What happened in the morning was just an episode. The only thing that hurt Cheng Ran was his shirt, which Xu Lan bought for him last year. It didn’t fit him well when he bought it. In fact, it was a little too big.
In the past, Xu Lan always bought him clothes in a size larger because he had grown taller. The more she could save, the better. When times were tough at home, she had to be more thrifty. This year, the clothes were a little smaller and Cheng Ran felt very comfortable wearing them, so she sighed at the time, feeling a little depressed about having to spend money so early in the morning.
Since I enrolled in the school, I have heard a lot of interesting stories about No. 10 Middle School from Zhang Ping and others. The head teacher Sun Hui is privately called "Sun Monkey". Not only is his surname Sun, but it is also said that he has the experience of slamming the table and making a scene in the principal's office. He also occasionally makes shocking remarks in class. In short, he does not play by the rules. No matter if there are arrogant students, students with strong family backgrounds, or students who are forgetful and heartless in the class, they can all be subdued by him.
I also heard about the so-called great people. Some of them were in clubs, some were well-known for their bands or sports competitions, and more often they were the ones who picked up girls during the day, played games at night, and still had good grades. At this time, Cheng Ran asked Zhang Ping, who always thought he was a poor student, about his grades. Last year, his final score in the second half of the second year of high school was 875 points, out of 1050 points, ranking 400th out of 600 students in the grade. Cheng Ran estimated that with this score, any class in Shanhai No. 1 Middle School could rank in the top 15.
This student, who would be at the top of the key schools in other provinces, is now a "bad student" with no ambition at all in No. 10 Middle School. The fact that there are so many top students in No. 10 Middle School can give us a glimpse of the situation.
Cheng Ran suddenly thought of a question. He had never asked Jiang Hongshao about her grades, so what was her current level in No. 10 Middle School? Cheng Ran thought about it and asked about it.
Zhang Ping thought about it and said seriously, "Top five in the grade... often number one."
Cheng Ran smacked his lips and became speechless.
So it is not so easy for Lao Jiang to be so successful in a school like this. Simply being good-looking and talented is only one factor. It turns out that excellent academic performance is the foundation of success.
Well... what Lao Jiang said about "study hard" still makes sense.
Cheng Ran suddenly felt a little guilty. If Lao Jiang's grades dropped because of his presence, would it be his fault
This made Cheng Ran a little cautious. He would occasionally poke her with words after class, "No. 1 in the grade!"
Lao Jiang was a little shy at this time, his eyebrows drooped, "It depends on the state."
The group of girls who usually surround her would criticize her, "You're so sour..."
"I don't agree, let's have a competition..."
"Tsk... Are you trying to strike up a conversation? You're so ordinary..."
These girls, led by Wei Shu, were not targeting Cheng Ran, but any boy who wanted to get close to Jiang Hongshao. Especially when he made a mistake during the enrollment and went directly to Wei Shu's seat, Wei Shu came back and heard everyone talking about it, and became particularly wary of Cheng Ran. Cheng Ran was also pointed at in the class for a while, because most of the classmates who liked Jiang Hongshao were half-hidden, and he seemed to be the most obvious.
In the eyes of many people, they may be the natural targets of gossip.
Unlike the time when Shanhai tried hard to fit in with the people around him and make himself appear ordinary, Lao Jiang didn't seem to deliberately suppress his grades in No. 10 Middle School. This was due to two different atmospheres. There were many people who could get high scores here, and some of them were outstanding in one subject but mediocre in another. Some could even get the first place in the school in a single subject, but their scores in other subjects were dragged down. Students with biased scores often made teachers sigh with regret, so Jiang Hongshao could rank at the top because of balance.
In terms of individual subject scores, there are many people who can surpass her. But if you consider that she has no weaknesses, she is outstanding, and she is often able to dominate any subject when she is in good shape. This is also the reason why she is on the list of some competitions.
Because Jiang Hongshao was sitting a few rows behind and to his left, Cheng Ran could only see her by turning his head to the left.
Sometimes when he was in a bad mood, he would suddenly glance to the side and back while walking.
The unexpected result was that Jiang Hongshao kept staring at the blackboard, without looking away, as if she had never looked in his direction.
Cheng Ran was a little bit skeptical. After several times, the result was the same. He felt a little childish and shook his head. In fact, his soul was already old, but he was still so cynical. He should not disturb Lao Jiang's normal track...
As a result, when he was not looking, Sun Hui tapped the blackboard and said, "The number axis root marking method, commonly known as the needle threading method, means that odd numbers pass but even numbers do not, because chickens have feet and can pass, but lotus roots do not have feet and cannot pass!" This remark caused the whole class to laugh. Jiang Hongshao took this opportunity to turn her head to the familiar figure on the right... The corners of her lips slightly raised.
…
When walking from the playground to the well-shaped building during the afternoon physical education class, he saw a group of students in front of him arguing. Then, at the other end of the banyan tree forest and flower bed at the bottom of the stairs, Cheng Ran saw the girl named Qin Qian walking down the stairs to the playground with her classmates.
She was very slim, which attracted comments from the boys, "Qin Qian has a great figure!", "Guo Yi is so lucky!"
"Bullshit, didn't you hear that Guo Yi complained that he was only allowed to hold hands... That's so frustrating!"
Seeing Cheng Ran was a little puzzled, Zhang Ping raised his eyebrows and said, "That girl's name is Qin Qian. She danced the peacock solo at the art performance last year and the whole audience was amazed... She has won gold medals in city and provincial dance competitions. When she performed at the provincial theater, it was broadcast on Chengdu TV... Unfortunately, she is already taken. Last year, Guo Yi started to pursue her madly, and then the two of them became friends. Guo Yi is also quite famous. Last year, No. 10 Middle School held a simulated entrepreneurship event, and this guy came out and opened a milk tea shop on campus. The milk tea shop 'Jingshuixuan' in the cafeteria now was created by them. It is said that they earn several thousand yuan a month, and they are very rich!"
Cheng Ran was stunned, "There is also an entrepreneurial simulation..." No. 10 Middle School is indeed No. 10 Middle School. The clubs and various activities are flourishing. These may not be surprising in a university. But this is just a high school... The key is that the high school is set up like a university, but the enrollment rate is still the highest in the province. This is the foundation.
"You are ignorant, aren't you..." Zhang Ping smiled, "But I forgive you. It's rare in your previous school, so you are a bit strange..." At the end, he said mysteriously, "But I heard that she and her boyfriend have had conflicts recently... Hey, those who learn to dance are all arrogant... The two of them might break up! I don't know how many animals are waiting to take advantage of the situation!"
Cheng Ran said "Oh" and his eyes followed Qin Qian's figure as she went to the playground.
Zhang Ping patted him on the shoulder, "Hey! Let's go, what are you still looking at! Jiang Hongshao, Qin Qian, I noticed that you can't move your legs when you see the most beautiful women! You have high standards."
Only then did Cheng Ran retract his gaze, smiled, and said nothing.
He had just been looking at Qin Qian's waist, where the light blue shirt was tied, rising and falling with her body...
Then, something unexpected happened suddenly two days later.
During the second break this Thursday, our physics teacher, Lai Sinian, kept the class for a few minutes. The progress in the second year of high school was very fast. In just over a week after the start of the school year, physics had already been moved directly to simple logic circuits. The teacher was even more crazy and kept the class after every class. The homework was also extremely difficult, which made the whole class complain. Some people even cursed in private.
Lai Sinian walked out first, paused at the door, and seemed to say to someone, "Why are you here?" and then left.
The boys in front quickly rushed out to get some fresh air, but just as they left, someone came back and said to the classroom in an unbelievable tone, "Cheng Ran, someone's looking for you!"
A few more outgoing boys also stepped back, their voices filled with cheering "Yeah~".
Jiang Hongshao was stunned. Strictly speaking, Cheng Ran probably didn't know anyone else in school. Wei Shu and other girls turned around and were a little surprised to hear the name of Cheng Ran, a transfer student who had been unknown for more than a week.
Hao Di in the front row turned around and pushed the book in front of Cheng Ran. "What's the matter? Who's looking for you?"
When Cheng Ran stood up without knowing why, he saw a head poking in from the classroom door, revealing Qin Qian's face.
Zhang Ping, who was standing next to Cheng Ran, was stunned at that moment.
She was holding a bag in her hand, and when she saw Cheng Ran, her face flushed amid the booing from the people around her.
It was not until Cheng Ran came in front of her that she handed him the pocket. There was an EL logo on the outside of the pocket, and there was a sun-kissed scent coming out of it. Qin Qian looked at him brightly without blinking, "I washed your shirt at home... I'm giving it back to you, thank you."
When Cheng Ran took it, Qin Qian left quickly.
Cheng Ran turned around with his bag in his hand, and the whole classroom was filled with the sounds of people screaming, whistling, pounding tables and stamping their feet.
At this time, Cheng Ran looked in the direction of Lao Jiang.
Jiang Hongshao was right there, her eyes staring at him. The water in Taohuatan was a thousand feet deep.
Quietly.
And unfathomable.
I will not publish a chapter until I am satisfied with it.
