Chapter 497
“No problem. Just bring Jipsdale University’s timetable over when the time comes. I’ll arrange it for you.”
“Okay. Thanks for your help.”
Nonetheless, she was grateful for the chancellor of the University of Medicine’s support.
“You definitely won’t regret it, Sophie. There’s a rumor that International Medical Association will eventually move to Jipsdale. You’ve got a bright future ahead if you can join them.”
The chancellor had a good point, as joining International Medical Association was every medical student’s dream.
“Do you know Professor Gullifer? He’s joined the International Medical Association and is well known in Chanaea now.”
Words eluded Sophie at the mention of that.
She struggled to retain the flow of the conversation and finally parted her lips and said, “Yeah. He’s really something.”
She could only nod in agreement.
Well, Arius is undeniably an impressive person.
Sitting beside her, Tristan did not utter a single word throughout the conversation.
Although the chancellor had never met Tristan before, the latter’s temperament and aura had caught his attention somehow.
“This is…”
As he regained his composure, he finally noticed Tristan’s presence and recalled that Sophie had yet to introduce the man beside her.
“He’s my boyfriend.”
“I see.”
The chancellor could tell at a glance that Tristan was not someone ordinary.
He was not surprised, though. Since Sophie was a high academic achiever, he believed her boyfriend would be a remarkable man as well.
The chancellor continued to give impressive and wise advice.
When he noticed Sophie was not interested in those, he finally held his tongue.
Deep down, he was excited and couldn’t wait any longer to brag to the others about Sophie joining the University of Medicine.
It was understandable as the University of Medicine had never stood a chance of snatching students from Jipsdale University and Capston University in the past. That day, however, they managed to recruit a high achiever for the university entrance exam effortlessly.
“Since you don’t have any objections, I shall leave for my registration now. I’ll send you the timetable afterward,” Sophie excused herself.
“Sure. I’ll walk you out,” said the chancellor with a smug grin.
The chancellor walked Sophie and Tristan all the way to the registration venue. As the new student whom the chancellor received personally, Sophie made a deep impression on the university teachers.
What impressed them the most was none other than the beauty that made her stand out among the crowd, be it the pretty celebrities in the entertainment industry.
They could not believe such a pretty young lady would join the University of Medicine—a stressful place with no room for one to slack.
“Sir, who’s this young lady? Are you sure she’s not a student from the film academy?” one of the university teachers asked.
She thought a beauty like Sophie should attend a film school instead of suffering in their university.
“This is Sophie Tanner, the high achiever in the university entrance exam. Aren’t you surprised that she’s joining our university? At least I myself never expect that.”
“So she is Sophie Tanner!”
The news media did not report much about the high achievers of the university entrance exam that year.
The university teachers, however, had heard of Sophie’s name before.
She was known to the public as the third daughter of the Tanner Group founder and had a poor reputation long ago.
Little did they expect that the young lady would be one of the high achievers in the university entrance exam that year.
How can there be such a vast difference between us? Not only she excels academically, but she also has a stunning look.
“In short, please serve her well. All of you will be in trouble if she fails to register today.” Since Sophie had come to the door, the chancellor would not let the chance to recruit such a high achiever slip away.
Meanwhile, Sophie’s appearance caused a great stir in the university.
Students who could enter the University of Medicine would not be someone incompetent.
Yet, those high-achieving students lost their composure when they saw a pretty junior on campus.
“D*mn. One look at her makes me want to fall in love.”
“She’s my goddess. So, stop imagining things and get out of my way!”
“Honestly, she looks even prettier than my goddess.”
“Your goddess is as nothing compared to her. Look! Her skin glows without caking on tons of makeup.”
Tristan, who had been listening to the conversation of the guys next to him, couldn’t help but let out another sigh.
The thought of Sophie always getting these guys’ attention no matter where she went made him flustered.
Right then, Sophie completed the registration process and walked to his side. She held his hand directly and interlocked their fingers together, giving him a sense of security.
“Let’s go! It’s time for us to head back.”
Since she had set her mind on Tristan and given him her heart, she would not let other men have thoughts about her anymore.
Seeing their goddess and a handsome man clasping their hands together, the high-achieving students of the University of Medicine felt their hearts break.
“Did you hear that?”
“What?”
“The sound of heartbreaking.”
“Yeah! My heart has been shattered without even starting a relationship with someone. This feeling isn’t good at all.”
“Sure enough, beauties always belong to someone else. I don’t deserve any of them.”
When Sophie and Tristan got to the car, she tried to take her hand off, but he tightened his grip and refused to let go.
“Maybe I should attend university with you,” he suggested.
He wanted to stroll around the campus with her, experiencing campus romance with her once.
“What? That’s not necessary. Don’t worry. I will learn everything within the shortest time possible,” Sophie assured.
“There’s no need to be in such a hurry. Pace your studies, or you’ll drain yourself.” Although Tristan wished to settle down with Sophie, he couldn’t bear to see her overstraining herself.
Besides, learning was supposed to be a process that happened gradually.
“I know.”
Unfortunately, Sophie was a fast learner and had no other choice.
It wasn’t until they arrived at Wisteria Apartments that Sophie received a call from Sunny.
“Sophie, where are you? Something’s happened to Mark. We are at a loss for what to do now. Come over quickly!” said Sunny anxiously.
Sophie frowned upon hearing that.
“What happened? Calm down, and make things clear.”
“Emerald Gang is in trouble. Someone is trying to cause a stir. All of us are here right now.”
In fact, Sunny did not know why he called Sophie at such a critical moment. Sh*t! What’s wrong with me? Isn’t it more dangerous for Sophie to come here alone?
Despite that, he felt it would be better to inform Sophie about the matter for some reason.
“All right, I got it now. Get Mark to stabilize the situation for the time being. I’ll be there in a short while.” As Sophie expected, things would not go smoothly. It was common for gangs to fight for their territories, after all.
“Mhm. Got it.”
Sunny instantly felt relieved when he knew Sophie would be there soon.
“Why don’t you ask for Mr. Tristan’s help? We should be able to get things solved easily with him around,” he suggested.
Anyhow, Sophie was a girl. He thought even if she went over, she might not be able to completely solve the problem.
“Don’t worry about it. I’ll come over now.”
Sophie thought Tristan, who has yet to recover from the injury, should not concern himself with that but leave things to her.
