Chapter 873 - The End Was Not Near! (1/2)
Fang Qiong’er was stunned. What she was worried about most had happened. She was really wrong.
Su Wuxian took out Qin Haodong’s examination paper again. He said, “Qiong’er, I’ve just seen this paper. Not only did he come up with this creative method for the first question, but he has his own opinions about the following questions. ”
“This is not a paper with 0 marks but a paper with 100 marks or higher!”
As soon as he said that, everyone present was stunned.
Who was Su Wuxian? He was the President of the Alchemist Association in the Tortoise Academy, a Level Seven Alchemist. His standards had always been extremely high. No one had ever heard him speak so highly of anyone.
“I… I…”
Fang Qiong’er lips moved a couple of times, but in the end, she didn’t say a word.
“Qiong’er, it’s our fault. This student named Qin Haodong is definitely a genius. Our Alchemist Association can’t give up such a talent. I’ll invite him back now.”
After that, Su Wuxian was about to walk out of the examination room. Fang Qiong’er shouted, “Mr. Su, wait a minute.”
“Qiong’er, what’s wrong? Is there anything else?” Su Wuxian turned around and asked.
“Mr. Su, since I made the mistake, let me correct it! I’ll invite Qin Haodong back and apologize to him in person.”
It was extremely difficult for Fang Qiong’er to say these words. However, although she was arrogant, she was not a person who would cling to her mistakes instead of correcting them. Since it was her fault, she would bravely bear the responsibility.
Su Wuxian nodded his head in satisfaction. Being willing to correct her mistakes, the nature of his disciple really wasn’t bad.
He said, “Well, go ahead. It’s our Alchemist Association’s fault. When you go there, in addition to apologizing, tell Little Qin that our Alchemist Association will waive all his examination expenses.”
“Although the money is not much, it’s enough to express our apologies.”
“Got it, Mr. Su!”
Fang Qiong’er agreed and rushed to the dormitory according to the address left by Qin Haodong.
Seeing her leave, Ma Yan said to Su Wuxian, “President Su, what about our examination papers?”
According to the usual practice, after handing in the papers, Fang Qiong’er would immediately grade them and announce the results on the spot. But now that Fang Qiong’er had left, what should they do?
Su Wuxian said, “If there isn’t anything urgent, you all can wait here for a bit. If there is something that needs to be dealt with, I will have someone inform you about your results.”
The candidates present nodded. No one left. They all were waiting for Fang Qiong’er and Qin Haodong to come back.
When Qin Haodong returned to the dormitory, the Little Witch and Zhao Xingyue had gone to class, leaving him alone in the house.
He pulled up a chair and sat in the yard, looking up at the distant sky. At this moment, his longing for his family filled his mind.
He had already been in the Lingwu Continent for two days. His family must have been extremely anxious when they found out that he had gone missing. He wondered how the little fellow was doing and if she would miss her father.
He wondered how his women were doing. Would they feel very sad?
In this way, he kept looking dazedly at the sky. No one knew that how long he sat like that. There was a knock at the door.
Fang Qiong’er came to Qin Haodong’s dormitory. She saw him sitting alone in the yard through the fence. His eyes were deep and sad as if full of vicissitudes of life.
She had never seen anyone with such a sad gaze in all her years. Her heart skipped a beat. What had he experienced at such a young age?
After a pause, Fang Qiong’er knocked on the gate when she saw that Qin Haodong was still in a daze and did not notice her arrival.
Qin Haodong came to his senses. He opened the gate of the courtyard. When he saw Fang Qiong’er, he said, “You are here. Let’s begin!”
Fang Qiong’er asked in surprise, “What do you mean by ‘begin’?”
Qin Haodong said playfully, “Aren’t you here to apologize to me? Let’s begin now. If your apology is sincere, I will forgive you!”
“You…”
Fang Qiong’er was so angry that her eyes widened but she was at fault in this matter. In the end, she gritted her teeth and said, “I’m sorry. I judged today’s examination paper too arbitrarily. I misunderstood you. I apologize.”
“Not bad. You are very sincere!” Qin Haodong nodded and then said, “What else?”
“I’ve apologized. What else do you want?” Fang Qiong’er said angrily.
In her memory, this was the first time she had apologized to someone. She didn’t expect that this guy was still not satisfied.
Qin Haodong said with a cheeky smile, “It’s okay. You’re sincere but don’t you have any material compensation?”
“You…”
Looking at this person’s teasing eyes, without any trace of the earlier vicissitudes in his eyes, Fang Qiong’er said angrily, “My teacher said that our Alchemist Association was wrong and as compensation, your future examination expenses will be waived.”
“It’s good. Let’s go. I’ll go back with you.”
Qin Haodong nodded with satisfaction. All the exam expenses were waived. His goal today was to get the Level Five Alchemist Medal in one fell swoop, which meant that he could save 50 top-level Spirit Stones. That was a big sum of money.
Fang Qiong’er snorted and turned around to lead the way back to the Alchemist Association with Qin Haodong.
