Chapter 36 Junior High School Graduation
Spent a few days wandering around the mall.
In the end, Lin Zichen successfully found an old man to be his purchasing agent.
This old man is a local landlord who owns several buildings for rent. When he has nothing to do, he usually wanders around the mall in shorts and slippers, helping to clean tables or rummage through trash cans to pick up empty bottles to sell.
I'm not short of money, but I just like picking up trash to save money.
Every time I pick up an empty bottle, I feel extremely satisfied and happy.
Lin Zichen simply told the old man that all the empty bottles in the house would belong to him from now on, and the old man smiled and agreed to buy them for him.
After having a purchasing agent.
The 30,000 yuan in hand was quickly spent.
He bought all the ghost squid meat and devoured it, swallowing thirty kilograms in a row, which directly increased the progress of opening the ghost squid album to 33%.
…
In the next half month of summer vacation.
Lin Zichen exercises every day, once in the morning, noon and evening, and each time is very intense.
During the breaks, he would call Shen Qinghan from home to help her train.
The days passed one by one.
When the summer vacation ends, the moment of second-year junior high school begins.
Lin Zichen's biological level has broken through.
Successfully broke through from ordinary level three to ordinary level four.
At the same time, all the body's data have been greatly improved.
Can easily lift 1090kg weight with one hand.
The vertical jump in place is as high as 5.65 meters.
The 100-meter sprint takes only 4.49 seconds.
However, if you look closely, you can find that the improvement of these three data is not as exaggerated as the previous two evolutions, which increased by several times or even doubled.
Lin Zichen could understand this. After all, the higher you go, the harder it is to become stronger, and the value of the increase in strength cannot continue to increase exponentially. It still depends on the original value.
Take strength, for example.
From 100kg to 400kg, the value is directly multiplied by four.
However, when increasing from 400kg to 800kg, the value is only doubled.
But the improvement of the latter is obviously greater than that of the former, with an additional increase of 100kg.
"I used to think that if I could break through to the Ordinary Fourth Stage before graduating from junior high school, I would be considered successful. I didn't expect that I would have successfully broken through in the second year of junior high school. It seems that I underestimated myself..."
Lin Zichen smiled and thought.
…
Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Lin Zichen and Shen Qinghan both took the high school entrance examination and successfully graduated from the junior high school department of Shanhai Middle School.
On the day of graduation, both sets of parents took time out to attend their graduation ceremony.
"Come on, you two, come closer and smile brighter!"
As always, Zhang Wanxin is responsible for taking photos of this childhood sweetheart, using photos to witness their growth at every stage of their school life.
When the two of them were taking photos, many girls around were watching.
Seeing that Shen Qinghan had pressed herself against Lin Zichen, the girls watching were all extremely envious and wanted to go up and pull Shen Qinghan away so that they could press themselves against Lin Zichen.
Feeling the envious gazes from the girls of the same age around her, Shen Qinghan felt so happy that she thought she was the happiest girl in the world.
Nearly half an hour passed.
The photo shoot is over.
Lin Zichen looked down at Shen Qinghan beside him and found that he had unknowingly become almost a head taller than her.
Shen Qinghan noticed his gaze, and immediately turned sideways, raised her extremely beautiful face, looked at him with watery eyes and asked:
"Why are you looking at the top of my head? Is there something stuck on it?"
"No, I just suddenly realized that I am almost a head taller than you."
"Don't talk nonsense. How can you be a head taller? We measured our heights a few days ago. You're 1.78 meters tall, and I'm 1.62 meters tall. That's only a 16-centimeter difference. A head difference means at least 20 centimeters."
Shen Qinghan pursed her rosy lower lip slightly, expressing her dissatisfaction with Lin Zichen's imprecise choice of words.
As the height difference between the two becomes larger and larger, she now cares a lot about her height and cannot tolerate even a centimeter less.
Lin Zichen corrected him, "Don't be so anxious. I meant almost a head taller. Don't forget the word 'quickly' in the middle."
Shen Qinghan said coquettishly: "I don't care. It can't be fast. It must be accurate to every centimeter!"
After she finished speaking, she looked at the increasing height difference between herself and Lin Zichen, and couldn't help but say with some worry: "You're almost 1.8 meters now. If you keep growing taller after entering high school, I'm afraid I'll have to stand on tiptoe to wipe the sweat off your face."
"You're overthinking it. You're so short that you can't even reach me by just standing on tiptoe. You'd have to at least stand on a chair."
Lin Zichen reached out and touched her head and teased.
"Ah, right, right!" Shen Qinghan rolled her eyes at him and said, "In a few years, I'll be so short that I can only jump up and hit your knees!"
Zhang Wanxin looked at the two of them with a wide smile on her face and said, "It's okay, Hanhan. If you can't reach it by standing on tiptoe, you can ask Xiaochen to hold you up so you can wipe the sweat off his face."
"Aunt Xin, you're laughing at me again~" Shen Qinghan's face suddenly turned red and she felt very embarrassed when Zhang Wanxin teased her like this.
Lin Zichen didn't feel anything, he just smiled and said nothing.
But then again, he hadn't hugged Shen Qinghan for a long time.
She used to hold him often in kindergarten. Every time during nap time at school, Shen Qinghan liked to crawl into his bed and hold him to sleep. In three years, she peed on him almost 100 times.
When she was in elementary school, I only held her in my arms a few times, but I carried her on my back quite often when walking.
As for the three years of junior high school, I only hugged her once when there was trouble caused by pagan believers, and I never hugged her again after that.
All I can say is, I've grown up after all.
The physiological differences between each other are becoming greater and greater, sexual characteristics are becoming more and more obvious, and people are becoming more sensitive to physical contact with the opposite sex.
Due to various concerns, I can no longer hug each other as freely as I did when we were children.
…
Half a month later.
The high school entrance examination results are out.
As everyone expected, Lin Zichen ranked first in the district.
Whether it is the cultural subjects or the physical test data required when applying for the martial arts class, they are absolutely the first in the district.
In fact, he could have ranked first in the city, but he thought it would be better to keep a low profile. Ranking first in the district was enough.
On Shen Qinghan's side, an accident happened.
He performed very well in the liberal arts exams, performing exceptionally well and ranking among the top 100 in the district, which is more than enough for him to be admitted to the high school department of Shanhai Middle School.
However, the physical test data did not meet the admission score for the elite martial arts class of Shanhai Middle School. He was eliminated because of the difference of more than ten points. This is a bit too much.
"Xiaochen, I've been working out really hard, but my physical fitness test scores just aren't going up. I don't think I'm cut out for martial arts."
Shen Qinghan lay flat on his bed, covering his eyes with his right arm, looking very discouraged.
Lin Zichen sat beside the bed and comforted her, "Don't lose confidence in yourself. You just didn't get into the elite class. You're already better than many people. Besides, you're still young. You're only 15 years old. Your body hasn't fully developed yet, so you still have great potential."
"What do you mean I'm still young? You're only one day older than me. How come you say that as if you can be my father?" Shen Qinghan couldn't help but complain.
Lin Zichen smiled and teased: "I don't mind being your father."
"Oh, you're so annoying. I'm so sad right now, and you're still making fun of me!"
Shen Qinghan reached out and hit Lin Zichen, but not very hard, just like the flirting between lovers.
After saying that, she quickly added with a look of helplessness, "We both haven't fully developed yet, but your physical test data looks much better than mine. Compared to you, I'm like a useless homebody."
Lin Zichen was just about to comfort her when the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
It was Zhang Wanxin calling.
When he answered the phone, he found out that it was the principal of the high school department of Shanhai Middle School who came to his house, specially to visit him, the genius student who had ranked first in the district.
The purpose of the visit was to ensure that he would be admitted directly to the high school department of Shanhai Middle School instead of being secretly poached by other high schools.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Zichen looked at Shen Qinghan on the bed and said, "Hanhan, the principal of the high school department is coming to my house. Come with me to take a look."
"I don't want to go..." Shen Qinghan was in a bad mood and just wanted to stay in the room quietly.
Lin Zichen advised gently, "You should go with me and say hello to the principal so that he can get to know you better. We can continue to sit at the same table in the same class after school starts."
Hearing this, Shen Qinghan pursed her lips, had to get up from the bed dejectedly, and followed Lin Zichen to meet the principal of the high school department.
After all, with her average physical test data, she would definitely not be able to enter the high school's elite martial arts class.
If he still wanted to be in the same class with Lin Zichen, he could only use his relationship with Lin Zichen to get in through the back door and become a person with connections, just like he did when he was in elementary school.
