The conversation abruptly halted as Cheng Yue hurriedly interrupted, “What are you talking about? No matter how important work is, it’s not as important as you. Besides, it’s already been delayed for so many days. It won’t make much difference now.’
Cheng Yi said, “Dad…”
“Alright, it’s time to set off.” Cheng Yue tidied up his watch while he turned around and asked someone to prepare the car. “The exam is about to start. Let’s hurry over.”
Cheng Yi had no choice but to take a deep breath and follow Cheng Yue out of the door with heavy steps, rushing to the examination hall.
Seated in the car, she felt as if she was on pins and needles. The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. If her act as a fake physics prodigy was exposed, how could she still have a foothold in Yin High School?
Her classmates would definitely look down on her, and the physics teacher would be disappointed.
Yan Hanxi might never like her again.
He Jing must be very proud.
She needed to come up with a solution.
She tried her best to think of a way.
She absolutely couldn’t go to this competition.
She couldn’t bear the consequences. She didn’t want to be exposed.
“Dad…”
Before she could utter a single word, Cheng Yue suddenly thought of something and sighed, “I’ve never sent Jingjing to the competition before. She always went alone.”
He wondered what she was thinking about in the car at that time.
She must be very, very sad.
Cheng Yi’s breathing quivered, and her eyelashes trembled as she shut her mouth.
The car began to maintain a dead silence.
Cheng Yue didn’t say a word to Cheng Yi until they reached the examination hall. When they got out of the car, he patted Cheng Yi’s head. “Xiao Yi, do your best. Daddy believes in you.”
Cheng Yi nodded silently. “I’ll do my best.”
At this moment, the sounds of other cars parking could be heard.
It turned out to be the luxury car that Yin High School sent the students to the examination hall. He Jing happened to be the first to get out of the car.
Cheng Yue was ecstatic to see He Jing. He wanted to go up and talk to He Jing, but He Jing walked into the examination hall as soon as she got out of the car without even glancing in Cheng Yue’s direction.
Cheng Yue’s heart sank instantly. He was extremely disappointed and didn’t notice that Cheng Yi had hugged his arm the moment He Jing got out of the car.
This successful intervention prevented any potential interaction between the two. Cheng Yi, who had suppressed her gloomy mood on the way, smiled happily, “Dad, I’m going in.”
Cheng Yue’s gaze was successfully shifted back to her. He patted her head again. “Alright, go ahead.”
When she stepped into the examination hall, Cheng Yi started to worry again. There were more than 30 people in the classroom, and there were also students from other schools. She was the only fake academic prodigy.
There were still five minutes before the exam started. How was she going to pass it?
Just as she made up her mind to leave the examination hall and find a place to stay for a while, a boy walked over and said.
“Student, are you lost? Let me take you there.”
Cheng Yi shook her head. Just as she was about to decline, the boy said enthusiastically, “I’m a student of this school. I was asked to stay by the teacher to volunteer.”
Cheng Yi was “forcefully” sent back into the examination hall.
She saw all the examinees in the examination hall looking at her with attention. Only He Jing’s gaze contained a hint of mockery.
Yan Hanxi didn’t sit with He Jing. Instead, he turned the 2B pencil on the answer sheet in boredom. Then, as if he had thought of something, he wrote a ball of paper and threw it at He Jing.
He Jing opened the paper ball and saw a scrawled smiley face on it, incredibly juvenile.
Five minutes later, the invigilator arrived. The invigilator was an elderly man who looked very serious. He Jing didn’t know him.
This shattered Cheng Yi’s last glimmer of hope. The invigilator wasn’t a member of Yin High School’s teaching staff.
In another two minutes, the papers were distributed, revealing a sea of unfamiliar physics questions. Cheng Yi knew that she was done for. This time, her charade was bound to unravel..
