Chapter 441: Making An Exception – Part 1

After meeting with the Principal of Imperial University, Zhang Chenyin, he smiled and said, “I noticed you when you came to Imperial University to participate in the National Youth Computer Science Competition. Originally, I was planning to wait for a year after the college entrance examination to admit you to Imperial University.”
“The dean of the Computer Science department has told me several times that he wants to admit you out of the usual procedure. If it weren’t for me holding him back, he would probably have gone to Jin City to meet you in person.”
Nan Yan, unperturbed by Zhang Chenyin’s praise, replied, “Please thank the dean of the Computer Science department for me. However, I don’t plan to major in computer science.”
“You don’t want to join the computer science department?” Zhang Chenyin was somewhat surprised.
He thought that with Nan Yan’s achievements in computer science, she would definitely choose the computer science department for her university studies.
It seems he had misjudged.
“Then which department do you want to join?”
After taking an interest in Nan Yan, Zhang Chenyin had done some research on her.
He knew that besides her talent in computer science, she had scored full marks in all subjects in the latter half of her sophomore year, including midterms and final exams.
In the competitions she represented Zhide High School in, she had consistently ranked first without exception.
It was perfectly fine for her to choose another department.
After all, her abilities warranted it.
“I want to major in biology.”
Zhang Chenyin had just taken a sip of tea, and when he heard Nan Yan’s words, he nearly choked.
“Cough… cough…” Zhang Chenyin put down his teacup, stopped coughing with some difficulty, and asked, “Nan Yan, are you serious?”
Nan Yan silently handed him a tissue. “I’m a fan of Dean Zong Jinqi. Choosing
Imperial University is a way for me to get closer to my idol.”
Zhang Chenyin took the tissue, wiped his mouth, and then looked at her with a somewhat complex expression. “Nan Yan, to be honest with you, if you wanted to major in any other department, I could easily approve it. But for the biology department…”
He paused before continuing, “Zong Jinqi, that old man, hates it when people use connections. If I speak on your behalf, he might have a very negative impression of you. Even if he accepts you based on my recommendation, he won’t be very accommodating to you.”
The biology department had the fewest students at Imperial University but had the strictest admission requirements.
Their enrollment criteria were simply insane.
As the Principal of Imperial University, Zhang Chenyin couldn’t interfere with Zong Jinqi’s biology department and had to rely on his own preferences.
Sigh…
Nan Yan raised an eyebrow and said, “Principal, you’ve misunderstood. I don’t intend to use connections.”
“Hmm?” Zhang Chenyin was a bit puzzled. “Didn’t you ask Shiyu to call me, wanting to make an exception to bypass the college entrance examination and go straight to Imperial University?”
Qin Shiyu blinked and quickly explained, “Principal, perhaps I didn’t make it clear on the phone. Yanyan asked me to find you, not to request an exception for her admission. She wants you to make an exception for her to participate in the independent enrollment examination again.”
“When Imperial University held its independent enrollment exam, Yanyan was abroad and couldn’t make it. So, she would like to ask for your understanding to allow her to take the exam again after the independent enrollment exam is over.”
It was all because she didn’t explain herself clearly.
But it was also because the principal had agreed right away when he heard that Yanyan was coming to Imperial University. He didn’t ask any questions, so she didn’t have a chance to explain properly!
After Qin Shiyu finished speaking, Nan Yan cleared her throat and looked directly at Zhang Chenyin. “Principal, is it possible?”
“Well, of course it’s possible. Nan Yan, when would you like to take the exam?”
“If you have time, we can do it now.”
“In that case, come with me to Imperial University..”
