My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 2069: I’m Afraid

"Of course, I have to go." Yiyi glared, "I’ve been waiting for this day for so long, this little hand injury won’t stop me."

She was determined to squeeze into the Empire Polytechnic Institute through this exam, even if she had to type with her feet, she would take the exam, nothing could stop her.

"The Empire Polytechnic Institute may not necessarily be suitable for you. To have a good future, you don’t have to go to this school; there are many other prestigious institutions..." Ling Kong’s eyes were deep, his tone somewhat ambiguous.

"Do you think I can’t get in?" Yiyi was dissatisfied. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

"I didn’t say that, though you barely made it into the top fifty in your school, just reaching the application threshold. But your school has only had three people get in each year, based on your grades, the chances aren’t high. The higher the rank, the bigger the gap between each position. You managed to jump from a few hundred to the top fifty, but rising to the top three is extremely difficult."

Yiyi bit her lip secretly. He was so clear about her situation, it seemed he had been keeping people to monitor her. Don’t worry, even if she had the chance to escape now, she wouldn’t leave this city.

However, what he said was not without reason; in fact, it made a lot of sense. The higher the rank, the harder it is to climb because the students ahead are all top-notch talents, each with extraordinary capabilities and stable grades.

Basically, each year, only those in the top ten choose to apply to the Empire Polytechnic Institute. No one outside the top twenty has ever applied.

But Yiyi felt she hadn’t fully unleashed her potential. She always had a premonition that she could stand out with this opportunity.

Despite the inexplicable confidence, she had Professor Du Le as her treasure trove. The knowledge she learned was much broader and deeper than her classmates’.

"I’ve already applied, even if I don’t get in, it’s my own business. Moreover, I will definitely get in." She huffed, implying it was none of his business.

Ling Kong said nothing, though he wondered where her confidence came from, having only attended high school for a year, to surpass countless students and get in. But even if she really did get in, perhaps...

A political opponent’s daughter overtaking the children of all the Councilman Party families to get into the prestigious Empire Polytechnic Institute would probably not be a result her father and the officials would be pleased with. It would boost the enemy’s prestige and leave their side looking weak.

"I need to rest now." Yiyi lowered her head, pulled up the quilt, clearly issuing an eviction order.

She really wasn’t used to being in the same room with this man. If they were confronting each other as enemies, it would be less awkward, but this peaceful chat left people at a loss.

Ling Kong said nothing, walked out of the ward, just in time to encounter Madam Aisha bringing back some nutritious food from the hospital’s cafeteria.

Madam Aisha saw his expressionless face and cringed slightly.

She had always respected this young man with a strong aura. Ever since the war, seeing the drastic changes in him on TV, she felt he was no longer the same person; he had completely transformed, becoming more decisive and fierce, exuding an intense oppressive presence of authority.

She had always been particularly fearful of such politicians who held the power of life and death.

But she still had to muster the courage to greet him, and there was also something she had to bring up.

"Young Master Ling Kong, um, I, I said before, if you helped me save Yiyi, I would do whatever you needed to deal with that person." She bit her lip.
