Chapter 458 - 392 This Girl is Quite Impressive
"Or, just drop us off at that turn up ahead!" Rong Yan didn’t want to attract too much attention, she still preferred to keep a low profile.
"We’re almost there, why get off here? You don’t think it’s too ostentatious, do you? Anyway, someone like you, wanting to keep a low profile, that’s just not possible. So, there’s no need to make an unnecessary fuss," Qin Zhen said with a smile.
Rong Yan: ...
Am I being ostentatious—whose fault is that?
Is it my fault?
If she had come alone today, who would recognize her?
While she was lost in thought, the car had already passed the turn and she could now see the nearby school.
Rong Yan: ...
Forget it, I’ll just go with the flow!
With that thought, she stopped fretting over these things.
"We’re here." Qin Zhen’s car stopped at the school gate.
Looking out the car window, Rong Yan saw... both new and returning students; there were quite a few people registering, as people were coming and going at the school gate.
She could feel how much attention she was attracting just by being here.
Look, already many people were staring at the car.
After all, coming to college in a car these days... though not unique, it was definitely a rare sight.
Qin Ye opened the car door and got out.
"Dad, Mom, Yanyan, time to get out."
Rong Wenming also got out of the front passenger seat.
Madam Rong followed, looking at Jing City University, her eyes lit up, "This university looks really big."
It’s no wonder it’s one of the top universities in the country.
Being able to study here... their future must be promising.
It’s just too bad she never had such an opportunity in her life.
But it didn’t matter, her daughter could study at such a prestigious university... she felt immense pride as a mother.
After taking a few steps, she felt something was amiss... why did it feel like someone was missing?
Turning her head, she saw her daughter still sitting inside the car.
So she promptly urged, "Why are you still sitting in the car? Come on out!"
Rong Yan: ...
If possible, she’d rather come by herself tomorrow.
She would never reveal that she came to register this afternoon.
With a sigh, she finally got out of the car.
Seeing her like this, Qin Ye said, "...Should I go back?"
Rather than upsetting his wife, he could bear not going to the university.
Actually, his motive was simple, to accompany his wife around the campus so that everyone knew his wife was already spoken for.
This could ward off some unwanted attention.
After all, his wife truly was outstanding.
He admitted he was a bit jealous.
Hearing his words, Rong Yan couldn’t help but roll her eyes.
"We’re already here, why go back now? Let’s go!"
She took the lead in walking forward.
And she walked alongside her parents.
Qin Ye watched her back, his lips curling upward slightly, then quickly caught up.
Still in the car, Qin Zhen: ...?
Did they just leave like that? Did they forget about him?
At least say goodbye, right?
Forget it.
Qin Zhen stepped on the pedal and drove the car away... after all, this trip was specifically to drop off his sister-in-law.
This really wasn’t his idea; he had no choice, his family insisted.
Not to mention his grandfather, even his wife urged him to come.
His wife was pregnant and counting on Rong Yan to keep an eye on her, so he had to send her.
Rong Yan quickly found the seniors of the medical department.
They were somewhat surprised when they saw her.
"You’re the top new student? Rong Yan?" The speaker was a senior with a good appearance and an air of confidence.
Rong Yan had a good first impression of her, "Hello, I don’t know about being the top one, but my name is Rong Yan indeed."
"Finally, I get to meet you in person. We’ve heard so much about you lately! By the way, junior, my name is Shi Ke, where Shi means ’to be a mentor,’ and Ke is the one beside the character for king."
Rong Yan: "Hello, Senior Shi Ke, can you tell me which way to go now?"
"Come, I’ll take you there." Shi Ke was very enthusiastic, being a medical student herself, and particularly excited to meet the top new freshman, who was also very pretty.
She was quite excited.
Rong Yan: "Thanks! Actually, if you just tell me, I can find it myself and not take up your time."
"I’m here today specifically to welcome you, junior, don’t worry at all! It’s no bother."
This was the first time she had seen someone so good-looking.
Staying even a second longer, she felt, was a win.
Rong Yan: ...
Alright! If you’re happy, that’s enough.
This Shi Ke’s typical enthusiasm gushed, "Hello uncle and aunt, you must be Rong Yan’s parents!"
Rong Wenming and his wife, seeing that the girl was speaking with them, quickly nodded.
Madam Rong hastily replied: "Yes, we are Yanyan’s parents."
"Wow, uncle, aunt, you’re incredible for raising such an outstanding daughter..."
Madam Rong: ...felt strangely flattered.
The daughter was outstanding, but it wasn’t really due to their parenting.
They couldn’t really take credit; their daughter had found a mentor after moving to the countryside... If anyone was impressive, it was her mentor.
After praising Rong Wenming and his wife, Shi Ke then turned to Qin Ye, "And this must be your sister’s brother! He looks just as outstanding as your sister..."
Seems like the parents were a bit biased!
One was born fair-skinned, shining bright like a lightbulb attracting attention.
And the other was... a bit darker!
In the crowd, it might be a normal color for a man, but standing next to his sister, the contrast was quite stark.
And their faces didn’t look much alike either.
All in all, his sister was a bit prettier.
Her words seemed to freeze the air.
Qin Ye’s face visibly darkened.
Why was he suddenly her brother-in-law? Was this person’s eyesight a bit off?
Could someone with bad eyesight be a doctor?
Just two words... in anger.
Realizing the mistake, Madam Rong quickly explained, "Junior Sister Shi Ke, this is my son-in-law; he’s Yanyan’s husband, and they’ve been married for almost a year."
Shi Ke’s eyes widened in surprise at the aunt’s explanation.
Oh my... how awkward!
She instinctively turned to look at Rong Yan.
"My husband’s surname is Qin, and he specially came today to take me to school for registration."
Shi Ke: ...
Indeed, all the good-looking ones are taken.
"I was just thinking how perfectly matched you two were, really like a married couple, but I was hesitant to say it—I guess you really are husband and wife."
Rong Yan: ...
Your expression just now certainly didn’t seem to think so.
However, she felt Shi Ke’s reaction was quite impressive; her mind worked quickly—studying medicine... might be a waste of talent? Such a person should probably go into linguistics.
