Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 1341

At the faculty office, everyone was too busy to even realize how late at night it already was, swamped as they were with the student transcripts. Due to the two-month provisional training planned, the school had pushed the teachers to mark the transcripts for students as soon as they could. In that way, the students would still have some time to adjust themselves before another test.

"Miss Wang, has the ranking list come out yet?" someone asked.

There was a female teacher sitting at a desk. With one of her hands adjusting her glasses a little bit, she looked up and replied, "Well, no! Not yet. We are still waiting for Edgar's scores for the extra examinations to be released."

"All right," answered the man and then he walked through the door, heading towards another office. He walked straight to Edgar and asked, "Edgar, have you completed the scores of the extra examinations yet?"

Edgar did not answer the question immediately. After quickly scribbling something on a paper, he then looked up as he closed the file in front of him, and replied, "I've just finished it." He then stood up and handed the file to the man, with a slight nod, as if confirming that he was finished. Edgar's facial expression was peaceful as if he was finally so relieved and had a great peace of mind in that moment.

"Thank you for your hard work, Edgar," stated the man as he respectfully took the file from Edgar, with a relieved smile on his face. With a polite inclination of his head, the man left the office again. Everyone was on a tight deadline to get the scores processed and announce the top achievers.

There seemed to be a shift in Edgar's mind then. He exchanged a few pleasantries with others in the office and left the building, heading to the dormitory. He walked at quite a slow pace, but he could not help feeling chilled by the cold wind which was blowing.

Meanwhile, in the dormitory, the college students were all basking in the joy of the coming holidays. As for the ones who were going to receive the special training, they were still so happy for the three-day break that everyone of them was too excited to get any sleep tonight. All that they were waiting for was the scores to come out, so that they could go and have some much needed rest and recreation after the arduous exams.

Looking up at the dormitory windows, Edgar smiled knowingly. He could hear the excited talking and laughter of the students within. But one window held his attentions. The light in that window was still on, despite the late hour. His pace slowed even further as he walked past the window, still looking up. The olive-green winter suit really fit Edgar well. It gave him the imposing appearance of an upright evergreen in the snow, and turned heads as he passed. His face always looked so calm and experienced, as if he had been through much, and he exuded a charm which naturally drew people to him.

At this moment, he was wondering what the final test scores were and where Maggie had placed in the end. As he was reviewing the extra examinations a moment ago, he found that there were at least three students who had the same favorable scores as her. So it would not be easy for her to win under the circumstances.
