The day after the college entrance examination, the sunlight pierced through the layers of leaves and fell on the campus paths like sharp arrows.
A gentle breeze blew, but it was like a weak and powerless hand, unable to dispel the restlessness and unease in everyone's hearts.
The school gathers students together to evaluate their college entrance examination scores based on the answer key.
The atmosphere in the classroom was oppressive. Although there was no tension like before the college entrance examination, everyone was still uneasy and their expressions were solemn.
Everyone was silently calculating their scores and contemplating their future. Time seemed to slow down, and a strange anxiety permeated the air.
The homeroom teacher, Mr. Zhang, arrived at the classroom early, holding the answer key. He went up to the podium, distributed a copy of the answer key to each student, and then eagerly began his "questioning" assessment.
His gaze first locked onto the students he usually favored, and with a hint of expectation, he walked up to them and asked, "How many points do you estimate?"
The fans in the classroom were humming.
Teacher Zhang paced back and forth, occasionally walking over to a student and asking them a question or two in a low voice. The classroom was filled with all sorts of responses.
There was disappointment, and there was excitement.
Liu Feng quickly glanced at the answers and already had a good idea of what to expect. He sat silently by the window, gazing quietly outside.
The sunlight shone on his face, but it could not illuminate the seemingly bottomless thoughts in his heart.
He already knew the outcome of the exam. "I'll leave after Wang Juan gets her score."
He thought to himself silently.
Teacher Zhang walked up to Liu Feng and saw him sitting alone by the window, looking dazed. He felt a pang of anxiety, thinking that Liu Feng had failed the exam.
So he gently put his hand on Liu Feng's shoulder, as if to comfort him: "Don't regret it or be sad, as long as you've tried your best!"
Liu Feng's performance in class was not outstanding, but Teacher Zhang knew that if he could perform normally, he would have no problem getting into a second-tier university.
Seeing that he remained silent, Teacher Zhang did not ask him for a specific estimated score.
But as he turned to leave, he couldn't help but ask, "Is there any hope for a second-tier university?"
Liu Feng knew that Teacher Zhang must have misunderstood him, so he smiled slightly, didn't explain further, and simply replied, "Yes."
Upon hearing Liu Feng's answer, Teacher Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Good, good, it's good that there's hope."
At the same time, Liu Feng's relationship with Li Yu and Zhu Shuang seems to have become somewhat distant.
That night quietly widened the distance between the three of them.
They were separated by a table, and every now and then they would glance unintentionally at Liu Feng.
When they heard Teacher Zhang praise Liu Feng as "hopeful," they felt a strange mix of joy and disappointment.
These complex emotions intertwined in their hearts, like an invisible giant net, making them slightly breathless.
On the other side.
After asking all the students for their estimated scores, Teacher Zhang had mixed feelings.
Overall, he was not satisfied with his college entrance examination results.
His goal has always been to cultivate students who can get into Tsinghua and Peking Universities. Clearly, the current estimated scores are somewhat disappointing.
As a homeroom teacher who has seen many graduating classes through, he still has a certain degree of composure.
After three years of hard study, the outcome would be decided at once. No matter how many times he went through it, he still felt anxious about the fate of the students in front of him.
Liu Feng was the first to finish filling out his college application form, and he quickly handed it in.
Teacher Zhang casually pressed the application form under the blackboard eraser without looking at it closely.
Afterwards, everyone handed in their application forms one after another, and the atmosphere in the classroom eased a little, but the students' anxiety did not disappear.
The next two weeks will be a long wait for the results, and after the results are released, I will have to go back to school to get my personal file, etc.
Liu Feng arrived at the door of Wang Juan's classroom.
He saw Wang Juan surrounded by a group of classmates, her face beaming with smiles and her eyes sparkling.
Wang Juan's estimated score stunned everyone.
She became the "dark horse" of the class, and the homeroom teacher had to repeatedly confirm her assessment scores before believing that this was not a joke.
Ultimately, Wang Juan decided to apply to Peking University, and this became the focus of attention amidst the envy of her classmates.
Seeing Liu Feng waving to her from outside the door, Wang Juan ran out happily, her smile as bright as a blooming flower, capable of illuminating the whole world.
"Liu Feng, I applied to Peking University! What about you?"
Liu Feng smiled slightly and replied, "The school I applied to is quite close to your school."
Wang Juan's classmates all looked at the two of them and began to whisper among themselves.
Her homeroom teacher wore a rather smug expression.
Looking back, he advised Wang Juan's father not to interfere too much in Wang Juan's relationship with Liu Feng, so as not to affect her college entrance examination results.
In retrospect, his decision was right.
However.
When the homeroom teacher looked at Liu Feng, she couldn't help but sigh softly. The college entrance examination is a dividing line in one's destiny. No matter how beautiful the past romance was, life after university will gradually blur it all, turning it into a part of memory.
Some classmates whispered among themselves, wondering if Wang Juan, having been admitted to Peking University, would abandon Liu Feng and continue to pursue even higher goals.
Such discussions are quietly circulating in the air, seemingly becoming an unspoken fact.
After exchanging a few words with Liu Feng, Wang Juan happily ran back to the classroom to share her joy with her classmates.
Liu Feng wanted to go with her, but ultimately didn't say it.
He watched her happily blend into the crowd, and he was happy for her, but he still silently turned around and left alone.
