164: President of Tong University

President of Tong University

4"Congratulations, CEO Qin! You are blessed to have such a talented daughter!"

"Thank you, CEO Li. Please enjoy the party."

"Congratulations, Muran, you did so well! You look very beautiful today!"

"Sis Lin, you're the beautiful one today, alright? I might not even measure up to you!"

Inside the wedding hall, Qin Yicheng was happily greeting the guests and chatting with some older CEOs in the top industry.

At that moment, he was relieved that he had such an outstanding daughter.

Muran was his lucky star!

On the other hand, Xi Yaohua was also very happy. Since Qin Muran was his girlfriend, he could show her off in front of his business partners.

"I heard that many universities are vying for Qin Muran, is it true?" one of the guests asked another.

"Why won't it be true? After all she is placed fifth in the province. It would be abnormal if nobody is vying for her," another guest said calmly as if just stating a fact.

Many of these people were the parents of students from class three. They wanted to see if any connections could be built with different universities through Qin Muran.

These kind of occasions were most suitable for all sorts of networking. It was also the best opportunity to make connections and discuss collaborations. Basically, everyone had the same goals.

Yang Lin and Mu Yuyin surrounded Qin Muran at the banquet. Chen Xiang and Fu Jingze were also there. These students had average scores but they were happy with their friend's achievement. They were more happy when they came to know that Qin Yan would not be able to appear in the exam due to her accident.

"Muran, we are proud of you. You are the pride of Class three," Yang Lin exclaimed proudly.

"Yang Lin is right, you are the best," Mu Yuyin held one of Qin Muran's arms before asking, "By the way, Muran, we heard that the principal of Hua university contacted you. Is it true?"

Qin Muran's eyes were filled with pride but she said calmly, "It's not a big deal."

Since she was the main star of the banquet, everyone had an eye on her. When they heard Mu Yuyin and Qin Muran, a series of exclaimations sounded out.

Beijing University and Hua University were the top universities of China. They were both competitors and the presidents of both the universities were quite influential people. There might be very few people who did not recognize them.

Other than being the Presidents of the top two universities, President Yan of Beijing University and President Ma of Hua university had many other achievements in the society. They had contributed a lot to improve the education system of the country, especially President Yan.

So, a call from President of Hua University was not to be underestimated. The people in the banquet started looking at Qin Muran in another light.

"That's great, Muran. Then have you thought of which university you want to go to?" Chen Xiang asked her. Although he could not get enrolled in the same university as Qin Muran because of his marks, but he wanted to know which university she wished to go to.

Xi Yaohua was standing at some distance from Qin Muran but could hear Chen Xiang. His face darkened for a moment as he understood that Chen Xiang wanted to curry favour with Qin Muran. But a minute later, his face regained composure as he realised that people were pleased with his girl and later he would not be ashamed of her while socializing. She could please the big bosses too.

Qin Muran thought for a while before replying, "I haven't decided yet. President Ma gave me many perks and advantages for entering the Hua University. I would get a full scholarship and so on. Let's see what the other universities have to offer. I want to make an informed decision."

The other guests were surprised at what they heard. Although the fifth topper was entitled to many benefits, but Hua University was the top university of the country. Such benefits from Hua University were rare for someone. It seemed that Qin Muran was highly thought of by Hua University.

At this moment, someone from the crowd shouted in disbelief, "The one at the entrance… That… Isn't that the Director of Tong University?"

In an instant, everyone subconsciously looked towards the entrance.

At first glance, they could not notice anything.

Soon, the crowd unexpectedly saw not only the Director of Tong University but also the President of Tong University beside him.

Immediately, several people recognized the two of them. "That's right…That's the director of Tong University. And President of Tong University!"

"What? The one beside the director is the President?"

"Oh my God! I didn't expect that the President of Tong University would come himself! He has never appeared at such an occasion!"

"It looks like all the major universities are vying for Qin Muran for the President and Director to come here themselves."

With the appearance of these two people, almost all of the guests' attention was fixated on the entrance. Not too far away, Qin Muran and Qin Yicheng exchanged a look before they walked up quickly to greet them.

They did not expect for President Hao to come himself!

Under all of the guests' watchful scrutiny, the star of the night, Qin Muran, had personally gone over to greet them at the hall entrance, she respectfully called out, "President Hao, Director Gu… This way please…"

Qin Yicheng was eager to greet the guests, "President Hao, we didn't expect you to come in person. Director Gu, welcome, welcome."

At the entrance, just as Qin Muran and Qin Yicheng were enthusiastically making small talk, Director Gu finally spoke.

He looked towards President Hao and said hurriedly, "President, you go further. I will handle it here. If you go any later, you will not be able to make it."

President Hao nodded and made his way upstairs without turning his head back at all…

Qin Muran, Lu Yaran, Qin Yicheng, Xi Yaohua… and all the guests behind them were speechless.

There had been at least more than ten seconds of silence before the huge hall of people who had been ditched started to react…

What… What was going on?

"What is happening? I'm completely confused…"

"Did you guys hear that just now? Director Gu said something about going to be late. The President seems to be here for some other event!"

"Hmm, That's odd…"

Everyone looked towards Director Gu who was standing at the entrance. The Qin family hurriedly welcomed him in, "Director Gu, we are sorry for being dazed. We just couldn't understand where President Hao went. Please come in."

Director Gu sighed. This was not what he had expected. They had decided that he would visit Qin Muran while President Hao would go directly to the top floor. They had just stopped for asking the directions when Qin family stopped them.

"President Hao has another business to attend to. Sorry for the trouble," He apologized in an amicable tone.

He then turned to Qin Muran, "Student Qin Muran, would you like to come to Tong University..."

As Director Gu spoke, other people in the hall especially the parents of students of class three had been getting phone calls one after another and they answered the calls quietly.

"What? President of Nan University… Upstairs?"

"Even President of Jiang University? Are you sure? Don't joke with me! My son wants to enroll into Jiang University!"

"That doesn't sound possible. Okay… I'll go and take a look…"

With the calls drawing the attention away from Qin Muran's banquet, there were lesser and lesser guests…

Students and their parents were bidding farewell to Qin Yicheng and Lu Yaran.

"Chairman Qin, I have to apologize. There's some emergency at my company, and I have to leave now. Congratulations again! Sorry!"

"It's alright. Your attendance itself is my pleasure. Thank you, CEO Wang!"

After Qin Yicheng bade farewell to one guest, another one came to him. "Mr. Qin, my son doesn't feel quite well and I forgot that I have a meeting scheduled today. I've got to go now. I apologize in advance!"

Qin Yicheng quickly replied, "Not at all, let me send you off!"

"It's okay. Stay here! I'll leave on my own…"

At first, Qin Yicheng did not realize something was wrong. Only until the fifth person came to him, he knew that things were odd.4

At the same time, Lu Yaran was faced with the same situation as well.

Unfortunately, Director Gu was here, so they did not have much time to think about it.

At the same time on the top floor.

The class four was enjoying the party when Director Huang of the Academic Affairs Office of Shengyang High school walked over, followed by a middle-aged man who looked very scholarly.

The students were stunned. Who would expect the Director of Academic Affairs office to come to such a party?

"Director Huang." The students stood up and gave way after greeting him politely.
