Xu Shan felt her despair. He was also very angry about Wei Gang’s actions. In his opinion, a man like Wei Gang wasn’t worthy of being a father. He married a woman, but was unfaithful. He gave birth to a daughter, but wasn’t responsible. He even made their lives so gloomy and depressing.

Fortunately, Wei Yan didn’t have any psychological problems because of this. She was very sensible and resilient. In comparison, her mother, Li Hai, seemed a little meek. Xu Shan decided to take more care of them in the future. At the very least, he had to ensure that Wei Gang wouldn’t continue to affect their lives.

Xu Shan gave a suggestion. “I heard that your grades are very good. It shouldn’t be a problem for you to get into a school in the city. With your grades, you should be able to get a scholarship. After this matter is over, you can bring your mother to the city to live. I’ve learned a little about your mother’s shop from my wife. I believe your business will be better if you move to the city. If you have any difficulties in your life, you can tell Zhou Yu and me at any time. We’ll try our best to help you.”

Wei Yan knew that he was being kind, so she said quickly, “Thank you.”

After Wei Yan and Li Hai finished their questioning, they could leave. As the two of them walked, Li Hai suddenly exclaimed, “Yanyan, are your high school entrance examination results coming out tomorrow?!”

Li Hai’s words pulled Wei Yan back to her senses.

Yes, the exam results were about to be announced.

Middle school entrance examination… seemed to be a very distant thing, and it was also the turning point of her fate in her previous life. She had gotten very good grades and could have a bright future, but because she had fallen in love with the scumbag Song Chen, she had become fat, and her grades had deteriorated. She hadn’t even been admitted to a single university. She was so smart and had such learning talent, but she had been forced to follow her mother’s path and open a shop to sell goods.

However, she foolishly gave all the money she earned to Song Chen and her half-brother, Wei Mu. As for herself, she died at the hands of these two people. It was so tragic.

Just thinking about it made Wei Yan’s heart ache. Why would she do such a stupid thing?

Now that the opportunity to change her fate was right in front of her, she just had to study hard and not think about anything else. She had to be resilient enough not be affected by anyone else.

Wei Yan said to Li Hai gently, “Yes, Mom. The rankings will be released tomorrow. Let’s go take a look together.”

Li Hai agreed. Because Wei Yan’s grades were about to be released, it lessened the impact of Wei Gang’s incident on her.

As Wei Gang was locked up now, Wei Gang definitely wouldn’t be able to come out for the time being, so the two of them went straight home. In this era, mobile phones didn’t exist in the county city. In fact, not everyone had landlines. Therefore, when the middle school examination results were out, everyone would bring their children to school to check their results.

The middle school examination wasn’t like the college entrance examination. After the examination, one had to fill in their school of choice. When the school released the students’ results, the cutoff scores required by the high school would be announced. If they reached this score, they could go to this school directly. If they were two to three points behind, they could spend some money to get a spot. However, if their scores were much worse, they could only be part-time students. They were not considered full-time students of this school. Moreover, the tuition would be a huge sum. Many students from ordinary families were unwilling to spend such a huge sum of money, which might be as much as their parents’ annual salary.

It was rare for Wei Yan to be this nervous. Her rebirth had always been an unforeseen event. She was afraid that other unforeseen events would happen, such as her scores changing.

When she fell asleep, it was already one in the morning. Li Hai woke Wei Yan up early. It was only seven o’clock when the two of them rushed to the school, but there were already many parents waiting anxiously at the school gate with their children.

As the school gate opened, everyone rushed into the school.

On a huge banner in the school, there was a poster made by the teachers. On it, there were the names and total scores of the top 100 students in the school. As for the students with lower grades, if they wanted to see the scores, they had to go to their respective classes. The form teacher would announce the students’ results.

Wei Yan was nervous and didn’t dare to look, but Li Hai suddenly grabbed her arm excitedly and said loudly, “Yanyan, your name is on it. You got first place!”
