Reborn as a Mortal Heiress Pampered by Big Shots-Chapter 258 - 222 only took one night? _2

The call connected, and after briefly exchanging pleasantries, Tian Hanwen got straight to the point, mentioning Xia Ye’s decision to attend Beijing University.

A sweet date to offer.

Principal Chen let out a long sigh of relief, his joy written all over his face, "That’s wonderful, I appreciate your special notification, Principal Tian. Please also convey that the scholarships and resource allocations promised to Yeye will certainly be prepared on our end."

Tian Hanwen didn’t immediately agree, just gave a faint smile, "Those are minor issues, there is something else... I was hoping you might be able to help with."

Principal Chen was momentarily startled, "Oh? What is it? As long as it’s within my capabilities, I will definitely..."

"Yeye wants to attend your Department of Biomedical Sciences at Beijing University."

"Biomed..." Principal Chen’s solemn promise was cut short when he heard Tian Hanwen’s actual request, choking on his words.

Tian Hanwen knew that the spots available in this department were indeed very limited, unlike any other major, and it would definitely not be an easy task to secure a place.

But then again, if it were easy, there’d be no need to speak with Principal Chen, would there?

Tian Hanwen didn’t add anything else, just serenely smiled and said, "It’s okay if you find it difficult, Principal Chen. Yeye mentioned that she was also hesitating about the Chinese department at Yan University..."

It was as if Principal Chen had almost spat out a mouthful of old blood, "The Chinese department?! That’s far inferior to our Biomedical Sciences at Beijing University! It’s not a problem, not a problem at all. Give me some time, and once there’s news, I’ll contact the Xia Family directly. Thank you for your trouble, Principal Tian."

Wang Dahai’s car stopped in the courtyard, and Xia Ye returned from school.

As she entered the house, Xia Yuzheng was in the living room on the phone.

Seeing his daughter’s return, he rushed to the phone as if seeing a savior, "Please hold on, let me ask my daughter what she thinks..."

Xia Ye glanced over, "Who’s calling?"

Xia Yuzheng covered the receiver with his hand, "It’s from Beijing University."

Xia Ye shrugged her shoulders, "I’ve already decided to go to Beijing University, why are they still calling?"

Xia Yuzheng replied with a wry smile, "This time it’s from one of the departments..."

In the past few days, the phone at home rang more for his daughter than for him, the Director Xia.

He thought things would settle down after her school choice was finalized, but unexpectedly, within the same university, there was now inter-departmental competition.

Xia Yuzheng had already taken a call from a head of the Automation Department.

And now another one, Xia Yuzheng continued looking at his daughter, "It’s Professor Cao from the Mathematics Department."

He didn’t understand, so he said the words very casually.

But if any student from First Middle School were to hear this, they would be completely dumbfounded.

At Beijing University’s Mathematics Department, there was only one Professor Cao, the very person involved in setting this year’s advanced mathematics exam questions—

Xia Ye blurted out, using the nickname other students used in private, "Oh, the ’old pervert.’"

Xia Yuzheng was shocked, "Old pervert?"

He couldn’t let his precious daughter apply to that department!

In his anxiety, he spoke a bit louder, and though his hand was covering the receiver, the words "old pervert" clearly made their way through.

Professor Cao:...

Surely...they aren’t talking about him, right?

Besides the highly aloof Department of Biomedical Sciences, other departments were all eager to recruit Xia Ye, the talented young girl. Naturally, Professor Cao was no exception.

Knowing this year’s difficulty in mathematics, and yet she managed to easily achieve full marks, Professor Cao was already eager to discuss with her the famous difficult problems in mathematical history.

A few seconds later, Xia Yuzheng realized he had been somewhat impolite and hastily asked his daughter, "Yeye, have you decided which department you want to apply to?" freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Xia Ye: "The Department of Biomedical Sciences."

Xia Yuzheng responded and then said to the phone, "I’m sorry, Professor Cao, my daughter has decided to apply for the Department of Biomedical Sciences."

The Xia Family had reached a consensus regarding Xia Ye’s choice of major: whatever major Xia Ye wants to study, they would support her unconditionally.

After all, they felt that whichever Xia Ye chose, Beijing University was the one benefiting.

The universities contacted by Xia Tiao’s O League and Xia Xian’s research institute were now out of luck.

The director of the art school Xu He had approached previously, after seeing the news about the Xia family’s daughter achieving full marks in the college entrance examination, had even called several times, changing their previously arrogant attitude, cordially inviting Xia Ye to their school, and even offering the possibility of direct admission without needing to take the art exam.

The positions of both parties had completely switched, and on the phone, Xu He now took the upper hand.

"I’m sorry, but we are not considering it at the moment."

With just one sentence, polite and gentle, yet carrying a hint of pride.

Now, hearing Xia Ye say she wanted to apply for the Department of Biomedical Sciences, Xia Yuzheng reacted quite naturally.
