“Heaven knows what the girl’s origin is!” The logistics director Jiang Qin was still extremely angry. “There’s no bed left in the Training Camp? How could there be no bed in the Training Camp, there are more than ten beds available! Isn’t this just spoiling the logistics department’s reputation? When it’s the year-end evaluation, I’ll still have to have points deducted for ‘having no beds’!”
“An La, since it was Principal Sha who instructed you, he must be making up for some of your other deducted points with this. However, you really don’t know that girl’s origin?” Bao Xiuli was extremely curious.
Jiang Qin rolled her eyes. “I don’t know her origins! Principle Sha has never mentioned it.” She had been going through arduous training in the workplace for so many years and was definitely not stupid. She knew that she should not ask about some things. However, she did have a guess in her heart. “You know this year’s chief isn’t Li Bingman, it’s a little girl called Xia Ling.”
“I’ve heard that. It made a lot of noise. Many people secretly laughed at Li Bingman for losing to a little girl who isn’t even known. Furthermore, isn’t that girl from Shabei?” Bao Xiuli was full of enthusiasm. Women were always keen in the face of gossip. “But she’ll probably be very miserable in the future. She offended Li Bingman so badly the moment she entered school.”
“She’s the one who wants to attend day school,” Jiang Qin said. “She’s this year’s chief, so she can enjoy the chief privileges and stay in a single dormitory and need not crowd with other students. However, this also means that Li Bingman has to crowd with all the others. I’ve heard that Li Bingman and her sister’s temper are quite similar and they are both arrogant. I think she won’t be able to hold it in and will think of ways to chase Xia Ling away.”
“That makes sense…” Bao Xiuli was thoughtful. “But even if Li Bingman uses her relationship with her sister, can she really make the Training Camp get rid of the precedence of attending day school? I still think it’s quite far-fetched.”
“Who knows, there’s no other reasonable explanation,” Jiang Qin said. “That little girl certainly doesn’t know that she’s being made to attend day school. I just bumped into her in the hallway and she was dragging her luggage excitedly. It can’t be her family mediating it. Otherwise, she’d know. Principal Sha wouldn’t want me to lie to her too.”
“I never thought that Li Bingman was this vicious? She’s really pulling the carpet from under her, tsk.”
“It’s better to have more considerations in the future when mixing in the entertainment industry.” Jiang Qin could get over it, but her next sentence was unhappy. “It’s so annoying that the logistics department has to take the blame.”
The two were heated in discussion when the door to the logistics office was suddenly pushed open. Another female teacher came in and smiled at them. “Hey, we’re already very busy outside, what are you two hiding here and whispering to each other about? Come, eat some grapes.” The woman was Ouyang Xue, the assistant in the principal’s office. Her relationship with Jiang Qin and them was good.
Jiang Qin and Bao Xiuli laughed too. “You’re slacking off to eat grapes?” Today was the day the new students reported and everyone was very busy. They were slacking off amidst the bustle.
Ouyang Xue distributed the grapes and said, “Sister Qin, I heard you say something about taking the blame. Who bullied you?”
“It’s your principal!” Jiang Qin complained to her again.
Unexpectedly, Ouyang Xue’s expression was a little weird. “You mean… Xia Ling?”
“Yes, who else but her? She’s offended Li Bingman and is dragging our feet down too.”
Ouyang Xue’s face became even more eccentric. “Sister Qin… I’m only telling you this because we’re close, you two just listen to it now and make sure you don’t spread it around. I’m advising you, don’t provoke Xia Ling.”
“Why?” The two women exchanged glances, smelling something fishy.
Ouyang Xue went back to the door and made sure it was closed tightly before saying mysteriously, “I saw Xia Ling just now when I was entering through the school gates. You guys guess, what car did she get off from?”
“Ferrari? Lamborghini? Maybach?” Jiang Qin guessed with a lack of interest. The family backgrounds of the candidates were all not bad and, although these branded cars weren’t too common, it wasn’t unusual for the parents to drive them to pick up the candidates.
“Isn’t it just a BMW,” Bao Xiuli said. “Xue, what happened to you today, a BMW that costs less than a million yuan surprised you so much. And haven’t you heard the rumors all the students have been spreading? Xia Ling’s family simply can’t afford such a car, that car is borrowed!”
“Sure enough it was borrowed…” Ouyang Xue’s expression was even more imposing.
“What’s wrong?” Bao Xiuli and Jiang Qin were puzzled. “We can’t possibly have to be careful not to offend such a poor student, right?”
“Whose car do you think she borrowed?”
“Whose?”
Ouyang Xue said, “I recognized the license plate, S00086. It’s especially easy to remember. It’s the license plate of Pei Ziheng’s Secretary Zhou!” The last time she’d accompanied Principal Sha to Imperial Entertainment’s headquarters, she had seen Secretary Zhou wearing a black elegant dress and sitting inside that car. She had looked so picturesque and her manner had been so impressive that it left an impression on her.
Jiang Qin and Bao Xiuli both took a breath—
God, Secretary Zhou’s car!
That was a person who could see the Chairman every day! She was the Chairman’s confidant!
Even though she was just a secretary, but where was she not respected and flattered by people? It was no exaggeration to say that she was the core figure of Imperial Entertainment! That little girl from Shabei unexpectedly had Secretary Zhou supporting her!
“She, she, she,” Bao Xiuli stuttered. “She’s Secretary Zhou’s relative?”
“I’ve never heard that Secretary Zhou had a relative in Shabei. Isn’t she a returning student from abroad?”
Ouyang Xue was very satisfied with the bomb effect brought by her news. She took a deep breath and blasted more information. “I was so shocked after seeing the license plate that I specially checked on Xia Ling’s information. Her candidate number is indeed from Shabei, but no one in Shabei has passed the test! The person-in-charge of Shabei has also said he’d never seen Xia Ling!”
“You’re saying, her, her admission number… was forged?”
Ouyang Xue nodded. “I turned over all the information from all the examination areas. I can confirm this—this Xia Ling is the same as Li Bingman, they were both exempted from the first retest! Somebody deliberately forged her number!”
This was too horrifying. There was only one student exempted from the retest every few years, but this batch actually had two?
Jiang Qin and Bao Xiuli were shocked by the news and could not return to their senses after a long time. Finally, Bao Xiuli swallowed her saliva. “You’re saying that this Xia Ling is no less than Li Bingman?”
“I’m afraid so,” Ouyang Xue said. “However, since she forged her number, she probably doesn’t want to be as high-profile as Li Bingman. It’s enough that you guys know it, don’t spread it around or you’ll die.” What a joke, they simply couldn’t afford to offend such a big figure like Secretary Zhou!
Jiang Qin and Bao Xueli nodded. They knew the importance of the matter.
“It’s too incredible… it’s like I’m dreaming…” Jiang Qin muttered. “Then, then the Principal knows it too? Isn’t he offending Secretary Zhou by ordering her to attend day school?”
