Rebirth of the Rich Second Generation's Growth Diary

Chapter 126: High School Ends! [Volume Finale]

Time has flown by quickly since returning from the capital.

Half of the semester has passed in the blink of an eye.

For Li Xu, this period of time is only one sixty to one seventy percent of the years he has lived.

To say it was fleeting is no exaggeration.

But for most of their peers, this is the first time in their lives.

The time was long and monotonous.

The countdown numbers for the college entrance examination remind them again and again that they must not relax, absolutely not relax.

An Duoduo's efforts paid off.

Her grades got higher and higher.

In contrast, she ran to the playground with a basketball less and less often.

The number of times I secretly eat potato chips during class is also decreasing.

The number of times I laugh out loud is also decreasing.

In fact, Li Xu was a little worried about An Duoduo.

An Duoduo's talent in studying is not that outstanding.

Fortunately, diligence can make up for lack of talent.

However, if the price is becoming depressed, then it is not worth it.

It seemed that he sensed Li Xu's worry.

One day, An Duoduo, who was doing her homework quietly, suddenly raised her head and looked at Li Xu who was looking at her.

Then he gave a meaningful smile.

"Li Xu, you don't have to worry about me so much. Isn't this normal for a high school student?"

Li Xu didn't hide it and said with a smile: "But you are different from ordinary high school students."

An Duoduo didn't respond and changed the subject.

She asked, "Li Xu, how do you feel about being my deskmate?"

Li Xu answered without hesitation: "I think it's good."

"Then do you want to be my deskmate forever?"

"Okay."

"Then it's settled."

After a brief question and answer session, An Duoduo immersed herself in the intensive study again.

After Li Xu came to his senses, he tasted the flavor.

What she meant was...

Then some people looked at An Duoduo with strange expressions.

At this moment, she was drawing a vertical auxiliary line on the math problem stroke by stroke.

Li Xu slowly withdrew his gaze.

On this day, the leaves of the trees outside the window had already turned yellow.

The harvest season comes so quickly.

……

Compared to An Duoduo, who is struggling with both happiness and depression, Xia Xiaohe and her brother seem to be much more passionate about their studies.

Because Xia Xiaohe and Xia Xiaomiao each became a boarding student.

Naturally, their contact with Li Xu became less, but Li Xu always paid attention to their lives.

I would go look for them from time to time.

I have to say that both the brother and sister are gifted in learning.

Xia Xiaohe used to study in a middle school in the countryside. There were no tutoring exercise books and the teachers were average.

But even in such an environment, she was able to rely on herself to score over 130 points in English and math before dropping out of school in her previous life.

In this life, starting from junior high school, she has enjoyed almost the best educational resources in the province.

In addition, without the worries of life, she can devote all her time and energy to studying.

There is no need to worry about messy and trivial things such as spring sowing and autumn harvest, feeding pigs, and cutting grass for pigs.

Compared with the Xia Xiaohe that Li Xu knew in his previous life, her grades have undergone a drastic and drastic change.

As Li Xu's junior in the same school, she was directly admitted to the Tsinghua and Peking University classes when the subjects were divided.

The target is directly aimed at Peking University and Tsinghua University.

In terms of studying alone, Xia Xiaohe is better than him.

But when it comes to the most amazing person, it is naturally her younger brother Xia Xiaomiao.

The year Li Xu was in his senior year of high school, Xia Xiaomiao was already in junior high school.

How amazing can a junior high school student’s mathematical talent be?
Let’s put it this way, in the junior high school of No. 6 Middle School where Xia Xiaomiao is located, no one in the three grades can call themselves a genius in front of him.

Even a student like Ye Ruida, who is recognized as a genius, was surprised by the talent displayed by Xia Xiaomiao.

After Xia Xiaomiao entered junior high school, she began to formally participate in mathematics competitions.

At Li Xu's suggestion, in addition to participating in mathematics competitions, he also began to get involved in computer-related things.

Compared with Ye Ruida and Liu Yunfei, although they are also experts in computers, there is no doubt that Li Xu trusts Xia Xiaomiao more.

Of course, in a sense, Xia Xiaomiao is not much different from other people.

However, Li Xu's intuition told him that Xia Xiaomiao would not betray him.

Although Ye Ruida and Liu Yunfei are also partners, in Li Xu's heart, their importance is relatively less than Xia Xiaomiao.

When this semester entered the midterm, it was approaching National Day.

Li Xu's idea was to take Xia Xiaomiao and Xia Xiaohe, brother and sister, to visit the scenic spots near Jinchuan City.

To be honest, the brother and sister stayed in Jinchuan City for such a long time, but they didn’t actually have a good time to explore the city.

Li Xu borrowed an imported Mustang off-road vehicle from his father's friend, planning to take them to visit nearby attractions first, and then drive to the suburbs to find a river beach for off-roading and barbecue.

In comparison, it became more convenient after the development of domestic off-road vehicles more than ten years later. You can drive a car with an electric oven or induction cooker and do anything.

Now I can only carry a gas stove to grill.

Li Xu drove the Ford Mustang and stopped steadily at the agreed location, and took Xia Xiaohe and Xia Xiaomiao, brother and sister, into the car.

It was afternoon, and the sun was shining brightly on the earth, giving everything around it a warm golden glow.

The brother and sister had never seen such a large off-road vehicle in the countryside. Even when they were studying in Jinchuan City, they rarely had the opportunity to see one.

Xia Xiaohe was fine, but Xia Xiaomiao widened his eyes, his gaze full of curiosity and amazement, staring at the tall and mighty off-road vehicle without blinking.

The domineering body lines and wide tires emit a unique metallic luster under the sunlight, like a giant beast ready to gallop at any time.

Li Xu found it a little funny and said, "I'll buy one myself in the future!"

Xia Xiaomiao hesitated for a moment.

Children from poor families have to grow up early. Although he is still young, he has already established the concept of money.

The domineering Ford Mustang in front of you has smooth body lines, the metallic luster is particularly dazzling in the sun, and the wide tires show its grandeur.

Although he didn't know the exact price of the car, he knew in his heart that even if he collected all the valuable things in his house and sold them, he would still be far from being able to buy such a car.

So, Xia Xiaomiao shook her head slightly and said seriously, "Even if I sell my sister, I still can't afford it."

When Xia Xiaohe heard this, his eyes widened instantly, full of disbelief. He stared at Xia Xiaomiao, as if to confirm whether he had heard it wrong.

Li Xu couldn't help but burst into laughter as he watched this scene. His hearty laughter echoed in the air. He smiled and said, "I don't know about the other people in your family, but if you sell your sister, I'll give you ten cars like this."

When Xia Xiaomiao heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, like stars suddenly lighting up in the dark night. She was overjoyed, her mouth slightly open, and was about to respond.

But before he could utter a word, Xia Xiaohe reacted and pulled him over and beat him up.

It has to be said that the local environment and climate determine the local people.

After going to school in Jinchuan City, the brother and sister were rarely exposed to the wind and rain, which was completely different from the countryside where they used to live.

Moreover, in such key high schools, the school cafeteria offers a combination of meat and vegetables, providing nutritional value.

Over the past year or so, the two of them have changed dramatically.

Xia Xiaohe was originally very cute, but when she was in the countryside, she was short and had not grown up yet. Although her skin was much better than those girls in the countryside, generally speaking, there were still some marks due to frequent exposure to wind and cold.

But now Xia Xiaohe is fair and clean. In order to facilitate her studies, she cut off her long braids and kept a short hairstyle. She is also much taller than before.

In the warm autumn sun, her fair face was faintly flushed, and her whole body was filled with youthful vigor.

The only thing that remained unchanged was that her facial features were still delicate and cute, and when she saw Li Xu, she still had a shy smile on her face.

In comparison, Xia Xiaomiao's changes are more obvious.

When Li Xu was in the first year of high school, Xia Xiaomiao was in the fifth grade. Now Xia Xiaomiao is in the first year of junior high school.

His height also shot up suddenly, and he was estimated to be about 1.5 meters tall now. Compared to his peers in the city, Xia Xiaomiao was not tall, and could even be said to be short, but compared to his previous self, he had already undergone a significant change.

He stood beside the car, touching the body of the car from time to time, his eyes full of love for the car.

Li Xu drove them towards the suburbs.

Outside the car window, the hustle and bustle of the city gradually faded, replaced by ever-widening fields and rolling hills. Clouds drifted leisurely in the azure sky like casually torn cotton candy. This car's off-road capabilities were undoubtedly impeccable. With its large frame, the car's safety was undeniable even on the open road.

In a head-on collision, only trucks would make it a little afraid, but riding in them can be said to be completely uncomfortable.

Li Xu was driving while sighing, wondering why he liked driving this kind of car in his previous life?
However, if you want to go to the suburbs where there are unpaved roads, a car like this is definitely safer.

Li Xu said, "Because we are going to the riverbank later, we need to drive this car more steadily. It's not that comfortable to sit in."

Xia Xiaohe and Xia Xiaomiao were both a little surprised. Xia Xiaohe said, "I feel very comfortable."

It was obvious that Xia Xiaohe and Xia Xiaomiao had no idea about the comfort of the car. In their perception, this car must be very expensive. Since it was a very expensive car, everything in it should be very good. Even if they felt that it was not so comfortable to sit in, it must be their own fault.

Li Xu smiled dumbly and said, "As long as you feel comfortable."

The car drove smoothly to a wild river beach near Jinchuan City.

In front of me is an open river beach. The water by the river is crystal clear and sparkling in the sunlight, like countless tiny diamonds scattered on the water. The reeds sway gently in the breeze, making a rustling sound.

It can be seen that people often camp in this area, and traces of cars can be seen on the ground.

Li Xu took out a few folding chairs and a folding table from the car and set up the barbecue grill.

Over there, Xia Xiaohe had already prepared the ingredients for the barbecue very skillfully.

Autumn is a beautiful season. The mountains in the distance have soft lines rising and falling, and the yellow and green colors look like they were carefully mixed and painted by God with a palette. Some of the trees in the mountains have been dyed golden, while others are still green, intertwined with distinct layers.

Barbecuing is not a technically demanding cooking skill, at least that's what Li Xu thinks.

Brush a layer of oil, then a layer of material, then a layer of oil, then another layer of material. There is no creativity at all.

It is difficult for Li Xu to get pleasure when cooking like this, but Xia Xiaohe can find fun in it.

She hummed a little tune as she slowly cut vegetables and meat, and then strung the ingredients together beautifully.

The autumn sunshine shines on her, outlining her focused and beautiful figure.

Seeing that she was so happy at work, Li Xu felt at ease and went to the side to take a break.

He found two small stools and placed them by the river, and brought over the fishing rod and fishing gear. Xia Xiaomiao happily ran over to fish with him.

The water plants by the river sway gently in the water, and occasionally a few small fish swim by, causing tiny ripples.

It was beautifully quiet, with only the sound of the breeze across the water and the chirping of birds in the distance.

During this process, they naturally talked about the previous competition. What made Li Xu very happy was that even if there were contents that many undergraduates could hardly understand, Xia Xiaomiao could listen with great interest through slow explanations. There was nothing complicated about the content of their competition.

The more Xia Xiaomiao listened, the more fascinated he became. His eyes followed Li Xu closely. He raised his head from time to time, with a gleam in his eyes, and it was unknown what he was thinking about.

Li Xu said that he still failed to beat the Tsinghua and Peking University teams in the final competition. Although his words seemed a bit pretentious, after all, as a high school student, losing to the geniuses of the Tsinghua and Peking University teams was something worth talking about anyway.

But Xia Xiaomiao obviously didn't hear the "little thoughts" in Li Xu's words. Instead, she really felt that Li Xu regretted it.

He finally spoke, his face serious and full of determination. "When I grow up, I will join your team. With me and Brother Ye Ruida, you will be like having Crouching Dragon and Phoenix. We will definitely be able to defeat the Tsinghua and Peking University teams!"

Li Xu blinked and was speechless for a moment. He laughed dryly and said, "Uh, well... okay."

Xia Xiaomiao then continued to ask, "Brother Li Xu, did you lose because of Lei Yinbing?"

Li Xu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect him to ask this question. He quickly shook his head and said, "Uh... He still performed quite well. This shouldn't be the reason."

But Xia Xiaomiao seemed to have already grasped his own ideas and found the crux of the matter. He lowered his head, frowning, lost in thought. Then, with a serious expression, he said, "Alas, there's nothing we can do. In times like that, we can only let him fill in."

The corners of Li Xu's mouth twitched slightly, and he sighed slowly, thinking to himself, Lei Yinbing, ah Lei Yinbing, these words were not said by me.

Just then, he felt a slight tug on the fishing rod. Li Xu's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "Looks like I've taken the bait!"

He quickly grabbed the fishing rod and shook it upwards, and ended up hooking two pieces of water plants.

It really proves the saying that when the water is too clear, there will be no fish.

The water seems turbid from a distance, but the closer you get to the riverbank, the clearer it becomes. The water flows slowly, and you can clearly see the sand and rocks at the bottom of the river.

Li Xu hooked the two water plants in front of him. Xia Xiaomiao beside him said, "Brother Li Xu, don't you know that when the water is too clear, there will be no fish?"

Li Xu smiled, sat down leisurely, and said with a relaxed look: "It's not important. It wasn't for fishing in the first place."

As he spoke, he threw the fishing hook into the river again. The fishing hook entered the water, splashing a circle of small ripples.

Xia Xiaomiao asked curiously, "What's that for?"

Li Xu said: "To waste time."

Xia Xiaomiao looked bewildered and repeated, "Waste of time?"

Li Xu patiently explained, "We cherish time every moment, all for the day when we can waste time with a clear conscience. When we have the freedom to waste time anytime and anywhere, that is when we truly gain freedom."

Xia Xiaomiao had a thoughtful expression on her face, tilting her head as she pondered these words carefully.

Over there, Xia Xiaohe had already lit the stove. Curls of smoke rose up, and the aroma of barbecue drifted over, mixed with the scent of soil and grass by the river, filling the air.

Looking at this scene, Xia Xiaomiao suddenly showed a thoughtful expression.

……

Time flies, and winter is gone and spring is here in the blink of an eye.

For Li Xu, after obtaining the qualification for admission, the rest of his high school life seemed a bit boring.

During the first semester, he will return to the classroom to attend classes.

However, as many classmates either participate in various competitions or attend various extracurricular training classes, there are always a large number of empty seats in a class.

Or some students on loan may come in.

In short, by the time you reach senior year of high school, no one cares who is next to you.

In order to further improve her grades, An Duoduo also signed up for a training class.

By the second semester, Li Xu rarely went to school.

Of course, now is not the time to completely relax.

After all, the university he was about to enter was the best university in the country, and the management school of this university was the best among them.

Li Xu was not completely confident that he could keep up with the teaching progress.

Sometimes he couldn't help but wonder what kind of geniuses and powerful people were there, and he himself was not a genius.

So, to be on the safe side, Li Xu went to Tsinghua University and Peking University as an auditor in advance.

For him, this was not a difficult thing. He didn't even need to use his father's connections. He just needed to report to Dean Qi of the School of Management.

After all, Li Xu's special admission notice was given to him by Dean Qi, so it is certainly not a bad thing to request to get in touch with the courses in advance.

Dean Qi gave him a course schedule from freshman to senior year and suggested that he take the freshman courses first and then directly audit them.

In his previous life, Li Xu didn’t even finish high school, so naturally he had no idea what college was like.

After actually entering this top domestic university, experiencing the atmosphere firsthand, and listening to lectures from the best teachers, Li Xu's cognitive abilities improved subtly in just a few months.

It's hard to describe the feeling of being lifted from the inside out.

Although he has not yet had much formal communication and interaction with the outstanding students in this school, the atmosphere of free innovation and bold exploration in this school has already brought him great benefits.

He also gradually understood the difference in abilities between students from prestigious schools and those who had not attended college.

To put it bluntly, those who can stand out in this kind of school can achieve excellent results no matter what field they are placed in.

Li Xu couldn't help but think that all the good movies of the new generation in his previous life were made by academic masters who were not from professional backgrounds.

Doing anything to the extreme often falls into the realm of engineering management. Without a college entrance examination score of 500 or 600, it is impossible to do it.

On the one hand, he clearly felt his own progress and was full of anticipation for his upcoming university life.

On the other hand, he is full of confidence in taking charge of his father's business in the future.

Now I have a budding team, and I have entered the management school of the best university, and my personal abilities will also be improved.

On this basis, the experiences of the previous life can now gradually see through to the essence, which reflects the unparalleled predictive ability and vision.

Although I still don’t quite understand how I failed miserably in my previous life.

But now he has continued to settle down in college for a few more years and further found trustworthy team members. He can't figure out how he can lose in this life!
Of course, Li Xu’s preparations went far beyond this.

Although he is not short of money, he still made several other preparations, including Bitcoin.

He is a person who has been reborn, so he naturally understands that he should make full use of all the conditions that he can use.

For him, buying a house or buying some stocks that he knows will rise sharply in the future is actually not particularly meaningful.

After all, given the funds he currently has available, the leverage ratio of real estate investment can only multiply the money several times.

This is even more true when buying stocks. If you enter the stock market as a retail investor and invest a small amount, it may not have an impact on the market.

But if he really wants to obtain the amount of funds that can influence his future destiny, he will inevitably break the established rules of the game and trigger various chain reactions. In this way, the future will no longer be the future he knows.

In comparison, only Bitcoin is relatively safe.

However, Li Xu did not invest too much money and energy in Bitcoin.

His idea is simply to regard Bitcoin as a trump card that can be played unexpectedly in the future and play a role at a critical moment.

All in all, the last period of senior year was a bit sloppy.

When he returned to school in June, he even found it difficult to adapt to being a senior high school student.

Fortunately, this experience doesn't last long.

Although he didn't have to take the college entrance examination, Li Xu still chose to stay in school during these crucial days, accompanying a few close friends and spending the last unforgettable time of their high school years together.

A few days later, the college entrance examination was over.

The first stage of Li Xu's life after rebirth came to a perfect end.
