"Reporting results, I'm here to check in~"
With school about to start, the June CAtti results also came out, just in time for August.
"Dai Yao is as punctual as ever~"
"Naturally!"
"Hurry up, you guys, take a look~" Although she had a general idea of her close friends' results, Song Daiyao still enjoyed the joy of seeing the results at that moment.
"Coming~"
Qiu Xi and the others were happy to play along.
Checking results, they had experienced it so many times, what was there to be afraid of!
It only took a minute or two, and three result reports appeared in the group chat.
"......"
"It seems I'm not worthy..."
Looking at the three result reports in the group, Song Daiyao felt dejected!
This familiar scene, why did she have to rush out so eagerly...
To find abuse!
"......"
"You say this every time, Dai Yao, you're still so spirited."
The three of them had already figured out Song Daiyao's personality, and she perked up again in a moment.
"Mm! I think it's pretty good too, at least mine passed!"
"Don't you guys think so?" She couldn't help but seek confirmation as if to comfort herself.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes......"
Indeed, it was only within their group that, if placed outside, Dai Yao's results would still be considered good, not bad!
"Mm!"
"I think you're right! I'm happy now~"
"......" The three were silently speechless.
As long as you're happy...
"...... No more talking, I'll see you at school in a few days."
It was time to prepare for school again, and she had been working frantically during this period.
"Go ahead, see you at school then."
"Mm......"
...
"Beep!"
"Reward of 10,000 cash and 500 points has been issued."
"Beep!"
"Double reward has been issued."
Just as Qiu Xi finished chatting with the three, the stage rewards for her certification exams had already arrived.
Qiu Xi, who was already considered comfortably wealthy, stated that she didn't mind this little bit more and accepted it.
"Xiao Hua, am I considered a wealthy family now? Is our usual studying enough for you to retire?"
"Xiao Xi, what are you thinking about?"
"The more the merrier, you know!"
Xiao Hua was currently enjoying Qiu Xi's proactive approach to learning, finding it very comfortable.
"......"
"Cough cough... I was just asking."
To prevent Xiao Hua from "rusting," Qiu Xi had always been diligently enriching herself. Besides acquiring skills, she hadn't neglected her studies at all.
Take her major for example, in English, she could now be considered professionally proficient to a certain extent.
She also practiced Japanese and French, and her current level was already sufficient to graduate academically; she just lacked practical experience.
French was fine; Qiu Xi often practiced with Teacher Xue at 'Yi Jia'.
Now that Qiu Xi's major studies were more relaxed and no longer as difficult, she was preparing to start learning new languages with her mentor in a while.
Previously, Qiu Xi had many learning tasks, so Du Bin didn't have many requirements. The path had to be taken step by step, and food had to be eaten bite by bite.
But now that the child had laid a solid foundation and mastered other things quite well, she could prepare to continue learning.
Coupled with her impending undergraduate graduation, starting now was just right, not too early or too late.
"Mm~ Keep up the good work, I'm going for further studies!"
That's right, to better operate and assist Qiu Xi, Xiao Hua also needed to pursue further studies!
"...... Go ahead."
This was the source of pressure. If even Xiao Hua, a data system, was this diligent, wouldn't it be terrible if she slacked off?
Hmm... life in high-quality circles wasn't that easy to navigate!
...
Time flew by, and another weekend passed.
Today was the day Qiu Xi, her mentor, and Teacher Ding had agreed upon.
"Mentor, Teacher Ding, here."
Qiu Xi brought a plate of pastries and tea.
"Let's chat while we eat."
It wasn't a very formal or serious occasion; being relaxed was enough.
"Alright, come sit down."
Seeing that the child had already made two trips back and forth, Ding Yujing felt tired.
"Hehe~ Okay." Qiu Xi arranged the food on the table and moved a seat to sit down.
"Xiao Xi, the school's public announcement is out, and I saw it. You're far ahead."
Ding Yujing's opening words were full of praise.
Qiu Xi's face curved into a smile, and she didn't hide her slight embarrassment, "Teacher Ding, isn't this what's expected~"
"With mentor and you, Teacher, teaching me a lot~"
Despite her shyness, it didn't stop her from being happy~
And it was a good opportunity to praise her teachers~
"Hahaha~"
Ding Yujing laughed heartily and turned to look at Du Bin, "Old Du, this girl does have a bit of narcissism in her~"
Du Bin even glanced and said, "You're just realizing that~"
"She's just good-looking, has a bit of talent, and is a bit diligent in her studies. Other than that... I haven't seen much else~"
"......" Ding Yujing was utterly speechless.
Was that not enough?
Old Du really... had a bit of a tendency to say the opposite of what he meant.
"Alright, stop your boasting. Let's talk business, serious business!" Angrily, Ding Yujing picked up the tea on the table and took a big gulp, then grabbed a pastry...
Hmm~
The craftsmanship was good, the pastries were delicious, and the tea was excellent!
But this couldn't compensate for his slightly wounded feelings from the "joint attack" by this mentor and disciple.
"Business, business!"
"Although the school's public announcement regarding recommended quota hasn't come out yet, we know you, Xiao Xi. There are no issues."
"So, let's first discuss the interview, and while we're at it, we can also chat about the teachers in the department."
Qiu Xi nodded, all she could do was nod.
"Okay~ I'll listen to Mentor and Teacher Ding."
Ding Yujing nodded, "Alright."
He turned and mumbled a few more words to Du Bin, then turned back to look at Qiu Xi.
Qiu Xi looked curious.
"Well, before we begin, Old Du and I will conduct a spontaneous mock interview with you. After that, we'll discuss the interview matters."
Before starting, they wanted to see if the child truly grasped the knowledge. If there were no issues, they would proceed to the next step.
"Certainly." Qiu Xi nodded.
With that, Ding Yujing pulled Du Bin to sit together and struck a pose.
"Ahem... then we'll start like this."
"Mm, let's begin."
Since they were people she was very familiar with, Qiu Xi didn't feel any nervousness. She sat obediently and waited for them to start asking questions.
