Another invigilator took a glance at the question and smiled, âTeacher Liu, Ye Jian has won the gold medal in the World Olympics competition. Your question isnât too difficult for her to solve. However, I agree with you. The headmaster of First City High is indeed crazy.â
Ye Jian had become the center of attention of the entire examination hall. Not only did the teachers deliberately pay attention to her, but the teacher supervisors of other schools had also come over to check on her from time to time. Ye Jianâs name had been the name that was mentioned the most by teachers for many years!
Genius, a talent given by God. Ye Jian had risen up swiftly like a sharp sword, causing tremors across the entire Anyang City!
Two days later, all candidatesâ test papers were sealed and sent to the city for review.
Ye Zifan, who had been waiting for the news, received a call from Old Hu in the afternoon. He smiled widely as he answered the phone. However, when he heard the first sentence, âUnable to do itâ, his expression changed drastically. He questioned coldly, âUnable to do it? Old Hu, isnât this what you have been doing all this time?â
âOld Ye, donât you think that youâre causing a problem to me if you want me to help you to invalidate Ye Jianâs exam paper? Her paper is the main focus out of this entire batch of papers. They donât even go through us. The papers are personally sent to the city, by two members assigned by the military, as well as an invigilating teacher and a notary, to be marked.
You dare to raise your voice at me, but Iâm not even mad at you! If I hadnât realized that Ye Jianâs name seemed familiar and looked her up, I would have been called up by the Commission for Discipline Inspection at this moment!â
These few words sounded loud and frightening like thunder, scaring Ye Zifan, âWhat?! The troops personally escorted the papers to the province for review? What is this, Old Hu? Please calm down and explain this to me clearly.â
âExplain this to you clearly? I also want to know whatâs going on. Last year, this candidate was accepted by First City High. In the end, she tore up the notice and directly took a break from school for a year. Old Ye, we have been friends for many years. Iâm not going to talk more about last yearâs incident.â
âBut this year, Iâll pretend that you didnât give me a call. And that I donât know anything. Weâll just pretend as if nothing happened. Hereâs my advice to you, stop plotting schemes! You better watch out for yourself.â
If it wasnât for the fact that they had been friends for many years, he wouldnât have reminded him.
Ye Zifan was unaware that the phone had been hung up or that he had been blankly listening to the beeping phone for a long time. He sat there for quite a while, stunned, before slowly putting the phone down.
Initially, he had thought the plot towards Ye Jian was just a small matter. Now, it seemed that she wasnât someone he could mess with!
Even the troops were present ⦠Whoâs helping Ye Jian?! Who is it?!
Is it someone that I canât offend?
Ye Zifan was in deep thought; there were many things that he didnât understand, but one thing was for sure: Ye Jianâs future wasnât something he could easily interfere with!
Very well then, who else could it be? Besides Uncle Gen, who was helping Ye Jian?
Ye Zifan sat quietly in the office for a while. Then, looking at the time, he got up and left the office.
Ye Jian didnât know that her test paper was sent to the capital before she even left school. She was talking and laughing with her classmates from the same examination hall as they walked out of the school. It was then she felt a cold gaze eyeing her.
She looked up slightly. Then, her eyes narrowed as she glanced towards the direction of the cold gaze. She spotted the gloomy Ye Zifan standing in the shade of the trees.
Seeing her coming toward him all of a sudden, he was stunned for a moment. But he quickly regained his indifferent expression and walked over stony-faced.
