Chapter 189: Tailor-made Essay Questions
Chapter 189
Nan ChaoYang kept checking along the way: "Do you have your admission ticket?"
Nan XiangWan: "Yes."
Nan ChaoYang: "Did you bring your ID?"
Nan XiangWan: "Yes."
Nan ChaoYang: "The exam site will provide stationery, don't be nervous."
Nan XiangWan: "I'm not nervous."
Nan Song: "I'm so nervous!"
Nan ChaoYang: "..."
Soon, they arrived at the exam site. The siblings were in the same site but different classrooms.
The candidates were entering the site in order.
Nan ChaoYang: "Let's go in."
Nan XiangWan took a deep breath and marched forward!
The next second.
Beep beep beep! Beeep—
"Hey you!" A staff approached Nan XiangWan right away and took her away for investigation.
Nan ChaoYang almost fainted!
What on his sister beeped like that all the way?
Nan Song was also shocked outside the gate. Why was his daughter taken away?
Nan XiangWan was confused during the check.
A female staff looked at her cuffs and said helplessly: "You can't bring watches in, didn't your teacher tell you? There are clocks in the exam rooms, and the invigilators will announce time, don't worry about it."
Nan XiangWan: "!!!"
Staff: "Please deposit your watch here and collect it after the exam."
Nan XiangWan: "..."
Kind staff came over to help and comfort her.
"It's fine, don't be nervous, just no watches allowed."
"Did we scare you? Relax girl!"
Nan XiangWan handed over her watch with an awful expression, as if she just swallowed sh*t.
And she specially went to Patek Philippe store to get this watch, but now she couldn't wear it in?
A 78 million dollar watch!
Full of diamonds!
She even wanted to gain good luck through it!
When she was depositing the watch, people around recognized her.
"Ah! Nan XiangWan!"
"I'm in the same exam site as Nan XiangWan?"
"How lucky am I?"
Peers all recognized her, and she soon became famous in this exam site.
The staff also looked at her curiously after the initial surprise.
No wonder she's so pretty!
Turns out she's a celebrity!
After finishing the process Nan XiangWan went back, led by her brother to her exam classroom.
At this point Nan ChaoYang was speechless. Why the hell wear a watch for no reason!
And from afar he saw the watch glittering under the sun, god knows how many diamonds on it.
His sister really went overboard!
Nan Song felt relieved seeing both kids enter smoothly.
It was nothing, just depositing personal belongings.
The first subject was Chinese.
Nan XiangWan sat in the exam room with steady gaze.
When the paper was distributed, she immediately flipped to the last page where the essay question was, and took a quick look first.
Topic: Human bodies change daily. The blind may gain sight, the deaf may gain hearing. The strong at birth who abuse their strength, even the mighty, may eventually become the weakest; while the weak who diligently train themselves, improving what they lack, may become strong over time.
The moment Nan XiangWan saw this long paragraph, her mind went 'boom'!
Blew up!
Neither the dogs nor friends guessed this exam question right.
But...
It matched Nan XiangWan's own situation so well!
Wasn't this describing her?
Extreme training to become strong and healthy!
Ha ha ha!
Excited!
Nan XiangWan almost started writing down martial arts exercises.
She managed to calm down in time, this was an exam, had to write an essay.
So she flipped back and started from the beginning.
With the essay topic in mind, she constructed her essay while answering other questions.
She was confident of a full mark for this essay!
-----------------
Early in the morning when the exam started, Gu Beihuai began searching for information online.
He knew it was too early to get the questions out, at fastest after the exam finished.
While browsing, Gu Beihuai came across some news.
【Nan XiangWan Investigated At Exam Site】
Gu Beihuai: "!!!"
He quickly clicked in and read through.
Oh, just got beeped for wearing a watch, that's all?
Clickbait!
Gu Beihuai immediately reported the article for clickbait.
But his report was slower than the fans' speed of capturing information!
In various fan groups, some had already found Nan XiangWan's exact exam location based on the news photo.
So a large celebratory event was quietly underway...
...
The exam went on until 11:30am.
Nan XiangWan finished early 30 minutes before time, but she didn't hand in the paper early, following her friend's teaching to check her work.
After time was up.
She handed in her paper when it ended.
And walked out proudly!
This went smoothly!
Her brother Nan ChaoYang rushed out to meet her, afraid she couldn't find her way, and led her out together.
On the way he reminded her to collect her watch from the deposit counter.
Their dad Nan Song didn't leave at all, waiting at the school gate the whole time.
Under the blazing noon sun his forehead was sweating.
Seeing the kids walk out together, Nan Song went up to them with two bottles of water.
Nan Song: "Drink some water, let's go eat."
He didn't dare ask how the exam went, afraid to cause unnecessary pressure.
But as soon as they got in the car, Nan XiangWan said: "How did you do, little bro?"
Nan ChaoYang: "So-so, normal performance."
Nan XiangWan: "Oh, you ask me then."
Nan ChaoYang: "......"
Nan Song: "......"
Nan XiangWan: "Ask!"
Nan ChaoYang took a deep breath: "How did you do, sis?"
Nan XiangWan proudly tilted her neck: "Sorry, I've secured the city champion!"
Nan ChaoYang: "???"
Nan Song: "Wow amazing my good girl, high five!"
Nan ChaoYang looked away. As expected, being so confident usually meant not doing well without realizing it.
Nan XiangWan didn't notice her brother's concern at all, high-fived dad happily, then went to eat cheerfully.
............
Gu Beihuai was frantically searching for online information at 12pm.
As expected, some exam questions came out at 12.
Gu Beihuai quickly scanned through. Good good, he had memorized these, especially the reading comprehension section which he had gone through with Nan XiangWan before.
The specific questions were different but he had analyzed the whole passage in detail, she should be able to answer right?
No major issues!
Gu Beihuai scrolled down further, and reached the essay.
Slap!
His cup fell to the ground, water spilled everywhere.
Gu Beihuai's hands shook!
This was bad! Terrible!
The essay topic...
He could even imagine Nan XiangWan getting excited and passionately writing away, eventually going off topic.
Gu Beihuai wiped his face, wanting to message Nan XiangWan to ask how she wrote it.
But he stopped himself from sending it repeatedly.
Still a few subjects left.
Couldn't affect her performance later!
