Chapter 253: Chapter 253: A Narrow Miss by One Point

Five minutes had flown by, and the moment the results were published, the network crashed outright.

All the candidates surged online, causing the system to freeze.

This was a phenomenon that happened every year. Ruan Shushu kept trying to log in, yet the system kept indicating that it was busy, making her so anxious that her palms sweated.

Xia Weibao hadn’t experienced the college entrance examination, so she couldn’t understand her nervousness.

She could only comfort her from the side, “Shushu, take your time, it doesn’t matter if you check later.”

Ruan Shushu gave her a smile, wiped the sweat from her palms, and continued.

It wasn’t until an hour later that, with a nervous heart, she finally saw her scores.

When she saw that her arts scores were twenty points above the admission score line for Imperial City University, she breathed a sigh of relief.

However, seeing that her cultural scores fell one point short of the admission score line for Imperial City University, she felt as if struck by lightning!

Why… why would this happen.

A difference of a single point was like the difference between heaven and earth.

Seeing that she was completely dumbstruck, Xia Weibao was a bit confused, “Shushu, what’s wrong?”

Ruan Shushu mechanically turned her head, her unfocused gaze falling on Xia Weibao’s face.

Then, tears blurred her entire eyes.

She lunged forward, hugging Xia Weibao and bursting into loud sobs, “Baby…”

The scores were out, and soon, the campus network, various major education websites, and media outlets began overwhelmingly reporting this year’s college entrance examination news.

That included the announcement of the top scorers from various provinces and cities.

And the one that caused the most sensation was Ruan Shushu.

Top scorer in the arts!

The admission score line for Imperial City University was very high, far exceeding that of other key universities by more than thirty points!

And her arts scores surpassed the admission score line of Imperial City University by twenty points, which could be said to be quite a terrifying score.

Yet, tragically, with her cultural scores one point short, she missed out on Imperial City University and could only aim for ordinary key universities.

It was heart-wrenching.

Ruan Shushu cried for a whole day, her heart torn apart.

How could this happen, she had checked her paper, surely the estimated scores weren’t like this, why did it turn out this way.

Unwilling to accept it, she had Sister Tong check the scores, and they were correct.

This only deepened her despair.

If she had never attained it, she wouldn’t be so disappointed.

But her arts score, that was the score of the top scorer!

Yet, due to her cultural score not meeting the standard, she lost her dream of Imperial City University, how could she accept that!

In a place like Imperial City University, where academic prodigies were as common as dogs and geniuses were everywhere, even if she was the top scorer in arts, she would not be given exceptional admission.

Xia Weibao stayed with Ruan Shushu the whole afternoon, only leaving at six o’clock in the evening.

Having not experienced the college entrance examination herself, she knew how important such an examination could be for an ordinary person’s life turning point.

Such a pity.

When Xia Weibao got home, Lu Hualiang had not yet returned from work.

She had timed it perfectly.

As a divine doctor, her understanding of medicines was profound; she knew exactly when the symptoms from the medicine she took in the morning to feign illness would start, when her body would begin to show discomfort—it was all in her calculations.

As soon as she lay down in her room, she began to feel dizzy and feverish.

Additionally, feeling upset on behalf of Ruan Shushu, she succeeded splendidly in pretending to be sick.

When Lu Hualiang came home, he didn’t see her downstairs.

He frowned; usually, she would definitely be sitting in the living room playing games when she got home.

He went upstairs and knocked on the guest room’s door, but there was no response.

Lu Hualiang took out the key and directly opened the door.

He saw Xia Weibao lying on the bed, covered tightly with a blanket, her little face deathly pale.
