Chapter 89 Two articles were published in newspapers?
Not long after Wen Zhu left, Xu Niannian followed the cheerful Teacher Yan to the principal's office.
"Niannian, break time is about to end, where are you going?" a classmate passing by asked curiously.
Xu Niannian just smiled faintly, "Oh, Teacher Yan and I are going to the principal's office. There's something."
She deliberately didn't say what the matter was. Before the student could ask, she had already quickly caught up with Teacher Yan.
She wanted to make them curious. The more curious she was, the more envy she would receive. Then the criticism she had received from being taken away by the police would be overshadowed by this new honor.
She felt particularly happy inside and really wanted to see what Wen Zhu's expression would be when he found out that he had published the article before her.
Principal Sun looked at Teacher Yan and the unfamiliar student beside her and asked curiously, "Teacher Yan, why did you come to see me?"
Teacher Yan looked at Xu Niannian lovingly, "Xu Niannian, you go ahead and speak."
Xu Niannian straightened her back, took two steps forward, and handed the envelope to the principal. She said, "Principal, this is an article I wrote in my spare time. After seeing the reporter who interviewed me last time, I wanted to try to write down some of my thoughts and hope to win some honor for the school. I just gave it a try, but I didn't expect it to be recognized and published by the newspaper. Here is the newspaper, please take a look."
Principal Sun put on his reading glasses and took a closer look. "Her name is Xu Niannian, right?"
Then I saw that there was an article signed by "Xu Niannian", and I immediately stood up excitedly.
"Okay, okay, you guys are such talented students. Hahaha, you must give them special praise today!"
Teacher Yan's serious face rarely smiled.
"Yes, yes, this student has potential."
Xu Niannian smiled shyly, "It's all thanks to Teacher Yan and the principal, they taught me well."
Principal Sun's face was beaming with joy. Two students in the school had published articles at once, which really made her proud!
Principal Sun rubbed his hands excitedly.
"Well, you guys go back first. We're going to have the flag-raising ceremony soon. At that time, I'll invite Xu... yes, Xu Niannian, to speak on stage. You go back and prepare first."
After leaving the office, Teacher Yan still had a smile on his face, but he continued to persuade students earnestly.
"Xu Niannian, although it's a good thing that you have time to submit your article, and the teacher thinks it's worthy of praise, I still have to remind you that you will be taking the high school entrance exam soon, and getting into high school is your top priority right now. The most important things for us right now are the joint entrance exam and the math competition, both of which will be beneficial for your high school entrance exam. You can focus on these for now. After all, you can write the article anytime, but if you miss the chance to get into high school, you won't be able to get it back."
Xu Niannian agreed, but she didn't care in her heart. She despised Teacher Yan's ever-changing face. She had been strict with her before, but now that her article had been published, she was being nice to her.
And what did he say about doing it for her own good? Why could Wen Zhu write articles, but Xu Niannian couldn't? Ultimately, it was because he looked down on her and thought she was not as good as Wen Zhu.
The more they acted like this, the more she wanted to prove herself and impress everyone.
At the flag-raising ceremony, Principal Sun gave a speech and he excitedly went straight to the point.
"Now, I have two important announcements. First, let's welcome Wen Zhu, Qian Xusen, and Zhou Xiaoju from Class 1, Grade 3, to the stage with warm applause!"
Qian Xusen didn't know why he was called. He was stunned for a moment, then saw Zhou Xiaoju and Wen Zhu had already walked to the front. He ran two steps quickly and quickly caught up with them.
"Why did the principal ask us to go on stage? I've been very well behaved lately. I haven't been fighting or skipping school. I swear!"
"Maybe, to receive a commendation."
Qian Xusen scratched his head, unsure what to say. He had never imagined that one day he would be on stage, not to review his mistakes, but to receive praise. If his father knew about this, he would probably kowtow and burn incense at his ancestors' graves!
Although I often went on stage before, it was only to reflect on myself.
Qian Xusen, who laughs and jokes all day long and is never serious, feels a little embarrassed.
The three stood on the stage, and Principal Sun talked about how they had selflessly donated the joint examination papers to the school.
"We haven't taken exams in previous years, but this year our morale is high, and I have confidence in all of you, the third-year students. I hope you can do your best and live up to the hard-earned papers you brought back. Make good use of them and do your best in the joint exam!"
Then each of the three was given a certificate of "Selfless Dedication and the Most Sense of Collective Honor" and a pen as a reward.
Xu Niannian looked at the three people who were so proud of themselves, and she didn't feel envious at all.
Because, it's her turn soon!
After Qian Xusen and Zhou Xiaoju returned to the team, Wen Zhu was retained by Principal Sun.
"Next, we have two students whose work deserves recognition from the entire school. First, please invite Xu Niannian from Class 32 to the stage!"
Xu Niannian had already prepared to go on stage at any time, and she even wrote a speech in advance.
But the smile on his face couldn't help but fall when he saw Wen Zhu still standing on the stage.
I have already published the article in the newspaper, what does it have to do with her?
Although she didn't understand, she still walked onto the stage under everyone's gaze.
Looking at Wen Zhu standing next to her, she always felt that she was more beautiful than before.
The clothes she wore were also different from everyone else's; they were new and beautiful. The scars on her face were gone, leaving no scars and her skin looking even whiter and more tender. Most importantly, she was tall.
At 158cm tall, I was much shorter than Wen Zhu, who was about 164cm tall. My gray clothes looked worn out, and my skin was not as fair and tender as hers due to constant exposure to the wind and sun.
The original excitement disappeared at this moment.
Why doesn't she go down yet?
Xu Niannian felt that she did it on purpose.
But Principal Sun's next words directly shattered her fantasy.
"Student Wen Zhu not only excels academically, but also contributes to newspapers in his spare time and has successfully published his articles. He is truly worthy of our emulation!"
Of course, although our classmate Xu Niannian still needs to work harder on her grades, she has successfully submitted an article to the newspaper, and the article has been published in the new issue of the newspaper!
Both of them are excellent students. We should actively learn from them.
Now, let us give the warmest applause to congratulate the two students for winning honor for themselves and the school!"
Xu Niannian glanced at Wen Zhu in disbelief. She had clearly taken the original manuscript of the story, and after copying it, she threw it into the fire and burned it.
When did Wen Zhu submit her work again? Did she write another one?
Xu Niannian's mind was in turmoil. The honor and joy she had originally thought of were now gone because of Wen Zhu's existence.
All that remains is uneasiness.
Wen Zhu smiled happily and looked down at Xu Niannian, "Xu, I just took a look at the newspaper in the principal's hand. The article published under your name feels a little familiar to me."
The blood in Xu Niannian's body almost froze at this moment, and her face was completely bloodless.
