Chapter 152  : The Hard Exams

Meng Yang came around the corner when he saw the two teens conversing with one another. “So you’re here,” he exclaimed. “I looked around the hallway and didn’t find you there, so I thought you’d already gone to the cafeteria.”

As soon as he said that, he immediately stepped toward Yao Tang. “Hey, Sister Tang,” he eagerly said. “You used the same method as last time, right – where you answer A for the first three questions, and C and D for the next?”

His eyes were sparkling as he gazed up at his friend. Somehow he looked just like a kid who was waiting to be praised.

Seeing the infamous school bully staring up at Yao Tang like he was some type of puppy, Qin Jingburst into laughter. “What kind of face is that?” she guffawed. “Are you waiting for a treat or something? Hold on, I think I have some kibbles in my bag –”

Meng Yang shot Qin Jing a glare, but he didn’t say another word. After all, he was still too busy waiting for the answers.

“AAACD.”

As soon as Yao Tang finally replied to all her unread messages, she shoved her phone back into her pocket and nodded at Meng Yang. The corners of her lips twitched into a smile.

With these two buffoons by her side, her mood couldn’t get any better.

“Hey, I got the first five questions right! I’m so smart!” Meng Yang waved his arms up in the air, jumping up and down as he did so.

He had never felt so satisfied and proud in his life.

“Are you serious?” Qin Jing poured cold water on his excitement. “If Sister Tanghadn’t tutored us on similar questions, do you think you could’ve done something like that?”

At this moment, Yao Ran, who had happened to pass by, overheard the entire conversation. She quietly sat down on the bench by the roadside, with a tree covering her entire figure.

As they were walking down the corridor, she could vaguely hear Meng Yang’s voice, “You really are amazing. How could you guess the questions so accurately? It’s like you know them beforehand. Luckily, I remember –”

Yao Ran’s eyes flashed. While she appeared calm, a cold smile had already appeared on her lips.

“Yao Tang, don’t say I’m the one who threw dirt on you,” she whispered. “You only did this to yourself.”

Let’s see how she’d turn the tables now.

There was no point in competing with her. She might as well scram back to her village where she came from. That was the place befitting for a troublesome bitch like her!

...

The next day, a wave of exclamations echoed across the dormitory as soon as Yao Tang woke up.

“Oh my god, did you see the news from the chat group? Yao Ran got a 133 in Chinese, and 141 in math. She’s such a genius! If only I could get just 2/3 of her score, I could already rest in peace.”

Zhou Xue, who had just seen the news, immediately jumped from her bed.

“She got a high score on such a difficult test?” Lin Xin yelped in surprise.

Everyone knew how difficult the test was. The two subjects had brought everyone down the moment they had received the exam paper. Now that Yao Ran released her results, she couldn’t help but feel a bit squirmish.

“I think she had the same answers as the teacher! Damn, she’s really good.”

Zhou Xue sighed. Yao Ran really was amazing at everything she did.

Even then, Qin Jing didn’t seem too impressed as she sneered. “Let’s wait till the end of the exam till we get the results. She’s probably not as good as she thinks.” She rolled her eyes. “Besides, even if she does well enough, her character has absolutely nothing left to offer, right Sister Tang?”

There was a lot of meaning behind her words.

Usually, those in the Top 5 would secretly compete with each other for a better grade. Now that Yao Ran’s grade had been released first, it would naturally cause a breakdown for many others who were already grappling with their anxiety.

“Yeah,” Yao Tang replied faintly. Instead of partaking in the conversation, she simply picked up her cup from the table and walked into the bathroom to wash up.

It seemed that she wasn’t affected by Yao Ran at all.

When Zhou Xue saw the scene, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

Although she didn’t have a grudge against Yao Tang, she didn’t like the way Qin Jing defended her. The girl was already annoying enough.

Despite this, they continued to stay and chat. As soon as everyone had already washed up, they went to the dining hall together.

...

At 8 AM, the English exam officially began.

Everyone was already clutching their papers as they prayed to all the gods they knew.

Yet, as the others were fretting over their potential averages, Yao Tang was still as lazy and carefree as ever. She finished her exam in a flash, and immediately went back to sleep.

The proctor who had been assigned for this time couldn’t help but glance at her paper.

While the other students were still in the first few pages, it seemed that she had already filled up all of the answer sheet. That, and she had already finished her composition as well.

Since she had finished her test, he really couldn’t say anything more.

Just like that, Yao Tang slept for an entire hour and a half. Her face softened as she rested against her arm. After around half an hour had passed, she’d turn the other side and went off like a baby. It was truly a wonder how she was so calm.

If only the other students were as relaxed as she was.

...

The last exam was held in the afternoon.

The subject was comprehensive science.

As the papers were being handed out, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the questions weren’t as difficult as they had previously imagined.
