Ma'am You Have Been Uncovered

Chapter 344: She Just Wanted to Take the Exam, But Accidentally Messed Up the Computer

Butler Qin and Ah Wen were still rooted on the spot, staring in the direction Qin Ran left.

“Butler Qin, are you alright?” Seeing how silent and motionless he was, Ah Wen couldn’t help but call him.

Butler Qin returned to his senses, but instead of answering him, he took out his phone with trembling fingers and dialed Qin Xiuchen’s number.

“Sixth Master, I’ve delivered the stuff.” Butler Qin finally spoke after a long while. “I... saw her too.”

On the other end of the phone, Qin Xiuchen was filming the show. Humming faintly, he glanced at Qin Ling. “The stuff reached Beijing last night, right?”

He knew that Butler Qin hadn’t delivered it in time and had also expected this. But fortunately, he had still personally delivered it as requested.

After hanging up the phone, Qin Xiuchen glanced at Qin Ling and loudly said, “Xiao Ling, be careful!”

No matter how precocious Qin Ling was, he was still just a child and would show curiosity to novel things. Only at this time did he show his child-like side.

Butler Qin hung up the phone and got into the car with Ah Wen.

Sitting in the driver’s seat, Ah Wen drove on the road. “Butler Qin, that person just now...”

After Qin Hanqiu’s arrival in Beijing, Ah Wen had followed him and naturally noticed how similar he and the girl just now looked.

“Second Master’s eldest daughter.” Butler Qin stared out the car in a daze.

Although he had expected this, he was still shocked speechless upon hearing this. “I’ve heard the Second Master mention this before. It seems like the eldest daughter’s living conditions hadn’t been as good as Qin Yu’s, but she actually went to the Physics Department?”

She wasn’t Beijing’s native, nor did she have any backing. But she still managed to enter the Physics Department by herself?

“If she can enter the laboratory next time...” Ah Wen glanced at the rearview mirror and suddenly spoke. After a long while, he shut up again.

The conditions were too harsh.

Apart from the real geniuses, those who entered had been professionally cultivated by various families since young.

Both of them were completely silent on the way back.

**

Beijing University only had two midterm exams in the morning.

The exams were all important professional courses.

Physics in the morning, Mathematics in the afternoon.

Qin Ran stayed in the library before heading to the classroom for the afternoon exam.

At 1:50 pm, almost all the students in Class 1 were already inside. Some of them were holding their notebooks, doing some big questions on differential and derivative mathematics that the teacher had talked about before the exam.

All of them were at their wit’s ends.

A group of people surrounded Qin Ran.

“Qin Ran, you handed in your paper so early in the morning. Did you finish all the big questions?”

“You actually finished such difficult questions?”

“Yeah, I didn’t even have time to finish reading some questions...”

While they surrounded her, Xing Kai and Chu Heng entered the classroom and paused at this scene. “I didn’t have time to do a question as well, but Qin Ran finished hers so quickly?”

Xing Kai glanced at Qin Ran expressionlessly and tiredly replied, “Perhaps.”

The Physics questions in the morning had been so terrible he now doubted life.

Not to mention Xing Kai, all students of the Automation Department couldn’t lift their spirits for the afternoon Mathematics exam.

They originally doubted life due to the Physics paper and thought it was the worst moment in their lives.

It wasn’t until the afternoon when the Mathematics papers were issued that the students realized they had wronged the Physics teacher.

The Physics questions had at least been traceable, but the Mathematics questions were completely crazy. The median theorem, huge amount of calculation, and especially the last four marks differential equation model.

Was it even in the book?? Wasn’t this the mathematical modeling used by top students in the Mathematics Departments to win awards?!

But it was tested in the Automation Department?? Were they crazy??

A full document could be written just based on this topic.

This last question on the differential equation had considerable difficulty in the Mathematics Department as well. It not only required the condition to be solved but also discussed its conjugacy to prove four theorems.

At the end of her writing, Qin Ran realized that Markov’s basic prediction method also had to be used to determine the solution.

She wrote briefly for the first few questions and used half of the paper’s time for the last question.

After finishing the paper ahead of time, she handed her answer sheet to the invigilator and then left with her backpack.

She was a famous celebrity in the Automation Department, so her invigilator naturally paid attention to her, especially the teacher who invigilated her Mathematics paper. She held her answer paper, a little stupefied.

Among all the papers, the invigilator took out Qin Ran’s and glanced at it. Then, she sealed the test papers properly and returned to the office.

“Are you okay?” The teacher in the same room couldn’t help asking when he noticed his strange expression.

Returning to his senses, the invigilator shook his head. “I’m just...”

“Today’s questions were too difficult?”

“I’m not sure about that.” The invigilator put the test papers away and then turned to the other teacher. “Just... have you seen someone get tired writing the test paper halfway through, and then use another hand to continue writing?”

Having invigilated for so many years, this was the first time he saw such a student. He had been stupefied on the spot.

The other teacher was speechless.

To be honest, he had never seen it before.

He had only seen people switch to their left hands to carry things when their right hand was tired.

With the Physics and Mathematics papers placed in front, the following basic Computer Science paper could no longer stir up the students.

The Computer Science paper was held at 9:00 am the next morning in the computer room.

Qin Ran glanced at it from the beginning to the end. They were all basic questions, but the last one was a little difficult operation question. Since she didn’t need to write the program by herself this time, she finished the process in about ten minutes.

Instead of moving forward to check the previous exercises, she just opened the editor, typed a bunch of codes, and then pressed enter.

Then, she gently pulled her stool and got up to leave.

The invigilator walking back and forth in the computer room saw her leaving and hurried over. “Student, you’re prohibited from handing in your paper within 30 minutes of the exam...”

He stopped beside her and spoke in a low voice.

The Computer Science paper was handed in systematically. The teaching system usually made it mandatory for 30 minutes to pass before handing in the papers, so the computer strictly controlled this aspect.

While talking, the invigilator looked in her computer’s direction.

But the circle on Qin Ran’s computer was completed.

Then, the words “successfully checked in” and a green checkmark successfully popped out.

The invigilator paused halfway in his speech.

Slightly lowering her eyelashes, Qin Ran casually carried her black backpack and politely asked in a whisper, “Teacher, can I go now?”

The invigilator gaped, and then returned to his senses. “Oh, you can go.”

He was a teacher specializing in Computer Sciences instead of Automation. After Qin Ran left, he frowned and stared at her computer.

After all the students had handed in their papers, he solemnly locked the computer room’s door, then returned to his office and rigorously reported to the manager—

[The computer room’s exam system has loopholes.]

Beijing University’s exam system in the computer room had loopholes?!

This was the biggest insult to Beijing University’s Computing Department!

Especially when the exam was such a serious matter!

After the lunch break for the test, a group of people in charge of the computer room closed the door, started the internal test, and checked for any bugs.

Some students who needed to take computer tests, especially those in the sophomore year of Economics, had come to the computer room to familiarize themselves with the sequence model in advance. Staring at the troubleshooting notice posted on the door, they exchanged confused glances.

It was the first time Beijing University conducted such a large-scale investigation of computer room failures after such a long time. The school forum went ablaze with conspiracy theories.

For example, a student organization from University A had attacked, or a hacker wanted to challenge the authority of Beijing University’s security system...

All sorts of rumors and speculations spread.

Of course, Qin Ran didn’t pay attention to these. She didn’t know that the exam she originally wanted to take seriously... had unexpectedly messed up the computer system for the whole afternoon.

After finishing all the professional courses, the Automation Department also considered how physically and mentally exhausted the freshmen were, so they very considerately gave them a half-day off.

Nan Huiyao didn’t even eat lunch and just dragged her heavy body back to the bedroom.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Yang Yi leaning on the chair, looking just as weak as her. They exchanged glances and could guess without saying anything just how their exams had gone.

“I bought two packets of instant noodles.” Yang Yi reluctantly sat upright and threw a packet to her. “I didn’t think you’d have the energy to eat dinner. I even boiled water for you.”

Nan Huiyao took the instant noodles and sat thinking about life for two minutes before returning to her senses. She opened the packet of instant noodles and the seasoning package before pouring boiling water.

Leng Peishan came in with a small mirror.

After dinner, she was putting on lipstick while walking into the bathroom.

After glancing at their state, she turned her attention to Yang Yi. “Were the questions this year that difficult?”

She and Nan Huiyao basically stopped talking.

Yang Yi nodded. “The hardest in history.”

Taken aback, Leng Peishan laughed, then sat down to continue putting on her lipstick. “Really? I remember that Qin Ran was supposed to take the exams as well.”
