"Principal, please speak quickly!"
Jiang Qian glared at Mu Hanqing beside him.
The number one spot definitely belongs to Little Yuzu!
Mu Siyu complained in a low voice, "Why is the principal always like this!"
"They learned it from the TV station; they take a while to announce the rankings and then insert commercials," Wen Tian added quietly.
While everyone was complaining, the principal finally said, "Congratulations to our Luo Youyou for winning first place again!"
"Little Yuzu, come on stage!"
Standing up, Xiaoyouzi went on stage with a smile.
"I told you our little pomelo was number one!" Jiang Qian glanced smugly at Mu Hanqing beside him.
Mu Hanqing was furious.
She was always number one in her previous school, but she's no longer number one here.
With a fierce look in her eyes, Mu Hanqing wished she could drag Xiaoyouzi off the stage.
Once on the podium, the list of principals had been read aloud.
"Come here, little pomelo."
Little Yuzu walked over obediently and said, "Hello, Grandpa Principal!"
The principal smiled broadly and patted Xiaoyouzi's head: "Good boy, how many little red flowers did you get this semester?"
Upon seeing Xiaoyouzi, the principal's voice became much more relaxed.
After all, from the first moment he saw the child upon enrollment, he felt that the child was very cute, lively, and sensible.
Little Yuzu thought for a moment.
She remembered that before she started school, the principal had told her that if she accumulated a lot of little red flowers, she would receive a gift: "Ah, I haven't counted them yet!"
The teacher would give out little red flowers for every test, and also for quizzes in class or for completing a dictation exercise on the board.
She has so many little red flowers on her fingers that she can't even count them all.
The principal said with a smile, "Here is your certificate and gift. Your homeroom teacher will give you the rest. Remember to redeem your small gift at the school's prize counter."
"The little red flower is valid for each semester, and you'll have to get it again next semester."
"Really?"
Little Yuzu's eyes widened: "It will expire!"
She hadn't even thought about this: "But I didn't bring my little red flower."
"It's alright, the teachers at the prize counter have a record of it, you can just go and redeem it." The principal patted Xiaoyouzi's head again.
Wen Shuqin, who was standing next to him, said, "I'll go with you later."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Shuqin."
The principal handed the certificate to Wen Shuqin and nodded, "Keep it up! Although your grades are the same as Xiaoyouzi's, both are perfect, Xiaoyouzi gets higher scores in class."
"You should raise your hand to answer questions more often in the future."
Wen Shuqin nodded coolly and accepted the certificate: "Thank you, Principal."
"You brat."
When it was Mu Hanqing's turn to come in third, she looked resentful and unhappy.
After giving her the certificate, the principal said earnestly, "Just try harder next time. There's a long road ahead, and you have to look forward."
Mu Hanqing merely tugged at the corners of her mouth, revealing an awkward smile. "Thank you, Principal."
The principal didn't say much, nor did he become impatient. He continued to happily present the awards and thank the other students.
After the first graders received their awards, the other grades followed suit.
Back in her seat, Mu Siyu pulled Xiaoyouzi over: "Xiaoyouzi, you have to be careful. I feel like my cousin doesn't look too good."
"It's alright."
Xiao Youzi calmly glanced at Mu Hanqing not far away.
Upon seeing Mu Hanqing's unfriendly gaze, Xiaoyouzi smiled.
She had only given a friendly smile, but Mu Hanqing's expression changed instantly.
"What do you mean? Are you mocking me?" Mu Hanqing was furious.
The girl next to me said, "She's deliberately mocking you. Look how smug she is."
"Yeah, he thinks he's so great just because he's number one in the grade. What's he so proud of!" another boy said disdainfully.
He just couldn't stand cute girls like Xiaoyouzi.
My brother said that kind of girl is just pretending. (qqxsnew)
The boy said this, and the girl chimed in, "That's right, wasn't our Hanqing first in the grade before? She just did a few extra questions and got ten extra points!"
"Yeah, all the other grades are the same. Hanqing will definitely crush her next semester!"
A few people whispered among themselves around Mu Hanqing, who found Xiaoyouzi increasingly displeasing.
Wen Shuqin, standing next to Xiaoyouzi, felt the malicious gaze directed at him.
He glanced sideways, his cold eyes sweeping over Mu Hanqing.
Mu Hanqing hurriedly looked away and asked in a low voice, "Who is the boy next to the top student in the grade?"
"His name is Wen Shuqin. I heard his family has quite a background."
"I've met his mother; she seems to be a big star!"
"Waaaaah, Wen Shuqin is so handsome! So cool! Just like the male lead in the anime I watch!"
Several girlfriends surrounded Mu Hanqing and started chattering excitedly.
The awards ceremony was completed quickly.
Everyone took their chairs back.
Xiao Youzi stuffed the certificate into the cabinet and hurriedly followed Wen Shuqin to the prize area.
"Teacher, I've come to redeem my prize!"
Little Yuzi was short; his head barely peeked out from behind the prize counter.
The teacher at the prize counter peeked out and saw Little Yuzu.
"Which class are you in, little one?"
Little Yuzi obediently replied, "Luo Youyou from Class 1, Grade 1!"
"Let me check."
The teacher typed in Xiaoyouzi's name and then said, "Ah, Luo Youyou has earned a total of thirty-five little red flowers. What would you like to exchange them for?"
"What can I exchange it for?"
The teacher turned on the big screen: "These."
"Ah, twenty little red flowers can be exchanged for a Disney princess backpack! It's so pretty! It's Elsa!"
