Chapter 653: Yiyi, I Think You’ll Be Famous Again Soon
Not long after Zi Yi and Lu Jingye reached home, they received a phone call from the Dou Family.
They knew that there were people coming after Zi Yi during this period of time and there was no need to mention how worried they were when they heard of the incident at the seafood restaurant.
Dou Jingning said over the phone, “Except for when you head to school, don’t run around. If it’s unsafe, follow me to the research base.”
Zi Yi obediently answered and promised not to go out with others. Only then did she manage to hang up the phone.
The next day.
Zi Yi entered into her examination mode.
Her exams were different from the others. She would take one subject every half an hour and all the subjects of a single major in one day.
After her exams in the morning ended, Zi Yi received a phone call from Dou Xiangling.
She was waiting for her at the student canteen near the School of Liberal Arts. When Zi Yi came over, Dou Xiangling had already ordered the food for both of them.
“Yiyi, over here.”
Zi Yi walked over and took a seat.
Dou Xiangling first asked about how her exams were.
“The questions were all very simple.”
Zi Yi took the paper for her major at the School of Information Technology and there just so happened to be students from that school who were here to have lunch. Moreover, they were seated next to them.
As soon as the two students heard what Zi Yi said, they leaned over and asked, “Student Zi, can you tell us what type of questions you received for the exams?”
Zi Yi glanced at the male and female students in front of her and said, “Our questions should be different.”
Both of them were a little disappointed. In fact, they didn’t really have the intention to take shortcuts, just that they had been burnt out recently from revising and wanted to know some of the more specific revision areas.
The female was unwilling to give up. “How can it be different? Then tell me a question you answered on the exam?”
Zi Yi looked at the female student with a smile that did not quite look like a smile.
The female student turned red from her stare.
Dou Xiangling laughed and said to the female student, “Since Zi Yi said that her exam questions are different from yours, it would certainly be the case.”
She then turned to Zi Yi and said, “Yiyi, why don’t you randomly pick out a simple question?”
Zi Yi thought about it and nodded her head. She then casually mentioned a question that she found to be the easiest.
Subsequently, she saw the two students looking at her with a stunned expression.
“What? Is there a problem?”
The male student swallowed his saliva and said, “Student Zi, are you sure you were tested on the contents taught to Year 1’s?”
Zi Yi tilted her head to the side and said, “I’m not exactly sure.”
The two students stared at her and then said, “Sorry to have disturbed you.”
They despondently returned to their seats.
Dou Xiangling looked at the two students who were holding onto their phones and typing at a quick speed. She then said with a smile, “Yiyi, I think you’ll become famous again soon.”
Zi Yi revealed an innocent expression.
The two students had uploaded a post onto the school forum.
When they uploaded the random question Zi Yi told them onto the school forum, they even added a question. “Which senior can help me dispel my doubts? Which year does this question belong to?”
For a moment, there were countless replies to the post.
All of them were replies from the School of Information Technology.
“Student, are you sure these were the G.o.ddess’ exam questions? This is clearly content that is taught in Year 4!”
It was like a stone thrown into the water that stirred up a ma.s.sive wave.
The school forum had exploded in excitement.
The target of the discussion was currently enjoying her lunch.
Dou Xiangling looked at how Zi Yi ate faster than usual and said with a smile, “You have too many exams packed into a day. Can your body take it?”
Zi Yi nodded her head. “Yea. I’m just more hungry than usual.”
“Then go and buy some snacks and bring them along with you. You can have some snacks after finis.h.i.+ng each exam.”
Dou Xiangling thought about it and suddenly thought of how she had snacks in her office. “I took plenty of wedding candies from your wedding the previous time. Wait for me, I’ll go grab some for you.”
The wedding candies that were given out during Zi Yi’s wedding were very delicious. Dou Xiangling was not someone who was fond of eating snacks, but when she heard that there were still many leftovers at home, she could not help but bring some to keep in her office.
Zi Yi hastily nodded her head in response. “Sure!”
After lunch, they headed off to Dou Xiangling’s office together.
There were many types of painting materials in Dou Xiangling’s office and they had piled up so much that they nearly occupied half the room.
When they entered the office, Dou Xiangling said to her, “Yiyi, you can take a seat first. I’ll go grab the candies for you.”
Dou Xiangling headed to her table to grab the candies, while Zi Yi walked around to look at her painting materials. “Cousin, why did you prepare so many paints?”
Dou Xiangling looked up at the paints and smiled. “Ian sent them over. He said that it would be a gift for us for the opening of our gallery.”
Ian had left the third day after the news of Zi Yi’s car accident happened. He knew that they were safe and sound.
Zi Yi thought of how Ian said that he wanted to chase her cousin and so, she casually asked, “What do you think of Ian as a person?”
Dou Xiangling did not think too deeply. She tilted her head and thought for a moment, but what surfaced in her mind was Ian’s drunken appearance where he was playing the violin for an entire night. In the end, she said with a smile, “He’s a pretty nice person, and also… rather rich.”
Zi Yi somehow laughed after hearing her cousin’s evaluation of Ian.
She did not continue to ask further. After Dou Xiangling packed the candies into a bag for her, the both of them chatted about the art gallery.
“A lot of the decoration materials that we ordered before will be arriving in the following days. I will most likely be spending most of my time there during the next few days. Yiyi, once your exams end, our art gallery will have undergone a change.”
Speaking of which, Dou Xiangling could not help but smile. It was as if she could see their art gallery that had been decorated.
Zi Yi nodded her head. “Then I’ll give you a few robots as helpers. You won’t be too tired that way.”
Dou Xiangling did not reject her goodwill and said, “Alright.”
The both of them chatted for some time before Zi Yi went back and continued taking her exams. She was planning to move forward the exams arranged for tomorrow to the afternoon and finish them by today.
On the other side.
Because a member of the He Family had pa.s.sed away, the whole house was engulfed in a melancholic atmosphere.
The results of the investigation were that it was foreigners who had killed He Chao. The person who killed He Chao was still being interrogated in the station, but the higher-ups did not reveal the results of the interrogation. It was as if they were deliberately trying to hide something.
However, Eldest Master He had insisted that Lu Jingye was the culprit.
“I was the one who sent Little Chao to look for Zi Yi. If Lu Jingye was not the culprit, then who could it be?”
When Eldest Master He mentioned Lu Jingye, his eyes turned red while his expression looked fierce. It was as if he wished to skin him alive.
Second Master He looked at Eldest Master He who clearly stated how he wanted to take revenge against Lu Jingye. Even though he felt somewhat strange deep down, he had also started to hate Lu Jingye.
However, something unexpected happened. Lu Jingye called him out to have tea.
Lu Jingye arranged to meet Second Master He at a very serene teahouse.
Many middle-aged and elderly people would visit the teahouse and they would usually come to have tea, play chess and listen to music, which made the place especially quiet and comfortable.
The two of them took a seat in a corner and the tea was soon served. Second Master He saw how Lu Jingye had no intentions of speaking up first and he thought of the losses that the He Family had suffered from in the past few days. This led him to speak in an unkind tone.
“Little Lu is indeed a fierce character. You must have partic.i.p.ated in that economic war that night, right?”
Lu Jingye had a gentle expression on his face, similar to that of what Second Master He always saw. Lu Jingye then said in a calm voice, “Second Master He managed to guess that I was present that night, then can you guess who wanted the Lu Family to fall?”
Second Master He furrowed his eyebrows. “Wasn’t that a self-directed play of yours? Who doesn’t know that your skills in the business department are unmatched?!”
