"This is my first time going to school! I'm so happy!"

The bitterness from that time lingered in my nose for a long time.

Jiang Tang sat up straight on the sofa and casually pulled Shi Xue into his arms. Feeling the softness of her body, he gently kissed her fair neck.

"Owner……"

Shi Xue's breathing was disordered; she was utterly powerless against her master.

"Time to check your grades. Which website do you need to log in to?"

So Shixue read the tutorial recorded in the parents' group announcement to her owner, one by one.

After searching the website, log in using your examination admission ticket number and ID card number. The initial password is... You will need to change the password when filling out your college application later, otherwise it is difficult to guarantee that there won't be people maliciously tampering with other people's college application choices.

Jiang Tang hadn't finished checking the numbers yet, and he was fumbling around and typing them in slowly.

Ye Shixue's body suddenly trembled violently in a certain part.

Moreover, the vibration frequency is intense and continuous.

Jiang Tang: "? When did you buy this little toy?"

Upon hearing her master's words, Shi Xue's face suddenly turned as red as a guava.

Ye Shixue: "No! No way! Don't talk nonsense!"

She waved her hand frantically, then hurriedly went to find the location where the vibration was occurring.

It's my own phone!

Because I habitually set it to vibrate when I receive calls, and also when I send messages, it keeps vibrating in this situation.

What puzzled Shixue most was why someone would suddenly bombard her with messages at this time, and also make phone calls.

I have no idea how they got my contact information...

Moreover, the sheer number of messages that pop up after unlocking the screen is terrifying.

WeChat showed that within just a few seconds, the number of unread messages had quickly exceeded 99+.

Moreover, people are continuously sending messages and requesting friends to her, perhaps through conversations initiated in WeChat groups, since Shixue does not seem to have set any settings to prohibit conversations within groups.

"Let's mute it first," Jiang Tang calmly suggested, as if he had anticipated this scene.

"Oh, oh!" Shi Xue was somewhat at a loss, so when she didn't know what to do, listening to her master was the best choice!

She then answered the unknown number that had been calling her, biting her lip, and asked a question in a crisp voice.

"Hello... May I ask who you are?"

Before he could finish speaking, the other party eagerly began to introduce the topic.

"Hello, hello! This is Professor XXX from the Tsinghua University Admissions Office. Is Jiang Tang here? You must be his parent, right? What a young parent! Haha. I'm calling to ask if Jiang Tang is interested in Tsinghua. We can offer..."

Xue ignored his empty promises and turned to ask her master.

"Master, are you going to Tsinghua University?"

Shi Xue was completely bewildered and didn't realize how extraordinary this phone call was.

The students who are recruited by Tsinghua University's admissions office... are most likely the top scorers in the province in this year's college entrance examination.

Jiang Tang seemed to have anticipated this scene.

After all, it was an exam with no score control, a test where everyone went all out.

Jiang Tang was still very confident.

"I asked them if they could provide me with an apartment in the city center that is close to the university."

“Okay.” Shi Xue obediently turned to the professor and relayed her master’s words to ask a question.

"Ah, this, this..." The teacher from Tsinghua University's admissions office said "ah, this" several times in a row.

"To be honest, all the other rewards are easy to get, but this house... you know the location of our university is really... could you give us a house somewhere else?"

Because the speakerphone was on, Jiang Tang could hear the other person's reply. He shook his head, and the maid immediately understood.

"Let's keep in touch then, thank you, Professor X."

"Hmm... okay, we still hope you can choose Tsinghua University..."

—Dudu.

After the call was disconnected, Ye Shixue had to immediately answer another call from an admissions officer at a different university.

At this point, Jiang Tang probably realized how much of his personal information had been leaked to the outside world by his alma mater... It really was true.

Oh well, that's just how the world is these days. There's really no security to speak of when it comes to personal identity information.

It's said that you only need to casually say what you want to buy into your phone, and then open the shopping app, and the product you want to buy will appear prominently in the recommended products.

When asked about the recruitment efforts of these universities, Jiang Tang instructed Shi Xue to consistently respond with, "Are there any housing incentives?"

Don't underestimate the value of a province's top scorer. Rewarding them with a house is nothing compared to the other various awards they will receive.

Over the next ten days or so, Jiang Tang was very busy, with interviews from television media and invitations from various businesses.

He will carefully consider his choices and try not to spend too much time on them.

Subsequently, except for some universities located in areas where it was impossible to afford housing, most other universities verbally agreed to Jiang Tang's offer of a school district apartment as a reward.

Jiang Tang felt somewhat helpless at this moment, as his demands were met too easily.

"Then let's choose the university closest to home." Embracing Shi Xue, Jiang Tang was lost in the gentle embrace. All he wanted to do now was slack off and pet the maid. He didn't want anything else to bother him.

Shixue, on the other hand, enthusiastically started taking notes in her phone's notepad: how ranked this school was, which major was good, what the apartment layout was like, how far away it was, and so on.

By listing them one by one, the university with the best cost performance can be selected.

Just as Jiang Tang was about to doze off, she jumped up excitedly, like a rabbit leaping out of the water.

"It's up to you!"

058 A Gathering of Heroes

"Tianfu University, Department of Genetic Engineering?"

"What is that?"

Jiang Tang pinched Shi Xue's bunny, feeling its soft texture, and asked.

Although Tianfu University had considered this from the beginning, the Department of Genetic Engineering... this major is really novel. Is it related to gene matching?

"It's the hottest major right now! Graduates can earn at least a million a year!"

"That's what they say."

Jiang Tang chuckled softly, his grip tightening, causing Shi Xue in his arms to gasp slightly.

"It's another advertorial from somewhere. But it could also be true."

After all, a decade or so ago, secretly engaging in bioscience work that altered genes could lead to arrest, imprisonment, and conviction for "crimes against humanity."

At that time, no one believed in the existence of a gene matching system.

But today, genetics has become the hottest topic, and it seems that every business giant wants to get involved and get a piece of the pie.

Of course, the only entities that can lead genetic engineering are governments and scientific teams in various countries.

However, the emergence of "genetic engineering departments" means that there is a great demand for this field in society, which is why this discipline has been established in universities.

Therefore, it is only natural that graduates from genetic engineering departments are highly sought after in the job market.

"Tianfu University is willing to give the owner a large house of over 150 square meters~ with an open-air balcony and small garden, complete with decoration and furniture, and... um!"

Suddenly, her lips were covered by her owner's finger, and Shi Xue blinked her eyelashes shyly.

"So all that genetic engineering stuff is just fluff; this house is what you really want, isn't it?"

As he spoke, Jiang Tang's hand began to wander... and pinched a pink, soft little thing, warm and moist.

"Because... oh, it's... a wish... to be with Master!"

Shi Xue's words, spoken in a mumbled and strained manner, were also weak, so she could only rely on instinct to clumsily begin to tend to the plants.

"Teasing" your maid is also part of a fun holiday activity.

Jiang Tang dotes on Shi Xue, and even entrusts his own future to her.

And Shi Xue will never let her master down.

Because ultimately...

Isn't her future the master's future?

………………

I hesitated for a very long time, sitting in front of the French windows watching the clouds come and go.

An Qianxi slowly typed out the two Chinese characters that she had deleted countless times.

"Congratulations." Then click send.

She clearly wanted to ask more questions, just like when the two of them were together in the past, so intimately connected.

"Jiang Tang, what university did you list as your first choice? What major do you want to study?"

But when I looked back in a daze, I realized that he was no longer by my side.

The simple "Congratulations" that they could utter was the most distant form of intimacy they could maintain.

My eyes were a little sore, perhaps because I had been staring at the distant sky for too long.

But that was ultimately not the sky of fate that belonged to him and me.

At the same time, Jiang Tang looked at the word "Congratulations" over and over again for a long time.

He also typed a response, typing and deleting, but never managed to form a complete sentence.

There's just too much I want to say.

There are still too few questions.

Fortunately, only Shi Xue's phone was disturbed, as it belonged to Jiang Tang's "parent," so Jiang Tang could now safely use his own private contact information to receive congratulations and blessings from a few people he knew.
