Chapter 343: The Glory

“Ahem.” Elder Mrs. Yan saw Hans’ expression and could not help but cough to remind him. She then asked, “Hans, you’re saying that this is Ella?”
How could Elder Mrs. Yan, who had been funding the University of Miliye for a long time, not know about Ella? Even she was curious about the true face of this rare prodigious student. Unfortunately, there was no news of her after she graduated.
In the past few years, because of the research project, Elder Mrs. Yan often heard from her subordinates that Hans was scolding “bad student Ella” and “If she’s here, we’ll definitely be able to figure it out faster” in the laboratory.
For this reason, Elder Mrs. Yan had sent people to search for Ella’s whereabouts, but there were no clues at all after a few attempts, so she gave up. She thought that Ella had really been recruited by some national organization.
Looking at Hans’ current state, Elder Mrs. Yan knew that she would be able to see Ella’s true appearance today.
It was just that she turned out to be Bai Lin, which surprised her.
Hans realized that he had been rude by running and shouting at the party, so he quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, Elder Mrs. Yan. I was just a little too excited to see a student I haven’t seen in years.”
“That’s right!” Although Hans tried his best to calm himself dovvn, he could not hide the pride and excitement in his voice. “This is the student I mentioned to you before, the student John and 1 love the most, Ella. She’s our pride and the glory of the whole of Miliye!’
As he spoke, he reached out his hand to pat Bai Lin on the shoulder. Bai Lin wanted to dodge, but she just stood there and let him pat her in the end.
Elder Mrs. Yan did not think much of his praise. She had always known that Hans loved to exaggerate, but Ella had indeed won the championship trophy for four international compet.i.tions for the University of Miliye and gain fame for it when she was still in school. Those trophies were still in the University of Miliye.
Yan Yue’s face was already ghastly pale.
This was even more shocking than seeing mushrooms growing all over the
Mariana Trench in ten minutes.
Bai Lin was Ella? Ella was Bai Lin?
The faces of the other rich family heiresses also changed, as if a color palette had been knocked over.
All the information said that Bai Lin had always been in the countryside and had never studied. She only went to elementary school for a few days when she was taken back by the Bai family when she was eight years old, but she was soon sent back to the countryside.
How could she have suddenly become the legendary Ella from University of Miliye?
She was such a vulgar, foul-mouthed, and ordinary woman. If it was Ella, she should at least be rich. A year’s tuition fee at the University of Miliye was not a small sum. Would she be unable to even afford a dress now?
“Professor Hans, she’s Ella? Did you see it wrong? She’s never been to school,” one of the young ladies asked the question in her heart.
“Never been to school? Then could the Ella who has been with me for so many cla.s.ses be fake?” Professor Hans looked at her like she was an idiot.
They had kept mocking Bai Lin for coming from the countryside and being uneducated, but her current status was obviously not what they thought.
The few of them were so angry that they wanted to bite their tongues. They did not know if Elder Mrs. Yan had heard their mocking about Bai Lin’s lack of education.
They had originally wanted to embarra.s.s Bai Lin and expose her true colors as a village woman, but their faces suddenly burned now that they had been slapped in the face.
Yan Yue had initially thought that Bai Lin would not be able to compete with her at all. After all, Elder Mrs. Yan was still a true top student even though she did not graduate from Miliye. When it came to choosing a granddaughter-in-law, she would definitely prefer girls with high academic qualifications.
Yan Yue had skipped a grade to get into University of Country Y, and her academic qualifications had already surpa.s.sed that of many rich heiresses who had bought an empty degree with money.
Despite that, she was the one who lost the compet.i.tive edge in terms of academic qualifications.
In the beginning, she had wanted Elder Mrs. Yan to treat Bai Lin coldly. It would be best if she directly asked Bai Lin to leave so that she would no longer have any contact with Yan Ruo.
Now, Elder Mrs. Yan’s gaze on Bai Lin was filled with admiration..
