Chapter 198: Final Exams

Liu Man thought that she wasn't very close with Zhu Xiyang, she had never spoken with him before.

Zhu Xiyang had an amazing reputation in school, a young pianist, an associate professor, and successfully hosted the first concert. He had a future, looked handsome, and the students all praised him. Why did Xue Yunfei despise him so much?

She was confused.

"Why?" Liu Man asked.

"Polite Scum is the exact word to describe him." Xue Yunfei thought that it was necessary to alert Liu Man.

"I was in the same grade as Zhu Xiyang, he was in Piano and I was in Composing. You might not know but in America, though Berkeley Conservatory of Music is very famous, it focuses mostly on modern music such as, Jazz, Folk Song, Rock, and Blues. Classical music isn't very popular in the school. Frankly, a good piano player would not choose Berkeley Conservatory of Music for studying. This is enough to prove that Zhu Xiyang's piano skills suck."

Liu Man thought back, Zhu Xiyang rarely showcased his own skills in piano in front of the class, the only time he did was for a short exemplar.

"But he performed a solo during the New Year Concert."

"Don't you know that these concerts aren't professional at all?" Xue Yunfei laughed, "these concerts are full of connections, people with real ears for music are never invited."

"Poor grades are a minor problem. Zhu Xiyang's biggest problem is his character." Xue Yunfei didn't want to talk about dark things in front of Liu Man, scared of polluting her pure heart. But fearing that she might fall for Zhu Xiyang's traps, he decided to tell her, "Zhu Xiyang has a lot of money at home, lives in a luxury house in Boston, drives a luxurious car, and his relationships are messed up. If a girl looks good enough, he would try to get close and use money to lure them to take the bait. Almost no one has escaped his palm, and he has played with most of the girls. What is even more disgusting is that he took drugs!"

Liu Man was shocked, Zhu Xiyang was very elegant and polite on the surface, she would never guess that he was this kind of person!

"He was sent to a drug rehabilitation center by the American police three times. He finally quit the last time he went there. His reputation in the United States is disgusting. He can't stay in America with his reputation anymore, which is why he came back. I didn't expect him to get a position in your school," Xue Yunfei said. "As for what background he has, I don't know."

Liu Man was reminded of Li Xiaoru's words and said, "My friend told me that his father was our school's former principal.

"Ah, that's why he was so rich," Xue Yunfei's confusion was solved, "Looks like when his father was still working, he got a lot of money."

Xue Yunfei truly hated Zhu Xiyang to the point that he didn't care what he said, these kinds of things should never be discussed in public.

The only reason why Liu Man asked about Zhu Xiyang was because of Wang Nina.

She only thought of Xur Yunfei's words as gossip, but she didn't think that in just a few days she would face head on with Zhu Xiyang.

Four days after Tang Tu's concert, Liu Man was challenged by the first English exam of her life.

She was really nervous!

She read all the textbooks, and she could roughly understand the texts through various dictionary lookups.

Liu Man went to the exam full of confidence, but the second she looked at the paper full of Latin alphabet, her confidence was lost.

Her brain was blank, and she found herself reciting those words, as if suddenly she didn't know anything. No matter how good her memory was, she couldn't do two things at once. Liu Man herself is an ancient person who has never seen English. Usually, she needed to memorize large amounts of ancient poetry and needed to write it down in calligraphy. Then she had to memorize thousands of English words, to simply put it, her energy and brain capacity wasn't large enough for this.

And English wasn't something that could be improved with just memorization.

When Liu Man turned in her paper, she was sweating a bit.

She did her best.

After the test, she knew her scores weren't going to be pretty.

When Li Xiaoru saw Liu Man's expression, she was worried. English was a very important class, it took up 4 points. Considering that they were art students, the problems were already easier than usual and most students could successfully get a high score.

But Liu Man wasn't the same, if her English still didn't meet the standard, then her total ranking would be in danger.

The bad feeling came back, Li Xiaoru was so afraid. Afraid that Liu Man would be expelled.

English 4 was the first shot of the final exam, and the exam week of the Conservatory of Music was also coming. There were many exams, large and small, and Liu Man and Li Xiaoru were so busy that they could not take care of other extracurricular matters.

Before the Exam week, Liu Man said to her fans,

"I need to prepare for Final Exams these two weeks and I can't stream anymore. Now, I wish every other student that's also going through exams luck!"

The fans were very considerate of her, and they also sent their blessings to her. Liu Man was already a godlike existence in everyone's eyes. An exam is a piece of cake for her!

Indeed, the next exams were very simple, Liu Man had no problems, but if she had no problems, then other classmates who were better than her also had no problem.

The last exam was the final professional assessment for the fourth semester.

Through a whole semester of piano practice and the participation in large and small concerts, Liu Man's piano level is enough to easily pass this assessment.

The three teachers of the piano department all knew Liu Man. To be precise, every teacher in all departments of Western Music knew her. After Liu Man finished playing her exam repertoire, the teachers nodded in satisfaction, and let her pass without asking anything.

Walking out of the exam area, Liu Man saw Li Xiaoru waiting for her. Li XIaoru walked up smiling, asking her about how she did.

Liu Man was in a daze. She remembered last semester, at the same location, Li Xiaoru and Wang Nina surrounded her and asked about how she did.

She looked at Li Xiaoru. Li Xiaoru didn't change, but Wang Nina wasn't the same Wang Nina anymore.

In the afternoon, Liu Man learned about her professional assessment score, 90 points, 4 points higher than last semester. These 4 points were probably encouragement points the teacher gave her for her improvement this semester.

At the end of the exams, students with good grades happily welcomed the summer vacation, while students with poor grades were anxious, and kept refreshing their queries on the school's official website to see if the results of other courses came out.
