Ma’am You Have Been Uncovered

Panda Novel

“No.” Qin Ran raised an eyebrow when she heard this. She walked slowly down the stairs and said politely to Butler Cheng, “Today is the college entrance examination.”

Of course Butler Cheng knew that.

A few days ago, he had even asked for brain supplement recipes to be prepared for her.

But because of her hand injury, he had warned the people in the villa very solemnly not to mention the college entrance examination.

Hence, from her return yesterday to now, no one had said a single word about it.

Butler Cheng had noticed her carefree look and thought she had already forgotten about it. But who knew that she would mention it herself now?

“Oh, college examination, I know…” Butler Cheng replied. He glanced carefully at her. “So, Miss Qin, are you going to take the exam?”

Qin Ran nodded and walked over to the dining table, where Cheng Juan pulled out a chair for her to sit.

Butler Cheng went into the kitchen to bring out her breakfast.

After finishing his meal, Cheng Juan went to get her pencil case from the table. He put all the pens in, then leaned against the table to sharpen the pencils slowly. He turned to look at her. “Have you brought all your documents?”

“Yeah.” Qin Ran ate the last bite of egg and took out her admission pass as well as her ID card.

Cheng Juan took them and put them into the pencil case.

Cheng Mu and Shi Liming came back from their run and saw Cheng Juan sharpening the pencil seriously. Cheng Mu paused and asked, “Master Juan?”

Without looking up, Cheng Juan said simply, “Pack your things, we’re going to Yun Cheng First Middle School.”

“Oh.” Cheng Mu didn’t dare to ask further. He quickly took a shower, ate, and drove Qin Ran to Yun Cheng First Middle School for the exam.

**

Banners were drawn everywhere on the road in Yun Cheng, and the tense atmosphere of the exam was very strong.

This was especially so near the test site. A row of traffic policemen was on duty, and various vehicles even slowed down subconsciously when they passed by.

No one honked their car horn.

The usually noisy city was exceptionally quiet.

Cheng Mu and the others arrived an hour in advance. But even so, many people had already reached.

Yun Cheng First Middle School was the big test site. Cheng Mu finally found a parking spot and stopped the car.

Cheng Juan didn’t get off immediately.

The sun was shining brightly and the classroom didn’t have air conditioning.

Raising his hand, Cheng Juan glanced at the time on his watch. It was eight o’clock, an hour before the exam. He turned to look at Qin Ran. “Are you going in now, or waiting a little more?”

Qin Ran looked down at her phone and thought about it. “Qiao Sheng and Lin Siran are still outside, I’ll go look for them.”

Cheng Juan nodded and got out of the car first before walking to the other side and opening Qin Ran’s car door.

Standing at 1.8 meters tall, he stood out amongst the crowd.

At one glance, he saw Qiao Sheng and the others standing by the school gate.

“They’re over there.” He reached out and buttoned the black peaked cap on her head, then led her to the school gate.

There were many people walking to and fro. Due to the college entrance examination, students and parents alike were a little anxious, but only Cheng Juan walked unhurriedly.

He walked calmly, like ink flowing down a picture scroll, his eyebrows all the more outstanding under the gleaming sunlight.

Madam Qiao was giving instructions to Qiao Sheng when she saw them walking over out of the corner of her eye. She immediately paused and her expression evidently became more overcautious.

“Sister Ran, over here!” Qiao Sheng didn’t notice the change in his mother’s expression and just waved vigorously at Qin Ran.

After Cheng Juan and Qin Ran walked over, Qiao Sheng introduced them to Madam Qiao excitedly. “Mom, this is Sister Ran. I’ve told you about her.”

“Of course I remember.” Mother Qiao didn’t dare to look at Cheng Juan and just focused on Qin Ran. “I still have to thank you for helping this brat. He has made rapid progress…”

She paused when she saw Qin Ran’s left hand plastered in a cast.

Qiao Sheng had told her countless times that Qin Ran ranked first in the city in five subjects.

But instead of showing great pity in front of her, Mother Qiao just smiled. “You can find trouble for this brat anytime in the future. He has a thick skin and won’t die easily.”

As the time for the exam approached, they stopped talking and let the three candidates enter the exam room.

**

The college entrance examination was different from the general examination.

The invigilating system was very strict.

Each examinee had to go through a metal detector when entering the exam room. Qin Ran was in examination room 205 in Building A. When she reached, the door of the exam room was already open, and the invigilator was at the door with a detector in her hand.

Qin Ran passed the metal detector safely. There weren’t many seats left in the exam room, and she didn’t see anyone familiar.

The last two digits of her test number were 19. There was only one empty seat in the third row, so she walked over.

Behind her, a boy followed her in.

“Beep—” The alarm sounded.

The boy looked dumbfounded.

The invigilator calmly took out a pair of scissors and asked the boy to remove the metal zipper on his pants.

The boy looked down at his pants and was speechless.

On the morning of the 7th was the Chinese exam.

After getting the paper, Qin Ran glanced over it and estimated the difficulty of the test. It was very difficult, and most people would probably lose their minds after taking it.

It wasn’t convenient to use her left hand, so she pressed the answer sheet with her pencil case and wrote slowly on the paper. Her right hand wasn’t slow, but because she couldn’t press the paper with her left hand, it wasn’t particularly fast either.

It was really inconvenient to use one hand.

She finished writing her composition ten minutes before the bell rang.

No one in Qin Ran’s examination room turned in the paper in advance.

If the Chinese exam in the morning already made people suffer a breakdown, then when they got the Mathematics paper in the afternoon, there was only a teacher’s name in their mind—

Hou Delong.

Immediately after, only one thought reverberated in their minds—

They were goners.

This year’s Mathematic paper was exceptionally perverted. Some students ran out of the examination room crying before they even finished.

Waiting outside the gate holding a jar of sour plum soup, Butler Cheng watched as the students came out from time to time and hugged their parents while crying. Worried, he turned to look at Cheng Juan. “Young Master, how do you think Miss Qin is doing? I just heard those examinees say that the questions were very abnormal.”

1

While talking, he saw Qin Ran coming out of the school gate.

Her left hand was in a cast while her right hand held her pencil case.

She looked relaxed and not in the least bit stressed.

Butler Cheng was silent for a moment. Oh, I’ve forgotten. Miss Qin probably can’t feel the difficulty of the questions, right?

2

“How was it?” Cheng Juan handed her the sour plum soup.

She took a sip and squinted while replying modestly, “It was okay.”

Butler Cheng was speechless.

Miss Qin could really blow her own horn.

Butler Cheng felt like it was possible that Miss Qin never once felt upset over being unable to take the college entrance examination.

Really.

**

The Mathematics paper on the 7th was too abnormal.

Although the papers on the second day were also more difficult than usual, the candidates didn’t suffer as bad a mental breakdown as yesterday. At least no one suffered from a heart attack and had to find an ambulance.

After the English test in the afternoon, the silent class 3.9 suddenly became active.

They were all typing madly in their group chat.

He Wen: [We’ve been released @Qiao Sheng. What shall we do?]

Representative of the Biology class: [Liven things up! No one from class 3.9 can pull a no-show tonight!]

Xia Fei: [OJ, BK, where shall we meet?]

Qiao Sheng: [Wait a minute, I’ll ask Sister Ran.]

Everyone had finished the English test at almost the same time. But because of her inconvenient left hand, Qin Ran was very slow while filling the answer sheet. Furthermore, there were many multiple-choice questions in the English paper.

After she came out, Qiao Sheng and Lin Siran followed her.

“Sister Ran, do you want to meet the others?” Qiao Sheng didn’t dare to ask her how her exam was.

Without hesitating, she agreed.

Cheng Juan didn’t join the senior high school graduates’ gathering, but because he couldn’t stop worrying about Qin Ran’s hand, he let Butler Cheng follow her.

As for Cheng Mu…

He went with him to deal with the Meng family and Meng Xinran.

**

Class 3.9 set up two KTVs with large rooms, and they waited downstairs for Qiao Sheng, Qin Ran, and the others.

Butler Cheng thought that Qin Ran’s classmates were ordinary.

He followed behind her with a smile and greeted Xia Fei and the others. “Hello.”

That was until he saw Xu Yaoguang in the crowd.

Pausing, he felt a little surprised. As the butler of the Cheng family, he naturally knew a lot of things about the Xu family, but he didn’t expect that other than Elder Xu, his grandson would also come to school in Yun Cheng?

Xu Yaoguang also noticed Butler Cheng. His delicate eyebrows twitched, but he wasn’t too surprised.

“Wait…” The class president was about to pat Qin Ran’s shoulder. He wanted to not return without getting drunk tonight, but after looking down, he finally noticed that her left hand under her coat was plastered in a cast.

His expression changed. “Sister Ran, what happened to your left hand?!”

“It’s fine.” Qin Ran looked down and smiled casually. “I accidentally fractured my bone a few days ago.”

Class 3.9’s chuckle died down at this sentence and they fell into a sea of silence. Even Xu Yaoguang stared at Qin Ran in shock.

Butler Cheng hadn’t dared to mention her left-hand injury before, but he had also figured it out now.

It was indeed fine for her not to take the college entrance examination…

After all, it made little difference whether or not she did.

But after hearing that Miss Qin had injured her left hand, why were their reactions so big? It was as if they just lost a billion yuan?!
