Chapter 11

Niu Guixia secretly felt relieved in her heart.

Qin Miao unexpectedly arrived early and even met students from the Aerospace Department! So, to turn things around, she could only go find her old classmate! This time, while transferring trains in the Capital, she found other old classmates and learned that her old classmate from Ha Gong Da had already become a department head!

Unfortunately, Qin Miao didn't apply to the Mechanical Department; otherwise, if admitted, Niu Qiang wouldn't have to worry about his livelihood for the next four years!

Now, we can only turn to this old classmate for emergency help!

But… the campus is so huge, where could one easily find someone? Moreover, to avoid being chased by those behind, she took a side path!

Unexpectedly, after walking a stretch on the side path, the person coming toward her wasn't it her old classmate?

After mutual recognition, Director Lu was courteous; hearing that Niu Guixia's student had been impersonated, Lu Yongping also turned stern, striding over. Impersonation is an extremely heinous act!

At this moment, Niu Guixia wore a confident look. What's a student ID? We have the department head vouching for us!

"Old Lu, see? This is our school's outstanding graduate; as his teacher, I'm proud, and I personally brought him here—yet I never expected… to run into someone impersonating him here…"

Before Niu Guixia could finish speaking, Lu Yongping's excited voice rang out: "Qin Miao, why are you here? Old Zhou's project finished? Come on, let's go join our Department Eight's project together."

Lu Yongping said, strode over, and grabbed Qin Miao.

Niu Guixia was stunned: "Old classmate, this person here is the real Qin Miao! You…"

"Director Lu, is this person the real Qin Miao?" Chen Dinghua asked.

"Exactly, he's Qin Miao!" Lu Yongping turned to Niu Guixia: "Old classmate, I heard someone is impersonating him—who is it? Where? Rest assured, I will uphold justice for you and bring the impersonating scoundrel to justice!"

Under Lu Yongping's stern gaze, Niu Guixia was completely dumbfounded; just now, pressed for time, she could only give a brief introduction without mentioning names, never expecting that this Qin Miao even knew the head of the Mechanical Department!

"Hello, Director Lu, the person beside me is the real Qin Miao!" Niu Guishan, seeing his sister's bewilderment, had to step forward himself.

"Him? Where did he crawl out from some backwater? How could he be Qin Miao?" Lu Yongping glanced at Niu Qiang, utterly stern: "Kid, say, who are you? Why are you impersonating Qin Miao?"

Niu Qiang stepped back: "I…"

Seeing that this cowardly boy was about to confess, Niu Guishan hurriedly said: "He is Qin Miao; we came with all kinds of documents! That person over there has long wanted to impersonate Qin Miao, coming to Ha Gong Da a month early to lay groundwork—this person is extremely deceitful…"

Lu Yongping blinked, then said: "This… won't do; even if the one I'm protecting is fake, I still have to protect him, since I'm waiting for him to work on the project!"

Qin Miao smiled: "Come, Niu Qiang, answer the next question! Since you don't know what comes after hydrogen helium lithium beryllium boron, let's switch: odd changes, even stays the same—what's the next line?"

"I, I forgot!" Niu Qiang still stubborn.

Lu Yongping's face instantly darkened: "Still forgetting? This is clearly a good-for-nothing; how could someone like this get into Ha Gong Da? He must be fake, while the one beside me can solve sophomore exam questions—would anyone still need to impersonate?"

"Professor Chen, these few are definitely imposters! Immediately notify the Security Section and arrest them!" Lu Yongping pointed at the opposite people, then turned to Niu Guixia: "Niu Guixia, I don't have an old classmate like you! Today we're cutting ties!"

"Everyone, surround them, don't let them escape!" Fan Congjun shouted.

"They can't get away!" The surrounding people cracked their fists, eager to fight after a long time, excited!

"What's going on? Why are so many people gathered?" At that moment, someone outside shouted: "Disperse, disperse! Today is the day freshmen report; what are you doing crowding around like this?"

Security Section Chief! The surrounding students scattered like birds and beasts in an instant.

Seeing several people in green uniforms carrying steel guns walk over, Niu Guixia felt dead inside; it's over, completely over! For her nephew, her future is ruined!

"Old Du, it's you!" Niu Guishan's excited voice came: "I'm Niu Guishan, Qingshan Machinery Factory…"

"When the mountains run out and the waters seem at an end, there's still another village beyond the willows and flowers!" Niu Guishan was overjoyed; he, as the Human Resources Section Chief, was well acquainted with the factory's Security Section Chief; they had drunk together a few years prior, even hosting the Security Section Chief's old comrade-in-arms—who is none other than the person before him!

"Indeed, heaven never leaves one without a way!" However, before Niu Guishan could finish speaking, Du Yongfei interrupted him.

"Eh, Qin Miao, why are you here? Old Zhou has been looking for you all afternoon!" Du Yongfei looked at Qin Miao.

"Done, how come every person I meet knows Qin Miao?" Niu Guishan's heart turned completely cold.

"Before, Qin Miao never left Qingshan Machinery Factory, always living in the mountain gullies; yet after this trip, in just a month, he's managed to know everyone here?"

"Director Du, do you also consider this person Qin Miao?" Chen Dinghua asked.

"Exactly! A month ago he came to our Ha Gong Da; I asked Director Lu to give him a test sheet—this kid is brilliant, he can solve sophomore exam questions! What's going on?"

"Director Du, please arrest these three! They're impersonating Qin Miao's classmate to attend our Ha Gong Da!"

"Old Du, old Du, this is a misunderstanding… we've drunk together… the Ma Jianmin, Section Chief Ma of our Qingshan Machinery Factory, is your comrade-in-arms…"

Niu Guishan's saying that only made things worse; upon hearing it, Du Yongfei's face darkened: "Come, arrest those three!"

"Alright, now these three are done for!"

With the task accomplished, Qin Miao glanced around and said: "Fellow senior brothers and sisters, classmates, thank you for standing up for me and clearing my name! Next, these three will be handed over to the Security Section for handling—everyone, disperse now! Even if they have many faults, we can't punish them; after all, we live in a law‑based society… everyone, please absolutely refrain from taking matters into your own hands!"

Slap! Slap slap!

Fan Congjun was the first to go up, swinging left and right at the already restrained Niu Qiang.

"Dare to impersonate my junior brother! I'll beat you until your face is full of peach blossoms—then you'll know why flowers are so red!"

"Dad, someone's hitting me!"

"Bastard, don't you dare touch my son!"

"Everyone, please don't all rush in at once—even if the law doesn't punish the many, our Ha Gong Da students still reason things out…" Qin Miao continued to dissuade.

"Damn it, beat them!"

"Exactly, this family—none of them are good! They deserve a beating!"

"First beat the old man, full of nasty schemes!"

"This woman isn't any good either—she's a middle school principal, pah!"

The three's wails echoed without cease.
