Chapter 312: Chapter 312 Autonomous Enrollment Exam

Jiang Zhe had never heard her mention anything about the Xia Family before, but, seeing how she cared for and respected Grandma Xia, it was clear that her relationship with the Xia Family was not bad.

Jiang Zhe nodded without saying much.

Xia Enci hurried to catch up with Jiang Xiruo’s pace, rushing inside.

Qin Jingchen took Jiang Zhe to Beijing University.

"I’m going to take the exam and will contact you afterward."

Jiang Zhe carried her backpack and walked inside.

Qin Jingchen was ignored by her cold indifference, and couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Jiang Zhe’s mind was preoccupied with Qin Feng’s matter, indeed not too concerned about anything else.

The exams at Beijing University these two days were for self-recruitment, targeting outstanding national students.

Those who could participate in self-recruitment exams were the cream of the crop.

If one could achieve good results in the self-recruitment exams, there would be no need to participate in the college entrance exams, and they would be directly admitted afterward.

Therefore, the entire exam process was extremely strict.

As one of the top universities in the country, the content of the self-recruitment exams at Beijing University was not the most difficult, strictly speaking, but the scope of the test questions was broader, and the problem-solving application was very flexible. The comprehensive assessment of student abilities was very much on point.

Students from all over the country had arrived in Beijing earlier on.

At the moment, everyone was filling out registration forms, waiting for tomorrow’s exam.

In the crowd, Ding Xuexue was also present.

As a top student studying in Beijing, she had received an offer for the self-recruitment exam early on.

She could be said to be the most eye-catching person in this self-recruitment exam—outstanding in both talent and looks, with a record of attending elite schools in Beijing for both junior and senior high schools.

Even the students from Beijing University registering people for the exam included many who were her seniors from junior and senior high school, or friends she knew.

When Ding Xuexue got off the car and walked toward the school, many people greeted her, "Xuexue!"

"Xuexue, you came to take the exam too! I thought you wouldn’t come!"

"How could I not? I must seize every opportunity," Ding Xuexue replied with a modest smile, "Which way should I go to report, senior sister?"

"Right over here, here you go, your materials are all here," a senior sister, who seemed to have a good relationship with Ding Xuexue, had prepared her materials neatly before handing them over.

"Thank you, senior sister."

Ding Xuexue took the materials.

"You’re welcome. When we heard you were coming, many of our teachers were asking for your name. They all want to recruit you," the senior sister said, clearly having a good relationship with Ding Xuexue.

Ding Xuexue, who had a bit of a reputation in the appraisal world and also had excellent grades, was naturally favored by the older generation of teachers.

These seniors and peers felt proud of her; when mentioning her in front of their teachers, they couldn’t help but give extra praise, making her reputation grow even louder.

Students from Beijing University, whether they knew her or not, were giving her extra glances.

Other students participating in the self-recruitment exam looked at her, seeing how comfortable and at ease she was, and couldn’t help feeling envious.

Such students, they must truly be the favored ones of the heavens, right?

Surrounded by envious and adoring gazes, Ding Xuexue held her head even higher, her pride clearly showing.

A senior brother said, "After you finish registering, our class teacher would like to meet you. I wonder if you would do us the honor?"

"Which teacher might that be?" Ding Xuexue asked.

There were quite a few teachers who wished to meet her, and she might not even have the time.

"Professor Pang from the History Department."

This Professor Pang, who researched cultural relics, had long admired Ding Xuexue and was eager to meet her.

Professor Pang was quite renowned in the History Department, and after hearing this, Ding Xuexue smiled, "Alright, senior brother, I’ll make time later. Please tell Professor Pang I am honored to meet with him."

"That’s great, Professor Pang will definitely be delighted!"

Some people nearby didn’t recognize Ding Xuexue, casting various looks of envy and curiosity in her direction.

In a low voice, someone asked, "Just who is she, anyway?"

"Don’t you know? That’s Ding Xuexue from Beijing First Middle School. Beijing First Middle School is essentially an affiliate of Beijing University, and everyone who is able to get in there is incredibly talented. Not only are Ding Xuexue’s grades excellent, but she’s also very knowledgeable about cultural heritage and jewelry."

"Oh, it’s her. She’s the one who organized a few appraisal events before, right?"

"Exactly, her! Earlier on, she was the one who followed the appraiser master Deng Hui."

"Ah, no wonder then. She truly has some talent."

"Some? It’s more like a full score, if you ask me! Heaven itself seems to be spoon-feeding her!"

Not many knew about the time Ding Xuexue had a blunder in front of Jiang Zhe, and she certainly wouldn’t broadcast it widely herself.

Therefore, though she hadn’t seen Deng Hui for quite some time, she was still regarded as the talented Ding Xuexue with outstanding appraisal abilities by everyone.

This chatter only puffed up her pride even more.

As soon as Jiang Zhe entered, she was surrounded by these voices, with almost everyone discussing Ding Xuexue.

She frowned slightly, looking for the place where she needed to report.

Someone immediately noticed Jiang Zhe, "Who’s that?"

"Such an air of grace... but it’s hard to describe her demeanor."

When Jiang Zhe walked in, everyone stopped discussing Ding Xuexue, for no other reason than Jiang Zhe’s sheer ability to capture everyone’s attention.

Dressed in a school uniform, her eyes downcast as she walked in, it was difficult to ignore her presence.

When she slightly raised her head to look at the promotional signage, everyone was struck silent by her visage, unsure of what to say.

And she was completely oblivious, lost in her own world.

This air of detached independence, as well as her cool demeanor, made everyone all the more curious.

Ding Xuexue spotted Jiang Zhe at first glance.

Why is she here alone?

Shouldn’t Qin Jingchen be with her?

On second thought, Ding Xuexue understood—the absence of Qin Jingchen confirmed her suspicions that their relationship was just for show and lacked any real depth.

"Jiang Zhe!" Ding Xuexue called out to her.

Jiang Zhe was just getting her materials together and intended to fill them out when she lifted her gaze and focused on Ding Xuexue.

Then, without lingering, she looked down and pulled out a pen.

Ding Xuexue felt ignored, all her pride from before as if trampled by Jiang Zhe’s indifference.

She smiled, "Jiang Zhe, are you even qualified to take the independent examination?"

"If even you can, what’s so odd about me being here?" Jiang Zhe responded, her simplicity hiding a disdain that surprised those around her.

Isn’t she being a bit too presumptuous?

Ding Xuexue was momentarily stunned, having not expected Jiang Zhe to respond in such a manner.

"Come on Xuexue, don’t engage in pointless arguments. Fill out your information first."

A senior sister pulled her aside.

Ding Xuexue wasn’t one to hold grudges.

"Hello everyone. Thank you for your hard work." Someone approached with confident strides.

As soon as he appeared, the crowd couldn’t help but be dazzled.

"Zhao Senior!"

"Zhao Senior!"

Immediately, a bunch of people greeted him.
