Li Mei stood on the podium with a complicated look on her face as she stared at the ‘real gold’ she had rejected.
She was no longer as naive now, thinking that the top scholar of the college entrance examination this time would be a student of hers.
However, since there was Han Jingyu as well, she was more relaxed.
Even though Sheng Yue had been working hard recently and was not affected by her parents’ divorce at all, it was obvious that she was not doing well.
Li Mei looked at Sheng Yang, and the blood in her chest was about to boil. She really wished she could go back to that afternoon more than half a year ago. She would definitely have given herself a good slap!
Everything had come to a full cycle. Back then, she was the one who didn’t accept her. Now, she was also the one who had to watch as the top scholar she missed out on walked toward success.
It was not a long examination, but to Li Mei, it was extremely torturous.
She had already tried her best to stop herself from looking in that direction. The more she looked, the more she wanted to vomit blood.
The first test was Chinese. Other than composition, Sheng Yang finished all the basic questions in less than an hour. She wrote the words quickly and well in her distinct style.
Surprisingly, the essay this time seemed to be tailor-made for her. It was a discussion essay that required deep analysis of a certain phenomenon in today’s society.
These might be more difficult than the usual essays for other students, but she was at an advantage.
As she was a liberal arts student, she knew a lot about politics. When she wrote, her eyes were sharp and she had many things to write about.
After Sheng Yang finished writing, there wasn’t much to check but it wasn’t time for her to hand in her papers…
Li Mei couldn’t help but look at Sheng Yang. She found it strange that there were so many things Sheng Yang needed to draft out for her essay. Moreover, she had been writing furiously and non-stop. It seemed like she had filled the draft paper with densely packed words.
Unconsciously, she walked over. When she saw the contents of Sheng Yang’s draft paper, she staggered violently.
Sheng Yang was calculating the math problem that she didn’t finish last night. Since she didn’t want her to hand in her paper in advance, she decided to just do this here.
Li Mei did not know what to say for a moment, but it was like a tsunami had erupted in her heart.
When it was finally time, Sheng Yang raised her hand and walked out under everyone’s gaze.
Li Mei looked at her back view, then at the papers in her hands.
Her essay was filled with…
***
“Sister!”
As soon as she walked out of the school gate, she didn’t expect that the entire family hadn’t left yet. Sheng Yang’s eyes were sharp and she spotted a car in the shadows. The person’s eyes met hers, but he drove away with a whoosh. It was obvious he was trying to hide something.
From the spot where he had parked, it was a good location. He must have arrived pretty early. He was here when her family dropped her off this morning.
Who else could have such an awkward personality?
It could only be Sheng Tingze.
Sheng Yang witnessed everything but she didn’t say anything.
The family had a tacit understanding. Since she was done with their exam, there was no need to ask anything else.
On the other hand, Sheng Yang suddenly said, “I did okay.”
The several people looked at each other, then their taut nerves loosened. They revealed stunned expressions.
Although they were more anxious than the person taking the exam, they were willing to endure it. Moreover, they were just instinctively worried about her.
Sheng Yang had learned a few things, which was why she said that to reassure them.
