The two–month–long intensive preparation proved effective. Milly found the language exam much easier than the mock exam she took when she first arrived here.

She finished the two–and–a–half–hour test in less than an hour and a half, then spent another half an hour checking her answers. Confident that everything was correct, she handed in her paper half an hour early.

The proctor glanced at his watch in surprise. It wasn’t uncommon for students to submit their papers early during regular exams, but it was rare during the college entrance exams, which could determine their future. Most students would double–check their answers repeatedly before feeling assured enough to submit their papers.

Milly was handing in her paper exactly half an hour early, which was quite surprising.

Out of his responsibility as an educator, he spoke up, “Young lady, there’s still half an hour left until the end of the exam. Are you sure you want to submit your paper now? Wouldn’t you like to check it one more time?

Milly shook her head. Thank you, Sir, but I’m sure.”

Seeing her insistence, the proctor didn’t press further. “Alright then, please submit your draft paper, test paper, and answer sheet. Then gather your belongings and you may leave.”

“Thank you, Sir.

Milly let out a sigh of relief as she walked out of the exam hall.

The language exam was finally over. As long as she did well in languages, she could easily score full marks. in subjects like Mathematics. She felt completely at ease now.

The campus was very quiet, and she didn’t see any other students after she left the exam hall.

It seemed like she was indeed the first to finish, which explained the proctor’s surprised expression earlier.

However, as she approached the school gate, she regretted finishing early. She should have known better.
