Lanting Apartment, H City.
Shi Miao was calmly lounging on the sofa playing on her phone, as if the zero score she found out wasn't hers at all.
"Damn, it's already afternoon, why hasn't it refreshed yet?" Ji Sinian rested his chin on his hand, staring intently at the computer screen.
"Sister Miao, why are you acting like nothing's wrong?" He scratched his head in frustration, clicked the mouse, and refreshed the results page again.
Upon hearing this, Shi Miao glanced at him lazily, stretched out her legs, and shifted to a more comfortable sitting position. "Tsk, what's the use of being in a hurry? Let's wait a little longer."
Ye Chuan stroked his chin and said, "Yeah, you still don't believe in Shi Miao's abilities? I bet she did too well on the exam, and the higher-ups are keeping it a secret."
“What you said makes sense.” Ji Sinian looked up at the man who had just finished his phone call and was walking over. “Uncle, what did Grandpa say?”
Ji Yanchen sat down next to Shi Miao with his phone in hand, his tone calm and deep: "We couldn't find anything through Tsinghua University's internal channels either, so the results probably haven't come out yet."
No sooner had he finished speaking than there were two knocks on the door.
A hint of surprise flashed in Ye Chuan's eyes as he asked in confusion, "Who ordered takeout?"
"No, I'll go open the door." Ji Sinian stood up and walked towards the living room door.
"Holy crap! What are you doing here?" He opened the door and was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped when he saw Qin Xiao and Xie Sizhou standing there.
Xie Sizhou patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Of course, I'm here to bring warmth to Sister Shi."
Qin Xiao bypassed Ji Sinian and walked straight to the living room, raising his voice: "Shi Xiaomiao, what's with this zero score? You promised to give me a perfect score!"
Ye Chuan looked up at the two people walking over, his lips twitching slightly: "Damn, did you guys fly all the way from the capital?"
"Brother Chen, how is it? Surprised? Unexpected?" Xie Sizhou walked over and sat down next to Ye Chuan.
Ji Yanchen raised an eyebrow and said with an air of aloof languor, "Are you very free?"
Xie Sizhou coughed lightly and said awkwardly, "I'm not here to check on my sister-in-law's grades, I just came to see her."
Qin Xiao crossed his arms and asked, "Shi Xiaomiao, tell me honestly, did you hand in a blank exam paper?"
Shi Miao put down her phone, raised her clear eyes to look at him, and said casually, "The results haven't come out yet."
Xie Sizhou breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, "Oh my god, you scared me to death! I thought you really got a zero on the test, and I was thinking about how to comfort you."
"Holy shit! Holy shit! Holy shit!" Ji Sinian suddenly stood up abruptly, his finger trembling as he pointed at the laptop on the coffee table.
"Hey kid, what's wrong?" Xie Sizhou was startled by his sudden outburst. He stood up, walked over, put his hands on his knees, and bent down to look at the screen. "Holy crap!"
"Wait, what's wrong with you two? What did you see?" Ye Chuan was completely bewildered by the two of them. He walked over with a curious look, glanced at the computer screen, and rubbed his eyes in disbelief. "Holy crap!"
Qin Xiao frowned. "Are you guys crazy? What the hell is this?"
Xie Sizhou turned the computer towards him, "Take a look for yourself."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao looked down at the computer screen, paused for a moment, and then muttered under his breath, "Damn!"
Shi Miao's brow twitched. She looked up at the group of people who were huddled together, exclaiming "Holy crap!" repeatedly, and asked calmly, "How many points?"
Ji Sinian swallowed hard, seemingly still not fully recovered, and said in a trembling voice, "750 out of 100."
Shi Miao raised an eyebrow, her fair face showing a rather wild expression. "Hmm, just as I expected."
Ji Yanchen gently ruffled her hair with his large hand, his deep eyes filled with tenderness, and his thin lips curled up, "Amazing, Miao Shen."
Shi Miao reached out and scratched his palm, her tone casual and rather roguish: "Keep it low-key."
Xie Sizhou gave her a thumbs up, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration, "Sister-in-law, you're really amazing. You said you'd get a perfect score, and you did."
Qin Xiao raised his chin slightly, his dark eyes brimming with laughter. "Sure, Shi Xiaomiao, what do you want to eat tonight? It's on me."
Upon hearing this, Shi Miao's lips twitched almost imperceptibly, and he clicked his tongue, "Trying to mess with me again?"
Qin Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly, stroked his chin, and said seriously, "It's not that it's impossible."
......
Gu Family Villa.
"Wanqing, have Miaomiao's results come out yet?" Gu Yunbai rubbed his hands together, looking nervously at the woman sitting opposite him.
Gu Wanqing put away her phone and shook her head. "Miaomiao said not yet. I asked someone at Tsinghua University to help check. Let's wait for news."
Gu Qingshan picked up his cup, took a sip of tea, and calmly said, "What's the rush? Don't you believe in Miaomiao's abilities?"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Gu Yunbai's phone rang.
"Hello, are you Shi Miao's father?"
Gu Yunbai was stunned for a moment, "Huh?"
"I'm an admissions officer from Peking University. I'd like to ask if Shi Miao is interested in coming to our university. Peking University is on par with Tsinghua University, and our faculty is among the best in the country. If Shi Miao comes, not only will her tuition be waived, but we will also provide her with a spot as an exchange student at a prestigious overseas university..."
Gu Yunbai then realized that Shi Miao's student file had listed him as her father and had not changed it back.
"Excuse me, I wanted to ask what score she got?"
"Haven't you found it yet? The full score is 750."
"What did you say?" Gu Yunbai's voice suddenly rose, unable to believe what he had heard.
"Shi Miao scored 750 points, becoming the first national champion to achieve a perfect score in history."
......
Even after hanging up the phone, Gu Yunbai was still not recovered from the conversation.
Gu Wanqing frowned slightly and said softly, "Brother?"
Gu Qingshan tapped his cane on the ground. "Yunbai, why are you acting like a dazed person after making a phone call? Who was it?"
Gu Yunbai gripped his phone, took a deep breath, and said excitedly, "A professor from Peking University just called me! Miaomiao scored 750 points! She's the first person in history to achieve a perfect score and become the top scorer in the country!"
"Excellent, excellent, excellent! As expected of my granddaughter, Gu Qingshan!" Old Master Gu stood up abruptly, his eyes filled with undisguised excitement and joy.
Gu Wanqing's eyes and brows were full of smiles as she quickly picked up her phone and called Shi Miao.
Just then, Gu Yunbai's phone rang again.
"Hello, I'm an admissions officer from Nanjing University. Would you be interested in studying at our university, Ms. Shi Miao...?"
......
In just a few minutes, Gu Yunbai received more than a dozen phone calls, and text messages kept coming in.
Finally, he got so tired of answering that he simply turned off his phone.

The President's Office at Tsinghua University.
After checking Shi Miao's grades, Huo Yudong ran straight to the principal's office, where he bumped into Shen Yan, who was rushing over.
The two exchanged a knowing glance, and then Huo Yudong raised his hand and knocked on the door.
"Enter."
Li Wenlin looked at the two people who came in, a slight surprise flashing in his eyes, "What's this?"
"Principal, Professor Shen and I have decided to go to H City tomorrow. I can't wait a moment longer, because I'm afraid Shi Miao will be snatched away by Peking University."
Shen Yan rubbed his hair, his eyes revealing his anxiety. "Yes, Principal, Shi Miao is the apple of my Computer Science Department's eye. If another school snatches her away, who will I cry to?"
Li Wenlin coughed lightly, trying to appear calm, though he was actually quite anxious, but as the principal, he had to maintain his composure.
"I'll go with you tomorrow."
Huo Yudong's eyes lit up, and he said eagerly, "Great, great, I'll go arrange it right now!"
