Famous Among Top Surgeons in the 90s

Chapter 22: 【22】Science Top Scholar 1

Regarding this, Xie Wanying didn’t give it much thought because the fact she knew early on was, “The class leader botched the exam.”

“What did you say? Is that what the class leader told you when he asked you to come, or what he said to you on the phone?” Zhang Wei covered her astonished mouth with her hand, thinking, if the class leader really screwed up the exam, what would the homeroom teacher do.

Monitor Yu was Teacher Liu’s favorite student.

“Teacher Liu, I’m here to get my college entrance examination transcript,” Xie Wanying said. She couldn’t worry about how other students were doing and stretched out her hand to the homeroom teacher.

Looking up and meeting Xie Wanying’s gaze, Teacher Liu felt a tremor of unexplainable guilt inside her.

The homeroom teacher didn’t respond; seeing this, Zhang Wei said, “Teacher Liu, it’s okay, I know Yingying is very strong and can face any reality.”

Her deskmate was very eager to know her college entrance examination scores. Xie Wanying thought about it; in her previous life, it had been the same. Unperturbed, she told Teacher Liu, “Like Zhang Wei said, Teacher Liu, I can accept any score.”

Zhang Wei glanced at her deskmate: You can accept it even if you messed up?

Under everyone’s watch, Teacher Liu had no choice but to take out the transcript pressed under everything else in the drawer, her hand trembling a few times as she reached to pass it over.

The others didn’t know what was going on with Teacher Liu.

Xie Wanying took her college entrance examination transcript directly from the homeroom teacher’s hand, glanced at the score on it, and immediately put it into her pocket and turned to leave.

This score was within her expectations.

The problem was, just now, standing beside her, Zhang Wei and a few teachers who observed her transcript score were all shocked out of their wits.

What score did they just see?

“Teacher Liu, do you actually have someone in your class who scored seven hundred and twenty-one points?” A few teachers crowded around Teacher Liu, nearly grabbing her by the collar and yelling, “Seven hundred and twenty-one points means the top science scholar! Have you lost your mind? Why didn’t you clarify earlier, letting her walk away like that?”

The complaints from her colleagues were accusations that Teacher Liu hoarding this information was akin to depriving them, the other teachers, of the opportunity to curry favor with the top science scholar. As they watched Xie Wanying, the top science scholar, leave the office and instantly vanish from sight, how could anyone catch up?

Teacher Liu herself had not considered congratulating Xie Wanying; how could she possibly let her colleagues step in?

After snapping back to reality, Hu Hao still cared about Zhao Wenzong’s score and followed up with the homeroom teacher, asking, “Teacher Liu, how many points did Zhao Wenzong score?”

Teacher Liu, annoyed by the questioning, slapped the table and roared at Hu Hao, “What business is it of yours how many points he scored!”

“No, Teacher Liu, I’m just concerned for a classmate—”

“Do you really need to know how many points he got? I’ll tell you, he scored more than you, a whole twenty-something points higher!” Teacher Liu bellowed, then collapsed into her chair motionless.

Hu Hao felt as if the sky were falling, recalling how he had mocked Zhao Wenzong before. As for Zhang Wei, who stood by his side, her world had already crashed down.

Xie Wanying, her deskmate, the truck driver’s daughter, whom she and her mother had said would fail to get into college and needed to get married, was now the top science scholar. There was no question of which medical school to attend; with Xie Wanying’s score, she could choose any university she liked.

Zhang Wei’s legs shook uncontrollably.

Xie Wanying, who had left the school with her transcript in hand, hopped on her bike and hurried home to bring the good news to her mother.

At home, Sun Rongfang had been anxious all day. The neighbors were all saying that the college entrance examination results would be released today. She thought about going to the school to inquire about her daughter’s news, but was afraid of her daughter’s potential poor performance and paced like an ant on a hot pan.
