From that day on, Xiaoqi also started to study and memorize books day and night, just like her brother.
There are three students in the family preparing for the college entrance exam, but one of them is incredibly bored.
Han Fei disliked him and snatched the rice bowl from his hand: "Eat, eat, all you know is how to eat. Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi have gone back to their rooms to do their practice problems. Why are you still here?"
Xiao Wu looked up in confusion, a grain of rice still clinging to the corner of his mouth: "Grandpa, can I compare to them? One is striving to be the top scorer in the college entrance exam, and the other is fighting for face."
"Have you forgotten what you promised your second sister?"
Xiao Wu took out a report card: "The latest mock exam results."
Han Fei took a look and saw that the score started with 7, more than 700 points!
"You took the test yourself? You didn't cheat?"
"My system is too scared to even show itself because of my sister's kitchen knife, how am I supposed to cheat?"
"I don't remember you having such good grades."
"My grades have always been excellent!" Xiao Wu said proudly. "Before, with the system helping me cheat, my grades were never bad! I can only say that this exam truly showcased my own abilities!"
In fact, Xiao Wu himself did not expect that he could get such a high score without cheating through the system.
He used to rely on the system, so he always cheated to get high scores on exams. This was the first time he had to take the exam without the system's assistance, and he was a little nervous. But he didn't expect his results to be so good!
"Grandpa, I'm sure I'll be fine with Longda. As for being the top scorer in the college entrance exam, I won't put in the effort. Let Xiaoliu do the work. When my sister comes back, I'll explain to her, and she'll definitely understand. After all, Xiaoliu and I are from the same province. If I become the top scorer, Xiaoliu won't be able to keep her promise."
Han Fei glanced at him sideways: "With your grades, you're still a long way from being the top scorer in the college entrance examination."
"Anyway, I have a legitimate reason not to work hard!" Xiao Wu stared longingly at the rice bowl in Han Fei's hand: "Grandpa, can you give me back my rice bowl? I'm so hungry. Actually, I have been trying to do some practice problems, but it's hard on the brain and makes me hungry."
Han Fei handed him the rice bowl and asked, "What else would you like to eat? I'll add some dishes for you."
"I want to eat braised pork knuckle!" Xiao Wu slurped his saliva.
"Okay." Han Fei went to the kitchen to get busy.
With three students preparing for exams at home, Han Fei spent even more time in the kitchen than usual, preparing afternoon tea and late-night snacks for them in addition to breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
He doesn't actually approve of his children staying up late to study, but Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi are so engrossed in it that no amount of persuasion from him can stop them. They study until 1 or 2 a.m. every day.
In the mock exam, Xiaoqi felt she wrote very smoothly, and even solved the last big question.
Before the exam results were announced, someone reported to the Education Bureau, claiming that Xiaoqi had bribed the principal to get a guaranteed admission spot.
The principal was a little flustered, but he felt relieved when Xiaoqi's homeroom teacher handed him the latest mock exam results.
The investigators from the Education Bureau arrived quickly, speaking in an official tone, with serious and unsmiling expressions.
The principal couldn't keep a straight face either, so he tried to smile and said, "Do you have some misunderstanding about me? I really haven't taken any money from students' parents."
"As far as we know, Han Qi's grandfather is the richest man in the province. Even if you didn't take money, you must have received some benefits, otherwise why would you have given her the spot?"
"Han Qi is working very hard, obviously to get into the same school as her brother. As the principal, I see all the students' efforts and I would never discourage them. Although she works very hard, her scores always fluctuate and she has some weaknesses. I gave her the spot to encourage her."
"Do you think we haven't checked her grades? She's always been at the bottom of the class. There are so many students who work harder than her. Aren't you afraid of making others feel bad?"
The principal slowly took out a report card from the drawer: "These are the results of this mock exam. Please take a look."
The first one to receive the report card was Han Chengliu.
They had seen many such report cards. When investigating Han Qi's grades, they would always see Han Chengliu ranked first, while Han Qi was usually at the bottom. Since they shared the same surname, Han, they had managed to make it consistent from the beginning to the end.
But this time the report card is different.
They started searching for Han Qi's name from the very last place, and kept searching until they found the fifth place. Score: 706!
"How...is this possible?"
"She jumped from 532 to 706 in just one month?"
"Did you know we were coming, so you made a fake report card?"
The principal took out the test paper: "This is her mock exam paper. You can check it."
"It is indeed Han Qi's handwriting."
"The mistakes all lie in carelessness; the young girl actually understands that."
"If we hadn't been so careless, we could have scored even higher."
"What a pity."
"This score is enough to get into Peking University, but it depends on what major she chooses. If it's a popular major, she might be assigned to another one."
"If we use the guaranteed admission quota, she can study the major she wants."
"This spot is indeed suitable for her."
The two inspectors returned the exam paper to the principal, who thought the matter was clear and he was innocent. However, the two did not leave. One of them said seriously, "We must test it again ourselves. Exam papers can be faked."
"You've all said the handwriting is hers, so how can I fake it?"
"You can have her copy it."
“We must test her on the spot.” One of them took out a test paper from his briefcase, seemingly having prepared in advance.
Xiaoqi was called to the principal's office. When she saw the two serious-looking uncles, she blinked, looking both obedient and adorable.
The two had already seen Han Qi's photos and knew she was a very pretty girl, but they didn't expect her to be even prettier in person.
If this 15-year-old girl can truly score over 700 points on her own merit, and achieve such a score through a sprint, it will absolutely become a legend.
"Han Qi, listen to me..." The principal told her about the two men's background and what they wanted to test her about.
Xiaoqi had a suspicion when she learned that someone had deliberately reported her.
It's the same old theory: vested interests!
If the report is successful and she is disqualified, then who will get the spot? Whoever did it will be the instigator!
It seems she needs to be taught a lesson before she'll learn how to behave properly!
Just as Xiaoqi was diligently working on her questions under the watchful eyes of two inspectors, a venomous snake suddenly appeared in the classroom.
The whole classroom was in chaos. Students screamed, and the timid girls even cried. The teacher called the security guard, but when the guard saw the snake's triangular head, he didn't dare to grab it and could only call the fire department.
While everyone was panicking and scared, the venomous snake charged toward the class monitor with a clear purpose. The class monitor turned and ran, but another venomous snake of the same kind appeared in the direction she ran. She changed direction again, and there was another one. She changed direction again, and there was another one... She was surrounded by seven venomous snakes.
The squad leader crouched down, buried his face in his hands, and cried out, "Don't bite me, don't bite me..."
"The squad leader was bitten on the butt by a poisonous spider before, and now he's surrounded by poisonous snakes?"
"Did she wear perfume that attracts poisonous insects and snakes?"
"Could it be that he did something wrong and now he's getting his comeuppance?" Xiao Liu said casually.
Following the top student's words, the students began to discuss: "I heard my grandfather say that venomous snakes are very intelligent and won't attack someone for no reason."
"She must have done something, or killed a snake king."
"Squad leader, quickly admit your mistakes and tell them all the bad things you've done. Maybe they can understand. Snakes are very intelligent."
"Yeah, class monitor, tell me quickly, what bad thing did you do?"
The snake drew closer, and she could clearly hear it hissing. Terrified, she trembled uncontrollably, her back soaked with cold sweat. Overwhelmed by fear, she couldn't contain her terror and began to confess: "I was wrong. I shouldn't have reported it. I shouldn't have reported the principal for accepting bribes, which is why I gave the spot to Han Qi. It's all my fault..."
"Please don't come any closer! I beg you, these are all the bad things I've done..."
The whole class stared at her in shock.
They would complain in private and envy Han Qi for having a good older brother, but they never thought of reporting him.
What good does reporting a school or its principal do them? Absolutely nothing. It only brings shame to their school. How embarrassing would it be for graduates of such a school?
"Class monitor, do you think that if Han Qi doesn't get a spot, it will go to you?"
"Class monitor, are you stupid? If the education bureau thinks there's something wrong with this, the spots will just be canceled, and nobody will get them!"
"Not only will Han Qi's spot be canceled, but the other students' guaranteed admission spots will also be canceled. You will implicate everyone!"
"If you are very dissatisfied, you can go to the principal's office and make a scene. Maybe the principal will feel guilty and find a way to get you a spot."
"You secretly reported it, making such a big deal out of it; it'll be hard to handle!"
"Enough! All of you shut up! What did I do wrong? Did I report something wrong? This spot shouldn't have belonged to Han Qi in the first place!"
"You know perfectly well that Han Qi did not bribe the principal, yet you are spouting nonsense and slandering the principal!"
"You can report it, you can say the principal is unfair, but you can't talk nonsense!"
"You want to make a big fuss and get the education bureau to take it seriously, but you can't do it like this!"
