Chapter 541: Ji Mulan received a phone call as 218 arrives in Jiangjing (Second Update)_1
The national top scorer emerged from a small outlying city in Beicheng, and the Beicheng Education Bureau received the news immediately.
While the media dared not overhype the story, the news spread quickly among educational professionals, and congratulatory calls came one after another.
Not to mention Xiangcheng, even Beicheng had never experienced such a shining moment. In terms of education, Xicheng was considerably better than Beicheng. This time, Beicheng had surpassed Jiangjing.
Director Li had received notice from the Jiangjing Education Bureau first thing in the morning that educational funding would be increased.
Not only the Beicheng Education Bureau but also the Xiangcheng Education Bureau were up for promotions, and Director Li would soon be reassigned to Jiangjing.
This was the performance brought by the national top scorer.
Director Li immediately tried to access the information about the top scorer, but even as the head of the Education Bureau, he found nothing on this student named Bai Lian.
Her records were completely blank no matter how he searched. He only knew she was from Xiangcheng No.1 High School and her information was sealed. This was not surprising, as the authorities always closely protected special talents, making Director Li feel even more that she was no ordinary person.
It was only when Director Li was preparing to go to Xiangcheng No.1 High School to discuss this dark horse with the principal of Beicheng that he found out she was originally from Beicheng City.
Her father was in Beicheng.
That’s why he hurried over with the principal.
Director Li was polite, but Bai Qiming listened in utter confusion, “…Bai Lian?”
The Bai Family leader was also surprised; he knew that Bai Lian was Bai Qiming’s daughter who had been removed from the family register.
The Bai Family butler had already prepared tea for Director Li and the principal.
“Yes, Bai Lian scored top in the nation this time, and Jiangjing University takes this very seriously,” said Director Li as he sat down on the sofa, still with his coat draped over his arm, and smiled at Bai Qiming, “I guess the admissions office from Jiangjing University will arrive soon. Isn’t Bai Lian coming back to Beicheng?”
The high school exam results had only come out two days ago, and news was buzzing between Xiangcheng and the various top universities. Director Li thought the admissions office from Jiangjing University would go there, not knowing that the principal had personally made the visit.
Bai Qiming had always been busy planning the multitude of details for Bai Shaoqi’s enrollment at Jiangjing University, without distraction.
He was invariably behind on such information and did not pay attention to others. As long as Bai Shaoqi scored well, that was enough; the Song Family hadn’t contacted him, and he had always assumed that Song Min was the top scorer, not paying much attention.
As for Bai Lian…
