"Failed seven subjects out of five exams?" Wang Shuqiu's aunt didn't understand, and neither did her uncle. They couldn't grasp how one could fail seven subjects when only five were taken; the numbers just didn't add up.

"You don't get it, do you? Let me explain," Wang Shuqiu said. "He failed his exams last year, failed the retakes, and then failed again this year. That's how you get seven fails. I'm not making this up; I found this on their school's website. Want me to pull it up for you right now? He can't even get his graduation certificate, yet he still dreams of elevating others. Dream on."

We are your aunt and uncle, your elders! What kind of filth are you spewing? If you talked like this outside, people would laugh themselves sick!"
