smart; why did he choose such a lousy school and not go to Cambridge University? Could something be wrong with his mind?

Quite a few thought this way, but Yan Fei didn’t care, he had to hurry up to pay the registration fee and complete his procedures, as he still had to accompany his wife to register!
