The Unveiling of Secret Queen-Chapter 331: Nathalie Quinlan Is Not to Be Feared if She Can’t Get Recommended Admission_1
She actually cared a great deal, but she feigned indifference, asking quietly, "By the way, Zayn, are you sure Nathalie is getting recommended for admission to Tsinghua University? With her grades, it seems a bit difficult for her to be recommended to Tsinghua..."
Nathalie’s grades weren’t good.
At least before she came to No. 1 Middle School in McKinney, her grades were barely enough to get into university.
I was recommended to National Artists University initially because of my family’s connections. Secondly, my grades weren’t bad, and I had various piano awards to bolster my application. Even so, I still needed Adelia Tucker’s strong support to barely secure the recommendation qualification from National Artists University.
Nathalie just outperformed herself in the last mock exam, securing the top spot in the whole school. With such a lousy track record, why on earth would Tsinghua University take notice of her?!
That’s Adelle Wafford!
What she was thinking was not much different from Zayn’s thoughts.
Both of them couldn’t believe it was true.
Zayn’s mood had plummeted to an extreme, as if he had received a slap in the face, and hearing her probing him in a soft tone, he was not in the mood to answer her, responding irritably, "I don’t know, but she’s going to attend the independent admissions conference."
That means she didn’t get the recommendation!
Ghania Quinlan quietly breathed a sigh of relief, pretending to be sympathetic, "Tsinghua University’s independent admissions are quite difficult. If she had a chance for recommendation, it would be better to go with that. After all... her grades aren’t that good."
Previously, I had only been in the small area of McKinney. The best school I could see there was just No. 1 Middle School. It was only after coming to Beijing that I realized there truly are ’mountains beyond mountains’.
In this past month, I studied fiercely, and now my academic scores could reach around 580. In McKinney, this would have easily placed me in the top ten.
But in Beijing, that’s just so-so.
However, as an arts student, a score of 580 is quite high. Coupled with my talents, I’m 80% confident about securing a place through Tsinghua University’s independent admissions.
The remaining 20% depends on whether any dark horses will emerge.
"I heard this time, many people will attend the independent admissions. Next to these top students, No. 1 Middle School is nothing. Nathalie... she is just too headstrong."
Ever since we had that fallout, I felt too embarrassed to cheekily call her ’sister’ again.
It was too fake.
After the way things turned out that day, if I continued calling her ’sister’, pretending as if nothing had happened, not only would outsiders not believe it, even I wouldn’t believe it myself.
Since the fallout, Ghania Quinlan was quite clear on one thing, she and Nathalie Quinlan were not on the same path. If we couldn’t get along happily, then everything would be based on ability. We’d see who could climb higher and faster...
Since Nathalie foolishly turned down the chance of being recommended to Tsinghua, she was no longer someone to be feared.
After all, I had been cramming in Beijing for so long while Nathalie lingered in that small place, McKinney. What future could she have?
I didn’t consider Nathalie an issue, and turned to sweetly coo at the person on the other end of the phone, "Zayn, will you be back in Beijing on the day of the independent admissions?"
Zayn found his feelings complex upon hearing her voice. The wine in his glass didn’t taste right: "...Yes."
"I am a school volunteer. I’ll be responsible for reception on that day."
"Really? That’s great! I’ll go to the school early. I hope to see you~"
The girl’s voice on the phone was so soft and sweet, full of joy. One would think I should be immensely satisfied, yet Zayn felt not the slightest satisfaction, only disappointment.
He had just grunted a response when Ghania Quinlan seemed to be hurried by someone on her end. Zayn heard her speak with an excited voice, "Then I’ll see you on the day of the exam."
After speaking, she quickly hung up the phone.
