They couldn't help but wonder if they had answered incorrectly.
Or perhaps you did something wrong that made these two people angry?
Because of this, they stared at their answer sheets, looking at them again and again, checking them over and over, and correcting several mistakes.
Even after they handed in their papers, they still felt uneasy.
He would glance at Xia Anyan and Liu Wangchun every now and then, trying to glean something from their faces, but in the end he saw nothing.
"Sister Liu, I feel like those two people are scared by us."
Xia Anyan glanced at the two people over there, looking somewhat conflicted.
Liu Wangchun looked over and saw the two people looking away in fear.
This... seems like they really were scared.
"Sister Liu, do you think those two people might be looking at us like that because they think we're targeting them and they're worried about being targeted?"
It has to be said, Xia Anyan is right.
What she was thinking was exactly what those two people were worried about.
It was already quite an achievement for them to participate in the assessment, and they were hoping to get a good ranking in this assessment.
From the start of the exam until now, Xia Anyan and Liu Wangchun have been staring at them without saying a word or making any extra movements; they've just been watching.
At first, they thought they had made a mistake on the question and the two people wanted to help them correct it.
But later, even after they checked their answers many times and were sure they had answered perfectly, the two of them still probably kept glancing in their direction.
If I'm not mistaken, they probably won't be accepted this time.
The two lowered their heads, both somewhat disappointed.
"You two, come here." Liu Wangchun beckoned to the two men.
Although the two were puzzled, they exchanged a glance and then walked towards Liu Wangchun together.
"Ayan, you take the others out first," Liu Wangchun instructed Xia Anyan. The two exchanged a glance and understood each other's meaning.
Xia Anyan nodded and led the others away first, while the two left behind stayed with Liu Wangchun alone.
Once outside, the people whispered amongst themselves, seemingly unable to understand why those two had been left alone.
Some people even boldly set their sights on Xia Anyan.
"Hello comrade, my surname is Li. My father works at the supply and marketing cooperative..."
"Hello comrade, my surname is..."
One after another, people came up to greet him and introduced themselves.
Their only goal was to get close to Xia Anyan and let her know what benefits she could gain from helping them.
If Xia Anyan were truly an ordinary person, she might actually be attracted by the conditions offered by these people.
But unfortunately, she is not an ordinary person.
Moreover, she was Liu Wangchun's woman.
Liu Wangchun can decide who stays and whoever he wants to stay.
I don't want anyone to stay, even if their father is the King of Heaven.
"Please be patient, everyone. Minister Liu is already grading the papers, and we believe we will have the results soon."
"As for the two comrades who were left inside, I don't know exactly what happened, but I'm sure Minister Liu will give everyone an explanation."
Just after Xia Anyan finished speaking, Liu Wangchun called her in.
She smiled at everyone, then turned and went back.
Liu Wangchun handed the few papers he had just looked at to Xia Anyan: "Ayan, take a look at these."
Liu Wangchun had a few more items on hand, but she had carelessly tossed them aside, clearly indicating her dissatisfaction.
Although the scores of the items Xia Anyan held weren't very high, the fact that Liu Wangchun had chosen them individually meant that they must have some special abilities.
"What have you two decided?" Liu Wangchun looked up again at the two people standing in front of him.
The two men had their lips tightly pressed together, their hands trembling in front of them, whether from nervousness or something else, it was hard to tell.
Xia Anyan simply shook her head and smiled, showing no intention of disturbing her. All her attention was now focused on the answer sheets.
"You don't need to worry about what I'll do to you. I'm keeping you here now because you answered the questions perfectly, and also because you're smart and hardworking. I believe you'll be able to endure hardship in your future work."
“I know you two don’t have any connections, and keeping you here is a good thing for me, so you don’t need to worry about what I might do to you.”
Liu Wangchun kindly explained to them.
The two breathed a sigh of relief and waved their hands repeatedly, saying, "No, no, no, I'm not worried about what you might do to me."
"Yes, I'm not worried."
Liu Wangchun raised an eyebrow: "Since that's not what you're worried about, what are you still hesitating about?"
"You all came here to take the exam because you want to get good grades and get into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, right?"
"I've already given you the spots, so why are you still hesitating?"
The two hesitated, as if they wanted to say something but then stopped.
Xia Anyan glanced at Liu Wangchun and said, "Are you worried that it will be difficult to explain to the outside world later?"
"You feel that you have no powerful backers, yet you were chosen by Minister Liu to stay, while some of those people are going to be eliminated. Are you worried that you will be targeted by them?"
What Xia Anyan said is the truth, even if the two people didn't nod or admit it, the fact remains.
Liu Wangchun's expression was rather unpleasant.
She knew those people would create a mess, but she didn't expect that someone who came to take the exam would still be worried about these things.
“I will post your answers on the bulletin board outside, so everyone can see them. Everyone knows whether your answers were good or bad. If they are shameless enough to come to you privately and say or do anything, I will naturally hold them accountable.”
"What you need to consider now is to answer the question I asked earlier. Just tell me if you want to stay and serve me."
"Yes, I do want to."
"Minister Liu, I'd like to too."
Both of them were very excited.
As soon as Liu Wangchun finished speaking, he eagerly expressed his own thoughts.
They were indeed very worried at first, but since Liu Wangchun had already made a guarantee, what were they afraid of?
Liu Wangchun was very happy and in a good mood.
She glanced at Xia Anyan beside her, and the two smiled at each other.
"Alright, you can go out now. No matter who asks you later, don't say anything. Leave the rest to me."
