Chapter 458: 292 Night Sister accidentally made a saucy move..._2

On Friday at noon, Shen Zhiqiao began her last exam.

The exam system access given by Dean Fan for their use was the one normally employed by the professors, so it wasn’t very intelligent; they had to choose their major and grade level themselves.

Dean Fan had walked them through the process before.

Following his directions, Shen Zhiqiao first selected the Department of Biomedical Sciences, then in the grade column, changed the system’s default from senior to sophomore and hit enter, which brought up all the professional course exams included in this round of testing.

Everything else was completed, submitted, and locked by the system, leaving just the last one.

Shen Zhiqiao clicked open, entered her student ID number, and began the exam.

At 12:50, with over 40 minutes to spare before the official exam time ended, Shen Zhiqiao turned in her paper early, having finished all the contents.

Academician Li packed up his papers spread out on the lecturer’s desk and looked at his protégé with satisfaction. "Qiaoqiao, managing both the project and the final exams simultaneously is certainly not something an ordinary student could do, but you are no ordinary student..."

Shen Zhiqiao smiled lightly, "I understand, these past few days have been troublesome, thanks to Academician Li."

Academician Li waved his hand, "No trouble at all. Otherwise, I would have had to take the time to compile all this experimental data," he glanced at Shen Zhiqiao, "Go have lunch at the canteen first, there’s no rush for this afternoon’s experiment."

Shen Zhiqiao thought for a moment. "It’s fine, I’m not hungry. I’ve heard that Academician Fu’s group is ahead of us in research progress; I’ll head back to the lab shortly."

Academician Li looked at his watch, "Alright, go ahead." ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

...

As Shen Zhiqiao approached the lab’s entrance, she happened to see Xia Ye exiting the neighboring lab with Academician Fu.

Research fellows like Huang Yan and Ji Xiaomin were following behind them.

The group appeared relaxed, chatting and discussing project data as they walked.

"A week of hard work has paid off. We can finally get a good night’s sleep tonight."

"Yeah, how many days have we gone without proper sleep?"

"It seems like the other groups aren’t done yet; we’re the ones making the fastest progress."

"It’s all thanks to little sister Xia for powering through with us without delay for a single day..."

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhiqiao frowned with an odd expression on her face.

What does that mean?

Without delay for a single day... Could it be that Xia Ye hadn’t attended any exams these past few days?

She herself had not a single moment of rest, making full use of morning, noon, and night just to manage both the exams and the project.

And that was under the precondition that she could hand in her papers, which were supposed to take two hours, in just about one hour.

The school allowed them to schedule their own exam times as an exception, but in order not to delay the release of other students’ results, Dean Fan had reminded them that the exam system would close promptly at 6 PM on Friday. If they didn’t complete their exams by then, it would be as though they had no grades at all.

Today was already Thursday. Xia Ye... hadn’t she given up on the final exams just to win her team members’ favor and lead in the group’s progress?

When Academician Fu and the others noticed her, Shen Zhiqiao recalled the past incident where she had lost to Xia Ye in testing the lab mice, sneered sarcastically, and couldn’t be bothered to say more, turning on her heel to leave.

Ji Xiaomin had been just about to ask Xia Ye. "Junior sister, have you scheduled your exam time? When is the deadline?"

Xia Ye thought back. "I think it’s... today at 6 PM."

As soon as she said this, there was a quiet moment all around.

Even Huang Yan couldn’t help but check the time, "Junior sister, there are only five hours left, you..."

"Five hours?" Xia Ye touched her nose, her tone unusually casual. "That’s enough."

The researchers looked at one another in astonishment. ???

Could the final exams at prestigious Beijing University be so simple?

Academician Fu, hearing her response, fell silent for a moment with a complex expression, but he quickly realized that if they didn’t hurry to the computer room, there wouldn’t even be five hours left.

He had mentioned arranging the exams with Xia Ye several days before, but every time Xia Ye said there was no rush, that she would deal with it after the experiments.

Academician Fu admired her professional dedication to the research project, but he couldn’t let her do as she pleased.

Not to mention the challenge of taking so many exams all at once, keeping the brain running at full throttle without rest, but just considering the time alone, five hours, how could she possibly finish all the exams?

He patted Xia Ye’s shoulder now that the experiment was over, and he had time. "I’ll take you to the computer room, you start your exams, and don’t worry. If time is short, I’ll call Dean Fan and talk to him."

Xia Ye smiled, and seeing that he was serious, she no longer tried to explain but followed him toward the computer room.

Once seated in the computer room, she found the website and password for the exam system sent to her by Dean Fan.

What had Dean Fan said about the exam process?

Xia Ye always felt sleepy in the winter, and she had been daydreaming when Dean Fan was giving instructions.
