“You’d better sit down first!” Gordon was feeling rather weak and helpless about the situation. Abby did not sleep all night, so he stayed up and kept watch all night too.
“It’s here! It’s here!” Abby called out in agitation. Unlocking her phone, she logged in with Gordon’s candidate number and ID number to check on the results. The few minutes seemed unusually long.
“You got a total score of 732! Wow, you clinched third place in the entire city!” Abby shouted out in excitement.
Wow! That’s great!
Gordon took a deep breath and logged in Abby’s ID and candidate numbers while Abby’s eyes closed nervously. I have to pass the 600 mark; I must pass the 600 mark! Only then can I enter Woodsbury University, and only then can I, Gordon, and Janet, be together!
Not long after, a number popped up on the screen of the phone: ‘665’.
In his exhilaration, Gordon went up to hug Abby before murmuring softly in her ear, “665. You passed.”
Upon hearing his words, Abby was taken aback. For a long time, she couldn’t come back to her senses, and she stood frozen in place, repeating the number, “665?” Then, she raised her eyes to look at Gordon and shouted, “I passed!”
Gordon laughed lightly with his dazzling smile. “Yeah.”
“Oh my God! That’s awesome!” Abby hugged Gordon’s neck and kissed him several times on the cheek, saying, “Great, we can be together again!” Taken aback, Gordon then curved up the corners of his mouth. He was about to say something affectionate when suddenly, Abby seemed to remember something and calmly picked up her phone to make a call. “I’ll ask Janet what her score is!”
One second, two seconds… A long time passed, and Janet still did not answer the phone even after the call was automatically disconnected. A little disappointed, Abby was about to turn off the screen when the phone rang. It was Janet who had called back. As soon as she answered, Abby asked excitedly, “Janet, how many points did you get in the entrance exams?”
Startled, Janet slowly said in a casual tone, “I don’t know. I didn’t check.”
“Then hurry and go check it! Gordon and I have already found out! He came third, so maybe you’re in first place!” Abby could not hide her excitement. If Janet came first, it would be at least a score of 740 or more. She could not imagine such a high score. After all, the highest score in the previous college entrance exams was only 739.
“Oh, sure,” Janet answered carelessly, then hung up the phone and fell asleep again. There was no response from the other side for a long time. “Janet hung up!” Abby looked at Gordon with a dumbfounded expression. “Then forget it, we’ll contact her again when she wakes up!” Gordon reflexively patted the top of her head.
But Abby couldn’t wait to know Janet’s results. “Hey, I know her candidate number!” Abby remembered that she had seen Janet’s candidate number and ID card before. So, she entered the public system again to check Janet’s exam results, and her hands couldn’t help but tremble. “What’s going on? It keeps showing that the system is busy.”
Gordon smiled. “Well, that’s quite normal. After all, millions of candidates are getting their results today.”
Not long after, the webpage finally returned to normal. Abby clicked on Janet’s test results, and the results of each subject appeared on the screen.
Math: 150
Language: 150
English: 150
Science: 300
Abby stared in bewilderment for a long time at the screen, unable to react to such test results. What the hell? A perfect score of 750? She looked down at the last column and saw that Janet was ranked first in the city.
It took a few minutes for her to react. Smiling and waving her phone in her hand, she shrieked, “I can’t believe she got a perfect total score! She ranks first in the entire city!”
Janet even got a perfect score on her language test too! What’s going on here? What kind of essay did she write to get a perfect score? Even first-class writers won’t get full marks for their essays!
The corners of Gordon’s mouth curved up, but he was not really shocked. However, the full score in Janet’s language test did still surprise him. Is Janet somehow a famous author?
At this time, at the Jackson Residence, Megan looked at Emily and asked, “How many points did you get?”
