These rumors also reached Qin Youjiao’s ears.

It made her feel a little more at ease.

Even if Pei Yunge’s temperament had such a great change inexplicably, it could not change the fact that she was mediocre and dull.

“Youjiao, who is Pei Yunge to your family?! How dare she kick my desk today!” Ling Jiwei gritted her teeth and snapped waspishly.

If the form teacher had not given a warning to both parties, she was bound to punish Pei Yunge harshly!

Qin Youjiao’s eyes flashed with a trace of emotion and she touched her bandaged hand.

“Don’t blame her. She’s suffered a bit of a blow ever since she pushed me down the stairs and my brothers sent her to a mental hospital.”

“A mental hospital?”

Ling Jiwei was surprised, to say the least.

“She has always been a loner. In her former school… she was once recommended to quit.”

Qin Youjiao smiled. “It seems like she was caught cheating in an exam and there was quite an uproar. Don’t spread this out, it’s not good for her.”

Ling Jiwei’s eyes twinkled, but she replied indifferently with a smile. “Of course not. But really, there is nothing to compare between this poor relative and a rich young lady like yourself. I heard that you got second in the end-of-term exams, and first in physics. Mr Jin praises you every day in our class.”

A smile that could not be suppressed appeared on Qin Youjiao’s lips. “I’m in good condition this time.”

…

After school.

Pei Yunge took out her cell phone and found that an unknown overseas number had called her many times. Her eyebrows shot up and the call was answered the moment she called back.

“Is this Miss Pei?”

“Yes,” Pei Yunge replied.

“I’m Marcus and I called you just now. I want to confirm if you are really not considering coming to our country for development?”

This was not the first Marcus had asked about this. He had been trying to persuade her to immigrate and change her nationality.

The expression in Pei Yunge’s eyes dimmed and she gave a lazy chuckle. “Mr Marcus, I hope we can be sensible people.”

“Then why aren’t you staying in your country’s computing institute?” Marcus could not help asking.

He was curious about this person. He knew almost all the top contenders in the field of computing technology, but it was as if she had appeared out of the blue.

As the application deadline was this month, this person had hacked into the official website of their institute of computing technology and deliberately left a loophole.

It seemed like she was polite enough to let them make a choice on whether they wanted her or not. But in fact, she knew that they would let her stay because of her thesis on directionality and data visualization.

“They don’t want me.”

Pei Yunge’s red lips curved, but this reason was not convincing to Marcus. With her level, the computing institutes of various countries would be scrambling to get her to accept them?!

“Okay, then we’ll sign a temporary contract and pay you three months’ remuneration according to your request. If you want to change your mind, our country will always welcome talented people like you,” Marcus said sincerely.

In any circle, ability was first and foremost and this lady had it in spades.

“Thank you.”

Pei Yunge’s knitted eyebrows relaxed and the corners of her lips lifted up. But she did not expect to see Lu Yuansi behind her the moment she turned around.

“I have to go. We’ll talk next time.”

Pei Yunge hung up the call and heard Lu Yuansi ask.

“Who are you talking to?”

“The boss of my part-time job.”

After Pei Yunge had finished speaking, Lu Yuansi realized that most girls of this age liked to wear some accessories, like Qin Youjiao, whose watch alone was worth hundreds of thousands dollars.

But there was nothing of the sort on Pei Yunge.
