Chapter 289 A hug, we are still good friends

Starting on April 27th and lasting for three days, No. 1 High School entered the state of mid-term exams.

For the first and second grade students, this is just a simple midterm exam.

But for high school seniors, this is not only the midterm exam, but also the second provincial joint mock exam, commonly known as the second model.

Generally speaking, the second model is the most difficult of the three mock exams, which tests the students' true level.

There are still many people in the first year of high school who are immersed in the joy of the three major football matches. Many people are even looking forward to the three major finals on the afternoon of the 30th when they are taking exams.

On the other hand, there are completely two atmospheres in the senior year.

However, the three grades are located in three different teaching buildings, so it is difficult for such an atmosphere to influence each other.

Li Luo, as the top student in the parallel class who ranked 23rd in the school at the beginning of the semester, still had to go upstairs to Class 1 for this exam.

In the afternoon and evening of the 29th.

Sitting in the penultimate seat in the third row in the middle of Class 1 examination room, Li Luo finished writing the geography paper. After checking it, he looked at the back of Ying Chanxi who was sitting in seat 1 by the window.

At this time, Ying Chanxi had already finished writing the test paper, but was still carefully checking and correcting errors.

According to Ying Chanxi, after completing the entire test paper, she will conduct three rounds of error correction.

The first time was to pay attention to the difficult points that she thought were difficult when doing the questions, and to check whether there were any errors or omissions or falling into the trap of the teacher who set the questions.

The second time is to pay special attention to the questions that can be solved directly based on some quick formulas or some problem-solving tips, and then do it again using the normal and formal problem-solving methods to make sure that there are no problems.

The last time is to check the entire volume, read it from beginning to end, and make final checks and fill in the gaps.

How should I put it...she still has her reasons for being the first in grade.

Anyway, Li Luo was too lazy to be so careful. After finishing the test paper, he looked at Ying Chanxi and was stared at by Teacher Sun who was invigilating the exam on the podium.

The average student would probably lower his head right now.

But Li Luo smiled at Teacher Sun, which made Teacher Sun speechless for a while.

Teacher Sun would not think that Li Luo was cheating. After all, during the exam, the 40 desks and chairs in the classroom were divided into five rows and were widely spaced in the middle. You couldn't see anything even if you wanted to.

It’s just that every time he takes an exam, this kid likes to look over the Yingchan River. Teacher Sun finally noticed it, and it was very unpleasant to think of them living under the same roof every day.

I am always worried that something will spark between these two children.

But fortunately, Ying Chanxi is well-behaved and sensible, and his academic talent and hard work are top-notch, so Teacher Sun doesn't need to worry about anything.

What gave him a headache was that in the past few days, he had privately talked to Ying Chanxi about the new college entrance examination and mathematics competitions, and also made plans with her for future sprints to Tsinghua and Peking University. kind of plan.

In the end, Ying Chanxi told him that she just wanted to be admitted to Qianjiang University...

At that time, Teacher Sun was so confused that he almost lost his breath.

Miao Zi, who ranks first in the whole grade, is sure to win the provincial first prize in the mathematics competition, and is a strong contender for the first grade in the country. You told me that you want to be admitted to Qianjiang University?

If the school leaders find out about this Taima, they will not scold him to death.

Teacher Sun couldn’t figure out Ying Chanxi’s brain circuit after much thought, but he was too embarrassed to ask why Ying Chanxi chose this way.

Because he probably guessed something...

It's just because of this guy Li Luo.

Li Luo is now ranked among the dozen or twenty students in the school. If placed in a parallel class, he is already very good. Teacher Sun has nothing to say.

But to be honest, although Tsinghua University and Peking University also have hope, this result is not stable.

At least he has to be in the top five in the school to be considered a stable Tsinghua and Peking University prospect. Everything else can only be said to be variable.

After all, the No. 1 Middle School is not among the top universities in the province, and its strength level is not that top-notch.

Just because I am backed by Qianjiang University, if I simply take the Qianjiang University exam, I will get some preferential treatment.

For example, policies such as Trinity Admissions are basically the easiest for students in the High School Affiliated to enjoy.

This also reduces the difficulty in a disguised way for candidates from the No. 1 Middle School to be admitted to Qianjiang University.

But this obviously has no effect on Tsinghua and Peking University, and they can only rely on their own hard power to do it with real swords and guns.

Therefore, although the Affiliated No. 1 Middle School now has nearly a hundred students admitted to Qianjiang University every year, the number of students admitted to Tsinghua and Peking University is basically only five or six.

When I was better, I was in my early teens.

No more and there will be no more.

Far inferior to the top schools in the city.

So obviously, even though Ying Chanxi was fully capable of getting admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University, he still chose to get admitted to Qianjiang University, obviously just to be in the same school as Li Luo.

So much so that when he saw Li Luo smiling at him after he finished writing, Teacher Sun suddenly had a bad expression. He snorted silently and turned his head away, not bothering to look at him.

Li Luo didn't understand either. He felt that Lao Sun had been a little bit critical of him in recent days, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

It’s not his class teacher anyway.

After finishing laughing, Li Luo closed his eyes and wandered around, watching "The Seven Heroes of Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit" in the memory palace, reminiscing about his childhood.

Soon, amid a burst of bells, the midterm exam ended successfully.

The next morning, the head teachers of each class came to their respective classes with a thick stack of documents in their hands.

Details of the plan for the new college entrance examination reform in Qianjiang Province were issued.

Kong Junxiang roughly wrote down a few key words on the blackboard, and then asked everyone to read through the specific details first.

After everyone understood it almost, I gave a detailed explanation and answered some doubts of the students.

We kept talking until almost ten o'clock in the morning. Kong Junxiang's mouth was dry. He took a sip of tea and breathed a long sigh of relief: "In short, this is the general situation."

"This May Day After you go home during the holidays, you'd better take this document and show it to your parents first to get a general understanding of the reform."

"In this way, parents can wait for next month. During the meeting, we chatted more smoothly, do you understand?”

After receiving responses from the Class 8 classmates, Kong Junxiang nodded and told them to study by themselves, and then named a few people.

"Li Luo, Lu Jiahao, Shi Yanran, Zhu Yufei, Zhang Guohuang, Ren Zheng."

"You six, come out."

When Li Luo heard his name, he thought about the other people who were called, and immediately guessed the reason why Kong Junxiang called them out.

Six people filed out and followed Kong Junxiang to the office on the fifth floor.

Kong Junxiang held the teacup in his hand. As soon as he sat down, he found that the water in it was empty.

Seeing this, Li Luo stretched out his hand: "Teacher Kong, I will get you some water."

"Okay."

Filled Kong Junxiang with tea, Li Luo Return to your desk.

Kong Junxiang took a sip of the warm water in his tea cup, and then said: "The reason why I asked you to come out is also related to the reform of the college entrance examination."

"When I was in the classroom just now, I also said Passed."

"Not only are you selecting three out of seven, but you can also take the exam for three minor subjects starting from the second year of high school, which will be used as the real score in the college entrance examination."

"So the school. We have done some preliminary research here, and considering that some of our students are relatively good at minor subjects, we have decided to try it out next semester and suggest that you sign up for the first selection exam.”

"In order to get good results in this exam, you need to go home and communicate with your parents."

"If possible, decide in advance which three minor subjects you want to choose after the parent-teacher meeting. Door."

"Then starting from mid-May, the school will arrange additional sprint classes, including during the summer vacation, until the first exam next year."

Speaking of this. , Kong Junxiang took another sip of tea to moisten his throat, and looked at the thoughtful students.

Then he added: "This sprint class is specifically targeted at those in the key classes, but your usual scores are within the top 160 in the school, so you are also within the scope of registration."

"Of course, the specific choice is in your own hands, and you still have to think carefully before making any decision."

"After all, your actual course learning is much slower than that of the key classes. If you really want to enter the sprint class, you will It’s very tiring to study, and we have to make up as much as possible for the remaining courses in the minor course in just a few months.”

“My suggestion is that we can only choose one minor course and join the sprint class.”

“If your learning effect is good, you can apply for the first selection test and try to get a high score, so that in the next two years, you can take care of one less course and be more relaxed.” 
“When you are on vacation this time, go home and tell your parents clearly what the specific problems are. You can wait until the parent-teacher meeting and we will discuss it in detail.”

Seeing the six people nodding, Kong Junxiang said: "Okay, Li Luo and Lu Jiahao will stay, and the others can go back to study first."

"Teacher Kong, is there anything else?" Li Luo looked at it. Zhu Yufei and the four of them left, and then asked curiously.

"What I just said, asking them to choose only one minor subject, is mainly for them, not for you two."

Kong Junxiang said, "Especially for you, Li Luo, It’s best to pass the three minor subjects at once.”

“Yeah.” Li Luo nodded, “That’s my idea too, but...”

“But what?” 
"Teacher Kong, let's forget about the sprint class?" Li Luo said hehe, "In fact, privately I have followed Ying Chanxi and completed all the high school content. I usually review with her and so on. It feels like There’s no need to take the sprint class.”

Kong Junxiang frowned when he heard what he said: “Really?”

“I don’t need to lie to you, Teacher Kong.”

"Wait a minute." Kong Junxiang stood up, walked to the bookcase in the office, looked up and down, then pulled out a stack of test papers and thought about it.

Taking the test paper and putting it back, Kong Junxiang pondered for a few seconds, then smiled helplessly: "You guys are really posing a problem for me. Do you just don't want to go to the sprint class?"

"Not really, it's just this kind of thing. The high-pressure learning method is not suitable for me." Li Luo coughed, "I prefer to study on my own in private, and the effect is much better than studying with a class."

"That's it," Kong Junxiang thought about it and then smiled. He said, "After the sprint class is established, internal tests will be conducted on various subjects, and the content will be the knowledge framework of the entire high school."

"I will register you first. If you can In the test, your scores in the three minor subjects are all in the top 20, so I won’t require you to participate in the sprint class.”

The registration for this sprint class has 160 people in the key class, plus some students in the parallel classes. Ba signed up to participate, and the total number of people was estimated to be about two hundred.

Divided into seven minor subjects, the average number of students in each minor subject is about 100.

It is actually quite difficult to get into the top twenty.

After all, he occasionally gets into the top 20 in the school rankings, which doesn’t mean he is in the top 20 in every subject. There is still a big difference.

However, Li Luo nodded and agreed.

After all, with Ying Chanxi and Xu Youyu at home, who would abandon the near and seek the far away, and have to go to school to take some kind of sprint class?

For liberal arts, ask your senior, and for science, ask Xixi.

Much more reliable than the sprint class.

After coming out of Kong Junxiang's office and finishing the self-study, Li Luo went to the cafeteria with Yan Zhusheng and the others to eat.

While eating, Ying Chanxi quietly asked Li Luo: "Has your head teacher told you?"

"Sprint class?"

"Yeah."

"You also have to participate in the key classes, right?" Li Luo asked curiously.

"Yes, but I won't participate." Ying Chanxi shook his head and said, "I have learned all the knowledge points in high school, and I am also taking competitive classes during the summer vacation." "Fortunately, I don't plan to participate either."

“Huh?” Ying Chanxi was stunned for a moment, “You, you won’t participate?”

"Yes, you won't participate, why should I participate in this?"

"But..." Ying Chanxi blinked, thinking that even if she didn't participate in the sprint class, she would still have to come to school to take the competition class during the summer vacation. If If Li Luo can take the sprint class, the two of them can go to and from school together.

After all, Xu Youyu will definitely not come to school during the summer vacation when he is a sophomore in high school.

Yan Zhusheng’s grades are not good enough to enter the sprint class.

In this way, she can go to and from school alone with Li Luo.

The result...

"Why don't you go up?"

"I have you." Li Luo said, "If I have any problems, I can come to you directly to solve them. It's better than going up. The sprint class is much more reliable."

"But, but..." Ying Chanxi couldn't say anything for a while. After hearing what Li Luo said, it seemed to be okay.

"Don't worry about so much." Li Luo waved his hand and said, "This college entrance examination reform may seem complicated, but in fact it is just one thing now."

"Prepare to take the exam for the first time. Take the three minor subjects. Get as high a score as possible. Try to get 100 points in three subjects. That's it."

"There is a football match in the afternoon, don't think too much."

Things about course selection and exam selection have been put aside for the time being.

After lunch and a short break in the classroom, Li Luo and Yan Zhusheng set off early and went all the way to the rock club activity room on the second floor of the gymnasium.

At this time, Niu Qingling and the others had already arrived, and people from the student union also came here to help them move the equipment to the court on the first floor and adjust the sound of the equipment.

According to the order of the afternoon games, first is table tennis, then badminton, and finally the basketball final.

So now, in addition to the equipment of the rock club, a table tennis table has been set up in the center of the field.

Zhao Rongjun came here early to prepare for warm-ups, and he looked a little nervous.

After Li Luo followed the members of the student union down, he came behind him and patted his shoulder with a smile: "Brother Jun, I'll cheer you on later. Play hard. After the fight, let's celebrate the championship together in the evening. . ”

“It’s not certain whether we can win.” Zhao Rongjun rubbed his racket nervously, not as confident as Li Luo.

Xie Shuchen on the side also came over and said to Li Luo: "Table tennis doesn't matter, but you Class 8 basketball players may not be able to beat us, so don't make any conclusions in advance."

Li Luo smiled: "Then we'll see then."

Although the basketball finals will be coming soon, there is no tension between the two of them.

I have to say that the characters of Xie Shuchen and Liu Shaowen are not that difficult to get along with, but because they want to pursue Ying Chanxi, they have some thoughts and behaviors that sometimes make Li Luo a little difficult.

When Ying Chanxi is not involved, these two people are quite normal, and there is no problem in getting along as friends.

This time in the match between Class 1 and Class 8, the atmosphere was not as bad as the last time we played against Class 7.

As time goes by.

Soon it was one o'clock in the afternoon.

The bell for gathering for exercises came from the teaching building.

Probably I hope that the senior high school students can relax after the second model, so not only the first and second grade students, but also the senior students can line up to watch this game.

In about half an hour, all the seats in the stadium were filled.

Li Luo went to the bathroom on the second floor to use the toilet before the show started.

As soon as I came out after washing my hands, I bumped into Xu Youyu at the corner.

"Huh?" Xu Youyu saw Li Luo, looked around, then smiled slyly, pulled Li Luo directly into a remote corridor, and pushed him against the wall, "Little brother "The basketball finals will be coming soon, right?"

"Senior sister...what's the matter with you?" Li Luo looked at her with a headache and said helplessly, "The performance is about to begin. I still have to go downstairs to prepare."

"Ha..." Xu Youyu said with a smile, "Well, good luck in the finals. If you win... let me think about it~ What reward do you want this time? "

"Reward me with a more normal senior?"

"Are you saying that I am not normal now?"

"How can I bully my juniors like this? "

"Haha~" Xu Youyu couldn't help being amused by him, and his chest trembled under the wrapping of his school uniform, "Where is the bullying here? I just care about you, so I just picked up the information."

"The male and female protagonists in your book are like that, do you still need this level of information?"

"Why not? Or you mean..." Xu Youyu raised his eyebrows and his knees touched him. In the gap between his legs, he narrowed his eyes and looked at him ambiguously, "You don't want to be like the senior sister, do you?"

"...I didn't say that."

"I hesitated for two and a half seconds." Xu Youyu chuckled, "Are all boys so duplicitous?"

"I'm afraid Uncle Xu will just hack me to death." Li Luo rolled his eyes at her.

"How could it be?" Xu Youyu waved his hand, "Didn't you see the time my dad broke into your hotel room last time? Others are much more sensible and won't really do anything to you."

"But..."

"Looking at what you said, do you really want to attack me if my dad agrees?"

"Eh~ No. Thinking that you are such a junior."

Li Luo was speechless: "...it was obviously you who said it first."

"I'm just collecting information, what about you?"

"Do you think I will write down your recent performance in the book?" Li Luo squinted his eyes and said, "By the way, next time Uncle Xu's parents Come to dinner on the day of the meeting, and I will discuss with him the real-life materials for the creation of online articles, and tell him how the inspiration for certain plots came about."

"How dare you!" Xu Youyu glared at him, a little bit. Urgent.

But Li Luo chuckled: "So senior sister, you should be more honest, otherwise not only this, maybe one day when I am in a good mood, I will share with Uncle Xu who the author of "The Age of Literature and Art" is. Who is it?"

"No..." When Xu Youyu saw this, he suddenly showed a pitiful expression, and actually pulled Li Luo back and leaned directly against the other wall of the corridor, turning into Li Luobi. Boom her posture.

Then she bit her lip and begged: "Junior, as long as you don't tell my father about this, I can promise you anything, even if it's that kind of thing. ...It's okay...please."

Bewildered by the senior's superb acting skills, Li Luo almost fell into the drama.

Fortunately, there was a faint sound of footsteps coming from the corner of the corridor, which woke Li Luo up. He quickly took two steps back, leaving Xu Youyu aside, and widened the distance between them.

Soon, the footsteps in the corridor gradually approached, and finally appeared at the corner.

Yan Zhusheng's figure appeared here, turned to look at Li Luo and Xu Youyu, and asked with a confused look on his face: "Didn't you come up to use the toilet? Why are you here?"

"Ahem..." Li Luo adjusted his pants vaguely, turned around and walked towards Yan Zhusheng, "It's nothing, I just asked him to chat for a few words. Senior, if there's nothing wrong, I'll leave first." 
"Go ahead, go ahead." Xu Youyu waved to him with a smile, "Come on for the Zhusheng finals too."

"Well, thank you, senior sister." Yan Zhusheng nodded and followed. Li Luo walked downstairs.

Just when passing by the door of the rock club's activity room, Yan Zhusheng suddenly grabbed Li Luo's sleeve and pulled him into the empty activity room.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Yan Zhusheng shook his head, then raised his head and looked at Li Luo, opened his hands, "give me a hug."

"Why do you want to hug me again?"

"This time it's for encouragement before the final." Yan Zhusheng said seriously, "Come on for the basketball final."

After saying that, Yan Zhusheng couldn't wait to hug her. Come up.

Li Luo was gradually used to being hugged by her soft body. He held her in his arms with his backhand. Following the rules of mutual encouragement between good friends, he said in her ear: "Come on for the badminton final." .”

The activity room on the second floor of the gymnasium is mainly located around the ceiling of the gymnasium, roughly forming an enveloping corridor and room.

So looking down from the window of the activity room, you can clearly see the basketball court below and the surrounding auditorium.

If you look down from the window of the rock club activity room, you can directly see the position occupied by the first class of high school at this time.

Ying Chanxi was sitting in the first class seat, holding the drinks and snacks he bought at the canteen at noon, talking and laughing with Qiao Xinyan beside him.

If she raised her head at this moment and looked carefully toward the window of the rock club activity room, she would probably be able to see two vague and familiar figures, hugging each other tightly at the moment.

"It's time to end the encouragement from good friends." In the activity room on the second floor, Li Luo saw that Yan Zhusheng was still not letting go, and immediately reminded, "The president and the others are still waiting."

"Yes." Yan Zhusheng was a little reluctant to give up, but he still let go of Li Luo obediently, with his ponytail raised up and down, and followed Li Luo downstairs.

A few minutes later.

As the host's opening remarks ended, the principal who came to watch the game enthusiastically announced that the game officially started.

Li Luo and others immediately stepped onto the stage.

Under the guidance of Niu Qingling's drum set, exciting music sounded.

Yan Zhusheng stood in front of the microphone, opened his eyes, and inhaled slowly.

“I want to fly into the sky and stand side by side with the sun~The world is waiting for me to change~”

“I am never afraid of others seeing my dreams~I can realize them here~” 
As soon as Yan Zhusheng opened her voice, she easily attracted everyone's attention and became the only focus in the stadium.

The boys and girls in the audience all focused their attention on this tall girl who released her loud singing voice.

But probably no one would have thought of it.

Just a few minutes ago, this girl with exciting singing was in the activity room on the second floor, still begging Li Luo for a hug.

But just when Li Luo was looking at Yan Zhusheng’s radiant back in front of him, Yan Zhusheng had just finished singing the climax of the first half of the chorus when she turned around, handed the microphone to him, and gave him his The guitar was taken away.

Li Luo: "?"

"You sing too." Yan Zhusheng leaned close to his ear and whispered to him.

Li Luo smiled helplessly and turned to look at Niu Qingling and the others.

Niu Qingling also smiled and gave him a thumbs up.

Xie Shuchen and Shao Youpeng also laughed and winked at him in encouragement.

So Li Luo walked to the center of the stage with the microphone, listened to the music in his ears, and took a slow breath.

“I believe I am who I am~ I believe in tomorrow! I believe youth has no horizon~”

Perfectly following Yan Zhusheng’s first half, Li Luo’s singing quickly conquered the audience.

Ying Chanxi was the only one sitting in the audience, and the image of Yan Zhusheng whispering in Li Luo's ear kept flashing through his mind, and he couldn't help biting his lip.

But looking at Li Luo's brilliance on the stage, she couldn't help but her eyes lit up.

So handsome.
