Chapter 101: A Giveaway Exam
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
‘A’ university’s exam tested entrants in three main categories: their mastery of Chinese medicinal herbs, their ability to adjust prescriptions based on a set ratio, and their fundamental grasp of Chinese medicine.
The first two were extremely easy for Qu Xiao. The only thing she needed to do was revise and memorise the theoretical knowledge again.
Qu Xiao, who had just returned from school, was in her bedroom, memorising everything she would need for the exam; her expression was serious.
Shang Yan drank in the sight of her hair as it cascaded in loose waves down her neck and shoulders. His heart clenched, and his mouth felt dry as he swallowed unconsciously.
He wheeled himself to the bathroom and rummaged in the drawer for a hairdryer. Afterwards, he rolled his wheelchair to Qu Xiao’s side, motioning for her to sit on his lap.
Shang Yan’s slender fingers gently threaded through Qu Xiao’s hair, twirling them playfully. Resting his head on her shoulder, he peered down at the 4-page paper scribbled with notes and asked, “Studying for an exam?”
Qu Xiao nodded. She was so focused that she did not notice Shang Yan’s hands twitching restlessly.
“Is that a table comparing the body’s acupuncture points?”
“Isn’t rote learning rather boring? Wouldn’t it be better if you practised a few sample exam questions? I’m sure that would help you remember better,” Shang Yan remarked brightly. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m
Qu Xiao turned around with a question on the tip of her tongue.
In the next second, her delicate red lips were caught in a passionate kiss.
The tip of Shang Yan’s tongue pried open Qu Xiao’s fruit-scented teeth and played with her fragrant tongue agilely.
A pair of scalding hands lifted the hem of Qu Xiao’s clothes, exploring the contours of her form. He kneaded her supple skin, eliciting muffled moans from her sweet lips. Shang Yan smiled proudly, “Now… What is the name of this acupoint?”
Qu Xiao frowned. She curled her slender legs around Shang Yan’s muscular waist, stealing the initiative as she pressed herself against him.
“Since you want to be my sample, you can’t move around as you wish!”
Qu Xiao conveniently picked up her pen from the bedside table and gently placed it on Shang Yan’s Adam’s apple, slowly sliding it downward.
Shang Yan narrowed his dark eyes. His breathing grew rapid, and he struggled to sit up, but he was powerless under Qu Xiao’s unforgiving hand.
Her pen drew a line down to his lower abdomen, stopping above his naval. Teasingly, Qu Xiao planted kisses tracing the line she had drawn, her curly hair bouncing as she repeated her actions. She felt a stirring in his loins and stopped. Like a cheeky fairy, she turned off the lights and whispered sweet promises to a night of merrymaking.
Qu Xiao woke up the next morning and felt a burning gaze beside her.
She turned her head and looked over. She found Shang Yan’s upper body naked, and he was staring at her with an inscrutable gaze.
“What are you planning?”
Qu Xiao subconsciously covered her chest. Seeing the strawberry-coloured marks all over her body, she shook her head, desperately trying to refute the evidence screaming at her.
Shang Yan grabbed her wrist and pulled Qu Xiao into his arms, continuing their unfinished business. Dawn might have arrived, but dusk was far from over.

Three days later, at the exam hall set up by the school…
Qu Xiao held two ballpoint pens in each of her hands and answered the questions on the exam paper at record speed, seemingly unperturbed by their difficulty. She was so fast that she finished the paper well before the allotted time expired and even submitted her papers in advance.
Qu Qi, and many others taking the exam, watched her exit the hall, feeling anxious.
“What is she pretending for? She doesn’t know how to do it; that’s why she handed in the papers in advance!”
“Why do I feel that this year’s exam questions are much more difficult than the previous years? Is it because the professors at ‘A’ university want to raise the bar?”
“The exam content is completely different from what I revised. Maybe I should have taken the college entrance exams more seriously…”
Qu Qi and her friends walked out of the exam hall, discussing the exam’s contents among themselves. They felt that something was not right.
It was not long before the university released the examinees’ results.
Qu Xiao ranked first with a full score. Results were open for public viewing, and anyone could see how each candidate scored on the internet.
“How is that possible!”
Qu Qi stood up abruptly, voicing the public’s dissatisfaction, “Qu Xiao! You must have gotten the exam questions ahead of time!”
Qu Xiao sat calmly in front of the desk, tilted her head, and stared at Qu Qi’s clown-like expression as she asked in return, “Are you questioning the professors of ‘A’ University? A panel of professors prepared the exam questions, and they were in charge of everything from the release of the paper to their distribution. No one could have possibly obtained the answers to the exam questions before we sat for the paper.”
“If you insist on your accusations, please provide evidence to substantiate your claims. Otherwise, your words are nothing more than the ravings of a jealous woman, or am I wrong?” Qu Xiao reposted sarcastically.
Qu Qi’s face flushed red. She stared at her score. It was the lowest of all the candidates who sat for the paper, causing her eyes to bulge, bloodshot. She clenched her fists and pressed them on the desk. Miss Zhang looked at Qu Xiao’s results and was exceptionally happy. Hoping to help Qu Xiao smooth things over, she said, “Let us all congratulate Qu Xiao for her outstanding achievement.”
“I hope everyone will learn from her example and achieve good results in the future.” With those words, Miss Zhang ended all further discussions in the classroom.
Qu Xiao looked at her phone. She had received a message from Shang Xinchen asking, “How’d you do?”
Qu Xiao replied indifferently, “Well, of course.”
She held the acceptance letter from ‘A’ university and thought of Shang Yan’s legs. She wanted to help him regain movement in his legs as soon as possible.

After classes concluded for the day, Qu Qi rushed out of school and cornered a pair of delinquents. “Are you sure that she passed the exam on her own?” she asked, staring down at the two punks.
They weighed the two wads of money in their hands and nodded. “The radio equipment nearby was blocked on the day of the exam. The examinees who bought the answers didn’t succeed. The results of this exam are all valid.”
“Huh. Aren’t you well informed?”
The delinquent wiped his lips against his sleeve, smiling evilly. “How about playing billiards with your two brothers?”
Qu Qi frowned, pushing them away. “Shut up!”
She rigged the exam in her favour, selling the question paper’s answers to her peers, yet she still failed to score better than the rest…
