Back to high school, Peking University is beckoning me

Ruan Fuxi and the monitor were about to go get the books when they saw two girls in front of them hurried out. Ruan Fuxi just glanced at them and didn't pay any attention. Then he and the monitor went to the playground to gather.

Lu Youning and her classmates arrived at the playground just before the end of the Athletes' March. Today, during the break, Class 8 had skipping rope and bamboo pole dancing. Students could choose to participate based on their preferences.

In the bustling campus square, students who were beating bamboo poles stood in two rows, rhythmically opening and closing the bamboo poles in their hands, making crisp clashing sounds, accompanied by cheerful music.

Lu Youning took Lu Yixiao's hand and danced with other classmates, as if playing a unique melody.

Lu Youning stepped lightly between the bamboo poles. Her steps were flexible and agile, and her slender ankles were exposed due to her jumping. She sometimes touched the ground and sometimes jumped in rhythm with the opening and closing of the bamboo poles, like a cheerful butterfly dancing among the flowers.

Ruan Fuxi watched the bamboo pole dance for the first time and stood quietly by, his eyes fixed on the young woman dancing among the bamboo poles. She was light and agile, with a faint smile on her face and her large almond-shaped eyes curved into crescents.

"What a cute girl." Ruan Fuxi thought to himself with a smile on his face.

Every precise step and jump demonstrates the tacit understanding and skills of the pole-tappers and dancers.

The students watching were infected by the enthusiastic atmosphere and applauded and cheered, their faces filled with excitement and joy.

After the break, Lu Youning and the others were sweating. "Xiaoxiao, let's go to the supermarket and buy a bottle of water. I'm thirsty and hot now."

"Let's go, I'm a little hungry."

Lu Youning and Lu Yixiao walked towards the classroom while eating. After returning to the classroom, Lu Youning picked up the draft book and used it as a fan.

The electric fan above my head was turned to the maximum speed and was blowing "whoosh".

As soon as Gu Siyuan returned to his seat, he rudely pulled Lu Youning's tissue. He said flatteringly, "Sister Ning, lend me some tissues. Look how sweaty I am." Of course, these tissues were never returned.

"Use it. I use it often."

……

It has been a month since the start of school, and the head teacher announced that the first monthly exam will be held next Monday.

The entire class was suddenly plunged into a tense learning atmosphere. There were noticeably fewer students chatting and playing in the corridors during breaks. The boys stopped discussing games, and the girls put away their celebrity magazines. Instead, the sounds of self-conscious review and questioning filled the air.

Lu Youning hasn't taken an exam in years, so I wonder how her hard work has paid off. We'll know whether she's a good student or not once we take her out for a walk.

Know your shortcomings and strive to make progress.

"What should I do? I feel like I haven't even learned enough and the exam has already started." Lu Yixiao cried to Lu Youning.

"I can't go out and play when I go back this weekend. If I do too badly on the test, I'll definitely be punished by my parents for mixed doubles and have to go to cram school," said Gu Siyuan.

"Ningning, can you lend me your English notebook?" Lu Yixiao's eyes flickered, and she clasped her hands together in a pleading manner.

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Lu Youning couldn't help but pinch her cute round face. "Take it."

The exam began soon. When Lu Youning got the test paper, he breathed a sigh of relief. Most of the questions tested the new knowledge learned this month and were relatively simple.

The three core subjects of Chinese, Math, and English were more challenging. The Chinese multiple-choice questions included questions that tested pronunciation and phonetic symbols. Since it's easy to mispronounce some characters, it's easy to choose the wrong answer on these questions. The extracurricular classical Chinese text analysis was also quite challenging.

English is about reading comprehension and writing, which all depends on daily accumulation.

The mathematics section had some extensions of the after-class exercises and questions that required clever thinking, as well as a big question that was clearly beyond the syllabus. Lu Youning tried to answer it, but still had no idea and didn't force himself.

Subjects such as politics, history and geography, which all require memorization, are relatively easy for Lu Youning. Now that she has a good memory, she can memorize them quickly after reading them several times.

After the exam, the students burst into tears.

"Before the exam, I thought the subject I was most confident in was Chinese. I never expected that even Chinese would backstab me. Ugh, my pocket money is gone."

"English is so weird. I can't understand what it's saying during the reading comprehension part. There are so many new words. And I can't finish a single word in the essay. I either forget the word or miss the letter."

Lu Youning returned to the classroom feeling a little nervous. Although she felt good overall, she was not sure whether her answer was completely correct.

Lu Yixiao slumped over the table, looking dejected: "It's over, it's over. I'm definitely going to fail this time."

Gu Siyuan also shook his head: "Me too, I'm not sure about many questions."

Lu Youning comforted them, "Don't be so pessimistic. The results haven't come out yet."

The monitor also said quickly: "Yes, it's the same for everyone. Maybe when the results come out, they won't be as bad as you think."

The teachers at No. 1 Middle School are very fast at grading papers. The results of the subjects that were taken the day before were available the next day after the exam.

Everyone was still immersed in the depressed mood of failing the exam, but it turned out that the three test papers of Chinese, math and English had already been corrected.

The head teacher walked into the classroom with a stack of test papers. The classroom instantly became quiet, and the students stared nervously at the papers in the teacher's hand.

The head teacher cleared his throat and said, "This English test was a little bit difficult, but not particularly difficult. Our class's average English score was at the bottom.

So many students still failed, even though I had already covered most of the knowledge points and collocations on the test. They didn't listen carefully in class and didn't review after class.

The students were like quails after being told this. They didn't dare to look up and remained silent.

"Of course, there were also students who did well. Ruan Fuxi scored 145 in English, ranking first in both class and grade. Lu Youning also scored 140 in English, which was also very good, ranking third in grade."

After the head teacher finished speaking, the classmates looked at Ruan Fuxi and Lu Youning with envy.

Lu Yixiao gave a thumbs up and said, "My deskmate is amazing! I will cling to the top student's thighs from now on."

Lu Youning was in a good mood and responded playfully, "Sure, sure."

The head teacher continued, "There are three students in the whole grade who scored 140 in English this time. The other one is Liu Yufei from Class 1 who scored 143.

Okay, without further ado, students whose names have been called, please come and get your test papers and take a good look at your scores.

"Liang Shuxin scored 72 points,

Fan Liming scored 88 points.

Mo Chunli scored 123 points.

Lu Yuanlang scored 106 points.

Ruan Fuxi scored 145 points, very good, keep it up.

Lu Youning scored 140 points and continued to work hard. "

Lu Youning took the test paper and nodded.

……

When the bell rang, a group of classmates came over to borrow Ruan Fuxi's test paper, and Lu Youning's was not spared either.

Lu Yixiao quickly grabbed Lu Youning's test paper and said, "I borrowed it first. Let me take a look first."

Gu Siyuan replied, "You and Sister Ning are sitting together. You can't watch it at any time. Let me see it first." He reached out to grab it.

Lu Yixiao quickly slapped away Gu Siyuan's outstretched hand and said unconvincedly: "Queue, queue, do you understand?"

Lu Youning quickly stopped the two of them: "Don't tear up my test paper."

"Then I'll buy you a drink, okay? Just let me see first."

Lu Yixiao let go of the test paper and replied, "Okay, after all, I am a beautiful and kind person."

"Ha, ha ha." Gu Siyuan laughed dryly and turned back with the test paper.
