"Yes, he will. He still has you friends by his side!" Ding's mother hugged her daughter and continued, "No matter how big the difficulties are, as long as we don't give up, we will be able to solve them one day, won't we?"
Don't give up...
Ding Kemeng blinked, buried her head in her mother's arms, and remained silent.
Time flies, and three months have passed in a flash.
For the past three months, there have been endless exams and tests. The students in Class 10, who were used to a leisurely life, were almost driven to the brink of collapse by the endless series of exams.
Even if they don't study, with one exam after another and endless practice questions, they still memorize quite a few questions, even if they just memorize the answers.
After finishing the last exam that day, Tang Zhizhou's eyes were a little blurry when he left the classroom.
"This is too tiring. I take exams during the day, do practice problems during evening self-study, and still have problems to do when I get home at night. I'm afraid I'll suddenly die one day!" Tang Zhizhou collapsed on the small lawn, his tone extremely miserable.
When Ding Kemeng and Lu Ziyin returned from buying food, they handed the food to Tang Zhizhou and smiled helplessly, "But your grades have improved quite a bit too!"
"Sister Meng, with such a low score, you won't even get into university!" Tang Zhizhou put the lunchbox aside, looked at the gloomy sky, and sighed.
"Which university do you want to apply to?" Ding Kemeng became interested when Tang Zhizhou mentioned university. She was curious about where Tang Zhizhou wanted to study.
"I don't know. Someone like me, I doubt any school in China would want me, unless my dad donates a library!" Tang Zhizhou rubbed his head, chuckled self-deprecatingly, and continued, "But my dad probably wouldn't want his son to be so humiliated in China. He'd probably send me abroad to get some prestige, so I can come back looking better."
"By the way, Chen'er, where are you going to university?" Tang Zhizhou asked, sitting up abruptly after speaking. He looked at Xie Sichen beside him.
Xie Sichen didn't expect Tang Zhizhou to ask him this suddenly. He put down his chopsticks, paused, and said, "C University, I want to study computer science."
"C University's computer science program is famous throughout the country; it's a very good school!" Ding Kemeng knew a lot about C University, after all, she had wanted to go there before.
However, C University's admission scores are quite high, so you'll need to put in some effort to get in.
After listening to Ding Kemeng's words, Xie Sichen looked up and asked, "Ding Kemeng, what do you think my chances of getting into C University would be?"
Success rate?
Ding Kemeng thought for a moment and replied, "An 80% success rate." Although Xie Sichen's academic performance was a bit weak, his science scores were excellent. If he could put in some effort in the humanities at the last minute, the success rate might be even higher!
"80%! Chen'er, does that mean you can get into C University?" Tang Zhizhou didn't think that much about it. As soon as he heard Ding Kemeng say that the success rate was so high, he was immediately happy for Xie Sichen.
"You're quite the optimist!" Lu Ziyin was picking out the best food from her lunchbox and putting it into Ding Kemeng's lunchbox. After she finished, she heard Tang Zhizhou's words, rolled her eyes, and chuckled as she scolded him.
"Hahaha..." Tang Zhizhou laughed too, no longer lying down, picked up the lunchbox and opened it, stuffing two mouthfuls of rice into his mouth, and asked while eating, "Brother Lu, which school do you want to go to? Like Sister Meng, to Peking University?"
It was common knowledge that Ding Kemeng wanted to go to Peking University. The school originally had a guaranteed admission spot, but Ding Kemeng didn't want it and decided to take the entrance exam herself. So, the guaranteed admission spot went to Song Xingjie from Class 1. Because of this, Lu Ziyin even threw a tantrum at Ding Kemeng for quite a while!
"Why are you meddling in all this? Go eat your food!" Lu Ziyin kicked Tang Zhizhou and ignored him.
Tang Zhizhou chuckled and dodged Lu Ziyin's foot, knowing that Lu Ziyin didn't want to talk about it, so he didn't ask any more questions.
Ding Kemeng was also a little puzzled as to why Lu Ziyin didn't want to answer the question. However, she also felt that Lu Ziyin probably wanted to be in the same school as her, but the admission score for B University was too high. Even if he wanted to take the exam now, he probably wouldn't be able to get in.
Ding Kemeng rubbed Lu Ziyin's hand and comforted her softly, "Ziyin, don't worry, there are many other universities. Even if you can't get into Peking University, as long as you get into one, I'll go with you!" Ding Kemeng felt that as long as they were together, it didn't matter if she wasn't at Peking University.
Lu Ziyin smiled at Ding Kemeng's answer and said, "It's okay, Mengbao, don't worry about me. Just focus on your exam!"
Tang Zhizhou looked up and saw the two chatting intimately, and immediately felt uncomfortable.
"Eekâyou two, that's enough! I'm still here!" He was eating something so sour he was about to burst!
Upon hearing Tang Zhizhou's words, Ding Kemeng instantly snapped back to reality, quickly separating herself from Lu Ziyin and ceasing her whispers with him.
Lu Ziyin didn't seem to notice anything. Instead, she glanced at Tang Zhizhou and said, "You're still here. I thought you had already left on your own!"
"Fine, you're the boss, whatever you say is right, I'm leaving, I'm leaving~~" Tang Zhizhou was finally convinced of Lu Gouzei's blatant disregard for friendship and his lust for women.
Xie Sichen silently took two steps back, not really wanting to join in the childish argument between the two.
Back in the classroom in the afternoon, after two classes, everyone was exhausted and slumped onto their desks, ready to catch up on some sleep.
Just then, Zhao Qian walked in.
"Everyone wake up, wake up! I have something to tell you!"
With Zhao Qian's loud voice, who could possibly sleep? Soon, everyone woke up, and upon seeing Zhao Qian, complaints arose from all sides.
"Teacher, do you have any humanity? There's only a ten-minute break between classes, let us rest for a bit!"
"Just ten minutes, teacher, you wouldn't be thinking of taking over too, would you!"
"Yeah, what's up, teacher?"
Lu Ziyin also woke up, looked at Ding Kemeng, and asked, "Mengbao, what's wrong?"
Ding Kemeng shook her head. Although she hadn't slept, she wasn't quite sure what had happened.
"What a beautiful day, and you're all just sleeping?" Zhao Qian sighed, feeling quite helpless towards these kids. "I have some good news to tell you, do you want to hear it?"
"What good news? Is it a holiday?"
"Yeah, it's not a holiday, I don't want to hear it!"
For the students in Class 10, nothing makes them happy except for holidays!
"Holiday, holiday! All you guys think about all day is holiday. Can't you have any ambition?" Zhao Qian shouted.
"If it's not a holiday, then what good news is it? Teacher, can you stop dawdling and wasting time?!" a student couldn't help but urge.
"Alright, alright, I'll stop keeping you in suspense." Zhao Qian waved his hand and said, "Do you know what day this Friday is?"
What day is it?
"New Year's Day!"
"..." Of course they know this Friday is New Year's Day, but so what if it's New Year's Day? Didn't the school issue a notice that senior students won't have a holiday this New Year's Day?!
"Don't be sad!" Zhao Qian said quickly when he saw that everyone was not very excited. "Although the school will not have a holiday for New Year's Day this year, the school has decided to hold a New Year's Eve party for the senior students, and there will be no evening self-study that night! How about that? Aren't you happy?"
