Chapter 478: Scholarship
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The days went by quickly, and the weather became warmer.
By April, there were many people on the streets with their arms and legs exposed.
Le Yao had also changed into thin clothes and felt much lighter.
After the mid-term exam ended, Hong Xia was still first in her year and had never been surpassed.
Le Yao finally lived up to everyone’s expectations and entered the top ten of the grade, taking eighth place.
As long as one was in the top ten of the grade, they would receive scholarships. However, the amount would fluctuate every time, and the difference was a little big.
For example, in this midterm exam, the first place received 3,800 yuan, the second place received 2,800 yuan, the third place received 1,800 yuan, and the fourth to tenth places received 800 yuan.
However, at the end of last semester, the first place received 8,800.
Basically, if one got first place, they could earn their own tuition fees and living expenses.
Apart from this scholarship, the school had to set up several progress awards every semester. As long as one’s ranking improved by 20, they would be rewarded.
Qian Meiqi, Song Qiaoqiao, and Wang Xia won the Progress Award, which was 200 yuan.
Although it was only 200 yuan, which was not enough for them to buy a lipstick, the meaning it held was significant.
Qian Meiqi exchanged this with her father for a courtyard house in the Imperial Capital because her uncle had already been transferred there. She would go there in the future, so she definitely had to have a place to stay.
This was so generous that Le Yao was speechless.
Song Qiaoqiao and Wang Xia also received a huge reward from their parents.
The only one who hadn’t changed was Qiao Qiao. Her results had always been a little higher than the pass mark. It wasn’t too bad, but it definitely wasn’t good.
However, it had been like this for the past few years and everyone was used to it.
The day before the May holiday, after school at noon, Qiao Qiao accompanied Le Yao on a plane to Sand City, the gathering place of ‘Irreplaceable Food’. They checked into the hotel arranged by the production team. They would gather tomorrow morning and go to the filming location. It was a picturesque town in the suburbs of Sand City.
The production team introduced that a few guests had already checked in. If they were willing, they could go and get to know them. They all lived on the same floor and even told them their room numbers.
Le Yao didn’t really want to go. Anyway, they would see each other tomorrow. There was no need to disturb others now. However, although they didn’t go, someone came straight to their door.
“Qiao Qiao.” Jiang Xiaoxing opened his arms to Qiao Qiao as soon as she entered.
Qiao Qiao rolled her eyes. “Watch your status.”
“Aiya, what’s wrong with hugging my sister?” Jiang Xiaoxing pouted and opened his arms to Le Yao. “Lan, come.”
Le Yao smiled and took a step forward to extend her hand. “Brother Xing, nice to meet you.” “Alright.” Jiang Xiaoxing shook Le Yao’s hand. “With me around, no one will dare to bully you.”
“If you weren’t around, I wouldn’t have let my baby participate.” Qiao Qiao sized him up. “But why do I feel that you..
“What’s wrong with me?” Jiang Xiaoxing immediately became nervous. He looked down at his body. He didn’t seem to have gained weight.
“I feel like you’ve become more handsome.”
“Really? Haha, I knew it. Let’s go. I’ll treat you to a big meal.” Jiang Xiaoxing waved his hand. “1 know a rather authentic private restaurant not far from this hotel. It specializes in local dishes.”
The three of them went downstairs and saw a familiar face in the lobby..
