Settle Scores

"This is bad. I… I did not finish my essay."

"The classical Chinese comprehension this year is so difficult. I just scribbled the answers."

"Don't bring it up. I am having a headache from the exams."

When it was time to hand in the papers, all the students who were in the same exam hall as Qiao Nan groaned. The Chinese exam today was difficult. All the students looked awful.

While everyone was busy tallying their answers, Qiao Nan stood out from the rest. She kept her stationery and walked toward the exit of the hall.

"Zhu Baoguo!" She ran in the direction of Zhu Baoguo's exam hall and saw the ghastly look on Zhu Baoguo. His clothes were all wrinkled up. Qiao Nan frowned. "What happened this morning?"

It was such a close shave. There were only five minutes left. If Zhu Baoguo was late by even a few seconds, he would be barred from entering the exam hall.
