Freshmen at Huailin University were caught off guard by a math exam.

Qiaoqiao has a headache. Why did she have to take the math exam? Besides, is history even more important than math?

I only scored 52 points on the college entrance exam. I haven't studied for so long, I estimate I'll only get 30 or 40 points.

They don't even give advance notice of the exam. If we cram for a few days, we can at least make up for some points. The school is dishonest.

The exam was large in scale and the invigilation was very strict. There were 59 history students and four invigilators.

Before the exam even started, Qiaoqiao had completely lost her enthusiasm, swaying back and forth, trying to peek at other people's answers.

Actually, history students aren't much better at math. If they were good at math, who would study humanities, and who would study history?

Oh well, it's all just luck. Whatever score we get, we'll take it.

When Qiaoqiao received the test paper, she couldn't help but show her delight.

This is too surreal! The test paper is actually the college entrance exam paper. It has already been taken once, and the answers were even compared with those of the older brother. How could a pig possibly do worse than the college entrance exam?

She picked up her pen and started writing, but of course, Qiaoqiao still couldn't answer the last question.

Her brother offered to explain it to her, but she refused, saying she wouldn't need math in the future, so she didn't need to understand it.

Qiaoqiao felt a little regretful. The sea of ​​knowledge is boundless. If she had known that she would have to take the college entrance exam again, she would have listened to her brother's advice no matter what.

The exam ended after an hour and a half. Qiaoqiao still didn't know the answers she didn't know, but it was better than the college entrance exam. She had learned a few things she shouldn't have gotten wrong.

I at least passed, haha, this is the best math test I've ever done.

After handing in their exam papers, they went to the cafeteria for lunch. The four members of "Wu Zhou" naturally sat together.

"What's going on at school? They actually re-examined the math section of the college entrance exam. I wonder if it will count towards my graduation grade."

Qiaoqiao finds it funny whenever she thinks about it.

Wang Min hung her head and said, "I got 59 points on the college entrance exam, and I probably won't get even 59 points today. I've forgotten everything. After the exam, no one checked the answers with me."

"59 points is not bad, I only got 52. Gu Tong'an, how about you?"

"I got 78 points on the test, and I should get higher than 78 points today."

"You're so good at math, why did you choose history as your major?"

"I... I'm bad at everything except math and history. I went off-topic in my Chinese composition." Gu Tong'an lowered her head in embarrassment.

"Hey, I'm best at Chinese, but math and geography give me a headache," Qiaoqiao said with a self-deprecating laugh.

"I'm only good at Chinese and history, I'm bad at everything else," Wang Min chimed in.

The three of them talked endlessly about their college entrance exam experiences, while Yao Xing ate his meal in silence.

"Yao Xing, how did you do on the exam?" Qiao Qiao asked kindly.

Yao Xing shook his head: "Not good."

"It's okay, none of us are good at it. There aren't many people in the history department who are good at math, Gu Tong'an is an exception."

Qiaoqiao quickly tried to persuade him, saying that since he had already entered university, even if he didn't do well on the exam, he wouldn't be expelled, right?

Most people were baffled by this inexplicable exam, but Yao Xing knew why; he was filled with worry.

Before I started school, my father told me that if I encountered any difficulties, I should go to Principal Yao Kaiping, who was an uncle from the same clan and would help me.

More than a month into the new semester, Yao Xing had never bothered Principal Yao, but now he had no choice but to go.

Around 7 p.m., Yao Xing rang the doorbell of Principal Yao's house.

"Who is it?" It was the same cold-blooded nanny.

"Auntie, hello, I'm looking for Principal Yao. I'm his nephew from the same clan. My father's name is Yao Sixi," Yao Xing replied hurriedly.

"Wait a minute."

The nanny glanced at Yao Xing and went inside to report. A short while later, the nanny hurriedly came out, opened the courtyard gate, and her expression had softened considerably.

"Go inside quickly, Principal Yao is waiting for you in the living room."

Yao Xing bowed to the nanny and said, "Thank you."

Yao Xing was so unwilling to step through this door, yet he had no choice but to.

Yao Kaiping was standing in the living room when he saw Yao Xing enter. He greeted her happily, "Hello, Yao Xing!"

Yao Xing bowed and said, "Hello, Principal Yao."

"Hey, since we're family, let's not call him Principal Yao. Let's call him Uncle Yao. Come on, come on, please sit down. Sister Fang, make some tea."

Yao Kaiping was admitted to university in his early years and left his hometown. He achieved some success, but when the movement began, he was sent to a remote area for reform and did not return to his hometown for two or three decades.

Today, I was overjoyed to find that some of the students were younger members of my own clan.

"Yao Xing, not bad. Being among the first batch to get into university shows you're an outstanding talent. Besides me, you're the second person in our Yao family to go to university," Yao Kaiping said as he poured tea.

"Principal Yao, I..."

"Didn't I tell you to call him Uncle Yao? Family members should call each other 'uncle'. I haven't been exonerated for long, and I've been busy with school matters, so I haven't had time to go home. How is your father's health?"

"fine."

Yao Xing was in a state of turmoil and had no interest in talking to Yao Kaiping about their hometown.

"It's been over a month since school started, and you haven't come to see me yet. Are you a little stressed about your studies?" Yao Kaiping asked kindly.

"No, it's..."

"Why are you hesitating? Are you having some trouble?"

Suddenly, Yao Xing stood up, knelt before Yao Kaiping, and cried, "Uncle Yao, please help me..."

"What, what's wrong with you? Get up, get up!"

Yao Kaiping tried to pull Yao Xing up, but Yao Xing just wouldn't get up.

"Uncle Yao, I didn't know how to do any of the math questions on the test at school today, so I just randomly answered a few multiple-choice questions," Yao Xing said, crying.

Yao Kaiping paused for a moment, then sat down and asked, "You didn't take the exam yourself?"

"It's my father. He paid someone to take the exam for him. I said no, and he scolded me. Uncle Yao, please help me. I can't be expelled. If I go back, my father will lose all face," Yao Xing pleaded.

"Get up first. This isn't the old society anymore. Why are you kneeling all the time?"

Yao Xing got up, sat uneasily in the chair, and looked at Yao Kaiping expectantly.

"You're smart; you know the exam is to investigate illegal cheating. This is a notice issued by the Education Bureau. Students whose scores are far below the college entrance exam cutoff will be removed one by one and will never be allowed to take the college entrance exam again."

I thought our Yao family had produced another talented person, but little did I know, you got in through fraud. Yao Sixi, Yao Sixi, you've always been full of clever ideas since you were little, why use your cunning on the child?

"Uncle Yao, I was wrong. I shouldn't have tried to take shortcuts. I've been at university for over a month now, and I really enjoy the learning atmosphere. I'm also working hard to improve. Could you give me another chance? I promise I can graduate from every course."

At first, Yao Xing didn't want to come, but he couldn't resist his father's scolding as the brigade secretary.

After starting school, Yao Xing felt like he had arrived on another unknown planet. His classmates were all outstanding and did not compete for power or money, but focused on studying.

He was also trying to catch up with Yang Qiao, Gu Tong'an, and Wang Min, but the gap was too big, how could he catch up all at once?

Give him four years, and he will definitely be able to complete all the exams and get his diploma.

"Yao Xing, you and your father's starting point is wrong. Huailin University is not my business, and I have no right to keep a student who got in by taking the exam for someone else. If we condone this kind of trend, what value will our university have? Everyone will just take the exam for someone else. It's unfair to the other students who take the college entrance exam."

Yao Kaiping said calmly, looking very disappointed.

"Uncle Yao, I..." Yao Xing was about to cry again.

"Yao Xing, this surprise exam is to strictly investigate students who got in by taking the exam on their behalf. It's also to give a fair and just account to the 160 million students."

If the college entrance exam is unfair, what fairness is there in the world? Your scores will be reported to the education bureau; there's nothing I can do to help you. I can't exactly go to the education bureau and say, "Yao Xing is my nephew, please make an exception for him," can I?

Yao Kaiping made it very clear that if you make a mistake, you have to take responsibility; he would never open that back door.
