Chapter 50: Chapter 50: Instant Face-Slapping 6
"Everyone, make way, theyâre about to put up the honor roll!"
At this moment, a powerful voice rang out. The director of education, accompanied by the homeroom teachers, approached with several rolls of lists bundled up.
Finally, it was time to find out their scores!
The students quickly stepped back to the sides, their eyes fixed on the teachersâ actions.
What everyone was thinking about now was whether they could pass, because only those who made it into the pre-selection had the qualification to take next yearâs college entrance exam. Many of the students here were from rural areas, and they had studied hard, hoping to get into college as a way out of the countryside. This was equivalent to a turning point in their lives.
The director of education began to post the lists. The scores were posted starting from the bottom. When the director started posting the bottom names, the scene instantly went quiet.
The students with good grades looked relaxed, those with average grades were tense, quietly praying their names wouldnât appear on the last page, while those with poor grades were resigned to their fate!
Jiang Tianâs grades were average in the class. She knew she could pass, so she wasnât nervous at all. Instead, she was very worried about Nianyangâs scores.
Although Nianyang promised she would definitely pass, Jiang Tian didnât believe Nianyang could surpass Zhao Yi and Yang Haiyan. She didnât want to see Nianyang humbled!
Compared to Jiang Tianâs anxiety, Nianyang appeared completely calm, as if victory was assured. Seeing this, Zhao Yi couldnât help but sneer, "Gu Nianyang, open your eyes and see, your bottom score is about to be revealed. Letâs see if you can maintain your calmness then!"
"Gu Nianyang is such an idiot, itâs not the first time sheâs at the bottom. Sheâs probably used to it. Anyway, Iâm already prepared for her to bow down." Yang Haiyan laughed. But when she saw that the last place wasnât Nianyang, her laughter stopped abruptly.
How could this be?
Gu Nianyang wasnât the last this time?
"Youâre lucky this time!"
Zhao Yiâs face stiffened. He was so sure Nianyang was the last, yet she wasnât, which was a bit of a slap in the face. But not being last didnât matter much; Nianyang surely wouldnât escape a low ranking!
However, after Zhao Yi, Yang Haiyan, and Gu Youlan carefully checked the entire bottom list, all three of them turned pale!
Because Nianyangâs name wasnât anywhere on the bottom list. Not only Zhao Yi and his group, but all the students and teachers were taken aback!
The notoriously poor student Gu Nianyang was not on the bottom list for the first time, it was sensational news!
"Yangyang, this is great, youâre finally off the bottom list!" Jiang Tian cheered for Nianyang.
Zhao Yi snorted, "Itâs just luck that she didnât make the bottom list, whatâs there to be proud of? Itâs not like she made it to the pre-selection list, the result is the same!"
As he spoke, the list had reached the third page, from 350 to 300. Surely Nianyangâs name would be there?
However, as everyone looked one by one, they still didnât find Gu Nianyangâs name!
This was like something out of a fantasy! If Nianyang wasnât in the bottom 50, then not in the bottom 100 either, it was simply unbelievable!
The expressions on everyoneâs faces turned subtle!
Zhao Yi and the others had initially believed they were sure winners, thinking that Gu Nianyang was about to embarrass herself. But when they saw she wasnât even in the last 200, the sweat started trickling down in anxiety!
Whatâs going on?
Why havenât they seen Gu Nianyangâs name yet?
Gu Youlan bit her lip hard, things had severely exceeded her expectations!
Finally, it was time to post the pre-selection list.
By now, Zhao Yi and his companionsâ faces were filled with despair, because not seeing Gu Nianyang in the bottom 200 meant she might have made it to the pre-selection!
Other students began to realize this issue too, and now they looked at Nianyang with seriousness!
Emma, this was like a horror story!
