Chapter 17 Little Paper Ball

  It was unbelievable what Yīn Yè Chén said, and for several seconds, Xú Hán didn't say another word. Finally, she let out a helpless sigh and smiled slightly. She thought to herself that as just an ordinary poor person, how could she understand the nonchalance of the wealthy? Xu Han thought that they wouldn't know how difficult it was to make money.

  "Uh-huh, I know, next time I'll buy some good ones."

  This was just a temporary deception, and Xu Huan couldn't really afford such an expensive meal. She paused for a moment before continuing, "If there's nothing else, I'll hang up, my food isn't finished yet." Her tone was very calm, and for a moment, Xu Huan found it hard to believe the way she was speaking, but when Yin Ye replied with a sentence, her heart gradually calmed down.

  "Should I go to bed early? The exam is tomorrow, isn't it?" Xu Han repeated Yin Ye Chen's last words in a daze, stopped worrying for a moment, and suddenly felt a few points of satisfaction.

  It's time to eat, Xuhuan continued eating dinner with chopsticks.

  There was always a lingering thought in her mind: this dinner is too expensive, so Xu Han tried to finish everything as much as possible.

  So, holding his stomach, Xu slowly returned to the dormitory. This evening didn't require staying up late, as he had already roughly gone over all the key points, and it also happened to be in line with that guy's thoughts, saying something about going to bed early.

  Xu Han lay on the bed, quietly watching the faint glow that remained after the lamp was turned off, a smile spreading across her face.

  ……

  After a good night's sleep, it was time to take the exam.

  The exam location was a special place. Xu Huan held the admission ticket in her hand and found the classroom where she belonged, then took out her pen and waited for the start of the exam.

  It's just that I don't know which exam venue Yin Ye Chen is in, Xu Han couldn't help but think of this question again, and her heart suddenly felt hot, so she lowered her head even more.

  It's an exam now, and she still thinks so much. Xuhuan sat in her seat and felt more and more speechless about herself. Finally, in order to thoroughly erase this feeling, Xuhuan chose to do something else and shifted her gaze. She found that sitting at this distance, every position was strictly separated by a certain distance.

  This is indeed cheating, Xu Han couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion, but this has shown the emphasis that Anling College places on examination discipline.

  With such an arrangement, if there is cheating behavior, then the punishment of Anluo College for cheaters will naturally become more severe.

  But then again, a question suddenly popped into Xu Han's mind: Everyone here is so capable, do they also need to cheat?

  Okay, maybe it's for better results or something, and indeed the competition here is still very fierce.

  Ah, then Xu Han, must work twice as hard now.

  This is what I wanted, but this time I won't be too miserable either. Xuhang thought that he had made sufficient preparations for this exam, and it would be a waste if all his efforts were in vain.

  Then wait, Xu Han smiled and said in her heart, the next moment when she inadvertently turned her gaze, she saw Lu Ying sitting on one side. Xu Han's eyes suddenly fell on Lu Ying's body, but just now this position was empty? It turned out to be Lu Ying's seat, at this moment the latter had no reaction, bowing his head as if thinking about something.

  Wow, what good luck! When Xu Huan saw that Lu Qing had some signs of raising her eyes, he suddenly turned his gaze away. He couldn't help but take a small breath in secret, this might be good luck, but no matter what, it can't affect this exam. It's not like they're close anyway, and the figure brought by the corner of his eye wasn't very clear either, so Xu Huan relaxed a bit.

  Xu Han, at this moment, just when Xu Han didn't notice, Lu Ying turned around and glanced at Xu Han, her eyes filled with complex meaning, a feeling that was hard to decipher.

  The bell for the exam rang soon.

  Looking at the exam paper handed down, Xu Han confidently started writing.

  One by one, Xu Huan didn't think any of the questions were difficult, so she was able to do them relatively smoothly. At this critical juncture, it would have been possible to speed up, but Xu Huan still hoped not to make a single mistake, so she forced herself to slow down as much as possible. In short, there was definitely enough time, and Xu Huan didn't appear flustered.

  At the moment when Xu Han was concentrating on the exam, Lu Ying on the side had other thoughts in her mind. At this moment, her eyes kept glancing at Xu Han from time to time, of course, under the condition that the invigilating teacher did not notice.

  Suddenly, Xu Huan heard a faint rustling sound from under the table. The sound was so small that it could be completely ignored. But somehow, Xu Huan felt a strange feeling in his heart and slightly lowered his head to see what the sound was.

  "Teacher, there's a paper ball here."

  Just as Xu Han shifted her gaze away, Lu Ying called out to the teacher.

  A ball of paper? As soon as Xu Huan's line of sight touched a small corner of the paper ball, an uneasy meaning immediately appeared in her heart. Before she had fully realized it, the teacher walked to the edge of Xu Huan's desk and picked up the paper ball.

  Following the direction of where the paper ball was picked up, it was spread out. At this time, Xu Han stared blankly at the serious expression on the teacher's face.

  "Teacher, this isn't mine." Xu Han immediately replied, his heart growing increasingly tense, as he couldn't help but take small gasps of air.

  "Xu Han, come to my office for a moment." After glancing at the note and then at Xu Han's answer sheet, the teacher put away the note with an air of obvious suppressed anger and solemnity.

  "But I'm still taking the exam."

  Xu Han only felt a sudden tremble in her heart, she understood what leaving the examination room meant, that is to say, all her previous efforts were in vain. No, Xu Han bit her lower lip and looked at the teacher with a pleading gaze, the corner of her eye caught the surprised, puzzled and mocking gazes of others, her hand holding the pen was trembling slightly.

  "...wanted to say something more, but found the next moment the invigilating teacher walking towards the door. At this moment, Xu Han's mind was a bit blank. Such a scene, if not going out would be even more trouble, how could it be like a dream? Xu Han slowly stood up and followed the figure."

  On the way to the office, Xu Han endured not looking at other people in the examination room. When passing by, he was brought along by this strange gaze, and Xu Han clenched his fists tightly.

  What was written on that note after all? Why are you so sure it's mine? Is it just because it fell at my feet? Xu Han pursed her thin lips, slightly lowered her gaze, and a deep, inexpressible feeling welled up from the bottom of her heart.

  Just as he walked into the office, Xu Huan suddenly realized that the crumpled paper had the answer written on it.

  "Xu Han, you also know the exam discipline of Anling College." The teacher sat down, unfolded the paper ball and put it in front of Xu Han, waiting for her words.

  The answer, indeed the answer. Xú Hán looked at the content above and suddenly had a hint of a smile. But it was soon replaced by a sense of sadness and doubt. Her somewhat disbelieving eyes saw that the handwriting on this crumpled paper was surprisingly familiar.
