Chapter 896: 353 Jiang University Preparatory Camp 61247524 points! _2 Chapter 896: 353 Jiang University Preparatory Camp 61247524 points! _2 “Sir,” the butler sighed inwardly, but changed the subject, “The young master is being recommended for this year’s top scholarship at Jiang University.”

The top scholarship at Jiang University, that’s like a battle among gods.

If he gets it, pretty much there won’t be any problem with his research placement.

“Hmm.” In the past, Bai Qiming would have been very pleased to hear such topics, but now he could hardly feel happy.

If Bai Shaoke can secure a research placement, what about Bai Lian?

**
Bai Lian hadn’t paid much attention to the matters of Beicheng’s Xuan Kang branch.

After dealing with Beicheng’s affairs with Jiang Fulai, she hurried back to Jiangjing.

The two still had a pile of matters to handle at the research institute.

Ji Heng, however, was not in a hurry to return.

Yang Lin had to stay behind to handle demolitions, she hadn’t taken much vacation this year, her holidays spent either in the lab or working part-time. This time Xia Zhuoyu gave her a long holiday to sort out her family affairs.

So she wasn’t in a rush to return to Jiangjing.

Ning Xiao’s family had no one else, and he didn’t stay longer in Jiangjing either, after knowing that Wang Youfeng had bought the apartment in Shanhai Apartment, he decided to bring his grandmother’s portrait to Jiangjing.

The day after Bai Lian returned, he packed up and headed back to Jiangjing first.

The others decided to stay a few more days in Xiangcheng.

Shanhai Apartment.

Bai Lian returned to room 303 a day early, and Dean Huang asked her about the speech draft she and Ning Xiao were working on.

Both had been recommended for this year’s Celebrity Wall.

They needed to defend and give a speech at the Golden Report Hall.

Jiang University had created a promotional panel for them, which Dean Huang had just sent to Bai Lian to see.

“It’s finished.” Bai Lian leaned against the back of her chair, holding a white silk handkerchief in her right hand, methodically wiping the cyan porcelain vase beside her, her gaze fixed on the enlarged panel on her computer screen.

The panel was a perpetually fresh light green hue.

At the top was the school’s emblem and the words “Jiangjing University” in bold letters.

Below that was a title–
[Jiangjing University Elite Scholars (Undergraduate) Candidate
Department of Physics Bai Lian]
Below that was a bunch of her introductions.

Grades from the Tongfeng class, several major competitions, and even that training abroad, even the paper written with He Wen and Ning Xiao…

All were listed there.

“If you have no issues, we’ll have it displayed on the Celebrity Wall tomorrow,” Dean Huang said satisfied on the phone, “The presentation on the 3rd, is Ning Xiao back yet?”

Bai Lian diverted her attention, “He will be back tomorrow.”

“Good, show me Ning Xiao’s draft for the speech. Twenty professors will be judging on the third, and inevitably there will be people from the Xiang Family among them,” Dean Huang was always pleased with Bai Lian.

Even he couldn’t find fault in the reviews she wrote.

If it weren’t for his teacher beating him to it, he would have made her his direct apprentice without hesitation.

Dean Huang needed to check Ning Xiao’s draft.

Bai Lian ended the call, pulled up Ning Xiao’s WeChat, and asked him to send the speech draft and the PowerPoint presentation over to Dean Huang.

Jiangjing University.

Dean Huang was reviewing Ning Xiao’s draft while talking to Shun Yu.

“Why doesn’t he come to our school?” Shun Yu, holding a thermal mug, paced back and forth in Dean Huang’s office,”I’m about to retire, and I want to see him join our school before I retire.”

Dean Huang multitasked through the speech draft,”You should stop persuading that student.”

Didn’t he think about what the people from Jiangjing University of Political Science and Law were there for?

If not wielding pens to draft laws, then hammering gavels in court, if their president knew that Jiang University still harbored desires for Zhang Shize, what then?

It’s said Zhang Shize even has an obsessive-level teacher.

“So why doesn’t he come to our school?” Shun Yu looked at Dean Huang again.

Dean Huang: “…”

Fine, they’ve turned their dean into a broken record.

He had ceased paying attention to Shun Yu, and was multitasking by finishing the lecture draft, feeling that Ning Xiao had written it exceptionally well. Surprised, he then opened the PowerPoint presentation.

The second slide of the ppt was about the presenter.

The moment he saw who the presenter was, Director Huang immediately closed the ppt.

At this moment, Shun Yu could see Director Huang’s actions clearly and stopped, “Is this Ning’s ppt?”

In the past, it was rare for even one student to make it to the Celebrity Wall each year, but this year there were two, and Shun Yu took this matter very seriously. However, he also worried that Ning Xiao might not pass the voting by the senior professors.

After all, Bai Lian was backed by an academician from the Ma Institute, whereas Ning Xiao was genuinely unaffiliated.

“Yes,” Director Huang calmed down, “As for him, you need not worry.”

**
The next day.

Seven in the morning.

Jiangjing University staff had placed three advertising boards, each over a meter tall, to the right of the huge rock at Celebrity Square.

The school was currently preparing for the orientation of new students.

The staff and many senior students had returned to set up the campus and their respective departments.

Kong Wei and Yu Simin, who were part of the student council and had been promoted to department heads, were now following Ye Jingxian’s lead to set up the physics department’s orientation site early.

Jiangjing also had new students who came early with their parents to tour Jiangjing University, and they checked in at Celebrity Square right away.

In front of them, statues of Liang Zewen and his students filled the first few rows, admired by all. Those closest to them were the names engraved on the huge rock of the Celebrity Wall.

The ultimate aspiration of all students at Jiang University.

Since the inception of this huge rock, fewer than seventy people have achieved this honor.

The last person to have their name engraved on this rock was He Wen, the man who had led the entire Jiang University’s research trend in the past two years.

Everyone was certain that those who appeared on the Celebrity Wall would become leading figures in their respective fields of study.

And today.

The tourists and Jiang University students who routinely visited Celebrity Square to pay their respects saw the three advertising boards placed nearby.

Kong Wei, joining in the excitement, could also see the content of the boards and shouted, “Yu Simin! Come take a look!”

Yu Simin, holding a banner, moved closer and squeezed into the crowd to look.

The middle board had a green background and was slightly taller than the two beside it.

In the top left corner was “Jiangjing University” and its logo.

In the center were four huge characters–

–Report Session–

Golden Report Hall]
On the left and right sides were the two candidates participating in this report session.

On the right was a young man wearing glasses, pale-faced, and looking somewhat melancholic–
Physics Department, Ning Xiao.

The one on the left, well-known to most at Jiang University–
Physics Department, Bai Lian.

That wasn’t all.

Everyone was looking at the description below Bai Lian
[Aims high, stands above all]
*Three SCI papers as second author
*Jiang University Mathematical Modeling Competition First Prize
*Outstanding Graduate of the Winter Summer Camp
…

Bai Lian was only a freshman, when did he participate in the math modeling?

Of course, these were no longer important. At the site, all eyes of Jiang University students were on the last row–
