Chapter 714: Chapter 714: Welcome Newcomers Party

Luo Qiao thought for a moment before continuing to say, "Today, I also briefly looked through the textbooks, and it seems that I have already learned everything."

"So, are you going to skip a grade?"

"Yes, my master had already mentioned before the term started, asking me to skip directly to the second year next semester."

"My Qiaoqiao is just amazing."

"You can’t praise me like that, I’m afraid my tail might wag up to the sky."

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was the eve of National Day. The school announced a three-day holiday for National Day, but tonight there was a welcome party.

After school started, Luo Qiao went home twice, once for her big brother’s wedding and once for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

During this time, she went through all her textbooks once, and after National Day, she would follow her master to the affiliated hospital to start practicing.

She didn’t want others to gossip, nor did she want to trouble her master, so she raced against the clock to review all the books for this semester, sought the counselor for the papers from the previous year and did them twice, and only after making sure there were no issues did she approach the department head to ask for an early examination.

With Yang Jiancheng’s recommendation and guarantee, and knowing that Luo Qiao had almost finished all the university courses, the department head did not want a capable student to waste her time.

Thus, he said, "The school leadership is aware of your situation, and with Professor Yang’s guarantee, we believe you won’t let the department down. After consulting with the leadership, we have decided to make a special case for you. However, you must pass the exams for each course and obtain the corresponding credits before you’re allowed to skip a grade. Do you understand?"

Luo Qiao nodded, "I am extremely grateful to you, Director, and the school leadership for giving me such an opportunity. I understand what you’ve just said, and I will complete all the credits for my first year before skipping a grade."

Tonight, the school was holding a welcoming party in the auditorium. The cultural and entertainment committee member of the class had started preparing the performances in advance, and she, as the publicity committee member, had also put in a lot of effort. Their class had two items prepared.

The two items reported by their class were a sketch called "Dreams" and a solo song "Childhood," performed by a female student named Tong Yao in their class.

"Dreams" was a sketch Luo Qiao helped write. It mainly told the story of three people from different regions, with different fates but the same dream. In the end, through hard work, they made it to university—a very inspiring story.

The counselor and class committee members had high hopes for this item, and the students participating in the performance worked very hard. They even pondered over the plot during meals. As for the solo song, there was no need to say more. Tong Yao had wanted to be the class’s cultural and entertainment committee member, but unfortunately, everyone chose Yan Ruyue instead.

Thus, she wanted to seize this opportunity to show her face and prove that she was more excellent than Yan Ruyue.

The welcoming party was held as scheduled, and the sketch "Dreams" received a warm welcome from everyone. The applause lasted for a long time, touching the teachers and students in attendance, as if they saw their past selves.

The student performers came out for a curtain call twice before heading backstage.

Just when Luo Qiao was able to relax, Yan Ruyue came over with a worried look, "Luo Qiao, there’s trouble?"

Luo Qiao looked at Yan Ruyue with confusion, "What kind of trouble?"

Yan Ruyue glanced at other students who were looking over and whispered, "Tong Yao’s throat has a problem. It’s hurting badly now, and she’s afraid she won’t be able to sing."

Seeing that their class’s preparation for the performance had been so successful, the students had been hoping that their class, Clinical Class One, might win a decent place among the new students. But if Tong Yao had a problem, their overall score would be doomed.

A classmate said, "Quick, find a backup." They were worried that without this item, they might not get a good class ranking.

Yan Ruyue gave that person a withering look, "Where do you expect me to find a substitute at this time?"

Now everyone truly was at a loss for ideas. Luo Qiao said, "Come on, let’s go backstage and see."

Tong Yao’s item was scheduled later, so they wanted to check whether it could still be salvaged. By the time Luo Qiao and Yan Ruyue arrived, the counselor and Jiancheng were already there. Tong Yao had been so eager to perform that she was afraid of not singing well, resulting in her practicing intensively these past few days.

It was probably because she hadn’t rested well during this period and hadn’t taken good care of her throat. Plus, due to excessive excitement, she started feeling some discomfort in her throat this morning but thought it would be fine if she just drank more water. In the afternoon, she felt slightly better and began practicing again.

However, after dinner, her throat hurt so badly she could hardly bear it, and she kept wanting to cough; her voice was now somewhat hoarse and she could barely speak.
