Ying Yuexuan's expression changed drastically. She blurted out, "Mom!"
She rushed in without thinking and was about to turn off the computer.
However, her hand stopped abruptly midway.
For many years, she had listened to Zhong Manhua. Zhong Manhua had a strong desire to control her, so much so that she almost suffocated.
Even when she was in junior high school, Zhong Manhua had the final say on what she wore every day.
Things were slightly better in senior high, but Ying Yuexuan really did not dare to disobey Zhong Manhua, even if she did not want Zhong Manhua to see it.
Ying Yuexuan's ears were buzzing. Other than fear, she was even more in disbelief.
Her admission ticket was in her pocket.
How did Zhong Manhua get her admission ticket number and the candidate's password?
"What's wrong with you?" Zhong Manhua stared at the computer. Her tone was much colder. "You can't even remember your admission ticket number and the candidate's password. Fortunately, I called your homeroom teacher and he sent it to me."
Ying Yuexuan's palms were sweating. She was getting more and more anxious.
She watched as the webpage kept spinning. Then, a box popped up.
Her heart almost stopped beating.
[The college entrance exam results are temporarily unavailable.]
Zhong Manhua frowned. She refreshed the webpage and re-entered the admission ticket number and the candidate's password.
However, the webpage still had the same notification.
[The college entrance exam results are temporarily unavailable.]
Ying Yuexuan let out a sigh of relief. "Mom, there are too many people checking the results at this time. The network is congested."
"Then wait a little longer." Zhong Manhua was a little impatient, but she could only endure it. "The network is not good. “
After waiting for another ten minutes, Zhong Manhua started checking again.
This time, Ying Yuexuan's wish was not fulfilled. The results were out.
Name: Ying Yuexuan
Candidate ID: 1916xxxx2039
Language: 102
Mathematics: 87
English: 140
Comprehensive Science: 206
Total Marks: 535
City Ranking: 18239
There were only city and provincial rankings for the college entrance examination results. There was no overall ranking for the national exam.
Zhong Manhua couldn't believe what she was seeing.
She refreshed the webpage again and flipped through it four times, but the result was still the same.
The two distinct numbers "535" and "18239" stung her eyes.
There was only one city in Hucheng, so the number of people taking part in the college entrance examination was not as high as that of a province.
The total number of people taking the college entrance examination this year was 60,000.
In the past few years, Hucheng had a 31% success rate compared to other provinces.
In other words, only 31% of the candidates who participated in the College Entrance Examination would be able to get into a book.
Ying Yuexuan's ranking just happened to be in the first tier.
If this year's release rate was slightly lower, not a single book would be released.
Ying Yuexuan watched from the side, and her hands and feet turned cold.
535 points.
Not to mention a top university, even a university would be difficult.
As for 985, it had to be at least 100 points higher than the minimum score.
Imperial Capital University's admission cutoff score had always been above 695 points.
Qing Zhi's Elite Class was able to get into Imperial Capital University.
That was why it was called the strongest class.
Ying Yuexuan really didn't expect that she would do so badly.
She had thought that she would at least score a few points higher than the cutoff score.
Zhong Manhua could only feel her blood rushing to her head. Her chest felt tight, and she felt dizzy.
In extreme anger, she stood up suddenly, raised her hand, and slapped Ying Yuexuan directly across the face.
Ying Yuexuan's brain buzzed for a moment. She was stunned by the slap.
Ever since she was young, Zhong Manhua had never scolded her, let alone hit her.
Ying Yuexuan covered her face and trembled as she lifted her head. She said in an incredulous tone, "… Mom?"
This time, Zhong Manhua had no intention of comforting her.
Her gaze was cold, and her voice was cold. She was almost hysterical. "Ying Yuexuan, how can you face me?!"
She had nurtured Ying Yuexuan for 18 years. She had been waiting for the day of the college entrance examination. She wanted the Family Ying to have a top scorer in the college entrance examination and bring honor to their ancestors.
Zhong Manhua had a traditional mindset. In her opinion, nothing was more important than being the top scorer in the college entrance examination.
She also didn't have any intention of sending Ying Yuexuan abroad. At most, she would study abroad as an exchange student for a year or two.
It would be best for her to stay in the country and develop her career.
This sentence directly hit her in the heart.
Ying Yuexuan's face turned pale.
"535 points." Zhong Manhua laughed as she spoke. "Ying Yuexuan, tell me, which university can you get into with this score? Tell me! "
"It's still unknown whether you can even get into a university!"
The daughter of the Family Ying's family couldn't even get into a university. If word got out, she would become a joke.
She didn't even have a shred of dignity left.
Zhong Manhua was so angry that her chest was heaving up and down. Her face was ashen.
"Mom, it's very likely that my score is wrong." Ying Yuexuan knew that it was useless for her to panic. She pursed her lips and said, "Mom, don't you know how I have done in the past few mock exams?"
"Even if you did perform poorly, it's impossible for your score to be 200 points lower."
After hearing what she said, Zhong Manhua thought about it and felt that it was possible.
However, her expression didn't soften and her tone was still cold. "Then let's go to the school now and ask the teacher."

At Qing Zhi.
As Ying Zijin was still in the capital and couldn't come back at the moment, the Dean of Academic Affairs made a video call to her.
In the video call, the girl was sitting at a table with a huge floor-to-ceiling window behind her.
"Mr. Ying, what do you think of this?" The Dean of Academic Affairs happily held up two banners for her to see. "If this one doesn't look good, what about this one?"
The Dean of Academic Affairs' aesthetic sense was one of the oddities of Qing Zhi High School. However, he liked to do artistic design.
He designed the certificates and trophies for every sports meet, art festival, and many other competitions.
Once again, he designed a spiral trophy and made it khaki in color.
The students in the school suffered because of him.
The principal already knew about it, so he asked a few other teachers to prepare a few more banners.
Ying Zijin glanced at the red banners with many yellow and white flowers hanging on them and was speechless.
This wasn't a banner. It was a mourning hall.
The other one wasn't any better.
There were two big red embroidered balls hanging on it.
Those who didn't know better would think that she was getting married in ancient times.
Ying Zijin was silent for a moment and pointed at a banner that the Dean of Academic Affairs had deliberately placed far away. "I think that one is quite good."
That meant that it was prepared by the other teachers.
"Oh, okay." The Dean of Academic Affairs reluctantly rolled up the banner he had carefully designed. "If you like this one, then so be it."
He picked up the banner that Ying Zijin had chosen. "Mr. Ying, which university do you plan to go to?"
Foreign universities usually didn't look at the college entrance examination results, but Ying Zijin was an exception.
With her results in the ISC International Finals, universities all over the world were begging her to go to them.
Ying Zijin didn't think and said directly, "I'm going to the Imperial Capital University."
She had watched Norton University's establishment and had stayed there for a long time. She felt that it was quite boring.
She was afraid that if she went there, the vice-principal would urge her to teach alchemy and astrology students.
Moreover, Norton hadn't come back yet.
She calculated a few more times and found that she still couldn't figure out Norton's exact location.
The only thing she was sure of was that his life was not in danger.
Norton was arrogant and crazy, but it had never disappeared for so long.
Ying Zijin raised her hand and pressed her forehead.
"It's good to go to Imperial University," the Dean of Academic Affairs said. "Imperial University has been developing really well in the past few years. I'll go and put up the banner for you. Mr. Ying, I'll wait for you to come back for a banquet."
After saying that, he ended the video call and went downstairs happily.
**
Twenty minutes later.
Zhong Manhua and Ying Yuexuan arrived at Qing Zhi High School.
Other than them, there were also many parents and students.
After the college entrance examination results were out, they had to fill in their application forms.
Qing Zhi High School assigned a special application planner to the students. They were responsible for filling in the application form according to the students' interests, personalities, strengths, and weaknesses to prevent them from signing up for the wrong major.
It wasn't that this had never happened before. Because the major they applied for was different from the student's ability, they couldn't continue and had to drop out and repeat.
However, these parents were all surrounding the school gate and didn't go in.
"Mom, look, look!" A girl held her mother's hand excitedly. "Our college entrance examination top scorer!"
The girl's mother was surprised. "750 points? Full marks? Isn't that too amazing? "
"That's right!" The girl was even more excited. "She's our motivation to study. Mom, I was able to get 670 points this time because I can't let her down."
Zhong Manhua was also very surprised when she heard that.
The national college entrance examination this year was so difficult, but there was actually someone who could get full marks?
Who was so amazing?
Zhong Manhua stopped and looked over curiously with the group of parents.
It was a very big banner that was fluttering in the wind.
It was red and very eye-catching. The words on it were hot gold.
It was right in front of Zhong Manhua's eyes. She could see it at a glance.
[Congratulations to our student from Class 19, Ying Zijin, for being the top scorer of the college entrance examination in Hucheng with a perfect score of 750 points. First in the country!]
