Chapter 79



Final exams in late January. Without the burden of marking homework, teachers mark the papers very quickly. This time the results came out faster than the usual monthly exams. On the day after the test paper analysis was completed, the new ranking was also released.

After this semester, Zhang Zhiyuan has fully adapted to and mastered the learning rhythm of high school. He climbed up the rankings again and again, and finally reached second place in Class 2 at the end of the semester.

In this exam, the first and second place students’ scores exceeded those at the bottom of the class!

After everyone applauded, the teacher announced directly: "Chang Ran, Zhang Zhiyuan, both of you pack up and go over."

The teacher encouraged them: "Keep working hard! If you fall back into my hands, I will punish you severely!"

The classmates laughed and their envy was beyond words.

After thanking the teacher, the two students walked out. Zhang Zhiyuan was very gentlemanly and let the girl walk in front.

He was in a very calm mood. Because this result was not some unexpected surprise that fell from the sky; it was the result of his solid work step by step. Having come this far, I already know very clearly where I am and where to go next.

So although he was happy, he was not surprised and his heart was calm. But just as he was about to step out of the classroom, he couldn't help but look back.

The girl he wanted to see was also looking at him.

Zhang Yansheng secretly gave him a thumbs up.

Zhang Yansheng knew that once Zhang Zhiyuan left, he would not return to Class 2 for the next two and a half years. He will proceed step by step until he wins the title of "number one scholar" and goes to Q University, his dream university.

Go ahead.

Zhang Yansheng held his chin and smiled.

Zhang Zhiyuan also smiled slightly and walked out of Class 2.

In the corridor, people from several classes can be seen coming out. It is obvious that each class is making adjustments and waiting for these people to go to the new class so as to arrange the next things.

The students had different expressions, because some of them were transferred from a bad class to a good class, while others dropped from a good class to a bad class.

When Zhang Zhiyuan saw Xu Lichen in the corridor, who was carrying a schoolbag like him, he was stunned.

Because Xu Lichen is in Class 8. Very few people from Class 8 can pass the exam. Because even students in ordinary classes basically won’t perform worse than those in Class 8.

That guy...he looks so grim, could he have been expelled from school?

Xu Lichen is very upset now!

He has a stubborn nature in his bones, and Zhang Yansheng knows his character very well, so he used provocation to provoke him. He really fell for it, and in the last monthly exam he got a good result, ranking 100th from the bottom.

After meeting Zhang Yansheng alone at his home last time, Xu Lichen held his breath and wanted Zhang Yansheng to look at him differently. He had really reviewed seriously in the last few days.

Xu Lichen is actually a very smart person, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to rank among the bottom 100 with just his hard work. He just doesn't work hard normally.

As long as he works hard, he will be able to make it. He himself thinks so too.

However, Xu Lichen overlooked one thing—others also work hard!

In the last monthly exam, Xu Lichen, the punished student from Class 8, actually scored higher than many bottom-ranked students in ordinary classes. These class teachers often used Xu Lichen to stimulate their classmates in their own classes.

Xu Lichen held his breath and wanted Zhang Yansheng to look up to him. He studied hard at home, thinking that if he worked so hard, he would definitely be able to make it out of the last 100.

He didn't know that the students from other classes who were surpassed by him had also worked very hard and studied very hard in the last month!

Xu Lichen never expected that after working so hard, when the final rankings came out, he... actually dropped to the 72nd from the bottom!

I was stunned on the spot!

When the teacher praised him with a smile and asked him to pack up and go to Class 5, he was still in a daze as he walked in the corridor with his schoolbag on his back. I can’t figure out why the harder I work, the worse my ranking gets.

This doesn't make sense!

As he stepped into the new class, he forced himself to cheer up - he and these "good students" were not from the same country. These good kids might dislike him and might even join forces to exclude him.

Xu Lichen is not someone who will be bullied.

When Xu Lichen stepped into the classroom, he had already exuded a cool, handsome and domineering aura, ready to face the hostility from these good students at any time.

Unexpectedly, the new head teacher asked, "Is it Xu Lichen who was transferred from Class 8?"

He raised his head: "Yes!"

Before the sneer on his face could show, the head teacher had already stretched out his arms to him and said to the students in the class: "Classmates, everyone welcome Xu Lichen!"

The unprecedentedly enthusiastic applause frightened Xu Lichen so much that he couldn't help but take a step back, with his schoolbag even pressing against the blackboard!

What the fuck is going on? ? ?

Why did everyone look so curious and enthusiastic, as if they really welcomed him?

Xu Lichen didn't know that just before he came over, the head teacher had just used him to give a passionate speech to his classmates.

“So as long as you work hard, you will reap the rewards!”

“Even if he is a student in Class 8, if he works hard, he can move forward!”

"What determines where you can go and your position is not something else but your efforts and yourself!"

“Only hard work will not let you down!”

Immediately afterwards, the “hard-working” student Xu came.

The students who had just finished drinking the chicken soup looked at him as if he were a big chicken leg and gave him a warm welcome.

Xu Lichen was still confused until he sat down.

The teacher also spent a minute introducing the classmates around him.

On the left is the class monitor, on the right is the study committee member, behind is the discipline committee member, and in front... is the first place in this final exam, who is only two points away from entering the top class.

In this way, Xu Lichen integrated into the new class surrounded by "good kids" on all sides.

I don't know why, but I always feel dazed...

Zhang Yansheng's ranking has improved significantly and is now considered above average in Class 2.

This is mainly because her scores in physics and mathematics, which had been pulling her scores down in the past, were raised this time. The money, time and effort were not wasted.

Seeing this ranking, Zhang Yansheng knew that he was at least stable in Class 2 for now, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

After I had settled my own affairs, I looked for Xu Lichen on the big ranking, starting from the 100th place from the bottom... but I didn't find him.

Zhang Yansheng: “…” Did you still overestimate him?

Zhang Yansheng moved his gaze downwards and finally found Xu Lichen at a certain position. After calculating, he found that the ranking was around 70th place, which was lower than the ranking in the monthly exam.

But Zhang Yansheng was not as confused as Xu Lichen. She saw that his grades in various subjects were quite stable, and even improved compared to his previous monthly exam results. After a little thought, she understood why his ranking had dropped.

She knew how her classmates worked hard during the final exams.

She even guessed that Xu Lichen must not know - he always thinks he has worked hard enough, not knowing that there are people who work much harder than him.

But it doesn’t matter, this ranking is enough for him to be promoted to the next grade.

Zhang Yansheng originally wanted to ask Xu Lichen which class he went to, but when she finally saw him after school, Xu Lichen turned around and walked away as soon as he saw her!

Zhang Yansheng: “…”

Okay.

The school spent a day or two dealing with various class affairs and then the winter vacation began.

On the last day, Zhang Heling brought the certificate back to Zhang Huan, called him "Dad", and then shoved the "Study Star" certificate in his face!

The little girl's eyes were smiling and shining, full of anticipation.

Zhang Huan was very supportive and said, "He He is really amazing. Did you get another certificate? Tell dad, what place did you get in the exam this time?"

Zhang Heling puffed out his chest and said, "First in the grade!"

“Wow~” Zhang Huan clapped his hands, “Great!”

Zhang Heling raised his head: "Dad!"

Zhang Huan: “Hey!”

Zhang Heling looked at him expectantly with his bright black eyes. Zhang Huan: “?” I’ve already praised you!

Zhang Huan then asked: "Do you want something? Tell daddy."

Zhang Heling shook his head like a rattle: "No."

Continue to look at him expectantly.

Zhang Huan: “???”

Zhang Yansheng couldn't bear it any longer and coughed loudly.

Zhang Huan looked at her. Zhang Yansheng gave him a wink.

Zhang Huan didn't understand.

Zhang Yansheng held his breath and tilted his chin in a certain direction.

Zhang Huan turned his head to take a look, but there was nothing there.

He turned around and looked at Zhang Yansheng with an innocent and confused look in his eyes.

Zhang Yansheng: “…”

Zhang Yansheng took a deep breath and winked at his hand.

Zhang Huan looked at the certificate in his hand.

Zhang Yansheng raised his chin towards that side again.

Zhang Huan turned his head and looked over there again. There's... a wall over there.

Zhang Huan suddenly had an epiphany!

"Oh oh!" He reacted. "Well, put up the certificate! Put up the certificate! Ah, He He, go get the scissors and tape! Daddy will put the certificate up for you!"

Zhang Heling's face lit up, and he smiled and reached into his pocket...

He took out the tape with his left hand and the scissors with his right hand - he was ready.

Zhang Yansheng covered his eyes.

Zhang Huan felt very happy.

He pasted the new certificate, took a few steps back, put his hands on his hips and looked at it with his belly sticking out. Then he looked down at his little daughter's glowing face.

Suddenly I can appreciate the joy of raising children.

I also felt that I was really old - when I was young, I didn't have the patience to do these things, so I left them all to my wife. When his wife was done, she would wait for him to come back and pull him over, loudly telling him what award Yanyan had won, and wink at him.

So he understood what she meant and praised her by saying something like "Yanyan is awesome".

At that time, this was all he could give to his children, and he couldn't really calm down and appreciate the fun of it.

But now, he is old, and after settling down, his heart seems to be less impetuous. He looked at the blank walls and his little daughter's shining face, and felt happy from the bottom of his heart.

The sad thing about some men is that when they start being fathers, they are often not ready.

When they are finally ready, the child has grown up.
