Chapter 182


    "I just can''t stand your grandfather. Even though Shi Jin is awful, he remains protective of her. Is Shi


    Jin an idiot or something? You were the top humanities schr in the city and scored over 680


    points. If you just helped her a little, it would be such a boon. I am sure she would have no problem


    getting cement in a university. How could she reject our kind intentions!"


    "Perhaps she still doesn''t like me."


    "What gives her the right? I was just worried that if she could not make it into university, your


    grandfather would keep spending money to get her a spot."


    Shi Xuexin thought about Shi Jin''s poor attitude towards her and felt it was fine.


    The worse Shi Jin became, the less she would have the chance of outshining Shi Xuexin.


    ***


    After Wen Yongwei got back to school, she started preparing for her exams. However, Shi Jin got


    into an argument with her teacher after resuming her studies.


    The moment word got out, it was impossible to suppress it.


    Everyone kept talking about how Shi Jin intended on skipping a grade and getting into the third


    grade.


    Wen Yongwei was from the First High School and it had been in directpetition with Second


    High School for years. Each year, they woulde in neck in neck as the top and second high


    schools in the city.


    Even the students were privatelypetitive towards each other.


    To begin with, Second High School had more students making it into elite universitiesst year, so


    First High School was determined to outdo it. So how could they pass up on the opportunity to mock


    them now that the chance was presented to them?


    "First High School has all-rounded straight-A students like Wen Yongwei, but Second High School


    only has strange students. No wonder even their school is called second and not the first!"


    "How could someone who keeps scoring zero even think about skipping a grade and getting


    promoted to third grade? Does she even want to take the college entrance exam? She is clearly


    taking the back door. Has she even paid her way into getting a cement at a university?"

    "Second High School is so unfair. What is the principal doing?"


    "He must have made the test easy for Shi Jin. If Shi Jin manages to pass the test and gets


    promoted to the third grade, I will lodge aint about this!"


    "First High School probably feels threatened by Wen Yongwei from Second High School, so they


    are allowing Shi Jin to get promoted!"


    The test paper was brought over to Shi Jin amid the furor.


    Principal Lu came over with the third year English teacher, Miss Ji.


    Miss Ji was very young and had juste home from studying abroad, so she was very modern.


    She had big wavy hair and was gorgeous.


    She was all praise for Shi Jin, unlike Shi Dawei. The moment she saw Shi Jin, she was impressed


    by her. She swiftly said, "Just take the exam. You can join my ss once you pass."


    She taught a third grade A ss and it couldn''tpare to Shi Jin''s current B grade ss.


    Shi Jin smiled and took the test paper.


    All the test papers were sealed and the exam hall was under surveince.


    Every year, some students from Second High School would apply to skip a grade, so the school


    was very systematic about it.


    After Shi Jin took a seat, she reached her hand out for the paper and started to write on it.


    Yao Jiahong waited outside. Although he found it risky for Shi Jin to skip a grade, he did not object.


    After working with Shi Jin for some time, he was ustomed to trusting every word she said, even


    if they sometimes sounded unbelievable.


    He did not want to ever see the look of disappointment in Shi Jin''s eyes or feel guilty about not


    trusting her.


    The first paper was English and it was scheduled for two hours, but Shi Jinpleted it in just one


    hour.


    Miss Ji looked at Shi Jin as though this genius was already in her ss.


    Principal Lu was startled. "Are you done already?"


    "Uh huh." Shi Jin nodded. "Why don''t I go ahead and do the rest of the subjects earlier?"


    There were a total of four papers. These consisted of English, Chinese, Math, and Science.


    The papers were expected to be taken over two days.


    Principal Lu discussed it with the other teachers and decided to let Shi Jin take them today since it


    was just her taking the test and no other students were involved.


    Shi Jin proceeded to finish the rest of the papers.


    Yao Jiahong waited until 12:00 pm, but Shi Jin did not show up, so he stood up and looked in the


    direction of the exam hall anxiously.


    Since the paper was two hours long, she ought to be out by now. Had something happened to Shi


    Jin?


    He quickly thought about how to handle the situation with a worried look on his face. He was


    determined to keep Shi Jin out of trouble.


    The moment Shi Jin walked out, Yao Jiahong stood up immediately and looked at her happily


    before he started looking worried.


    "Shi Jin, are you hungry? What would you like for lunch? Let''s go have something nice!"


    "Do you have to look so nervous?" Shi Jin looked at him quizzically.


    "Am I?" Yao Jiahong did not feel he was nervous. He was simply trying to take good care of Shi Jin.


    Also, if she failed to do well, she could still try again, so not all was lost.


    Shi Jin stretchedzily before she said, "Let''s go. What do you feel like eating? It''s on me."


    Yao Jiahong nodded. "Yes, we should give ourselves a treat. I have booked a hotel room for you so


    that you can rest after lunch. That way, you will be ready for your Math paper in the afternoon. Oh


    yes. Gu Qinghua sent us some exam tips. Although it might be a little toote, you should have a


    look at them tonight. It beats going in for the exampletely unprepared."


    "I have already finished everything."


    "What?"


    "I said I have already finished all four papers. The teachers are probably marking them as we


    speak."


    Shi Jin went forward as she spoke. "1 will pick up my things from ss in the afternoon."


    Although she had only spent a few days in ss, there was a lot of studying material at her desk, so


    she had to go back for them.


    Yao Jiahong was briefly stunned before he quickly followed behind her.


    Miss Ji pulled out Shi Jin''s English paper.


    She inexplicably trusted Shi Jin''s ability and had a feeling that Shi Jin would definitely do well.


    After quickly going over Shi Jin''s exam paper, she saw that all the answers were neatly written in


    English calligraphy and promptly left a good impression on her.


    She sighed as she quickly went through the answers and marked them with a red pen rapidly.


    "Principal Lu, you promised that if Shi Jin meets the requirements, Shi Jin can join my ss!"


    Principal Lu smiled genially. "Of course, no problem at


    all!


    Shi Jin came back to her desk to pack up before lunch break was over.


    She deliberately picked lunchtime so as not to disturb the students'' studies. However, the moment


    she showed up, the students who were chatting in small groups, or doing homework swiftly raised


    their heads and looked at her.


    The students from the other sses came over to watch. Some people even climbed into the ss


    through the window.
