Chapter 458 Kassel Academy

“You must be kidding…” Lu Mingfei murmured in despair, his eyes empty.

He doesn't believe it.

Still remember that afternoon, there were only him and Chen Wenwen in the classroom. He was wiping the blackboard, and Chen Wenwen, wearing a little white dress and sneakers, was sitting on the podium humming a song. The slanting light of the setting sun shone on the newly replaced desks, and there was ivy hanging outside the window. The evening between spring and summer was exceptionally quiet.

At that moment, Chen Wenwen suddenly turned around and asked, "Would you like to join our literature club?"

Lu Mingfei felt as if he was petrified, with only his heart beating rapidly.

The flowers and plants outside the window grew wildly, the sun set, and the cicadas' chirping seemed to be accelerated a hundred times. Time slipped through fingers, time changed, but the gaze between him and Chen Wenwen was eternal.

"Wait, didn't you say you just came to this world? Then you shouldn't know Chen Wenwen!"

Lu Mingfei seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw, while Lin Changqiang shook his head with compassion in his eyes.

"I have to go to the Yangtze River for something, so you should bring the ingredients back as soon as possible."

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared. Lu Mingfei finally remembered his aunt's instructions. His face suddenly changed and he quickly found the guard.

"Hello, is there any letter for me?"

"Yes, it was sent from America."

The guard threw a letter out, and Lu Mingfei felt it and found only a thin piece of paper inside. He must have failed again. After all, any acceptance letter would always come with a lot of forms and introduction materials, a thick stack. But a letter thanking you for your application and regretting that you were not accepted only needed a piece of printed paper.

He picked up the envelope and prepared to go home and look at it, but the guard threw another list at him.

"Sign for it."

"Do I need to sign for the letter?"

"With the letter came a package."

He signed quickly, took a large FEDEX envelope and returned home. Unfortunately, he was scolded by his aunt for taking too long.

As expected, compared to the superpowers from other worlds, my aunt is more terrifying...

I went back to the room and took out the two envelopes. The thinner one was definitely a rejection.

"Dear Mr. Lu Mingfei:
Thank you for your interest in the University of Chicago, but unfortunately, you were not admitted.

But people often say, "There is more than one road, it just depends on whether you are willing to choose it."

First, let me introduce myself. Cassell College is a private university located in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois, USA. It is a sister school of the University of Chicago and has extensive academic exchanges with the university.

We are very honored to have received your information from the University of Chicago. After careful evaluation, you fully meet the admission standards of Kassel College and hereby extend an invitation.

Please contact Professor Guderian of our school as soon as you receive this letter. He is on an academic visit to China and will arrange an interview with you.

If you have any questions, please contact Professor Guderian. I will assist him in providing you with services.
Finally, I am Norma Lawnes, the College Secretary of Cassell College, and it is a pleasure to meet you.

Yours sincerely,

Norma. "

Lu Mingfei put the letter down and touched his forehead, feeling a little dazed. The idea of ​​applying to study abroad was suddenly brought up by his aunt. She forced Lu Mingfei to fill out the application form and generously paid several dozen dollars in application fees for each school.

After all, among all Lu Mingfei's grades, only English was pretty good. He joined in the fun with his classmates who were all English fanatics in the TOEFL and got a pretty good score.

It's difficult for him to get into a top university with his grades. Plus, it's popular to give up the exam and study abroad nowadays. Why not just apply and give it a try? Maybe he'll get lucky and get an admission letter from an American university?
In this way, she could also account for the huge sum of money that Lu Mingfei's parents sent her every year.

Of course, in addition to this, the aunt also has her own calculations. Although her son Lu Mingze's grades are better than Lu Mingfei's, they are not top-notch and he cannot go to famous universities such as Tsinghua University and Peking University. If he can give up the exam and go abroad, it would be a very face-saving thing.

But going to college is a lifelong thing, and my aunt couldn't bear to let her own son take such a risk.

She thought about it and probably remembered a famous saying, "Any difficult road should be trodden out by the brave with their hard feet." Suddenly she felt that Lu Mingfei was actually quite brave, so she asked him to try to see if he could trample out a path with his hard feet.

It doesn’t matter if she fails. It means this path is blocked and she can postpone it until next year to take the college entrance examination with her son Lu Mingze.

Later, the result became obvious. The difficult road could not be traversed by courage alone. The road was full of thorns and traps. Lu Mingfei had received more than a dozen reply letters in succession, all of which were rejections. But today's letter had an unexpected result.

The beginning was similar to the other letters. After all, the University of Chicago was also a prestigious school, so it would be strange for them to choose him. But what about Cassell College? He had never paid any application fees to this college, and had never even heard of it.

Could it be that his trick of using a small trumpet to pretend to be a girl to tease Lu Mingze was discovered, and this was his revenge prank? However, the envelope was indeed postmarked from Illinois, USA.

In addition to the letter, there was a hard object in the paper bag. Lu Mingfei shook it on the bed and a pure black N96 mobile phone fell out...

He felt that he needed to calm down.

I turned on my phone and found that it still had more than half of its battery left. There was only one contact in my business card folder - Professor Guderian.

"are you happy?"

The sudden sound startled Lu Mingfei. He looked to his side and saw Lin Changqiang enjoying his snacks without any hesitation.

"You mean, this letter is real and not a scam?" He grasped the point sharply.

"Of course, which liar would give you an N96 right away? Parallel imports are worth thousands of dollars." Lin Changqiang looked at Lu Mingfei and smiled happily, "Do you need me to introduce you to Kassel College?"

Lu Mingfei's eyes lit up, and he opened a can of iced Coke and handed it to him: "Brother Gun, please tell me."

Although they had only known each other for a short while, he found that this mysterious man seemed easy to get along with.

"That's better~" Lin Changqiang smiled and drank a sip of Coke, then put it on the table to freeze it into a block of solid ice, leaving Lu Mingfei stunned.

"Caselle College is a private university located in the suburbs of Chicago, Illinois, USA. It is a fraternity school with the University of Chicago. Every year, they jointly organize inter-school competitions such as equestrianism, rowing, hot air ballooning, and swimming, and most of the time, Cassel College wins."

"By the way, their main research area is ancient reptiles."

"Such a niche? Wouldn't it be hard to find a job in the future?"

"Don't worry, they will take care of the assignment."

Lin Changqiang held back his laughter. He was looking forward to seeing Lu Mingfei's expression when he discovered the truth.

"Anyway, don't worry. This is indeed a good university. If you are really worried, then I will tell you another piece of news. Chu Zihang, who ranked first in your school last year, did everything he could to get into this university."
