Chapter 152: Powerful Cousin
During the summer vacation, Yang Ming was busy shuttling between Lan Ling and Chen Mengyan. Chen Mengyan couldn’t come out often, therefore, most of the time they only talked through the internet. As for Lan Ling, he could see her every day. Although they met quite often, Lan Ling still asked a lot of questions. After all, a woman was a very sensitive animal. She just didn’t spit it out. Since that was the case, Yang Ming enjoyed the peaceful moment and acted innocent.
Yang Ming always met Wild Female Teacher when he went online. They usually talked casually before they went to cheat in Landlord. Now, people in the Northeast Netcom server knew that Wild Female Teacher and There’s No True Love In This World were in cahoots. As soon as they appeared, the players immediately quit the room. Yang Ming couldn’t help but create another account to keep cheating with Wild Female Teacher.
Yang Ming kept advising “Wild Female Teacher” to find a boyfriend. She couldn’t keep clinging to him. But Wild Female Teacher didn’t like this, so she always diverted the topic.
Yang Ming sighed, It looks like she is falling too deep in our relations.h.i.+p. I shouldn’t convince her anymore. Sometimes Yang Ming even wanted to encourage her to find her true love. Yang Ming felt it was unbelievable. How could he be so generous as to push a girl away to others?
Was it because Yang Ming was too tired to juggle between two girls or that he didn’t know what she looked like? Yang Ming only considered her as an internet buddy who he got along with.
As for “I’m a Superstar,” she hadn’t bothered Yang Ming lately. It’s like she vanished into thin air. Yang Ming was worried that she turned crazy from being a superstar and joined a “Black Culture Corporation.” They said that those companies restricted the freedom of girls and forced them to do something bad.
Yang Ming left her a message, “Superstar, where did you go? Has something happened?”
I’m a Superstar replied to Yang Ming after three days, “True Love, are you cursing me? Didn’t I leave you a message a long time ago? I’m going to Korea to film an idol drama, so I don’t really have the time to come online! I’ll PM you when I’m back!”
Yang Ming gave a bitter smile. Went to Korea? Is that possible? Yang Ming wouldn’t take it seriously, because he didn’t believe that a real superstar would add him proactively. Interesting, she even used the internet lingo “PM.”
In mid-August, Yang Ming received an admission notice from Song Jiang City Industry University. According to his family tradition, Yang Dahai prepared a feast and invited his cousin, Yang Dashan. Last year, Yang Dashan’s daughter, Yang Li, who is Yang Ming’s cousin was admitted to the Beijing University of Aeronautics. There was a feast, and all the cousins were there. Yang Dahai even gave five hundred yuan as a gift.
This year was Yang Ming’s turn. If he wasn’t accepted, then there would be no feast. Since Yang Ming was admitted to a university, Yang Dahai prepared a feast. If not for anything else but to receive back those gifts that he had given away.
On the 19th of August, Yang Dahai booked five tables at a high-cla.s.s restaurant. He invited his relatives and his wife’s relatives.
Yang Ming’s cousin, Yang Li, was here too. She never expected Yang Ming to be admitted to a university. During her feast last year, she told Yang Ming sarcastically, “You should put in some effort. Maybe you could get into a college. Don’t give up!”
It turned out that Yang Ming was admitted to Song Jiang City Industry University. That is as good as Beijing University of Aeronautics! These universities were famous in the field of s.p.a.cecraft.
But Yang Li still spoke sourly, “Song Jiang City Industry University, is it? It’s still a university in the north. It’s still bad compared to Beijing University.”
Yang Ming’s face changed after he heard it. Song Jiang City Industry University is a leader in many specialties in the country. But Yang Ming didn’t argue with Yang Li. She could say whatever she wanted to. It had nothing to do with him.
Since Yang Ming didn’t argue, Yang Li said complacently, “If you have enough points, you still have to go for Beijing University. Beijing’s room for growth is much larger than Song Jiang. But you couldn’t help yourself either since your marks weren’t enough to get into Beijing University!”
“Hehe, you’re right.” Yang Dahai didn’t get the sarcastic meaning, instead, he agreed with her. “Your aunt and I had the same thoughts. We wanted him to study at Beijing University, but Big Ming wasn’t listening. He wanted to stay in Song Jiang.”
“Ha, he is making the right choice. Being the head of a dragon is better than the tail of a snake. The local university is more lenient in marking. The same marks could only get into an average university in Beijing.”
“He had enough points. He could possibly get into Tsinghua University. He just wasn’t willing to go.” Yang Dahai said with a laugh.
“He had enough points?” Yang Li certainly didn’t believe it. “How many points? Let me see which university could he attend in Beijing?”
Yang Dahai said, “697.5.”
“697.5?” Yang Li was stunned. This was much higher than what she got last year. She still refused to acknowledge that fact. “I heard that the exam for this year was easy, so the scores were generally higher. Maybe this score is nothing in Beijing!”
Even if Yang Dahai was generous, he could understand the ironic meaning from his niece. He sighed, “I don’t know about that. Your aunt and I are satisfied for Big Ming to attend Song Jiang City Industry University already.”
“Hehe, Yang Ming, come to visit Beijing when you have the time. I will give you a treat!” Yang Li laughed, but she felt unpleasant. 697.5? Did you copy from others? But she knew very well that it was impossible to cheat on the National Higher Education Entrance Examination.
Yang Ming’s other cousin, Yang Xiaobo, who had just gotten into Grade 10, greeted him sincerely. He just took the Senior High School Entrance Examination. He was just admitted to Song Jiang No. 4 High School which was Yang Ming’s alma mater. So he had to organize another feast as well.
Yang Ming was three years older than his younger cousin, but the relations.h.i.+p with him was better than the one with his elder female cousin. Yang Xiaobo always looked up to Yang Ming as a role model. Even when Yang Ming had lost his way, Yang Xiaobo still respected his older cousin. He registered for Song Jiang No. 4 High School because of Yang Ming.
“Brother, when will you show me sister-in-law?” Yang Xiaobo was kidding with Yang Ming.
“Hehe, it’s still early.” Yang Ming couldn’t say much during dinner. He had already found Yang Xiaobo two sisters-in-law!
But Yang Xiao Bo seemed to misunderstand him. He said in a lowered tone, “Elder brother, I know you can’t forget about sister Su Ya. But it has been many years already, shouldn’t you forget about her?”
Yang Xiaobo also knew what happened to Yang Ming. But he could only remember the name Su Ya. He didn’t remember what she looked like. He only remembered that she had big eyes and looked cute.
Forget? I have already forgotten about her! Yang Ming smiled bitterly. He couldn’t say anything else. Next time he will tell him when they were alone.
But Yang Li heard about it, “Big Ming, if you’re looking for a girlfriend, you must be careful. You must find a university student. Don’t find those flappers! Show me when you have one. Let me inspect carefully!”
Yang Ming wasn’t happy. What do you mean can only find a university student? If he didn’t have Lan Ling, Yang Ming wouldn’t be so angry. But now Yang Li’s words were directed at Lan Ling! Although she didn’t know about Lan Ling, Yang Ming would feel unhappy too.
It’s my business to look for my girlfriend, why would I need you to inspect? So if you find a boyfriend, you have to get my permission too? So Yang Ming said in a neutral tone, “I just got into university. I haven’t thought about this. If someone were to find one that would be you! How about this? If you bring me my future brother-in-law, I’ll inspect for you.”
Yang Ming’s uncle, Yang Dashan, was a powerful person. He owned a sand digging plant near the sea and earned quite a bit of money, so he despised his two poorer brothers.
After Yang Dashan heard Yang Ming, he said, “There is no need for inspection. I have inspected already. Her boyfriend isn’t bad. I’ll let her bring him to have a dinner!”
F*ck! If the person in front of Yang Ming wasn’t his elder, he would have already gone mad. She could inspect my girlfriend, but I couldn’t inspect hers? Are you making any sense?!
Yang Dahai also noticed the heated gunpowder atmosphere, he immediately smoothed the situation. “Yeah, Li Li is so beautiful, and she studies well also. Therefore, her boyfriend must be excellent. If my Big Ming can have a wife, I’m satisfied already. Why would I be so choosy for my daughter-in-law?”
Yang Ming was helpless. When even his own father said so, he didn’t dare to have an opinion on it. But why would you boost others’ morale and kill your own prestige? Your son is now a superhuman, so finding a pretty wife won’t be a problem at all!
