Ma Chengteng was doing somewhat better, whereas Ma Peng, upon hearing that he had ranked forty-eighth, couldn't believe it and asked, "Is it true? There hasn't been a mistake?" He had thought that ranking within the top hundred would already be quite good.
Ma Yuan said with a smile, "Eldest Young Master, it's absolutely true."
Ma Peng fainted.
At first, Ma Chengteng thought his son was pretending, but when the doctor arrived and said Ma Peng had fainted from being overly surprised, he realized that his son had indeed fainted from happiness.
Ma Chengteng didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
The doctor who had been called when Ma Peng fainted from excitement the last time he achieved success was the same doctor. As he administered acupuncture to Ma Peng, he said with a laugh, "Eldest Young Master is really lucky."
Ma Yuan was grinning like a Maitreya Buddha, "Indeed, our Eldest Young Master is extremely lucky, all thanks to the blessings of the Ma Family's ancestors."
