At 7:30 in the morning, buses drove into the No. 2 Middle School campus.
This year's college entrance examination was divided into several examination halls as usual, and No. 2 Middle School was one of them, but many people had to go to other examination halls.
Before leaving, Su Zelin stretched out his hand and said simply: "Guys, do your best!"
Qin Shiqing folded her hands and said, "I hope everyone gets admitted to their ideal university!"
Tang Yan’s third one: “Perform beyond your expectations and your dreams will come true!”
Lu Haoran stretched out his hand, but then retracted it. The honest man felt a little embarrassed.
"Lu Haoran, you are so timid, are you still a man?"
Tang Yan glared at him, grabbed the honest man's hand and placed it on her wrist.
I, I actually touched a girl's hand!
Lu Haoran was so excited that he wanted to cry.
He gave Tang Yan another first time.
“All the best!”
Lu Haoran also expressed his blessings.
The four hands were tightly clasped together, like the deep friendship between several young people.
Several people arrived at the school gate.
Tang Yan and Lu Haoran were assigned to the same examination room, their destination being No. 5 Middle School, while Su Zelin and Qin Shiqing went to No. 1 Middle School.
Before parting, Su Zelin said, "Haozi, Xiaoyanzi is now in your hands. You must take good care of her!"
"I will."
Lu Haoran nodded seriously.
Tang Yan glared: "Do I still need your care? I'm almost the same as taking care of you!"
"Yes, yes, I'm sorry."
Lu Haoran nodded in agreement.
"In that case, Xiaoyanzi, I'll leave Haozi to you. Oh, he's shy, so he might not be able to adapt to the new environment if he goes to another school for an exam."
Su Zelin said with a half-smile.
"It's okay, I'll take him to the examination room first!"
Tang Yan patted Xiong Da with great righteousness.
"Xiaoyanzi, I, I'm fine, no need to trouble you!"
Lu Haoran waved his hands quickly.
"Don't talk nonsense, I have the final say, get in the car!"
Tang Yan didn't say anything and pulled Lu Haoran towards a bus heading to No. 5 Middle School.
Qin Shiqing couldn't help but smile.
It would be fun if Xiaoyanzi and Lu Haoran became a couple.
Although Xiaoyanzi is a bit strong, she is a perfect match for the honest Lu Haoran.
Moreover, Su Zelin seemed to want to bring them together.
"Zelin, let's go too!"
Qin Shiqing also held Su Zelin's hand and walked towards the bus to No. 1 Middle School.
The jade hand was warm and soft, which made Su Zelin's heart flutter.
Well, after the college entrance examination, such a situation will no longer exist. Let’s just treat it as the last time!
Out of childhood friendship!
After getting in the car and finding a double seat, Su Zelin asked Qin Shiqing to sit by the window because she was prone to motion sickness.
The two hands finally let go quietly, and both of them felt a little embarrassed.
Qin Shiqing looked at the scenery outside the window, while Su Zelin pretended to check the admission ticket and stationery.
The bus was soon full of people and slowly drove out of the campus.
There are still very few private cars on the road in this era, and there is no risk of traffic jams even in urban areas.
A quarter of an hour later, the bus arrived at its destination.
Although they both took the exam at No. 1 Middle School, their exam rooms were located in different teaching buildings.
They arrived at a fork in the road side by side, and Qin Shiqing stopped.
She said softly, "Zelin, you must try your best to do well in the exam!"
"Of course I will. It's better to take care of yourself than to bother telling others about it!"
Su Zelin responded impatiently, then wandered away.
At this moment, Qin Shiqing suddenly remembered the evening when she met the gangster on the playground and he said a few words to her.
"I can't help it. We've been walking together for so long, but you're a good student and walk fast. It's a miracle for someone like me to follow you for so long. I'm bound to lose you sooner or later."
It was quite infuriating at the time.
But now I am no longer angry.
The girl's eyes were like water.
"Zelin, it's okay. If you don't walk fast, I'll walk slower too, and you won't lose me!"
…
At 8:55 in the morning, the Chinese invigilator handed out the test papers.
There are still five minutes left before the answer sheet is due. During this period, candidates can review the questions so that they can start writing immediately when the exam officially begins without wasting time.
Qin Shiqing read through it carefully from beginning to end, and when she saw the last composition topic, her pupils suddenly contracted.
It is indeed a composition on the theme of flood prevention and disaster relief!
…
After the 150-minute Chinese language exam was over, the two took the bus back to No. 2 Middle School.
When I entered the classroom, I found that Tang Yan and Lu Haoran had returned.
They were all discussing the exams that had just passed with excited expressions.
When Lu Haoran saw Su Zelin, he shouted, "Zelin, you guessed the essay topic correctly, that's amazing!"
"Master Su, you are back, please take a seat!"
At this moment, Xiaoyanzi's pious attitude was as if she had seen a god, and she was just about to go up and kneel down to lick him.
She was really convinced this time!
As expected, he is the one who won the second prize in the lottery according to his grandfather’s dream. This premonition is so accurate!
Fortunately, with the attitude of "it is better to believe it than not to believe it", she read several related flood control and disaster relief model essays. When she started writing, inspiration came to her like a god. Tang Yan felt that she had performed quite well and should get a high score for her composition.
When she saw the composition topic while reviewing the questions, she became very excited, her confidence increased greatly, and she was in great shape. If nothing unexpected happened, her Chinese class results would be higher than usual.
"With the essay as a foundation, Xiaoyanzi and I both think we did well on the test. What about you?"
Lu Haoran asked with a smile.
"It's OK!"
Qin Shiqing smiled slightly.
She is quite modest. Normally, no matter how well she performs, she would always say it is “okay”. Besides, Qin Shiqing’s cold has recovered, and there are no other factors affecting her. She must be very stable, so Tang Yan and Lu Haoran are not worried.
Everyone's eyes turned to Su Zelin.
"That's all!"
Su Zelin stretched his shoulders.
He is also very relaxed.
It’s not that he did well in the exam, but that he didn’t take the college entrance examination seriously.
"It seems that everyone has got a good start. This is a good start!"
Xiaoyanzi made a summary, and then she looked at Su Zelin with anticipation.
"Dad, please help me guess the math problem from this afternoon!"
…
Three days later, the college entrance examination was over.
In the classroom of Class 2, Grade 12, No. 2 Middle School, some are happy while others are sad.
Those who performed well are naturally happy, while those who performed poorly are sad.
No matter what, twelve years of hard study finally came to an end.
Although you still have to go to college, according to seniors who went home for the holidays, life in the ivory tower is quite easy. Sometimes you only need to attend classes half a day, and the teachers don’t care if you take any leave or skip classes. You can go in and out of school at any time, play in the Internet cafe all night, and even have a relationship.
In short, it is full of beautiful things, described as if it were a paradise on earth, making people yearn for it.
The heavy burden on my shoulders was lifted and I felt relaxed.
Every member of Su Zelin's small circle of four is in a good mood.
Driven by the good start in the Chinese subject, everyone was in great shape and performed well in the following subjects, and everyone was happy in the end.
Tang Yan and the other two were chatting excitedly, but Su Zelin did not respond. He just looked at Qin Shiqing quietly.
He felt complicated.
There is no reason for Qin Shiqing to fail again in this college entrance examination, and she may even perform better than usual.
This also means that Peking University and Tsinghua University are already waving to her from afar.
It's time to say goodbye!
After going to college, she and I were no longer in the same city, and the emotional entanglement of our previous life would never happen again in this life.
While feeling relieved, Su Zelin also felt a little bitter in his heart.
"Su Zelin, why don't you say anything? Didn't you do well in the exam?"
Xiaoyanzi soon discovered his abnormality.
"No, I'm just thinking about which college to apply for."
Su Zelin made up an excuse to get away with it.
"Why think so much? Just estimate your scores first. Besides, no matter what, you can at least get into a second-tier university. It will be difficult to get higher!"
Xiaoyanzi has an accurate judgment of Su Zelin's strength.
Two books are more than enough, one book is not enough.
"Yes, Zelin, you don't have to worry too much. I guessed the essay topic correctly, and your English is so good, you will definitely get into a second-tier university!"
Lu Haoran also comforted him, saying that his friend was just worried about failing the exam.
After the college entrance examination, there is one very important thing to do while leaving school, and that is to estimate the scores. And you have to estimate the scores as early as possible. If you do it too late, you may forget the answering process.
Many candidates will write their answers on a draft paper, but not everyone has enough time for all subjects, so some can only estimate the scores based on memory.
After the estimated scores for several subjects were completed, Tang Yan and Lu Haoran were both very satisfied, the scores were quite ideal.
Su Zelin was also within the acceptable range. His performance in mathematics, physics and chemistry was a little lagging after his rebirth, but he made up for it after a month of targeted cram school.
The Chinese score should even be higher than the last college entrance examination score. As for English, it goes without saying that it is not full marks but close to full marks. It depends on whether the teacher will deduct points in the writing section. At least Su Zelin is still very confident.
In this way, the overall grades will be improved and should be similar to what they were before the rebirth, so there will be no problem in applying to the second-tier university I used to attend.
What surprised everyone was Qin Shiqing.
"Shiqing, your score estimate is too low. Didn't you say your performance was OK?"
Tang Yan looked at Qin Shiqing's total estimated score and frowned.
This estimated score cannot be said to be poor, but it has not reached the ideal level either.
"Yes, Qin Shiqing, are your estimates for the subjective questions too conservative?"
Although there are standard answers for reference, some people's score estimates cannot be 100% accurate. After all, there are subjective questions. Candidates may feel good about themselves, but the teachers who mark the papers may not think so.
Some candidates were even overly optimistic and overestimated their actual scores by several tens of points, which led to failure in the exam or admission to an undesirable major.
Therefore, teachers' opinions tend to be slightly conservative, but not too conservative.
"It's better to be conservative. There was a senior who could have gotten into a good 985 university, but he estimated his scores too optimistically and applied to Peking University or Tsinghua University. In the end, he had to come back to repeat his studies!"
Qin Shiqing explained calmly: "Besides, my performance this time was just barely passable, not particularly good."
"Qin Shiqing, are you stupid? I guessed all the essay questions correctly for you, how could you not do well in the exam?"
Su Zelin's defense was broken in an instant.
Not only the composition questions, but also the exercises he usually asked Qin Shiqing for advice were the types that would appear in the college entrance examination.
Logically, Qin Shiqing was destined to be admitted to Peking University or Tsinghua University, but she ended up getting this poor score.
Although not as bad as her previous life, it was still not ideal.
With this score, you actually have a good chance of getting into Peking University or Tsinghua University, but it’s not a sure thing, at least it’s not a sure thing to get into a good major.
He put a lot of thought into it and did so many things, but he didn't want anything to go wrong in the end.
"Su Zelin, why are you so excited? It makes it seem like Shi Qing doesn't want to take the exam."
Tang Yan glared at Su Zelin fiercely, and she felt very sorry for her deskmate: "Besides, Shi Qing came before the exam, and her cold may not have fully recovered, so her condition will be affected to some extent!"
"After all, it's just an estimate. Qin Shiqing might have estimated it too conservatively, but Ze Lin is also very concerned!"
Lu Haoran tried to smooth things over.
Su Zelin stopped talking. His emotions had indeed gone a bit too far just now.
"Shiqing, do you think you should apply to Tsinghua University or Peking University?"
Tang Yan asked cautiously.
"Based on this estimated score, there is a high probability that you will be admitted, and you may have underestimated it."
Everyone's eyes fell on Qin Shiqing.
"I need to think about it and consult with my teacher and parents. I'll make a decision later."
Qin Shiqing said calmly.
"Shiqing is right. You have to be careful when applying for college. Teachers may have more experience, and your parents' advice is also important."
Lu Haoran agreed.
He also had to take back his estimated scores and application form and discuss them carefully with his parents.
"Well, it seems that this is the only way!"
Tang Yan nodded slightly.
Qin Shiqing glanced at Su Zelin and said, "My admission to Tsinghua University and Peking University is unstable, and someone seems to have a lot of opinions about it."
"Of course not. You are letting me down. I, Su Banxian, worked so hard to figure out the essay topic! Besides, I was thinking about how to show off to my friends that the guy next door to me got into Peking University or Tsinghua University. I will have a lot of face too!"
Su Zelin was confident.
"Tsk, you're still trying to save face, you're talking as if you passed the exam yourself!"
Tang Yan curled her lips and disagreed.
"Zerlin cares about Shiqing, so he naturally hopes that Shiqing can go to the best college!"
The honest man tried to smooth things over again.
"No, no, no, you're wrong. The most important thing is that there is a bonus for getting into Peking University or Tsinghua University, and it's quite a lot. Considering the essay topic I foresaw, it's not too much to give half of the bonus, right?"
Su Zelin looks like a money-grubber.
"Isn't it normal for friends to help each other? Besides, you just happened to guess it right. You even want to share half of Shi Qing's prize money, Su Zelin, how dare you say such a thing!"
Xiaoyanzi was so angry that she laughed.
This bastard is still as thick-skinned as ever!
