The Wang Family stood frozen in shock, as if struck by lightning. Qian Guifen's smug smile instantly vanished, replaced by disbelief and intense jealousy. Wang Jianmin's face turned pale, and he looked as if he might collapse at any moment.
They could never have imagined that Li Xiulian, whom they regarded as a "lowly person" and a "fallen woman," would actually be accepted into the best university in the country! It felt like a resounding slap in the face—loud and clear!
What made their despair even worse was that Wang Jianmin's name was nowhere to be found on the honor roll. He had failed! Completely failed!
And what about Zhao Chunyan? She also did not get accepted! Not even into a vocational school! She stared at my name with such venomous resentment and jealousy that it seemed almost tangible.
Without comparison, there is no harm! At this moment, the difference between me and them was like heaven and earth!
Just then, another wave of gasps erupted from the crowd.
"Look! Shen Junyan from the Hongxing Brigade also got in! He’s going to Jinghua University too!"
Shen Junyan had been accepted! And we were going to the same university!
I felt a stir in my heart and looked up, just in time to meet Shen Junyan's gaze from a distance. His eyes sparkled with genuine joy and… a gentle smile of relief.
We exchanged smiles, and everything was understood without words.
That day, the Hongqi Brigade was completely ablaze with excitement! The news of my acceptance into Jinghua University spread like wildfire throughout the region! I became the pride of the entire Communal Association! The county even sent someone to deliver a certificate and a cash prize!
Those who had once looked down on me and mocked me came to congratulate me, their attitudes having done a complete turnaround! My parents finally held their heads high, walking with newfound confidence!
Meanwhile, the Wang Family and the Zhao Family became the laughingstock of the village! Especially the Wang Family; not only did their son fail to get in, but they had also rejected my proposal as their "Golden Son-in-law." They must have regretted it deeply! Qian Guifen was so furious that she fell ill, unable to get out of bed for several days.
Seeing them so defeated filled me with satisfaction! This was retribution!
On the day I received my acceptance letter, the sun shone brightly. I knew that my new life was about to embark on an even more magnificent chapter! The capital city! University! A broader world awaited me!
Bidding farewell to my familiar countryside, I packed a simple bag and set off on the Green Train towards Capital City, filled with anticipation for the future and a hint of nervousness.
The trains of the seventies and eighties were slow and crowded, filled with the smells of sweat, smoke, and various foods. But I paid no mind. Leaning against the window, watching the fields and mountains rush by outside, my heart had already soared towards that bustling city full of infinite possibilities.
Jinghua University, a top-tier institution gathering elite students from all over the country. I had been accepted into the Economic Management Department—a choice I made after careful consideration. I knew that the coming decades would be a golden era for China's economic rise. Studying economic management would allow me to better grasp the pulse of the times and lay a solid foundation for my future career.
Coincidentally, Shen Junyan had also been accepted into the Economic Management Department. We ended up being classmates.
Reuniting in this unfamiliar university campus brought us both a sense of warmth and joy. Shen Junyan helped me carry my luggage, assisted with enrollment procedures, and willingly shared his connections and experiences living in the capital city.
