Bai Zepei had a strong distaste for him. But there were so many people watching he could not lose his temper, so he replied with a cold face, "I'm sorry Uncle, I only have one pen. If I lend it to you, I can't take the exam myself. I'm poor indeed, what a laughable situation."
He thought Bai Yibo would leave after hearing that. However, Bai Yibo shamelessly continued, "Uncle, you have been trying to pass the exam for so many years. Now that you finally have a chance, and since I am still young, can't I just let you go first?"
Danliang Country valued filial piety. So, there was essentially nothing wrong with what he said. The examinees who didn't understand the Bai Family's situation all looked at Bai Zepei, as if he would violate the principles of Confucianism if he declined.
Bai Zepei frowned slightly. His uncle was indeed relentless, causing him trouble right before the exam.
