After snapping out of her daze, Song Wanqiu looked at her son with certainty in her eyes. “Ah Si, I don’t believe that this is your score. I really don’t believe it.”
Rong Si remained silent. He didn’t believe it either, but he had checked several times.
Could it be that I had filled in the answer sheet wrongly?
But I shouldn’t have. I had checked to make sure.
Just as he was thinking about it, Song Wanqiu grabbed his wrist. Her hand was unusually cold and her voice was trembling. “Ah Si, let’s go and check your test papers. Only when I see the test papers will I believe you. If we confirm you really did get this score after we check your test papers, then I’ll accept it.”
But for now, she refused to believe it.
Rong Si looked at her reddened eyes and nodded. “Okay.”
Song Wanqiu brought him to the city’s recruitment office to fill in the application form to review his score. When the staff member who received the two of them saw Rong Si’s name, his eyes flickered slightly. However, he pretended as if nothing had happened. “Alright, go home. When the review results are out, we will inform you.”
Song Wanqiu was stunned. “Wait for the results? Can’t we see the test paper?”
“Of course not! It’s regulation. If everyone says that they want to see their papers, with so many college entrance examination students in the country, won’t we be extremely busy?”
If they could not look at the test papers. What was the point of the review?
However, Song Wanqiu still held onto a glimmer of hope. “Then, I’ll have to trouble you guys to help us review it.”
“Got it.”
“When will the results be out?” Song Wanqiu asked anxiously.
“Within a week, I think.”
A week was too long for Song Wanqiu. However, if these were the regulations, then there was nothing she could do about it. She could only say, “Alright. When the results are out, please inform us immediately.”
“Okay,” the staff member replied. After putting away the application form, he looked at Rong Si, then at Song Wanqiu, even taking a few more glances.
It had to be said that this boy’s mother was really beautiful. She did not look like a woman old enough to have a grown child at all. All the middle-aged women he had seen previously were basically faded old women with plump figures. They were not as delicate as this woman in front of him. Her skin was fair and supple, and she looked like she was only in her twenties.
She was also not wearing any makeup on her face. Such looks could be considered natural beauty.
Rong Si sensed the man’s gaze and frowned. He stood in front of Song Wanqiu.
Song Wanqiu sensed it too; she had lost count of how many times she had met that gaze. She pulled Rong Si away.
On the way, both of them were in a heavy mood and neither of them spoke. After a long while, Song Wanqiu finally said, “Ah Si…”
Rong Si came back to his senses. His eyes were dazed, and he looked like he had lost his soul. His face was still pale.
When she saw him like this, Song Wanqiu’s heart suddenly ached. “Ah Si, buck up. Mommy believes that you didn’t get that kind of score. Something must have gone wrong.” No matter what the problem is, Mommy will definitely find a way to solve it.
Rong Si didn’t say anything. In fact, he had a vague idea why this was happening, but he didn’t say it out loud because it was ridiculous.
However, he had predicted the results of the review, and if he was right, then his suspicions were most likely true.
A week after they returned home, Song Wanqiu felt as though she was still living in an abyss of suffering.
Seeing that Rong Si remained silent, she knew that he was feeling the same.
