Chapter 578 - 574: Chen Sandan Is a Little Scared
Chen JianShe was a little dumbfounded.
’My sister-in-law took the exam, too?’
"Then I’m not kneeling anymore. My sister-in-law will definitely pass and become a teacher."
Chen JianShe used to only idolize Leng Yuan, but now he idolized both Leng Yuan and Gu Jiaojiao.
In his eyes, his sister-in-law was no ordinary person. She was incredible.
Take her face soap and skincare products, for instance. A single set could sell for two hundred yuan. His entire family’s annual income wasn’t even two hundred, but his sister-in-law could make that with just one set.
’For someone that amazing, wouldn’t passing the exam to be a teacher be simple?’
In Chen JianShe’s eyes, it would be a waste of his sister-in-law’s talent for her to just be a teacher.
Seeing his confident expression, Yun Hao sneered. "The questions on this exam were extremely difficult, yet Gu Jiaojiao turned in her paper just twenty minutes after it started. Do you really think she could have passed?"
"If you don’t believe me, just ask Chen Ruoyu how hard the questions were this year."
Chen JianShe looked toward Chen Ruoyu.
On this, Chen Ruoyu couldn’t lie. "They were quite difficult."
The test covered a wide range of topics.
Since it was an education exam, besides requiring a solid foundation in language arts and math, there were also many open-ended questions. These touched on a lot of different subjects, with questions about classic literature and even some physics problems. Chen Ruoyu had never even read some of the books mentioned.
As for the physics, that was even worse; she barely wrote anything for those questions.
After Chen Ruoyu finished speaking, the crowd also asked the other educated youth who had come along, and all of them agreed that the questions were difficult.
Hearing this, the crowd was now almost certain: Gu Jiaojiao had definitely failed.
Others had run out of time with many questions still unanswered. No matter how brilliant Gu Jiaojiao was, finishing in just twenty minutes? There was no way she could have passed!
But Chen JianShe remained steadfast, convinced that Gu Jiaojiao could pass.
Everyone looked at him as if he were a fool.
Yun Hao, however, was in no hurry.
Some people won’t give up until they’re faced with the bitter end. Fine. He would just wait and see whether Gu Jiaojiao had passed or not.
The moment Chen Ruoyu mentioned that Gu Jiaojiao had also taken the exam, someone had run off to get her.
However, when they knocked, only her two children were home. When asked where Gu Jiaojiao had gone, the kids wouldn’t say.
Now, all they could do was wait.
They lost track of how long they waited. The sun was already beginning to set in the west when they finally saw Chen Sandan walking toward them from a distance, backpack on and getting closer with every step.
Instantly, everyone’s intense gazes fixed upon him.
Chen Sandan was walking with his head down when he suddenly felt something wasn’t right. He looked up to see a huge crowd of people staring intently at him.
The intensity of their stares made Chen Sandan jump.
He immediately started wracking his brain. ’Did I get into mischief? Did I do something wrong?’
But after thinking it over, he couldn’t come up with anything. It was only the first day of school, and he had been on his best behavior!
But being stared at by so many people, he found himself too scared to take another step.
Chen JianShe turned, saw Chen Sandan, his second uncle’s son, and managed a stiff smile. "Sandan, school’s out?"
Chen Sandan was speechless. ’I’m standing here with my backpack on. Isn’t it obvious?’
But with so many pairs of eyes fixed on him, he still nodded obediently.
"Yep! School’s out."
Chen JianShe nodded, but just as he was about to ask about the new teacher, an aunty from the crowd beat him to it.
"Sandan, hurry and tell Auntie, did Gu Jiaojiao come to your school to be a teacher?"
Chen Sandan didn’t know what was happening, but he saw the crowd’s stares grow even more intense.
Chen Sandan: "..."
For a moment, he was so scared he didn’t dare to speak.
"Spit it out, kid!"
An old woman, leaning on her cane and eager for the latest gossip, stamped her foot on the ground impatiently.
Before Chen Sandan could answer, a whole group of children came running up from behind.
Now, they were no longer limited to asking just Chen Sandan.
