The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress novel Chapter 538

Chapter 538: 216 paratroopers first to drop, detonating _3

[Name: Liang Wuyu

Total Score: 736

City Ranking: 1

National Ranking: 2]

“It’s actually not him,” Xu En said, looking at those incredible scores. The exam questions this year were so difficult, and yet a score of 736 wasn’t enough to be the top scorer: “Where did this dark horse come from…”

“Our principal is also looking into it,” Xu Zhiyue murmured, “How monstrously well did this person do to not come first with 736 points?”

Ji Mulan was happy for Xu Zhiyue, being third in the nation was something she had found difficult to come by in the past.

If the nation’s top scorer were to appear in the Xu family, what kind of sensation would that cause?

Chief Chen was invited to Ji Heng’s house for dinner today.

He had just gone fishing with Ji Heng yesterday and was now leisurely sitting beside the stone table in the courtyard.

Ji Heng was the one cooking, and the neighbor next door came over to help. As a guest, Chief Chen was chased out of the kitchen.

By Chief Chen’s side.

Tang Ming, biting on a leaf, sat on a stone next to him, one leg slightly bent.

His expression wasn’t great, and Chief Chen, subconsciously thinking he hadn’t done well on the exams, didn’t bring up their scores.

Not until Tang Ming spoke to Pu Xiaohan: “Yang Lin really got 691?”

Banyan leaves gently fell onto his leg, which he flicked away with his hand.

“Yeah,” Pu Xiaohan said sympathetically, “How did you only get 691?”

Tang Ming felt as if his heart had turned to ash, already anticipating what Jiang Fulai’s expression would be when he arrived: “I did too poorly in Chinese; don’t you think your Chinese exam was too freakish?”

Chief Chen sat beside the two.

He took a drag from his cigarette and started to feel something was off halfway through listening.

Chief Chen took part in the betting pool for this year’s Jiangjing college entrance exam. Although he had been out of touch with the college entrance exam for a long time and wasn’t too concerned about it, he had heard that the exam was difficult this year.

“You scored 691 on the college entrance exam?” He remembered Bai Lian’s total score of 450, and upon hearing Tang Ming’s 691, he reflexively asked.

Tang Ming, seeing Jiang Fulai’s cool and distinguished figure appear at the entrance of the yard from the corner of his eye, grimaced: “Uncle Chen, can’t you stop poking at my wound?”

691 points on the college entrance exam, a wound?

Chief Chen’s mind was a mess.

Jiang Fulai came bearing wine, his slender fingers holding the neck of the bottle, placing the pottery jar of wine casually on the stone table. His hair partly obscured his brow, casting faint shadows on his face.

Tang Ming hurriedly got up from the ground, “Teacher Jiang…”

Jiang Fulai, dressed in a simple casual outfit, swept a cold gaze over Tang Ming with his faint eyes. His features were sharp and fierce, and without uttering a word, he walked past him with an air of “Do I know you?” as if he already knew about Tang Ming scoring the same as Yang Lin.

Tang Ming: “…”

Finally, Chief Chen came to his senses, “Xiaotang, you, you scored 691 on this year’s college entrance exam?”

“Yeah.” Tang Ming was despondent.

Chief Chen asked without thinking, “With such a high score, why do you look like that?”

“Ah,” Tang Ming looked up, his tone numb, “Bai Lian 750, the academic god 718. And me, with the same mere 691 as Yang Lin, who hardly studied at all, I’ll probably have to sleep with my eyes open tonight.”

Bai Lian, 750 for the college entrance exam? Ning Xiao, 718? Two 691s?

Chief Chen slowly looked up, confirming Tang Ming wasn’t joking: “…”

After a long while, he turned to look at Tang Ming, who sat with a gloomy face, then raised his eyes to see Ning Xiao coming out carrying a pile of fruit; he glanced at Pu Xiaohan taking photos with a camera, and finally, let his gaze fall in the direction of Bai Lian’s room.
