After some discussion, the Yan siblings learned that getting someone into the Affiliated High School by pulling strings was no simple matter.
Liu Jin explained that given how much people in China value education, and with the Affiliated High School's formidable educational resources, there were countless people vying for a spot.
The school's leadership didn't dare make exceptions, so they had to enforce a strict, one-size-fits-all policy based purely on academic merit.
But China was, after all, a society where personal connections held immense power, so there was still some room to maneuver.
Especially after learning that Tian Yu's academic performance was quite good—top five in his class and certainly good enough for a regular key high school—Liu Jin and Mr. Miao both agreed they would speak privately with the Affiliated High School's leadership.
After settling the matter of Tian Yu's schooling, Yan Feifan noticed it was already 8:20 in the morning.
