“Everyone in my family is outstanding,” Su Muqing said after a pause.
"Big sister, I know, I will try my best."
"Don't feel pressured. I'm just stating a fact. So after this monthly exam, we'll review your weaknesses and find you a tutoring class."
"Big sister, if I have to attend tutoring classes, I'd like to study advanced math, is that okay?"
"Studying math olympiad? You like math olympiad?"
"Yeah, I think math olympiad is quite interesting, and the math question on this month's exam was a bit difficult."
"Okay, I'll tell your second sister. Let's eat."
After dinner, Su Muqing went to a conference call, while Wang Xinghe went back to his room to study.
The two-day monthly exam was finally over, and Rongxu was overjoyed, shouting and yelling in class.
"Rongxu, what are you doing!" Shen Duzhi shouted as he walked in.
Seeing that it was the homeroom teacher, Rong Xu quickly sat down.
Shen Duzhi glared at Rong Xu: "Do you think you did very well on the exam?"
"No, no, I didn't do well on the test."
"Let's see how many points you get when the results come out! All you do is yell and shout all day long. Is the college entrance exam over?"
"No."
"You're getting this excited over a small monthly exam. In two weeks, there'll be the third mock exam, a district-wide joint exam. Let's see how well you score then!"
"Oh no, teacher, we just finished the exams, why are we having another one?"
"You're in your final year of high school now, which means you have relatively few exams. I've heard that in some places, there are two or even three exams a week! Xinghe, how many exams a week did your school have?"
"Teacher Shen, we had two exams a week back then."
"Did you hear that? Two tests a week! Only by treating each day like the college entrance exam can you treat the college entrance exam like a day. The more tests you take, the more numb you become, and naturally you won't be nervous about the college entrance exam."
"Isn't that the truth, Galaxy?"
"My former teacher said the same thing."
"Yes, you need to do more practice questions to maintain your feel for the questions. So, I've decided to add an extra test paper today, a Chinese language practice."
"Ugh! Teacher, I hate you! We just finished our exams!"
When school was over, Shen Duzhi called Wang Xinghe to his office.
"So, how did you find the exam? Was it difficult?"
"It's alright, not too difficult."
"Okay, keep it up! We're about to have our 100-day countdown rally. It's a little late this year because of various reasons. If you get first place in this monthly exam, you can even go on stage to receive a scholarship."
"Are there scholarships available? How much are they?"
"I don't know the exact amount. There might be well-known entrepreneurs coming to the school to reward outstanding students, so the exact number will be even more uncertain. This is also a benefit of our school."
"Yes, Ms. Shen, I understand."
"Okay, I know you're not short of money, but this is also an honor, right?"
Wang Xinghe nodded. He would work harder to earn more scholarships, which would be his own money. He could then transfer the money to the director so that the children in the orphanage could eat better.
"Yes, Ms. Shen, I will definitely try my best."
"Alright, you can go back now. The results should be out this Friday. I'm really looking forward to seeing how many points you get."
In the following days, Wang Xinghe felt like someone was watching him as he walked around campus, but that didn't matter; studying was the most important thing.
Moreover, ever since Liu Qingmeng bought desserts for Wang Xinghe last time, she would buy him food from time to time and ask him to pick it up.
"Mengmeng, you don't need to buy any more, I can't eat anymore."
"Oh, baby, why are you being so polite with me? These are all Kyoto specialties, they're delicious. I always love to eat them, so I wanted you to try some too."
“You’re new to Kyoto and don’t know anyone here, so of course I need to take care of you! Just like if I went to Ningjiang, wouldn’t you take care of me too?”
"Hmm, that makes sense, but Mengmeng, I'm starting to feel a little embarrassed that you keep buying things for me."
"Oh, come on, come on. I'm your girlfriend, what's wrong with buying these things? It won't cost much."
"All right."
"By the way, baby, I got first place in the grade again in this monthly exam! Hehe, that was close. A classmate scored two points less than me and almost didn't get first place."
"Mengmeng is really amazing. We should be able to get the results tomorrow."
"Hehe, let's see how many points the baby gets on the test. (Looking forward to it!)"
"Come on, Xinghe, let's go have lunch." Wu Luoxi has been calling Wang Xinghe to go eat these past two days.
"Luo Xi, you go ahead, my girlfriend ordered takeout for me again."
"Oh, I ordered takeout for you again. Why do I order takeout for you every day?"
"Yes, I told her it wasn't necessary, but she still orders it every day."
"Okay then, I'll pack it up and eat it with you in the classroom."
"No need, Luo Xi, you can eat in the cafeteria."
"You must be lonely eating alone in the classroom. Perfect timing, I have a question to ask you, we can eat together and you can answer it for me."
Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Wang Xinghe had no choice but to agree.
Interestingly, this was actually Liu Qingmeng's intention, which was to prevent Wang Xinghe from eating with Wu Luoxi. However, unexpectedly, Wu Luoxi insisted on taking the food back to eat, and the two started competing remotely.
"Wow, Tongjude roast duck! It's so hard to buy. Your girlfriend is so good to you, actually buying roast duck from this place."
"Do you want some? I can't finish it all, I bought too much."
Liu Qingmeng directly ordered a roast duck for Wang Xinghe. How could he possibly finish that?
"Then I'll gladly accept your offer!" Wu Luoxi agreed immediately. She really liked this roast duck; it's safe to say that few people in Kyoto could resist it.
Wang Xinghe cleared out his desk and let Wu Luoxi sit in front of him.
The two sat down face to face.
"Eat quickly, the roast duck won't taste good when it gets cold."
"Yes, eat up! You should eat it like this. You're not eating it right. I'll teach you."
Wang Xinghe really doesn't know how to eat Peking duck; he eats it rather casually.
As she spoke, Wu Luoxi demonstrated it to Wang Xinghe and then handed it directly to him.
"Try it, maybe it will taste better this way."
Wang Xinghe took the exquisitely wrapped roast duck roll that Wu Luoxi had prepared and put it into his mouth in one bite.
"How is it? How is it? Isn't it delicious?"
"It seems so, but that's too much trouble. I prefer to be more casual."
“No, you can’t let such delicious food go to waste. This duck has quite a history. It goes through many procedures from start to finish and takes several hours. Let me roll it up for you, and you can eat it.” Wu Luoxi offered.
"I'm so sorry, but you need to eat too. You should eat, I can do it myself."
