Chapter 558: National College Entrance Exam
Just stepping into the dining hall, a unique aroma hit their noses, tantalizing their taste buds and making them all eager to eat.
“Wow, it smells so good.”
“Really smells good.”
“What dishes are being cooked, why do they smell so fantastic?”
“Ah, I am going to eat three big bowls of rice tonight.”
After entering the dining hall, everyone looked at the dishes laid out on the table: braised pork trotters, boiled fish slices, sweet and sour ribs, stir-fried vegetables, mountain-water tofu, along with a mountain delicacy chicken soup.
It smelled delicious, and tasted even better when eaten, Mengyu was pleasantly surprised: Xiao Tao actually cooked such delicious food, even better than what’s available in restaurants.
“Xiao Tao, from now on, you will be in charge of cooking for our family,” Mengyu announced.
In the past two months, Gu Dongxing and Cheng Jiuhe had both called, but they haven’t visited. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to come, but Mengyu didn’t allow them.
Although Mengyu herself wasn’t afraid of exams, the other five needed a quiet environment to revise.
Time flew by quickly, and the day of the National College Entrance Exam on July 8th finally arrived.
Their examination location was not their school, but a certain middle school. When the candidates entered the exam venue, it wasn’t like future times when parents accompanied their children, but still, many parents came to send off their children.
Shuiyu’s Mom and Huilan’s Dad also came to motivate their daughters.
Seeing parents encouraging their children, Mengyu felt a mix of envy, jealousy, and resentment.
Seeing Mengyu and her group entering the exam venue, Director Chen sneered internally.
Every teacher would highlight key points for the exam, and only students who revised at the school would receive these key insights from teachers, naturally making the exam easier for them.
After all, this was the fifth year since the resumption of the National College Entrance Exam, and the teachers were quite experienced in setting the exam focus.
The study group formed by Jiang Mengyu, consisting entirely of students without teachers to highlight key points, would definitely find it difficult to achieve good results.
She was ready; she was just waiting for their exam results to come out and then she would report Principal Nian to the education bureau.
Perhaps, by then, he would not be the principal, and she could advance further.
With thirty minutes left before the exam, Mengyu headed to her exam venue. Entering the venue half an hour early was allowed.
She had visited the examination location yesterday afternoon; although she didn’t actually need to, the other members of her study group did.
Mengyu’s group was split up into different exam venues, so after entering the school, they dispersed.
Just as Mengyu was heading to her own exam room, she suddenly saw a jeep driving up to the school gate.
She scanned with her Divine Sense and saw Gu Dongxing hurriedly opening the car door and getting out, looking around.
Mengyu was excited, just now she was envious that her classmates had parents to send them off, and she did not—yet unexpectedly, now she had someone too. She quickly walked back, “I’m here!”
As soon as Gu Dongxing saw Mengyu, the anxiety on his face disappeared, and he ran towards her, grabbing her hand for a moment, “I’m here to cheer you on, wish you success!”
Mengyu smiled and nodded: “I will definitely succeed! I want to be the top scorer!”
Gu Dongxing, excited, exclaimed, “Good!” but couldn’t say anything else.
As time was running out, Mengyu could only go on. She looked back at Gu Dongxing while walking towards her own exam venue.
Before reaching her exam room, suddenly, a boy rushed towards her forcefully.
