Chapter 93: Turning in the Exam Early, Making Witty Remarks!

Just as they got out of the car, Xia Shiyu saw Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan heading to the exam hall.

She hurriedly called out, “Su Lin, Xiaowan, why are you going in already? Wait for me~!” Saying so, Xia Shiyu rushed towards Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan, completely oblivious to Lin Guoqiang and Su Zhenguo standing nearby.

“Su Zhenguo, this is the son you’ve raised? Clinging to my Xiaowan isn’t enough, he’s even ambiguous with other girls. Humph! Such a philanderer with a chaotic private life is not someone our Xiaowan would like,” Lin Guoqiang said angrily.

“Hehe~! Mayor Lin, as far as I know, our Su Lin and your Xiaowan are quite close friends. As for who likes whom, who knows? Maybe in the future, we could even become in-laws,” Su Zhenguo replied cheerfully.

Whether it was Xia Shiyu or Lin Xiaowan, both had great looks, which Su Zhenguo was quite satisfied with. Who to choose was not his concern; it should be up to Su Lin.

“Who wants to become in-laws with you? Dream on,” Lin Guoqiang retorted and left abruptly.

Watching Lin Guoqiang drive away, Su Zhenguo chuckled, “Unexpected, but interesting.”

Elsewhere, Xia Shiyu caught up with Lin Xiaowan and Su Lin, “Su Lin, Xiaowan, didn’t you hear me calling?”

“We heard, Xiaoyu.”

“You heard but still didn’t wait for me~!!”

“Cough, cough, Xiaoyu, it’s not that Xiaowan and I didn’t want to wait. It’s just that the atmosphere back there was a bit intimidating. I felt if we didn’t leave then, Xiaowan’s dad might have eaten me alive,” Su Lin said helplessly.

“Ah~! Xiaowan’s dad came too?”

“Not only that, Su Lin’s dad also came. Did you see him in white clothes when you came in, Xiaoyu?”

Xia Shiyu shook her head, “I was in a hurry chasing you guys, didn’t notice.”

Su Lin chuckled, “Just an old man, nothing much to see. Let’s go to the exam hall. Xiaoyu, Xiaowan, our exam rooms are different, so we might not meet later. Shall we leave separately and meet outside the school?”

Lin Xiaowan hesitated a bit before saying, “Let’s go back home first. My dad said he’d pick me up. If he doesn’t come, his driver will.”

“Then let’s head home. Xiaoyu, do you need a ride with me?”

The reporter, a bit excited by Su Lin’s response, asked, “Does that mean you found this year’s Chinese exam too easy?”

Su Lin nodded, “Honestly, none of the questions piqued my interest, so I finished them quickly.”

“Since you found the exam easy, you must have done very well, right?”

Su Lin shook his head seriously, “I can’t be 100% sure about scoring full marks in Chinese, but I am confident I scored above 140.”

The surrounding parents were astonished. Scoring above 140 in Chinese was extremely challenging, as they all knew from their own school days.

“140? That’s an excellent score!”

Su Lin seriously shook his head again, “140 is actually the worst score I expect to get.”

The reporter was momentarily stunned by Su Lin’s confidence, “So, you are implying that your scores in other subjects are even better?”

Despite her internal criticisms, the reporter maintained her smile. She thought this interview would make for great evening news, especially if Su Lin failed to live up to his claims.

She continued to probe, “From what you say, it seems you’re confident about your results. Surely, getting into Qingmu or Didu University won’t be a problem, right?”

Su Lin shook his head, “Sorry, I am not planning to go to either of those universities.”

“Not going to Qingmu or Didu? Why not?”

Su Lin shrugged, “They are too far away. The smog in Didu is severe, and I don’t like it! But the main reason is... well, never mind... I need to go home for lunch. Miss Reporter, is there anything else you want to ask? If not, I’ll be leaving.”

Before the reporter could respond, Su Lin left. The reporter, frustrated, stomped her foot. “What’s the most important reason he’s not saying?”

“Which school is this kid from? He’s so arrogant, not even considering Qingmu or Didu.”

“He has good grades and can choose any university in the country. What does it matter if he doesn’t go to Qingmu or Didu?”

“Yes, but I still want to know what the most important reason is?”

“I guess the most important reason might be that his scores aren’t good enough.”

The crowd of parents burst into laughter at this suggestion. The reporter turned to her cameraman, “Make sure this part gets added in.” The cameraman nodded silently.
