Chapter 25

~7 min read 1,247 words

In front of the gate of Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University.

A sedan was slowly driving into the campus gate.

Two people were sitting in the back seat of the car.

The identities of these two people are not simple.

In a somewhat fantastical way of speaking: just a flick of their fingers would make Mo Du tremble three times.

Such a description sounds exaggerated, but… it really is quite imposing.

One of them is Chen Zhengmin, president of Fu Dan Da Xue in Mo Du; the other is Li Zheng, bureau chief of the Ministry of Education.

The purpose of their trip, if spoken aloud… Li Zheng would want to complain about Chen Zhengmin.

As the president of Fu Dan Da Xue, he actually set out personally for a child!

That's bad enough, but he even came to find me!

That too is tolerable.

This guy actually brought him to Mo Du Electronic Science and Technology University to steal students!

I heard that the student named Lu Yu has already been taken as a disciple by Old Li.

This… what on earth is going on!

A seven-year-old child becoming a university student is already absurd enough!

Li Zheng hasn't never seen geniuses; he's even seen those called monstrous talents.

But… he's already old, yet he truly has never heard of a seven-year-old being qualified to be a university student!

Now, Chen Zhengmin actually intends to argue with Old Li over this student!

This… sigh, does getting old make one as willful as a child?

Thinking this, Li Zheng unconsciously shook his head.

If Chen Zhengmin weren't his old friend and comrade-in-arms, Li Zheng really wouldn't want to accompany him on this trip.

It seems something has been exposed?

…

The car stopped in front of an office building.

Chen Zhengmin is unfamiliar with Mo Du Electronic University, but Li Zheng has been there a few times.

So Li Zheng led the way ahead.

The two arrived in front of the president's office and knocked on the door.

Soon the door was opened.

"Old Li? Why are you here? Came to inspect work?"

"Didn't even give a heads‑up call?"

"Come on, come in and sit down."

The one who opened the door was a vice‑president; upon seeing Li Zheng, his face immediately beamed with enthusiasm.

Li Zheng didn't smile, saying, "I didn't come today for official business, and… you might not be too pleased later."

As he spoke, Li Zheng stepped inside, making way for Chen Zhengmin behind him.

The vice‑president's brows furrowed at once, but quickly he broke into a smile and warmly greeted Chen Zhengmin.

"Face‑changing" is a must‑have for every old silver coin… mature and steady adult?

Regardless, Chen Zhengmin and Li Zheng entered the office.

"What brings the two of you here? Or… shall we go to the next office?" Old Li had already stood up; before these two, he had no place to act arrogantly.

"Oh? This isn't your office? Why go next door?" Li Zheng was purely curious.

"Um… there's a little kid doing a test paper, so we… won't disturb him." Old Li glanced at Lu Yu and said that.

"Old Li! It's rare for the bureau chief and Old Chen to come over; couldn't you be a bit more enthusiastic?"

"What's there to disturb? It's just a child's mischief."

"Let's just talk here; don't trouble the bureau chief and Old Chen."

The vice‑president quickly spoke up, his tone carrying a hint of dissatisfaction.

Old Li frowned, about to speak, but someone spoke before him.

"Grandpa Li, no need to go through all this trouble; I've already finished the test paper." Lu Yu said, having already jumped down from the stool.

Then…

The office fell silent for a moment.

The two vice‑presidents and the Ministry of Education officials they had invited all furrowed their brows tightly, their expressions not very friendly.

The test papers have been out for now, and even at most it hasn't been half an hour, right?

This is a math problem of National College Entrance Examination difficulty!

This little brat says he's finished it?

Maybe it's true.

But finishing doesn't mean it's correct!

Surely it's just random scribbling!

Not being able to do it isn't a problem; that's a matter of ability.

But… not being able to do it yet wanting to cause trouble is an attitude problem!

Who do you look down on! You think such tricks can fool them?

However, these three ultimately didn't lose their temper with Lu Yu; after all, at their age they still have some self‑cultivation.

The three of them simultaneously looked at Old Li, the questioning in their eyes could not be more obvious.

They aren't targeting that little kid, but they can target Lao Li!

"Oh? Little friend, you're doing the exercises? Let Grandpa have a look." But at that moment, Chen Zhengmin spoke, smiling as he looked toward Lu Yu.

"Okay, Grandpa." Lu Yu obediently handed the exercises to Chen Zhengmin.

Chen Zhengmin took the exercises with a chuckle, then…… he froze.

He had thought…… thought it was just a sheet of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, but he never expected…… it was actually a National College Entrance Examination‑level test.

He furrowed his brow, glanced at Lu Yu, then at Lao Li and the others, and finally focused his attention on the exercises.

Then…… the Office fell silent again.

"Old Chen, no need to be so serious, this is just a farce." The Vice Principal spoke, afraid that Chen Zhengmin would laugh at them later.

Giving a seven‑year‑old a National College Entrance Examination test—what else is that if not a joke?

Chen Zhengmin didn't answer; his attention was wholly on the exercises, and his expression grew even more serious.

The Vice Principal grew a little flustered, but at this moment he didn't dare speak, only able to glare fiercely at Lao Li.

It's over, this time it's over!

The face of Mo Du University of Electronic Science and Technology is about to be lost by Lao Li!

……

After several minutes, Chen Zhengmin finally raised his head, and he looked toward Lu Yu.

"Are these answers your own?" Chen Zhengmin's expression was unprecedentedly serious, his eyes fixed on Lu Yu.

Lu Yu blinked his big eyes, nodded, and said: "Yes. I just finished them here; if you don't believe me, you can ask these grandpas."

"Old Chen, you really don't need to be serious. Just now this kid was bored here, so we gave him a worksheet, and he finished it in less than half an hour."

"So……"

The Vice Principal hurriedly spoke.

"What did you say? Say it again!" Chen Zhengmin's breathing became extremely rapid, his voice grew much louder, almost shouting.

"That Old Chen, don't get so angry—I know you value education, but after all he's just a child……" The Vice Principal's face was already extremely embarrassed.

"I ask you, did this child complete this worksheet independently on his own? He only used half an hour?" Chen Zhengmin uttered this sentence almost word by word.

The weight of his tone, as if it had mass—each word that fell to the ground would send forth a booming echo.

What could the Vice Principal do?

He could only bitterly lower his head.

Boom—

Though outside the sky was blue with white clouds and the weather was fine, Chen Zhengmin felt as if a thunderbolt had struck his head.

His whole body couldn't help but tremble.
