Wu Duo, Li Xue and Wang Wei were already standing at the main gate, waiting for Qiao Mei to arrive. The moment they saw her, their faces lit up with big smiles.

“You guys are quite early! Why are all of you standing here? Don’t tell me there’s an initiation ceremony for me?” Qiao Mei asked with a laugh.

“Welcome to school, Mentor Qiao Mei!” Li Xue shouted loudly.

Qiao Mei hurriedly went forward and covered Li Xue’s mouth, saying, “Keep a low profile! Don’t let anyone know who I am!”

Qiao Mei was now very famous, especially among students and teachers in the capital. Anyone who claimed to be Qiao Mei’s student would easily be idolized.

“We almost gave up waiting for you and were about to head in. We thought you’re not coming,” Wang Wei said.

Qiao Mei’s stomach was now big and round. In addition, Xu Lan and the others made her wear many layers of clothing and made sure that she was wrapped up tightly, so it was very obvious to onlookers that Qiao Mei was a pregnant woman.

“It’s not an easy task for me to get into Capital University! How can 1 not turn up!” Qiao Mei said.

“What do you mean it’s not easy for you! More like it’s not easy for the three of us! You didn’t need to put in any effort!” Li Xue said with a chuckle.

Actually, Qiao Mei had worked hard for decades and studied very hard for a long time before she finally had some achievements in life. However, these were things that happened in her other life. In this life, she did not have to work very hard and only took one year to become the top scorer of the college entrance examination in the capital. If word got out, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

“Alright, alright! Stop talking about all this! Let’s take a few photos! We must not forget to record such a rare occasion!” Xia He said as she held up the camera.

The few of them stood together and took many photos. Each of them even took a few photos individually. In this era, photo-taking was a very extravagant thing to do. People would only head to the photo studio when there was a major event in their lives. It was rare to see someone who had their own camera like Qiao Mei. In addition, camera film was very expensive.

Many students and parents in the surroundings looked at Qiao Mei t s group and wanted to ask if Xia He could help take photos for them. However, they did not have much money and also did not know what was an appropriate amount to pay.

“Hello, I’d like to ask if you can take a photo for us? Just quote your price! I know that the film is very expensive. I won’t ask to take a photo for free. I’ll pay for it!” a cute girl said to them.

“Are you a new student?” Qiao Mei asked with a smile.

“Yes, I’m Chen Pian, studying agriculture,” Chen Pian said.

“What a coincidence. I’m also studying agriculture. My name is Qiao Mei,” Qiao Mei said.

“Oh my goodness! You’re the top scholar in the capital! I can’t believe I bump into you! I have been so excited since I found out that you and I are majoring in the same subject!” Chen Pian said excitedly.

“This is my elder sister. She can take your photo for five dollars each. We’ll give it to you later after the photos are developed. Can you accept this price?” Qiao Mei asked.

“Of course!” Chen Pian said.

Now that the price was fixed, everyone started to gather around Xia He and clamored to take photos. They first wrote down their personal details such as their major, contact details, name, phone number and so on. After that, they would make payment to Xia He before she took photos for them.

Li Xue and Wang Wei stayed behind to help Xia He. Wu Duo took over Xia He’s task of staying by Qiao Mei t s side and ensuring her safety.

When they reached the university courtyard, Qiao Mei looked at Wu Duo and asked, “Are you still bent on carrying out your previous plan?”

“Of course! I must find them and vent my anger!” Wu Duo said as he clenched his fists.

“I’d advise you to be more rational. It’s a rare chance for you to get into Capital University. You’re different from them. We are students who have gone through the college entrance examination. In the future, your path will be even more glorious. If you get into fights or altercations with others and the school finds out about it, you’ll be given a major demerit. You may get expelled and won’t be able to take the examination again. You should consider your next moves carefully,” Qiao Mei reminded him.

Wu Duo had never thought about all this before. He only had revenge on his mind, but it did not occur to him that revenge came with a price.

“I’ll remember what you said. I’ll try to let it go. It’s a little hard for me to let go of my hatred of them immediately,” Wu Duo said reluctantly.

“Everyone has to walk their own path. It’s good that you will consider it carefully. Don’t let all my hard work go to waste! It isn’t easy for me to produce four university students!” Qiao Mei said as she patted Wu Duo on the shoulder.

“l definitely won’t embarrass you,” Wu Duo said..
