"Miss Yan. A moment please."
Yan Qing Shan stilled her steps and questioningly looked at the people rushing her way. These three men looked like staff of the Media faculty.
She recognized one of them as the one who administered the admissions test. He was behind two other men who seemed insconspicous. The taller one who wore plain black-rimmed glasses had strict features. The other one fell a bit on the short and stout side, his visage was that of a friendly uncle. However, despite being discreet their covertly imposing manners did not miss Yan Qing Shan's eye. She figured they might be higher ups.
She tilted her head, waiting for them to continue. Yan Qing Shan wasn't really sure if she was the one they were calling. After all, Yan Xiaoyi who is also a Miss Yan was still at her tail.
"Ah, Miss Yan. It's good that we were able to catch up to you. Congratulations!"
The friendly uncle said jubilantly while shaking Yan Xiaoyi's fair as jade hands. She looked dumbfounded at the man.
"Ah Assistant Dean, why are you congratulating Xiaoyi?"
It was Shen Ling who voiced the other's obvious thought. Yan Qing Shan merely stood there, looking very much like an uninvolved observer.
The tall man with the strict features lifted up his lips in a small smile, obviously pleased. He turned to Yan Xiaoyi as well, before answering. The teacher behind them who Yan Qing Shan knew, stood agitatedly wanting to interrupt the other two in their felicitudes but failing miserably. She raised her brow at this.
'Heh. I wonder.'
Yan Qing Shan discreetly grinned. Now, this is what she was waiting for. A proper show. The actors were cooperating quite splendidly, as well. It would be a loss to miss it.
"Of course, we will congratulate her. I've seen your work Miss Yan. Truly, it is a masterpiece. You deserve qualifying as our long awaited Ace."
The two were momentarily stunned before Shen Ling released a zealous squeal while looking fervently at Yan Xiaoyi.
"Xiaoyi, you're our Ace? Why didn't you tell me? I thought the only title you have was the Campus Belle. I never would have thought my dearest friend would also be the Ace of the Department. You've hidden deep Little Xiaoyi."
Shen Ling's voice was hyped up that it caused even the students passing by to notice and stop to spectate at them. Yan Qing Shan's grin widened. The audience have arrived.
Yan Xiaoyi blushed at Shen Ling's words. A faint blushed spread in her cheeks to which she tried to 'cover up' with her hands. Yan Qing Shan rolled her eyes. She wouldn't be surprised if she strained her eyes with all these eye-rolling that they were inducing.
"That... Dean, Assistant Dean it's not.."
The poor teacher was once again interrupted. This time by Yan Xiaoyi herself.
"Ling Er, stop teasing me. I knew you were going to act like this so I didn't tell you."
That's it. She really was going to have an eye strain because of their shameless buffoonery. Yan Qing Shan observed the teacher who was being ignored. Tsk. These people didn't even let him speak up. But Yan Qing Shan thought this was better. The bomb he was going to throw later would be enough to maim the limbs of Miss Shameless and Miss Stupid.
"Nooo. That's unfair Xiaoyi. You should have told me. Aaaah. I'm so proud of you. You're not only a beauty, you're also a genius."
Shen Ling's flattering words sparked murmurs in the crowd. This was to be expected. After all, Z University was renowned for its topnotch, quality education. They impose the most rigorous of training and tests for the students of different specialization. It was, in a way, the manufacturer of the country's exceptional experts and geniuses.
One of its unique highlight is the Ace system. The Ace is basically the one best of the best. The one at the top. The elite of the elites. Each department would determine an Ace of every year. They are then gathered in the Ace class.
Every Ace had privileges and freedom an ordinary student would die for. They are exempt to all expenses, are provided allowances, and lodgings at the Ace Villa. They had considerable freedom with their schedules and were given VIP treatment at all the university facilities and affiliates. The only requirement for them is to create a self-sustaining project that would contribute to the country, which of course was easier said than done. But this was enough to test their capabilities.
What made the Ace system even better was that it was open to all students, given that they qualify a certain test the department would conduct. As to when and what test, only higher ups in the department would know.
Usually, the news of a new qualifying Ace would not cause much of an uproar. However, in the media department no one had ever qualifed in the past five years. Until now.
The commotion in front of the Media Department continued to escalate. Until a sudden booming voice successfully interrupted the conversation of the two elated women and the two beaming middle-aged men of the Media Department.
Yan Qing Shan smiled, a certain wickedness enveloping her.
The show has reached its climax.
