Ding Huizhu couldn't help but turn around and quietly ask the two people who had just been talking, "What's going on? Why isn't anyone helping that old lady?"
“How can I help? They say it’s a family matter! Oh, you don’t know, do you? That’s Liu’s ex-mother-in-law. His ex-wife is dead, and he had another wife before that, who is also dead.” The man looked at Ding Huizhu with pity in his eyes.
The person next to me muttered a complaint: "Why did you tell her so much?"
The man said, "Sigh, we'll save whoever we can. We can't just watch people jump into the fire."
Security arrived quickly; after all, Liu was their superior, and they soon escorted the old lady away.
Ding Huizhu also turned around and left, wanting to help the old lady.
Ding Ruoxu watched as Ding Huizhu left just like that, feeling that he hadn't hit her hard enough and hadn't even woken her up.
He stood up and grabbed Ding Huizhu, "Come back, what are you doing! It's your good fortune that Director Liu has taken a liking to you..."
"Do you want this blessing?" Ding Huizhu retorted directly.
Ding Ruoxu was both shocked and furious. Just as he was about to slap Liu Zhe again, several policemen rushed over: "Who is Liu Zhe? We have new evidence that you are suspected of intentional homicide. Please come with us!"
Liu's expression changed drastically. This matter had been settled long ago, so why was it causing another stir?
However, no matter how much he tried to stall for time, the officers still took him away.
The old woman cried out, "Heaven has eyes!"
The farce ended abruptly, and Ding Huizhu then realized that cold sweat had seeped out on the back of her neck.
She almost jumped into the fire and married a habitual murderer.
Meanwhile, the results of the TCM exam were released. Ding Huizhu felt a pang of anxiety and, disregarding everything else, turned to look at Xie Ziyuan's score.
Those contestants who failed to advance have already left the competition, but Xie Ziyuan is still inside, which means she is making good progress and will definitely win the championship this time.
However, she didn't hear Xie Ziyuan's name until the top three results were announced. Instead, she unexpectedly heard Xie Li's name.
Xie Li actually won first place!
How is this possible?!
Ding Huizhu felt that everything was unreal. She looked blankly toward Grandpa Xie, who was now completely surrounded by people offering their congratulations.
In my ears, I could hear the envious voices of others.
"I heard she's only eighteen, not even nineteen yet!"
"His academic performance is also excellent. He was the top scorer in the national college entrance examination this year, scoring an unprecedented 750 points. How does his brain work?"
"The parents must be overjoyed. If my child could get even one of these, I would be laughing in my sleep every day."
Ding Huizhu felt empty inside, as if she hadn't thought of anything, yet also as if she had thought of a lot.
Ding Ruoxu's furious voice brought her back to her senses: "Impossible! There's something wrong with the results of this major exam! Yes! Xie Li definitely cheated! How could she possibly win first place? First place should have been Ziyuan's!"
Regardless of other factors, the fact that Xie Ziyuan has been inside and hasn't come out yet is completely illogical.
Given Xie Ziyuan's level, even if she wasn't first, she would definitely be in the top three. How could she not even have any results?
Ding Huizhu and Ding Ruoxu rushed over to the organizer, Baicaotang, to demand an explanation.
The manager of Baicaotang came out to greet them. His face was ashen. He had previously thought highly of Xie Ziyuan and had even recommended her highly. But what happened?
"Ding Ziyuan violated regulations by using prohibited drugs during the assessment and the furnace exploded on the spot due to improper operation. What more explanation do you want?" The manager slammed his hand on the table, clearly furious. "A furnace exploding is a mistake only a novice would make!"
