Chapter 16: Spinning in circles



Chapter 16: Embarrassing yourself by walking in circles

Although she finished answering the test paper ahead of time, Shi Li did not hand it in early.

On the one hand, she was a person who took the test seriously, and she could check the test paper again in the remaining time.

On the other hand, Shen Qinglin was a cautious person, and he would never hand in the test paper ahead of time.

Until the hand-in bell rang, the torture of the day ended.

After leaving the examination room and going to a place with a signal, Shi Li called Shen Qinglin again, "Let's have a meal together to celebrate after the test?"

Shi Li thought that Shen Qinglin had other reasons for rejecting her at noon, and she didn't think that he was unwilling to have a meal with her.

Shen Qinglin was a very boring person, and to be friends with such a person, she had to take the initiative.

There was silence for two seconds on the other end of the phone before saying, "Congratulations on finishing the test."

Shi Li thought to herself, what kind of words are these, we both finished the test, why are you congratulating me.

"I didn't go to the competition today."

Upon hearing this, Shi Li immediately asked, "Did something happen at home? Is there anything I can help with?"

Shen Qinglin said calmly, "No, my application for the competition was not approved by the director. He said that I don't meet the qualifications for the competition."

How could she not meet the qualifications? Shen Qinglin and she were both ranked in the top two in the weighted scores of the big and small tests.

And that competition application was just a formality. Only those who were eligible to participate in the competition could apply.

On the night of early November, Shi Li stood outside with her mobile phone in her hand, but she could not feel the slightest bit of coolness. She was filled with anger.

They are not children anymore. The pig-headed director spoke in a high-sounding manner, but in fact he was asking Shen Qinglin to make way for others.

Shi Li instantly thought of Liang Rongrong whom he saw outside the corridor of the examination room, and he cursed unconsciously.

Shen Qinglin looked like he had accepted it, "Don't get upset over such a small matter." Shi

Li was really angry at him for not fighting for it. Only if Shen Qinglin won a certain number of influential awards in the competition would he have the opportunity to get the early registration quota.

But Shen Qinglin was neither angry nor qualified to fight.

He had no backing to support him, and his parents were just ordinary people.

He was studying at Qianpu, and he didn't have to pay tuition, but he also received subsidies and scholarships from the school.

"Where are you now?"

"I'm reading in the library."

The library has a good environment, with heating in winter and air conditioning in summer, and it is especially quiet, suitable for studying.

The most important thing is that it is free.

He lived with his grandfather in an old shantytown, which was cold in winter and hot in summer. Next door was a chess and card room, where people played mahjong during the day until two or three in the night.

This environment was not suitable for studying, but he studied in this environment until he entered junior high school. It was not

until he entered junior high school that he learned from his classmates that he could study in the library for free.

Riding a bicycle from home to the library not only exercised his body, but also saved travel expenses.

"Then I won't disturb you from studying."

I wanted to ask him out for dinner in the evening, but I thought that their relationship was not so good now.

It was a bit strange for Baba to come up and ask to have dinner together, so I decided to forget it.

Besides, it was not a good time to eat. Shen Qinglin was feeling frustrated that he could not participate in the competition. As someone who had just participated in the competition, she ran up to him. This was somewhat touching.

"With your ability, you can definitely participate in the next competition. We can go together in the future." After

hanging up the phone, Shi Li didn't want to hang around here.

She hailed a taxi and went straight home.

Nanny Zhang knew that Shi Li was going to take an exam today. Shi Li said in the morning that she didn't have to cook for her tonight.

"Ali, didn't you eat with your classmates?"

"My classmates have something urgent to do."

"Then what do you want to eat tonight?"

"You decide and make it."

Aunt Zhang saw that Shi Li's expression was not very good, and thought that she didn't do well in the exam this time.

Shi Li went into the bedroom upstairs, changed into home clothes, and the more she thought about it, the more depressed she felt.

So she called the physics teacher.

Teacher Wu was having dinner at home. After receiving the call from the student, he put down his chopsticks and left the table.

"What's wrong, Shi Li, how difficult was the test paper today?"

Teacher Wu thought Shi Li was discussing today's test paper.

"It's okay, I don't think it's difficult."

"Teacher, do you know who is participating in the competition with me?"

"Shen Qinglin, is there something wrong?"

Teacher Wu thought, Shi Li knew who was participating in the competition with her, how could she ask this question.

"It's not him, I just found out that Director Zhu said he was not qualified and rejected his application. Shen Qinglin did not take the exam today."

Teacher Wu thought of the key before Shi Li.

Teacher Wu teaches physics to both Class 3 and Class 1. He is very proud of the fact that he can train two competitive students.

Now he heard that his favorite student was replaced.

Teacher Wu is still angry.

"When I was in the examination room today, I vaguely saw the new transfer student from Class 3."

Teacher Wu was furious, and it was obvious who would get the quota.

Even though Liang Rongrong was also a student he taught, one was a genius disciple he had taught for a few months, and the other was a transfer student who had just been in school for a week.

Just on the emotional level, his attitude towards the two was different.

"Her physics level is not even as good as Fu Huixing in your class. Who gave her the courage to participate in the physics competition?" What is a physics competition? Is it the origami airplane competition in their kindergarten?

Fu Huixing is the school bully in Shili's class. He sleeps most of the time in class, but his grades can always be kept in the middle of the class.

Compared with Liang Rongrong, Fu Huixing, who sleeps in class, is also bad enough for Teacher Wu.

From the perspective of school honor, choosing Liang Rongrong to participate in the competition will affect the school's grades and rankings. There is also a team award among the awards.

"Shen Qinglin is such a kid. He didn't even bother to tell me, his teacher, about this incident."

On second thought, he felt that this kid was really considerate. He was afraid that the teacher would argue with Old Zhu about this matter, so he simply didn't complain to the teacher.

"Teacher, have we got the results of this monthly exam?"

Teacher Wu still didn't know what Shi Li was thinking.

He said, "Wait until the results of Class 3 come out, and I'll send you a copy."

Shi Li was not embarrassed at all when her thoughts were seen through. She chuckled twice, "Thank you, teacher."

Shi Li said before hanging up the phone.

"I'm not sure that Liang Rongrong is the one who replaced Shen Qinglin. You'd better confirm it."

Teacher Wu has his own connections. He didn't need to ask the head of the grade to find out who the other person was who took the exam on behalf of Qianpu Middle School.

Shi Li guessed correctly.

At the same time, Teacher Wu sent the news he found out to Shi Li.

Along with this message, the results of Class 3's monthly exam were also sent.

As a physics teacher, Teacher Wu only sent the results of physics.

The highest score was from high to low.

Shi Li found Liang Rongrong's name in the second half of the ranking.

Since the last phone call with Teacher Wu, Shi Li didn't understand one thing.

Liang Rongrong's physics score can only reach the level of barely passing. Who gave her the courage to take the quota of others to participate in the physics competition?

Moreover, Liang Rongrong in the original book is a simple, kind and peaceful little white flower. How could she do such a thing as taking the quota of others?

The most important thing is that her grades are very average.

If her grades are very good, she can say that she has a reason and profit to take the quota of others.

With her physics grades, going to participate in the competition outside the school is like pulling a millstone with bare bottoms - it is embarrassing.
