Chapter 471 - 471 431 The Collapse of the Ying Family is a Trivial

Chapter 471: 431 The Collapse of the Ying Family is a Trivial Matter [16th Update] Chapter 471: 431 The Collapse of the Ying Family is a Trivial Matter [16th Update] The principal’s hand shook, and he nearly smashed the cup himself.

Seeing his reaction, the academic director knew he was also startled and spread his hands, saying, “Principal, what did I tell you? This top student of the college entrance exam is not ordinary, right? How do you expect me to remain calm?”

Even among top students of the college entrance exam, there is a gap.

The higher the score, the more important that one missing point becomes.

Over the years, Hua Country had only produced two full-score top students in the national exam.

But the difficulty of those years’ exams can’t be compared to this year’s; they are not on the same level.

The academic director recalled a saying.

If others score 750 points, it’s because they can only score 750 points.

When Ying Zijin scores 750 points, it’s because the test’s total score is only 750 points.

Truly worthy of being God Ying.

The principal didn’t respond to the academic director because he hadn’t snapped out of the shock from the perfect score report.

After a while, he took off his glasses, wiped them with a piece of paper, put them back on, and then looked over the results carefully once more.

The two “1s” blinded him, as did the string of perfect scores.

The principal slowly exhaled and slumped back in his chair.

Indeed, the top students of Shanghai City’s college entrance exam were all from Verdant.

But the national first place wasn’t something Verdant could claim every year.

Aside from Imperial Capital University, another top high school had always competed with Verdant for the top spot in the national test scores.

Of course, there wasn’t officially such a thing as a national top student.

Since they are not from the same region, it was more of an informal term used in conversation.

But a full-score national top student…

That was indeed the first he had seen.

“With all sincerity,” the principal muttered, holding his cup, “Classmate Ying really did write the essay.”

It was merely a question, not coercion.

Originally, Ying Zijin didn’t even need to sit the college entrance exam.

The principal remembered the words he had told her the day before the exam—

“I don’t like promises, but once I give my word, I will see it through.”

The principal heaved a heavy sigh.

Thank goodness, he hadn’t given up on any student willing to work hard.

Curious about the essay, the academic director asked, “Principal, how did you persuade Classmate Ying to write it?”

Ying Zijin’s laziness was legendary at Verdant, a well-known fact.

Ask for her help, and she would assist.

Ask her a question, and she’d explain, no matter how many times you asked.

But she was too lazy to walk, too lazy to write.

The principal glanced at the academic director and snorted, “Secret.”

Academic Director: “…”

He saw the principal was so delighted inside that he was looking down on people through his nostrils.

Touching his head, the academic director prepared to share the good news with his close friend, the director of moral education.

“Wait, there’s another thing.” The principal stopped the academic director, frowning. “On the score report you brought, why didn’t I see the name of Ying Yuexuan?”

Ying Yuexuan’s reputation at Verdant was thoroughly tarnished, but her scores were genuinely excellent, topping the grade on every mock exam.

“Ying Yuexuan?” Reminded like this, the academic director also remembered, “I don’t think I saw it either.”

The score report, obtained from Imperial Capital University, only listed the top 500 student scores in Shanghai City.

If Ying Yuexuan’s name wasn’t among these top 500, there was only one possibility.

This time, in the national exam, Ying Yuexuan hadn’t even made it into the city’s top 500.

A silence settled in the office.

Both the principal and the academic director seemed to have reached the same conclusion.

What kind of blow did she receive?

How could one underperform so drastically in the college entrance exam?

From a likely top three in the city to falling beyond rank 500?

All of a sudden, the academic director said, “Principal, based on what I’ve seen in melodramatic family dramas about parents who are desperate for their children’s success, Madam Ying is probably going to scold Ying Yuexuan.”

“Do you think, in a fit of anger, she might kick her out of the house?”

And if Madam Ying knew that Ying Zijin was the top student in the college entrance exam, how great would that gap in expectations be?

He felt that a breakdown was the least of her worries.

What could be more painful than losing something you once had?

The principal kept silent for a moment, then pointed at the door, saying, “The door is that way.”

Academic Director: “…”

He instantly turned and rolled out.

At Imperial Capital University, they specially pulled up Ying Zijin’s examination papers.

Ying Zijin’s name was already known to everyone in all the top universities.

It was only after seeing her results that the professors and teachers knew she was really safe and unharmed.

But this did not include Zuo Li.

Ying Zijin was afraid Zuo Li would worry, so after she woke up, she made a phone call to him.

Zuo Li was not one of the teachers grading the papers; he was seeing Ying Zijin’s college entrance exam paper for the first time.

He didn’t need to look at the math or science sections to know that Ying Zijin had arrived at her answers with the simplest and quickest methods, even better than the standard solutions.

What he looked at was the Chinese paper.

Even after experiencing the ISC international finals, Zuo Li couldn’t help but be surprised, “Classical Chinese?”

He didn’t understand classical Chinese much, but just from looking at the expressions of the professors from the Chinese department, he knew how profound her essay was.

And this handwriting, it was really too beautiful.

Grading it was a pleasure to the eyes.

“Make a phone call!” The professor from the Chinese department finally snapped out of it, running out like mad, “Hello, Verdant, right? Could you please give me Ying Zijin’s parents’ phone number, thank you, thank you so much.”

Zuo Li: “…”

Damn it, another one trying to poach her.

Watching one professor after another from different faculties leave excitedly, Zuo Li felt incredibly weary at heart.

He stepped out and quietly made a phone call to Ying Zijin, “Classmate Ying, do you know how many points you scored?”

On the other end of the phone, Ying Zijin yawned, “A perfect score, unless I didn’t write the title for my essay.”

Zuo Li: “…”

True to form, God Ying.

Wen Family.

Wen Fengmian was reading a book when the urgent ringing of the landline interrupted the tranquility of the room.

He glanced sideways at it.

It was a strange number.

But it was marked as a spam call.

With a son as talented as Wen Tinglan, Wen Fengmian had an excellent memory too.

So even after a year, he recognized it as a call from Imperial Capital University.

Moreover, this spam call was marked by him.

At the time, he was so annoyed by the incessant calls from Imperial Capital University, and each faculty called more than once, so he marked each call individually.

Today, the 21st, with less than three days to go until the college entrance examination results were officially released.

Wen Fengmian thought about it and knew that Imperial Capital University was calling again for the same reason.

He didn’t even need to ask; he knew Ying Zijin must have clinched the top scholar spot in the college entrance exam.

But this year, Imperial Capital University was even earlier and more urgent with their calls than the previous year. Wen Fengmian guessed that Ying Zijin’s score was probably not 750 but 749.

After thinking it over, Wen Fengmian decided to answer it anyway.

But before he could, a second call came in.

Tagged with the words “spam” as well.

Wen Fengmian: “…”

The sporadic Imperial Capital University, year after year.

Wen Fengmian didn’t answer either of the calls and slowly stood up, walked to the back, and disconnected the telephone line.

“Dudu——”

The ringing stopped abruptly.

The world quieted down considerably.

While many people were anxiously waiting for the results of the college entrance exams, at eight o’clock in the evening, a new Weibo post exploded across the internet.

[@Tong YufeiV: I calmed down for a few days, but I couldn’t stay calm. This incident has caused me tremendous harm, both physically and mentally. Once I speak out, I don’t know how many strange looks I’ll receive.

But if I don’t speak out, I don’t know how many more young women with dreams in the entertainment industry will have to suffer such painful experiences.

Now, I am going to use my words to tell all about the hardship I endured that day.

On the evening of June 15th, I went to the Meile Grand Hotel at the invitation, where my agent told me the company had allocated some filming resources for me to discuss and choose from.

I trusted my agent, so I went.

But what I didn’t expect was that I was not waiting for any filming resources; instead, I encountered brutalities by a group of villains.

They humiliated me and threatened me not to speak out about this, or else they would blacklist me in the industry.

At first, I was very scared; I still wanted to act and continue in the entertainment field.

But then I realized, constant tolerance would only let the other side become more aggressive.

Anyway, I had already been violated; I wasn’t afraid to offend you anymore, so I’m naming names directly.

The Executive Director of Chuguang Media, and three directors, one manager, are the villains I encountered in that private room.

Chuguang Media, do you think you can do whatever you want just because you’re Hua Country’s top entertainment company?

Impossible!

I’m standing up today to expose your misdeeds.

Chuguang Media, you are not human! You are disgusting! You are vile!

I’m waiting for the day you get your retribution!!!]
