“Why do you say that?” Jiang Mixia was puzzled. “Isn’t this person publicly claiming before the results are out that you’ve achieved the top spot, essentially putting you on the spot?”
“But if I do end up achieving the top spot, isn’t this person celebrating for me today, spending all that money, like adding the final touch of beauty, and saving us a significant sum?” Song Jingyun chuckled.
Jiang Mixia paused, realizing the validity of his words.
Yet, can her husband truly secure the top spot?
Despite his impressive knowledge and good luck, winning the top spot in the provincial exams isn’t an easy feat.
However, considering her husband’s confidence, it might be a good thing after all.
As Song Jingyun didn’t view this situation as negative, Jiang Mixia didn’t feel compelled to dig deeper into who might be behind this plot.
As Jiang Mixia and Song Jingyun chose to remain silent, the absurd drama temporarily came to a halt.
However, despite their silence, the anxious exam candidates eagerly awaiting the exam results couldn’t help but occasionally bring up the topic.
For all the candidates, confidence in the provincial exams was lacking. Even those who were confident didn’t want to appear overly proud, as it could harm their reputation. Hence, they maintained a humble demeanor.
Therefore, seeing Song Jingyun boast so boldly about potentially achieving the top spot was met with disdain.
“Song Jingyun truly loves to boast. There’s not a hint of the exam results yet, and he’s already spreading the word.”
“Not only is he talking about it, but he’s even distributing lucky money.”
“The real fear is if, after the results are out, he’s not even on the list, let alone the top spot. It would be a huge embarrassment after all his bragging.”
“People are afraid of embarrassment, but at least he has had his past glory and received many compliments, so it’s not a total loss.”
“Well, don’t be so definitive. What if Song Jingyun actually does achieve the top spot? I was seated not far from him during the exam, and he never stopped writing. The exam topics must have suited him well.”
“If he truly possesses remarkable talent and skill, he would surely be humble and polite. Why would he boast like this? I believe Song Jingyun is just full of himself, not someone who focuses on studying diligently or possesses exceptional skills.”
“That’s a misconception. I believe that since Song Jingyun is speaking out like this, there must be a reason behind it…”
“What reason could there be, except for seeking attention and praise!”
Exam candidates, with nothing much to do while waiting for the results and feeling anxious, became increasingly engrossed in discussing Song Jingyun’s situation.
The intensity of this matter among the exam candidates did not wane from the day it began until the days leading up to the announcement of the results, with virtually no breaks in between.
Seeing this, Ruan Gaofei was delighted. The more heated the discussion, the more people would pay attention to the matter. By the day of the results announcement, there would be even more individuals focusing on Song Jingyun.
If Song Jingyun were to fall short when the results were revealed, he would undoubtedly become the talk of the town.
The thought of it was quite satisfying!
In the blink of an eye, the day of the results announcement arrived. In the early morning light, before the list was posted at the entrance of the examination hall, a large crowd had already gathered, making the entrance impassable.
