Chen Yu said that Jiang Sui was fine, just like a joke. Jiang Sui suppressed her blush and could only suffer the loss of being dumb.
Jiang Sui wiped her hands on her skirt, as if it still had the stiff feel of a boy’s hair. And his cold and indifferent words “I’m not her dog” made her slightly panicked.
After throwing away those who deserved to be thrown away, she still had to go back to school.
The study progress in the first grade of junior high school was not fast, and there was not much homework. Jiang Sui went to school, and the results of the last monthly exam happened to come down. There were 52 people in her class, and Jiang Sui ranked 21st in the class, with a tepid average score. In fact, it was not that Jiang Sui couldn’t do it. On the contrary, she could do most of it. It was just that she didn’t have enough time and so a small part of the test paper was left blank.
Jiang Shuisheng had no requirements for her grades. His only hope was that his daughter was safe and healthy, so Jiang Sui didn’t attach much importance to her grades.
On the other hand, her deskmate Chen Shujun lay down on the table after seeing the results, looking very sad.
Jiang Sui comforted her: “It doesn’t matter. All the hard work you put in will not be in vain. One day it will reward you in another way.”
Chen Shujun cheered up a little, but she gritted her teeth: “Jiang Sui, do you know who is number one in our grade?”
Jiang Sui said: “Chi Yiming?”
Chen Shujun was unhappy and glanced at Jiang Sui: “Look, if anyone guesses, everyone will guess it’s him. It’s really annoying. When can he not take the first place in the exam?”
Jiang Di in the back row asked curiously: “Chen Shujun, why do you hate him so much? Has he done anything?”
Chen Shujun’s face turned red as a tomato.
Jiang Sui naturally knew about that past, and with a little smile in her eyes, she came to Chen Shujun’s rescue: “She said casually, we were classmates in elementary school as well.”
Jiang Di said “Oh” and accepted this statement.
Chen Shujun lowered her head in shame and breathed a sigh of relief.
Not long after the results of the first grade of junior high school were released, the results of the second grade exam and the mock exam of the third grade of junior high school also came out.
In Class 1 of the third grade of junior high school, Chi Yan took a look at his paper.
The full score outside of Chinese and Mathematics was 120. He had 80 in Chinese, 58 in mathematics, and 56 in English. The rest of the results were similar, a little bit worse.
On his paper, all areas that were not blackened were marked with ticks. The other half was all blacked out.
He covered the paper without paying much attention.
Duan Ling looked at the class results. Her grades were not very good, ranking 35th. When she saw that Chi Yan was ranked 48th in the class, she showed a satisfied and sarcastic smile, and her mood improved a lot.
The only thing that made people angry was Lin Wenwen’s results. Lin Wenwen ranked second in the class.
The most popular girl in the class was probably Lin Wenwen.
Duan Ling gritted her teeth, somewhat unwillingly. However, she suddenly thought that her grades were nothing but a dispensable thing for her, and Duan Tianhai would never let her not go to a good school.
Chi Yan also thought the same way. As long as Duan Ling had books to read and was willing to read, she would be able to read.
Because the books in the Duan family’s reading room were open to him, he would read them when he had time. There were all kinds of miscellaneous books in it, but because Duan Tianhai was a businessman, most of them were business-related.
Among the books in the reading room, Chi Yan usually only read practical books on geography, humanities, science, and business.
If he had free time on the weekends, he also looked into law and psychology.
After the high school entrance examination in June, Duan Tianhai took the time to meet Chi Yan.
Duan Tianhai looked at him critically: “I heard that your grades are not very good.”
Chi Yan said quietly: “Maybe because I was delayed for two years so I couldn’t keep up with the progress.”
Duan Tianhai’s expression became more relaxed and he asked, “Well, you should also work hard and set a good example for Xiao Ling.”
“I understand, Mr. Duan.” However, Chi Yan was slightly disappointed. Duan Tianhai was not a loyal and selfless rough guy like Wen Lei. Duan Tianhai was narrow-minded and hoped that there would be talents under his command, but he was afraid that they would grow too fast and become too amazing.
When the results of the high school entrance examination came out in early July, Duan Ling did very well. Duan Tianhai asked Duan Ling: “You were not satisfied with Chi Yan before. You are about to enter high school. How about daddy changing your schooling company for you?”
Duan Ling hesitated for a moment: “Forget it, just let it go.”
Duan Tianhai asked in surprise: “Why?”
“He is very easy to use,” Duan Ling said. “He is very obedient and quick to do things, but his grades are not very good. Dad, you know, I don’t want my companion studying with me to get better grades than mine.”
Duan Tianhai laughed loudly and agreed to let Chi Yan continue to go to high school with her.
Duan Tianhai was afraid that Duan Ling would be bullied, so he chose a national high school with a good reputation in R city called Ninth Middle School for her.
After this summer vacation, Chi Yan could go to Ninth Middle School to study.
….
Chi Yiming looked at Chi Yan’s high school entrance examination results: “Brother, is this what you meant when you said you did well?” With such a small score, he suspected that his brother did it with his eyes closed.
Chi Yan glanced at the results: “With these scores, you can enter high school.”
Chi Yiming was a little confused: “Does the Duan family treat you badly?”
Chi Yan twitched his lips and said, “Not really.” However, what he actually wanted to say was, was there anyone in this world who would be nice to him?
However, being able to go to high school was a very lucky thing.
This could be considered Chi Yan’s first “summer vacation”. There was no summer vacation homework after the high school entrance examination. He had never had such free days since he was a child.
It was a long time in Plum Alley. A civet cat jumped up on the green tiles and turned its head to look at Chi Yan.
Chi Yan opened his bankbook. From March to July, he worked at Duan’s house and saved four months’ salary. Adding the previous more than 10,000 yuan, he now had a total of more than 30,000 yuan.
The young man’s eyes were dark. This savings was very good for two and a half-year-old and for normal teenagers, but he knew that this was far from enough.
Duan Tianhai was a businessman, so naturally he won’t pay Chi Yan a salary during the summer vacation.
Chi Yan wanted to find something to do. He had read a lot of books, but the only thing he had ever really practiced was repairing bikes. This was not a decent and powerful skill, but it was not useless either.
Chi Yan contacted Dai Youwei.
Dai Youwei was surprised: “You want to come back to repair bikes?”
“It’s not repairing bikes, it’s modifying it.”
Dai Youwei muttered, “I thought you wouldn’t come back to do such dirty work after you went to work for the Duan family.”
“Just doing it during the summer vacation.”
Dai Youwei said: “But who dares to get their bike modified by a young boy! It’s not like they are fools.”
Chi Yan said: “I don’t want money.”
“???” Dai Youwei couldn’t understand, and said after a while, “Okay, I can help you ask, but I’m telling you that you can’t come to me if something happens.”
“Well, I will not come looking for you.”
