Chapter 642: Invitation
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“What do you mean?” Someone immediately frowned and whispered, “With our results, if we want to go to their school for postgraduate studies, we still have to apply and wait for their approval?”
The other three representatives also had the same idea.
In other words, the only students that the schools wanted to invite today were Tan Mo, Wu Yuanbo, and Liu Yidi.
Some people laughed in anger. “Hur! Don’t they see how difficult this competition is? Only a few of us won the prizes. Are there any students from their schools? Not a single one! Yet they even put on such a high and mighty attitude towards us.”
The students were not blind.
Although the words used by these four representatives sounded very polite.
However, their words could not hide the arrogance on their faces.
Many students showed an unconvinced look.
No one knew whether they were unconvinced that only Tan Mo and the other two could get examination exemption invitation, or they were really unconvinced of the arrogance of the four representatives.
As for whether they would still secretly apply in private, it was even more unknown.
“Liu Yidi.” The representative from Foggy University of Technology, Melissa, walked up to Liu Yidi, “On behalf of our school, I’m sending you an invitation. I hope that you can continue your postgraduate studies at our school. You…”
Without waiting for Melissa to finish, Liu Yidi hurriedly nodded in agreement, “I’m willing!”
After saying that, Liu Yidi did not know what she was thinking. She actually looked at Tan Mo.
However, Tan Mo did not even look at her. It was as if she did not exist in her eyes at all.
Meanwhile, Liu Yidi only focused on looking at Tan Mo. She did not see President Shi’s slightly sullen face.
He had originally wanted to wait until today to tell Liu Yidi about his postgraduate studies and give her a guaranteed spot.
The reason why he did not mention it before was that President Shi had the heart of a gentleman. He guessed that there would definitely be a school that would send an invitation to Liu Yidi this time.
If he mentioned it after the school sent out the invitation, it would give Liu Yidi a choice. It could also let the other school know that Liu Yidi had a choice. She did not have to go to their school.
It would make Liu Yidi even more important to the other school.
Even if Liu Yidi chose the other school, in the end, she would still hold certain importance to the school once she went over.
If Liu Yidi were to go to another school, especially if it was overseas, President Shi would not be able to help her or take care of her anymore even if he wanted to.
He could only do his best to help her while she was still in the country. Even if he could only help Liu Yidi a little, he would be able to pave the way for the outstanding talents of Hua University.
President Shi did this in case the other schools did not invite Liu Yidi because Tan Mo was too eye-catching in this competition.
He was afraid that the schools would fight over Tan Mo.
President Shi leaving the news about Liu Yidi’s direct admission to the postgraduate studies could also save some face for her.
Who would expect that Liu Yidi did not even wait for the school representative to finish speaking before she hurriedly agreed. She already looked like she could not wait to go over.
He did not even mention the option of direct admission to postgraduate studies to Liu Yidi.
Even if he mentioned it, Liu Yidi would not choose it.
Why did he have to humiliate himself and Hua University?
It was just that President was extremely disappointed that the student he thought highly of was so unwilling to stay.
Even if Liu Yidi hesitated a little.
Even if she ultimately chose Foggy University of Technology, he would not feel so bad.
No one had the time to pay attention to President Shi’s thoughts.
“Wu Yuanbo.” Chris, the representative of West Ocean University of Technology, walked up to Wu Yuanbo, “On behalf of our school, I invite you to study at our school for postgraduate studies. The school will send you an invitation. With the school’s invitation, our country’s visa will be easily approved.”
It seemed that he had never thought about rejection so before Wu Yuanbo could reply, the representative directly handed Wu Yuanbo a business card, “This is my contact information. Give me your contact information.”
Wu Yuanbo opened his mouth several times, wanting to speak, but he could not find the opportunity.
He silently cursed in his heart that the English sentence was too complicated, unlike their Chinese, which was concise and comprehensive.
It was such a simple sentence, yet he had to listen to the other party speak for such a long time.
Originally, Wu Yuanbo was also looking forward to going to a famous university to study abroad.
However, after listening to Tan Mo’s words, he was a little hesitant.
His heart, which was filled with joy for the future when he found out about his results in the competition, had turned cold at this moment. He was actually not looking forward to it as much as before.
After waiting for the other party to finish, Wu Yuanbo finally said: “I want to think about it.”
“Think about it?” Chris raised his eyebrows high and suddenly smiled, “Sure, then you can think about it. It doesn’t have to be you our school selects. We won’t look up to you or think you are very hard to come across just because you’re playing hard to get.”
“Before this meeting ends, give me an answer,” Chris said. “After that, the school won’t be able to issue an invitation to you. It’ll be much more troublesome if you want to get your visa approved on your own.”
Tan Mo raised her eyebrows and sneered in her heart.
He was just a person who was showing off his authority here.
It was just an invitation, yet there was such an urgent time limit.
If the reply was a few days late, he would not send it?
He was just used to being high and mighty and looked down on people from the bottom of his heart.
When he suddenly heard that someone did not accept the invitation immediately, he deliberately made things difficult for them.
It was also because he was so used to the behavior of those students who spent a lot of effort to go abroad to study.
It allowed them to look down on people.
Wu Yuanbo’s face also darkened.
He knew that Chris’ attitude was not necessarily the same as the attitude of Foggy University of Technology.
Perhaps Foggy University of Technology did not know that Chris had such an attitude outside.
However, Chris was probably not the only person with this attitude.
Did he not see that the other three representatives, although they came from different schools, were more or less as arrogant?
There were quite a few people with such an attitude.
If he went over like this, it was not necessarily better than staying at Beijing University.
Chris no longer cared about Wu Yuanbo.
After all, Wu Yuanbo was not his main target this time.
He looked at Tan Mo, “You’re the first place in this competition. You got full marks in all five events. You’re the first person in history to win five gold medals.”
It was hard to say if anyone would get more in the future.
But he was sure that there would not be anyone in the near future.
Tan Mo’s record could be maintained for a long time.
“On behalf of the school, I invite you to study at Foggy University of Technology.” Chris’ attitude towards Tan Mo was just a little more formal than Wu Yuanbo.
“It’s different from what I told Wu Yuanbo just now. The school will issue an invitation letter to you. I will handle your visa for you.” Chris said, “At the same time, we will waive your tuition fees for one year. If you perform well in this year, we will decide whether to continue waiving your tuition fees for the second year.”
“As for the scholarship, you have the same prerequisites as our local students,” Chris said..
