Chapter 15 Red List
Lin Xi looked at her sister in front of her.
Although Lin Yuan tried his best to suppress it, he could still see sadness, disappointment, and more importantly, anxiety in her eyes.
This 21-year-old girl gave up her studies, took on the burden of the family, and had to worry about her mother's illness and her sister's studies.
Lin Xi reached out and smoothed the wrinkles between her brows, took her hand, and said softly, "Sister, I have my reasons for participating in "Extreme Survival". I will tell you later. And you don't have to worry about my studies. I have my own arrangements."
Lin Yuan hesitated to speak. Her sister seemed to answer her, but actually said nothing.
She had so much advice and warnings in her heart, but under her sister's extremely calm gaze, she suddenly couldn't utter a single word.
She was silent for a long moment, then sighed, "Well, then, tell me when you want to. You'll be eighteen soon, so think carefully about how you want to live your life."
Over the weekend, Lin Xi got up early in the morning, tied two sandbags on his legs and ran to a nearby park to do physical training. After the training, he did a set of boxing.
Then go home to have breakfast and read.
I set up a stall with Lin Yuan in the evening. I help when it is busy and read when it is free.
On Monday morning, Lin Xi took the bus to school.
The lobby downstairs of the senior high school teaching building was crowded with students at this time.
After each monthly exam, the school will post a red list in the lobby.
There are two red lists, and only the top 100 students in the liberal arts class and the science class are eligible to be on the list.
When Lin Xi walked over, a few people squeezed out from inside, and one of them suddenly shouted, "Lin Xi is here!"
In an instant, the students who were looking at the list turned around in unison and stared at Lin Xi.
Lin Xi looked over the crowd and looked towards the top of the red list.
On the red list of the liberal arts class, the word "Lin Xi" was ranked first.
The score was written behind the name: seven hundred and forty-one.
Lin Xi was not very happy when she saw the score. Her high score this time had a lot to do with luck. She hadn't even had time to read the Chinese textbook yet. She answered the questions entirely based on her knowledge from her previous life. She still had to hurry up and read the Chinese textbook.
Suddenly, she thought of something and took out her cell phone to take a picture of the red list.
At this moment, someone else shouted, "Chen Wenxuan is here!"
Chen Wenxuan, who had been firmly at the top of the grade since his freshman year, walked in slowly from outside.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Wenxuan, and some even smiled in ambiguous ways.
As the top student in the grade and the teachers' favorite, Chen Wenxuan has long been accustomed to being surrounded by all kinds of gazes.
He walked over slowly and stood next to Lin Xi, looking up at the red list.
His name was not at the top of the red list. Chen Wenxuan was stunned for a moment, thinking that he must have looked at the wrong red list of the science class, and quickly shifted his gaze to another red list.
Then, Chen Wenxuan's gaze froze. His name was not at the top of the other red list.
And right on this red list, two words were written neatly: "Science".
Chen Wenxuan's heart suddenly contracted, and he moved his gaze to another list again. The top of the red list was written "Liberal Arts", but the first place was a name he was not familiar with - "Lin Xi"!
Below Lin Xi is Chen Wenxuan!
Lin Xi scored 741, while his score was only 718!
Chen Wenxuan's face turned pale and his eyes seemed to lose focus.
When the students around saw this scene, they all had different feelings.
Someone whispered, "Why do I suddenly feel that Chen Wenxuan is quite pitiful?"
The person next to him curled his lips, "Pathetic? Are you crazy? Even if he wasn't first, he still scored over 700 points. You're 200 points less than him, and you think he's pitiful?"
Someone else whispered, "I've long been fed up with Chen Wenxuan's arrogant attitude. He deserves a taste of failure!"
Someone shook their head, "Lin Xi is just too amazing! This score is simply not something a human can achieve!"
Today's liberal arts exams, especially the comprehensive liberal arts exam, are incredibly complex. Politics is interspersed with history, and history with geography. You absolutely must integrate all of this knowledge. Otherwise, even if you were given the textbook and asked to take an open-book exam, you wouldn't be able to achieve such high scores.
At this moment, Chen Wenxuan muttered to himself absentmindedly: "Who is Lin Xi?"
Someone immediately pointed and said, "Look, that's Lin Xi."
Lin Xi had already turned around and left. Chen Wenxuan turned around and only saw the back of a young girl.
The girl had a ponytail and was wearing a school uniform. She was tall and slim and was walking up the stairs step by step.
Chen Wenxuan's face turned paler.
It’s actually a girl!
He actually lost to a girl!
He pursed his lips, squeezed out of the crowd silently, and walked away quickly.
As soon as Lin Xi walked to the classroom door, she received a wave of admiring and envious glances.
Someone else whispered, "The God of Learning is here!"
There were many people who went to watch the fight yesterday. If they were deeply impressed by Lin Xi's heroic performance yesterday, they were shocked again by Lin Xi's despairing score today.
I don't know who started clapping in the classroom, and then everyone saluted Lin Xi and clapped loudly.
Lin Xi gave everyone a gentle smile and quickly walked to her seat and sat down.
Zhu Tingting clapped her hands while her head turned to Lin Xi. She sighed, "If I hadn't been your best friend for three years and was familiar with every fiber of your being, and knew you were still the real Lin Xi, I would have really suspected that someone had possessed you!"
"How come you've suddenly become so awesome?"
Lin Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I had no choice. Teacher Yu forced me to do it."
"If I don't get first place in the exam, she won't grant me leave."
Zhu Tingting was speechless. She waved her hands and said, "I suspect you've been hiding your abilities until the college entrance exam to reveal your true self as a genius student!"
Lin Xi smiled and agreed. It was reasonable for Zhu Tingting to think so, as she couldn't tell anyone about her powerful spiritual awareness and expanded brain area.
Zhu Tingting suddenly hugged Lin Xi and rubbed against her, "I don't care, no matter how awesome you become in the future, I'm determined to hold onto your thighs!"
Liu Yuan leaned over from behind and gave Lin Xi a flattering smile, "And me, and me. Lin Xi, when you become successful in the future, you must take your sisters with you!"
Lin Xi just smiled and said nothing.
At this time, the bell rang, and the first class was Teacher Yu’s English class.
Several people quickly separated and took out their English books.
Teacher Yu came in from the classroom door with a smile on her face, and her arms swayed gracefully as she walked.
As soon as she came in, her eyes fell on Lin Xi, and her face was full of smiles. The kindness that was about to break through the sky made the classmates feel jealous.
Someone at the back of the classroom deliberately smiled and asked, "Teacher Yu, you seem to be in a good mood today!"
