The results were posted the next day. Long before noon, the entrance to the examination hall was already mobbed.
Fortunately, the Wang Family's teahouse was nearby, and a private room had already been prepared for them, allowing the group to saunter over unhurriedly.
All along the way, scholars could be seen everywhere, dressed in their long robes and square caps.
They were all fraught with anxiety, their brows furrowed in worry. Even when speaking with others, they were distracted. It was clear at a glance they were agonizing over their examination results.
But at this point, all the worrying in the world was useless.
The lists were about to be posted. If you passed, you passed. If you didn't, your name wouldn't magically appear on the list even if you cried your eyes out.
Wang Xiao was likely the most relaxed of the group. Since he hadn't taken the exam this year, he was in the perfect mood to poke fun at the others.
