"Youxi, you are now the monitor. Congratulations!"
On the way home from school, after learning that Lin Youxi had become the class monitor, Xia Yuan held Lin Youxi's hand and held her tightly.
"I don't dare to do it alone." Lin Youxi smiled embarrassedly, "It was Ah Fang who took me to choose, and he also served as the team leader."
"Eh... is that so?"
Xia Yuan looked at Mei Fang with curiosity, "I didn't expect you to do such a thing. When you were in elementary school with me, didn't you always find it troublesome and didn't want to be a class leader? Why did you change after you went to junior high school with Youxi? Huh?"
"Well... this situation is quite special."
"What's the special method?"
"that is… "
Mei Fang knew that Xia Yuan hated hiding secrets between good friends, so he did not hide anything here.
"So it was to put me in the same group with Youxi... I understand, I understand!"
Xia Yuan muttered, "Since we are in the same group, why don't we sit at the same table? What a great opportunity."
"It's not good either. Sitting with Ah Fang, I can't help but want to talk to him during class."
"Hahahaha, that's true!"
Xia Yuan strongly agreed with this, "Thinking back to when Ah Fang and I sat at the same table..."
Mei Fang looked at Xia Yuan as she recounted her past memories with a forced smile, and her voice sounded a little haggard.
He knew that she was troubled by some hidden emotions, so he tried to talk about other topics.
"I heard your class was making quite a lot of noise tonight. Did you reshuffle the seats and elect new class leaders? Are you still the Chinese class representative?"
Unexpectedly, Mei Fang's topic hit the nail on the head. Xia Yuan lowered his head with a wronged look on his face, "I'm a transfer student, I'm not eligible to run for class leader..."
This girl...
It seems that he has not yet come out of the shadow of using connections to get things done through the back door.
"Why do you keep thinking about that?"
Mei Fang patted Xia Yuan on the head and said, "How can you be so unhappy all the time?"
"Um… "
"You are the best Yuanyuan in our hearts... Don't always be bothered by the past."
Lin Youxi encouraged Xia Yuan from the side, "As long as you study hard and get good grades, people will naturally stop gossiping about you. I think the people in your class don't know that you are... that person who came in, right?"
"My student number is the last one in the class, how could I not know..."
Xia Yuan lowered his head and muttered a few words, then began to look for other topics, "By the way, the last math test was so difficult. I didn't even get 100 out of 120. There were a lot of us who got above 100. How did you two get?"
Lin Youxi and Mei Fang were at a loss for words, so Mei Fang suggested, "School is over now, so let's not talk about studying for now."
"Don't be embarrassed to say it, tell the truth, I'm not afraid of being hit!"
Lin Youxi and Mei Fang looked at each other, and finally Mei Fang reported the score to Xia Yuan.
After hearing the score, Xia Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then tried hard to laugh.
"Wow, you guys are really amazing, you are worthy of being my childhood sweethearts! I am so happy for you, sincerely."
She took Mei Fang and Lin Youxi's hands, one on each side, and they swayed and rocked their hands gently.
But Mei Fang and Lin Youxi both felt a lot of pressure.
Xia Yuan’s future did not exist in the original world. Her image in elementary school had always been flawless.
However, as time went on, her academic performance began to fall behind Lin Youxi and Mei Fang, and she was even showing a trend of falling behind significantly.
I studied so hard...
Is it because I can’t find the direction for my studies, or is there some other reason
Mei Fang now knows that Xia Yuan is very sad, but she really doesn’t know how to comfort her, so she just stays with her.
When they were doing homework together in the evening, Xia Yuan didn't behave unusually, and he would still actively ask Mei Fang if he had any questions.
Mei Fang also patiently and carefully explained the problem to Xia Yuan step by step, fearing that she would have even the slightest confusion about the solution to the problem.
The two of them studied together until after ten o'clock in the evening, until Xia Yuan's father Xia Xun knocked on the door to remind them.
"Mei Fang, your mother called and asked you to go home. It's so late today, so why don't you stop studying for now?"
"Uncle Xia, wait a moment. I'll go back after I help Yuanyuan finish this question."
"It's okay. It's so late. Ah Fang, you should go back first... I'll think about it carefully."
Xia Yuan sniffed and stared at the homework book in front of her quietly. "You explained this question so many times but I still don't understand. It's my own fault that I'm stupid, not yours."
Her voice became fragmented as she spoke. Mei Fang thought that if she left now, Yuanyuan would be sad all night, so she looked up and said to Xia Xun, "Uncle Xia, I'd better go back later. Mom called and let them rest first."
"Well... thank you for your hard work."
Xia Xun had been watching his daughter study so hard but never getting any reward, and he felt so distressed.
In fact, he had already talked to his daughter about this before. It didn't matter if her grades were a little worse. As long as she had a clear conscience, that was enough.
Anyway, their family is rich, so it doesn't matter if she can't get into a good university. They can send her to study abroad and gild her when she comes back. Isn't it better to return from overseas than to work hard as a local
But Yuanyuan told him that she didn't want to distance herself from her best friends Lin Youxi and Mei Fang.
Xia Xun couldn't bear to destroy the beautiful friendship that his daughter cherished, so he naturally didn't insist and continued to follow his daughter's wishes.
"Then you guys continue studying, I won't disturb you..."
Xia Xun gently closed the door and let Xia Yuan and Mei Fang continue studying.
This time it only took them ten minutes to understand the question, and Xia Yuan's brows finally relaxed a little.
"It turns out that combining like terms is such a simple thing. My brain is really crazy! Hahahaha."
In Mei Fang's opinion, there is not much difference in difficulty between the mathematics questions in the first year of junior high school and those in elementary school, but the knowledge points have become broader, and the previous rote memorization and practice of questions will lead to a situation where one is not able to cope with the requirements.
"Nowadays, the main subjects in junior high school are Chinese, math and English. Your problem is just that you are a little bit bad at math. Chinese and English are not bad! Especially English. I saw that you scored more than 110 points in the last test. You learned English when you were young. Many people have no foundation at all. When the next final exam comes, your ranking will not be bad, believe me."
"I'm not just a little bit behind in math, and I have to take a physics test in the eighth grade... I can't understand these science subjects, so I will definitely not be able to catch up with you..."
"Don't put so much pressure on yourself, you hear me?"
Mei Fang gently pinched Xia Yuan's cheek, "Seeing you like this, Youxi and I really feel sorry for you. Where is our Yuanyuan who always loves to smile now?"
"Um… "
Xia Yuan twisted his nose, stared at Mei Fang with a puffed face for a while before letting out angrily, "Since you said so, I will stick close to you and absorb Ah Fang's energy."
"Sure... come on."
Mei Fang smiled and said, "But hurry up, it won't be good if your dad sees it."
"Know."
Probably since the incident of running away from home, Xia Yuan and Mei Fang had developed an independent set of intimate behaviors to calm their sad and upset feelings - Xia Yuan would put his hands on Mei Fang's shoulders and press his forehead against Mei Fang's chest.
Generally speaking, this kind of patch is very effective and can help Xia Yuan calm down quickly.
But today seems to be an exception.
Xia Yuan pressed his hand against Mei Fang's chest and suddenly began to sob silently.
Mei Fang heard the voice and quickly helped Xia Yuan up. She rubbed her eyes and her voice was full of grievance: "I think... today I need a stronger Afang energy to get better."
"Stronger?"
With tears in her eyes, Xia Yuan looked at the puzzled Mei Fang with her big watery eyes.
"Can I... give you a hug?"
"I want to hug you."
Xia Yuan said this and suddenly shook his head.
"No, um..."
"That's what I should say."
"I want you to hug me, okay?"
I updated early today!
