Choosing a major

Lin Qingyu, Jiang Xing and Shen Huaishi performed well in the college entrance examination and their results were very satisfactory. Shen Huaishi was admitted to a sports university in the capital and Lin Qingyu and Jiang Xing had their choice of any major at any domestic university.

Lin Qingyu finally realized his dream in Jiang Xing’s hometown, his dream that he hadn’t been able to pursue in the Dayu — to attend the nation’s best school for medicine.

As for Jiang Xing’s major…

“As the ruler of a country, you have to learn a lot.” Lin Qingyu flipped through the booklet introducing the different majors and said, “The first is the social sciences, including economics, political science, law, ethics…etc. The country would benefit greatly.”

Jiang Xing: “There’d to be a lot of things to memorize if I took law.”

Lin Qingyu continued, “However, mathematics, physics and chemistry are the basic subjects for the development of science. If you learn science and engineering, you would also benefit the people.”

Jiang Xing: “En…that does seem to be so.”

Lin Qingyu: “Then you should take a double degree.”

Jiang Xing: “Ah…”

Shen Huaishi suggested, “Qingyu, as the saying goes, ‘For the People, Food is Heaven’. The Dayu relies on agriculture to survive. If he learns agriculture techniques, it might help the Dayu avoid famine.”

Lin Qingyu nodded. “That makes sense. In addition, Jiang Xing can learn about urban construction, drainage and water control. It would alleviate the people’s suffering from floods.”

Jiang Xing: “Then what…”

Lin Qingyu pondered the matter. “I don’t know if it is possible to study three or four degrees in the university. But if you can’t, you could still sit in for these classes.”

Jiang Xing couldn’t bear it anymore and said, “Qingyu, do you really love me?”

Lin Qingyu: “I love you.”

Jiang Xing: “…Then shouldn’t you ask me what major I want to take?”

Lin Qingyu was taken aback for a moment and he said apologetically, “I’m sorry, I was negligent. — Then, which major do you like?”

Jiang Xing fell into deep thought.

The only things he liked were sleeping and Lin Qingyu. He didn’t seem to have any special hobbies.

“I like you,” Jiang Xing said with a smile, “So no matter what we study, my dormitory can’t be too far away from yours. It would be best if we’re in the same dormitory.”

Lin Qingyu smiled slightly. “So we can sleep on bunk beds again?”

Jiang Xing: “…”

In the end, the choice of majors resulted in each of the three taking double degrees — one that they liked and one that benefited the country and the people. If one had be exhausted, all of them were to be exhausted.

If “Married Thrice to Salted Fish” happened in modern times

Of course, our Qingyu is still that cold and aloof beauty, a top student of the medical school, with a little dark heart. Though he definitely won’t be poisoning classmates who like to provoke him, he will still silently wish for his stupid classmates to fail the exam.

He then catches the attention of the greasy domineering president (yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince), who wants to keep him by his side as a substitute. Naturally, Qingyu would rather die than submit. The president makes life in school difficult for Qingyu, making it impossible for him to go to school but he’s also unable to go home.

In order not to cause trouble for his parents, Qingyu rents an apartment with what little savings he has. He saw rental ad on the Internet and following the address to locate the building.

Standing in front of the building, he calls the owner but can’t get through. Just as he’s hesitating whether to just go in, a tenant sees his good looks and takes the initiative to chat with him.

“Are you here to rent an apartment? Oh, it’s only 11 o’clock in the morning. Our little landlord must not be up yet. Just knock on his door and if no one answers just pound on it.”

Lin Qingyu: “…Little landlord?”

“He’s only in his early twenties so that makes him a little landlord.” The tenant pointed to the building behind him and said, “Look at this building, it’s all his! That building too! Don’t be fooled by his young age. He shuffles around in his slippers every day, going to the various apartments to collect rent. It’s a complete waste of his XX University degree! I heard that he got a full ride at that school. But after he graduated, instead of getting a job or going to graduate school, he came straight home and just collects rent!”

Lin Qingyu is slightly taken aback. He wasn’t expecting for this little landlord to be his school junior.

Their university is the top in the country, with countless talents from all walks of life. However, this is the first time he’s met a junior in the rental industry.
