After two days of rest, it's finally time to go to school.

Upon returning this time, Jiang Xiaoqi was promoted to Class A in a spectacular fashion.

Unlike last year when he was promoted to Class B, this time he was the only one promoted.

Yun Muze and Lin Xiao, these two cousins, are still a bit lacking in experience, and they failed to advance to the next class this time.

Watching Jiang Xiaoqi pack her things and leave, the two felt a pang of sadness and sorrow.

For some reason, I always had a feeling that Jiang Mingfei would go further and further away until I could no longer see his back.

“Cousin, Mingfei won’t be coming here anymore. If we want to find him, we’ll have to go through the garden to another courtyard.”

"You didn't find out he was promoted to a higher grade just today. You knew when the results came out before the New Year." Yun Muze said helplessly. His cousin had never been so reluctant to part with anyone.

"I should have spent more time with Mingfei before; a year is such a short time." He vaguely remembered how Mingfei had comforted him back then.

Later, I was able to get so much useful information from my uncle thanks to the "patience" technique that Mingfei taught me—playing dumb to outsmart others, which I've now mastered.

"Alright, let's work hard and try to get promoted to Class A next year," Yun Muze comforted him, but he also knew that by the time they got to Class A, Ming Fei would probably already be preparing for the county exam.

If one step is slow, the next step will be slow. They just need to control their own pace. Everyone has their own path to walk. They can't make others stop and wait, so they can only try their best to keep running.

After listening to his cousin's words, Lin Xiao secretly resolved that even if he couldn't catch up, he shouldn't fall too far behind.

Yun Muze, perhaps having grown a year older after the New Year, has shed his usual unreliability and not only inspired his younger cousin but is also starting to think about the future.

Ding Fuzi had been looking forward to Jiang Xiaoqi's arrival in Class A for a long time, but the other students in Class A didn't seem particularly happy to welcome their new classmate.

This classmate was seven or eight years younger than them, yet his knowledge was no less than theirs.

Back when Jiang Xiaoqi was in Class B, the students in Class A had already heard the legends about the prodigy in Class B.

They had initially planned to have Tan Hao, the new transfer student in Class A, challenge Jiang Mingfei to a match, but Tan Hao completely ignored them.

This has kept them curious about which of the two child prodigies with photographic memories is better.

Both of them are now in Class A, which is a good opportunity for them. Even if they don't compete, their abilities will be revealed on the day of the monthly exam.

The monthly exam rankings won't be faked. We'll see who comes out on top, the prodigy or the genius. They're all waiting to see what happens.

Song Jinyang's face was gloomy, and he didn't turn the pages of the book in his hand for a long time. He had the utmost contempt for these so-called child prodigies.

He worked no less hard than anyone else, and what he hated most was being inferior to others in terms of talent. He had nothing, so he resented those who were born intelligent and rich.

Qiu Feng glanced at Song Jinyang with disdain, his expression relaxed, seemingly unconcerned about his new classmate.

He hadn't visited his aunt for a long time, and the two only met outside the school.

His aunt's words made him realize that he had been fooled. Those brother and sister were truly birds of a feather, and it was a pity that they had such good poetic talent.

After being disciplined by Miss Qian several times, Song Qingyu thought Qiu Feng would come to her rescue, but instead, she was met with a warning from her own brother, Song Jinyang.

As Jiang Xiaoqi entered the school, he felt several gazes focused on him, some curious, some scrutinizing, and some hostile.

But he didn't care. Instead, he found an empty seat near the front and started organizing the things he needed for class.

When Master Ding came in, he saw that Jiang Xiaoqi had already found a seat and sat down, so he didn't say anything.

In the first class, Jiang Xiaoqi was not specifically called upon to answer questions, and the class passed by peacefully.

Jiang Xiaoqi was sitting diagonally opposite Qiu Feng. Looking at the person whose legs were not touching the ground and whose calves were dangling, Qiu Feng couldn't help but laugh for the first time.

He did laugh, and quickly covered the lower half of his face with a book.

With the blessing of the Marrow Cleansing Pill, Jiang Xiaoqi's five senses were heightened, and she naturally knew that someone was snickering. However, she didn't care, since laughing wouldn't hurt her.

Tan Hao and Zhao Hongxuan were among the people he was more familiar with in Class A, and the two of them came over as soon as get out of class ended.

"I really didn't expect you to actually make it to Class A. You're amazing!" Zhao Hongxuan was genuinely impressed.

"Young Master Jiang is exceptionally talented, so it's only natural that he's in Class A. You can tell from the time we studied together before; he not only has a photographic memory, but his comprehension is also extraordinary."

Tan Hao still remembers the scene of the two of them reciting together last year. Whenever he thinks about it, he feels deeply that there are always people more capable than him and mountains beyond mountains.

After exchanging pleasantries, the two left for the dining hall.

Jiang Xiaoqi also packed her things and prepared to leave.

At this moment, Qiu Feng suddenly stood up: "Jiang Mingfei, wait a moment."

Jiang Xiaoqi stopped and looked at him in confusion. Qiu Feng walked up to Jiang Xiaoqi and bowed slightly: "Are you five years old this year?"

Jiang Xiaoqi thought the person in front of her looked familiar, and suddenly remembered that he was the male protagonist of the previous incident at the girls' school. Why was he looking for her?

"Yes, what can I do for you?" This is such an old melon, surely you're here to settle scores later?

"I've heard you have a photographic memory. I wonder who's better, you or Tan Hao?"

The students from Class A who hadn't left yet also perked up their ears and tried to slow down their packing.

"Is this really that important? Will who is more capable or less capable affect Brother Qiu's studies or his imperial examinations?"

"You know me?! But that's not important. Just tell me who's stronger."

"If I had to ask, Brother Qiu, you're the better one," Jiang Xiaoqi said with a sly glint in his eyes.

"Me? I don't have a photographic memory, so what's so great about me?"

Jiang Xiaoqi chuckled, "Of course, I'm better at gossip."

After saying that, without giving Qiu Feng time to react, he quickly grabbed his things and left the school.

By the time Qiu Feng realized what was happening, the person had already vanished.

"I've never seen such an interesting little guy before. He's much more interesting than those poor, bookish nerds!"

Jiang: Do you think you're some kind of ancient version of a domineering CEO?

Song Jinyang stepped out of the school with disdain. He had once wanted to befriend Qiu Feng, and was even willing to betray his own sister.

Who would have thought this person would be so ungrateful, now actually going so far as to fawn over a brat who dared to criticize him? Humph, what a load of rubbish!

"Young Master, the food has been brought back." Qiu Feng's page placed the food box on the table.

"Okay, starting tomorrow, don't come to deliver anymore. Tell your aunt that I'll eat at the cafeteria."

"Yes, Master."

When Qiu Feng wants to get close to someone, he will try every means to do so. For example, when he went to discuss poetry with Song Qingyu, he did not care about the proper separation between men and women.

Now that Jiang Mingfei is a man, it's easier for him to get close to him. They attend classes together every day and eat together, so they'll definitely become familiar with each other quickly.

Jiang Xiaoqi was eating his rice, unaware that someone was eager to befriend him.

He was the youngest in Class A, followed by eight-year-old Tan Hao and nine-year-old Zhao Hongxuan. The three of them were in Class A, and two of them could be considered child prodigies.

The students in Class A are now eagerly anticipating the monthly exam. They used to dislike this day the most, but now they actually look forward to it. This is probably the attraction of gossip and watching a good show.
