The Young Matriarch-Chapter 339 - : If This Isn’t an Immortal, What Is?
Chapter 339: Chapter 339: If This Isn’t an Immortal, What Is?
This year’s college entrance examination Chinese composition…was actually a picture-based essay.
“Please carefully observe these four-frame comic strips, and write an article of no less than 800 words based on your understanding.”
The last time a picture-based essay was on the test was over a decade ago.
Countless Chinese teachers’ predicted topics didn’t hit the mark!
Who would have thought it would actually be a picture-based essay.
If this isn’t the work of an Immortal, what is?
...
Quite a few students couldn’t contain their excitement, some who had specifically researched how to write picture-based essays nearly teared up with joy.
Damn, that’s really something!
The students bit their pens and made great efforts to understand the possible meanings of the comics before they finally started writing…
At eleven thirty in the morning, the first Chinese composition exam ended on time.
“Stop writing, you cannot write anymore!” the proctors in each examination room shouted as they began collecting answer sheets and test papers.
Xu Xingchen’s face turned ghostly pale, his lips tightly pressed into a straight line, and his heart was ice-cold.
Done for.
His essay was still missing the last short paragraph…
The incident with the Jade Pendant had completely thrown him off, and then, to suddenly see a picture-based essay, something he had never practiced before, meant that the Chinese paper he usually finished early was incomplete by a small section.
Ruined!
Tears welled up in Xu Xingchen’s eyes as he bit down hard on his teeth, continuously comforting himself internally.
It’s okay, Chinese won’t create much of a score gap, as long as everything goes smoothly in the following exams.
Xu Xingchen’s face was taut as he quickly packed his pen and ID card into his transparent pencil case. After the proctors sealed the test papers and announced that all students could leave, Xu Xingchen stood up and walked towards the podium, “Teacher, may I have my Jade Pendant back now?”
Just as the proctor was about to nod, that special policeman walked over, first showing his credentials, then donning gloves, using tweezers to place the Jade Pendant into a sealed transparent plastic bag, and said coldly to Xu Xingchen, “According to regulations, we’ll have to take this Jade Pendant for inspection.”
Xu Xingchen’s face grew even whiter, not showing a trace of blood.
He couldn’t help but press on, “What does this mean? Are you going to summon me afterward?”
The man nodded, “If necessary, we will indeed summon you.”
Xu Xingchen felt a thud in his heart, and just as he had managed to calm down, anxiety crept in again.
They’re going to summon him?

Xu Xingchen couldn’t bear to think of the terrible consequences!
Xu Xingchen wandered out as if in a daze, almost being pushed by the crowd towards the exit, his eyes somewhat vacant.
Duan Xiuhao and the others were already waiting outside. As soon as they saw Xu Xingchen coming out, they stepped forward to grasp his shoulders, “Xingchen, how did the exam go? I heard from Xingye just now that it wasn’t too difficult, so it must’ve been even easier for you, right?”
Xu Xingchen showed Duan Xiuhao a smile, a smile uglier than crying.
Duan Xiuhao was startled by that smile, “What’s wrong? Didn’t do well? It’s okay; the gap won’t be big in Chinese.”
Duan Xiuhao had great confidence in his son Xu Xingchen, who had excellent grades—a true academic master.
Seeing Xu Xingchen’s empty chest, Duan Xiuhao couldn’t help but inquire, “Xingchen, where is the Jade Pendant your dad gave you?”
Upon hearing this, Xu Xingchen’s eyes reddened in an instant!
With an upset and indignant tone, Xu Xingchen replied, “Dad, the Jade Talisman you gave me was confiscated! Confiscated by a proctor!”
