Chapter 1010 Target plus one
Even though Wu Juyue was usually carefree, she was still a little sensitive to such things. She put the note away and replied to Ji Mingyue, "Lili is always amazing."
Wu Juyue meant this sincerely. Ji Lili has always been excellent, and many people have always wanted to be friends with her. She is a very good person, so she began to reflect on whether she was too stingy.
At this time, the note was passed back to her, and on it was Ji Mingyue’s answer: Yes, I almost forgot that you are Lili’s best friend, I’m so envious!
Girls of this age are particularly obsessed with their best friends. Wu Juyue stared at the note in a daze. Is she really Ji Lili's best friend? It seems that this is just her unilateral feeling that she is her best friend, while Lili doesn't seem to think so.
When the note didn't arrive back, Ji Mingyue knew she'd guessed right. A carefree, average-achieving girl like Wu Juyue was actually the most sensitive. She glanced at Ji Lili again. She and her deskmate had stopped chatting and were each working on their own homework. She double-checked the mark on Ke Sisi's head, confirming she wasn't on her target list, and quickly forgot about her.
Ji Mingyue's gaze was too blatant. Ji Lili finished her homework slowly, feeling a little curious. Could the heroine's aura really be so strong that she could always top the class without studying? Even if she had studied once, she couldn't do that. After all, knowledge needs to be constantly updated. Behind her every top spot was her own considerable effort. The plot seemed to never mention Ji Mingyue's study. Back then, everyone was just paper people, and her getting first place in the exam was just a matter of the author's words. But now that the paper world has become the real world, can she still top the list so easily? She never believed that there were shortcuts to learning, so Ji Lili was looking forward to the first monthly exam.
When the bell rang, everyone stood up to go outside and use the restroom. Wu Juyue stood at her seat and called her, "Lili, do you want to go to the restroom?"
"Go." Ji Lili nodded and asked Ke Sisi beside her: "Do you want to go to the bathroom?"
"Okay, let's go together." Ke Sisi has always been an introvert. This is the first time someone has invited her to go together. The most important thing is that the person who invited her is Ji Lili. How can she refuse?
Ji Lili saw her face turn red and was a little puzzled by her excitement. Going to the bathroom together was too normal in school days, so she didn't notice the emotion that flashed in Wu Juyue's eyes when she and Ke Sisi appeared together.
Wu Juyue and Ji Mingyue were walking in front, while Ji Lili and Ke Sisi were following behind them. The two in front were talking the whole time, while the two behind remained quiet. Although Wu Juyue was talking to Ji Mingyue, she was always paying attention to the movements behind them. After making sure that the two were not talking, her depression disappeared. It must be Lili who asked her deskmate by the way.
Seeing the strategy value that had been rising steadily freeze again, Ji Mingyue couldn't help but frown. Why did it stop again? Wasn't it rising well just now? Thinking of this, she turned to look at Ji Lili: "Lili, is this your new friend? Can you introduce her to us?"
"We're all classmates, what's there to introduce?" Ji Lili felt that she was really uncomfortable if she didn't make trouble. We were all classmates, wouldn't it be better to put everyone in the same position? If she did what she said, wouldn't it automatically distinguish between close and distant relatives?
"Yes, I remember you are Ke Sisi, right?" Wu Juyue looked at Ke Sisi with a smile on her face.
Ke Sisi nodded shyly and whispered, "I know you. You and Ji Lili are good friends. You sat together before."
"Yes, you are right." Ke Sisi's words greatly pleased Wu Juyue, and she smiled even more happily.
Seeing the strategy value drop by another two points, Ji Mingyue felt a little unhappy. She suppressed the urge to curse. It would be fine if this thing would stay stable and not rise, but now it is actually falling? This is simply bad news for Ji Mingyue.
Perhaps they spent more time talking on the way today, and the bell rang as soon as they arrived at the classroom. Wu Juyue and Ji Mingyue hurriedly took the teaching materials for this class from the desk frame.
Ji Lili and Ke Sisi had prepared these things long before the preparatory bell rang, so although they came back a little late, they were not affected at all.
Compared to junior high school, the textbooks and courses in high school are more in-depth. If you want to stay at the top of the list every time, you naturally need to work hard. So even though Ji Lili has already prepared and studied in advance, she still listens attentively in class.
This class was English. Ji Lili had been the English class representative for all three years of junior high school, and in high school, teacher Tang Yan had handpicked her as the class representative. After Ji Mingyue found her English book, she looked up and saw the "Needs a Strategy" sign above her English teacher's head. Her eyes lit up. Having passed the CET-4, high school English was no problem for her.
In this class, Ji Mingyue was more attentive than ever. Whenever there was a question period, she was always the first to raise her hand. Her pronunciation and spoken English surprised Tang Yan. She remembered that Ji Mingyue had transferred from a rural school. She had previously worried about her new student's spoken English and pronunciation, but now it seemed she was the one who was worried. She praised her generously and asked about her learning methods.
Ji Mingyue stared at the rising strategy value above her head with a smug look on her face. After hearing her question, she immediately started to think of a word, then pretended to be embarrassed and applied, "The village chief has an old radio. I often go to his house to listen to them play English tapes, and then go home and read them in front of the mirror."
"Ji Mingyue is amazing! She's worthy of our emulation." Who wouldn't like a diligent and studious student? Tang Yan's strategy value rose another two points, reaching twenty.
Ji Mingyue had originally thought that after answering so many questions, Tang Yan's favorability rating would soar to 30 by the end of the class. However, by the end of the class, her rating remained at 20. Her gaze fell on Wu Juyue's head, which had already reached 30. Recalling the fluctuations in the morning, she realized that after reaching 20, the rating seemed to slow down.
Ji Mingyue became famous overnight in this English class. Everyone looked at her with a little more admiration. Wu Juyue even took her arm and said with a smile, "Everyone in your family is really good. Mingyue, I'll have to trouble you to give me more private lessons on my English from now on!"
"No problem." Ji Mingyue smiled and made an OK gesture to her. After doing all this, her gaze stayed on Wu Juyue's head. Her strategy value increased by another point, and she couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips.
The afternoon flew by, and soon it was the last class. Ji Lili rubbed her stomach. Studying was indeed the most physically demanding thing, and she was a little hungry. At this time, Ke Sisi next to her handed her a small piece of bread. Seeing her look at her, she explained a little embarrassedly, "I get hungry quickly when I go to school, so I always bring some food with me. This is a new product from my dad's factory. Would you like to try it later?"
"Then I won't be polite. Thank you." Ji Lili did not refuse her deskmate's kindness. Her father actually worked in a food factory. She remembered that her childhood wish was to open a supermarket of her own or work in a food factory so that she would have endless snacks. She didn't expect there was another way. Thinking of this, she looked at Ke Sisi with a hint of envy.
Ke Sisi felt a little embarrassed when she was looked at by her, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" After asking, she felt a little nervous. Her former deskmate loved to tease her, saying that she loved to eat so much even though she was so fat. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Would Ji Lili feel the same way?
"Your father works in a food factory. Have you always been able to eat the latest snacks first since you were a child?" Ji Lili was a little curious.
Ke Sisi breathed a sigh of relief, then nodded: "Yes, every time the factory's new products are still in the trial stage, I can taste them. I think delicious snacks always sell well!"
Ke Sisi's tone was a little proud when she said the last sentence. Ji Lili gave her a thumbs up and praised her, "Great!"
Ke Sisi looked at Ji Lili somewhat flattered. When she said this before, everyone would say that she was a foodie. She was the first person to praise herself.
There was an hour for lunch from school in the afternoon to evening self-study. When they returned, Jiang Yulan had already prepared dinner. While eating, Ji Lili keenly noticed that the atmosphere between the two was not right, so something must have happened at noon.
"Eat quickly, or you'll complain that it's too late." Jiang Yulan poured her a bowl of soup and urged her.
"Uh." Ji Lili took the bowl of soup obediently. Forget it, I'll ask hello when I come back in the evening.
Ji Mingyue was delighted to discover that even without her doing anything, Ji Yushu's strategy value had already reached 40. She wondered if this was due to blood ties. It seemed like it was time to get Ye Qiuju to work harder.
Ji Yushu raised his eyes and saw the two people opposite him. His previous joy was long gone. The idea of wanting a son, which was brought out by Chen Guilan, reached its peak at this moment. Why can others have sons, but he can't?
Everyone ate with different thoughts, but Jiang Yulan was the only one who was serious. She was known for her simplicity, and she felt the lunch conversation had reached a consensus. So, she didn't want to tell Ji Lili about this, not wanting her to know that Ji Yushu still disliked her for being his daughter.
"Let's go to school early. Wu Juyue said we should go early so she can teach me how to ride a bike." As soon as Ji Mingyue put down his bowl and chopsticks, he kept urging Ji Lili.
Ji Lili didn't refuse. She went to finish her afternoon classwork early so that she could have some time to read during evening self-study.
Seeing that she agreed, Ji Mingyue was a little surprised. He thought she would argue with him. This was good, as it saved him a lot of verbal arguments.
As soon as the two of them went downstairs, they heard a cheerful male voice from behind: "Ji Lili!"
The one who called Ji Lili was Zheng Gaoyang, the second generation of the cotton mill's family. His father was the director and was quite familiar with her grandfather. She turned around and greeted him: "Zheng Gaoyang, are you going to school too?"
"Yeah, let's go together." Zheng Gaoyang's tone was filled with joy. Ji Mingyue next to him curled the corners of her lips. Today was really her lucky day. Here came another target to pursue!
