Wang Jianjun and the principal looked at each other, their eyes flashing with uncontrollable excitement.
Then, their eyes simultaneously turned to the other side of the desk, where the little girl was still studying hard with her pen scratching.
Fine beads of sweat oozed out of Fu Qingqing's forehead, and the tip of her small nose was slightly red, obviously the result of her high concentration.
Wang Jianjun cleared his throat and tried to make his voice sound calmer: "Teacher Lin is right."
"However, we still have to wait and see how the child performs in other subjects."
"After all, if you only excel in one subject but are too biased in other subjects, that's not good enough."
The principal nodded approvingly.
The smile on Lin Jianxue's lips remained unchanged. She knew that this was just a procedure.
Qingqing had already passed most of the real test.
The office was silent again for a moment, with only the stubborn sound of the ceiling fan and the slight sound of Fu Qingqing's pen scratching across the paper.
About ten minutes later.
Fu Qingqing let out a breath and put down the pen in her hand.
She raised her head, a look of relief and uneasiness on her face as she sorted out the remaining test papers in front of her.
"Wang Yuren, Principal Gao, I... I'm done." Her voice was thin, with a hint of weakness after the exam.
The principal walked over first and took the still warm test papers from Fu Qingqing.
Wang Jianjun also came over immediately, and the two of them stood side by side again, lowering their heads to review it carefully.
Lin Jianxue stood aside, watching quietly, but she was also worried about Qingqing.
She knew the situation was clear, but no one could remain completely calm at this fateful moment.
Time passes by every second.
The expressions on Principal Gao and Wang Jianjun's faces changed from initial concentration to surprise, then to shock, and finally to a look as if they were looking at a rare treasure.
Finally, the principal put down the red pen in his hand, raised his head, looked at Wang Jianjun, and then at Lin Jianxue, his eyes so complicated that it was difficult to describe.
He took a deep breath, his voice trembling with disbelief, and announced, "Yu Yu, one minute."
"Mathematics, 10 points."
"Physics, 10 points."
"Chemistry, one point."
"Politics..." The principal paused, as if to confirm he hadn't seen it wrong, before slowly saying, "Ninety-nine points."
The office was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Such an achievement was not only surprising to Wang Jianjun and Principal Gao, two experienced educators who had seen all kinds of students, but even Lin Jianxue, who had high expectations for Fu Qingqing, could not help but show a hint of surprise in his eyes.
This child is even better than she expected!
Wang Jianjun's mouth was slightly open and did not close for a long time. Looking at those almost flawless test papers, he felt that the person in front of him was not a fifteen-year-old country girl, but a real academic genius.
The principal picked up the stack of test papers and gently stroked the densely packed red ticks on them with his fingers.
He looked at Lin Jianxue and said solemnly, "Teacher Lin, you and Xiao Xue should wait outside for a while."
"Wang Yuren and I have some things to discuss."
Lin Jianxue nodded, her voice still gentle: "My dear, the principal of the high school, Wang Yuren."
She walked over, took Fu Qingqing's slightly cold little hand, and said softly, "Qingqing, let's go out and wait."
Fu Qingqing's little face was full of confusion, as if she had not yet recovered from the shocking score report. She let Lin Jianxue lead her out of the office.
Standing in the corridor outside the office, the afternoon breeze blew in from the window, bringing a hint of heat.
Fu Qingqing tightly grasped Lin Jianxue's hand, her palms full of sweat. She whispered with deep anxiety, "Sister Xiaoxue, can I...can I pass?"
She tilted her little face upwards, her big eyes filled with fear of what was happening.
Lin Jianxue's heart softened when she saw her like this, but she deliberately raised her voice to ensure that the people in the office could hear clearly:
"Of course, Qingqing!"
"Your academic performance is so good, with almost perfect scores in every subject. How could a school not want a student like you?"
"Even if, I mean, if Zhenhai High School really has some difficulties..."
"At worst, we can try other high schools in the county, or even in the city!"
"Sister Xiaoxue believes that with your grades, there will always be schools vying for you!"
There was silence for a moment behind the office door.
Suddenly, after a while, the slightly old wooden door opened with a creaky sound.
Wang Jianjun stood at the door, his expression much more relaxed than before. Although he still looked a bit serious, his eyes revealed an admiration that was hard to conceal.
He waved to Lin Jianxue and Fu Qingqing: "Teacher Lin, Fu Qingqing, please come in."
The two of them walked back into the office.
Wang Jianjun pointed to the two chairs across from his desk and said, "Sit down."
Lin Jianxue took Fu Qingqing and sat down.
Wang Jianjun exchanged a glance with the principal, then cleared his throat and said, "Teacher Lin, Fu Qingqing is here."
"Just now, the principal and I have already discussed it carefully."
His eyes fell on Fu Qingqing: "We at Zhenhai High School are willing to consider allowing Fu Qingqing to study here."
Fu Qingqing's small body shook violently, her eyes opened wide in an instant, and quickly filled with tears.
A relaxed smile finally appeared on Lin Jianxue's lips, coming from the bottom of her heart.
Wang Jianjun then said, "However, there are a few prerequisites. I hope you can understand and comply with them."
Lin Jianxue immediately became serious: "Wang Yuren, please tell us what you want to say. We will definitely cooperate."
Wang Jianjun nodded and said in a serious tone, "First, Fu Qingqing's classmate's family background is quite special. She cannot reveal her true background to any other classmates at school. This is very important."
"First, I hope your village won't make a big fuss about this matter."
"You also know that Fu Qingqing's identity is still very sensitive."
"Our school took a big risk by accepting her and doesn't want any further complications."
When Lin Jianxue heard this, the stone in her heart fell to the ground completely.
She immediately stood up and bowed slightly to Wang Jianjun and Principal Gao, saying with a sincere and grateful tone, "Wang Jianjun, Principal Gao, thank you so much!"
"We fully understand what you have said and will strictly abide by it."
"We will definitely not cause any trouble to the school, let alone spread rumors."
She paused, glanced at Fu Qingqing, who was beside her, speechless with tears welling up in her eyes, and said with a hint of emotion:
