21. Chapter 021
After the TOEFL score came out, Ji Cheng scored 108 points.
, this character is so explosive! Ji Cheng danced with her hands with the transcript, but after the initial excitement, she gradually calmed down, after all, she was a skipping grade application, or an international student, even if she passed the TOEFL and SAT scores, she might not be able to successfully apply to the ideal school.
I can only cast a wide net, but fortunately, my requirements are not too high, just a serious school and then finish four years to become a returnee.
Ji Cheng typed "American University Rankings" into the search bar of Du Niang, and then carefully scouted them one by one. Well, the location is too remote to work, and she still wants to go to the city to play crazy in her free time; It is not okay to discriminate against Chinese people too strictly, she doesn't want to suffer school violence anymore; And the school with a good learning atmosphere is not good, she doesn't want to be a top student......-
_-|||Why do you feel that your requirements are actually very troublesome?
According to the characteristics and styles of different schools and the different majors he applied for, it took Ji Cheng two full weeks to write the application letter.
At the end of April, Ji Cheng received two acceptance letters, one from Caltech and the other from New York University.
One is a computer science major and the other is a film major.
Can she say that what she wants most is actually a music major at the University of Redlands, and the QWQ location is in California, which is close to her aunt's house, and it is convenient to find Sandy to play, and the California Institute of Technology is indeed not far away, but computer science is the major she can choose the least she wants to study.
If it weren't for the fact that she chose this major in college in her previous life, it would not be troublesome to relearn it again, so she would not choose any science and engineering major.
Why didn't the University of Redlands want her QWQ because they didn't think she loved music enough? But she can't airdrop the piano and guitar exam certificates from her previous life.
Died a great unjust......
Ji Cheng silently, silently chose New York University. In fact, this university is really good, and if you are too picky, you will be struck by lightning.
But Ji Cheng's parents didn't agree with her choice, originally at Wang Shumei's insistence, five of Ji Cheng's seven application letters were written to universities in California, because to be honest, they were still not very worried about Ji Cheng's age and social experience, and they always felt that they were all in the same state, and it would be much safer to have her aunt's home to take care of them.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's only two days to drive from New York to California, it's not very far." Although it is necessary to drive for 48 hours to get there.
Ji Cheng was very upright and opened his eyes and said nonsense.
In the end, Ji Cheng's parents finally agreed to this matter and began to help her prepare the things she needed to study abroad.
"The baby is going to say goodbye to you, Sayonara, and goodbye." After preparing various formalities, on the last day of school, Ji Cheng solemnly took out a copy of Detective Conan's latest genuine comics from his schoolbag and handed it to Zhao Junyuan, "Xuebajun, go all the way." ”
"You're the one who should have a good journey." Zhao Junyuan squinted at her, then stretched out his hand and took the comic unceremoniously.
At this time, a few girls in the class suddenly came over with some squirming and handed Ji Cheng the classmate list in their hands.
Ji Cheng looked at those girls' hearts notebooks that were either pink or orange in confusion, why did she write it, didn't they all like her?
In fact, Ji Cheng was wrong, not all girls hated her from the beginning, but there was no need for people who had no friendship with her at that time to provoke a powerful character like Chen Mengxin for her, well, at least as a junior high school student, it was very powerful.
And as Ji Cheng became a "scholar" who didn't ask about the world and didn't cause trouble, there were originally some girls who showed favor to her, but Ji Cheng, who was actually their big sister at the same age, was busy coding words, and she didn't think about it and passed it haha, not knowing that they wanted to make friends with her.
Ji Cheng looked at the little eyes of the girls in anticipation, it didn't look like they were cheating, so he quickly took out his classmates and took out a ballpoint pen to write for them. ”
"Then, Ji Cheng, do you have any classmates?" One of the girls hesitated and asked.
Ji Cheng was stunned, thought for a while, and then took advantage of the ten minutes of class time between classes, and ran to the commissary downstairs to buy a classmate directory.
It is estimated that she sold this too late, and there was only a pale yellow Winnie the Pooh classmate directory left in the commissary with an unprinted skin and wrinkles, but Ji Cheng didn't care much about it.
The cute little Pooh is better than a qiē okay ヾ (≧≦*) ゝ
Ji Cheng excitedly dismantled the iron ring of the classmate's record, took down a few and distributed it to the girls, and Zhao Junyuan quickly grabbed one when the girls returned to their respective seats to fill in the classmate's record.
Ji Cheng would look over and smile when he saw it: "Oh, Lao Zhao, if you want to write, just say it, don't be shy." Come on, come on, this bear sticker on it will give you a good one too. ”
"Don't." Zhao Junyuan wrote quickly, without raising his head.
"Yo, write a classmate."
A lazy boy's voice suddenly came from next to Ji Cheng's seat, and as soon as the words fell, a hand shook in front of her and took one too.
Ji Cheng: ...... (# ̄~ ̄#) I endure, it's a big deal to turn around and throw it away.
"Hey, by the way, Ji Cheng, what school did you go to?" Zhou Hai asked her with a smile.
"It's not important." Ji Cheng smiled at him very politely.
From now on, I'm going to stay away from scum, so happy~(≧▽≦)/~
Although it will be difficult to eat rice noodle soup, lamb skewers, sago cakes and sizzling squid on the street for four whole years
New York University's fall semester starts on September 3rd, and Ji Cheng arrived on August 21st, first staying with his parents in a guest house that he had set up before, and playing with them nearby for two days.
Ji Cheng had the experience of traveling abroad in his previous life, and he had made a strategy on the itinerary before, which made his parents very happy.
Wang Shumei and Ji Anguo finally put their minds at ease.
After his parents returned to China, Ji Cheng was alone in a daze at the $100,000 in the newly obtained bank/bank card.
This was brought to her by her uncle, who came to help her with her schooling in place of her parents.
It is said that this is the living expenses for her first two years of college, and according to her uncle, Stone has already paid for her.
Although the cost of living in New York is very high, she has already prepared for a work-study program, and she never expected that Henry's uncle would really cover her tuition and fees.
The Henry family is really rich, no wonder that Alaskan is so plump.
To be honest, in American universities, there are not no college students who are as old as her or even younger than her, so Ji Cheng didn't get much side attention. If she weren't an obvious international student, maybe no one would care about her.
Ji Cheng's dormitory is a common double room, and his roommate's name is Olivia Kelly, seventeen years old, and she is a beautiful girl with brown medium-length curls and green pupils.
When she greeted Ji Cheng in a friendly manner, Ji Cheng felt that her whole world was flooded with pink bubbles.
New York University is such a good place (『) Anyway, Olivia is in the acting department, no wonder she is so beautiful, there must be so many beautiful women in the acting department, it's a pity that she can't get in.
"Hey, Orange, I'm going to the acting department's Pai duì tonight, I might be back late, do you need me to bring you something interesting?"
"Just bring yourself back, sweetheart." Ji Cheng gave her a flying kiss.
"......" Olivia's expression was slightly embarrassed, and then she couldn't help laughing: "Where did you learn this kind of thing?" It's very similar to those rich children who don't learn and don't know how to learn. ”
"Don't compare me to them, I'm self-taught, and besides, I'm a single-minded and affectionate person, and I will never treat my girlfriend badly."
Ji Cheng almost didn't write the big words "So do you want to be my girlfriend" on his face.
It's a pity that Olivia didn't take her words to heart, she was too young, and only thought she was joking: "By the way, speaking of rich kids, today I met Percy Wilson from the Department of Finance, he is so handsome o(*////▽////*)q"
Olivia's tone as if she had found a treasure made Ji Cheng's heart alarmed, so she said in a disdainful tone: "Oh, who is he?" Your new suitor? ”
"If only that were the case." Olivia pouted, "Don't you know? His family owns the second-largest company in the U.S. steel industry. ”
How could she possibly know such a thing? In his previous life, even the rich people in his own country only knew one Ma Yun and one Wang Sicong, what kind of Wilson can compare with my national father and national husband in Dahuaxia? (ˉ▽ ̄~) cut ~~
"But he seems to know you, and after we spoke a few words, he actually asked me if I was your roommate." Olivia reminisced and said to Ji Cheng.
"Oh, then he must have recognized the wrong person. I'm sure I didn't have many friends in the U.S., and I didn't know any playboys. This must be the kind of trick that people seduce beautiful girls, you must not fall for him...... Forget it, if you really like him, then go on a date freely, love is guardianship, not possession QWQ"
Ji Cheng was about to be moved by himself and cried.
"Don't make a fuss, I'm serious, I thought he recognized the wrong person at first, but there is no one else in our school who calls you this awkward fifteen-year-old Asian student, and he actually said your name by name."
Ji Cheng nodded: "It seems that this person has put a lot of effort into chasing you." ”
"......" Olivia felt that sometimes she and Ji Cheng really couldn't communicate on the same brain wave, everyone was obviously fluent and authentic English, and she felt a little tired.
"Okay, okay, you have to be careful when you play on the pie, you can't accept strange boys' ** casually, you can't drink, you must come back before midnight, don't forget."
Ji Cheng, who was obviously a child, said to Olivia very sophisticatedly.
"Okay, I'm leaving." Olivia waved at her.
About half an hour after Olivia left, Ji Cheng felt a little hungry, and rummaged through the cabinets and drawers, only to find two bags of bread slices and sandwich biscuits.
There's not even instant noodles left?!
Ji Cheng glanced at the wall clock whose hands were less than nine o'clock in the evening, put on his coat and walked out. I bought two bags of tomato-flavored "MAMA" brand instant noodles at the student supermarket. On the way back, when I bypassed the tennis court near the dormitory, I suddenly saw a black figure standing in the spur that should not have been anyone.
