Xu Mingzhen was fairly sure that this was a possibility.

Old Madame Xu rarely called her other than for matters regarding Xu Mingjing or herself.

Thus, Xu Mingzhen had a sullen expression on her face as she answered the phone, “Mom...”

“Do you know that Keqing’s examination results are out?” Old Madame Xu asked.

“Is that so?” Xu Mingzhen replied, thinking that this call was indeed about Yuan Keqing. “Then you must know her grades. How did she score?”

She wanted to hear the answer as she knew it would make her happy.

“She missed the examination for her first subject. How much do you think she would score?” Old Madame Xu felt that Xu Mingzhen had asked that on purpose. “She is your niece! How can you stand on the sidelines and laugh and not help her at all?”

“What can I do to help?” Xu Mingzhen asked. “I don’t have any way to help her.”

“How could you not have some way? Tan Mo and President Mu have such a great relationship. Through that, she found such good teachers for Tan Jinqi and the rest of the boys.” Old Madame Xu warned her gravely, “Don’t you dare push this matter away!”

Xu Mingzhen thought to herself that Tan Jinqi’s teacher had been found by Professor Zhao, not by President Mu.

But she didn’t say that.

Old Madame Xu was not concerned with Tan Mo, and she wasn’t interested in any details regarding Tan Mo.

Moreover, if Old Madame Xu got to know about Professor Zhao, she and the Yuan family would only ask for more favors.

“I understand, you are calling asking for my Mo Mo to go to President Mu and ask him to let Yuan Keqing enter Beijing University in an improper way.”

On the other end of the phone, Old Madame Xu was unable to see how Xu Mingzhen’s expression had turned colder.

“What improper way? It is called making an exception.” Old Madame Xu felt that Xu Mingzhen’s choice of words was too direct and jarring to her ears.

“As an arts student, Keqing’s academic results are already not bad. If she had the score from the subject she missed, she would have had the possibility of entering Beijing University. Moreover, with Keqing’s piano skills, she could be a talent at Beijing University. You asking President Mu to make an exception is not improper. Rather, you are helping him find a new talent,” Old Madam Xu said unashamedly.

Xu Mingzhen was flabbergasted.

Did Old Madame Xu really not feel guilty when those words left her mouth?

“If you feel this way, then you can approach him yourself,” Xu Mingzhen laughed as she answered.

Old Madame Xu’s words had been truly hilarious.

“The official website of Beijing University lists the public contact number of the president’s office. There is no need to rely on Mo Mo. The Yuan family can contact him themselves. Have them repeat what you just said to President Mu and see if they want the talented Yuan Keqing, and then this matter could be resolved,” Xu Mingzhen said. She wanted to laugh out loud.

To call her a talent...

Did she really think Beijing University was lacking in a measly grade eight piano talent?

“If she truly is a talent, is there even a need for Mo Mo to say anything? President Mu can personally extend the invitation.” There had been such cases after all.

The real-life example was Mo Mo.

Old Madame Xu got really angry and shouted loudly, “Who was it who caused Keqing to miss the examination? It was all because of Tan Mo. This was originally Tan Mo’s responsibility, and your family has the responsibility to make compensation.”

Xu Mingzhen could not be bothered to explain all the circumstances to Old Madame Xu. “You are purposefully pretending to not know the truth, and I have nothing more to say to you. You and the Yuan family know very well why Yuan Keqing was forced to miss the examination. Mo Mo was bullied and wronged by her, and you don’t care. On the contrary, you’re taking the bully’s side. All right.

“We don’t care whether or not she enters Beijing University. If she has the ability, she can rely on herself and enter the university. Our Mo Mo has always relied on herself and didn’t make use of family at all. Why should our family let our own child make it on her own and care about another family’s child instead?”

“But Keqing is not another family’s child, she is your niece.” Old Madame Xu said angrily. “You have no conscience at all and do not even want to acknowledge your own niece.”

“All right, whatever you say.” She would carry the label of having no conscience. She just didn’t care.

Old Madame Xu paused. She hadn’t expected that Xu Mingzhen would be so impervious to her pleas.

So she changed her strategy. “Mo Mo is the only one from our family attending Beijing University. Isn’t that a bit embarrassing to admit to others? Is that something to be proud of?”

“That’s an embarrassment for Yuan Keqing, but has nothing to do with us. My Mo Mo has always had good grades and is especially famous now, bringing pride to our family,” Xu Mingzhen said proudly.

Old Madame Xu was stumped and was unable to speak for a moment.

“However, wouldn’t it be better if both children were attending Beijing University? When others hear about it, it would be a good story. Both girls from the Xu family attending Beijing University...” Old Madame Xu continued to try to change Xu Mingzhen’s mind.

“Mo Mo’s surname is Tan,” Xu Mingzhen said coldly, unwilling to give any credit to Old Madame Xu. “Usually you say that Mo Mo is a niece, and is separated by a layer, and not part of the Xu family. How is it that now, she is a part of the Xu family’s good story? When there are benefits, then you recall that she has blood from the Xu family, is that it?

“Yuan Keqing is unable to enter Beijing University because she is not good at studying. If people want to laugh, they will be laughing at her. Moreover, her surname is Yuan, and she is not from my family.” When Xu Mingzhen was not held back by her previous family considerations, her combat powers were extremely strong.

“You! What are you saying?” Old Madame Xu was completely exasperated.

“Moreover, no one decreed that in a family, if there is one child in Beijing University, then the other children must also attend. If you truly fear societal embarrassment, then have Yuan Keqing study well, repeat a year, and try her chances again next year,” Xu Mingzhen said. However, to herself she spat out a phrase, there won’t be a chance in this lifetime!

HMPH!

“Anyway, don’t expect our family to help her with this,” Xu Mingzhen said without a care. “Let me phrase it this way. With Yuan Keqing’s grades, she definitely will not be able to enter Beijing University.”

Xu Mingzhen had already made up her mind. She definitely was not going to let Yuan Keqing enter Beijing University to disgust Tan Mo.

“The Yuan family wants to rely on relationships to get her to enter the school. No matter who they find, as soon as Yuan Keqing enrolls successfully, I will report Yuan Keqing,” Xu Mingzhen promised.

Anyway, whatever people would help Yuan Keqing with such matters are definitely not righteous people.

If they really were implicated in some kind of cheating by helping Yuan Keqing, then it would be what they deserved.

While President Mu and the professors who were close with Tan Mo would never do it.

Their hearts lay with Beijing University and its rightful students, and they would never break the rules.

“What did you say?” Old Madame Xu was so shocked by her attitude that her voice broke, and she was even breathless when she spoke, “Keqing is your niece. If you do not want to help, fine, stay on the sidelines. But to think that you would go as far as to report her also.”

“She isn’t eligible to enter Beijing University with her grades. If she enters, it would be because of one possibility: she relied on some kind of relationship,” Xu Mingzhen not only would not be threatened now, but she had also turned around to threaten Old Madame Xu and the Yuan family.. She was in an extremely good mood, and her tone had turned ice-cold.
