Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 1023

Cheryl also found herself stunned for a moment. Then, she heaved a disappointed sigh.

Displayed on the screen was a score of... 0?

While Cheryl was spacing out, a furor went through the rest of the team.

"How can this be?!"

"Is something wrong with the system? How can the score be 0?"

"Even if you guess your way through the papers and choose C for every question, you still won't get 0 points, right?"

"Yeah, there must have been a mistake somewhere!"

"Even I scored more than 100 points on my college entrance examination back then! It's too difficult to get a 0!"

Someone even entertained a ludicrous thought and asked, "Hey Cheryl, you couldn't possibly have skipped every single paper and just filled in your name, right? Did you do that just to shut your family up because they wouldn't let you join the team unless you took the college entrance examination? Are you trying to get back at them?"

Cheryl:

The corners of her lips spasmed. When she was about to say something, next to her, a contemplative look came over Zac's face.

0 points... He had seen that before.

But compared to those people, this young lady in front of him was... So, how could it possibly have been 0 points?

At the same time, Cheryl lowered her head and saw Peter leisurely send a message in the group chat:

'Cherry won't be able to see her scores tonight. The scores of the top 50 in each city are protected, so their scores will be masked and displayed as 0. A certain somebody did not take the college entrance examination, so it's only natural that he wouldn't know. ©Alexander]

He was dissing Alexander for saying that he didn't care about his sister.

Alexander responded very quickly: 'Even if they have masked it, as a hacker, couldn't you have hacked into the system to take a look? At the bottom of it all, it's still because you don't care enough about Cherry.'

Peter replied: 'I tried hacking into their system to check Cherry's score just now, but they are using the latest firewall technology, so I didn't manage to get in.'

A proud Justin immediately sent a message: 'That firewall was enhanced by Nora.'

Everyone:"?"

Cheryl's lip corners spasmed. What was her dad being so proud of when it was her mom who wrote the firewall program?

Peter asked: 'Can Dad hack into it?'

Justin, who was completely unashamed of the fact that he couldn't get past his wife's firewall, replied proudly:

'Of course not.'

Alexander:

Peter:

Cheryl: 'I have six things to say:'

Cheryl:

Just as the three were utterly speechless, Nora finally popped up in the chat: '1598. Two points were deducted in the essay.'

Cheryl:"?"

The others:"???"

After that, Cheryl received congratulatory messages from Alexander, Peter, and Justin. However, she was still a little disappointed, so she hung her head.

Her reaction made Lionel and others even more nervous. Everyone asked, "Hey God C, you... you didn't really submit a blank paper, did you?"

Zac was also a little confused.

As far as he was aware, the scores of the top 50 in each city were masked as a protective measure. And of course, those 50 candidates were basically split between Harvard and MIT.

Should this really be the case, then there wouldn't be anything wrong when Cheryl said that she was still considering Harvard and MIT!

Zac felt like he had stumbled upon the truth.

Cheryl was actually a star student.

He clearly felt like he had guessed the truth, so why was Cheryl suddenly showing such an abject look of disappointment? Had she really handed in a blank paper like what Lionel and the others were saying?

Zac became uncertain again.

Just as everyone was bewildered and confused, Cheryl heaved a huge sigh and said, "I didn't get 1600 points. This is so maddening!"

Everyone:

The difference between 0 and 1600 was kinda big, wasn't it?

Was God C still in lala-land?

Or did she decide to go for the lowest score possible because she couldn't get a score of 1600?

It was certainly true that nobody had a lower score than that in the entire country!

Everyone's lip corners spasmed. They wanted to say something, but they didn't know how they should comfort her.

0 points... God C sure was pitiful!

The only one with a different reaction was Zac. His pupils shrank fiercely, and he confirmed his suspicions.

Originally, he had thought that Cheryl barely made it into the top 50, but judging from what she just said... her score was nearly perfect?!

So, she was even smarter than he'd thought?!

Where did a star student like her pop up from?!

Zac frowned.

It was at this point that the head coach also rushed into the room. "God C, how many points did you score?"

Cheryl closed the results page quietly and replied, "We'll have to wait a little longer to find out."

"Wait?" The head coach, who had never associated with true star students before, was confused. "Aren't the college entrance examination results out yet? But I saw many people showing off their scores on social media!"

Lionel and the others immediately lowered their heads and kept quiet.

Sigh. Since God C was embarrassed to talk about her exam score, then they'd better not expose her.

Zac, however, clenched his jaw, his dark eyes glued to Cheryl. The adorable young lady in front of him looked harmless and easily made one let down their guard against her, but as it turned out, she wasn't just amazing at games... Was she so full of surprises even when it came to studying?!
