Seeing Zhou Xiu leaving in a hurry, Xu Qing's smile did not last long. He chased after her and called her.
Zhou Xiu stopped and turned to ask Xu Qing: "Squad Leader, is there anything else?"
Xu Qing stared at Zhou Xiu's face, without any shy reaction that a girl might have. His words paused and circled around his lips, and finally he only said:
"Zhou Xiu, I wish you good luck on your exam tomorrow."
Zhou Xiu pinched the strap of her schoolbag, "Yes, I will. Class monitor, you too."
Sunday, early in the morning.
The school organized students to go to No. 4 Middle School to take the biology competition.
The system woke Zhou Xiu up early, "Young man, get up and go fight." 】
[Ding——Won the first prize in the preliminary round of the Biology Competition League, and was rewarded with 5,000 RMB. The top 5 in the preliminary round will be rewarded with RMB 10,000 to 15,000, and the top 3 will be rewarded with RMB 15,000 to 30,000.
The system repeated.
Zhou Xiu pursed her lips and said, "No need to repeat, I remember it all." 】
How could Zhou Xiu forget such an important opportunity to make money? Zhou Xiu will never forget the feeling of having no money to study and being forced to drop out of school, and she will never forget how her fate was almost determined by 50,000 yuan.
Zhou Xiu would never miss any opportunity that he could seize.
Zhou Xiu skillfully tied a ponytail in front of the mirror.
A clean face was reflected in the mirror. The skin was so tender that you could pinch water out of it after washing it. The girl was wearing a neat school uniform, lowering her head and rolling up her sleeves neatly.
After breakfast, I quickly went to school to gather and followed the students from the biology class to take the school bus to No. 4 Middle School to take the exam.
No. 4 Middle School is a well-known key school in the city, a century-old prestigious school with many famous top students.
After arriving at No. 4 Middle School, the students from Yude sighed, "There are so many students in No. 4 Middle School."
Other students couldn't help but sigh, "But our school still looks bigger."
The total number of students from Yude who came to participate in the biology competition did not exceed one class. The number of students from No. 4 Middle School who participated in the competition totals half the number of students from Yude.
After arriving at No. 4 Middle School, the students from Yude Biology Class were trembling with fear.
When the students of No. 4 Middle School heard that students from other schools complained that their school was small, they turned their heads and looked at the Yude students.
The biology teacher from No. 4 Middle School saw Mr. He from Yude and walked past them arrogantly.
Among the students participating in the biology competition this year at the key No. 4 Middle School is a transfer student from Yude. She is Yue Shi, who was punished during a monthly exam. After dropping out of Yude, Yue Shi accepted Lu Lingshan's arrangement and entered No. 4 Middle School.
She was surprised to see Zhou Xiu and Xu Qing in the crowd, especially the change in Zhou Xiu, which was so great that it was unacceptable.
Yue Shi's classmate at No. 4 Middle School asked her, "Why do you look like that?"
Staring at someone angrily, as if facing an enemy.
The girl suddenly realized: "Is it that the person who caused you to leave Yude with hatred and accusation is also participating in the competition?"
She quickly found Zhou Xiu, who Yue Shi was watching.
She was indeed the student Yue Shi described: beautiful, good at studying, and well-liked by many people. How could Yue Shi, who was alone and weak, compare with a girl of this type?
After Yue Shi came to No. 4 Middle School, she studied hard, had a down-to-earth style, and had good interpersonal relationships. Gradually, her development momentum became better than when she was studying at Yude.
One semester later, Yue Shi re-entered the Rocket Class of No. 4 Middle School.
Yue Shi knew that Jiang Yuanyuan had recognized the wrong person, but when she saw that Jiang Yuanyuan was accusing Zhou Xiu, Yue Shi did not say anything. Zhou Xiu was indeed one of the people who caused her to drop out of school. If she hadn't insisted on pursuing the matter, how could Lu Lingshan have pushed her out as a scapegoat?
After Yue Shi took Lu Lingshan's money, she took on all the grievances. But what happened to her in Yude would eventually be known by her classmates at No. 4 Middle School.
Yue Shi would certainly not be able to survive at that time, so she had to vaguely express some of her grievances.
Jiang Yuanyuan saw Zhou Xiu and his group and couldn't help but say, "People who cheat on the exam are really not worthy of taking the competition."
The teacher in charge of the key class of No. 4 Middle School listened and looked at the students from Yude Middle School who came to participate in the competition.
He looked down on those private high schools that shamelessly squeezed into the ranks of key high schools every year by poaching outstanding students and spending money. There are students who cheated in the exam this time?
The teacher in charge of the team from No. 4 Middle School had a freezing impression of these students.
Zhou Xiu and his group were treated coldly. They stood outside the corridor while students from other schools were resting in the classroom.
Xu Qing asked the teacher if there was a classroom available for rest and preparation for the exam.
The teacher leading the team from No. 4 Middle School said calmly, "How can there be a classroom break if you come late?"
"One or two of them even put on makeup during exams and their minds are not on studying. The student morale is getting worse every year."
When he said this, he was looking at Zhou Xiu.
Questions slowly appeared on Zhou Xiu's face: "..."
She met the strange teacher's contemptuous look, pursed her lips and said nothing.
The students in the biology class looked at Zhou Xiu with complicated eyes. Zhou Xiu actually had the mind to put on makeup?
No, right?
Upon hearing this, Xu Qing glanced at Zhou Xiu and couldn't help laughing.
Zhou Xiu's eyebrows are thin but stylish, her double eyelids are slightly brown as if smudged, her lips are pink and smooth even without lipstick, and her skin is fair. She does look a bit like she is wearing makeup.
The girls in the biology class didn't dare confront the teacher in person, and privately said angrily, "He's old-fashioned."
This teacher can be said to be a very straight man. You can't even tell whether he is wearing makeup or not.
"I only regret not bringing a bottle of makeup remover to expose his superficial understanding."
Teacher He went to buy a few bottles of water for the students to drink, but unexpectedly he heard what the teacher from No. 4 Middle School said, and he felt a little upset.
Although this is a small matter, students who come late also have a place to prepare for the exam and rest, but there is no place for Yude. What does the teacher from No. 4 Middle School mean by his words?
He admitted that Yude was not as old and famous as No. 4 Middle School, but it was not the turn of any high school teacher to step on it, right?
Teacher He was afraid of affecting the students' test mentality, so he said, "It's okay, the test will start soon, good luck to the students!"
Zhou Xiu, who was inexplicably despised, said seriously to her team leader:
"good."
"I will try my best to get into the top three."
Zhou Xiu hates teachers who look at people with prejudice the most.
Originally he had worked hard to get good grades for the attractive rewards, but now for the sake of his dignity, Zhou Xiu had to sharpen his head and work hard.
Zhou Xiu's words were not taken seriously by the top students of No. 4 Middle School. It should be said that students from ordinary high schools posed no threat to them at all.
If I could snatch away the honor of the students from No. 4 Middle School with just a few words, wouldn't it be too unfair to myself who has studied hard for decades and overcome all difficulties to get here?
Jiang Yuanyuan from No. 4 Middle School asked Yue Shi: "She is so arrogant. You were classmates with her. How were her grades?"
Yue Shi, who was in the crowd, looked at Zhou Xiu's serious expression and said cautiously, "I only remember that she was good at math and biology, but when I left, she didn't seem to be in the top 100 in the grade."
oh.
Jiang Yuanyuan instantly forgot about Zhou Xiu.
Even in an ordinary school like Yude, he didn't even make it into the top 100, so he wasn't even qualified to be Jiang Yuanyuan's rival.
…
After the candidates entered the examination room, the exam bell rang soon.
The snow-white test papers were handed out one by one. The difficulty of the biology league was higher than the college entrance examination, but lower than the biology competition. After Zhou Xiu received the test paper, he immediately felt relieved.
The knowledge points tested in the preliminary round did not exceed the syllabus, so it was not difficult for Zhou Xiu. She completed the test paper carefully and meticulously and checked it once.
There was still half an hour left in the exam. Zhou Xiu calmly checked the paper three times, changed one answer before handing it in, and left the classroom five minutes early.
Many students outside had already finished their exams and could no longer hold back and ran out.
Teacher He asked with a smile: "Is it difficult? Seeing that you all handed in your papers early, it shouldn't be difficult this year, right?"
Many students shook their heads. Teacher He took the students back to school with a smile.
Sunday ended successfully.
Starting next Friday, Yude’s monthly exam will officially begin.
Lu family.
When Lu Lingshan returned home and put down her schoolbag, she found a group of relatives and directors gathered at home, apparently discussing business matters. She was about to go back to her room when a relative stopped her.
"Shanshan, aren't you dating the young master of the Xi family? Can you ask him to help our family?"
The smile on Lu Lingshan's face froze, "He, don't bother him with these things."
She concealed the fact that she was not dating Xi Shaoyuan.
The relative of the Lu family curled his lips, "You are so reluctant to help, you are not as good as the young master of the Tan family. You didn't make this up yourself, did you? You are obviously dating, how can you not invite him?"
"Shanshan, your father is really in trouble this time. His hair has turned white with worry... Oh, forget it."
Lu Lingshan's smile froze, "I'll go find him for help."
On Monday, Lu Lingshan went to find Tan Ming.
Tan Ming is studying very hard. Lu Lingshan made an appointment with him for the first time, and Tan Ming felt a little uncomfortable.
Hesitantly, he looked at the young sprout on Zhou Xiu's head portrait, and after a long discussion, he said, "I'll eat in the cafeteria at noon. You can talk to me then if you have anything to say."
At noon, Tan Ming had lunch with Du Feiyang as usual.
Du Feiyang really couldn't believe Tan Ming's sudden love for learning. He was completely impressed by him these past few days:
"You're memorizing formulas while eating. Are you learning from Xiuxiu?"
"Hey, is our class going to have a top student?"
Du Feiyang took the small note that Tan Ming had placed on the dining table, crumpled it up and threw it into the trash can. "Xiu Xiu works hard, but she has her own way. Stop watching and eat."
"If you keep reviewing all day, your brain will get tired and become stupid. She studies for 40 minutes and then takes a break. Do you know the Pomodoro Technique to concentrate? You don't even know how to learn from others' essence."
Alas! Du Feiyang was extremely disgusted.
Tan Ming felt a little embarrassed and started to eat seriously.
"Can you tell me more about how she studied?"
Tan Ming didn't know Zhou Xiu at all and was not as close to her as Du Feiyang. Du Feiyang patted Tan Ming's shoulder and said, "Look, Xiuxiu is eating over there. Why don't you go and ask her."
“Classmates in the class ask her for advice, and she is always happy to share her learning methods.”
Tan Ming was excited after hearing this, as if he had found another way. He quickly finished his meal and walked in front of Zhou Xiu.
Tan Ming asked Zhou Xiu softly, "I want to improve my academic performance quickly, what should I do?"
He asked cautiously, feeling the blood in his body boiling to the extreme.
When Zhou Xiu heard this, he looked up and saw Tan Ming in surprise, with a subtle feeling in his heart.
The sun...rises from the west? The student who was the least studious in the class actually asked her about her study methods. While eating, Zhou Xiu took out her cell phone and waved it in front of him.
The poor students in Class 24 asked this question too many times, so Zhou Xiu compiled this series of questions into a document.
Tan Ming took Zhou Xiu's phone, which still contained her warmth. Tan Ming looked at the documents in her phone and his heart sank.
Tan Ming sat next to Zhou Xiu, watching her dig into the rice in the bowl bit by bit. Her delicate features gave people an indescribable sense of comfort.
The grass becomes cuter the more you look at it.
Lu Lingshan sent so many messages to Tan Ming that his phone was buzzing, but Tan Ming didn't notice.
Because the sound of his heartbeat was so loud that it drowned out the rest of the world. Apart from the thumping sound and the dizzy sound in his ears, he could no longer hear any other sound.
…
Xi Shaoyuan on the second floor looked at Tan Ming sitting next to Zhou Xiu and kept asking questions.
His mouth never closed for a moment.
His heart was so sad that he dared not look at it anymore. If he took one more look at him, he would probably want to tear Tan Ming away from Zhou Xiu.
Zhang Qi was not surprised. "Zhou Xiu is quite popular."
"The people in their class suddenly became very interested in studying."
It's simply unbelievable. Could it really have such a strong effect if a diligent and studious top student mixed in with a group of poor students who had been lazy for so many years and had no ambition to make progress?
"Eel effect?" Zhang Qi shook his head.
The other end.
Lu Lingshan, who had made an appointment with Tan Ming, came to the cafeteria and looked for Tan Ming for a long time and finally found him.
She saw Tan Ming staring at Zhou Xiu seriously with a dull look on his face, like a little boy who had just fallen in love.
When Lu Lingshan saw this scene, her face darkened inch by inch, and the imbalance in her heart reached its peak. She called Tan Ming directly, and after a while Tan Ming answered the phone.
Lu Lingshan said: "Tan Ming, I want to ask you to do me a favor."
"Oh..." Tan Ming said absentmindedly, "Tell me what it is."
"My family's business is having some troubles—"
Zhou Xiu finished her lunch and left the cafeteria. Tan Ming turned around and watched her leave, not paying any attention to his phone at all.
Lu Lingshan clenched her fingers and said with a pale face: "Can you ask your uncle and aunt to inject 5 million yuan into the Lu family? Don't worry, this money is equivalent to buying shares in the Lu family."
Tan Ming seemed to have hung up the phone, "Beep, beep, beep—"
After a while, the absent-minded Tan Ming found that the call had ended long ago. He was in a daze. What did Lu Lingshan just say?
