Chapter 1777: Finding the Examination Pass

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

All the students in Qiao Mei’s class also came back to school voluntarily to help Qiao Mei search for her examination pass. Although they were jealous of Qiao Mei’s good results, it was undeniable that she was really capable. They were only jealous but they did not have any intention to harm her. Moreover, she had helped them with their schoolwork before. They could not bite the hand that fed them.

Huang Quan hid in the small woods and did not dare to make a sound. He did not expect this matter to escalate to this extent. He had gone to look for his younger cousin who was in the second year of Sixth High and asked him to find an opportunity to steal Qiao Mei’s examination pass. He wanted to put on a big show of “the hero saving the damsel in distress” and to appear with the pass in his hands. He was sure that Qiao Mei would be thankful to him for his efforts and agreed to marry him!

However, he had underestimated the power of Qiao Mei’s results and the influence of the Xia family. Xia Wen even found many friends to help him with the search outside the school. Qiao Mei also asked Yao Nian to go around the entire city. They were sure that they would find more clues before dawn broke.

In a panic, Huang Quan threw the examination pass to the ground and stomped on it a few times. Then, he picked it up and ran towards Qiao Mei.

“Miss Qiao! I’ve found your examination pass!” Huang Quan said excitedly as he held up Qiao Mei’s examination pass, which was now dirty and muddy.

Qiao Mei stared at Huang Quan for a while before shouting, “Eldest Brother!!!”

Xia Wen was so shocked to hear Qiao Mei yelling that he hurriedly ran towards her. Wu Duo, with the other three classmates, and a few teachers also ran towards her. They knew that she was pregnant and were worried about her falling down or hurting the baby while she was searching around. In an instant, Qiao Mei and Huang Quan were surrounded by people.

“What’s wrong? Are you alright?” Xia Wen asked as he looked at Qiao Mei nervously, without noticing that Huang Quan was standing at the side.

Qiao Mei pointed at the examination pass in Huang Quan t s hand and said,

“Eldest Brother, look, it’s my examination pass.”

Xia Wen looked at the dirtied examination pass and then at how Huang Quan looked like he was trying to claim credit. Qiao Mei must have a reason for

yelling out so loudly just now. This person was definitely not someone simple.

“Hello, I’m Qiao Mei’s eldest brother. May 1 ask where you found my sister’s examination pass?” Xia Wen asked.

“In the small woods over there. I’m part of the police team who maintains order around the examination hall. I heard that Qiao Mei lost her examination pass, so I came over to help,” Huang Quan said.

Qiao Mei snorted coldly. This person did not even know how to lie properly. The teachers had already searched all the places around the school, even the sewage pipes. They did not leave any stone unturned. How could Huang Quan have found it so coincidentally?

“Eldest Brother, he’s the person who wanted to buy my silver bangles in Lian City some time ago. He was with Tan Jing at that time and I rejected his request. After that, he kept chasing after me relentlessly and even wanted to use gold bangles to exchange for the silver ones. I couldn’t shake him off at all,” Qiao Mei said expressionlessly.

Wu Duo immediately said, “1 can bear witness that I have seen this person waiting for Qiao Mei in the neighborhood several times! All the neighbors around here can bear witness!”

Xia Wen raised his eyebrows and stared at Huang Quan. Qiao Mei had not told him about all these things previously. Before Xia Zhe left, he had asked him to take good care of Qiao Mei. He definitely could not go back on his word.

Furthermore, how did Huang Quan know Tan Jing? What was the relationship between this matter and Tan Jing? How did Huang Quan get hold of the examination pass?

Based on their initial hypothesis, if someone who was jealous of Qiao Niei’s results had stolen her examination pass, then the pass would definitely have been burned to ashes by now. It would be impossible for them to find it. If this person was here for the Xia family, then he would be using it to negotiate with the Xia family now.

It was definitely impossible for anyone to have simply picked it up inside the small woods, so this person must be the one who had stolen the examination pass.

“It’s because of my mother! My mother’s birthday is coming up and I especially like that pair of silver bangles. I want to buy them for my mother, so I wonder if your sister can let me have them,” Huang Quan quickly explained.

At the moment, he was the person who had helped Qiao Mei find her examination pass! She must be willing to part with a mere pair of silver bangles by now. He would then wait a while before coming back to thank her for being willing to let him have the bangles. If she managed to get into university, he could buy a gift to congratulate her. If not, he could think of a way to help her get into a private university.

If he helped her to such a great extent, she would definitely be willing to marry him!
