About two hours later.
The bus that Lin Zichen was on finally arrived at the forest that served as the exam venue.
Shen Qinghan, who had been watching news videos with earphones, was now sweetly asleep on Lin Zichen’s shoulder.
She was sleeping so deeply that drool was leaking out.
Be it wetting the bed or drooling, it seems she has always been overabundant with liquids...
Lin Zichen shook his head helplessly, took a tissue out of his backpack, and wiped off the drool at the corner of Shen Qinghan’s mouth.
Then he gently poked her cheek with his finger and softly called, “Han Han, we’ve arrived at the exam site, wake up.”
“We’re here?”
Shen Qinghan woke up groggily, her eyes still sleepy.
Soon, everyone got off the bus, and as soon as they disembarked, they heard someone shouting through a megaphone.
“Those for entrance 29, come this way!”
“Entrance 3, over here!”
“Candidates for entrance 18, gather over here!”
“Entrance 78 is right here...”
The candidates coming for the practical assessment were numerous, nearly a hundred thousand.
Having just one entrance clearly wouldn’t do.
To scatter the candidates into the forest and achieve a better assessment outcome, the educational department had specially set up 100 entrances to the forest.
It didn’t take long for the candidates to locate their respective entrance groups according to the announcements.
Then, they left the transfer station in groups, heading to their designated entrance points.
Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan were assigned to the same entrance point.
Both were for entrance 9; finding their group, they left the transfer station by bus.
In less than ten minutes.
The bus arrived at the destination and stopped.
Once Lin Zichen got off the bus, he saw that entrance 9 was already teeming with people.
At a glance, there were at least several hundred candidates.
Apart from the candidates, there were also about a dozen vendors setting up stalls selling food.
“In the middle of this wilderness, there are actually people setting up stalls to sell food?”
Shen Qinghan was surprised. Upstodatee from
Lin Zichen explained, “It’s normal, with nearly a thousand candidates at each entrance point. Setting up for a few hours here could likely earn them thousands.”
A puzzled look appeared on Shen Qinghan’s face, “But logically speaking, the educational department shouldn’t allow these vendors to come in, right?”
Lin Zichen smiled, “Who knows.”
Shen Qinghan quickly had another question, “So many people are buying food at these stalls. It’s the college entrance exam, aren’t they afraid of getting a bad stomach?”
“The food these vendors are selling is definitely hygienic; otherwise, the relevant personnel would not dare let them in to sell food.”
Lin Zichen added.
“No need for money, just take it,” Lin Zichen said and took out a loaf of bread and a pack of biscuits from his bag, tossing them casually to the student.
After all, there was so much food in the bag that he couldn’t finish it himself; giving some away wouldn’t hurt.
“It’s embarrassing to freeload off you guys like this.”
“How about this? In return, once we enter the forest, I’ll team up with you two and help you score,” the student offered confidently, introducing himself, “By the way, my name is Hong Junping, a student from Qianzhen No. 1 Middle School’s rocket class. I can run 100 meters in 6 seconds and lift a 750kg barbell with one hand. Once we’re in the forest, I can at least get you 5 points.”
Lin Zichen declined politely, “Thank you for the offer, but it’s not necessary.”
The boy was stunned, not expecting to be rejected.
Moments later, he recovered and smiled awkwardly, “I see, well then, bro, thanks for the bread and biscuits,” and turned to leave.
Once the boy had walked some distance away, Shen Qinghan couldn’t help but comment, “He’s weird. There are so many food stalls around, but instead of buying from them, he came specifically to us.”
“The old man’s love for wine is not just about wine; it’s because we have a stunningly beautiful girl here,” Lin Zichen said with a smile.
He knew very well that the boy had approached them to hit on Shen Qinghan.
Seeing how beautiful Shen Qinghan was, he wanted to get to know her and then came up with a poor excuse to team up.
“Ah? So he was hitting on me? That’s so sly...” Shen Qinghan said, realizing only after Lin Zichen explained.
At this moment, a girl nearby chimed in with a smile, “That’s not necessarily the case; maybe the boy came over because he saw a handsome guy here.”
Lin Zichen:
The girl walked over and struck up a conversation with Lin Zichen, “My name is Zou Wenjuan, a student from Changzhou No. 1 Middle School’s genius class. I think you’re really handsome, can we add each other on WeChat?”
“I don’t use WeChat.”
“Then, QQ?”
“I don’t use QQ either.”
Lin Zichen declined gently again, not interested in adding this strange girl to his contacts.
Getting the hint, the girl didn’t linger any longer and walked away.
In the following time,
All the candidates at the entry point were eating.
If they didn’t eat now, they would have nothing to eat once they entered the forest.
Eat as much as possible while it’s possible, so that even if there’s nothing to eat for the whole day later, they could still get through it effortlessly.
While eating, most of the candidates were constantly observing the others around them.
They were trying to distinguish which were the top students and which were the underachievers, so they could form appropriate strategies for the upcoming practical assessment.
If they encountered top students, they would avoid them for fear of having their scoring cards snatched away.
Conversely, if they ran into underachievers, they would go for their scoring cards.
The game was all about bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
In the meantime, the Qianzhen City student who had been previously rejected by Lin Zichen for teaming up came over again to ask.
This time, he didn’t ask Lin Zichen but instead went to ask Shen Qinghan.
However, Shen Qinghan bluntly refused, stating, “I only team up with him. I won’t team up with other guys. You should go talk to other girls.”
“Don’t get me wrong; I’m not hitting on you. I just don’t like owing people,” the boy tried to clarify.
“I took your bread and biscuits for free earlier and thought about helping you out in the forest as a way to repay for that.”
“Since you don’t need it, let’s leave it at that,” he said, and then left awkwardly.
He hadn’t expected to be rejected again, and so bluntly at that. He muttered to himself that these two didn’t know the chance they were missing and how foolish they were.
