Jiang Ping, relying on his memories from his previous life, focused on reviewing several major questions, and they all appeared on the exam, which made him very happy. After all, just these few questions alone raised his math score by at least fifteen points. For the college entrance examination, often referred to as the "thousand troops crossing a narrow bridge," these fifteen points often meant the difference between heaven and hell.

After the math exam, Jiang Ping returned home and received a call from Li Qian. The girl was clearly in a very good mood and excitedly told him over the phone, "Jiang Ping, your intuition is so accurate! Four out of the five question types you gave me appeared on the exam! This is too amazing!"

"Actually, if I wanted to, I could have given all five questions," Jiang Ping couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "And this isn't about intuition, but memory."

Of course, Jiang Ping couldn't say this out loud. He just smiled and said to Li Qian, "I told you my intuition is always very accurate. Last time with your dad's issue was the same, and this time guessing four questions isn't that surprising."

"You're right!" Li Qian had unconditional trust in Jiang Ping and immediately agreed with him, then said proudly, "The questions you guessed right will earn me at least ten more points. This way, I really have a good chance of getting into Fudan University!"

Jiang Ping also sincerely hoped Li Qian would get into Fudan University, the further away from the fate of his previous life, the better. So he smiled and nodded, "Of course, that would be great, and I'm happy for you too!"

Since they still had exams the next day, the two briefly chatted and then hung up.

The math and other subjects were quickly completed, and the next step was to estimate the scores based on the standard answers at school. Jiang Ping, with his memories from his previous life, did very well this time. The estimated score was already above the first-tier university admission line from the previous year. He shared this news with his family, which made his parents and sister extremely happy.

After all, Jiang Ping's original grades were average in the class, and getting into a second-tier university was already considered lucky. The current situation was even better than the best expected outcome, giving the Jiang Jiahua couple a sense of a dream come true.

After estimating the scores, it was time to fill in the college applications. Jiang Ping, following his previous plan, filled in the first choice as Nanjing University in Suzhou. Based on the estimated scores, as long as Nanjing University's admission line didn't increase significantly this year, Jiang Ping would have no problem getting into this university.

The Jiang Jiahua couple had no objections to Jiang Ping's decision. After all, in their original thinking, getting into a second-tier university was already very good. Now that Jiang Ping had the qualifications to apply for a first-tier university like Nanjing University, it was a pleasant surprise for the Jiang Jiahua couple, and they didn't ask for more.

Li Qian, because she believed Jiang Ping and focused on reviewing the math questions he highlighted, also scored much higher than she expected. This gave her confidence when filling in her college applications, and she confidently applied to Fudan University in Shanghai, which she had always wanted to attend.

Filling in the college applications at school was also the last opportunity for all the senior students of No. 2 High School to gather together. After everyone left the school, they would pursue their own goals, and it would be difficult to gather again in the future.

So after filling in the applications, the students stayed in the classroom and didn't leave immediately, wanting to spend more time with their classmates whom they had been with for three years. Before today, many students might have had various conflicts, but at this moment, those things didn't matter. The prevailing emotion was a sense of parting, with the boys reminiscing about the past and many sensitive girls already shedding tears of farewell.

However, there are always exceptions. Jiang Ping, who had experienced many life and death situations in his previous life and was even forced to jump into the sea, didn't feel as sentimental as the other students. For him, it was just a matter of going their separate ways after graduation. As long as they wanted to meet again, there would always be a chance to reunite.

So Jiang Ping looked very calm, standing out in the classroom where the boys were saying their goodbyes and the girls were shedding tears. He sat alone at his desk and soon caught the attention of others. His best friend, Zhang Jun, came over and whispered, "Why are you sitting here alone? Why don't you go say goodbye to others?"

"What's the point of saying goodbye? We'll see each other again," Jiang Ping shrugged indifferently. "The good friends have already exchanged contact information, and for the average ones... it doesn't matter whether we see each other again or not. Why be so emotional?"

"Damn, you cold-blooded animal!" Zhang Jun looked at Jiang Ping with feigned surprise. "We've been classmates for three years, at least a bit of camaraderie, right? I guess I'll have to stay away from you in the future!"

Jiang Ping knew Zhang Jun well and understood that he was just joking. He didn't take his friend's words seriously and lazily asked, "By the way, I haven't seen Zhou Xiang these past few days. Why isn't he here?"

"He has the nerve to come!" Zhang Jun sneered. "He lost his college entrance exam eligibility, so coming to estimate scores would be foolish, let alone filling in college applications! But..."

Jiang Ping mentioned Zhou Xiang to Zhang Jun because he wanted to find out what was happening with him. He knew his friend was well-informed and should know Zhou Xiang's whereabouts.

And indeed, that was the case. Jiang Ping immediately followed up, "But what?"

"But I heard he joined the military," Zhang Jun whispered. "It seems his father helped him. You know what his father does; getting his son in wouldn't be a problem."

Hearing this, Jiang Ping nodded silently. After the police station failed to bring Zhou Xiang in for questioning, he had Zhang Jun investigate Zhou Xiang's family background. He knew that Zhou Xiang's father was a mid-level official in the district's People's Armed Forces Department. With this connection, it wasn't difficult to get Zhou Xiang into the military.

Learning that Zhou Xiang had joined the military made Jiang Ping somewhat unhappy. He had spent a lot of effort dealing with Zhou Xiang, intending to give him a painful lesson. Now, losing his college entrance exam eligibility was the only punishment, and Zhou Xiang could still join the military, which wasn't the outcome Jiang Ping had hoped for.

However, with his experience from his previous life, Jiang Ping knew that not everything could go as planned. He had already made Zhou Xiang lose the opportunity to attend university and tarnished his reputation in No. 2 High School and the education system, which was a satisfactory outcome for himself and Li Qian.

As for what would happen in the future, no one could predict. Jiang Ping was very confident in his abilities. Even if Zhou Xiang returned after a few years in the military to cause trouble, Jiang Ping was confident he could deal with him again.

Thinking about this, Jiang Ping no longer dwelled on Zhou Xiang. But Zhang Jun was still indignant, saying, "It's really infuriating. This guy tried to get you and Li Qian, cheated in the exam, and still managed to join the military. This world really has no justice!"

Since it was his friend complaining, Jiang Ping gave him some face and looked at Zhang Jun with a serious expression. At that moment, Jiang Ping's pupils showed a strange change in light, and his "Machiavellian Eye" activated again. This time, he saw a pink glow almost completely filling Zhang Jun's forehead.
