The following time passed quickly, appearing like a white horse leaping over a gap.

On June 25th, the Gaokao results were freshly released. In an instant, they pulled at the hearts of countless families.

[System Notification: Gaokao Results Released]

[Student: Jiang Qin]

[Score: 653]

[Status: 985 University Admission Guaranteed]

The score for Jiang Qin was exactly the same as in his previous life. A 985 university was definitely secured. It could be said there was no suspense at all. He was extremely calm inside, but he had to act sufficiently excited in front of his parents. This really tested his acting skills.

However, Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Yuan were truly excited.

653! 

This score was twenty points higher than when Jiang Qin took the mock exams.

Mrs. Yuan Youqin immediately went to Baiyun Mountain. She went to Baiyun Temple to burn incense and fulfill her vow.

Comrade Jiang Zhenghong was so happy he became frantic. He could not sit or stand. His two hands were clenched into fists and kept shaking. Finally, he pulled Jiang Qin downstairs and ran three full laps around the community.

Jiang Qin understood the feelings of his parents. In the hearts of their generation, the Gaokao was a springboard for success. It was a major turning point in life. It was the only chance to change one's fate and a stepping stone to prosperity.

But he definitely could not imagine that in a few years, the world would be filled with doctors. Masters students would be as common as dogs.

Three days after the Gaokao results were announced, the matter of demolition began to show progress.

On the morning of June 28th, the neighborhood offices of Fanhuali, Chengdu, Happy Community, and Fortune Community called Jiang Qin one after another. They briefly stated the demolition situation. They invited him to the specially established demolition group for negotiations.

[Quest Update: Demolition Negotiations]

[Status: Confirmed]

Although the official demolition documents had not been publicized yet, the matter was basically set in stone.

To save time, the various streets covered by the Old City Renovation project began to make preparations in advance.

This was not something that was widely announced.

In fact, other than the owners of the houses to be demolished, other people did not know about this at all. This saved Jiang Qin, with his status as a high school student, a lot of trouble.

In the following days, Jiang Qin kept traveling between the various neighborhood offices. He listened to them read high-level documents. He listened to the compensation terms many times.

Although the things discussed in every street were repetitive, listening to it once felt good every time.

After the official demolition letter was issued, the demolition work entered the negotiation stage.

This stage was almost the most time-consuming. There were many greedy people. This was especially true for residents who had lived in old, broken, and small houses for many years. Their lives were not satisfactory to begin with, so they wanted to hike up the price. The more they asked for, the better.

But Jiang Qin was a person who knew when to stop.

He directly followed the highest ratio estimated previously. He gave the neighborhood office a number and told them to call him if they agreed.

There was an important reason why he was so laid back. When the demolition work entered the second step, the people who signed the contract first could have priority in choosing resettlement houses. Picking a good location was much more important than grinding for an extra three or five myriads here.

If one waited until the end, all the good locations would be picked. What would the remaining people do if they did not want what was left?

I am sorry, but you can only draw lots.

The contract was already signed anyway. No one would serve these ancestors anymore.

In addition, he had an urgent reason.

He had to return the money.

Although the money to buy the houses was borrowed from Feng Nanshu, this money belonged to her father. The fact that nothing had happened until now meant her father had not discovered it yet. But the longer it was delayed, the higher the risk became. Jiang Qin did not know what kind of person the father of Feng Nanshu was. He was unwilling to take that risk.

He wanted to get the compensation money early and fill the gap early. Then this matter could be as if it never happened.

After handling the early matters of the demolition, Jiang Qin had a day of leisure. He lay at home replying to various QQ messages.

Guo Zihang said he scored 472. Feng Nanshu said she scored 671.

It was not surprising that Guo Zihang got this score. This guy was at this level. It was hard for him to get even one more point. But as a genius girl and a top student, it was quite surprising that Feng Nanshu did not pass seven hundred.

The class teacher of Class One was also very dissatisfied with this score. He felt it must be a wrong judgment. So on the day the results came out, he went to the city to check the exam papers.

The result was that there was indeed no wrong judgment. It was indeed 671 points. The problem was with the Chinese essay topic. For an essay with a full score of sixty points, Feng Nanshu only got twelve points.

What was the essay topic this year?

Jiang Qin had been reborn. He had almost forgotten this memory. So he specifically checked the internet. The result made him laugh until he doubled over.

It was actually to write about friendship?

She did not even have friends. How could you make her write about friendship?

Was this not the same as asking a mouse to write a review about petting a cat?

It was not a loss. Twelve points was really not a loss. He estimated this score was only given because the paper was neat.

"Do not laugh anymore."

On the second floor of the Jizhou City Library, Feng Nanshu sat in her familiar position. She looked completely hopeless. "I thought about it seriously. This matter is actually your fault."

Jiang Qin had a face full of question marks. "We did not even know each other during the Gaokao. What does your loss of points have to do with me?"

"But if I had known you earlier, then I should have known how to write it."

"Since you put it that way, let us make a hypothesis. If the person taking the Gaokao was the current you, how would you write this essay?"

Feng Nanshu looked up with a serious expression. "I met a friend in the library. He is a poor, pitiful person who loves looking at chests..."

"Stop!" (Instant Cancellation!).

Jiang Qin directly interrupted her improvised essay. "Is this the image I have in your heart?"

"Is it not...?" (Confusion). A trace of daze flashed in the eyes of Feng Nanshu.

"If you really wrote it like that, you would not even get the final twelve points."

Feng Nanshu lowered her head. She returned to her hopeless state. "Have I made a friend who cannot be shown to others?"

The corners of the mouth of Jiang Qin twitched. "Anyway, the exam is already over. It is useless to think about these things now."

"That makes sense..."

"Why does a young lady from a rich family like you take the Gaokao? Would it not be better to just go study abroad?"

Feng Nanshu looked up. Her slender and curled eyelashes trembled slightly. "A lonely girl who cannot socialize will die if you send her abroad."

"..."

Jiang Qin truly had not thought of this point. He had simply treated her as an ordinary wealthy daughter. But if he considered it from the perspective of Feng Nanshu, studying abroad was indeed very dangerous.

Foreign countries promoted freedom and democracy all day, but the social atmosphere was extremely chaotic. There was also the "Free America" where shootings happened every day. The population was only 370 million, but the number of registered guns reached 390 million. On average, a family of three could have four guns. Were they planning to have a second child?

Throwing a girl like Feng Nanshu, who was naturally dazed and had social anxiety, into that kind of environment was like throwing a small lamb into a pack of wolves.

"It does not matter. Actually, domestic universities are also quite good. Which one do you plan to go to?"

"Then which one are you going to?"

She asked back without any expression. Her thick eyelashes were dyed golden by the scattered sunlight.
