Back in the classroom, Yan Cuo still couldn't hide his inner joy. It wasn't until he sat down and looked at the test papers handed out by the class committee that he felt a sense of reality.
Several test papers were stacked together, the English one on top. At the very top, 150 was written. This was a perfect score, something Yancuo had never received before. Looking at the paper, it was densely packed with the fruits of his past hard work.
Yan Cuo suddenly thought of her first year in Ancheng, when she was sad and heartbroken because of her poor English grades.
God did not let his efforts go to waste. As time passed, everything changed. The only thing that remained unchanged was Yancuo's inner desire for knowledge and his vision for the future.
Yan Cuo stared at the test paper for a long time, not even noticing Su He approaching her. Su He glanced at the results on her test paper and shook her arm dejectedly. She came to her senses and looked at her, "What's wrong with you?"
Su He's face was droopy, and she looked lifeless. She took out her test paper and looked at Yan Cuo, "Yan Cuo, do you think I'm hopeless?"
Yan Cuo took her test paper and took a quick look at it. 132 was also a very good score.
"This is a pretty good result. This monthly exam was very difficult. It's already a good result for you to get this. Don't be discouraged, keep working hard."
Su He didn't feel relaxed at all after hearing this. He moved a stool and sat next to her. "My third place was taken away by someone else. I'm in a terrible mood now."
Yan Cuo was shocked. Su He's performance had always been very stable, and he had always been in the top three. But this time he was overtaken by someone.
She spoke cautiously, "Then who's third?"
Su He got even angrier when she asked this. Leaning close to her ear, he gritted his teeth and said, "It's Xu Xiaoxiao! She's actually ranked third! No one expected it! She actually shot up in just one month. She's always been in the middle of the class before. I really didn't expect it. I'm so upset. Why did it have to be her? Even if it was someone else, I wouldn't find it so hard to accept."
Su He grabbed his hair as he spoke, his face full of anxiety and depression. Looking at the test paper in front of him, he felt it was so dazzling.
Seeing her like this, Yan Cuo patted her shoulder comfortingly, "Don't worry, this only shows that she is very talented and must have worked very hard to achieve what she has today. Our Su He is not bad either. If she works harder, she will definitely surpass her."
Su He nodded vigorously, his face full of fighting spirit. "Yes! I won't lose to her. I, Su He, am afraid of no one. After all, my grades have always been among the best since I was young. I don't believe that I can't surpass Xu Xiaoxiao."
Yan Cuo nodded, "Well, don't worry, let's work hard together and make progress together."
Su He finally smiled, carefully opened the test paper and prepared to listen to Yan Cuo explain the mistakes. Suddenly, he patted his head and thought of something.
"By the way, do you know how many points Xu Lin got in the exam this time?"
Yan Cuo shook her head. She was only focused on her own results and didn't care about anyone else's. When she heard that she was first, she was so overwhelmed with joy that she didn't care about others.
Su He leaned closer and spoke mysteriously, "I only scored one point less than you. Isn't that weird? I got full marks in all other subjects, but my English was a little weaker. I only scored over 130 points. I guess my English teacher will invite me to have tea after the test."
Yan Cuo was stunned. As far as he could remember, Xu Lin's English grades had always been excellent. Ever since elementary school, he had always been at the top of his class. Almost no one could surpass him. Even he himself had never surpassed him.
After calming herself down, she tried to get rid of the strange feeling in her heart and said calmly, "Maybe it was a mistake. I can't hold on to my first place position. His grades are too good. Maybe next time I will return to my perpetual second place position."
He said this with a self-deprecating laugh. Compared to someone like Xu Lin, who had been gifted since childhood, his hard work was nothing. It all depended on whether he wanted to or not. If he did, no one could surpass him.
Seeing her like this, Su He hurried to comfort her: "It's okay, you are already very good, and An Da is very stable, don't worry too much."
Yan Cuo nodded, continued to look down at the test paper, and talked with Su He about the questions. Su He's grades in other subjects were very good except English. To be honest, if Yan Cuo had not been so hardworking now, he would not be able to reach Su He's grades.
The two of them talked to each other about the questions on the test paper, exchanged and supplemented each other's knowledge, and both had a deeper understanding. They had some insights into the problem-solving techniques for right and wrong questions, and were more confident about the next exam.
If one plus one equals two, then Yancuo and Suhe must be greater than one plus one. This is because they never stopped exploring, and even when faced with many setbacks, they never gave up. And it is precisely because they encouraged each other that they were able to make progress together.
Su He glanced at Yan Cuo and asked tentatively, "Yan Cuo, are we really going to Anda?"
Yan Cuo was a little surprised by her question, "Go, didn't we agree on this before?"
Su He shook his head. "Nothing, I'm just a little worried. Finance should be difficult. I feel like I'm so stupid that I can't even figure out the questions. I'm afraid I'll hold Gu Xuran back in the future."
Yan Cuo smiled when he heard this. "What am I talking about? Your worries are unnecessary. Your Gu Xuran is so smart. You just need to understand and trust him. Besides, studying is for ourselves. We also need to prove our own value instead of being someone else's appendage."
Su He glanced at her with some admiration in his eyes, "Yan Cuo, I find that you are becoming more and more confident now. I believe Yu Muyang must have played a big role. No matter what, I am really happy that you have become so confident and generous now."
Yan Cuo smiled, looking at her with a calm look in his eyes, "I used to be very timid. I didn't dare to fight for anything and was hesitant to do anything. But now it's different. I have a group of people like you around me. You are sunny and positive, and you are full of strength. Of course, I want to learn from you and become better and better.
Because I don't know when it started, I have been thinking that I must not be worse than others. I can't look at others with envy and cowardice in my eyes. The old Yan Cuo has been left in that Cloud City. Now I am a brand new person.
Su He looked at her for a long time without saying anything. She didn't get up until the bell rang. Before leaving, she patted Yan Cuo's shoulder and said softly, "From the moment I met you, I knew that this girl would be excellent, because there was desire in your eyes, a burning light."
