Before Qiao Qing could answer, Mu Jinghang interrupted, "Auntie, let me explain. Just like everyone has said, other than Qingqing's classmates and her teacher, everyone is doubtful towards Qingqing's performance on that last exam."
"If she gets admitted into the University just like that, there would be many people who find her undeserving of her achievement. Look at how people are reacting in the City of Brisk. Imagine what she'll face once she gets into the University."
"All the good students who get in, get in by excelling on the exams. Even those who get in because of extra credits have really good grades. Think of all the things they would say about Qingqing.
"If someone gossipy decides to dig up Qingqing's dirt and reveal how poor her grades have been in high school, there would be no way for Qingqing to root herself in the University."
