Back to high school, Peking University is beckoning me

After finishing the math exam in the afternoon and walking out of the exam room, I hardly saw any students smiling.

Everyone seemed to have lost their energy and spirit, their steps became heavy, and sighs followed one after another.

After Lu Youning and Lu Yixiao met, they smiled bitterly at each other.

The corners of Lu Yixiao's eyes flushed slightly, and she forced a smile and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm fine, I'll be fine after crying for a while."

Lu Youning hurried forward and hugged her, comforting her softly:

"It's the same for everyone. I haven't finished it yet. I guess everyone else in the grade finds it difficult, except for a few math-savvy students like Ruan Fuxi and Zuo Baiyang. Let's not be sad."

Lu Yixiao wiped her eyes a little embarrassedly and whispered, "I guess I'm going to fail math this time."

Lu Youning patted her back gently and said softly, "Don't think that way. The results haven't come out yet. Maybe the results aren't as bad as we thought."

Lu Yixiao sniffed and nodded slightly.

A sound of "Wow~" attracted the attention of all the students around. Lu Youning and Lu Yixiao looked towards the source of the sound curiously.

I saw several girls comforting a female classmate who was crying.

"What the hell is this test paper? Especially the last few questions. I didn't even understand the questions, and I just wrote a word 'jie' (explanation). Woo woo woo."

"It's okay, we are all the same, don't cry yet."

"Yeah, I'm not sure about many questions either."

"Don't worry about it now that you've passed the exam. You still have exams for the next two days."

"Yeah, let's finish the rest of the exam first. Look, so many people are looking at you."

Lu Youning and Lu Yixiao looked at each other, their eyes revealing deep sympathy.

Lu Yixiao said softly, "It seems that everyone thinks this exam is very difficult."

Lu Youning sighed, "That's right, this test is not meant for people."

The crying girl over there calmed down a little after being comforted by her classmates, but she was still sobbing.

The classmates around them also began to discuss the exam. "I feel like I'm going to fail this time. I just guessed a lot of the questions."

"Me too. There wasn't enough time. I didn't even have time to look carefully at the questions at the end."

Lu Youning pulled Lu Yixiao's hand and said, "Let's go. We shouldn't just stand here anymore. The more I hear people talking, the more unsure I feel."

Lu Yixiao nodded and asked, "What are we going to do now?"

Lu Youning: "Let's go back to the dormitory. I don't have an appetite now."

Lu Yixiao nodded in agreement, and then the two of them went straight back to the dormitory.

……

After three days of exams, many students cried that night.

This really kept the teachers busy. They were either busy comforting the students or providing psychological counseling to help them relieve their emotions.

Especially the teachers of key classes are the busiest. After all, as students in key classes, most of the students are a little proud.

Their grades are their source of pride, and they are regarded as good students and top students in the eyes of their teachers and classmates.

However, this joint exam dealt them a crushing blow, and their pride was gone in an instant. It was hard to accept for a while.

Lu Yixiao came back from outside and pulled Lu Youning aside and said, "I heard that physics in the science department is also very difficult. Many girls cried."

Lu Youning had also heard about it and nodded, saying, "I've heard about it too. I guess this has dealt a heavy blow to everyone." Then he continued to do his math problems with his head down.

She was also deeply shocked this time. After the exam, she started practicing questions, striving to become proficient through practice. Maybe she would get the hang of it while practicing.

Lu Yixiao continued, "We're better in the arts, and we can answer most of the questions. It's just that politics is a bit more difficult, and we have to consider current events."

Lu Youning bit the end of her pen and replied, "Well, I should read more international news when I get home this weekend. It won't hurt to learn more."

Lu Yixiao looked at Lu Youning who was so focused, and felt a surge of admiration in her heart.

She sat down in her seat and said softly, "Ningning, you really work hard. I want to learn from you."

Lu Youning looked up at her and smiled slightly: "Let's work hard together. Let's try to do better next time."

When Lu Youning woke up the next morning, he felt groggy and cold.

She thought to herself, "It's over, I guess I have a fever." It's so early now, the infirmary doesn't open until seven or eight.

So she had to wash her face and brush her teeth before going to the classroom to read.

After arriving at the classroom, she found that many of her classmates were already reading. She thought that the joint entrance examination might have dealt a heavy blow to them, and now they were starting to work hard.

She went to get a cup of warm water and came back, slowly chewing the tasteless steamed bun while reading the analysis of the classical Chinese text.

I didn’t want to eat more steamed buns after just two bites, so I drank a few more sips of water to relieve my dry mouth.

Lu Youning endured the discomfort and tried to concentrate on the book. However, the dizziness in her head became more and more intense, and the words on the book seemed to jump before her eyes.

In desperation, she finally lay down on the table and took a nap for a while.

It was almost half past six when Lu Yixiao arrived at the classroom and saw Lu Youning lying down and sleeping. She felt very strange. It couldn't be that he was sleeping in the classroom instead of in the dormitory.

"Ningning, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Lu Yixiao asked softly.

Lu Youning heard Lu Yixiao's voice in a daze, raised her head with great effort, and said in a hoarse voice: "Xiaoxiao, I feel a little uncomfortable, and I have a slight fever."

When Lu Yixiao heard this, she immediately became nervous. She reached out and touched Lu Youning's forehead, and it was indeed very hot.

"You have a high fever. Why don't you go to the infirmary?" Lu Yixiao said anxiously.

Lu Youning said helplessly, "The infirmary hasn't opened yet. I wanted to read a book in the classroom first, but I didn't expect it to get worse and worse."

Lu Youning said weakly, "I'll lie down for a while. Let me know when the teacher comes."

"Okay, I guess the infirmary will be opening soon, just hold on a little longer."

Because many students had emotional breakdowns yesterday, Luo Mingdian came early today to inspect the class.

He came in from the back door of the classroom and saw Lu Youning sleeping on the table. He frowned slightly, walked over to Lu Youning and asked, "Lu Youning, what's wrong with you?"

When Lu Yixiao saw the teacher coming, she quickly said, "She has a fever, and the infirmary is not open yet."

Luo Mingdian frowned and said, "I'll call and ask. The doctor should be arriving at the school soon." After that, he turned around and went outside the classroom to make a phone call.

A minute later, Luo Mingdian came back and said to Lu Yixiao, "The doctor has arrived at the school. Now take Lu Youning to the infirmary."

Lu Yixiao nodded quickly and patted Lu Youning gently: "Youning, get up quickly, let's go to the infirmary now."

When they arrived at the infirmary, the doctor was already there. He carefully examined Lu Youning, took her temperature, and after confirming that she had a high fever, he immediately gave her an IV.

Lu Youning was lying on the bed receiving an IV drip. She said to Lu Yixiao, "Xiaoxiao, I'm fine now. Go back to the classroom."

Lu Yixiao asked worriedly, "Can you do it alone?"

Lu Youning smiled slightly and said, "It's okay. The fever went away after the infusion. I'll just lie down in bed and take a nap. I'll be fine when I wake up."

"Okay, then I'll come see you after morning reading." After saying that, he left reluctantly.
