Chapter 481 – Admission Letter
Lin Bai thought, “Then I’ll give it one more try, study hard and review the knowledge of this era, and get into a university.”
But reality gave Lin Bai a slap in the face.
The identity he had crossed into made it impossible for him to take the college entrance exam.
This was because the father of this body was a murderer.
Not only that, but he had killed the original owner’s mother while drunk.
In the end, the original owner’s mother died, and that scumbag father was caught and executed.
When Lin Bai received this information, he was stunned.
Killed his mother while drunk?
He thought, in his previous life, if his mother hadn’t resolutely divorced and taken him away, it might not have been her who was beaten to death by that scumbag, but him.
So, in his previous life, he and his mother were somewhat fortunate to have escaped the misery early on.
However, even though they had escaped, he still hadn’t made life easy for his mother. He could only helplessly watch her overwork herself, fall ill, and pass away.
In this life, his mother…
Because he had a murderer for a father, he had no right to take the college entrance exam in this life.
He could never take it.
This was a unique law in this world.
But he still wanted to go to university.
So, after signing in at many places and acquiring various resources, Lin Bai asked the system.
Could it give him a chance to go to school?
[Yes, you can. As long as you go to the university you wish to attend in Beijing and sign in there, the system will reward you with a blank admission letter from that school.]
That was the system’s answer.
So, Lin Bai resolutely came to Beijing.
He also arrived at Beijing Medical University.
Beijing Medical University was a famous university in his previous life, specializing in medicine.
It was also the university Lin Bai most wanted to attend in his previous life.
Unfortunately, it was a top-tier school, and in his previous life, Lin Bai had only managed to get into a third-tier university, making it impossible for him to be admitted.
The reason he wanted to attend this university was because Lin Bai wanted to study medicine.
And at this university, there was someone he had specifically learned about in his past life, an extremely important figure: Professor Song Yi.
Speaking of Professor Song Yi, his life was remarkable.
Even as a teenager, due to his extraordinary talent in medicine, he was granted a special exemption to join the military as a medic.
Three years later, just when he had the chance for an even brighter future, he resolutely chose to leave the military and return to his hometown to marry his long-waiting fiancée, Xu Fanghua.
In his previous life, many people who read about Professor Song Yi’s early achievements thought that his decision was a bit of a waste.
Men thought he was being overly romantic, giving up his career for his fiancée, while women believed that Professor Song Yi must have deeply loved his fiancée, who later became his wife.
However, when those who thought Song Yi had given up a great future to marry Xu Fanghua later learned more about Xu Fanghua and discovered she came from the prestigious Xu family, they praised Song Yi’s wisdom.
After leaving the military, Song Yi returned to marry his wife, and in the same year, the college entrance exam was reinstated. Both he and his wife passed the exam.
Song Yi was admitted to Beijing Medical University, the very university Lin Bai now stood before.
His wife, Xu Fanghua, was accepted into Beijing University, and she was the top scorer in the liberal arts section of that year’s college entrance exam.
In the second year after enrolling, the government organized a program for outstanding students to study abroad on a scholarship.
Song Yi was on the list.
When Lin Bai watched Song Yi’s interview, he heard Song Yi say that at the time, he didn’t want to leave his wife, nor did he want to study abroad, even though studying medicine was his dream.
But to him, his wife was more important.
In the end, he still went abroad to study, persuaded by his wife, Xu Fanghua.
So that he would have no regrets.
In the end, Song Yi went, but he had no idea that Xu Fanghua was already pregnant at the time.
While Song Yi was studying abroad, Xu Fanghua gave birth to their eldest daughter, Song Siyu.
Song Yi spent over four years in Country A, completing his studies early and returning to his homeland. By the time he came back, Song Yi’s medical skills were already among the very best.
For a talent like Song Yi, the country naturally entrusted him with important responsibilities.
And later, Song Yi indeed achieved extraordinary success.
Before Lin Bai crossed over into this new world, in the timeline he came from, Song Yi was already in his old age.
He had won countless medical awards and made tremendous contributions to the advancement of human medicine.
Of course, the love story between Song Yi and his wife, Xu Fanghua, also became a widely told and admired tale.
When Lin Bai arrived at Beijing Medical University, the first person he thought of was Song Yi.
He thought, even though this is a parallel universe, Song Yi’s life path should remain unchanged, right?
He wanted to meet Song Yi.
And, if possible, he wanted to become a student at the medical university, to become one of Song Yi’s students.
Lin Bai wanted to study medicine, to save lives.
In his previous life, when his mother fell seriously ill, and he had to watch her pass away without being able to do anything, it was then that he wanted to learn medicine, to cure diseases and save people.
He thought, if in his past life he had studied medicine and been a medical genius like Song Yi, then when faced with his mother’s illness, he wouldn’t have felt so powerless.
Even if he couldn’t have saved his mother.
But with his medical skills, he could have saved others.
To heal the sick and save the dying—that way, he would have been someone useful to society.
“I came an hour early, and yet there’s still no seat left. How are there so many people?”
“Indeed, Professor Song Yi’s influence is massive.”
The remark from the boy beside him snapped Lin Bai back to reality.
They had already entered the auditorium, but there really were no seats left. The hall was packed with a sea of enthusiastic people, all from different schools, eager to hear Song Yi’s lecture.
“No problem, we can just stand here. This spot is good enough,” Lin Bai reassured him.
Of course, having a seat would’ve been nice, but Lin Bai didn’t mind. As long as he could see Song Yi, that was all that mattered.
“Yeah, we should hold onto this spot. More people will come soon,” the boy replied.
“Last time I came, there wasn’t even space to stand.”
“Even outside the hall was packed.”
“By the way, which university are you from?” The boy asked, “I’m Li Wen. What’s your name?”
“I’m Lin Bai. I… I just received my admission letter from this university,” Lin Bai said, his face flushing red.
He knew he was lying.
In reality, he wasn’t even eligible to take the college entrance exam.
And his admission letter—it was something given to him by the system.
Right now, it was in his backpack.
The letter had originally been blank, but now, it had his name on it.
He had asked the system.
Wouldn’t this be discovered?
Wouldn’t the school think something was off?
If someone were to seriously investigate, they would find out that he hadn’t taken the entrance exam.
But the system had assured him it would take care of everything, that it could obscure the details.
Lin Bai knew things probably weren’t that simple.
He also wanted to know how the system managed to blur the information.
But the system hadn’t explained further.
And for the rare opportunity to attend university, Lin Bai chose to turn a blind eye and remain silent.
