Chapter 82 – Each on Their Own Merit (Part One)

Ye Wanting deliberately straightened her posture, casting a smug look toward Ye Yunxi.

Wasn’t this good-for-nothing still calculating that she would be driven out of the Main Family Residence?

Who exactly would be expelled from the Main Family Residence would soon be revealed!

The gazes directed their way grew increasingly fervent, and even Ye Junlai felt immensely proud!

Although his father wasn’t the Clan Chief of the Ye Family, his daughter was just as capable of ascending to the position of Clan Chief!

Direct lineage?

Hah, weren’t they still being trampled underfoot by those of collateral lines!!

“Master, Jun Yao’s transcript and acceptance letter have arrived!”

Butler Wen’s voice abruptly rang out, and everyone turned to look at the entrance.

The one delivering the transcript was Jiang Baichuan, the exam proctor and also the Dean of Jun Yao.

This time, he had come personally to deliver the acceptance letter.

“Master, this is Jun Yao’s Dean, Mr. Jiang Baichuan.”

The Dean of Jun Yao?!

The Dean of Jun Yao actually came personally to deliver the transcript and acceptance letter?!

What level of prestige must one have to move such a figure to action!

“I always knew Wanting would achieve great things!”

“Yes, and it’s the Dean of Jun Yao delivering them personally!”

“It must be because our Wanting is exceptionally talented! I have no objections to such an outstanding child becoming the Heir!”

“Exactly, why cling to distinctions like direct or collateral lineage? Those who are incompetent should step aside and let capable people lead us, so we can return to the Imperial Sword sooner!”

“Right, so we won’t be dragged down by one person holding back the entire family!”

People loudly flattered Ye Wanting while freely disparaging Ye Yunxi, their gazes sharp as knives, capable of slicing the entire family to pieces in the blink of an eye!

Ye Junlai was also overjoyed—his daughter truly brought him honor!

Even the messenger was such an important figure!

As for Ye Wanting, she was utterly thrilled.

She knew she hadn’t secured first place this time, but her results were definitely sufficient to get into Jun Yao.

She just never expected Jun Yao to value her so highly that the Dean would come in person!!

Ye Yunxi, let’s see what you have left to compete with me now!

Ye Wanting strode down haughtily, even discarding her cane, struggling to stand firm as she positioned herself before Jiang Baichuan.

“Teacher, thank you for taking the trouble to come personally. It just so happens that we’re having a family banquet today—please do stay for a meal before you leave.”

Ye Wanting carried herself with the full air of a Young Miss, as if she were already the legitimate Heir of the Ye Family.

“Then I’ll trouble you!”

Jiang Baichuan smiled politely, but his gaze unconsciously scanned the surroundings.

Where exactly was Ye Yunxi? He wanted to have a proper chat with her.

“Teacher Jiang, you can give the acceptance letter and transcript to me. I’ll take them to show Grandpa.”

Ye Wanting beamed, her eyes expectantly fixed on the acceptance letter.

“Yes, Teacher, since they’re for our Wanting, just give them to her. A few of us would be happy to share a drink with you.”

Ye Junlai swelled with pride, glancing at Ye Junpo and indeed seeing his elder brother hanging his head low.

However, not only did Jiang Baichuan not hand over the acceptance letter, he turned and walked toward Ye Yunxi.

What was he doing, going over to that good-for-nothing?

People looked at Ye Yunxi in confusion, while Ye Junpo and Ye Yunji were both startled.

Why was he coming over?

Had Yunxi done something wrong during the exam that made Teacher Jiang remember her?

No, it couldn’t be that bad, could it??

“The transcript and acceptance letter must be delivered directly into the hands of the recipient for me to have completed my task.”Jiang Baichuan smiled and shook the gifts in his hand, then, in front of everyone, pressed them into Ye Yunxi’s palm.

The entire venue was stunned!

System: Holy crap!! Prestige is about to explode!!
