“Achoo!” Yao Tang sniffed and rubbed her nose.
The weather had been pretty bad recently, and the seasons were changing. Her sinuses had been acting up.
Yao Tang placedXu Xuan’s bracelet on the table and studied it through a magnifying glass. She could immediately distinguish the fine lines on its surface.
The craftsmanship was very similar to the necklace around her neck, though they had different patterns.
There seemed to be a minor difference in the components of the material used as well.
Xu Xuan’s bracelet was made of the same metal that came with the sheepskin scroll Yao Tanghad previously acquired. Regardless of how it had come into the other girl’s possession, one thing was clear—this bracelet was related to the objectYao Tangwas looking for.
But Yao Tangsensed nothing wrong fromGrandma Xu, nor did she feel anything strange inXu Xuan’s home.
Yao Tang put down her magnifying glass and deposited the bracelet into a wooden box for safekeeping.
Only then did she remember the message she had posted last time. She took out her laptop and logged into the website.
Apparently, the post had caused quite a stir in the online community.
The entire website was in an uproar, and people from opposing points of view were dishing out their opinions without reserve.
There was a group that insisted that no such material could exist in this world.
Another group argued that since the post had said that it existed, then it obviously did. It came with a snarky comment telling the previous group that they were simply idiots for not having found it themselves.
Pretty soon, the two factions were exchanging links to documents and studies that backed up their respective claims.
This prompted the less experienced users to start researching the material on their own, while others claimed that they had already made something out of said material.
They said that they had used scientific facilities to do this, and were willing to show the finished product to anyone interested.
Yao Tang sighed. She hadn’t published her post to achieve this kind of outcome.
She breezed through the irrelevant comments and zeroed in on one that looked to be popular among the users.
The post said that the reason for the material’s insolubility was not its components, but because of certain time and environmental factors that attributed to its lack of compatibility with the substance.
There were also a few daring ones who had privately messaged Yao Tangand told her that they had already developed a way to process the material. They even sent photos and videos as proof.
However, it only took her a single glance to know that their so-called evidence were all fake.
Yao Tang was just about to give up and resign herself to another failure when she received a new private message.
“Hello, I have the material that you want. If you are interested, may we discuss this further?”
As with the ones that came before it, there was also a photo attached to the message.
Yao Tang’s brows furrowed as she looked it over.
She didn’t include a photo of the parchment in her original post, but this person was still able to figure it out accurately. She stared at the picture that contained the very same parchment she had.
Another message popped in just then, this time containing a video file.
It was a recording of a test conducted to ascertain the components of the parchment.
…
Hours later, Li Yuewas wheeling their luggage out ofCity Aairport, her younger brother in tow.
During last night’s family meeting, they had a thorough discussion about the boy’s prospects. In the end, they held a vote and came to a unanimous decision to let Li Chen come to City Ato study.
If he couldn’t improve his grades after a certain period, he was to return to his original school in City F just in time before the school year ended.
It shouldn’t be too much of a hassle, since the two schools weren’t that far from each other.
They wouldn’t have gone to such lengths if it weren’t for Li Chen’s deplorable grades in Mathematics.
He was an excellent student in most other subjects, but Math was his pitfall.
It dragged down his average and rendered his commendable performance in the other subjects useless.
If Li Chen could only boost his grades in Mathematics, he would have better opportunities for college and more universities to choose from.
Li Yue wasted no time and contacted the administrative office ofCity ANo. 1 High Schoolthe very next day.
When the teacher in charge heard that Li Chen was a top student in City F No. 1 High School, he was more than delighted to accommodate them.
If it weren’t for the recent amendment to the school rules, he would have to consult the principal before approving something like this. But now, he could accept new and transfer students at his discretion.
After hearing the details from Li Yue, he immediately related it toPrincipal Kong.
A top student from City F…
All these years, City ANo. 1 High Schoolhad been in a tight competition with City FNo. 1 High Schoolin terms of provincial rankings.
And now, a top student from City F No. 1 High Schoolwas asking to enroll inCity ANo. 1 High School. If the old geezers from City F knew about this, they would likely pull their hair out in humiliation.
