"That's strange. Vacation is about to start, so why would Director Yang be calling me to his office?"

"Maybe they're giving you a scholarship?" Liu Zhu sidled up to him, his face full of envy. "Not only did you rank first in the entire year on the final exams, but you even got your test paper published in the Chinese Medicine journal. That's completely unprecedented! Our school got some major bragging rights because of you. I heard that Principal Ma's favorite pastime recently is calling up the principals of other medical schools to show off."
Zhao Yuan shook his head. "I doubt it. Aren't scholarships handed out at the start of the new semester?"
