Chapter 10

"Hey buddy, can you lend me your Chinese textbook so I can copy it later?"

"Wait a minute, Chinese? Chinese, right? Oh my god, you copied Li Tang's Chinese."

Class 10 is noisy.

Some are extremely noisy, while others are extremely calm.

Ning Qingxu didn't feel bored at all when looking at the pile of densely packed notes.

Xu Song flipped through the clean Chinese textbook and compared it with Ning Qingxu's. The difference was not just a little bit.

In the last bit of time, Xu Song memorized some ancient poems that could earn him some points, and sat there with an indifferent look on his face like a big boss.

Li Ziyan turned around and looked at him: "Prepare for the exam, what are you doing? Waiting to cry when the results come out?"

Yu Liping sorted out the test papers and encouraged them: "This is the first monthly exam for senior year. Don't let the teacher down!"

Xu Song felt hopeless when he got the test paper. He looked at the questions with no idea what to do.

Why does he recognize each word separately, but not when they are put together?

He stared at the character "面" (appearance), and the more he looked at it, the less it looked like a character, and he had no idea where to start.

There are many areas where you can get points in the Chinese language test. Even poor students can do well in Chinese. You can get points by reading comprehension of ancient poems and writing full essays.

Ning Qingxu was a freshman and sat in his original seat - the last one in the last row.

Xu Song was ahead of him, 6th from the bottom.

He had no reason to mock others. They were freshmen and no one knew their abilities. But he ranked last in the exam based on his "ability".

Xu Song looked at the test paper. The first subject was Chinese, the only subject he could get points in even without studying.

He didn't know how long he slept. He only remembered that when he woke up, Ning Qingxu was poking his back with the tip of a pen, and the pen cap was on.

Xu Song turned her head, the corners of her eyes still red from waking up. She had the air of a delicate beauty.

Ning Qingxu put down his pen and asked him, "Are you finished?"

He didn't answer directly, but asked him, "Are you going to close the book?"

Ning Qingxu raised his wrist and looked at his watch. His wrist was very white, and the light shining on it revealed a sickly white color.

Anyone with a keen eye could tell that this watch was worth a fortune. Xu Song also noticed it and sighed.

Ning Qingxu shook his head: "There are still more than forty minutes."

Xu Song had just woken up and was a little confused. He mumbled, "How long have you been using it? This speed..."

Ning Qingxu pretended to be calm and looked at the test paper.

The invigilator of the last examination room was generally very lax. The teachers all felt that if the students in this examination room had a little bit of ambition, their grades would not be so bad even if they cheated.

No need to worry about cheating at all.

completely……

.

!

The invigilator raised his eyes and was so shocked that he couldn't even close his mouth.

The trouble-making little bastard was chatting with the last student in the examination room.

He stood up quickly, straightened his face, and walked over seriously and knocked on Xu Song's desk.

Xu Song looked up tiredly and said "Oh" softly, as a response to the warning.

After the invigilator warned him, he walked back to the podium with his hands behind his back.

Ning Qingxu just remembered what he wanted to ask: "Have you finished writing?"

Xu Song turned his head silently, glanced at the questions that were mostly left blank, and said nothing.

Ning Qingxu flipped over his answer sheet. From his angle, he could see Xu Song's paper. He glanced at it and sighed.

Xu Song knew what his sigh meant and called him in a low voice: "Ning Qingxu."

Ning Qingxu looked at him, and Xu Song rolled his eyes at him, then turned away and ignored him.

Xu Song didn't know how he had spent the past two days. For the first time, he deeply understood what it meant to live every day like a year.

He only remembered Li Ziyan, the student council member, Li Tang... and Ning Qingxu. They left the examination room with smiles on their faces, while Xu Song had basically no hope of leaving.

He didn't understand. He seemed to have a vague impression of each problem and the solution, but he couldn't remember each step clearly. As a result, every problem he solved was vague.

One leaf tells us that autumn is coming and the weather is getting cooler.

A single leaf can reveal the trajectory of autumn's arrival. The ginkgo leaves brought a little bit of good mood to the young man on the eve of "accepting punishment".

Xu Song obviously noticed it. He went back home this week and met Jiang Songyu on the way and walked with him on the ginkgo leaf path.

Since the journey was not far, neither of them took a car. On the way, Xu Song chatted with him casually: "You are in your third year of high school, where do you want to go to?"

Jiang Songyu lowered his eyes, and when he heard him ask this question, he suddenly smiled and raised his head to look him in the eye: "With your grades, you've actually considered this. As for me, I don't care."

Xu Song saw him mocking him and threw his schoolbag over one shoulder.

While relentlessly scolding him: "What's wrong with my grades? You couldn't even beat me in the third year of junior high school. Besides, aren't you and I similar? We're both students at No. 4 Middle School."

Jiang Songyu retorted: "Son, I will definitely be in the top ten in the grade in this monthly exam, believe it or not?"

Xu Song knew that Jiang Songyu's grades had already reached incredible levels since he entered high school, so he rolled his eyes at him and said, "I believe it, but I probably guessed that he would be number one."

There are still a few months left before the college entrance examination, the only exam that can change one's destiny.

The unruly teenagers will separate, the years that witnessed youth will disappear, and the passionate love will also fade away and nothing will be left.

Ningcheng No. 4 Middle School is a famous school, and naturally there are reasons why it is a famous school... The speed of grading papers is extremely fast.

The results will be available on Monday after the exam on Friday.

"Ah? My idol isn't number one? You're kidding me!"

"I'll go to your brother's, you go and see for yourself."

"Holy crap, that's not true! Who is so awesome that he even beat out my idol? This is the first time, right? My idol never comes in second..."

"...It seems like your idol didn't even take second place."

The crowd was noisy.

Li Ziyan wanted to check out the leaderboard and asked Xu Song to go with him: "Guess who's number one this time?"

Xu Song lowered his head to fiddle with his phone, and without even looking back at her, he said, "Zhou Zixun."

After saying that, he just sent a message to Jiang Songyu: "Go check the rankings, you're probably in the top ten in your grade this time."

When he exited, he saw a name in the list, and then he remembered the amazing thing that Ning Qingxu did when he first met him and solved a problem for him.

There was also the incredible performance of Ning Qingxu that Yu Liping and the chemistry teacher talked about on the day of the sports meet.

He thought about it, put his phone in his pocket, and suddenly changed his words: "Not necessarily."

Li Ziyan suddenly became excited and tried to pretend to be calm, but his expression betrayed him.

He stood on tiptoe and supported Xu Song's forehead, and kept asking him, "Do you have a fever? Xu Song, don't scare me."

Xu Song thought that he must have watched too many dramas, so he gently pushed his hand away and pulled him towards the leaderboard.

The monthly exam results of No. 4 Middle School are usually posted on the ranking list. Some students do not care about the results and do not look at the ranking list. After the students return to the classroom, the head teacher will project the ranking list of the class on the screen.

The student council member was also there, lost in thought as he looked at the rankings. Amidst the clamor and bustle all around him, he was the only one standing there, strangely silent.

There was no expression on his face, and his gloomy expression made no clear meaning.

Xu Song first looked up from the last row, and he was the 6th from the last, but he was still quite stable.

I instinctively looked at the top line of words, which read "Ning Qing Xu".

Xu Song was somewhat surprised that he could actually take first place, and first in the grade. His total score even surpassed that of the student council member.

He was about to brag to Li Ziyan thinking that he was right.

Seeing that Li Ziyan’s expression was the same as that of the student council member, he also fell silent.

There was a not-so-tall girl standing next to Ning Qingxu. He was talking and laughing with the girl and was walking in the direction the girl pointed.

Seeing Xu Song also standing there looking at his ranking, he ran over with a smile. Xu Song saw him and greeted him as well.

The girl behind Ning Qingxu looked at Xu Song timidly, pursed her lips, lowered her head, hugged the book, and ran slowly after Ning Qingxu.

Xu Song turned off his phone and put it in his trouser pocket.

Ning Qingxu glanced at the name at the top, which read "Ning Qingxu".

The homeroom teacher would have given out a ranking list, but it was only for the class. To help them see more clearly how they stacked up against others, the school did something incredibly inhumane: They installed a special large screen, one for each exam room, showing the rankings and the total score.

He didn't say anything, and it seemed as if he had already known that the first place would be those three words.

Ning Qingxu walked to the side of the student council member and looked at the next person in the ranking. The name was unfamiliar, and he was probably some older guy.

He said, "Fourth."

The entire Ningcheng No. 4 Middle School was discussing this matter.

The student council member said expressionlessly, "So what?"

Li Ziyan had the same expression as the student council member. Like a photocopier, he pulled Zhou Zixun's clothes and led him out of the crowd.

Ning Qingxu didn't understand what Li Ziyan meant at all.

He noticed Xu Song was talking to the girl who came with him before, so he moved a little closer, but they didn't see him.

"Me? Oh, that's right. That classmate was a freshman. I was helping him find his way, and he passed by and asked me."

Xu Song nodded. The girl seemed unsatisfied and continued, "I heard he even surpassed Zhou Zixun. He's amazing! He's also very handsome! He..."

Xu Song just watched the girl getting more and more excited as she spoke, and it was almost as if "I like him like this" was written on her face.
