Chapter 756: Friends’ Results
Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Yang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry after reading the story.
Even though Zheng Yi’s family had gone bankrupt, they used to be one of the richest families in Jin City. A “starving camel” was still bigger than a horse, so they weren’t so poor that they couldn’t afford plane tickets.
Gu Yang asked Zheng Yi in the group what he thought.
Zheng Yi: [I thought Di really wanted to experience life…]
Zhu Di was always straightforward and said whatever was on her mind. Zheng Yi, being a relatively straightforward sports student, took her words at face value. This made sense to Gu Yang, but she found it a bit concerning.
Gu Yang: [Then it’s enough to experience it once. There’s no need to go back and forth twice, right?]
Zheng Yi was silent.
Mo Mo chimed in with some mockery: [On the return trip, Zheng Yi suggested taking a plane. Di said that the survival rate of a plane crash was low and even listed many cases. She also said that Sunlight City was far from Jin City and the climate was variable. She was worried that something would happen. So, they continued to take the slow train back, hahaha.]
Gu Yang was speechless.
Gu Yang thought she had done enough to save money for her boyfriend by scamming the Bass family’s spices and essential oils. However, her good sister Zhu Di had been even more frugal.
At this moment, Little Blood Bank suddenly sent her a private message: [Sister, if it were me, I wouldn’t let you suffer even if I went bankrupt.]
Gu Yang hadn’t expected him to be peeking at the chat.
Little Blood Bank rarely participated in the “No.1 Middle School Group” group chat. She assumed he found the “99+” messages annoying and had set it to “Do Not Disturb.”
However, she felt that Little Blood Bank would never go bankrupt; if anything, it would be her going bankrupt.
After Gu Yang and Feng Jue chatted privately for a while, the topic in the group had shifted.
The friends were mercilessly mocking Zhu Di and Zheng Yi. Zhu Di kept arguing with Lu Mao and Mo Mo, while Zheng Yi stepped in to support her. Amid the laughter and teasing, the two of them reconciled.
Her friends then returned to discussing the College Entrance Examination results.
Mo Mo’s results had also been blocked, indicating that she had made it into the top 20 in the province, with an expected score above 710—an extraordinary performance.
Zhu Di didn’t do well in mathematics for the College Entrance Examination, but she made up for it with her scores in science and English, ending up with 693 marks.
With this score, she could have gotten into Capital University or Hua University in Jin City, although her choice of majors would be limited.
Lu Mao’s grades were about the same as Zhu Di’s. He excelled in mathematics, scoring 140 despite the difficulty of the exam. His Chinese was relatively weak, but he had improved significantly with everyone’s help. In the end, his total score was only two points lower than Zhu Di’s.
Zhang Shan and Li Shi both scored over 680. Although their first choices were Capital University or Hua University, they planned to apply to universities in the capital to stay with their boss, Lu Mao.
Zheng Yi also exceeded the cutoff score for Hua University’s sports major.
Overall, everyone performed well, at least meeting their expectations.
Seeing her friends’ results, Gu Yang felt gratified. Her friends had completely escaped the cannon fodder life of the original storyline and were headed toward bright futures.
Zhu Di sighed in the group chat: [It’s all thanks to Yangyang for this exam. After the math exam, I was devastated. As soon as I left the examination hall, I told my father I was preparing to repeat next year.]
[Fortunately, Yangyang pulled me back and spent the entire night comforting me. Only then did I pull myself together and perform exceptionally well in the last two subjects.]
Lu Mao: [No wonder you scored higher than me this time. It turns out that you only lack the comfort of a goddess.]
Gu Yang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: [It’s all because of Di’s own ability.]
In reality, she had only provided Zhu Di with a simple psychological counseling session to help her adjust her mentality, similar to how the school comforted students over the radio after the math exam.
As a top-notch psychologist, her efforts had a more profound effect, but what truly enabled Zhu Di to excel was the strength she had accumulated over time.
Of course, Gu Yang, as a skilled hypnotist, could have done even more. For instance, she could have given her friends some hypnosis or psychological suggestions before they entered the examination hall to help them focus better and perform exceptionally well.
However, she chose not to do that, as it would have been akin to cheating and would have compromised the fairness of the College Entrance Examination.
