Jiang Yu put down the pen in her hand and closed the paper in front of her. Then, she picked up the second paper and began to answer the questions within.
Jiang Zeyu: ???
He looked at the clock hanging on the podium and rubbed his eyes to make sure that he was not mistaken.
It had only been less than 40 minutes, and his little sister was already working on the second paper?
Was she really going to complete both sets of questions in one sitting?
Jiang Zeyu pinched the spot between his eyebrows. He hadn’t believed what Jiang Yu had told him before when they were entering the examination room.
No, it should be said that he had never believed what his little sister had told him from the beginning.
Now, Jiang Zeyu had a feeling that his opinion of his little sister might have been inaccurate.
At the podium, Cheng Maoshi’s expression was also very complicated.
He subconsciously gripped his thermos cup. As he inspected the examination room, he couldn’t help but look at Jiang Yu.
This girl named Jiang Yu had answered the questions very quickly. It has only been a little over an hour and she has already finished both sets of papers. Is she closing the papers and lying down?
Only when the bell rang at the end of the exam did Jiang Yu slowly wake up.
She handed over both papers at the podium, yawned, and left.
…
In the dining hall.
Ji Churan poured out a bowl of chicken soup for Jiang Yu and said in a light tone, “The first exam has ended. Xiao Yu’er, you must be exhausted. This is the chicken soup I made for you. Please try it. Does it taste good?”
Jiang Yu took a whiff of the soup. It smelled so good.
“It tastes great.”
Ji Churan couldn’t help but laugh. “You haven’t even tasted it yet and you’re already praising it. Aren’t you giving me too much credit?”
Jiang Yu: “The name of this soup gave it away.”
Ji Churan: “?”
Jiang Yu said solemnly, “Its name is ‘delicious chicken soup’.”
Ji Churan: “Pfft.”
After she had stopped laughing, Ji Churan said, “Xiao Yu’er, you flatter me too much.”
“It’s because your cooking skills are really good.” When it came to food, Jiang Yu has never been stingy with her compliments, especially when it came to speaking directly to the chef.
Compliments gave people confidence.
Confidence made people improve.
Jiang Yu said sincerely, “It’s really, really good.”
“Alright, alright, stop praising me. Hurry up and drink it, or it’ll get cold.”
Ji Churan pushed the chicken soup toward Jiang Yu and poked her cheek with her finger. She said in a low voice, “I’ll make fish soup for you tomorrow…”
Jiang Yu, as she drank the fragrant chicken soup, was already playing in her mind the fantasy of how delicious Ji Churan’s fish soup would be tomorrow…
However, she was suddenly interrupted by something.
The weather had been a little chilly recently, thus Ji Churan was wearing something long-sleeved. When Ji Churan had poked her cheek with a finger, she had raised her hand and her sleeve had slid down, revealing a few red marks on her forearm.
Jiang Yu’s gaze turned dark.
Sensing Jiang Yu’s gaze on her forearm, Ji Churan suddenly realized something.
She put down her hand and pulled her sleeve in an attempt to hide the marks. Her shoulders shrunk back and she laughed warily, “It’s getting a little cold. I should wear an extra layer of clothes tomorrow.”
Jiang Yu turned around and drank her chicken soup without saying another word.
…
During the afternoon exam, Jiang Yu raised her hand and again requested to answer two sets of papers at the same time.
Cheng Maoshi had already gone through this line of questioning with her once, so it wouldn’t be right to reject her the second time around.
He had even prepared himself and handed the alternate papers to Jiang Yu.
Just like in the morning, Jiang Yu had half an hour left after answering two sets of papers. She laid down for her nap.
