Chapter 202: Dong Mingming was itching to find out how the two did. (1)

Dong Mingming did not feel well after hearing what Gu Xi had said.

Wait, what? Gu Xi was bet bet betting on Sheng Xiuyan??

Nevermind that she was betting on him; and she placed so much bet on him.

Did that mean Gu Xi was not confident in herself??

Thinking of that, Dong Mingming suddenly let out and loud and desperate groan. I am done for

She had wagered five 5.3 and one Top Students. If she lost, applying the current payout of 1.2x, she would receive five 5.3 and five Complete Solutions, and two Top Students!

Per the rules, she would need to complete all of them within one semester. There was no way she could complete them all in the amount of time allotted, not even to save her own life!

Looking at Gu Xi, Dong Mingming finally turned away in despair.

Gu Xi find Dong Mingmings reactions comical.

She didnt know what Dong Mingming reacted the way she did earlier, but she had since figured it out from what she was grumbling about.

Seeing the look on Dong Mingming, Gu Xi felt a little bad. She patted her on her shoulder and said, Dont worry too much lah.

Gu Xi gave Dong Mingming a comforting smile when Dong Mingming looked over at her and added, I might not necessarily score lower than him.

Dong Mingming, Then why did you wager so heavily on Sheng Xiuyan?

With the amount that Gu Xi had wagered, if she lost, she would have to complete

These twos attitude made the entire class more serious about preparing for the upcoming examinations.

Naturally, more and more people wagered and more and more excited everyone was getting.

It was finally the HSAUs monthly examinations time amidst the exciting tension.

Gu Xi was quite calm on the day of. Dong Mingming, on the other hand, was way more nervous than her.

Gu Xi, this is your first monthly examination at HSAU but there is no need to be nervous, okay? Just do your best and perform as usual, alright? said Dong Mingming nervously to Gu Xi as she patted Gu Xi on both of her shoulders.

If you run into any questions that you are not certain about, just pick a random answer and move on for the time being, alright? Dont spend too much time on it or leave it blank, okay?

Oh, right. Did you bring with you pencils, ruler, erasers?

Gu Xi nodded. She was just about to say yes, when Dong Mingming pulled out a bag of stationaries and handed it over to her. I had two sets prepared. This set is for you.

Gu Xi wasnt sure what to make of that. I brought my own.

Its fine. You can have too many of them! Pausing, Dong Mingming pointed at a small piece of red cloth on the outside of the stationary bag and a yellow cloth charm on the zipper and said, I got this one specifically for you online. It was consecrated at the Temple of Confucius for good grades. Then there is this one. This one I got from the Shaolin Temple online, consecrated by the abbot himself for smooth sailing. Both are very effective. For certain you will take #1 place having both of these on you.

Gu Xis deskmate had done everything that she could within her power to make sure that Gu Xi could take the #1 spot.

Gu Xis lips twitched as she listened to Dong Mingming. But, the concerned look on Dong Mingming convinced Gu Xi to not tell her that the red cloth that was allegedly consecrated was probably faked. And whether the charm was consecrated was very questionable.

Alright, alright. I will do my best. Gu Xi took the consecrated stationary bag from Dong Mingming, patted her on her shoulder, and said, Its almost time. Go to your seat now. Good luck to you too.
