Chapter 63 Part 1 - Good News (2/2)

The person in the middle of the crowd was stunned for a while and suddenly turned silent.

Being silent like this in the middle of the bustling noise of the restaurant really made the people flabbergasted. The crowd also gradually calmed down, the people looked at each other in dismay, not knowing what’s up with this person. Someone couldn’t help opening his mouth: “What’s the result actually? Quickly say it ah!”

That person hesitated for a moment before saying: “Ming Yi Hall’s rankings, the Jiang family’s fifth miss, Jiang Yu’e, is ranked third, Chengxuan envoy’s daughter, Meng Hong Jin, is ranked second.”

When he said “Meng Hong Jin is ranked second”, the crowd sighed. The bet between Jiang Li and Meng Hong Jin was known by everyone. Since Meng Hong Jin got the second place, Jiang Li’s wager where she wanted Meng Hong Jin to kneel down and apologize at the gate of the Imperial College was impossible. Then they only needed to see whether Jiang second miss would rank last. If she did, then she would be totally lost.

Ye Shijie secretly clenched his fists tightly. He didn’t know why but he was actually worried about Jiang Li’s fate.

“The top of the list is…….” The person who was listing the rankings suddenly paused for a moment. Under the pressure of the many eyes, he finally spoke the final name.

“Chief Assistant’s daughter Jiang second miss, Jiang Li.”

Jiang Li!

Ye Shijie’s friend was so shocked he almost overturned his glass. He picked his ears, “Did I mishear, Shijie? He said Jiang Li is at the top of the list?!”

Ye Shijie also suspected that there’s a problem with his ears, or possibly he was in a dream.

As soon as the man finished speaking, the crowd was suddenly aroused. They rained curses: “Is there something wrong with your eyes or are you blind? Maybe you are illiterate, that’s how you speak of such delusion?”

That person argued justly. With a red face he bellowed, “I didn’t speak nonsense, Jiang second miss is at the top of the list!”
