Jiang Xiu's response made everyone glance towards each other.The grand Mr. Jiang is worried about the college entrance exam? College entrance exam is given so that people could find a job with good prospects in the future after graduating from a university!
Jiang City's underworld is fully within your grasp and you also possess God-like strength. Top students from the Imperial University, as well as the National University, are actually working as interns in companies under Ye Yiliang and Tang Zhenshan.
Do you still need to do the college entrance exam? Please don't joke. This is a blatant provocation towards the Wang family and Wang Xuehai.
The Wang family isn't good to provoke. I fear that Mr. Jiang is courting a disaster.
Time passed by, and seven days went by quick. The underworld bosses of Jiang City were left speechless. Jiang Xiu really hadn't gone to Wang Xuehai's wharf to pay respects. They thought he'd drag it out by a day or two to increase his face so they waited till the third day, but Jiang Xiu showed no indications of leaving for Hang City. The fourth day was the same…
After half a month passed by, they had no choice but to believe Jiang Xiu's words. He wouldn't go to Wang Xuehai's wharf to pay respects.
But it wasn't like Mr. Jiang was obediently studying for the college entrance exam at home, rather he busied himself with cultivating. The happiness cultivation brought to him was something similar to how a primary school student felt when playing mobile games, completely engrossing himself into it. Even a little progress brought pleasure and each circulation gave him a fabulous feeling.
Today, he had come to school, as the seating arrangements for the exam are today. The mood inside the school was quite heavy.
The seatings were allocated by a computer program, making it so that there were fewer students from the same class as possible in an exam hall. This was in order to prevent cheating. In the recent years, many of the examinees had tried to cheat.
Whether it was fate or not, Jiang Xiu was unexpectedly arranged in the same exam hall as Ye Bing which was the classroom of First High's 10th grade Class C.
"Jiang Xiu!"
Hearing someone call out to him, Jiang Xiu turned around and spotted Cheng Lingsu and the others. Ouyang Qian and Li Dan were also among them. At the moment he turned around, they felt that his silhouette matched with Mr. Jiang who they had seen before under the dusky streetlight, but they didn't think it was possible that he was Jiang Luoxia, i.e. Mr. Jiang, who had shaken Jiang City.
"What?"
"Which exam room are you in?" asked Cheng Lingsu.
"First High, 10th grade Class C."
"We don't have the same exam room then. Mine is at our school."
Ouyang Qian commented, "Today might be the last time we'll see each other." The way she said it was as if she was finally getting rid of an annoying housefly and couldn't help but feel happy.
"Haha. It looks like he's in the same exam room as yours, Young Master Ye."
Ye Wenchen nudged his spectacles, "Indeed. Jiang Xiu, you should feel fortunate that you're placed in the same exam room as the future topper of the province. You can boast about it to others for your whole life."
He was blatantly showing his superiority.
His gaze towards Jiang Xiu filled with contempt.
Jiang Xiu just smiled coolly in response.
"This Deity thinks that your chances of becoming the exam topper are nil. It's even doubtful whether you'll qualify for a university."
Ye Wenchen's expression morphed, "What?"
After saying these words, Jiang Xiu turned back and left.
Lin Shu was infuriated, "Is he an idiot? Does he not know that Young Master Ye's provincial ranking in the past seven mock exams this month has always been in the top 3? He actually says that Young Master Ye won't even qualify for a university."
"Wait for the exams to end. He won't even qualify for a polytechnic college and might even get held back a year. He'll have to face the reality then." Ouyang Qian stated fiercely.
Cheng Lingsu shook her head helplessly. She was very disappointed towards Jiang Xiu. After all, they were acquaintances, so she didn't wish for him to have bad luck. But he was really too much, hoping for others to have the same bad luck as him when he himself wasn't putting any effort.
How can I marry him? No way, not even over my dead body.
Maybe he wanted to save some face because I am present here? This is really too pathetic.
….
On the day of the college entrance exam.
The noise around the exam centre in Jiang City were all halted due to a government order. Some of the vehicles were limited to some paths in order to prevent a traffic jam.
The first exam was Literature.
"Hey!"
Ye Bing called out to Jiang Xiu outside the exam room. This was the first time she was speaking to Jiang Xiu after a month since their fallout.
"What is it?"
Seeing his arrogant manners, the anger Ye Bing had suppressed with great difficulty had flared up again, but she still said, "Good… luck for the exam!"
As a classmate, she felt it was necessary to encourage Jiang Xiu despite his grades being subpar. Though it wasn't a guarantee that he will score good grades, she hoped he will display all his strength.
"Don't worry. This Deity's grades will be better than yours."
Damn it. This Lady has come with kind intentions and you actually respond in such a hateful manner.
Ye Bing stamped her feet in anger and entered the exam room.
The invigilators' appearances were quite fierce. They comprised of a man and woman. As soon as Jiang Xiu entered the exam room, they glared at him with beast-like eyes. As the invigilators, they had naturally done their homework and knew which students had what grades as all of it is investigated beforehand. They locked onto Jiang Xiu, looking at him as if they were definite he was a student preparing to cheat.
"Cell phone, books and school bag, all these must be left outside. Only stationery items are allowed inside the exam room."
The exam papers were handed out after that. This process had gone smoothly.
The bell rang, formally indicating that the students can begin answering.
"Do you see that exam candidate? He's called Jiang Xiu. He has the worst grades in Second High. According to the news from the school, it's very much possible that he'll cheat." The male teacher spoke to the other invigilator stealthily.
"Okay, I'll watch him carefully."
She walked down in a natural manner and seamlessly reached beside Jiang Xiu, taking a look at the drawer of Jiang Xiu's desk. Her eyes almost popped out. This brat is too crazy.
She saw a bunch of reference material in there. Isn't this way of cheating too inhuman? Aren't you blatantly ignoring the invigilators?
"This student, take out the book in your desk drawer."
All the examinees glanced towards the voice.
Someone got caught while cheating?
Man, the exam has just started too.
Ye Wenchen turned back and felt jubilant after seeing that it was Jiang Xiu, and cursed at him.
"Idiot!" You're really silly to think of cheating during the college entrance exam.
Ye Bing pursed her brows looking at Jiang Xiu. Scoundrel, if you get caught while cheating, your grades will be marked as zero. This is the Literature exam, it'll affect the overall score too much.
"What book?" asked Jiang Xiu.
"Don't act stupid… Huh, where's the book?" The teacher moved her hand towards the desk's drawer but it was empty inside. She bowed down to take a look and it was completely empty, even though she had seen the book there just a few moments ago.
She was stupefied, thinking whether she had seen wrong.
"Ah… N-Nothing then… continue writing…"
She finally concluded that she might've indeed seen wrong. Am I hallucinating due to the hot weather or what?
"Teacher, I hope you can stop disturbing my exam."
"The college entrance exam is something which can decide our fate."
All the examinees present were influenced by this and sent a disapproving gaze towards the teacher.
She felt embarrassed, "Everyone, I'm sorry. It was my mistake. You can continue writing."
The examinees regained their sight and continued writing.
The invigilator was feeling bewildered about how she could've made a mistake as she slowly walked back to the platform, but once she turned back, she was left completely dumbstruck. She saw Jiang Xiu copy from a book on the table.
Fudge! I've never seen someone so brazen. I'll catch you red-handed this time.
"Let's see what excuse you'll make this time!" The teacher shouted and dashed towards him.
She made quick steps using her high-heeled shoes and then grabbed towards Jiang Xiu's book… but she hadn't caught a book and rather grabbed his hand.
She was stunned, "Hah, where did the book disappear to?"
I surely saw the book just now. How can it disappear suddenly?
The examinees looked towards her and saw her tightly grab hold of Jiang Xiu's hand as they began to mutter to themselves. "Everyone says that examinees bear a huge pressure but it's unexpected that the invigilators also face such a huge pressure. This teacher didn't go mad, right?"
"I think it's possible she might have!"
Jiang Xiu said, "Teacher, you grabbing my hand like this, isn't it improper?"
The teacher shook her head, "Impossible. I definitely saw you copy from a book. There's no way it can disappear."
"What book?"
"This teacher has really gone mad."
The invigilator grabbed her head, turning the hair which she had spent 50 RMB to set properly into a mess. This is impossible. I definitely saw it.
