âHe was delayed by his family, which is why heâs in this situation now. He came back from abroad a long time ago and has been looking for an opportunity to join the school again, so I hope your school can give him a chance.â
Principal Fang and Mr. Liu were both people who cherished talents. Facing Qiao Dongliangâs situation, they indeed felt that it was a pity.
He had come to the school many times, and his file was back. The two of them discussed for a while and felt that they could give him a chance.
Principal Fang cleared his throat and said, âHow about this? There are a few exam papers here. The difficulty level is the final exam questions for the first half of the first semester of the third year of high school. If you can get an A grade, weâll let you enter the school. How about that?â
A grade of A means that Qiao Dongliang needed to score 90 points in a 100-point test paper and 135 points in a 150-point test paper. This is considered a very strict requirement.
Qiao Weiyang looked at him.
He immediately said, âOkay, when will I take the exam?â
âLetâs start in the afternoon. There are a total of six exam papers. You can take them over the course of three days. Is that okay?â
âNo problem!â he said loudly.
After walking out of the office, Qiao Weiyang asked, âAre you sure itâs alright?â
âIâm sure! Anyway, itâs a chance. Itâs already very good that theyâre giving me this chance. At most, Iâll just retake my third year of high school! Itâs not a big deal!â
âWith such ambition, you can definitely do it!â Qiao Weiyang said.
âSister, you donât have to accompany me for the next few days. I can do it myself. Iâll tell you when the results are out!â
Qiao Weiyang laughed. âYouâre worried that me being around will pressure you, right? Okay, I wonât drop by. Call me as soon as the results are out! Also, remember to take your meals on time!â
Although Qiao Weiyang did not accompany him, she was still very concerned about his situation. She asked Su Zhuoqian to arrange for a bodyguard to keep an eye on him, afraid that something would happen to him.
For three consecutive days, the bodyguardâs feedback was that Qiao Dongliang was taking the exam steadily. Only then did Qiao Weiyang feel relieved.
On the fourth day, it was time for the results to be announced. However, Qiao Dongliang did not call for a long time.
Qiao Weiyang went to the Xu family first.
Today, only Madam Xu was around. She had only taken medicine for a few days, but her mental state seemed to have recovered very well.
Seeing Qiao Weiyang, she couldnât hide her smile. âWeiyang, my head hasnât been dizzy for the past few days. Also, my previous gynecological illness has improved a lot.â
âThatâs good.â Qiao Weiyang continued to take her pulse. âIt has indeed improved. You just need to recuperate well. You can continue to take the medicine from last time. The dosage is the same. Alsoâ¦â
Qiao Weiyang gave her the medicine she had brought. âYou can just take it with this.â
âOkay, thank you, Weiyang,â Madam Xu said. âItâs rare for you to come over today. Have lunch with me. Old Xu isnât around today either. Do you want to stay and accompany me?â
Qiao Weiyang thought that Qiao Dongliangâs results would only be released in the afternoon, so she agreed. âThank you.â
Madam Xu smiled and said, âIâll get the butler to arrange it.â
âThereâs no need to prepare too much. Itâll be a waste if the two of us canât finish it.â
Madam Xu said, âI didnât expect a big star like you to be so frugal.â
âWe should only use what we need to; anything extra is a waste.â
Seeing the faint worry on Madam Xuâs face, Qiao Weiyang couldnât help but ask, âMadam Xu, for the sake of treating your illness, may I ask if thereâs anything else troubling you?â
âAh, something thatâs troubling me?â Madam Xu said. âNo, thereâ nothing else.â
âBut when I took your pulse, I realized that youâre a little depressed. If you donât get rid of this problem, youâll have to take more medicine. Medicine is poisonous in the long-term. Actually, itâs better to not take medicine to sort out some illnesses. Of course, this is your privacy. You donât have to tell me about it.â
Madam Xu looked at Qiao Weiyang and suddenly smiled. âHanzhi used to say that your medical skills were brilliant and that you spent a lot of time on medicine, but I was still skeptical. Now that I think about it, heâs right. Your medical skills are indeed better than others.â
âMadam Xu, you flatter me.â
âCan you accompany me to my room?â Madam Xu asked.
âOkay.â
Qiao Weiyang followed Madam Xu upstairs and entered her room.
The huge room was very empty even with the European-style furniture.
It could be seen that this room was built from two rooms. It was much bigger than the master bedroom of ordinary villas.
There were wedding photos of Madam Xu and Xu Jingye hanging on the wall. There was also a small photo beside them.
âPreviously, I was pregnant and helping my husband collect and buy goods in the countryside. At that time, I was in a hospital in a township. Sigh, the root cause of my illness came from my post-partum recovery. But itâs also becauseâ¦n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
I lost my child less than a month after giving birth.â
At this point, Madam Xuâs eyes were wet, and her voice was choked and dry.
Qiao Weiyang handed her the tissue and finally understood why there was always a lingering sadness on Madam Xu.
âIâm sorry, Madam Xu. I asked you about something sad,â Qiao Weiyang said softly. Initially, she had heard from Song Hanzhi that Young Master Xu was now an outstanding talent and the company he ran was doing well. She never thought thereâd be a twist in the story.
She didnât expect to be receive such an answer.
Madam Xu wiped her tears and said, âSigh, itâs all my fault. At that time, it was because I wasnât in good health and there was no one at home to take care of the child, so I took the child to the hospital in the township myself. I didnât expect that the child would disappear before I could finish my own check-up. Because of this, Iâve been sad for many years. Not only did my husband not blame me, but he even comforted me. Iâ¦
âDonât be sad, Madam Xu. Young Master Xu is outstanding now. You have someone to rely on.â
Madam Xu cried and nodded. She picked up the photo on the table and handed it to Qiao Weiyang, still immersed in her emotions. âLook, isnât my son cute? I spent a lot of time and energy looking for him, but I still couldnât find him.â Qiao Weiyang looked at the photo and felt that the person looked familiar.
It was as if she had seen this photo somewhere before.
However, many newly born babies looked very similar. It was normal for many people not to be able to distinguish their features.
Qiao Weiyang flipped through the photos and looked at them carefully. She realized that there was a red mole on the childâs ear. This was rare.
She thought for a moment.
Seeing that she was in a daze, Madam Xu immediately said, âWeiyang, youâre a doctor and an artiste. You must have seen a lot of people.. If you see anyone who looks like my child, you must help me tell me, okay?â
