Chapter 97: Tsinghua and Peking University
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Today was the day of the college entrance examination. To the entire city, today was very important.
In a crowded place, the police would naturally personally open the way and escort every student to the college entrance examination venue.
The college entrance examination was the day that determined every student’s life.
There was no room for sloppiness.
“Qiaoqiao, I’ve checked for you. I’ve brought everything. See if there’s anything else you need.” Murong Chen flipped through Nan Qiao’s small transparent pencil bag.
It was only filled with basic writing tools and everything could be seen at a glance.
Murong Cheng was very nervous. He couldn’t sleep well this morning. He looked through Nan Qiao’s things and wondered if there was anything else she needed.
On the contrary, Nan Qiao was very calm. After a good sleep, she looked at Murong Chen’s anxious expression and drank her milk leisurely.
“Big Brother, I’ve already prepared everything.”
She only needed to bring two pens for the exam. But to be safe she could also bring a 2B pencil and an eraser.
“Uncle Yang, has my big brother always been like this?”
Knowing that she was about to take the college entrance examination, Nan Qiao wasn’t nervous at all. Instead, Murong Chen was extremely nervous.
Uncle Yang looked at the siblings and smiled kindly. “No. Back then, Young Master was guaranteed admission to Oxford University at a young age before taking the exam. At that time, Young Master was already very mature. He wasn’t as nervous as he is now. Those who didn’t know better would think that he was going to take the college entrance examination.”
Uncle Yang found Murong Chen’s current appearance funny.
This was probably what it means by “the emperor was not anxious, but the eunuch was.”
The Young Miss herself was not in a hurry, but the Young Master was.
Nan Qiao pursed her lips and chuckled. It seemed that Murong Chen still valued her very much.
Other than the last time she was injured, Nan Qiao had never seen Murong Chen so flustered.
A glass cup fell to the ground with a bang, attracting everyone’s attention.
Seeing the glass under Murong Chen’s feet, everyone looked away in a hurry with an unspoken mutual understanding.
On the other hand, Murong Chen’s face turned ashen.
The glass shattered on Little Sister’s exam day… Oh no…
“Qiaoqiao hasn’t gone out yet, right? Quick, quick, quick. This is Fifth Brother’s blessing for you to wear!” Xian Yu hurriedly got out of the car and ran straight into the gate. When he saw that Nan Qiao was still eating breakfast, he heaved a sigh of relief. He finally made it in time and placed the safety talisman in Nan Qiao’s hand.
“Fifth Brother? Why are you back?”
Nan Qiao was a little shocked. She had just received the news two days ago that her Fifth Brother had entered the production team and left the province to film.
“You’re taking the college entrance examination. How can I, as your brother, not participate in such a big event in your life?” Xian Yu was so anxious that he jumped up and down like a monkey.
“Don’t worry, I’ll stay here and watch over you. I’ll go back after you finish your exams.”
Xian Yu realized that his Little Sister would be taking her exams in the next two days and thus, he wrapped up all his filming in the past two days and two nights just to get two days of leave.
Nan Qiao didn’t expect the entire family to view this event so seriously.
Ding-Dong, Ding-Dong, Ding-Dong.
A text notification sounded from her cell phone.
“Good luck with the college entrance exam.”
“I’m your third brother. I wish you success in your college entrance examination.”
“Don’t be too stressed about the college entrance examination. If you fail, we’ll support you when you get home.”
The first two messages were normal. When she saw the last message, Nan Qiao almost spat out the milk in her mouth.
The first message was as short as gold. It didn’t even have many punctuation marks. She didn’t need to guess to know that it was from Nan Jin.
Although the last message didn’t specify who it was, Nan Qiao knew that it should be her Fourth Brother.
She didn’t usually see these Big Brothers, but on the day of the college entrance examination, they actually sent messages to encourage her. Nan Qiao was still very touched.
Xian Yu stretched his head over. He wanted to see who sent the messages to his Little Sister.
In the end, he saw the last message.
“Pfft, pfft, pfft!!! Docs Fourth Brother know how to speak? Although he’s telling the truth, Little Sister still has to work hard for the exam.” Xian Yu corrected him righteously. Fourth Brother had just instilled in their Little Sister the wrong idea.
“Got it, Big Brother. I’ll do my best.” After drinking the last mouthful of milk, Nan Qiao prepared to set off.
After watching Nan Qiao leave, Xian Yu made a call back to scold their Fourth Brother.
“If you don’t know how to speak, don’t speak. No one would think that you are a mute. What do you mean by failing the exam? Our sister won’t fail the exam!”
After a while, there was movement on the other end of the phone. He smacked his lips and said, “I’m telling the truth.”
“You can’t say that even if it’s the truth,” Xian Yu complained.
Little Sister had always been good at her studies, so she definitely wouldn’t be bad.
Amitabha, Bodhisattva, bless her.
A professor in a posh school looked at his phone and fell into deep thought. He pushed his gold-framed chain glasses with his index and middle fingers. He was wearing a gray checkered high-end suit, and his long legs made him look like he’s two meters tall.
His pair of sharp eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of doubt flashed across them.
‘Did I say anything wrong?’
He just didn’t want to pressure her.
Although the person who sent Nan Qiao to take the exam was Murong Chen, Xian Yu had also disguised himself and secretly ran to the entrance of Nan Qiao’s examination school.
There was a large circle of parents at the entrance of the school. All of them were waiting for their children outside. Of course, there was also no lack of reporters.
The reporters were eagerly waiting at the door to interview the first student to come out.
Suddenly, one of the women noticed a man wrapped up like a dumpling standing beside her. She patted the man’s shoulder and asked, “Are you that…”
Xian Yu was alarmed. He thought he was recognized and hurriedly shook his head.
“I’m not. I’m not. I’m not. I’m not—”
Then, he ran away like a thief who had been discovered.
The woman was left dumbfounded.
Naturally, Murong Chen did not miss this scene. He pinched the area between his eyebrows that was hurting. “Go get that idiot here.”
Time passed minute by minute. An hour and a half had passed, but no students came out. It seemed that the questions this year were indeed very difficult.
After another 15 minutes, a student slowly walked out of the school.
“She’s here, she’s here. This student is the first to walk out. Everyone, get ready for the interview,” the reporters reminded each other.
Hearing the crowd outside, Murong Chen looked out and saw that the first person to come out was Nan Qiao.
“Student, are you confident in your college entrance examination?”
“Student, do you think this year’s questions are difficult?”
“Student, how many marks do you think you can get?”
These reporters surrounded her, making it impossible for her to walk out. This made Nan Qiao want to run away.
She brushed her bangs slightly and said energetically, “Entering Tsinghua and Peking University is not a problem.
As for the questions, they are simple.
If nothing goes wrong, I’ll definitely be the top scorer this year.”
