Chapter 422
As soon as the two of them went on stage, there was a lot of discussion below.
“Aren’t those two the ones on the field this morning? I was wondering why they looked familiar, it seems that
they’re the seniors on the honor roll.”
“Wow, Celia is so beautiful. She is even more beautiful than her photo on the honor roll. She’s good at her studies
too, so she is really a perfect goddess.”
“David is also so handsome. His grades are not bad too so the two of them are like a perfect match standing
together. What a match made in heaven!”
“Yeah, I envy them!”
Mr. Johnston handed the microphone to Celia.
Celia took the microphone and said, “Hello, everyone, my name is Celia Young. I was admitted to Greenwood
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUniversity from Shu City High three years ago.”
Next, Celia began to talk about some of her experiences of learning and her university life. She was describing it so
vividly that the juniors who were sitting below the stage were all yearning for it.
Mr. Johnston nodded secretly as he watched Celia.
Celia was worth her title of being the leading light in the province for the college entrance examination. What she
said was well-founded, and she was making the students yearn to experience university life.
This was what he intended.
Motivate the students so that they would work harder to face the difficult upcoming year of year in high school.
This would be a crossroads where they would decide their destiny.
Although a university degree would not 100% qualitatively determine the level of achievement in the second half of
a person’s life, if one got admitted to a good university, they would have more choices in the future.
After Celia finished speaking, she handed the microphone to David.
“Hello everyone, my name is David Lidell. I was admitted to South River University from Shu City High three years
ago. As for my study experience and university life, Celia has basically told everyone about it. Her grades are better
than mine so she has more right to speak, therefore I will not talk about it anymore.
“Today, I will directly tell you some practical things. Shu City is a small county and the per capita income is not high.
Since my family was impoverished, I worked part-time when I was i
n high school. In order to ensure the students here will not worry about tuition and living expenses anymore, I’m
going to set up a scholarship fund at the school.
“The beneficiaries of this fund will be all the students studying in Shu City High while the scholarship fund will
support students in two situations.
“First, it will cover the students whose families are really poor. Once they are verified by the school, they can get
funding via the scholarship fund whereby all tuition and living expenses will be exempted.
“Second, students with good academic performance will also receive a scholarship. If you are both a poor student
and have good grades, then you can not only waive all fees but you will also receive a generous scholarship to
subsidize your family.

After David finished speaking, the entire assembly hall fell silent.
Not only the students were shocked, but even the teachers and principal had their jaws on the floor.
They were even suspicious of whether David was telling the truth.
After all, he had been a high school student from an impoverished family, and now, he had not even graduated
from university yet.
Once this fund was established, he would need a lot of money to maintain it every year.
He was just a student who had not yet graduated from university, so how could he take out so much money?
Right now, even the principal had no idea how to respond to his statement.
There were about 1000 students at the scene right now.
David had already said this, and if he could not do it, then it would be very embarrassing.
Mr. Johnston was looking at David with a little annoyance. He was blaming David for not discussing such a huge
thing with him beforehand.
The most important factor was that he had no idea whether or not David had the ability to do as he said.
