Chapter 252: Results

At 12 P.M, the whole internet was buzzing about the results of the national joint exam. The results query website was packed and the server crashed and it was the current trending topic on Weibo. The server crashed till 12.30 P.M. before it was restored by the officials.

Ming City High School.

It was clearly time for lunch but the Year Three building was silent. Everyone was sitting in the classrooms.

In Class One.

Right in front of Gu Yin was Luo Songhua’s laptop. Luo Songhua, Jianghuai, and the rest were surrounding Gu Yin. They were all jumpy.

Jianghuai looked at Gu Yin who was pursing her lips. “Yinyin, the website has been restored. You can access it now.”

Gu Yin nodded her head and she nervously typed in her admission pass number and password before clicking ‘enter.’

She could not sign in at first and only managed to do so on the second try. The web page refreshed and the results were shown in the middle of the web page. She scored 134 for Chinese, 137 for Mathematics, 148 for English, 291 for General Science. Her total score was 710. It was exactly the same as the predicted score.

Everyone around Gu Yin breathed in hard. Her results were way too high! Gu Yin looked at the result and frowned slightly. When everyone asked her about her predicted scores, she had told them a lower number. She had actually predicted a score of 720.

Yet the actual score was 710.

“D*mn!” Jianghuai widened his eyes in shock. “710! Yinyin, you’re so smart!”

It was difficult to improve further when in Year Three but Gu Yin managed to boost her scores from the 600 range to over 700. Moreover, the questions this time round were difficult. This year the national joint exam was equally as prestigious as the university entrance exams. In order to sieve out the cream of the crop, it was even more difficult than the university entrance exams.

An “Academic Conference for Top Local and International Schools” was organized in the capital even before the students were admitted. This illustrated the high regard held for the national joint exam.

Ming City High School had not had a student who scored more than 700 in a long time. Unexpectedly, Gu Yin managed to score above 700 this time around. The top student of the cohort was in Class One.

After being defeated for half a semester, Luo Songhua could finally walk with her head high after seeing the results. Just as Gu Yin found out about her results, Lei Xiao called her.

“Sorry, I’ll go pick up a call.” She stood up and smiled gently as she headed outside.

When the call went through, Lei Xiao asked, “Yinyin, how much did you score?”

Gu Yin replied obediently, “710.”

When Lei Xiao heard the results, he was very satisfied. “Not bad, you didn’t let me down. I’ll go inform your Grandpa and the rest.”

Although Gu Yin’s predictive score had been slightly worse than Yi Chen’s, she was still ranked second which was not bad.

Gu Yin hummed a “mm” in reply. She thought for a moment and asked, “Uncle, how much did Sis score?”

Lei Xiao was in a good mood but once Gu Mang was mentioned, he frowned. “Her? She will have done well if she doesn’t score zero. Don’t mention her.”

A pleased look flashed across her face. “I got it, Uncle. I’ll return to the classroom then.”

“Go ahead.” Lei Xiao was especially comforted. Since Gu Yin was promising, she would definitely help him in the future.

…

After Gu Yin had left, Luo Songhua asked Yi Chen’s form teacher about his student’s results via WeChat.

“Exactly 710. He made a mistake in Chinese and only scored 125 but the rest were high. What about Gu Yin?” The other party replied.

Same score as Gu Yin?!

Luo Songhua’s mood became even better as she was seething with excitement.
