As they walked, Teacher Ye said gently, "I heard you're going to participate in the No. 1 Middle School Encyclopedia King Challenge? Don't slack off on your studies either, the midterm exams are coming up soon."

Xie Li was stunned for a moment, then realized that the midterm exam meant that rankings would be conducted, which was also the opportunity to enter the elite class.

Sure enough, Teacher Ye said, "I have been paying attention to your homework. Although your foundation is weak, you have completed your homework very well and you have digested and applied the knowledge points very well. You should have no problem getting into the advanced class."

Xie Li's situation was special, even more so than Ming Xiaoxiao's, who came from a small town. She had actually prepared herself mentally.

After all, I didn't study much in junior high school, and the pace of Linjiang No. 1 Middle School is fast, so it's understandable that I can't keep up.

But to her surprise, Xie Li, who seemed unassuming, brought her little surprises every day.

"Keep up the good work! Your teacher has high hopes for you!" Teacher Ye said with a smile.

Xie Li nodded, a hint of warmth in her eyes: "Teacher, I will get into the top fifty in the grade."

Not far away, Wenling, who happened to witness the two talking, pushed up his glasses with an icy expression and turned to walk towards the Rocket Class.

Getting into the top class? Don't you even know your own capabilities before you're talking big?

Although it's unclear why Xie Li became the young lady of the Zhenye Group, leading to Teacher Ye and the Dean of Students protecting her at every turn, Xie Li's attempt to get into the elite class through underhanded means is nothing but a pipe dream!

——

The Xie family.

In the afternoon, Ding Huizhu invited Mrs. Huo the Second to have afternoon tea.

She was in a good mood, and the He family was very understanding. The moment the miracle doctor cured He Jingxuan, the housekeeper specially delivered a generous gift to their door.

This was a scene she hadn't seen in many years, and she couldn't help but feel triumphant, as the annoyance she had felt from Xie Li's disobedience completely dissipated.

Looking at the generous gift from the He family, Madam Huo couldn't help but smile: "Ziyuan really makes you look good."

Madam He came from a prestigious family in the capital. Although she married into Linjiang City, she spent most of the year in the capital and never mingled with the noblewomen of Linjiang City.

After all, her family background was prestigious and her connections were strong, so no one dared to object.

Ding Huizhu smiled contentedly: "Ziyuan, you've really worked hard."

"It's all thanks to Miss Ziyuan for bringing the miracle doctor over; otherwise, we would have been in big trouble today," Aunt Wan said with a smile as she brought up some snacks.

"I heard that Miss Ziyuan has already tried to refine intermediate-level pills on her own, and she may be able to directly apply for intermediate-level alchemist qualification by the end of the year!"

Madam Huo was surprised: "Really?" Then she smiled and said, "That's wonderful!"

If that's the case, the Huo family would better hurry up and finalize the marriage between Huo Yuntang and Xie Ziyuan.

Xie Ziyuan is so outstanding, and she has always been in the capital. What if the families in the capital also take a liking to Xie Ziyuan's talent?

Although she always had confidence in her son, Madam Huo was always cautious in her actions and did not want anything to slip out of her control.

Madam Huo silently pondered the situation, and the smile on her face became much more amiable.

“Then we Yuntang will probably have to stay in the capital for a while longer. We can’t leave Ziyuan there alone. At least we’ll have someone to help her out.”

As the two were talking, Aunt Wan suddenly held up her phone: "Madam, Miss Ziyuan is calling."

"What a coincidence! She probably wanted to know about the He family. Ziyuan is such a thoughtful child," said Madam Huo with a smile.

Ding Huizhu smiled as well, saying that Xie Ziyuan had always been sensible and polite in this regard, and always did things beautifully, never missing any manners.
