Chapter Sixty: It's over, it's all over.
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes immediately fell on Zhou Yanzhe.
Zhou Yanzhe pursed his lips, and his expression unconsciously became shy.
But this shows that I've already been admitted to Beijing University of Science and Technology, so why are people from Peking University looking for me?
Could it be that he wants to personally take me back from USTB?
Zhou Yanzhe's heart was pounding with anxiety.
Holy crap, is this guy really that good? Can anyone tell me how good he is at math?
[I know the person upstairs; he's from our school and is almost always in the top three of his grade, rarely scoring below 650. I don't know why he only got 640 on the college entrance exam.]
[I must say, he's kind of handsome.]
[My god, this isn't just handsome, this guy is practically a cold, aloof academic genius in a novel!]
Soon, news about Zhou Yanzhe also became a trending topic.
[#The aloof and brilliant student in novels.]
[#KyotoUniversityPersonallyVisitedThemselvesToLookForThem.]
Entertainment reporters who have been following Weibo news also noticed it.
They immediately adjusted the camera's position, aiming it at the two professors from Peking University.
Then, mustering his courage, he shouted it out.
"Are you here to see Zhou Yanzhe?"
The two professors from Peking University looked around but couldn't find the person they wanted to see. They were now in a state of bewilderment, having drawn their swords and looked around in confusion.
Upon hearing the entertainment reporter's words, he instinctively asked, "What? Who is Zhou Yanze?"
Everyone remained silent, no one answered him, but they subconsciously looked at Zhou Yanzhe.
Lin Ling noticed everyone's gaze and followed it.
They happened to meet eyes.
Zhou Yanzhe's eyes held a complex mix of emotions, a mixture of anticipation, nervousness, and fear.
Lin Ling was taken aback, then subconsciously shook her head.
"It's not him, we're here to see Tan Zhixu."
Only Zhou Yanzhe's smile froze upon hearing the name.
Why is it Tan Zhixu again? Why him of all times?!
Zhou Yanzhe took a deep breath, his fingertips digging deep into his palm, yet he seemed to feel no pain.
The admissions officers didn't understand why they thought they were there to see Zhou Yanzhe.
Pointing to the large screen in front of him, he said, "Don't we already have the scores and admission results? 645, Beijing University of Science and Technology, what does this have to do with Peking University?"
"You've already been accepted by USTB."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire banquet hall fell silent.
The group looked at each other, unsure of what to say.
But one reporter immediately realized: "You mean the information above is all correct?!"
These words were like a blow to the head, instantly sobering everyone present up.
He stared intently at the two professors from Peking University.
The admissions officers blinked, not understanding why they were reacting so strongly.
"Of course there's no mistake, isn't it? One wrote 645 and the other wrote 0 points?"
"Is it possible that the score is zero because the score is masked?" someone asked tentatively.
The admissions officer waved his hand and explained with a smile, "How could that be? If it were really blocked, our rankings here would also be blocked, and then the application status would be displayed, showing which student was admitted..."
Wu Qingqing could almost hear what the teacher was trying to say, and a sudden panic surged into her heart.
She took a step forward.
She wanted to say, "No, there must be something wrong! Let's check again; it'll definitely be different!"
Before she could even speak, Lin Ling's phone rang.
The admissions officers instinctively fell silent, waiting for Lin Ling to finish speaking.
Lin Ling answered the phone.
For some unknown reason, Lin Ling's expression instantly became excited!
"What?! It's not the 27th floor, it's the 28th floor?"
"Okay, okay! We're coming right now! You absolutely have to help me keep them here!!"
After hanging up the phone, Lin Ling happily grabbed the arm of the admissions officer and was about to leave.
"Teacher Li, let's go quickly! They said the person is upstairs!"
Everyone watched as the two left.
A silence began to spread, and after an unknown amount of time, a faint voice finally broke through the crowd.
"The 28th floor seems to be where Xu's and Osso held their press conference."
Everyone was struck dumb.
"I'm convinced, I should have gone."
"Me too. I had to turn down the one above and let my colleague go before I came here."
"Oh no, it looks like my Toutiao account is going to disappear..."
Everyone was disheartened, frustrated by the impending loss of their performance.
But there was only one person.
Lu Ran's eyes darted around; she was no different from these idiots.
Isn't it a huge gimmick that the top scorer in the college entrance examination actually scored zero?
Although it's not as positive as the one upstairs, its influence is definitely not small.
The thought of handing over the chance to go upstairs to Gu Xing made her grit her teeth in anger.
There's nothing we can do but try to salvage the situation.
Lu Ran stepped forward with the microphone.
"Ms. Wu, I'd like to interview you. Did you receive the wrong answers? Why did you estimate a score of 680 but actually receive zero?"
Wu Qingqing's face turned pale, and she subconsciously took a step back.
Upon hearing this, the others raised their heads, exchanged glances, and then tacitly followed suit.
They pointed the Italian cannon at the people on the stage.
"Ms. Wu! Ms. Wu, could you please explain why this is happening?"
"Did you skip the exam? Even if you stomped on the answer sheet, you shouldn't get a zero, right?"
"As far as we know, Yuncheng's undergraduate enrollment rate is as high as 98%. What are your thoughts on this 0 score?"
"Miss Qingqing, what are your plans after getting a zero on the college entrance exam? Will you choose to retake it?"
The reporters' questions were increasingly sharp.
Wu Qingqing kept backing away, her face looking lost and dejected, shaking her head repeatedly.
He kept repeating, "No, it wasn't me, I didn't. It wasn't me who got zero points."
Seeing Wu Qingqing's appearance, the reporter did not let her off the hook, but neither did he let go of Shen Yanxin, who stood aside with a cold face.
"I heard that today is your family recognition banquet. I would like to ask Madam Shen, are you still going to acknowledge this family?"
When asked this question, Shen Yanxin, who was already prepared, showed a perfectly appropriate look of sorrow on her face.
He stepped forward and slapped Wu Qingqing hard across the face.
Everyone was stunned.
Then, Shen Yanxin said to Wu Qingqing with a pained expression.
"Qingqing, we have been supporting you since you were a child. In order to help you study better, we even brought you to Yuncheng."
"Is this how you repay us with a zero score?"
Shen Yanxin seemed unable to bear it, and her eyes began to redden as she spoke.
Wu Qingqing shook her head blankly, looked at Shen Yanxin, and grabbed Shen Yanxin's sleeve with her hand.
"No, godmother, no..."
Upon hearing this familiar address, Shen Yanxin forcefully shook off Wu Qingqing's hand and interrupted loudly, feeling guilty.
"Enough! Stop making excuses. Since you're not studying properly in Yuncheng, you might as well go back to town!"
"It seems Yuncheng isn't a suitable place for you to live!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Qingqing's heart sank, and only one thought remained in her mind.
No! She absolutely cannot send it back!
That godforsaken place is no place for humans to live!
But after Wu Qingqing thought about it, she suddenly realized with despair that...
She seemed to have no reason to stay at all...
She had always done whatever Shen Yanxin wanted, and had no say in the matter at all...
Wu Qingqing let her arms fall limply.
It's over, it's all over.
Seeing this scene, the reporters felt embarrassed to go up and ask any more questions.
It's unclear who was the first to notice the anomaly.
"Holy crap!! Look at the trending topics!!"
