How Terrifying!!!
As if she hadn’t said enough, Jin Li went on telling Feng Wu off. “Sir, this Feng Wu girl is so arrogant. She was very disrespectful toward His Royal Highness!”
Mr Lu didn’t know what to say.
He looked at Feng Wu and His Royal Highness in turn.
The principal of Imperial College was anything but dumb. Mr Lu had long seen through everything!
He began to suspect it when His Royal Highness picked on Feng Wu, but Feng Wu was able to turn things around after a single visit to the crown prince’s residence.
Then, this morning, this national exam had been postponed for Feng Wu!
When he asked what happened and when the exam could begin —
What did Feng tell him?
“Don’t ask. As for when to start, well, it’ll start when Miss Wu gets here.”
Miss Wu… as in Miss Feng Wu here, right? Mr Lu had to go to court and report to His Majesty just then.
He was only gone for a minute and little Feng Wu had been put through all this?
Mr Lu stole a glance at Jun Linyuan.
The crown prince, who never let his face betray anything, looked darker than a stormy day at the moment.
The more Jin Li said, the grimmer the look on His Royal Highness’s face…
Mr Lu didn’t need to ask another question.
He cut her off. “You fool!”
Jin Li was cracking up inwardly. “Hahahaha! Mr Lu just called Feng Wu a fool! Feng Wu is so dead!”
However, Jin Li was still gloating when Mr Lu waved his hand. “Take her down!”
Mr Lu was pointing at Jin Li, instead of Feng Wu or Chaoge.
Jin Li was dumbfounded. “What?! Mr Lu… Mr Lu…”
Imperial College had its own impressive guards!
Two guards showed up at the command and charged at Jin Li.
Jin Li looked shocked. “Why are you after me? Why me? Take Feng Wu down! She’s right there!”
At the same time…
Many looked at Mr Lu in astonishment.
That was right. Shouldn’t they be after Feng Wu? This had to be a mistake.
“Mr Lu! Why me?! Why —” Jin Li struggled violently.
Mr Lu stole another glance at Jun Linyuan and saw that the latter had cheered up a little… So, the female teacher had really pissed His Royal Highness off.
Mr Lu smirked. “Who told you that her exam permit was fake?”
WHAT?!
WHAT?!
WHAT?!
That statement shocked everyone!
“Did Mr Lu say that her exam permit isn’t fake?”
“Does that mean that Feng Wu’s exam permit is genuine?”
“But hers is red and ours are green.”
–
Meanwhile, Jin Li was even more confused!
Feng Wu’s exam permit was a real one?! No! It couldn’t be!
Jin Li stared at Mu Yaoyao in disbelief!
It was Mu Yaoyao who had given her the instruction to humiliate Feng Wu in front of everyone… Oh god, that exam permit was real? That meant, everything she had said and done was…
Chapter 594 Things Never Went As Planned
At that thought, Jin Li almost fainted…
She wasn’t the only one shocked.
Feng Liu, Lady Wang, Mrs Duan, Duan Chaoyue, Duan Chaoyin… and many others were all watching what was happening in disbelief.
That exam permit was legit?
Feng Wu really had an exam permit?!
“No, it can’t be! How can she have one?! She has no spiritual essence at all! She’s just a crip-”
An idea came to Jin Li all of a sudden!
She remembered the exemption rule of Imperial College!
“She got recommendations from three members of the education board?!”
That reminded everyone else.
That was right. If that exam permit was authentic, that was the only possibility!
“But… but it can’t be! Feng Wu is useless! How could she have persuaded three elders?! I don’t believe it!”
“Oh god, it just occurred to me. That exemption indeed comes with a red exam permit!”
“No way! Is Feng Wu that well-connected?”
“Maybe the bosses still see some hope in her and think that she can get her abilities back with a little push?”
“You know what? So what if Feng Wu has a real exam permit? Does she have spiritual essence?”
“You’re so right —”
Seeing that His Royal Highness was losing his patience, Mr Lu waved at the teachers. “What are you waiting for? Go back to your inspection.”
“Yes, of course —”
The inspection went on smoothly.
Soon, Feng Wu and Chaoge entered the exam hall.
Chaoge was displeased and kept grumbling. “How stupid can those people be? Would anyone trying to forge an exam permit make it red?”
Feng Wu chuckled. “What are you mumbling about there?”
Chaoge frowned. “I’m just pissed. Did we get insulted for nothing?”
Feng Wu smiled. “It won’t be for nothing.”
“Huh?” Chaoge looked at Feng Wu in bewilderment. “Xiao Wu, are you going to beat them up?”
“Let’s start with some face-slapping.”
“But how?”
“You’ll see.” Feng Wu found her seat according to the number on her exam permit.
The exam hall was actually an open space.
A hundred candidates were arranged in a ten-by-ten square.
Feng Wu sat in the first row of the fifth column.
And an invigilator sat right in front of her…
Feng Wu’s stomach sank!
Luckily, as the other exemption, Chaoge sat right next to her.
Chaoge’s seat was on Feng Wu’s right.
That was to say, Chaoge was the first in the sixth column.
Chaoge didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at the seating arrangement.
To their frustration, sitting in the first row, they were right under the invigilators’ noses.
The bright side was that they weren’t too far apart. At least they were still in the same exam hall.
Just then, Chaoge tugged at Feng Wu’s sleeve. “Xiao Wu… I…”
Feng Wu looked back at Chaoge, knowing perfectly well that Chaoge’s answers would be… hopeless.
Grand Secretary Fang suffered from the threat of a stroke every time he corrected Chaoge’s exam paper. It always took him a long time to calm down, and in the end, he just let Chaoge go out and play on her own.
Just then —
Other candidates began to enter the hall.
Each hall contained 100 candidates, but somehow, almost everyone Feng Wu knew was in this one.
Especially Duan Chaoyin, who sat right behind Feng Wu.
And Duan Chaoyue right behind Chaoge.
And…
