Stunning Dragon Wife
Chapter 117 - 116

Chapter 117: Chapter 116

"What is this, why has his speed increased even more?"

Outside the window, waiting to see Zhang Xiaoshan’s embarrassment, Zheng Jianhai’s face turned ugly, a picture of complete frustration.

The kind-hearted Xu Jing said,

"Perhaps he really has some true talent and learning?"

At this moment, Jiang Man’s expression also greatly relaxed.

Meanwhile, a responsible and seasoned educator monitoring the exam spoke.

"This set of questions was compiled by several of us old guys, and some of the math problems are quite difficult. The final questions are so tough that even I would need twenty to thirty minutes to solve them. Considering his speed, it’s almost ludicrous. I suspect he’s just scribbling nonsense."

The speaker, well-known in the local educational circles and one of the exam setters, was very aware of the difficulty, so his words carried weight.

Suddenly, Zheng Jianhai’s face brightened once again.

"A country bumpkin, how much real knowledge can he have? Even if he’s given a chance, what could he possibly achieve?"

Jiang Man’s face began to look unpleasant.

At that moment, almost everyone was convinced that Zhang Xiaoshan was just scribbling nonsense.

Just then, suddenly, Zhang Xiaoshan’s swiftly moving pen stopped.

Because the girl in front hadn’t managed to solve the last major question either.

As the old teacher outside had said, this final question was not easy, and they hadn’t really expected anyone to solve it.

At this point, there were only five minutes left.

"Damn it."

Zhang Xiaoshan felt a bit depressed.

If he had a bit more time, perhaps he could have solved the question, but with only five minutes left, just writing down the answer to a major question was challenging, let alone including analysis and the answer.

"Haha, the kid can’t fake it anymore," Zheng Jianhai said with a smug look at the time.

His words clearly had a biting edge aimed at Jiang Man.

Because just outside earlier, Jiang Man had confronted him. After this matter concluded, she was going to deal with him, and he had already decided to side with his boss.

His boss was the person in charge of the Health Education Bureau. This person was originally supposed to take up the position of Vice Chairman Jiang, but Jiang Man being parachuted in spoiled his promotion.

Although Jiang Man had a father with substantial influence, many things within the system still needed to consider policies and balance.

Hearing Zheng Jianhai’s insinuating words, Jiang Man became increasingly irritable.

The attentive Secretary took the opportunity to deflect for Jiang Man.

"Vice Chairman Jiang, we still need to visit City Gate Hospital for an inspection later. Shall we leave now?"

Jiang Man understood the secretary’s intention.

She glanced toward the inside at Zhang Xiaoshan.

"It seems there is no hope left."

After thinking it over, she decided to leave.

"Vice Chairman Jiang, don’t be in such a hurry. There are just a few minutes left. Why not wait a bit longer? Perhaps your protégé could create a miracle?"

At that moment, behind everyone, another mocking voice sounded.

Everyone turned to see a middle-aged man with short hair and a square face, walking swiftly towards them.

Liu Guotao, the head of the Wanshan County Health Education System.

Jiang Man’s arrival had blocked his path, and due to his solid connections, he had caused Jiang Man quite a few inconveniences. Any opportunity to make Jiang Man look bad was something he wouldn’t miss. After receiving a call from Zheng Jianhai, he hurried over.

Upon seeing Liu Guotao, Jiang Man’s gaze swept over to Zheng Jianhai.

It was obvious to anyone that Zheng Jianhai had tipped him off.

"Director Liu, good day!"

Upon seeing Liu Guotao, several staff members of the Health Education Bureau quickly greeted him.

Although Jiang Man as the Vice Chairman had a slightly higher rank than Liu Guotao, he was a legitimate superior and had been in this position for eight years, maintaining strong relations with the Chairman of Wanshan County. No one wanted to offend Liu Guotao.

"Vice Chairman Jiang, let’s go," the Secretary said, sensing the tension and speaking up again.

Before Jiang Man could respond, Liu Guotao had already stepped forward and preemptively spoke.

"Secretary Dong, since when does a subordinate make decisions for their superior?"

"Do you need to instruct Vice Chairman Jiang on how to do her job?"

"I..." Secretary Dong’s mouth twitched, at a loss for words.

"Enough already."

Jiang Man retorted coldly, not sparing Liu Guotao any politeness.

"I know you have grievances against me, but come to me with any issues, don’t make things difficult for my secretary."

However, the experienced Liu Guotao didn’t confront Jiang Man directly, but rather spoke with a hidden sharpness.

"How could that be? Today’s exam is very important for the health education affairs of Wanshan County. As a managing Vice Chairman, it’s definitely beneficial for you to supervise more at the scene. This is also the higher-up’s care for our Health Education Bureau."

"Exactly, Vice Chairman Jiang, please wait until the exam is over before leaving," Zheng Jianhai chimed in supportively.

A group of Liu Guozhong’s cronies also echoed in response.

Jiang Man really found herself in a difficult position.

"Ah, Vice Chairman, look, he’s started writing again."

Suddenly, Secretary Dong’s gaze inadvertently swept over to Zhang Xiaoshan in the exam hall, and he exclaimed in surprise.
