Lin Cuihua was so frightened she could barely stand as she handed the phone to An Ning.
"Sweetheart... the president... school..."
"It's fine. If I can enroll, I will. If not, we'll just pick another school."
The president on the other end heard An Ning's voice and screamed himself hoarse, "You can! You can! You can!"
An Ning held the phone slightly away from her ear. After the president finished shouting, she greeted him politely, "Hello, this is An Ning."
"Hello, I'm Wei Chengguo, the president of Beijing University."
The two finally had their first official conversation, though they had yet to meet. The moment An Ning promised to attend Beijing University, the president could finally relax.
The president told An Ning about all the perks the university could offer. An Ning didn't refuse, but she wasn't as thrilled as he had imagined, either. She just said a simple "thank you."
