Chapter 172: Chapter 172: Unsatisfactory Results

"Alright then!"

Looking at Ye Qianqian’s fluttering big eyes, the policewoman finally calmed down, though she still muttered, "It really takes all kinds to make a world. How can such an adorable little sister have such a terrible older brother!"

"You..." With Ye Fei’s sharp hearing, he naturally heard everything clearly.

But Ye Qianqian quickly got into the car and said, "Brother, I think I did pretty well on today’s exam! Take me somewhere nice to eat, okay?"

"Did pretty well?"

Hearing Ye Qianqian’s words, Ye Fei finally smiled. "Alright! What do you want to eat? It’s on me!"

Saying this, Ye Fei started the car and headed straight to the Purple Mist Building with Ye Qianqian...

For four consecutive days, Ye Fei stayed with Ye Qianqian in the presidential suite of the Purple Mist Building, driving her to her exams every day. Only after Ye Qianqian’s college entrance exams were completely over did the two return to the Binjiang Ye Family’s residence.

After that, Ye Fei went into secluded cultivation, continuing to refine the Nine Revolutions Golden Spirit Pill as a reserve for future cultivation.

However, just as Ye Fei completed his twelfth batch of Nine Revolutions Golden Spirit Pills, three weeks later, a commotion outside made him frown and step out of his room.

"Ren Yuan, what’s going on? Why is it so noisy?"

As soon as he walked out, Ye Fei immediately looked at Ren Yuan, who was serving as his protector, and asked.

"Reporting to the master, it’s... it’s Miss Qianqian!" Ren Yuan hesitated as he spoke.

"Qianqian? What happened to her? Could it be that the college entrance exam results are out?" Ye Fei’s eyes lit up as he asked.

"They... they are out, but..."

At this point, Ren Yuan fell silent.

Seeing this, Ye Fei’s brows furrowed at once. "But what? Did Qianqian not do well?"

"It’s... it’s very bad! Her total score didn’t even seem to reach the passing line for a tier-three college!" Ren Yuan took a deep breath and said.

"How is that possible!"

Ye Fei’s frown deepened immediately.

Ye Qianqian’s performance was something he was well aware of.

Her scores in the first, second, and third mock exams were all among the best in her school. Even after transferring to Binjiang, her results were still top-notch. How could she possibly not even reach the passing line for a tier-three college?

But no matter what, Ye Fei immediately strode toward the front yard.

He knew very well that his beloved little sister had always hoped to attend Yuntai University, just like him. Now, with such results, she must be devastated.

What surprised Ye Fei, however, was that when he reached the front yard’s hall, although both Father Ye and Mother Ye wore expressions of dejection, and the rest of the Ye Family seemed anxious, Ye Qianqian remained calm. She sat quietly, holding a copy of a newspaper, without saying a word.

Seeing this, Ye Fei immediately stepped in. The hall fell silent at once.

"Qianqian, your brother is here!" Ye Fei said with a smile as he looked at Ye Qianqian.

"Brother!"

Ye Qianqian raised her head to glance at Ye Fei and said, "Brother, I got everything right!"

"What do you mean?" Ye Fei asked, puzzled.

"These are the answers published in today’s newspaper. I got them all right! But my score didn’t even reach the tier-three college line!" Ye Qianqian said, a trace of determination glimmering in her eyes.

Got all the answers right?

But the score didn’t even reach tier-three?

Hearing Ye Qianqian’s words, Ye Fei frowned deeply.

From the newspaper in Ye Qianqian’s hands, Ye Fei could clearly see the marks and notes she had made. Coupled with his understanding of his sister, he knew she would never use such a poorly crafted lie to cover up a bad performance.

"Xiao Fei, do you think there might have been a grading error? Or maybe Qianqian’s results were mixed up with someone else’s? After all, there are so many students and test papers in the college entrance exams!" Mother Ye, Su Lingyun, suddenly suggested.

"Mixed up with someone else’s?"

After hearing this, Ye Fei nodded and said, "Alright then. I’ll look into it right away!"

With that, Ye Fei immediately dialed Guo Wenyuan’s number.

On the other end of the line, Guo Wenyuan listened to Ye Fei’s instructions and promptly agreed to investigate.

"Alright then, I’ll head to Yuntai. Qianqian, don’t worry; your brother will bring back good news!"

Ye Fei said as he stepped out of the house...

Driving straight for about four hours, Ye Fei finally stood at the entrance of the Yuntai Education Bureau, shaking his head with a smile.

In truth, the reason Ye Fei had arranged for Ye Qianqian to take her exams in Yuntai was that Yuntai was part of Su Province, and Su Province was, more or less, his domain.

It was a backup plan in case Ye Qianqian didn’t achieve her desired score.

After all, even as a Cultivator, Ye Fei found education a baffling area. He couldn’t very well use the Heavenly Slash Demon Saber to threaten a school principal into admitting Ye Qianqian, could he?

After all, ordinary folks had no idea about Ye Fei’s towering reputation in the Cultivation World.

In such matters, leveraging his identity as a major player in Su Province was far more effective than flaunting his titles as an Innate Martial King or a cultivator at the Divine Martial Realm.

Still, he hadn’t expected it would come into play so quickly!

"Mr. Ye, as soon as you called, I made all the necessary arrangements. Director Qian is waiting for us inside!" Guo Wenyuan, who was already waiting at the entrance, said with a smile.

"Good, let’s go in then!" Ye Fei nodded slightly after hearing this, stepping through the doors of the Education Bureau.

Before long, with Guo Wenyuan leading the way, the two knocked on the door of the education bureau’s director’s office.

"Oh, if it isn’t Mr. Guo! Please, come in, come in! Let me pour you some tea!"

Inside the office, Director Qian, a chubby man, immediately greeted them with a smile when he saw Guo Wenyuan and Ye Fei walk in.

However, Guo Wenyuan frowned slightly.

It was evident that Director Qian’s eyes were fixated on him, completely ignoring Ye Fei.

How could Guo Wenyuan tolerate that?

So, he immediately stepped back and said, "Director Qian, no need to be so formal with me. I’m here to accompany Mr. Ye today."

Mr. Ye?

Upon hearing this, Director Qian was clearly taken aback.

At first, seeing Ye Fei, a young man in his late teens, he had assumed he was some junior relative of Guo Wenyuan.

But now, listening to Guo Wenyuan’s words, this seemed far from ordinary!

Thinking of this, Director Qian curiously asked, "Mr. Guo, who exactly is this Mr. Ye?"

"This Mr. Ye holds a highly prestigious position. He is none other than the chairman of Su Tian Group, which owns the Purple Mist Building!" Guo Wenyuan promptly introduced.

Purple Mist Building? Su Tian Group?

Director Qian grew even more puzzled. With his position, he hadn’t been qualified to attend the recent Purple Mist Building Summit and naturally didn’t recognize Ye Fei.

Still, since Guo Wenyuan addressed him with such reverence, Director Qian plastered on a smile and said to Ye Fei, "So it’s Chairman Ye! A pleasure to meet you. May I ask what brings you to see me today?"

"It’s like this: my younger sister took part in the college entrance exams this year, but her results do not match what she had anticipated. I’d like to request to review her exam papers," Ye Fei stated directly.

College entrance exams?

Results not as expected?

As Director Qian listened, he inwardly sneered.

Results not as expected, my foot! She probably just didn’t perform well.

Having held this position in the education bureau for several years, Director Qian had seen countless cases of students’ families pulling strings for similar reasons.

Normally, he would expect such families to "offer" him a token of appreciation.

However, since Ye Fei was accompanied by Guo and was also a chairman of Su Tian Group, Director Qian immediately said with a smile, "Oh, is that so? No problem at all! You should have your sister’s exam admission number, right? Just give it to me, and I’ll look into it for you right away!"

"Alright! My sister’s name is Ye Qianqian, and her admission number is 489789..."

Before Ye Fei could finish, Director Qian suddenly interrupted, "Your sister’s name is... what?"

"Ye Qianqian. Ye as in the leaf, and Qian as in the elegant silhouette," Ye Fei explained with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Director Qian’s expression suddenly changed.

He had only recently tampered with certain college entrance exam results, and one of the tampered students’ names was Ye Qianqian.
