Chapter 85 -85: Going Directly With The Money_1
Without waiting till the next day, Lao Liu hopped on a bus and headed home right after school that very afternoon.
His home wasn’t far from the county seat, so when he got home, it was just after six, just in time for dinner.
His parents were in the middle of their meal.
Seeing Lao Liu return, both were a bit surprised. It wasn’t the weekend, so why had their son suddenly come home?
“Did you skip school again! I’ve told you countless times, you’re about to take the college entrance examination, you need to study hard. Buckle down and maybe you could get into a college or something.” His father said sternly.
Obviously, he hadn’t given up on Lao Liu completely, he still had the slightest hopes…
“Alright, alright, studying isn’t easy for the child after all, if he can’t get into a university, then so be it. Xiao Liu, you haven’t eaten yet, right? Come on, sit down and eat.” His mother quickly jumped in to defend her son.
At school, his classmates called him “Lao Liu,” but once at home, he naturally became “Xiao Liu.”
Lao Liu didn’t take his father’s criticism to heart, and nonchalantly sat down, saying, “This time, I didn’t skip school. I came back to discuss something important with you guys, something that concerns the rest of my life!”
Hearing him speak so solemnly, his parents were immediately wide-eyed.
But both of them misunderstood. His mother hastily asked, “The rest of your life? Did you get some girl pregnant? Oh, you… why can’t you be more sensible!”
“You little rascal, we’ve spent so much money sending you to a high-profile school for you to study. Look at the mess you’ve made!” His father scolded severely.
Lao Liu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Where did this come from?
Although he wasn’t a great student, he really hadn’t had a “puppy love” before.
After all, with his looks, no girl had ever shown interest in him…
He swiftly waved his hands to explain, “No, no, what are you guys thinking? It’s about my university admission. We had a meeting in class today and the teacher said I have a chance to study abroad in a prestigious university. It’s even better than Tsinghua and Peking University!”
His parents looked at him incredulously.
“You? You can’t even get into a regular college, and now you want to study abroad? Who’s going to believe that! Isn’t it those top students from Tsinghua and Peking University who go abroad for further study after graduating? You’re just a high school student with such poor grades, what prestigious university would want you?” His father expressed serious doubts.
However, what he said was actually the common understanding of most parents regarding the so-called “studying abroad” at the time.
Many people had no idea that there was such a thing as “self-funded study abroad”…
“This sounds so mysterious. Is this really what your class teacher said?” His mother also asked.
Lao Liu directly took a promotional pamphlet from his pocket and handed it to them, “Take a look! This is absolutely true. It just costs some money, hehe.”
His mother and father skeptically picked up the pamphlet and started to flip through it together.
As they read, they were full of admiration.
“Wow, look at their university, it’s built like a palace! It’s way more beautiful than our universities here.”
“This is Moscow University! It’s very famous. Even back in Tsarist Russia, it was a world superpower, no less than the United States.”
However, when they saw the admission requirements at the end, they were also taken aback, the same reaction as Lao Liu when he first saw it.
Could such a prestigious school have such simple enrollment requirements?
As long as you have a high school diploma and a decent unified examination score you can go study there?
“Impossible! It shouldn’t be! This can’t be some scam company trying to fool people, right?” His father, being a small boss, was very cautious.
“Hehe, this is hosted by Yangnan Teacher’s College in our city, co-organized by the Education Bureau and Heluo City Education Bureau, do you think it could be fake?” Lao Liu said triumphantly.
This, of course, was what the homeroom teacher told the class.
Sure enough, his father’s doubts were immediately dispelled.
Whether it’s the Yangnan Teacher’s College or the two city education bureaus, they definitely wouldn’t deceive people, after all, those are state units.
“If there are such good opportunities, why would any high school seniors across the country still take the college entrance examination? They might as well go to Moscow University.” His father shook the promotional pamphlet, still unable to understand it.
“Let me finish; it’s not that simple. Our class teacher explained that this is a self-funded study abroad program, where we need to bear all the tuition and living expenses ourselves. This time, there are only two universities recruiting together. Moscow University requires about CNY 300,000 for the five years, and Friendship University is about CNY 200,000.” Lao Liu revealed the real “threshold”.
At this, his father finally understood.
CNY 200,000 to 300,000…
This is indeed not an amount that an ordinary family can afford.
With this one condition, at least ninety-nine percent of all high school seniors would be ruled out!
But this amount of money was not much for his family.
If he could really send his child to a world-renowned school like Moscow University, he’d be willing to spend this money!
“This is indeed a good opportunity… Regardless of what you’d actually learn there, at least you’d bring back a degree from a prestigious school. And not just any student, but a returning student studying abroad. That reputation is worth CNY 300,000! Where do we sign up for this? We could consider this.” His father’s tone was a bit eager, his heart had obviously been tempted.
“It’s written right here. There’s an on-site promotion conference at Yangnan Teachers College Auditorium on the tenth of this month. There will be education experts from Moscow University and Friendship University on site to answer students’ questions. And we can register right there. The quota is limited, it’s first come, first served.” Lao Liu said calmly.

After contemplating for a moment, his father said firmly: “Then we’ll all go to the city on the tenth and participate in this promotion conference. Also, wife, prepare the money in the next two days. I guess they’ll charge a registration fee, we’ll register there. Let’s just take CNY 300,000 there, if we still can’t get a spot, I’ll be damned!”
Having money is so liberating!
His mother nodded and readily agreed.
This matter concerned the child’s future, and the family could afford the money, so of course, they had to support it.
……
Wang Ye, of course, had no idea what was going on back home in China.
However, he was also full of confidence for the upcoming Study Abroad Promotion Conference.
He had been preparing for many days and was looking forward to reaping…
No, to encourage those students in China who have no place to study, to dare to step out of their country, widen their horizons in foreign lands and establish the correct world view!
Without ever stepping out to see the world, how would one form a worldview?
Just two days before he was set to return to China, Wang Ye again underwent a “metamorphosis”.
In this life, he has also completed the physiological evolution from “boy” to “man”…
Last time, Wang Ye and Angelina were just one step away from making the final step, but due to “bad timing”, nothing happened.
But “relatives” are bound to leave after all.
