Three years of preparations for the college entrance examination had led to this.

On the 7th of June, Xu Zhen woke Ye Lingchen up early in the morning. He got up, brushed his teeth and had breakfast at one go. Soon afterward, Xu Zhen brought along Ye Lingchen to leave the house together with Ye Jin gazing at their departing silhouettes. They boarded the school bus and headed to the examination hall.

The school bus bumped along the road. Xu Zhen continued to brief Ye Lingchen on the important matters to look out for during the examination. At the same time, she consoled Ye Lingchen so he could be at ease without feeling overly stressed.

"What a coincidence, Sister Zhen."

The school bus passed through Ye Lingchen's village so it was very normal for them to bump into familiar faces. "Lingchen is taking his examination in Rugao No.1 High School as well? So is my Hu Zi."

"Ah, it's Xiao Mei and Hu Zi. What a coincidence." Xu Zhen replied with a smile. She said to Ye Lingchen, "Greet Auntie Mei, quick."

"Which examination hall is your Lingchen allocated to?" asked Auntie Mei.

"Examination Hall No.37."

"No.37? That's the same for my Hu Zi too! What a huge coincidence!" Aunt Mei chuckled once again and looked to Ye Lingchen. "Lingchen, how's your revision? Don't be too nervous about the college entrance examination. Try your best to score well in the examination."

"He won't be nervous for sure. He's always getting the last place in his entire school all year long. What's there to be nervous about." Hu Zi muttered softly by Auntie Mei's side. There was quite a large number of people that shifted their gaze upon Ye Lingchen subconsciously on the school bus.

Xu Zhen had a rather awkward expression. "Xiao Mei, your Hu Zi has always scored well in the examination. I'm sure that he's going to score well in this college entrance examination too."

"He's only on a normal level I guess. He only scored 600 points in the third mock examination. He is only considered an average student." Auntie Mei spoke courteously but there was a pride that could not be concealed in her voice.

"Six hundred points! I think the grade cut-off point for the previous year is only 506 points. If your son does well in this examination, perhaps he can get into elite or first-tier university!" Someone immediately said that on the bus.

"The third mock examination is supposed to be difficult this time. 600 points is already very impressive!"

"That's right. Your son is truly impressive. I'll be thanking heaven and earth if my son can get into first-tier university!"

"I'm worried about my daughter feeling nervous. If she is capable of expressing her true abilities, it shouldn't be much of a problem for her to get into a first-tier university."

Children's achievement would always be a topic of conversation for the parents. The parents were immediately be engaged in a heated discussion on the school bus. Next, they began discussing about their children's performance in the usual examinations. At last, they began discussing the varieties of universities and the specialized fields of study available.

There was only Xu Zhen that sat over there with a dim expression. She played the role of a listener quietly.

She found that she was truly incapable of discussing Ye Lingchen's performance.
