Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The next day, Ye Tianxin could sense that sothing odd about the way her classmates looked at her when she entered the classroom. It was as if there was sothing on her face.
The mont she sat down on her seat, a female classmate walked up to her and whispered, “Ye Tianxin, I’m sorry for what I did yesterday. I shouldn’t have said those things about you.”
Ye Tianxin was surprised. She didn’t respond. She thought it was strange of her classmate to do that.
‘Why would she apologize to ?’ she wondered.
“Did sothing happen yesterday?” Ye Tianxin asked, and her classmate blushed.
“In the ladies’ washroom...,” her classmate muttered.
“Oh, you an that? I don’t hold grudges. I choose to focus on important things,” Ye Tianxin casually replied.
Her classmate covered her face with her hands and then walked away. She felt embarrassed.
Ye Tianxin then prepared her pen and paper for the exam. She made sure that everything was ready.
As it was a mock exam, it would be conducted as if it was a formal college entrance examination.
The senior students were directed to their respective classrooms, and two supervisors were assigned to each classroom.
The supervisors were not the horoom teachers for the senior students, but teachers transferred from middle and elentary schools in town.
Ye Tianxin had already received her number yesterday when class was over. When she realized that it was almost ti for the exams, she made her way to the third classroom for sophomores, which she had been assigned to.
Ye Tianxin’s seat was situated close to the window, and there was a sycamore tree outside that nearly blocked the entire window. Whenever the wind blew, the leaves would make a rustling sound.
On the first day, she would sit for the language exams in the morning, followed by math in the afternoon. The following day, she would sit for her English exams in the morning, followed by physics and chemistry in the afternoon.
When Ye Tianxin was in the capital, she had been tutored by Li Qingcang, who was a straight-A student. She learned that she should always start with the easiest question, and she was quick in solving the problems.
When she had completed the questions and checked her answers once more, certain that there were no errors in her responses, she submitted her paper.
After Ye Tianxin finished her exams, she proceeded to the field where her classmates were gathered to check their answers.
“Tianxin, how was the exam?” Li Xiaohui asked nervously. “I think I went off-topic for my written composition,” she groaned.
Di Shanshi remarked, “You better watch out then. The weight of the written composition is high.”
Li Xiaohui sat down on the ground and covered her face with a language textbook as she lanted, “I don’t know what’s wrong with . I was so nervous, and my palms were sweating badly.”
Li Xiaohui’s grades had always been average.
“How about you? How do you think you fared in the exams?” she asked Ye Tianxin.
Ye Tianxin replied, “I find it manageable. It wasn’t easy, but not that difficult if you studied.”
In fact, Ye Tianxin felt that she had done pretty well as she had attempted to answer many questions from previous tests and thus found the questions in the mock examinations easy.
“That’s great then. You have no idea how worried I was for you.” Li Xiaohui moved closer to Ye Tianxin and remarked, “Ye Youran seed so relaxed and proud when she ca out of the classroom just now. It’s almost as if she had it in the bag.”
“Let’s not bother about her. We should study for the math exam in the afternoon,” Ye Tianxin reminded.
Li Xiaohui looked even more depressed at the ntion of this and groaned, “That’s even worse. I can’t do math!”
To rub salt into her wound, Di Shanshi chid in, “You shouldn’t have chosen the science stream.”
“But I’ll have to morize things if I were to study liberal arts. My mory is as good as a goldfish’s. It only lasts for three seconds! I’m so bad at rembering things,” she lanted.
Li Xiaohui knew the critical role of the college entrance examination in determining one’s fate. She was so upset that she wanted to cry.
But she knew that this was the best that she could do and that it would be very difficult for her to achieve good grades.
“Tianxin, do you think I should try to apply in a film school, too?” she asked.
