Autumn passed and spring came. In the blink of an eye, Yu Muyang was facing the high school entrance examination. He didn't have much time to go to and from school with Yan Cuo, so Yan Cuo went to and from school alone.
She felt a little lost, but she didn't dare to ask for anything. These more than a hundred days seemed to be stolen.
Such a wonderful person like him will definitely go to the best high school and the best university in the future. His life will be the best for the rest of his life.
As for himself, Yan Cuo thought, could he go to the best high school in Ancheng? He was too ordinary, without any brilliance, and even his grades were mediocre. How could he stand by his side?
Yan Cuo suddenly thought about why Yu Muyang was beaten before. Was there some grudge? He couldn't help but feel a little worried. But at the same time, he felt a little relieved. Fortunately, it was him who saw him that day and saved him. Otherwise, he would never be able to reach the level of someone with such a brilliant aura in his body.
Soon, Yan Cuo faced his first exam of the first semester of junior high school. Yan Cuo had been preparing for this exam for a long time, but he was still very nervous.
The best high school in Ancheng, with its strict admissions system, only had a small number of spots each year, and required top-notch performance in all subjects, with no bias in any one subject. Yancuo's biggest headache was English. Her pronunciation was always unrefined, and her pronunciation of words was often awkward, which made her afraid to speak.
Yan Cuo glanced at the junior high school building across the street. The atmosphere was tense, and almost no one was playing around outside. She had asked Su He before, and Yu Muyang was the top student in the grade, scoring equally in all subjects, with no bias at all. He was a true academic master.
She couldn't help but wonder what he was doing now, was he also doing his homework, would he be nervous, would he think of herself occasionally.
The time of waiting for the results was undoubtedly painful. Yan Cuo had already checked some answers with Su He, and he thought he should still maintain a mid-level this time and not make a breakthrough.
She calmed herself down, trying not to think about her grades. She really wasn't that smart. She'd worked so hard, yet she was still so far behind. If only, if only she could be like Yu Muyang, she could stand proudly beside him, without having to be like this. She couldn't even bear to think about it.
The day before the results came out, Teacher Tang asked the students to call Yancuo to his office. Yancuo remained silent all the way, as if he had noticed something.
When they arrived at the office, Teacher Tang did not smile gently this time. Instead, he looked at Yan Cuo with a slightly serious look: "Do you know why I asked you to come this time?" Yan Cuo lowered her head and said, "Teacher, did I fail the test? I'm sorry." Teacher Tang handed her an English test paper with a bright red number on it: 75 points.
Yan Cuo's eyes instantly turned red. He had only scored 75 out of a full 120 points. The red crosses all over his face seemed to be mocking his wishful thinking.
Oh, someone like you, dare you still dream of a high school with strict scores? Dare you still have that kind of dream? Dare you still...dream of that impossible person? Yan Cuo felt as if he was being mocked, and he lost all his strength. He stared blankly at the test paper.
Seeing her like this, Teacher Tang couldn't help but comfort her softly: "Yancuo, I can see that you have worked very hard. From the moment you entered our Class 3 of the first grade, Teacher Tang could see that you are a very hard-working child. However, when it comes to learning, it is not enough to just work hard. We must find the right method. You see, most of the mistakes you made are grammatical problems. When learning English, it is very important to learn grammar well. You can look at other students' notes more often and study more. In addition, your English listening is relatively poor. You can listen to more English magnetic materials, listen to other people's pronunciation more, and learn more. The teacher believes that you can learn well, so keep working hard."
Yan Cuo looked up at Teacher Tang and nodded: "Thank you, teacher. I will work hard, don't worry." After that, he walked out of the office.
When he walked into the classroom, his classmates were still playing around, but Yan Cuo felt a deep despair lingering in his heart: Can he really learn well?
Su He, who was not far away, saw Yan Cuo coming back and ran over quickly: "You're back, what did Teacher Tang ask you to do in the office?"
Yan Cuo looked at her and said softly, "My English score is not good this time. I may have disappointed the teacher." Su He was also a little discouraged when she heard it. "English, my English is not good either. I can't find a way to study. Rote memorization is useless. English listening is like listening to a foreign language. I am also desperate. I am good in other subjects, but English is bad. But it's okay, let's work hard together, listen to more tapes, take notes, and we will get better. Come on!"
Yan Cuo looked at Su He, and his smiling face was so beautiful. Yan Cuo encouraged himself, raised a smile and looked at Su He, "Then let's work hard together!"
Su He suddenly seemed to have discovered something and shouted excitedly: "Wow, Yancuo, I just realized that you look really beautiful when you smile. Your eyes are like crescent moons, curved. You should smile more in the future. It will be so beautiful." Yancuo lowered his head a little shyly, "Thank you, I will."
The day's classes ended, and Yancuo picked up his backpack and left the classroom. After hearing what Teacher Tang had to say, Yancuo changed his learning methods. He started discussing English with other students who were good at it, and began practicing speaking more.
It was difficult at first, but Yancuo believed that things would get better in the future. Looking at the road ahead, Yancuo finally found some motivation to work hard, to get closer to that person, and to stand shoulder to shoulder with him in the same position.
Along the way, there were many classmates who were finishing classes, laughing and playing. Seeing their parents coming to pick them up, and seeing the gentle or doting smiles on the faces of those classmates' parents, Yan Cuo was a little dazed.
My parents would never smile at me like this, they only feel annoyance towards me.
