「Late August.」
Tomorrow was the annual assessment.
At this moment, everyone in the Ninth Courtyard was extremely puzzled.
Jiang Man had been absent for many days.
The assessment was tomorrow; if he didn't show up soon, he would miss it.
They only knew that Jiang Man had taken a leave of absence, but not where he had gone.
"Mr. Yan, is Jiang Man coming back for the assessment tomorrow?" Cao Cheng asked.
The others were curious as well.
However, Yan Yiqiu looked at them all and shook her head. "It's hard to say. If he doesn't show up for the assessment, it will be a golden opportunity for all of you to vie for first place."
"Of course, when we're promoted to the Eighth Courtyard in September, he will still be ranked first."
"His ranking won't be changed."
Zhuo Bufan grew excited. "So you're saying I have a shot at being number one?"
"And why can't it be me?" Zhao Yaoyao chimed in.
Suddenly, they were all praying that Jiang Man wouldn't return for the assessment.
