Chapter 13: Not Admitted, High School Entrance Exam Approaching
The two found a place to sit down and took out the notes they brought to review. Feng Ying was no longer worried when she saw Zhang Wanwan was also reading. Not long after, Ding Juncai also arrived. With the addition of a boy, it was even more inconvenient for them to discuss. After joking for a while, Feng Ying forgot about Zhang Wanwan's stomach discomfort.
After three days of exams, they resumed their normal classes.
The marking of the entrance examination papers for private schools does not take as long as the city mock examination. The results will be available on the third day after the examination, and all schools will receive the news on the fifth day.
When the admission results were announced, Feng Ying and Ding Juncai were stunned.
The two of them looked at Zhang Wanwan in silence.
Zhang Wanwan's scalp was numb from being stared at, and she explained helplessly: "Don't doubt it, I really didn't do well in the exam this time. I was not feeling well that day, so I didn't write the composition well, and I didn't check the calculations."
"That's not the case!" Ding Juncai blurted out.
Feng Ying said angrily, "Ding Juncai, why are you so excited? If anyone should be excited, it should be me!"
Feng Ying's eyes were red after she finished speaking, "You are only a few points short, which is more than 20 points higher than the internal score line they set. You..."
Zhang Wanwan shook her head seriously at Feng Ying and said, "You know my family's situation. We can't afford to owe that favor. Maybe I'm not destined to be in Yucai Middle School. Since I didn't pass the entrance exam, I have to work hard for the high school entrance exam. But congratulations in advance, really. From now on, you are free and don't have to come to school."
When Feng Ying heard this, she wanted to cry again. Even though she was admitted to Yucai Middle School, she was not very happy.
Zhang Wanwan was quite relieved to see her reaction. Now they have a very good relationship. Even if they don't meet again in the future and their relationship becomes distant, she can still remember the good times now. Unlike in her previous life, when their relationship became distant, they felt awkward every time they met because they were in the same school.
Zhang Wanwan was comforting Feng Ying when Su Yuxing came in with a roll of papers and passed one to each person. When he came to Zhang Wanwan, he asked seriously, "Zhang Wanwan, I don't think you should have been rejected by Yucai Middle School based on your grades. Did something unexpected happen?"
Zhang Wanwan looked at Su Yuxing in surprise, and said hesitantly in a low voice: "I was not feeling well that day, and my performance was not normal."
Su Yuxing heard this, and a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, "I passed the exam."
Ding Juncai immediately responded, "Hey! Class monitor, we are alumni again! Please take care of me!"
Feng Ying was so angry that she jumped up and down, "Bah! How many people do you want to cheat on you in the exam?"
Zhang Wanwan smiled. Seeing that Su Yuxing was still serious, she sighed helplessly and said, "No matter what, congratulations. Yucai Middle School is not bad."
"It's a pity that I can't compete with you anymore." Su Yuxing said and turned away.
Zhang Wanwan was stunned for a moment, then she smiled.
During the last self-study class, the homeroom teacher showed up. He glanced at the students with a gratified look on his face and said in a deep voice, "Today, the teacher also received the admission list of Yucai Middle School. Congratulations to the ten students in our class. Starting tomorrow, you don't have to come to school anymore and can enjoy the summer vacation in advance. Of course, you are welcome to come back for classes."
Ding Juncai shook his head vigorously after hearing this. Only a fool would come back to suffer again!
The head teacher laughed when he saw his reaction. Under normal circumstances, he would have given him a lecture, but today he smiled more kindly than a mother, scaring Ding Juncai so much that he didn't even dare to swallow his saliva. It seemed that having been under this head teacher for three years had made his fear a conditioned reflex.
Zhang Wanwan only thought about it for a moment and then she understood. Among the ten students in the class who were close to Yucai Middle School, only three had good grades, and the remaining seven were not very good. If they were allowed to take part in the high school entrance examination, they would only drag down the class. It would be better for them to enter Yucai Middle School!
After talking for fifteen minutes, the head teacher encouraged the students again before letting everyone study on their own. Zhang Wanwan was about to do the test paper when she found that her sight was covered by a shadow. She looked up and saw, "Teacher!"
The head teacher patted her on the shoulder, squatted beside her and asked in a low voice: "What happened to your results at Yucai Middle School this time? The teacher didn't see your test paper, but that score is definitely not up to your level."
Zhang Wanwan lowered her eyes and also lowered her voice and said, "I was not feeling well this time, so I didn't do well in the exam. I won't do it again next time."
The head teacher stared at Zhang Wanwan seriously for a long time before he stood up and said before leaving, "Remember, one lesson is enough for this kind of thing."
Zhang Wanwan nodded quickly.
For the next two weeks, Zhang Wanwan lived an extremely quiet life at school. Because Feng Ying and the others didn't come, Zhang Wanwan had a rare chance to read and do exercises comfortably. Her life was like a fairy's. Whenever someone came up to her to ask questions, she would patiently explain to them. She instantly won the love of the whole class. It was only then that they realized that Zhang Wanwan, who they had always thought of as a nerd and invisible person, was actually very easy to get along with and very easy-going. She could always connect with the conversation when they talked about music, playing ball, etc. Her hobbies were beyond their imagination.
At this moment, they were regretting that they had not taken the initiative to contact Zhang Wanwan before. The high school entrance examination was approaching, and there would not be many opportunities to "rekindle the old relationship" in the future.
After explaining the topic to the last student, Zhang Wanwan felt relaxed, packed her schoolbag leisurely, and left the school humming a little tune. They will have a week off from tomorrow. They will study at home this week, and the high school entrance examination will be a week later. She was excited just thinking about it. The first turning point in her life has come! This time, she must go all out to make her family proud of her.
It was not yet six o'clock when she got home. The days were long in summer, and the sun at six o'clock was still a bit hot. Zhang Wanwan walked to the door of her house sweating profusely and was about to open the door when the iron gate opposite suddenly opened. She shivered with fear and almost threw away the key. Then she heard Wang Chunhua's loud voice yelling, "If you dare to leave this house, don't come back! I'll let you starve to death outside!"
The boy, who was about eighteen or nineteen years old, frowned when he heard the voice, slammed the door in anger, glanced at Zhang Wanwan and ran away.
Wang Chunhua opened the door and saw no one, only Zhang Wanwan. She asked in a bad tone, "Where is Xu Zhiqiang?"
Zhang Wanwan's face darkened. She was impatient to answer and pointed directly in the direction of the stairs.
Wang Chunhua immediately got angry and started to scold Zhang Wanwan by pointing at her forehead, "Didn't your mother teach you to answer questions from your elders? You have no manners at all and are so uneducated!"
Zhang Wanwan's face became even uglier. She ignored Wang Chunhua and went in after the door opened. Before closing the door, she said coldly, "Auntie Wang, has anyone ever told you to be polite before asking someone? We are not related at all, and you are meddling too much!"
After saying that, the door slammed.
