Chapter 696: More Face Slaps & the Forum Blows Up!
Shen Qianzi did not know how to feel now. Back then, when she received the notes, she had tossed them away without even taking a single look. Now, Zheng Miao and Tang Xiaoxiao’s scores were almost sixty marks higher than hers even though they had failed three subjects.
It took her some time to suppress her emotions and squeeze out a smile. “I didn’t have the time to look at the notes.”
Xu Wan stared at the trio in confusion. “What notes are you guys talking about?”
Tang Xiaoxiao’s and Zheng Miao looked at one another. Fearing that they might inadvertently cause trouble for Gu Mang, they said, “It’s nothing.”
Xu Wan’s eyes flickered for a moment, but she changed the topic, asking, “Oh yeah, what’s Gu Mang’s score? I remember our department having high expectations of her.”
Zheng Miao shook her head. “I have no idea. She’s not back yet.”
“Students from other majors have already received their ranking through emails,” stated Xu Wan. “How come we haven’t received ours?”
Capital University gave out scholarships based on ranking whenever they had exams.
Just as they were talking about this matter, their phones’ notification bells rang at the same time. Zheng Miao, who happened to be holding her phone, looked at it and told the rest, “The counselor has sent the document to the WeChat group.”
Xu Wan clicked into the document and spotted her name right away. Her rankings were not bad. She had ranked fifteenth in the department and ninth in their class. She then scrolled up to see the names above hers. When she came across the row filled with ‘100s’ her eyes bulged in surprise. “What the heck? Someone managed to score full marks on all subjects?!”
The others noticed it too. With two fingers, they zoomed in on the name of the person who came in first.
Xu Wan’s mind went blank when she saw the name. “It’s Gu Mang...”
...
Meanwhile, the university’s forum blew up when Gu Mang’s results came out.
[Holy cow! There’s only one person who scored full marks on the advanced mathematics exam, but that person is from the medical school and not the mathematics major?]
[I feel embarrassed for the mathematics major.]
[This is so sick! To think I was the top scholar of my province! It feels like my intelligence has been thoroughly insulted!]
[Everyone here is a genius, but we’re all nobodies when compared to Gu Mang.]
[I’m fortunate to be at the same university as this big boss...]
Gu Mang took the university by storm once more in just a matter of minutes.
...
In the medical informatics lab.
The seniors who were asking about Gu Mang’s results earlier saw a screenshot of her results on the forum. Those who studied medical informatics were all overachievers who had majored in both medicine and computer science, but even if they were to go take freshman year’s exams now, they had no confidence that they would score full marks on the S-level difficulty exams.
This junior... is really something...
An awkward silence descended upon the lab and everyone remained in a daze for a long time.
...
After leaving the lab, Gu Mang headed straight for the library. With her cap and earphones on, and her black backpack slung over her shoulder, she slowly made her way over, her eyes slightly lowered. People were constantly staring at her, but due to her aloof aura, they only dared to whisper among themselves when she had walked past them.
“That’s the big boss who scored full marks on advanced mathematics and beat the rest of the students in her department when she didn’t even attend class! What a pro!”
“From now on, I’ll pray to her whenever I have exams!”
Gu Mang found the book she needed in the library and was just about to go find herself a seat when her phone vibrated. She took it out and saw that she had received a message from Lu Chengzhou. It read, [Want to have lunch together?]
With raised eyebrows, she placed the book back on the bookshelf and turned around to lean on a wall. She typed, [Are you in the vicinity?]
Lu Chengzhou sent a voice message over. [Yes, I have things to settle at Capital University.]
She replied, [Okay.]
Lu Chengzhou sent another voice message to her. [Where are you? I’ll go pick you up.]
[In the library.]
[Wait there. I’ll text you when I’m there and you can come out then.]
