After a moment, Dong Jingzhang withdrew his gaze, casually stuffed the bank card in his hand into his pocket, and said indifferently, "I appreciate your kindness. Don't worry, I definitely won't make things difficult for your cousin in the upcoming exams."
Qin Yanshu was stunned.
I never expected the plot to develop this way.
She's not some saintly white lotus; given the grudge between them, how could she possibly apologize for Qin Sheng?
The reason she staged this whole thing was because she had heard that this Teacher Dong Jingzhang had a very volatile temper, yet was also extremely upright and incorruptible.
What I can't stand the most is when others do things behind the scenes, such as bribery.
She's just here to help Qin Sheng attract hatred.
The best course of action would be to thoroughly enrage Dong Jingzhang, causing him to kick Qin Sheng out of the examination hall in a fit of rage, forcing her to finish the exam and return to Ancheng. That way, there wouldn't be so much trouble.
She wouldn't feel uneasy or uncomfortable whenever she saw her.
She had a good plan, but things quickly spiraled out of her control.
Qin Yanshu was stunned, and subconsciously called out, "Teacher Dong, you..."
Dong Jingzhang frowned: "Is there anything else?"
Qin Yanshu came to her senses and quickly shook her head, saying, "It's okay, it's okay."
But I felt incredibly frustrated.
Dong Jingzhang nodded and said, "If there's nothing else, you can go now. I have some things to take care of at the association. Don't worry, since I've taken the money, I will definitely keep my promise to you."
Qin Yanshu: "..."
Dong Jingzhang left, taking the bank card Qin Yanshu had given him.
As he walked, he pondered what gift he should prepare to apologize to his idol.
Well, bank cards are actually quite good.
If that doesn't work, he can just get some more bank cards and give them to the big boss together.
Qin Yanshu was unaware that Dong Jingzhang was already planning to give her bank card to Qin Sheng. If she had known, she would probably have been so angry that she would have a heart attack.
Then, when Qin Sheng entered exam room number 18 again the next day and sat down in her seat, she found a small greeting card on her desk.
It's a pink card, folded in half.
It also has an adorable Peppa Pig printed on it.
Qin Sheng paused for a moment, then reached out and opened the card.
With two soft thuds, two brand-new bank cards landed on the table, gleaming with the light of money.
Qin Sheng: "..."
The boy next to him, who had also just arrived at the exam hall, thought: "..."
Qin Sheng turned her head and looked at the boy: "Want me to help you cheat?"
Upon seeing the pink card, she sensed something was amiss: "Are they lusting after my beauty?"
She shook her head and said expressionlessly, "That won't work, I have a boyfriend."
Boy: "..."
After a long pause, he lowered his voice and said, "I didn't put it there."
Qin Sheng: "...Oh."
The big shot remained incredibly calm, tucking the bank card back into the greeting card while scanning the exam room, finally stopping on Dong Jingzhang, whose eyes were clearly filled with tears.
Qin Sheng: "?"
Did they take the wrong medicine?
Dong Jingzhang did not.
He made a gesture of kneeling and begging for mercy with his fingers, and continued to look at Qin Sheng with tears in his eyes.
That guilty look in Qin Sheng's eyes, like an unfilial son looking at his own father, made a string of "..." flash across Qin Sheng's forehead once again.
Finally, he calmly put the greeting card and bank card into his pocket.
Well, as long as you don't want to copy her answers or are attracted to her beauty, there's no reason not to accept money that's offered to you.
When Dong Jingzhang saw it, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense all day, slowly settled down.
It's good that they're willing to accept it.
This must mean that the boss has forgiven him, right?
Qin Sheng didn't think that much about it.
After receiving the money, he ignored the strange looks the boy next to him kept giving him and lay down to wait for the exam.
He was probably in a good mood because he received the money.
It's also possible that she did this because Dong Jingzhang, the proctor, had given her money.
Qin Sheng woke up a minute before the reminder sounded ten minutes before the end of the exam.
Therefore, after filling in all 600 multiple-choice questions, there was still one minute left.
She then wrote twenty more fill-in-the-blank questions.
Seeing Dong Jingzhang collecting the exam papers, he was overjoyed and almost shed tears of emotion.
It's still a solid 620 points.
This time, the elimination rate is much lower than the nearly 80% of the last time, only about 50%.
Even so, only a little over two hundred people advanced to the second round.
I estimate that it will take another four or five rounds to determine the top ten and establish their rankings.
Pei Ling's foundation was indeed solid, and she had been taught by Qin Sheng since childhood. Therefore, she overcame all obstacles and even managed to maintain a score of 612 points in the sixth round, successfully squeezing into the sixth round. In this round, only seventeen people remained.
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the rankings should be determined in the next round.
Feng Yuan was slightly weaker, but he wasn't eliminated until the fourth round.
Although I didn't make it to the finals and get into the top ten, and didn't get the bonus from my college entrance exam score, this competition was still a great experience.
With this experience, he will surely be able to stay calm and win steadily in future exams, no matter how difficult the questions may be.
Even Wen Muyun, who was leading the team, did not expect that his three students could achieve such results.
When she received her results from the fifth round, she felt like she was in a dream and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time.
But within minutes, she realized what was happening, and her gentle brows furrowed slightly.
Qin Sheng noticed and looked up at her, asking, "What's wrong?"
Wen Muyun looked back at her, and after a while, asked seriously, "I've noticed that your grades are always just barely passing. Is that a coincidence or because you weren't giving it your all?"
Qin Sheng: "...I haven't finished writing it."
Wen Muyun found out.
I couldn't help but press my temples.
Before Qin Sheng could ask again, he handed her the newly received document, his brow furrowing even more: "This document was just issued yesterday after the fifth round of exams. Take a look at it first."
Qin Sheng reached out and took it.
This document is not as complicated as the last one; it mainly covers two points.
One point is that the difficulty of the next round, the sixth round of exams, will be significantly increased. We hope that candidates will be mentally prepared and make preparations in advance.
The second point is that the method for determining the final ranking has been adjusted.
The original ranking method was to look at the last round and rank the candidates based on their scores in that round, ignoring the previous five rounds.
However, the academic association now says that this approach is biased and has too little tolerance for chance.
Therefore, a new method for calculating rankings was proposed.
In the first five rounds, the score in each round accounted for 3%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 17% respectively, while in the last round it was reduced from 100% to 50%.
This scoring method is indeed fairer, but because it was a last-minute decision, it is extremely unfair to candidates like Qin Sheng who conserved their strength in the previous rounds.
To be honest, Wen Muyun still doesn't know where Qin Sheng's bottom line is, so she doesn't know if she still has any hope of winning first place after changing the rules like this.
