After I Became Famous, the CEO Wants Remarriage-Chapter 98 - Application for Admission Rejected!
Chapter 98 -98 Application for Admission Rejected!
“Ha, the kidnappers had already made their move, had they not? When you called me, how could I know it was out of goodwill?”
Ning Yichu considered carefully. It might have been Li Lingyang’s other business rivals targeting Chen Bao, but Shen Jiangqing remained highly suspicious.
Shen Jiangqing felt anxious but feigned defiance, “If you have evidence, then sue me. Without evidence, even if you tell Aling, he won’t believe it.”
“Evidence, I will find it sooner or later, but I need to remind you—if anything else happens to Chen Bao, don’t blame me. After all, Granny Li likes me as her granddaughter-in-law. Seven years ago, I snatched Li Lingyang from your hands once, and seven years later, I can snatch him a second time. After all, I bore him a son. I have everything you have and even what you don’t!”
“Ning Yichu!”
Shen Jiangqing clenched her teeth in anger, but thinking that Li Lingyang still didn’t know that Ning Yichu was Chen Bao’s mother, she dared not gamble any further.
Su Huimiao and Granny Li’s attitudes were clear to see…
Everyone liked Chen Bao very much.
“Fine, I promise you, I will take good care of Chen Bao and will absolutely not harm him! But you also need to stay away from my fiancé—”
Ning Yichu left with a grim expression.
Shen Jiangqing, you forced my hand!
She would never let Chen Bao live under her shadow for long!
…
Junyue Mansion.
Fan Yuke was stunned for a moment when he received the notification letter from Saint Peter Kindergarten rejecting Ningning’s school application.
“Yesterday they agreed, saying to come and fill out the forms next Monday. How could they change their stance so quickly?”
Ning Yichu simply asked about the procedure, “Can you contact the person in charge of admissions?”
“I can, I have his phone number.”
Ning Yichu’s eyes flashed slightly, “Good, help me contact him. I want to set a trap and meet him personally.”
After all, Saint Peter is the nation’s top private kindergarten; too smooth an application process was suspicious. But no matter, she would ensure Ningning attended there.
Perhaps the other party was too busy as Fan Yuke had to wait quite some time before receiving a reply early the next morning, agreeing to meet on Friday night at Qinzhou Xiaozhu for dinner.
Qinzhou Xiaozhu was a charming restaurant in Imperial City, housed in a building resembling a sailboat.
The interior was stunningly constructed with little bridges over flowing water, which overshadowed similar restaurants in ambiance. This restaurant was also famously expensive.
Friday came in the blink of an eye.
In recent days, she ran between the hospital and company, hardly managing on her own.
Fortunately, her job was quite flexible. Since she frequently traveled to markets and clients’ homes, it sparked no rumors.
She compiled this month’s business conditions for the Jade Sculpture Studio and delivered them to Mo Baiyou’s office.
Mo Baiyou was about to leave with a coat in hand. Seeing her deliver the documents, his eyes softened, “Yichu, you’ve come at the right time. There’s a business gathering tonight related to jade sculpture. I’d like you to join me.”
“Tonight?” Ning Yichu was suddenly troubled.
Mo Baiyou noticed her hesitation, “Do you already have plans tonight?”
“Sort of, I’m sorry, Mr. Mo. How about I send Xiao Ai with you? She’s also quite skilled in jade sculpture.”
Mr. Mo shook his head but didn’t press her, “No need, there will be many people tonight, and Xiao Ai might not handle it well. But no worries, I’ll ask someone else.”
Hearing this, Ning Yichu felt somewhat guilty since he had helped her a lot, even offering her a high salary, yet she couldn’t even accompany him for a professional engagement.
But she had already scheduled an earlier appointment with the admissions officer, so she owed it to the company.
As it goes, sometimes women indeed aren’t as competitive in the workplace because subconsciously, they make more concessions for their children and family.
“Thank you for your understanding, Mr. Mo.”
“We’re good friends, no thanks needed. This isn’t a big deal,” Mo Baiyou said gently, gazing at her, his eyes reflecting her image softly. “If you encounter any troubles in life, you can also speak to me. Although I haven’t been in Imperial City long, I can still offer some help.”
Ning Yichu, not knowing whether he had heard about Ningning being kidnapped, felt a warmth in her heart and nodded, “Sure, if there’s anything you need, just ask.”
Mo Baiyou’s smile curved lightly, reaching his eyes.
After work, as dusk began to fall, Ning Yichu hurried to Qinzhou Xiaozhu.
She had reserved room 603, planning to order first and wait for the admissions officer. However, she was surprised to find that he had arrived before her.
The slightly overweight middle-aged man sat on the couch, looking at her, “Are you, Miss Ning Yichu?”
“I am,” Ning Yichu approached with a forced smile, handing over a gift bag she was carrying, “You must be Director Zhang, right? Hello, hello…”
The man glanced briefly at the gift, probably a bottle of wine, and didn’t pay much attention. His gaze, however, became lascivious as it swept over Ning Yichu.
Miss Shen said she was a beauty, and she truly was.
Curvaceous with long, straight legs—if they were wrapped around his waist…
He could hardly imagine.
He swallowed, “Just call me Brother Zhang. What’s with the formalities? Our school always says entering Saint Peter makes us family. No need to separate you and me.”

That look made Ning Yichu uncomfortable, but for Ningning’s sake, she endured and smiled in agreement, “Isn’t that the truth? Then Brother Zhang, you must help my daughter with her admission.”
“That’s certainly no problem…” The man lecherously smiled and then poured a glass of wine for Ning Yichu, “I felt a special connection with you as soon as I saw you. Let’s drink to that.”
Ning Yichu, of course, wouldn’t drink his wine, silently sneering to herself.
Who knew what this man, pretending to be decent, might have tampered with?
She smiled as she opened a new bottle of wine she had bought herself.
“Brother Zhang, you mustn’t bully your little sister for not knowing the rules. How could I let you pour the wine? I’ve just bought this Maotai. I heard from Yuke that you’re a gentleman among drinkers, and only Maotai is worthy of you!”
She had specifically chosen Maotai to get him drunk, loosen his tongue, and secretly record it, so she could use it as leverage the next day.
Listening to Ning Yichu’s flattery, the man was floating on air, grinning from ear to ear, and began drinking with Ning Yichu.
Ning Yichu was actually quite capable of holding her liquor, but Maotai was strong, and she mostly just humored Director Zhang.
Director Zhang, becoming drunk, started to boast, “Miss Ning, actually there’s no issue with your daughter’s admission, but…
“Moving her over so abruptly affects other parents’ interests, you understand?”
Ning Yichu’s eyes cooled as she immediately connected the dots, “Are you saying other parents are preventing my daughter’s enrollment?”
