If he dared to speak, he could only blame fate. Only the state officials could set fires, but the common people could not light lamps.
Although he was extremely unwilling, he had no choice but to sit with Sophie because of the class teacher's tyrannical power. Edward sat with the well-known honest man in the class, Shi Jianjun. Seeing this intimate duo being torn apart, even though the two brothers were reluctant to part with each other, there was nothing they could do.
He was muddle-headed.
The day of suffering slowly passed as the two brothers sighed. Edward didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Shi Jianjun's unwavering focus in every class. Meanwhile, Leng Liang was also suffering from Su Fei's brainless and ignorant questions. Both of them felt as if they had gone from heaven to hell.
Although they were reluctant to part, they were helpless and could only accept the arrangement of fate. Time slipped away little by little, and in the blink of an eye, it was the mid-semester. During the semester, Edward studied, played basketball, drank, and had fun. With the company of Leng Liang, the semester was very tiring but very fulfilling. However, the later life seemed to have changed the two brothers 'initial views. The more Leng Liang felt that Su Fei was not that hateful. Although sometimes willful, sometimes barbaric, sometimes ignorant. However, this made the seemingly deep and cold see a person's sunshine and vitality. Edward also saw the steadiness and persistence that he didn't have from Shi Jianjun, who was honest. The relationship between the two was getting closer and closer as if they were tightly connected.
In November, Noelle was already covered in snow. The pure white snow covered everything here, but it also covered the impatience and uneasiness here. Noelle seemed to be calmer and lazier in winter, and the temperature lowered the rhythm here. All trades seemed to be slower than ever, and only the students seemed more restless, because they were about to take their midterms.
Noel High School No. 3, first grade, class five.
"Class monitor, come and get your exam number. The mid-term exam will start tomorrow. After school, you will lead everyone to decorate the examination room.”Miejue's sharp gaze swept across the entire class. Although everyone was unwilling, no one dared to complain.
"Got it." The person who heard the voice was a tall, burly, and round-waisted boy. His face was full of acne, and it could be said that he was devastated. He was not old, but he had an old face. He was taciturn and obedient to his class teacher. He also turned a blind eye to his classmates. He did not offend anyone when he was on both sides. He seemed to be loyal, but in fact, he had his own ideas.
"Go back and revise well today. Prepare for the exam tomorrow. This is everyone's first exam in No. 3 High School. You know what class you are in. If you get the last place, no one will be able to look good.”There was no smile on Extinction's face.
When everyone heard this, they were unhappy, but no one dared to flare up. After all, their class was not good. They did not have the confidence to say anything.
"Teacher, why didn't you tell us in advance that there would be an exam? It's going to be tomorrow and everyone only knows about it now.”said Liang Liang righteously.
"You don't have the time, I have no choice. I only received the notice this morning. If you want to argue, go to the political education department. And you, Liang Ziwen, let's see how many places you can get in the entire grade. Don't think that your middle school examination results are something you can show off. Now, no matter how good your high school results are, they have already become history. You are all at the same starting line now.”The homeroom teacher scolded him.
"Forget it. You're not Zhang Wuji. Why bother provoking her extinction?”The chill that was about to flare up was stopped by Sophie.
"Endure the storm for a while." Sophie stared at Liang Liang.
Everyone was helpless, but no one dared to make a sound. Liang Ziwen was the best example. Everyone could only choose to submit.
The revision, the arrangement of the examination hall, the examination, and the grading of the papers had all come to an end in about a week. However, everyone's nervous hearts did not seem to end because of all this. Instead, they became even more uneasy because the results were going to be released today.
"How do you feel?" Shi Jianjun, who had a heavy heart, said a rare word to Edward.
"I'm not confident." Edward said lazily.
"Me too." Shi Jian looked worried.
"No way. You're so serious in class.”Edward looked at him with disdain, implying that this honest child knew how to act tough.
"I'm not afraid of the exam. I'm afraid of the parent-teacher conference after the exam.”Shi Jianjun seemed even more worried.
"Then let your parents come. There's nothing to worry about.”Edward said casually.
Shi Jianjun looked at Edward and didn't answer him. Instead, he lowered his head silently and didn't say a word.
"Why are you silent?" Edward asked curiously when he saw the silent Shi Jianjun.
"Edward, don't talk nonsense." The fat lady at the front table whispered.
"What's wrong?" Edward asked in confusion.
"His father's thing is long gone. There's only him and his mother at home.”Chubby Sis whispered into Edward's ear.
"Ah, I'm sorry. I really didn't know that you…" Edward knew that he was wrong and quickly apologized to Shi Jianjun.
"It doesn't matter. This is the truth.”Shi Jianjun replied indifferently.
Edward did not know what to say in that moment of awkwardness. Everyone was silent for a moment.
"I wonder how you did." Su Fei looked at her and asked with deep affection.
"I don't know, but I must avenge everyone and that old Miejue.”His tone was calm, but Sophie could tell that he was about to do something that would harm others and not himself.
"Don't act recklessly. That Extinction isn't someone to be trifled with.”Sophie said worriedly. This arrogant and despotic young miss was very gentle to Leng Liang. Everyone was puzzled.
"I'm fine. You should worry about yourself. I think you're going to be first.”Leng Liang retorted.
"It doesn't matter. My family forced me to go to school. Otherwise, why would I come to such a place?”
"You're quite open-minded." Facing such a rich girl, Leng Liang had no choice.
"Extinction is here. Stop talking." Seeing the homeroom teacher come in, Sophie immediately raised her guard.
The small classroom was filled with commotion, nervousness, and uneasiness. Everyone was not as lively as before, but quietly waited for the storm to arrive.
"Why isn't anyone talking? Where's your energy?”The homeroom teacher sneered as soon as he arrived.
"Now, the results will be announced.”The homeroom teacher said as she took out her report card.
"Sophie, 60th place." Extinction looked at Sophie, who had come up with the paper, and said unhappily.
Sophie, who had heard the voice, made a face at Leng Liang, indicating that she did not care. Everything was within her expectations. Leng Liang shook her head helplessly and sighed. She did not understand what this young lady was thinking.
"Song Tao is second from the bottom."
"Mi Xiaogang is 58."
It was like the death penalty. The students who got the test papers sighed, and the students who didn't get the test papers also had their hearts racing. They didn't want to be next.
"Edward, 15th place." The homeroom teacher seemed to be unable to suppress the joy in her heart.
His anxious heart finally settled down, but he could not calm down. He did not expect his ranking to be so high. He was the last in the school.
"Did you see that? Edward had the lowest grades in the school, but he was now ranked 15th in the class. High school is an era where you don't believe in intelligence. If you want to do well in the college entrance examination, you have to work hard.”The homeroom teacher said in high spirits.
"Tenth place, Shi Jianjun."
"You did well." Edward asked happily when he saw Shi Jianjun return.
"Not bad, not bad." Shi Jianjun couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, because Edward knew that he had always regarded his studies as a career. For this, he had put in too much effort. He had never played around with life like Liang Liang. To him, he deserved the rewards now.
"The fifth place goes to Dai Mengni." the homeroom teacher said calmly.
The person he had been waiting for had finally appeared. Edward's heart seemed to race when he heard the name Damoni. When he found out that she was in the top five, his blood boiled. What was even rarer was that she had smiled today. The moment she received the paper, she had smiled faintly. Her fair skin, exquisite facial features, and the perfect golden ratio of her face were not beautiful but pleasing to the eye. Such a simple and ordinary face was like the most beautiful painting in Edward's eyes. It had ups and downs, ups and downs, and twists and turns. It was an outline that he would never get tired of seeing for thousands of times. In Edward's heart, she did not seem like a person, but an erratic dream.
"I rarely see her smile." Edward couldn't help but say to Shi Jianjun.
"Then what?" Xiao Shi asked in a flirtatious manner.
"It doesn't look good? You won't understand even if I tell you. You're not even as good as me in terms of relationships." Edward grumbled thoughtfully.
"The second place is Gao Fengliang." the homeroom teacher said.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone exclaimed. This Gao Fengliang was quite awesome. When he entered the school, his ranking was not high.
"Student Gao Fengliang is one of the four students from our two ordinary classes who entered the top 100 in the school. He has brought glory to our class. Everyone, give him some encouragement.”The homeroom teacher said happily, revealing a rare smile.
Edward had been observing the student who went up to get the test paper for a long time. He was very quiet, about 1.87 meters tall, but he sat at the first table. He was quiet and rarely participated in class activities. Her face was enough to make all the boys in the class and even the entire school jealous. He had a well-defined face, exquisite facial features, and a pair of eyes, making him look even more refined. He had the temperament of a prince, but also the melancholy of a poet. He was likable but difficult to approach.
"First place, Liang Ziwen." The homeroom teacher retracted her short smile and said coldly.
" That's great. You're so handsome, Liangliang." There was a commotion in the class. No one believed their ears. But Sophie was very excited and shouted.
Edward was also secretly shocked. What kind of person was Liang Ziwen? Others might not know, but he knew that he had never attended a single class and never handed in his homework. How could he have such high grades? No matter what, he did well and was happy as a brother.
"How could it be him?"
"That's impossible."
"I've never seen him study."
"Congratulations, I'll treat you to dinner after school.”Sophie seemed even more excited than Leng Liang.
"Are you celebrating my scolding?" Leng Liang retorted.
"Why are you being scolded? You still need to be scolded even if you get first place.”Sophie asked, puzzled.
"You'll know in a while." said Leng Liang indifferently.
"Liang Ziwen, are you very powerful? Tell me what your math score was when you entered school.”the homeroom teacher said calmly. When the question was asked, no one knew why, but Liang Liang knew that this was a sign of a storm.
“110.”Liang Liang replied slowly.
