Chapter 497 – The College Entrance Exam Trap (Part One)

“No way, is Ye Yunxi really taking the Gaokao?”

“But she’s only a freshman, right?”

The students in the classroom couldn’t help but whisper among themselves.

Bai Ruoyue found it utterly ridiculous. She couldn’t resist rolling her eyes: “Do you really think you’re all that? The final exams haven’t even arrived yet, and you’re already signing up for the Gaokao? Ye Yunxi, aren’t you getting a bit too arrogant?”

So far, she hadn’t achieved a single decent score in any cultural subject, yet she had the nerve to register for the Gaokao? Was she insane?

“If you don’t have what it takes, then stop showing off! If you fail, you’ll be embarrassing all of us at Jun Yao!” Bai Ruoyue spared no mercy in her mockery. After all, she had never liked Ye Yunxi, and to make matters worse, Zhang Qi still had feelings for this bitch!

She wished she could seize every opportunity to kick Ye Yunxi while she was down.

And now, the Gaokao was the perfect chance to confront her!

Yet Ye Yunxi merely smiled, unfazed, and retorted, “Well, if I do get in, wouldn’t that mean even you get to bask in my glory?”

That one remark shut Bai Ruoyue up completely.

Bask in your glory??

As if I’d ever want to bask in your glory!!

I’d rather you fail miserably so I can laugh at you even more!

And while I’m at it, I’ll tell Zhang Qi that the woman he likes is nothing but a boastful, incompetent bitch!!

Bai Ruoyue gritted her teeth in fury, snorted coldly, and stormed off.

“Yunxi, are you really taking the Academic Proficiency Test and the Gaokao?”

Zhang Qi rushed over from his own class, looking shocked: “Th-that…”

If she got in, the next time they’d meet would be three years later at Royal Duke. Part of him actually hoped she wouldn’t make it—at least then they could still spend three more years together at Jun Yao. But…

Still, it would be better if she succeeded, right?

[Ding! First Peach Blossom’s Charm Value increased: +30!]

“Oh my god, Xiao Tangmei, you’re actually taking the Gaokao!”

Ye Lanshan had arrived too, his arms piled high with materials, which he unceremoniously dumped onto Ye Yunxi’s desk with a clatter: “These are all the materials for the Academic Proficiency Test. I can tutor you for the lab sessions, but I’m afraid I can’t help with the Gaokao—I’m only a sophomore, after all!”

Ye Lanshan felt helpless. He could assist with the Academic Proficiency Test, but the Gaokao… well, sorry, Xiao Tangmei, his hands were tied!

[Ding! Prestige +10!]

“No problem, we’ll handle the senior-year curriculum!”

At the doorway, Bai Jingchen adjusted his glasses. Behind him, Heishui Cheng was carrying a huge stack of review materials and grinned at Ye Yunxi: “Little junior, you’re really aiming for the stars, huh? But I wouldn’t mind being your classmate. Hahaha, I have a feeling it’d be a lot of fun studying with you!”

[Ding! Prestige +10+10!]

The materials landed on the desk with a thud, instantly forming two towering mountains of practice questions that made the surrounding students break out in a cold sweat.

Th-this much?! How long is it going to take to get through all of this?!

But even more eye-catching than the study materials were the people who had gathered around.

The Sleeping Prince, Ye Lanshan! The club presidents of Berserker and Hegemon!!

Suddenly, the classroom felt as if it had been graced by their presence!

Ye Yunxi smiled faintly and flipped through the materials: “Thanks, seniors!”

“Don’t mention it!”Heishui Cheng grinned mischievously: “Junior, tell us quickly, how did you suddenly decide to skip a grade? Hey, are you really going to advance with us? Oh my god, I feel inexplicably excited, don’t you?”

While they were chatting and laughing, Ming Siye walked in from outside carrying a stack of notes, awkwardly tossing them to Ye Yunxi: “No matter what, good luck with the college entrance exam!”

The appearance of Ming Er Shao caused a wave of screams and commotion. The girls were about to go crazy!!

The Second Young Master came personally to cheer for Ye Yunxi ahhh!!

Is it too late for them to sign up for the college entrance exam now ahhh!!!
