After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 375

Chapter 375: Chapter 375 Someone Else Got a Perfect Score!

The first call Jiang Ting received was from the admissions office of Qing University.

Beijing University and Qing University are the two top-tier universities in China, equally reputable and prestigious, and naturally, they’re also competitors.

So, every year when the college entrance exam results are announced, both universities compete fiercely to recruit the top scorers from different provinces to enhance their reputation and attract talent.

The call from Qing University’s admissions office came through with a tone that could be described as eager.

"Hello, Miss Jiang, are you the parent of Lu Sheng, who scored 750, and Lu Youming, who scored 740?"

"May I ask if your two children have already decided on a university? If they are interested in coming to Qing University, we can offer the best benefits, such as scholarships for freshmen and opportunities for studying abroad."

"If they’re interested, we can discuss it in detail. Or if you have any specific requirements, you can let us know directly, and we are open to negotiation."

Forget 750, even 740 is a score that’s nearly unheard of!

It’s no surprise that Qing University’s admissions office took such an active and sincere approach.

This year, Jiang City produced two prodigies, and to top it off, they are siblings. If Qing University could recruit this pair of genius siblings, it would be a golden opportunity to boost their reputation.

Jiang Ting remembered that Lu Sheng’s intended university was Beijing University. However, she didn’t want to reject Qing University outright, so she said they would consider it.

No sooner had she hung up the phone than a call from Beijing University’s admissions office came through, essentially repeating what Qing University had just said, with equally sincere enthusiasm.

In reality, given the Lu Family’s circumstances, Lu Sheng and Lu Youming could decide where to go and apply as usual without needing additional incentives from the schools.

Meanwhile, the call Lu Jingyan received was from Mayor Lin.

On the call, Mayor Lin could hardly contain his excitement, praising Lu Sheng’s phenomenal score as not only the top score in Jiang City this year but the top score nationally, bringing immense honor to Jiang City.

He inquired if it would be possible to allow reporters and the media to visit the Lu Family for an interview. If Lu Sheng was willing to cooperate, she would be on the front pages of all the major newspapers the next day.

Lu Sheng wasn’t particularly interested in being on the front page, but given her long-standing relationship with Lin Yi, Xiao Yan, and Fang Hong—and the fact that Mayor Lin had always been courteous and supportive—she felt it would be impolite to decline. So, she agreed.

Within hours, a crowd of photographers carrying cameras and journalists wearing press badges had enthusiastically gathered at the Lu Family’s home, representing various newspapers and official social media platforms tied to Jiang City.

Every year, the release of the college entrance exam results draws society’s collective attention to the top scorers in each province. What made Lu Sheng stand out was that she wasn’t just a regular top scorer—she was the first perfect scorer in history.

The reporters were brimming with enthusiasm, eager to discover the secrets behind such extraordinary academic success.

But in reality—

-

Reporter: "Lu Sheng, how much time do you spend studying every day?"

Lu Sheng: "Hm? The time spent studying is just the hours we’re in class, right?"

Reporter: ... Why do I suddenly feel like a clown?

-

Reporter: "Lu Sheng, what do you usually do after school?"

Lu Sheng: "Spend time with my Fourth Brother."

Fourth Brother? The same Fourth Brother, Lu Jingyan, who scored 740?

It seemed this sibling duo must be dedicated, even studying together after school.

The comments section was predictably filled with praise, envy, skepticism, and jealousy. But Lu Sheng couldn’t care less—she didn’t even bother to look.

Yet that evening, a call from Lan Yu jolted her out of her post-nap grogginess.

"Shengsheng, did you see it? I’m absolutely shocked. This year’s college entrance exams didn’t just have you—there’s actually another perfect scorer!"

"I’m stunned, like really stunned. A perfect score! In previous years, the highest score was just around 710."

"But this year, besides you, someone else also got a perfect score. What kind of demon is that person?!"

Lan Yu’s comment about a "demon" was merely an exclamation of awe.

She already viewed Lu Sheng’s results as almost superhumanly monstrous, and now someone else had matched her? That was downright incredible.

However, what was casual for Lan Yu triggered serious thought in Lu Sheng.

Could any human really score a 750?

Even a genius like her Fourth Brother couldn’t avoid minor mistakes in subjects like Chinese or English. Who could possibly surpass Lu Youming?

Lu Sheng asked over the phone, "Lan Yu, what’s the name of this person you’re talking about?"

"Oh, the other girl who also got a perfect score?" Lan Yu replied. "I only know she’s from Beijing. And, coincidentally, she went to the same high school as me."

"I heard she had poor health and was homeschooled for a while. Last summer, she had some surgery, and after recovering, she transferred to No. 1 High School." freewebnøvel.coɱ

"But by the time she transferred, I had already come to Shengjing, so I don’t know her personally."

"I didn’t catch her name, but just like you, there are tons of reports about her online now. You two are trending together on the hot search."

"Oh, wait, I found it, Shengsheng!" Lan Yu exclaimed while scrolling through the trending topics. "The girl’s name is... Shi Yuwei."
