At the beginning of the new semester, the school's competition preparations are in full swing.
In addition to the class on Wednesday, there is an extra class on the weekend, which is still voluntary.
Zhou Xiu was busy with studies after school started and could only help out during the weekends. She helped Zhou Chengzhang set up the stall and was rushing to school, but unfortunately she encountered rush hour and was half an hour late.
Zhou Xiu sneaked in from the back of the classroom. The classroom was packed. There were unexpectedly many new faces attending the class today.
As the competition approached, the second-year mathematics group organized competition preparations. As long as the students registered to participate in the competition, they could come to listen to Lao Wang’s class.
Zhou Xiu chose a seat in the last row and sat down.
Xie Cheng and Xi Shaoyuan always came very late, so the seats closest to the back door were their fixed seats.
Xie Cheng and Xi Shaoyuan, who were working on the questions, took a look and looked away.
Zhou Xiu sat down in the empty seat next to Xi Shaoyuan. After a while, Xi Shaoyuan stood up and went to the bathroom.
When he came back, Zhou Xiu discovered that Xi Shaoyuan had walked around to the other end and sat next to Xie Cheng.
Xie Cheng, who was doing his homework, and the male classmates next to him reluctantly moved a few places and gave their seats to Xi Shaoyuan.
Zhou Xiu pursed her lips.
The eldest son of the Xi family continued to avoid her as usual.
She turned her gaze back to the classroom and looked around. All the students were writing their test papers.
Xie Cheng's phone vibrated.
He opened his phone and found a new message quietly lying on it: "To Zhou Xiu."
After reading the message, he looked down and saw that there was indeed a blank test paper in his drawer. Xie Cheng moved his eyes to the left.
Xi Shaoyuan stopped writing the test paper and closed his eyes for a nap.
Xie Cheng casually handed the test paper to Zhou Xiu, "You can write the extra ones."
Zhou Xiu took the test paper gratefully.
The moment she received the test paper, Lao Wang on the podium suddenly called on someone to answer the question:
"Zhou Xiu, please tell us the steps to solve these three big questions."
Lao Wang is a very principled teacher who hates being late or absent from class. Last time, a student who was late was called to his office by him and scolded for ten minutes. When he came out, he had a test paper in his hand.
The top students around Zhou Xiu who knew she was late all looked at her with pity.
Xi Shaoyuan and Xie Cheng also noticed the movement and glanced at Zhou Xiu.
The two boys looked at each other, and Xi Shaoyuan kicked Xie Cheng privately. Xie Cheng stopped writing reluctantly, his Adam's apple rolling as he was about to speak.
Zhou Xiu shook her head helplessly and whispered, "It's okay."
She looked up at the angry Lao Wang on the podium, stood up quickly, took her test paper, and began to read the questions.
Zhou Xiu's clear voice could be heard in the spacious classroom.
Zhang Qi and Xu Haobo, who were also sitting in the back row, heard Zhou Xiu read out the question and turned their heads to look at her in surprise.
They didn't know that Zhou Xiu was late and was caught by Lao Wang again. It was just a bit strange to hear Zhou Xiu read the question like that.
Soon Zhou Xiu finished reading the question and began to recite the steps to solve the problem sentence by sentence.
Xie Cheng looked at Zhou Xiu reading out the steps to solve the problem on the blank test paper, and raised his eyebrows unexpectedly at this moment.
A ripple finally appeared in the calm eyes.
Lao Wang at the podium took out a piece of chalk and wrote down what she read. Every time Zhou Xiu read a sentence, he would write one. Gradually, the top students sensitively noticed that Lao Wang's angry expression was gradually disappearing.
Only after Zhou Xiu finished reading the solutions to the three big questions did Lao Wang ask her to sit down.
When Zhou Xiu uttered the last number, the top students around her were all stunned and looked at each other.
Such a magical scene actually...happened right under their noses?
Some students even stood up and took a look at the answers on Xie Cheng's paper and found that they were exactly the same as those reported by Zhou Xiu.
They appeared indifferent on the surface, but tears welled up in their hearts.
Why would they want to receive this kind of critical hit at close range?
I looked at myself and saw that I had spent more than half an hour just to finish the second big question, and I felt insulted about my IQ.
They even suspected that Zhou Xiu had read the standard answer in advance and memorized it. Otherwise, how could he do such a weird thing?
Zhou Xiu’s improvement during this winter vacation is...too rapid, isn’t it?
Lao Wang snorted and was finally satisfied. He said seriously, "Zhou Xiu, come up and get a test paper to write."
Zhang Qi and Xu Haobo's brows gradually furrowed, as they always felt that the atmosphere between Lao Wang and Zhou Xiu was a bit weird. Why does Lao Wang seem to be targeting Zhou Xiu?
It was not until the moment Zhou Xiu put down the test paper that Zhang Qi noticed that the test paper in Zhou Xiu's hand was blank.
Clean and tidy, nothing written on it.
Zhang Qi was suddenly frightened and turned his head back.
…
When Zhou Xiuying went to the podium to collect the test paper book at the teacher's request, some unusual movements occurred in the class.
This class is the first class of the mathematics competition class this semester, and many students have never seen Zhou Xiu.
When Zhou Xiu took the test paper from Lao Wang, the eyes of the whole class froze.
In my sight, a slender girl went up to the podium and took back the test paper. She was wearing a black and white school uniform, her hair was smooth and delicate like honey, her eyebrows and eyes were as beautiful as the distant mountains covered with mist and rain, and she was very spiritual.
Although she still wore school uniform on weekends, the shabby uniform unexpectedly made her look youthful.
"This is... Zhou Xiu?" Qi Yaguang asked in amazement.
This was the Zhou Xiu she knew. The nose was the same, the features were the same, nothing had changed.
Lu Lingshan looked away and said, "Yeah."
The boys couldn't help rubbing their eyes. The people in Winner's class then remembered what Zhang Qi had said a few days ago: Zhou Xiu was indeed becoming more beautiful.
The boys in the Rocket Class were the most surprised. They were so amazed that they whispered, "It would be great if Zhou Xiu came to the Rocket Class."
"She actually looks pretty?"
As soon as he finished speaking, these boys were covered in test papers by other girls.
Xie Cheng finished writing the ten questions, turned the pen in his hand, and asked Xi Shaoyuan: "Not pursuing?"
He said calmly: "Their eyes were all fixed."
Xi Shaoyuan closed his eyes to rest, gently turned his head to the other side, and said in a tired voice: "No pursuit."
…
Zhou Xiu returned to her seat with the math test paper.
Normally, Zhou Xiu would be very happy if she got Lao Wang's test paper, but now there is only half a month left before the biology competition, and Zhou Xiu does not have that much time to write the math test paper.
After school, Lao Wang specifically told Zhou Xiu, "Give it to me when you finish writing it next week. Don't be late again next time."
Zhou Xiu nodded, and Lao Wang left with satisfaction.
She glanced at the watch on her wrist, then simply opened the test paper and started writing. Zhong Simiao asked Zhou Xiu to have dinner with him and asked her, "Aren't you leaving yet?"
Zhou Xiu raised her head and said, "I'll go later. I want to finish the test before I leave."
What Zhong Simiao understood as "finishing the test paper" was finishing one test paper. After listening to Zhou Xiu's words, she made an appointment with others to have dinner and left the classroom.
Xi Shaoyuan understood what he said and stopped.
Xie Cheng packed his bag and wanted to leave, but found that Xi Shaoyuan had not left.
Xi Shaoyuan not only left, but also sat back in his seat and held him.
Xie Cheng glanced at Zhou Xiu's figure and understood. He sat back in his seat, propped his ear with one hand, and twirled the pen.
The top students around Zhou Xiu were all stunned when they saw this scene. They were so stiff in packing their bags that they felt as if their feet were filled with lead as they walked towards the classroom door.
Let’s not go. I’m so hungry.
Go away, how dare you leave? The top students all stayed behind to write the test papers.
Why are there such...smart and hardworking students? Are there no chances for ordinary people to survive?
After intense mental struggles, several students stayed behind and took out their math test papers from their schoolbags and started writing.
So they simply started writing in the same test book that Zhou Xiu used, which Lao Wang gave them. As a student of Lao Wang, who doesn’t have a few test papers?
Especially those students who are often late.
Zhou Xiu went to the cafeteria to have lunch and returned to the classroom on time half an hour later.
She took out her mobile phone and opened the live broadcast background which she had not logged into for several days, and found that there were a lot of rewards piled up, although most of them came from the system.
"YH" firmly topped the reward list, receiving 4,298 RMB in rewards in a week.
After deducting half of the profits taken by the platform, what Zhou Xiu gets is exactly the system reward she earned that week.
In addition, Zhou Xiu also received a reward of 666 RMB from the fan "Strive to Break into Guojin". Zhou Xiu then remembered that she had drawn biological analysis diagrams for this fan. These scattered incomes were unexpected wealth for Zhou Xiu.
Zhou Xiu's live broadcast was very boring, but there were still a few random fans leaving messages:
"It's really intoxicating to watch the anchor write the test paper. The anchor must be a very hard-working student!"
"Today is also the day to wait for the big guy's live broadcast."
"Learning is something that pays off. Come on, anchor!"
Zhou Xiu switched to silent mode and started a live broadcast of herself writing the test paper. But this time she was writing a math competition test, which would probably be more boring than writing a biology test.
Zhou Xiu stopped caring about it after she started the live broadcast.
The school still rang the bell as usual on weekends. Except for going out for activities during breaks, Zhou Xiu used the class time to write math tests.
During lunch break, there were only a few students left to write the test papers. In the classroom, besides Zhou Xiu, Xie Cheng and Xi Shaoyuan, there were only two other top students still persisting.
Xie Cheng couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell asleep on the table while writing.
It's still chilly in spring, and the temperature is still not high. Xie Cheng is only wearing a thin sweater, so it's easy for him to catch a cold.
After Zhou Xiu finished the test paper, she glanced at Xie Cheng who was fast asleep beside her, and said to the boy at the back table, "Go and help him put on his coat."
On the other side, Xi Shaoyuan, who was reading a book, froze in his hand when he heard Zhou Xiu's words.
The boy who was accidentally approached picked up Xie Cheng's coat that was lying on the chair and put it on him.
After he finished putting on the clothes, he suddenly remembered and complained, "Zhou Xiu is right next to us, why don't you just put on some clothes for Xie Shen?"
Another girl rolled her eyes speechlessly: "Didn't you see Zhou Xiu was writing the test paper? Tsk, you still have to complain about such a small thing."
Is the nerd's hand used for such trivial things? The nerd's hand is obviously used to write test papers...
They kept writing until the sun set in the afternoon. Even the last two top students had left. At this time, they had already finished two test papers.
Before leaving, he glanced at Zhou Xiu, retracted his frightened gaze, and looked at each other.
Zhou Xiu has finished six test papers.
Although the test paper given by Lao Wang is of average difficulty and not at the level of a competition paper, it is small but complete and it still takes a lot of effort to finish it.
evening.
Lu Lingshan came to the school to tutor mathematics and found a special teacher from the senior grade group. When she passed by the lecture hall, she stopped and looked inside.
Xi Shaoyuan was flipping through a book aimlessly.
Xie Cheng was wearing a piece of clothing and sleeping with his head tilted on the table.
Zhou Xiu was sitting a few seats away, on the other side of Xie Cheng, writing the test paper with his back straight.
The afternoon sun shone into the classroom, and the scene was unexpectedly dazzlingly harmonious. She took out her cell phone, found an angle, and removed Xi Shaoyuan.
A photo was taken using a different angle of angle, showing Xie Cheng sleeping and sitting intimately beside Zhou Xiu.
The afternoon sunlight like broken mercury fell on the girl's body and her hair. The boy beside her showed his handsome face, sleeping soundly and without any guard.
…
Xie Cheng woke up in the evening. He yawned lazily and squinted his eyes to find that Xi Shaoyuan had finished reading a book.
Zhou Xiu has finished six test papers and has four left.
Xie Cheng also took out the test paper and glanced at Xi Shaoyuan, showing no intention of leaving.
He knocked on the table and said to Zhou Xiu, "Finish it before nine o'clock."
Zhou Xiu raised her head in surprise, loosened her stiff hands, and nodded.
Xie Cheng went to the bathroom and when he came back he sat next to Xi Shaoyuan and pushed him back to his original seat.
So Xi Shaoyuan sat next to Zhou Xiu.
Xie Cheng gently twirled the pen, and the tip of the pen began to write smoothly, regaining his former energetic and focused demeanor.
Xi Shaoyuan glanced at Xie Cheng with a dark face.
At this moment, on his left was Zhou Xiu who was writing the questions seriously, and on his right was Xie Cheng who stood still. He was silent for a moment, accepted the reality, took out the test paper and started writing.
When Xi Shaoyuan was writing the test paper, even though he tried his best to control himself, his eyes inevitably fell on Zhou Xiu.
He allowed himself one minute, just one minute.
The clock was ticking and the second hand completed a circle. He read it greedily, turned around and quietly started writing the test paper.
When it was time for dinner, the Xi family's housekeeper delivered three hot meals to the school.
He said to Zhou Xiu affectionately, "Xiu Xiu, eat. Aunt Niu made this specially when she heard that you were here too. Master, Master Cheng, don't rush to write. Eat first."
Xie Cheng finished his dinner leisurely, and started to do the same test paper as Zhou Xiu with full energy.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Xi Shaoyuan finished his test paper, closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair and fell asleep.
At half past nine, Zhou Xiu finally finished the test paper. She stretched and just turned around when she bumped into someone next to her.
There was a sudden heaviness at her shoulder. It was Xi Shaoyuan who leaned his head on Zhou Xiu's shoulder.
The warm breath sprinkled on Zhou Xiu's neck, the boy's long eyelashes were close at hand, and the teardrop mole at the corner of the eye glowed clearly.
Xie Cheng was already sitting at the other end, concentrating on writing the test paper.
Zhou Xiu pushed Xi Shaoyuan away expressionlessly and quickly packed up her test paper, draft paper and pen.
Just before Xi Shaoyuan woke up and spoke, Zhou Xiu stood up with her schoolbag on her back and said, "You came here by yourself, don't talk nonsense."
Xi Shaoyuan opened his eyes hazily, woke up instantly, stood up and said "hmm" vaguely.
Even Zhou Xiu could hear how much frustration and regret were contained in this voice.
Zhou Xiu: “…”
Xie Cheng raised his head and asked, "Have you finished writing? Then go back."
Zhou Xiu turned off the live broadcast on her phone, left the classroom with her schoolbag on her back, and walked down the stairs.
Xie Cheng, who was slowly packing up his things in the back, said to Xi Shaoyuan: "Why?"
He asked again: "Not chasing?"
Xi Shaoyuan was too lazy to answer him.
Xie Cheng looked at the moonlight and said, "I like girls who have clear goals and are smart."
"If you don't chase me, I will."
Xi Shaoyuan stopped walking, and after a while he said calmly, "You can't catch up with me."
…
Zhou Xiu was about to walk to the subway station. Just as she took out her transportation card, she found a Phaeton following behind her.
Xie Cheng lowered the car window and called Zhou Xiu: "Zhou Xiu will take you home, get in the car."
Zhou Xiu took a look and shook her head: "No, thank you."
Xie Cheng watched as the slender figure quickly merged into the crowd rushing to the subway and disappeared. Xi Shaoyuan beside him couldn't help but curl his lips.
