Before the midterm exam, Shi Niange stayed up for many days in a row like everyone else. When the results came in, it was really obvious that she had worked hard.
Her grades as a sophomore in high school were above average, but in her senior year she could understand some of the courses, and worked hard to follow up on extra classes to review. She finally got a pass or above in the midterm exams in each subject, and she earned nearly a hundred more points overall. The teacher is very satisfied with her current results and encourages her to continue to work hard, take advantage of the available time to make up more classes, and complete all the courses for the second and third grade of high school, so that if the ranking can continue to rise in the final exam, the teacher She is definitely not ashamed of her grandfather.
There is no doubt that Qin Siting's performance is still first in the school year. I heard that he has been the first in the school year for a long time. No one can shake this first place. According to Shi Niange's observation of him, he found that although he was in class during class He can listen to lectures, but he is not overly focused like other top academics, nor is he the type who covers his head and concentrates on studying. He seems to be blessed with an absolutely strong ability to absorb all aspects of knowledge. In addition, he also He is very serious, unlike other kids from rich families who just hang out every day. His life is clear, clean and has a precise direction. Gradually, he seems to have become her weather vane every day in school.
"Well, you see, the total score is 185 points worse than yours." Shi Niange unfolded his midterm report card in front of Qin Siting: "When you lent me to copy your notes last month, I said , if I can reach above the passing mark and at least fifty points higher than the predicted score, you can give me your mobile phone number. You see, I have exceeded it by a lot."
Qin Siting did not answer.
Although she made the proposal herself at that time and he didn't say anything or agree, he didn't refuse it either.
Shi Niange had no choice but to compromise: "How about this? During the final exam, if my score is more than thirty points higher than now, can you give me your mobile phone number?"
Qin Siting didn't look at her, as if he didn't hear her.
Shi Niange didn't want to be discouraged, but she still felt a little bit shocked. Obviously he didn't refuse at that time. It was just a mobile phone number, and she wouldn't bother him...
After the exam, it happens to be a rare two-day weekend. The time in school is too tight recently, and I can only have half a day off on Sunday. It is rare to have two days of vacation.
Zhao Xiaoqing recited songs and went shopping during the appointment. She was wearing a beautiful floral skirt and walked with her arm in her arms: "Didn't you do very well in the exam this time? The teacher said that you, a grade-skipping student, ranked in the top 300 of the school year. You have thrown away all the cranes in our class, why are you still so wilted? Who messed with you?"
Shi Niange forced a smile: "No, probably because of my current situation, I can only be able to get off the back of the crane, but the hundreds of people in front of me still need me to continue to look up to me. It's really too hard to catch up. It’s difficult, but when I think about it, I think what adults usually say when chatting and complaining makes sense.”
"What words?"
"Students are the most tired. When you grow up, you are tired only because of endless responsibilities and life burdens. But when you are a student, you are tired from the combination of mental and physical strength. There are endless homework, endless exercises, catching up and surpassing. Endless achievements.”
"Tsk, I said you haven't always been outgoing, why are you suddenly depressed?" Zhao Xiaoqing smiled: "Have you fallen out of love again?"
The so-called lovelorn that Zhao Xiaoqing said was already the norm for Shi Niange. For example, one day Qin Siting ignored her, or she said something and Qin Siting ignored her, or Qin Siting went to a meeting with student cadres and was not in the class. In class, these can all be collectively referred to as Shi Niange’s lovelorn stage.
"Almost." Shi Niange sighed.
Zhao Xiaoqing couldn't help laughing: "I think you should change your goals. There are many boys in our class who like you."
Shi Niange didn't say anything, she just lowered her head and looked at her phone. The class monitor had just sent her a registration form that was due on Monday. It was a temporary vacancy in the cram school, so she could fill it in. She picked up her phone and Start filling out the form.
In fact, Nian Ge's views and actions on many things were frank, but when it came to this small and obscure love for Qin Siting, she found that she was actually quite timid.
After filling out the form, the monitor asked her where she was. She said she was shopping with Zhao Xiaoqing outside. The monitor asked if a man could come over and help them carry their bags. Shi Niange smiled helplessly and replied "no". The monitor was very pleased. Sorry, I wish her a happy shopping and spend less money, and the text message chat is over.
I walked around the streets for a few hours and didn't buy anything. After all, I usually wear school uniforms for a longer time. There is no shortage of daily clothes, and there is really nothing to buy.
Seeing that Shi Niange had been listless, Zhao Xiaoqing invited her to a dessert shop to eat a chocolate donut, and then the two of them went home.
During this rare two-day holiday after the midterm exam, Shi Niange was really in a bad mood. After shopping for a day, he went home and stayed in seclusion at home. He occasionally called his grandfather to report on his studies. Grades, and occasionally look at some study materials suitable for her that her grandpa sent to her. When she has nothing to do, she looks at the human skeleton in the study, observing the position and composition of each bone, and counting the numbers one by one. I didn't feel sleepy when I came down, but it felt like there was something pressing down on me, and the image of Qin Siting's indifference after seeing her results always flashed in my mind.
She should only blame herself for not working hard enough, and she dared to show off in front of him even though her grades were below average. She was already doing very well without getting ridiculed by him. What kind of encouragement could she expect? He didn't owe her anything, and it was true. There is no need to encourage her.
On Sunday night, Shi Niange packed up all the study materials and books. He had to go back to school tomorrow. After taking a shower, he lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and thought about Qin Siting.
She raised her hand and tapped her head.
She should probably find time to help out in her grandfather's lab for a few more days to distract herself.
Then she thought about her transcript that she hadn't shown to her parents yet. After her parents returned to China a while ago, they didn't live at home for more than half a month before returning to the United States. It was daytime in the United States, so she got up and took pictures of the test paper with her mobile phone. I took a photo and sent it to my parents.
A few minutes later, she went to warm up a glass of milk for herself and came back to drink it. She heard a text message from her cell phone on the bed in the bedroom, thinking it was a message from her parents after seeing the report card.
She drank the milk first without paying much attention. After a long time, she went back to bed and lifted the quilt to lie down. Then she picked up her phone and took a casual look.
In the next moment, Nian Ge's facial expression fell into an unprecedented emptiness and confusion. He even forgot to breathe. After coming back to his senses, he took a deep breath and stared at the unfamiliar numbers on the screen of his mobile phone. And the text message sent, I saw only three words "deserted" on it -
Qin Siting.
