"Hm? What do you mean?"
Xu Fan put down his chopsticks, looking baffled at Guan Shimeng.
Guan Shimeng let out a sigh and said, "In a week, our grade will have a diagnostic exam. Any student whose performance isn't up to par will be dealt with by the school. The worst-case scenario could be direct expulsion unless a construction fee is paid to the school..."
This diagnostic exam was set by Tong Dacheng. As Zijing Middle School was a renowned elite institution in Jinling City, it had considerable expenses. Tong Dacheng's suggestion was immediately approved by the school board.
As for the parents, none of the students attending the school was from a family that couldn't afford the fee. As long as Zijing Middle School provided good services, they were willing to pay.
Given Chen Dongdong's grades, Guan Shimeng guessed it would be tough for him to pass this test, and it was unlikely Tong Dacheng would let him off the hook easily by just paying.
