Chapter 35 Chapter 35 Exclusive
After lunch, Lin Yimu and Huang Minglei returned to the classroom. They had originally planned to ask Mo Shanshan about her recent situation, but as soon as they reached the door of the classroom, they saw Mo Shanshan sitting in her seat, looking seriously at a math textbook in her hand.
Lin Yimu looked at Mo Shanshan who was reading seriously, and whispered to Huang Minglei, "She is quite serious. Let's go over quietly and don't disturb her."
Huang Minglei nodded in agreement, and the two of them quietly walked into the classroom from the back door and came behind Mo Shanshan to look at the book in her hand.
However, when the two looked carefully, they found that there was an extracurricular book, or a novel, mixed in the math textbook.
The two looked at each other and saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes. They didn't know when Mo Shanshan started reading this kind of extracurricular book.
In the end, Huang Minglei, who had the best relationship with Mo Shanshan, couldn't bear it anymore and reached out and took away the novel that Mo Shanshan was reading.
When Mo Shanshan's novel was taken away, her heart almost jumped out of her throat with shock. She thought that she was discovered by the teacher. She suddenly turned her head and looked behind her. She found that it was Lin Yimu and Huang Minglei, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.
"What are you two doing? You scared me to death!"
Huang Minglei flipped through the novel in his hand and found that it was still the same novel as before, but this time it seemed to be a new one.
Lin Yimu also glanced at the book curiously, and found that it was another melodramatic novel, so he withdrew his gaze with some disinterest.
Huang Minglei also flipped through the book in his hand, looking at Mo Shanshan in silence and annoyance, and said, "You don't study hard in class just for this kind of novel? Do you know that we are supposed to participate in the preliminary competition tomorrow?"
Seeing Huang Minglei's unhappy expression, Mo Shanshan lowered her head and whispered with a guilty conscience, "I know, so I just want to finish reading this book quickly and concentrate on the class."
Huang Minglei looked at Mo Shanshan, who looked guilty, and didn't know what to say for a moment. He also had no right to discipline her. After all, he was just a friend, not a parent. In the end, he just frowned and said, "Since you know what's going on, I won't say anything. You should be careful. You will participate in the competition tomorrow. Don't let your uncle and aunt worry."
After Huang Minglei finished speaking, he returned the book to Mo Shanshan and went back to his seat, his expression turning a little cold.
Mo Shanshan was holding a book and saw Huang Minglei's unhappy expression. She bit her lower lip with red eyes and didn't dare to say anything.
Lin Yimu looked at the two of them and blinked in confusion. Although he understood that Mo Shanshan's behavior had affected her studies, it shouldn't make Huang Minglei so unhappy, right?
However, Lin Yimu still reached out and patted Mo Shanshan on the shoulder to comfort her.
After returning to his seat, Lin Yi Mu stared at Huang Minglei curiously for a long time. Huang Minglei, who was reading, couldn't stand it anymore and glared at him. Only then did Lin Yi Mu look away.
But I was still very curious and asked, "Why are you so sullen? You're almost scaring me to tears."
Huang Minglei turned his head and glanced at him when he heard this. Seeing that he was really curious, he said, "I am really disappointed. If she continues like this, her grades will soon fall behind. Forget about the competition. I'm afraid she won't even be able to get into a good university."
After that, he sighed and continued, "I also can't bear to see her regret it in the future. After all, we have been friends since childhood. I don't know why her self-control has become so poor."
Lin Yimu looked at Huang Minglei's frown and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, you have talked to her this time. She herself knows that she is wrong now, and there will be no problem in the future. Look at your cold face, you almost scared her to tears." Then he turned his head and glanced at Mo Shanshan, who was obviously not very happy either.
Huang Minglei turned around and glanced at the listless Mo Shanshan after hearing this. He did not go up to comfort her, but just said, "It would be great if she could realize the harm. I'm afraid she will just indulge in reading novels and not study hard. As a friend, we can only remind her like this. As her friends, if she is worse than us in the future, we may drift apart."
Lin Yimu listened to Huang Minglei's words and knew that he, Mo Shanshan and Ye Yuankai grew up together. They had a good relationship and it was understandable that they wanted to help each other, so he didn't say anything more.
Although he and Mo Shanshan are also friends, their relationship is more distant compared to Huang Minglei, with whom he studies and progresses together.
Therefore, he would only give a few words of advice, and if the other party did not repent the first time, he would not waste his breath and annoy them.
Thinking of this, Lin Yimu sighed silently, and felt that he might be a little emotionally indifferent and unable to devote his wholehearted efforts to other people's affairs, unless it was something that interested him.
Huang Minglei and Mo Shanshan did not speak until the end of the last class in the afternoon, and the math teacher came to the class to explain to everyone the time and precautions for going to the preliminary competition venue tomorrow.
"Everyone, remember to bring your exam stuff. Tomorrow is the preliminary round. As long as you study hard and examine the questions carefully, it shouldn't be difficult for you. You don't need to go to the training class tonight. Go home and have a good rest. Don't be nervous. Gather at the school gate at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning. Remember the time and don't be late!"
After the math teacher finished speaking, he asked everyone to go home and rest.
When Lin Yimu returned home, he was surprised to find that his parents were there.
"Mom and Dad, why are you all at home? Don't you have classes at school today?" Lin Yimu said as he walked in.
Jiang Wanqiu just came out of the kitchen and saw her son coming back from outside. She smiled and said, "Today is Friday. The students in the school are on break. Classes will resume on Sunday afternoon. Did you become stupid because of all the time you spent in school?"
Lin Yimu put his schoolbag on the sofa, washed his hands, and went to the kitchen to help serve the food, saying, "I didn't calculate the time."
"You, the preliminary round will start tomorrow, right? How are you preparing? Don't fail the test, or you'll be embarrassed."
Jiang Wanqiu looked at her son's confused face with some amusement, and felt a little sad and proud in her heart. Who could have thought that her son could become so outstanding and independent in just one month, and even take part in a math competition tomorrow.
In fact, when Jiang Wanqiu and Lin Bohan knew that Lin Yimu was going to participate in the math competition, they were full of doubts. After all, they knew very well what kind of person their son was. He was not someone who could concentrate on studying.
However, after learning about their son's recent academic performance and the most recent online test, Jiang Wanqiu and Lin Bohan changed their attitudes toward their son. Although they still lacked confidence, they did not say anything to discourage him.
When Lin Yimu heard his mother's question, he was not nervous at all. Instead, he comforted Jiang Wanqiu and said, "Mom, don't worry. Your son can complete the senior high school math test under the supervision of thousands of netizens. There is nothing to worry about in a preliminary selection. I will definitely make it to the semi-finals. You and Dad can rest assured."
Hearing his son's self-praising pride, Lin Bohan said seriously, "Don't be proud. The difficulty of the competition test is different from those of the monthly exams. Be careful that you will fail the test."
Even Jiang Wanqiu warned him: "Your father is right. You can't be proud even if you are good at studying."
"I know, I know. I will never be proud and complacent, and I will take the exam seriously." Lin Yimu stretched out his hand and made a swearing gesture to promise.
The next morning, Lin Yimu got up early and found that his mother had already gotten up early and prepared breakfast.
"Mom, why are you getting up so early to cook? I can just go out and buy some food later. There's no need to work so hard."
Jiang Wanqiu put eggs, milk and bread on the dining table and said, "It's okay. I don't get enough sleep when I'm old, so I just made it for the convenience of the time. Come and eat quickly, and go to school after you finish eating."
Lin Yimu sat down at the dining table obediently and said while eating: "Mom, go back and take a nap. I will go to school after I finish eating."
Jiang Wanqiu looked at her son who was eating voraciously with a smile, and could only shake her head in amusement and go back to rest.
How could Lin Yimu not see that his mother had gotten up specially to make breakfast for him, with a tired look on her face and still in her pajamas?
After finishing breakfast, Lin Yimu checked his exam supplies to make sure they were in order, then walked out of the house towards the school.
When Lin Yimu arrived at school, it was ten minutes before 7:30. When he saw the math teacher standing at the school gate, before he could say anything, he heard the math teacher say, "Hurry up, hurry in. Are your things ready? Remember to find the examination room according to your examination number. You must carefully review the questions and go in quickly. The exam will start at 8:30."
Lin Yimu looked at the time on his phone. It was not yet half past seven, but he still said, "I know, teacher. I'm ready."
Lin Yimu walked into the school, looked at the test number in his hand and found his examination room. As soon as he entered the classroom, he found Huang Minglei was already sitting in the classroom.
"Wow, you're here so early!" Lin Yimu sat down in his seat and greeted Huang Minglei.
Huang Minglei was arranging his stationery. When he heard a familiar voice, he turned around and saw Lin Yimu with a smile on his face.
"Go to the examination room early to prepare. If you find that you forgot to bring something, you can make up for it in time. I didn't expect that we would be in the same examination room."
"I didn't expect that we would be in the same examination room." Lin Yimu said jokingly, "This shows that we are destined to be together! Isn't it true?"
"Go away, can't you be serious!" Huang Minglei turned his face away in disgust.
Lin Yimu looked at Huang Minglei's expression and laughed out loud.
Before the two could continue their conversation, several boys walked into the examination room one after another. They were apparently students from other schools. They were laughing and joking when they came in, but when they saw Lin Yimu and Huang Minglei sitting in their seats, they put away their laughing expressions and sat quietly in their respective seats.
When it was exactly eight o'clock, the invigilators walked into the examination room with the test papers.
