The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot
Chapter 483 - 483 441 Zhong Manhua Ying Yuexuan do you deserve me 3

Chapter 483: 441 Zhong Manhua: Ying Yuexuan, do you deserve me?! [3 more] Chapter 483: 441 Zhong Manhua: Ying Yuexuan, do you deserve me?! [3 more] Ying Yuexuan’s expression changed dramatically, and she blurted out, “Mom!”

Without a second thought, she immediately rushed in, intending to shut down the computer.

But her hand stopped abruptly mid-way.

For years, she had always obeyed Zhong Manhua; Manhua’s desire to control her was so strong that it almost suffocated her.

Even in junior high, what she wore every day was dictated by Zhong Manhua.

Things were a little better in high school, but Ying Yuexuan truly didn’t dare to defy Zhong Manhua, even if she really did not want Manhua to see.

Ying Yuexuan’s ears buzzed, filled with panic and even more disbelief.

Her admission ticket was right in her own pocket.

How did Zhong Manhua get her admission ticket number and candidate password?

“What’s the matter with you?” Zhong Manhua stared at the computer, her tone much colder, “You can’t even remember your own admission ticket number and candidate password, and it’s a good thing I called your class teacher, who sent it to me.”

Ying Yuexuan’s palms were sweaty, and her heart grew more and more anxious.

She just watched the webpage continuously reloading, and then a dialog box popped up.

Her heart nearly stopped.

[College entrance examination scores are temporarily unavailable.]

Zhong Manhua frowned and refreshed the webpage, re-entering the admission ticket number and candidate password.

However, the webpage showed the same prompt.

[College entrance examination scores are temporarily unavailable.]

Ying Yuexuan breathed a slight sigh of relief, “Mom, there are too many people checking scores at this time, the network is congested.”

“Then we’ll just wait,” Zhong Manhua also felt some impatience, but she had to restrain herself, “This network is not getting any better.”

After another ten minutes, Zhong Manhua began the search again.

This time, contrary to Ying Yuexuan’s hopes, the scores displayed.

Name: Ying Yuexuan

Candidate Number: 1916xxxx2039

Chinese: 102

Mathematics: 87

English: 140

Science Comprehensive: 206

Total Score: 535

City Ranking: 18239

The college entrance examination only has city and provincial rankings, not a total national ranking.

Zhong Manhua simply couldn’t believe what she was seeing.

She refreshed the webpage again and again, four times, and it was still the same score.

The stark “535” and “18239” seared her eyes.

Shanghai City only has one city, so the number of people taking the college entrance examination is not as many as a province.

This year, the total number of college entrance examination candidates was sixty thousand.

In recent years, the admission rate to first-tier universities in Shanghai City has been higher than other provinces and cities, at 31%.

That is to say, only 31% of all the candidates taking the college entrance examination could be admitted to a first-tier university.

Ying Yuexuan’s score ranking was barely on the edge of the first-tier cut-off.

If this year’s cut-off for the first-tier universities was even slightly lower, she wouldn’t make it.

On the side, Ying Yuexuan watched with cold hands and feet.

535 points.

Forget top-tier universities, even getting into a first-tier university was difficult.

And for a Project 985 university, she would have to score at least a hundred points above the cut-off for first-tier universities.

The admission score for Imperial Capital University in previous years had always been upward of 695 points.

In Verdant Talented Class, every student could get into Imperial Capital University.

That’s why they were known as the strongest class.

Ying Yuexuan truly hadn’t expected to score so poorly.

She had thought that she would at least score dozens of points above the cut-off for first-tier universities.

Zhong Manhua only felt a surge of blood to her head, feeling tightness in her chest and dizziness.

Under extreme anger, she suddenly stood up, raised her hand, and slapped Ying Yuexuan’s face.

Ying Yuexuan’s mind buzzed, stunned by the blow.

Never in her life had Zhong Manhua hit or even scolded her.

Ying Yuexuan, holding her face, trembled as she looked up, her tone unbelieving, “…Mom?”

This time, Zhong Manhua had no intention of comforting her.

Her gaze was icy, her voice harsh, almost hysterical, “Ying Yuexuan, have you let me down?!”

She had raised Ying Yuexuan for 18 years, waiting for this day of the college entrance examination, hoping that the Ying Family could produce a top scholar and bring glory to the family.

Zhong Manhua was traditional in her thinking, to her, nothing was more important than producing a top college entrance examination scholar.

She had never considered sending Ying Yuexuan abroad; at most, she thought of study tours as a year or two as an exchange student.

It would be better still for her to remain and develop in China.

This sentence struck right at her heart.

Ying Yuexuan’s complexion paled slightly.

“535 huh,” Zhong Manhua said and couldn’t help but laugh, “Ying Yuexuan, tell me, with these results, which university can you attend? Speak up!”

“Whether you can even attend a first-tier university is an unknown!”

The eldest daughter of the Ying Family, unable to get into a first-tier university, would become a laughingstock if word got out.

She lost all face entirely.

Zhong Manhua’s chest heaved with anger, her expression steely.

“Mom, there might have been a mistake with my results,” Ying Yuexuan said, knowing that panicking was useless. She pursed her lips, “Mom, aren’t you clear about my scores in the mock exams?”

“Even if I truly underperformed, it’s impossible for my score to drop by two hundred points.”

Upon hearing this, Zhong Manhua thought it over and felt it might be possible.

But her expression did not soften, her tone still cold: “Then go to the school now and ask the teachers.”

Over at Verdant .

Since Ying Zijin was still in the capital and couldn’t return at the moment, the academic director made a video call to her.

In the video, the girl sat beside a desk, with a huge floor-to-ceiling window behind her.

“Classmate Ying, what do you think about this?” The academic director, beaming with excitement, held up two banners for her to see, “If this one doesn’t look good, how about this one?”

The academic director’s taste could only be described as an oddity at Verdant Middle School. He was particularly fond of artistic design.

The certificates and trophies for many competitions such as sports meets and arts festivals were all designed by him.

Once, he designed a spiral trophy and even chose a dirt-yellow color for it.

The students of the school suffered silently at his hands.

The principal already knew this, so he had several other teachers prepare a few banners as well.

Ying Zijin glanced at a red banner covered with many yellow and white flowers: “…”

This wasn’t a banner; it was a mourning hall.

The other one wasn’t any better.

It had two large red embroidered balls hanging on it.

Those unaware would have thought she was getting married in ancient times.

Ying Zijin paused for a moment, then pointed to a banner that the academic director intentionally placed further away: “I think that one is quite good.”

That was the one prepared by the other teachers.

“Ah, alright then.” The academic director rolled up his meticulously designed banner with a tinge of reluctance, “If you like that one, then let’s go with it.”

He picked up the banner chosen by Ying Zijin: “Classmate Ying, which university do you plan to attend?”

International universities normally don’t consider the gaokao score, but Ying Zijin was an exception.

With her results from the ISC international finals, universities around the world were practically begging her to join them.

Ying Zijin didn’t hesitate and said directly, “I’ll go to Imperial Capital University.”

She had watched Norton University being established and had spent a considerable amount of time there, finding it quite uninteresting.

She was afraid that if she went there, she’d be urged by the vice chancellor to teach students of the Alchemy Department and Astrology System.

Moreover, Norton had not returned yet.

She had calculated several times and still couldn’t pinpoint Norton’s exact location.

The only certainty was that there was no danger to his life.

Norton acted arrogantly with a wild temperament, but he really hadn’t disappeared for such a long time before.

Ying Zijin raised her hand to touch her forehead.

“Attending Imperial is also quite good,” the academic director said, “Imperial has developed really well in recent years. I’ll go hang the banner now. Classmate Ying, we’ll have a banquet when you’re back.”

After saying that, he ended the video call, cheerfully descending the stairs.

**

Twenty minutes later.

Zhong Manhua and Ying Yuexuan arrived at Verdant Middle School.

Apart from them, there were many other parents and students.

After the gaokao results were released, it was time to fill out college application preferences.

Verdant Middle School had assigned dedicated planning advisers for its students to help them fill in preferences based on their interests, personality, strengths, and weaknesses, preventing them from choosing the wrong major.

This kind of situation had happened before, where a student chose a major that did not match their abilities, couldn’t continue, and ultimately had to drop out and retake the gaokao.

However, these parents were all gathered at the school gates and had not gone in.

“Mom, look, quick, look!” a girl excitedly pulled on her mother’s hand, “Our gaokao top-scorer!”

The girl’s mother was astonished: “750 points? Full score, that’s too incredible, right?”

“Of course!” the girl was even more excited, “She’s our motivation to study. Mom, I managed to score 670 this time because I couldn’t let her down.”

Zhong Manhua overheard this and was equally astounded.

This year’s national gaokao was so difficult, and yet someone had achieved a full score?

Who could be so capable?

Zhong Manhua stopped, curiously following the group of parents to take a look.

It was a large banner, fluttering in the wind.

It was red, eye-catching, with letters in gold foil.

It was right in front of Zhong Manhua, clearly visible at first glance.

[Congratulations to Class 19 student Ying Zijin for achieving a full score of 750 points and becoming the Shanghai City gaokao top-scorer and national first place!]
