He asked, "What's the name of the city's top scorer? Which school did they come from?"
Ma Xiaohui tapped her chin and said, "Not sure about the school, Mom, but I heard from the lady next door that it seems to be... Xia Ye? Yes, that's the name, Xia Ye!"
Tian Ye paused for a second, stood up from his chair, took out his phone, and rapidly scrolled through WeChat—
Xia Yourong was turning herself into a tearful mess when she received a message from Tian Ye.
She, the school belle and top student of yesterday, had actually scored 599 points!
Earlier when she checked her results online, she was ranked 500th in the city. She thought being within the top 500 was still a category in itself, but just now, someone's scores must have been released; she was brutally knocked down a notch, ousted from the top 500 and becoming 501st...
When Xu Qing heard about her scores, he didn't say a word; he just went back to his room and never came out again.
