Chapter 43: Announcing the Results

Huo You immediately controlled her expression and regained her arrogance. “Huo Tian, don’t think that you’re amazing just because you scored three more marks than me in math. In the end, the decision on whether you’ll be staying or leaving will depend on our overall score. You can start the countdown for the time you have left in Qingli High School…”

After saying that, Huo You turned around and returned to her seat. Although she appeared very arrogant, her back gave off the feeling that she had fled from the scene.

Zhang Hao asked Huo Tian with a worried expression, “Study God, if your total score can’t compare to Huo You’s, are you really going to be expelled?”

Huo Tian nodded, but she still looked fearless. “I think so. The school’s board of directors seems to treat Huo You as a standard for outstanding results. If my results are better than Huo You’s, then the board of directors will make an exception and approve my right to stay in the school. It’s really troublesome. They might as well just expel me…”

Before she could finish her words, Huo Tian was given a gentle slap on the back of her head.

Si Huan retracted his hand and looked at Zhang Hao indifferently. “Don’t worry, Huo Tian won’t be expelled.”

Facing the student union’s president, Zhang Hao, who was an ordinary student, felt a natural fear. He shrank his neck and said, “That’s good, that’s good. I still want to find a chance to consult her about homework in the future.”

Si Huan nodded and paid no further heed to Zhang Hao. He said to Huo Tian, who was rubbing the back of her head, “Qingli is not a high school that only cares about results. As long as your results are outstanding or higher, coupled with the abilities you showed outside of class, it’s enough to convince the board of directors and the management.”

“That’s so troublesome.” Huo Tian pouted unhappily. “If my results can’t compare to Huo You’s results and I still have to personally give a report to the school’s board of directors, they might as well expel me!”

“Don’t say such foolish things. The laboratory that the school specially approved for you is almost done. The school’s management won’t let you go.” Si Huan’s expression was calm.

“The overall results will be released this afternoon. I’ll bring you and Bi Ying to attend the board meeting tomorrow. I believe the board members will make the right choice.”

“I get it, I get it…” Huo Tian waved her hand impatiently. “Aren’t you a Year Three student? Why are you in my classroom? ”

“I passed by, so I came over to take a look. I didn’t expect to be treated with such disregard.” Si Huan sighed helplessly. “Huo Tian, you’re really heartless.”

Huo Tian looked up and stuck her tongue out at Si Huan.

A trace of a smile appeared in Si Huan’s eyes. He thought to himself that she was indeed a heartless and foolish girl. However, this was quite good too. At least she’d live an easy life.

…

Before the overall results were released, countless people were in agony, but Huo Tian was not one of them. She had always been a broad-minded person and did not care if she could surpass Huo You in terms of results or if she could continue to attend Qingli High School.

Before the overall results were released, the teachers of each subject distributed the papers to the students. Huo You had realized by now that Huo Tian’s results might not be as bad as she had thought them to be.

Every time the results of a subject were released, Huo You would secretly calculate the gap between her and Huo Tian. Although Huo Tian scored full marks in math and physics, her humanities results were generally not as good as Huo You’s.

There were only two science subjects left which they didn’t know the results of. Huo You heaved a sigh of relief after calculating her results. She felt that she would definitely be able to win against Huo Tian this time. As long as she could chase Huo Tian away in one go, she wouldn’t have to be affected by her in the future.

Before the teachers handed out the remaining two science papers in class, the big screen outside the academic building displayed the tabulated overall results. The names of the students appeared in succession, starting from the higher scores to the lower scores. The rows of bright red numbers made the students nervous.

When Huo You went to check the results while surrounded by a group of girls, she saw her name flashed by.

A girl beside her shouted in pleasant surprise, “Youyou, you’re too amazing. Your overall results can match last year’s top science student.”

A relaxed smile appeared on Huo You’s face.

Huo You stared at the results on the screen for a long while, her frown uncontrollably furrowed increasingly tighter.

She hadn’t seen Huo Tian’s name.

Other people also clearly realized this problem. “Why don’t we see Huo Tian’s name? The list for the top 100 Year Two students should be almost over, right?”

“How can Huo Tian get into the top 100 of the cohort with her lousy results? Her name is definitely not on this list of 100 people!”

Huo You’s face became increasingly darker. She knew that things weren’t as optimistic as these people said. Although she didn’t want to admit it, Huo You knew that Huo Tian’s results were good. Even if she couldn’t compare to her, her ranking wouldn’t be too far off.

However, since so many people didn’t see Huo Tian’s name appearing behind Huo You’s name, there was only one situation that Huo You wasn’t willing to see. Huo Tian had done better than her.

How was that possible?

The list of top 100 Year Two students ended and the list of top 100 Year One students started. Bi Ying came in first place. He scored more than 20 points higher than the second place.

Huo You knew that Bi Ying was Huo Tian’s friend and her expression turned even grimmer.

Following that was the list of top 100 Year Three students. Si Huan was in first place. This was a name that also had a deep connection with Huo Tian. Huo You’s disgust for him was only ranked after Huo Tian.
