Chapter 122: Results of Monthly Exams (1)
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Once Cheng Yi accepted the case, the staff of the research inst.i.tution contacted Qin Chuan and the hospital where Qin Chuan’s mother was hospitalized.
At this time, Qin Chuan was sitting on the bus. He had just left the research inst.i.tution.
When he received the call, he was stunned for a moment.
“Mr. Qin, are you listening?”
“Ahh, yes. Please go ahead.” Qin Chuan replied. He quickly regained his train of thought. His emotions made his voice quiver a little.
“We need to transfer your mother over to our inst.i.tution. Please arrange the doc.u.ments for the patient’s transfer and related surgery to be completed as soon as possible.”
“Okay, I understand.”
“Mr. Qin, do you have any other questions? If not, we’ll contact you again once your mother is transferred over.”
“May I ask a question?”
“Please go ahead.”
“Why did you suddenly agree to take on my mother’s case?”
“My apologies. I can not answer that question. I’m only in charge of contacting you. As for why we took on your mother’s case, that was decided by the researchers at our inst.i.tution. As a result, I don’t have an answer to your question.”
“I understand. Thank you.”
After he hung up the phone, Qin Chuan couldn’t help but wonder why the inst.i.tution suddenly agreed to take on his mother’s case.
As he thought about this question, an image floated into his mind. It was the scene where he had met Jian Yiling at the entrance of the inst.i.tution.
However, Qin Chuan couldn’t figure out the connection between the two events.
The Huiling Medical Research Inst.i.tution didn’t oblige to any financial groups. Even the Jian and Yu families could not influence the arrangements inside the inst.i.tution.
If that was the case, then how would Jian Yiling be able to influence the inst.i.tution’s decisions?

On Monday, Jian Yiling went to school as usual.
As soon as she arrived in the cla.s.sroom, she noticed that Hu Jiaojiao looked incredibly nervous.
“Yiling, it’s doomed. It’s so so so doomed… The results for the monthly exams are coming out today!” Hu Jiaojiao cried out. This was a tragedy for her.
When she hadn’t received her results, Hu Jiaojiao could lie to herself. She could tell herself that everything was okay. However, once she received her results, she had to face reality.
Hu Jiaojiao continued to cry and complain for a long period of time. However, she still couldn’t avoid the inevitable.
The exam papers were handed out, one by one.
Hu Jiaojiao’s heart wept as she saw her marks. She had failed every subject.
“The wind and snow are cold… My heart is tired and dead…”
Hu Jiaojiao howled out in grief as she collapsed onto her desk.
After howling for a while, she mentally cheered herself up and turned around to look at Jian Yiling’s papers.
Mathematics: 90 out of 150
English: 90 out of 150
Physics: 72 out of 120
Chemistry: 60 out of 100

She had managed to sc.r.a.pe a pa.s.s in her subjects. No more, no less.
However, she had managed to not fail! A pa.s.s was a pa.s.s! It didn’t matter how close it was!
Hu Jiaojiao was quite surprised and envious at the same time: “Yiling, who did you pray to before the exam? How did you manage to pa.s.s every single subject?”
Before the exam, Hu Jiaojiao had told Jian Yiling to try her best to pa.s.s every single exam.
However, she hadn’t expected Jian Yiling to actually pa.s.s.
Furthermore, all her marks had just sc.r.a.ped past the finis.h.i.+ng line.
“You told me to try my best to pa.s.s,” Jian Yiling replied.
“Uh…” Hu Jiaojiao started before she trailed off. She realized that she couldn’t say anything else.
She had indeed said that. She said that they should have aspirations and goals! What if some deities from above saw their pleads and helped them achieve a pa.s.s?
However, the deities had helped Jian Yiling and not her!
Hu Jiaojiao’s heart ached even more.
Then, Hu Jiaojiao took a look at Jian Yiling’s marks once again. She had scored 96 in Chinese! It was 6 marks higher than the score they needed to pa.s.s.
That subject had been Jian Yiling’s only mistake. She had been able to accurately estimate her results for science and maths. However, she hadn’t been able to estimate her results for Chinese.
