Chapter 255
Pei Xin sat down with Cao Fulai and Xie Yi'an and chatted casually. The time was much easier to pass, and soon it was time to publish the list.

I saw the gate of the academy opened from the inside, headed by the dean, followed by several professors of the academy, holding the list in their hands, walking towards the notice wall outside the academy.

Immediately, all the students waiting here became excited, but there were guards with knives standing around to maintain order, and they were not allowed to surround them at all.

The dean quickly hung the announcement on the notice wall, his eyes seemed to scan the crowd, but he didn't say much, and led the professors back to the academy.

After they all left, the guards with knives moved away from the notice wall, and the students all gathered around, staring wide-eyed, looking for their names on the list.

In fact, there are ten test centers in the whole country of Ruiguo for the township examination, and there are about 100 candidates in each test point, but there are only more than [-] candidates who can really be admitted as candidates.

Therefore, there are not many names on the list, and most people like to look at the last name, and there will be a mentality that no matter how many people take the exam, they will always pass the exam.

Someone yelled: "I am the last one, haha, I finally passed the exam!"

Many people looked at that person enviously. Even if he was the last one, he won the prize anyway, right?
Naturally, Pei Xin also has the habit of looking from the bottom, but after seeing more than 1 names at a glance, but there is no one of his own, he already felt a little guilty in his heart, and suddenly someone yelled: "No. [-] really is That Chen Ling! This kid is the youngest, and he really reads the best books!"

Pei Xin clenched his fist tightly, and couldn't help but jump to the top of the list. Sure enough, on the golden list, the word Chen Ling suddenly stood at the top.

Pei Xin gritted his teeth, glanced around and saw Chen Ling standing not far away with a surprised look on his face, then turned around and ran towards the carriage.

He snorted coldly, and before he had time to find his name, he heard Cao Fulai shouting beside him: "Pei Xin, what's your name? I'm number 79, and Xie Yi'an is number 56!"

Pei Xin pouted, thinking that even Fatty Cao could get 79th place, so his name must be in the front, so he simply started looking from the top.

Skipping the top two words that he least wanted to see, he started searching from the second name.

Keep going down, keep down, see six Xie Yi'an all the time, but don't see yourself.

Pei Xin became a little anxious, and looked down again, and looked at more than 79 people until he saw [-] Cao Fulai, but there was still no one of his own.

Pei Xin started to panic, could it be that his grades were not as good as Fatty Cao's?
There are not many names left behind, Pei Xin gritted his teeth, comforting himself in his heart, even if it is the second last one, as long as he can pass the exam.

Xie Yi'an and Cao Fulai found their own, and seeing that Pei Xin hadn't spoken for a long time and was still looking for a name on the list, they couldn't help being surprised, and the two of them also helped him find it together.

Unexpectedly, from top to bottom, and then from bottom to top, there are a total of 130 nine names, except for the word Pei Xin.

The people who came to see the list have dispersed quite a bit now, and the entrance of the academy is not so crowded anymore, but Pei Xin's mind is blank at this moment, looking at the golden list blankly, his knees softened and he sat down on the ground .

Cao Fulai and Xie Yi'an glanced at each other, they did not expect such a situation.

Pei Xin failed the ranking?
Because Chen Ling was afraid that Pei Songde would be crowded by the crowd, so he didn't let him get off the carriage. Seeing that the crowd gradually dispersed and Pei Xin didn't come back, Pei Songde had a bad feeling in his heart.

He got out of the carriage and hurried over. Seeing Pei Xin sitting on the ground without saying a word, he knew that Pei Xin probably failed the exam this time.

He quickly scanned the list, and there was indeed no word Pei Xin.

Pei Songde sighed deeply, came to Pei Xin, and said in a low voice: "Xin'er, you failed the exam this time, we can continue the exam next time, you are still young, and you will have plenty of opportunities in the future."

Xie Yi'an and Cao Fulai also nodded quickly and said: "Yes, yes, Pei Xin, don't be discouraged, there are too many people who failed the exam in our academy!"

Seeing Chen Ling standing aside, they hurried over and said, "Chen Ling, congratulations on getting No.1, Jie Yuan from high school!"

Chen Ling twitched the corners of her lips, smiled lightly and said, "It's just luck, thank you."

The words of these few people heard Pei Xin's ears as if they were mocking him. Pei Xin jumped up suddenly, grabbed Chen Ling's lapel and shouted angrily: "Is it you? Did you tell Lord Xiang?" , let him deliberately not let me win?"

Chen Ling said coldly: "Brother Xin, you think highly of me too much. How can I make the prince listen to me? Under the eyes of everyone, don't talk nonsense, I can't afford it!"

Their actions here immediately attracted countless people to watch.

Pei Songde also said angrily: "Xin'er, don't talk nonsense! What's the relationship with the prince this time's test scores?"

Cao Fulai and Xie Yi'an also rushed to pull Pei Xin, lowered their voices and said: "Pei Xin, don't be dazed, I heard that the exam this time is not in charge of Prince Xiang, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Pei Xin murmured, "His Royal Highness?"

Xie Yi'an said in a low voice: "Yes, during the exam that day, I saw the prince. Although he was wearing ordinary clothes, who can imitate the prince's incomparable dignity?"

Xie Yi'an swallowed, and after thinking for a long time, he still didn't tell Pei Xin that the person who accompanied the prince back then was his elder brother Pei Jing.

Pei Xin slowly loosened Chen Ling's skirt, stepped back dejectedly, and fell to the ground.

Pei Songde felt sorry for his son, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and said softly: "Xin'er, it was just a failure. Let's take the exam next time, and we will definitely pass the exam."

Pei Xin covered his face with his hands, his shoulders were trembling uncontrollably, and after a long time he said in a hoarse voice, "Father, let's go back."

Pei Songde said repeatedly: "Okay, let's go home."

He pulled Pei Xin into the carriage, and Chen Ling glanced at Cao Fulai and Xie Yi'an lightly, and said with a light smile, "Congratulations to the two high schools, I'm taking my farewell."

After all, they followed, Cao Fulai and Xie Yi'an looked at each other, why did they always feel that there was a cold warning hidden in Chen Ling's tone?
Xie Yi'an suddenly remembered that during the exam, Pei Jing accompanied the Crown Prince down to the exam room, obviously to see Chen Ling.Chen Ling was actually appreciated by the prince, and both of them couldn't help shivering in Lingling.
