Contract Marriage: Let's Make It Real, Mrs. Sterling!-Chapter 243: Played Driver for the Little Lady
The principal and the dean, two elderly men, each took a test paper and began to read. As time ticked by, the light in the dean’s eyes grew brighter and brighter.
He was looking at the papers from their college, all of which were professional course exams, and each paper was perfect.
The understanding of some literary works was very deep, and she could analyze them from different perspectives, each point being well-founded and not hollow.
Overall, Mia Sutton’s current exam papers are extremely perfect. Don’t even mention the top five in the major; being in the top three is a breeze.
The principal was reviewing some science papers. The difficulty of those exam questions was still quite high, and he didn’t expect Mia Sutton’s high completion rate, with only the occasional minor flaw in one or two questions; the rest of the problem-solving processes were very complete.
After a long while, the principal put down the paper in his hand and asked the dean beside him, "How are the ones you have?"
The dean smiled and said, "Very well. It’s already a very good achievement for a college student to write to this level."
Upon hearing this, the principal placed the paper in his hand on the adjacent table and laughed heartily, "Very good. Mia, we agree to your proposal. You can skip classes usually, but you have to ensure your final exam results are in the top five of your major."
Mia Sutton slowly smiled, "I will. Thank you, professor."
Saying this, she bowed to the two elders.
The principal immediately waved his hand, "Alright, don’t bow to old men like us. This result is the fruit of your own hard work."
"If your results this time hadn’t been good, we wouldn’t have agreed either. So, thank yourself."
Mia Sutton smiled slightly, accepting the compliment. There’s nothing to be modest about. This period, she slept for more than four hours daily, and other times, she’d either be reading or on the way to reading.
Some things are not gained without effort.
...
After both elders finished looking at the questions, they were ready to sit back and continue the unfinished game of Go. The board was already full of pieces, yet no winner had emerged.
After sitting down, the principal waved at Mia Sutton, "Come, come, Melody, come over here."
"I just reviewed your exam, which had knowledge about Go. I noticed you answered the questions thoroughly. Come and see what should be played next."
The dean quickly remarked, "Principal, how can you ask the young ones when you can’t figure it out?"
The principal didn’t care, waving his hand casually, "You can ask too. The two of us can’t continue, maybe the young ones have a way."
The two elders were just joking, and seeing Mia Sutton unmoved, the principal continued, "Come over, Melody. Take a look."
Only then did Mia Sutton walk over, glanced down at the board, and saw that the game was at a stalemate, with both sides locked in a standoff. Mia observed for a long time before picking up a black stone and placing it slowly on a position on the board.
The two sitting beside her, although they asked Mia Sutton to come over just because they found her promising and wanted her to try, had no expectation of her truly breaking the deadlock.
Both of their eyes lit up, and the dean clapped his hands repeatedly, praising her.
The principal: "I never thought that after playing Go for most of our lives, we would end up being bested by a young girl."
"What a marvelous move this is. Since neither side could prevail, she carved a new path. Marvelous."
Both elders had smiling faces. At their age, sometimes the simplest thoughts get overlooked.
The dean chuckled, "We’re indeed regressing as we age."
"Melody, you’re very good, even better than the two of us old folks."
Mia Sutton smiled gently, modestly saying, "How can a student compare to you? It was just a little trick."
The two elders laughed heartily, calling her modest.
Initially, they planned to let Mia Sutton go, but because she made that move, she was pulled into playing several games.
Mia Sutton glanced at her phone during a break and saw that a long time had passed. She then opened WeChat and sent a message to Jensen Sterling. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
"Professor Sterling, I still have something going on here. If you can’t wait, just go."
After sending it, she waited for a reply, but nothing came from the other side. So she put down her phone and began focusing on the game.
Of course, Mia Sutton’s Go skills weren’t as high as the two seniors’, given that they had studied for so long, but her moves were unconventional and often surprising, making her seem equally matched, at least for a while.
...
On the other side, Jensen Sterling waited in his car for a while before getting out to go to the restroom.
And then... he was spotted by the students on campus.
Given Jensen Sterling’s national fame, even if he was fully disguised, he could still be recognized, let alone just wearing a simple mask. Getting identified was just a matter of minutes.
In no time, the news of Jensen Sterling appearing on the Aethelgard campus quietly crawled up the trending list.
Students snapped a few photos secretly, but in the pictures, the man was unmistakably Jensen Sterling.
The man was dressed in a very low-key black jacket, wearing a mask, and even in candid photos, his long legs were hard to overlook.
[Wow wow wow, did Jensen the actor go to Aethelgard for some event? How come we haven’t heard about it?]
[There shouldn’t be, no announcements at all. Unless it’s for filming?]
[It doesn’t seem like it, though.]
[Stop guessing. Don’t you remember, although he did his graduate studies abroad, his undergraduate was at Aethelgard. Maybe he’s just visiting his teachers.]
[Oh oh oh, right, how did I forget?]
[I’m at Aethelgard, and I know that place, it’s beside Kaelara. I need to get dressed and go have a look.]
[Wuwuwu, I also want to see. Regret not studying well, it was entirely my own misjudgment.]
...
Suddenly, many people online began discussing this incident.
Jensen Sterling’s public relations team noticed this trending topic immediately and then contacted Cameron Grant.
Cameron was dumbfounded upon receiving the news, thinking, why did his artist go to Aethelgard?
He hurriedly called to ask.
"Jensen, what are you doing at Aethelgard? Visiting an old teacher?"
Jensen Sterling was walking on the road, noticed some students taking photos, and when he looked over, they hastily put away their phones.
Then he calmly said into the phone, "No, just acting as a chauffeur for my little girl."
Cameron Grant: "...!!!"
Acting as a chauffeur??!
