It reminded her of a question a classmate had asked Fifth Sister. That classmate had asked why Fifth Sister always scored the same as she did. At that time, Fifth Sister replied, “That’s because I know which questions Fourth Sister can’t answer. Other than those questions she does not know the answers to, she would have answered everything else correctly.”
Su Xue had not thought much about what Fifth Sister had said. In hindsight, she should have known what Fifth Sister had been trying to say. Indeed, her hubris blinded her to her sister’s capabilities.
It was obvious that Fifth Sister was accommodating her!
“Su Xue, what are you doing here? The exams are about to start. You’ve been assigned to exam hall one. Come on!” Cao Jun waved at Su Xue enthusiastically, exuding a youthful vitality that made him shine like the first rays of dawn.
So vivacious was he that Su Xue could even see the sweat on his brow.
Besides him was Sheng Nian, his polar opposite. Where Cao Jun had a sunny personality, Sheng Nian was cool and reserved. Sheng Nian found it strange that Su Xue did not have Fifth Sister by her side, which caused him to frown.
The two were practically peas in a pod; they were inseparable.
Su Xue had always viewed Cao Jun as that nosy classmate from a well-off family in town. Now, she could not help but feel the need to reassess him in light of her newfound understanding of her younger sister. She did not want to be prejudiced by preconceived notions, which would blind her reality.
Hence, she nodded at Cao Jun and said, “I’m coming.”
Cao Jun felt like a bolt of lightning had struck him. He stood rooted to the spot, staring unseeingly in a fugue of incomprehension. Almost absently, he voiced his doubts to Sheng Nian beside him. “Sheng Nian, do my ears deceive me? Am
I seeing what you do? Is that Su Xue smiling at me?”
“You’re not seeing things.” Sheng Nian sniped unhappily.
“Oh… That’s good.” A fire lit in Cao Jun’s heart as he rushed to Su Xue, taking her school bag from her. “Su Xue, your bag looks amazing! Where’d you buy it?
I’d like to buy one too.”
“My sister made it for me.”
“Was it the sister who came last time?” Since the day Su Xue’s older sister dropped by to deliver bicycles to her sisters, said sister had become a celebrity. Even the teachers gossiped about Su Xue’s older sister when they thought no one was listening.
All who had seen her on that occasion praised Su Xue’s older sister for her exceptional beauty and outstanding temperament.
Su Wen was the subject of envy of teachers and students alike.
“Yes. She was the one who stopped by with our bicycles.”
“Su Xue, your older sister is so nice.” Cao Jun was envious.
“I’m sure your older sister is just as good!” Cao Jun’s sister had married someone from the city, someone powerful.
“She went to look for our homeroom teacher.”
“The exams will start soon. Why is she looking for our form teacher?” “She has something she needs to do.”
“Could you say that again? Did you say you want to take the college entrance exams?” The homeroom teacher of Grade 9, Class 1, stood abruptly, thinking she had misheard. “Fifth Sister, are you out of your mind?”
“I’m not. I’m serious.”
“Then, then…Then why do you want to take the college entrance examinations? You’re only in the third year of junior high school. You haven’t even gone to high school.” Fifth Sister’s homeroom teacher was at her wit’s end. The other teachers in the office peered over their desks curiously.
The invigilators arranged by the county education bureau also looked at the student who had just entered in disbelief.
The office broke out in fevered whispers. Naturally, the topic of their discussions revolved around Fifth Sister’s arrogance.
“Teacher, I think I can take the college entrance examination. I have already memorized all the high school textbooks. I think I can do it. Please give me a chance,” said Fifth Sister stubbornly.
“You, you…!” Fifth Sister’s homeroom teacher was speechless. “Go back to class this instant! Your exams will start soon..
