One after another, the results of the mid-term exams came back.
In the span of one day, Hu Jiaojiao suffered a series of setbacks. She became emotionally and physically exhausted. All her hopes were turned to dust.
"Why did I fail again? The worst thing is that I got 59 in Chemistry! 59! Why couldn't the chemistry teacher have given me one more mark as consolation? Just give me an extra mark in the harder questions that I attempted… I was just one mark away from passing!"
What's even more devastating than failing in an exam was missing a pass by one mark!
Hu Jiaojiao turned her head around to look at Jian Yiling's chemistry paper. She saw three bright numbers.
100.
One hundred! It was a perfect score!
Hu Jiaojiao was dumbfounded.
She picked up Jian Yiling's paper again. She repeatedly checked the number. Over and over again.
It was really a perfect score. Not a single mark was deducted. Even the last question was correct!
