It was a well-known fact that Grade 12 Class 6 housed many buffoons.
Chen Yilang had seen them going off on their delusions more than once while they were in class.
This time, however, it seems that they were right.
This was indeed a very important piece of news.
It was no exaggeration to say that this was the climax of one’s three year of life in high school.
Chen Yilang looked at his handphone’s clock at the upper right corner of the screen, and realized it was indeed midnight. It was time to check his scores.
Chen Yilang slowly turned on his computer, logged into the score-checking website, and entered his credentials.
The page loaded slowly…
Chen Yilang stared at the loading spinner that constantly spun at the center of the screen as he began to tap his desk with anxiousness.
In truth, the entire process had only taken ten or so seconds to complete.
However, Chen Yilang felt as if a century had just come and gone.
Finally.
At long last, the page had finished rendering.
666
Chen Yilang calmly refreshed the page.
He checked it again, and it was still the same number, 666.
“Holy cow!”
Chen Yilang was so surprised that he almost threw his keyboard out of the window right then and there. A maelstrom of emotions were welling up inside him, and he had lost all composure.
The incredulous Chen Yilang looked at his admission slip and ID card number again to make sure the results were really his.
“Holy f*ck.”
“I’m actually that good?”
Chen Yilang was dumbfounded.
In fact, not long after the college entrance examinations have ended, the official website had already published the standardized answers for the questions.
However, Chen Yilang had no desire to manually calculate his score.
Curiosity kills the cat, and the same had applied to humans as well.
Between the choice of happily enjoying his three months of holiday and being in tears over his potential results, the choice seemed rather clear-cut for him.
It was for this reason that Chen Yilang was completely clueless as to how well he had done in his exams.
All he knew was that he faced no real difficulties in the exam, and there were no accidents in which had caused him to perform abnormally.
However, Chen Yilang had never thought that he would obtain a score of 666.
After all, he had been an underachiever circle for several years. Any number above 600 simply did not exist within his realm of imagination.
In his opinion, anyone who had obtained 600 and above were considered big shots.
As such, he had never expected that a salted fish like himself to obtain such a score.
That night.
Chen Yilang lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling in a daze.
He found it difficult to sleep.
Moreover, his class’ group chat were still as active as ever.
It was obvious.
That for the high school seniors everywhere in China, that night was going to be a sleepless night.
All of this happened a little too suddenly, and Chen Yilang could not quite manage to wrap his head around it.
The details of the past three years of high school suddenly flooded into his mind at this moment.
A maelstrom of emotions welled up within the salted fish, Chen Yilang once more.
“In the future, I have to work as hard as I did in the third year of high school.”
Chen Yilang looked at the sea of stars outside the window and suddenly felt that his chuunibyou disease was about to relapse.
After tossing and turning for a few hours, Chen Yilang gradually felt sleepy and finally fell asleep.
The next day.
When he opened his eyes, it was already noon.
He ordered a takeaway and had a simple lunch. Following that, he then stayed at home and played games throughout the entire afternoon.
By the time it was five or six o’clock in the afternoon, Chen Yilang heard the sound of a door creaking open from the ground floor.
“Lang Lang!”
“Hurry up and pack up, we’re going to head out!”
“We’re going to Grandma’s house for dinner today!”
Yang Si, who had just gotten home from work, shouted to the person upstairs.
“Alright!” Chen Yilang reluctantly logged out of the game and slowly walked downstairs.
“Lang Lang, I heard that you guys receive your college entrance exam results today?” Yang Si asked as she packed her clothes.
“Ah, yeah.”
“How did you do?”
“Six, Six, Six.” Chen Yilang answered.
“666 my arse. Stop pulling my leg and give me a straight answer!”
Yang Si chided, “Forget it, we’re running out of time. I’ll get you to check the scores once we return. Hurry up and pack your stuff for now.”
“… Mom, I really did score 666,” Chen Yilang said helplessly.
However, the anxious Yang Si did not hear Chen Yilang’s words at all. Instead, she rushed outside to prepare the car.
Forget it, I’ll show it to her once we return.
Knowing his mother’s character, she would probably react exaggeratedly and pester him questions. Just thinking about her reaction had given Chen Yilang a headache.
After all, Yang Si’s impression of her son’s academic ability was still stuck on his first mock exam’s results.
Due to the final sprint prior to the college entrance exam, the school canceled the weekends prior to the last two mock exams. As such, Chen Yilang had no time to come back and report his results to his family.
Chen Yilang obediently sat in the shotgun seat and followed his mother to his grandmother’s house.
“Lang Lang, you’re already 18 years old this year. You’re already an adult.”
“Remember to use your phone less and interact more with others.”
“Otherwise, you’ll be seen as impolite.”
…
On the way.
Chen Yilang started to recall the lines that Yang Si would use.
Basically, Yang Si would repeat the same phrases and questions whenever she visited her relatives. Chen Yilang had already memorized it.
As they spoke.
The two of them had already arrived at their destination.
Upon opening the door, they were immediately greeted by a woman who was about the same age as Yang Si and had the air of a noblewoman.
In truth, the woman could be considered half a noblewoman.
She was Chen Yilang’s aunt, Yang Mei.
When Chen Yilang was young, he had heard some gossip about his aunt and had learned some things about her.
According to his relatives, Yang Mei was a lucksack.
Ever since she was young, Yang Mei did not like studying and did not bother fulfilling her duties. She often played truant and went to bars. After graduating she could not find a good job and her life was in a mess.
Yang Mei was not a capable person, but fortunately for her, she was blessed with good looks.
Plus, since Yang Mei knew how to put on makeup and dress up nicely, her luck with the opposite sex was not bad by any means.
In the end, Yang Mei married Chen Yilang’s uncle, a wealthy entrepreneur, and since then, her life had taken a drastic turn for the better.
Even though Chen Yilang had never seen his uncle in person for several years…
After all, the rich and romantic uncle that his aunt always praised was usually either on a business meeting somewhere, or he was en-route to a business meeting.
Of course, Chen Yilang did not know what Yang Mei’s actual circumstances were, and thus, he decided not to treat her with any bias.
“Wow, isn’t this Lang Lang?”
“It’s been so long. Come give your aunt a hug!”
Yang Mei opened her arms warmly.
“It has been a long time indeed.”

Chen Yilang smiled politely and hugged Yang Mei.
However.
The moment he got close to Yang Mei.
A strong and pungent smell suddenly assaulted his nose…
