"Now I will announce the results of this week's physics test. Although the questions were difficult, there was still one student who scored full marks. That student is our class monitor, Lin Youxi, who scored 85 points."
"Mei Fang's grades are also very good, with 84 points. Don't be careless, you will definitely not be worse than Lin Youxi."
…
The physics teacher read out all the scores, but did not read out one person's name.
"In addition, I want to severely criticize Xia Yuan. Your performance in this exam has declined significantly. I don't know what you usually study, but you are the only one in the class who failed. Stand outside."
Xia Yuan stood up tremblingly. The eyes of people around her were cast on her fiercely. Self-blame and shame filled her heart.
Her childhood sweethearts Lin Youxi and Mei Fang sat beside her, their eyes also filled with disappointment.
She could even see Lin Youxi whispering in Mei Fang's ear and complaining in a disdainful tone:
"Mei Fang, let's not play with Yuanyuan anymore. She can't keep up with us."
"Indeed, after studying physics for so long, she can only get such a score. It's a pity that I spent so much time with her."
call…
Xia Yuan woke up from her dream and a tear rolled down from the corner of her eye.
She covered her face and lay silent on the bed for a long time, and then got up at her mother's urging.
In the morning, Mei Fang was waiting for Xia Yuan at the door of her house pushing a cart as usual. As soon as Xia Yuan saw Mei Fang, she stopped the cart aside, threw herself into Mei Fang's arms, and didn't say a word.
"What's wrong? Why do you need my Alfonso super energy so early in the morning? Did you have a nightmare again last night?"
Xia Yuan nodded aggrievedly, "You still understand me the best. I dreamed that I failed the physics test in the gifted class. Youxi told you not to play with a loser like me in the future, and you agreed."
"I have random thoughts all day long."
Mei Fang gently pinched Xia Yuan's cheek, "Don't you want to think about the relationship between the three of us? To put it another way, even if one day I despise you, we have Xi Ke who will stand by you unwaveringly, okay? Think about it, you two have been together since kindergarten-"
"Okay, you dare to dislike me!"
Xia Yuan angrily waved his fist towards Mei Fang's chest.
"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts... Let me give you an example, just an example. That kind of thing will definitely not happen."
"You are not allowed to give such examples."
"I know, I know. I was wrong."
Mei Fang gently stroked Xia Yuan's head, "You're about to take the science lab exam, it's normal for you to be stressed, I think you need to relieve some stress, I'll go shopping with you this weekend, buy some delicious food and fun things, or come to my house to play games and watch movies, we haven't watched Ascension 3 yet, let's ask You Xi to come along."
Xia Yuan shook her head. "I'm so nervous right now. I wish I could squeeze out an extra hour to finish a physics test. I don't have that much time to do other things. Of course, except for this—"
As Xia Yuan spoke, he hugged Mei Fang again and held him tightly. Some overly intimate actions made Mei Fang feel physically uncomfortable.
"Yuanyuan, well, how should I put it? I've grown up and become a big boy now. Do you understand what I mean?"
"I know, so what?"
Xia Yuan leaned on Mei Fang's shoulder, rubbing against Mei Fang's cheek with a lazy smile, "Anyway, we are childhood sweethearts. Even if you become a big boy, you are still my big boy. There is nothing to be embarrassed about..."
This damn girl plays with fire every day...
Fortunately, I, Mei Fang, have been a gentleman in both my previous lives. I only do what a middle school student of this age should do, okay...
Mei Fang and Xia Yuan were riding their bicycles when they met Lin Youxi, who had been waiting for a long time, at the intersection. Mei Fang, who was nosy, greeted Lin Youxi and told her what had just happened.
"You know, Youxi, Yuanyuan had a dream last night. She dreamed of—"
Mei Fang was halfway through her words when Xia Yuan covered her mouth from behind.
"You talk too much! You stinky Ah Fang!"
"So, what's going on?"
"Nothing... just a nightmare."
Xia Yuan then urged the two of them, "We left too late. If we don't leave now, we'll be late. We have a monthly exam today, so we have to prepare and review quickly."
Lin Youxi was surprised by Xia Yuan's behavior because there was something she had forgotten to do.
"No... Hug me for a bit?"
Xia Yuan finally reacted after being reminded, and then moved closer to Lin Youxi.
"I forgot to ask Youxi for super energy, hehe."
Xia Yuan stuck out her tongue and apologized, "This is my daily ritual, and I actually forgot to do it. I'm really going too far!"
Xia Yuan pouted and glared at Mei Fang in annoyance, then rode forward on his bike.
The three of them parked their bikes neatly on one side of the bicycle parking lot and chatted about some daily events. When they parted, Xia Yuan told Lin Youxi that he would not have lunch with her at noon.
"I'm going to review my books in the classroom, so I won't go downstairs."
"Then I'll bring you food—"
Before Lin Youxi finished speaking, Xia Yuan smiled and waved his hand:
"No, no, Xiaoxue can bring it for me, Youxi, you and Yue Xinyi can eat together."
"Yeah... okay."
Xia Yuan patted Lin Youxi on the shoulder and said, "Then I'll see you later. We'll be taking the exam in the same classroom."
"Hmm... That's right."
Lin Youxi followed Mei Fang into the classroom. On the way, she turned back and said to Mei Fang:
"Yuanyuan is acting weird today."
"Hmm... Indeed..." Mei Fang thought for a moment, "It's probably because of the nightmare I had last night."
"Do you know what nightmare she had last night?"
Mei Fang nodded, but when he thought of how reluctant Xia Yuan was just now, he also seemed very embarrassed.
"Yuanyuan doesn't want to tell me, I won't force you to tell me."
Lin Youxi smiled slightly and patted Mei Fang's arm gently, "You should prepare well for today's monthly exam."
"Uh-huh."
The Experimental Middle School holds monthly exams every month. However, unlike the midterm and final exams which cover all subjects, the monthly exams only test four subjects: Chinese, mathematics, English, and physics. The review pressure will be relatively smaller, but the monthly exam results will still lower the ranking.
As soon as Mei Fang took her seat, Yue Xinyi started putting pressure on everyone.
"Have you heard? Have you heard? The physics test for this monthly exam was written by Mr. Ke from Class 13!"
"… "
Guo Yun's face darkened when she heard Lao Ke's name. "Is it Lao Ke, the one who gave the physics test in the December exam last year?"
"Yes! You still remember that crazy physics teacher."
Guo Yun nodded. "I used to be in Class 1. No one in our class passed the physics test. The physics teacher scolded us for the whole class."
“Pfft… I feel like laughing, but then I remember that I failed that exam too.”
Yue Xinyi showed a Buddhist expression that seemed to want to cry but could not. "I'm afraid I have to face this exam calmly. There is no other way. I'll just take the scolding. Life is about growing up through being scolded. Anyway, the Chinese teacher will praise me back for the scolding."
Yue Xinyi saw that Mei Fang was very interested in their topic and wanted to intervene, so she waved her hand to urge Mei Fang to go away. "Physics masters like you and Youxi simply don't understand the pain of us physics weaklings."
Mei Fang complained with interest, "I found that people who are good at Chinese don't seem to be good at physics."
"Not entirely! I see Xia Yuan often gets first place in the grade in Chinese exams. Isn't physics pretty good too?"
"Yuanyuan's performance was not very stable. It was OK if the questions were simple, but if the questions were a bit difficult, she would not do well on the test."
Listening to Mei Fang's detailed description, Yue Xinyi's expression gradually twisted: "Tsk tsk... Just because we are having a good time now, you don't know how to restrain yourself when showing off your childhood sweetheart?"
Yue Xinyi stared at Mei Fang with disdain, "You said Xia Yuan didn't do well in the physics test, but that's just compared to you guys. I remember she passed the physics test last year. But the one that makes me most angry is you and Youxi. One of you scored 78 and the other 82. You're simply making life miserable. It's a pity that Xia Yuan got to play with you guys for so long!"
"That's because you don't understand our Yuanyuan family."
Mei Fang smiled and shook her head. "If Youxi and I let her not take the exam well, or helped her cheat, she would be very angry. This is a matter of principle for her, and no one can appease her."
"Don't come to your house anymore. You keep saying such disgusting things every day. Mei Fang, aren't you disgusting?"
"Okay... stop arguing."
Guo Yun was trying to stop the fight awkwardly, "I've gotten used to it..."
Mei Fang raised his eyebrows when he heard this. "Then do you have any objection to calling my Youxi?"
After nearly two years of getting along, Yue Xinyi had already revealed her identity as a Xi Party member. When Mei Fang said this, she immediately became excited, "Well, that's about right! Shout more, shout more, I want to eat sugar!"
What a double standard bitch...
Cao Manjun's warm reminder: The high C part of the junior high school chapter, which is also the only knife (qi shi tang) in the book, will unfold in this chapter. After this chapter, the whole process can be reasonably sweet and there is no need for a turn-based system. If you are afraid, you can wait a little, because I can't finish coding one chapter all at once.
