Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered

Panda Novel

The reporting time for Beijing University’s freshmen was a little earlier than other schools.

It wasn’t the day of official registration yet, but many freshmen had come to take a tour around the school two days in advance.

Qin Ran hadn’t come to sign up today.

The sun shining brightly overhead, she paused and turned to look at Cheng Juan. “This way?” she asked, pointing in a direction.

Looking up, Cheng Juan nodded and smiled lazily. “Yeah.”

“Miss Qin, have you been to Beijing University before?” Cheng Mu caught up with them.

He was holding a parasol originally intended for her. When Butler Cheng had custom-made it, he had specially ordered it to be in a more girly style, so there was even a circle of white lace on the parasol’s outer ring.

However, she had buttoned her peaked cap and rejected the parasol.

Cheng Juan put both hands in his pockets sluggishly, without any intention of opening an umbrella.

Cheng Mu stiffly followed behind with the lace parasol.

His tough-guy image and 1.83-meter height attracted a lot of puzzled gazes along the way.

But of course, Qin Ran and Cheng Juan still garnered the most attention.

Looking up, Qin Ran glanced at the road ahead and pressed down her peaked cap. She calmly replied, “I checked Beijing University’s map last night.”

Cheng Mu gaped and wanted to ask, Weren’t you practicing the violin like crazy last night?

He didn’t dare to say it out loud, of course.

Qin Ran was here today to choose her second major. She had applied for automation on her university aspiration. The so-called automation was equipment that allowed robots to replace humans or a series of intelligent systems.

Qin Ran had only signed up for it. She had read numerous books one after another from Lu Zhixin ever since she was nine years old. Lu Zhixin had also taught her a lot of content. She remembered him mentioning that he had also been a student at Beijing University in the Automation Department.

Because he could feel Qin Ran’s talent in this area, he had taught her with great diligence.

She wasn’t worried about this as she had self-studied a lot as well.

She needed an Automation Diploma.

But today, she was here to obtain her second major.

Generally, all colleges would open up the selection of second majors in the second year. But Qin Ran didn’t want to waste a year, so she had gone to the Dean of the Physics Department directly.

The phone in her pocket rang. Qin Ran lowered her head and glanced at Qin Ling’s message—

[Sister, we’re here.]

“Your brother?” Cheng Juan looked down and shielded his eyes from the sun.

Qin Ran nodded and turned her phone casually with her fingers. “They’re outside the school,” she replied calmly.

Smiling, Cheng Juan lifted his chin towards Cheng Mu. “Go pick them up.”

**

The Physic Department’s office.

There weren’t many people in school as it was still a vacation period. The Dean of the Physics Department was sorting out the new students’ materials. A middle-aged man sat opposite him.

Someone knocked on the door outside.

The Dean looked up. “Come in.”

Cheng Juan opened the door and let Qin Ran enter first.

Due to the reflection, the Dean didn’t see Qin Ran’s face clearly. He only recognized them when both of them had entered. “Young Master Cheng?”

Then, he turned to Qin Ran and recognized her after a while. “Qin Ran?”

Qin Ran’s data had been included in Beijing University a long time ago. After finding out that she had chosen the Physics Department’s Automation as her major, the Dean had been besieged by other departments’ Deans.

The nation’s top-scorer with a score of 747 was a girl. On top of that, she was also an extremely beautiful girl. He naturally recognized the treasure of the Physics Department.

He stood up with his hands on the table and smiled. “Sit down.”

He was also surprised by their relationship.

“This is Dean Jiang.” Cheng Juan introduced him to Qin Ran.

Qin Ran greeted Dean Jiang politely. “Dean Jiang, hello.”

“By the way,” Dean Jiang said, sitting back down and smiling at her. In front of the Physics Department’s new treasure, he wasn’t stingy with his smiles. “This is the professor of your Automation major, Dr. Zhou Ying,” he said.

After exchanging a few words, Qin Ran revealed her intentions.

“Wait.” Zhou Ying was silent for a while, then he turned to Qin Ran and asked, “What major do you want to minor in now?”

1

“Nuclear engineering,” Qin Ran repeated.

Zhou Ying fell silent and subconsciously frowned.

Dean Jiang was also taken aback, and it took him a long time to speak. “We’ll only open up second majors in the sophomore year. Furthermore… Qin Ran, I advise you to concentrate on only one major.”

After all, she shouldn’t bite off more than she could chew. If she was distracted since the beginning, she could never reach the pinnacle of any field.

Qin Ran was the focal point of the school.

Her sudden decision made Dean Jiang feel put on the spot. He knew that most geniuses were arrogant. Perhaps she had become overconfident due to her smooth-sailing road.

Dean Jiang glanced at Cheng Juan after speaking.

Cheng Juan was sitting casually on the stool, drinking tea slowly. When Dean Jiang looked over, he just raised an eyebrow.

He didn’t say anything.

Zhou Ying’s eyebrows were still knitted tightly.

“If you study two majors in your freshman year, how are you going to allocate your preparation time?” Dean Jiang sat up straight and asked seriously.

Zhou Shan had finally snatched Qin Ran from University A. She was a talent cultivable by the Physics Department in the future, so Dean Jiang didn’t really want her to go astray.

Still as self-righteous as before, Qin Ran said, “I’ll concentrate on studying nuclear engineering.”

Dean Jiang: “… ??” Then why did you choose automation?!

At this time, Cheng Mu came in with Qin Hanqiu and Qin Ling.

Dean Jiang knew Cheng Mu, but not Qin Hanqiu. When he saw Cheng Mu standing behind Cheng Juan, he didn’t ask further and focused on Qin Ran for now.

“Dean Jiang, I’ll take the mid-term and final exams of automation every year,” Qin Ran thought for a while and said. “If I don’t place first at any time, I’ll drop the automation major and concentrate on nuclear engineering.”

Zhou Ying was speechless. Then why did you choose automation and still want to quit?

1

This sentence of hers was pretty arrogant. Zhou Ying laughed angrily after hearing this and simply wanted to knock her awake with a ruler. “Student Qin Ran, do you think automation is so easy to learn? You think you can get a perfect score without attending lessons?”

Qin Ran rubbed her nose and thought, Yes, I can.

But she didn’t say anything.

If she had come alone today, Dean Jiang would have closed the door directly and ignored her nonsense. But unfortunately, Cheng Juan was sitting there drinking tea.

Young Master Cheng’s reputation was too prestigious in Beijing.

However, Dean Jiang also had a countermeasure. He pondered for a while and turned to Zhou Ying. “Dr. Zhou, do you still have the professional examination papers for the finals?”

Beijing University’s midterm and finals papers were very difficult. After all, it was one of the top universities in the country. In recent years, it had even been ranked in the top 50 internationally, so nobody dared apply without any professional standards.

Hearing this, Zhou Ying immediately understood his intentions. He took out his phone and asked one of his assistants to send him last year’s finals examination paper.

It was printed directly in Dean Jiang’s office.

Dean Jiang glanced at Qin Ran. “This is the Automation Department’s freshmen finals test paper. If you can pass it, I’ll approve your second major.”

Qin Ran thought about it. “… Are you sure?”

Dean Jiang breathed a sigh of relief. “Of course.”

While waiting, Qin Hanqiu was cautious at first, but after finding Zhou Ying a little angry, he couldn’t help but whisper anxiously to Cheng Mu.

Cheng Mu knew what Qin Ran was here for, but he also knew that she was an insider of the Yunguang Consortium’s artificial intelligence. He explained to Qin Hanqiu in a low voice.

When Qin Hanqiu heard this, he wasn’t as sure as Cheng Mu and anxiously asked, “So what now? Will Ran Ran leave a bad impression on her teacher?”

Cheng Mu shook his head and whispered, “Don’t worry.”

Before long, Zhou Ying printed four papers.

They were all freshmen papers.

Zhou Ying knew that Qin Ran had scored 150 on her Mathematics paper and didn’t dare to take out the finals paper for advanced Mathematics. He feared that the Dean of the Mathematics Department wouldn’t give up.

Excluding the other miscellaneous basic courses, he printed out four core courses in the end—

University Physics.

Power System Engineering.

Intelligence Control.

Computer Programming.

He handed Qin Ran the four printed test papers.

Qin Ran reached out for them.

Dean Jiang had already stepped aside and offered his desk for her to write her papers.

Zhou Ying stared at Qin Ran. He knew that her theory was very good, so she should perform well in her college Physics paper. After all, it was an extension of high school Physics and included a lot of its contents.

But the other three papers, especially the computer programming paper, would only be learned in the next semester. High school content hadn’t extended into it. Most students new to computer automation would stress him out with their program codes.

Most importantly, how difficult were the final exam questions of Beijing University? They were all test questions for professors in that major!

He had specifically found the four exam papers with the most subjects!

Zhou Ying held a cup of tea and hummed softly. This little kid!
