207th place?
Emmmmm
Alas!
Looking at the names on the report card, Lin Yu felt extremely complicated.
If it had been in the past, he would have been overjoyed to get such a ranking.
But since he set his lofty goal of catching up with Tang Manman, this score was really not good enough.
It was even an eyesore!
Tang Manman was among the top in the whole school...
Hey?
No.
What was her ranking in the last exam?
Was it in the fifties?
In this way, he wasn't without hope...
Thinking of this, Lin Yu felt even more conflicted.
Deep down in his heart, Lin Yu naturally hoped that Tang Manman could get a high score.
He hoped that she could change her fate against all odds so that her future life could cross class boundaries and she wouldn't have to work as hard as she did now.
But uncontrollably, there was an evil voice deep in Lin Yu's heart. No matter how hard you stamped it to death, crushed it into slag, and ground it into ashes, it could still emit that tiny, fragile voice.
If Tang Manman's grades could drop a little, would he be able to get closer to her?
Cutting that soul and that dirty thought together and throwing them into the trash can, Lin Yu finally felt a lot more comfortable.
Liking someone was of course selfish.
But when selfishness took up the majority in a relationship, became uncontrollable, and even became harmful to the other person, then you didn't deserve to like her!
After the long - winded nagging of the head teacher, it was finally time to leave school.
Lin Yu folded the report card and put it in his pocket. Looking at a bunch of idle guys in the class, Lin Yu really found it boring.
Damn it.
Getting the final exam report card was supposed to be a very interesting thing.
After knowing that his own grades were ideal, watching the expressions of some classmates who didn't do well in the exam, whether they were gloomy, sad, forcing a smile, or couldn't help crying, that would be so exciting!
Was there anything more fun in the world?
What?
Two old ladies fighting on the roadside?
Well.
This was indeed a bit more attractive.
Looking at these guys in the class who didn't take the exam results seriously, Lin Yu sighed and shook his head, then left feeling extremely bored.
Just as he left the corridor, Lin Yu saw Gu Yue also in the corridor.
She looked very happy, and it was obvious at a glance that she had done well in the exam.
"How did you do in the exam?"
"About how much bonus can you get?"
Lin Yu walked over and asked with a smile.
Gu Yue held up her report card and said happily:
"I'm 644th. Although I didn't make it into the top 500, it's still pretty good!"
"I can probably get a bonus of two thousand yuan!"
"Not bad, not bad."
Lin Yu gave her a thumbs - up and said approvingly.
"How did you do, Brother Long?"
Gu Yue, following the unwritten rule "After you ask my grades, I must also ask about yours", asked.
"Not bad."
"I'm 207th. I didn't make it into the top 200."
Lin Yu shrugged, looking like a good student who was actually quite satisfied with his score but still pretended to look like he didn't do well.
Just like others, Gu Yue showed a surprised expression. Her pink lips slightly parted, and she said enviously:
"Is this just 'not bad'?"
"If I could get this score, my mom would put me on the offering table!"
"Hehe, it's okay."
Lin Yu held back his laughter and waved his hand, then took the elevator downstairs with Gu Yue.
While going downstairs, Lin Yu took out his phone and checked the messages. He found that Tang Manman hadn't sent him a message.
Did she still not do well in the exam?
Frowning, Lin Yu couldn't help but start to have wild thoughts.
If she did well in this exam, she should have shared the news with him first and asked for a reward, right?
She hadn't made a sound until now. Could it be that she did very poorly?
Or maybe she actually did okay, but she had other things to do and didn't have time to tell him?
While Lin Yu was having these wild thoughts, the elevator reached the first floor and the elevator door slowly opened.
Lin Yu subconsciously looked up outside to avoid bumping into the people in front when walking. Before he could step out of the elevator, he saw Tang Manman outside the elevator.
She was standing not far from the elevator, on the periphery of the crowd, less than five meters from the elevator door. She looked like she was eagerly waiting for someone.
Was the person she was waiting for him?
Before this question could fully form in his mind, Lin Yu saw the expectation in Tang Manman's eyes quickly turn into surprise.
She looked very happy, but also seemed a bit reserved.
She excitedly stood on tiptoe, but because of shyness, she didn't raise her hands very high. She just slightly raised her hands to about the height of her chin and quickly waved to him to say hello.
Smiling gently, Lin Yu walked towards Tang Manman and asked:
"How did you do in this exam?"
Tang Manman was all smiles. Instead of answering Lin Yu, she took off the schoolbag on her shoulder. Without much rummaging, she took out the report card and happily showed it to Lin Yu, saying:
"Look!"
Looking at the grades on the report card, the smile on Lin Yu's face quickly disappeared.
"Hey."
"You..."
Lin Yu looked at Tang Manman and then at the ranking on the report card. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
If it weren't for Tang Manman's recent performance that didn't seem fake, Lin Yu would have suspected that he was being tricked!
Fourth in the whole school!
Had you ever gotten such a high ranking before?!
Looking at Tang Manman, who looked like a dog that had completed a task, came to its owner's feet, raised its face, and wagged its tail waiting for a reward, Lin Yu smacked his lips and still couldn't help asking what was on his mind:
"Have you ever gotten such a high ranking before?"
Tang Manman thought for a moment and then nodded, saying:
"Yes, I have.
"Once in a monthly exam, that was the best score I've ever gotten. It was also fourth in the whole school!"
"Okay."
Lin Yu nodded and said:
"Come with me.
"I'll exchange vouchers for you."
"Vouchers?"
Tang Manman blinked her eyes, and there was a glint of curiosity in her beautiful peach - blossom eyes.
"You'll know later."
Lin Yu kept her in suspense first. Just as he was about to take a step, he suddenly seemed to remember something and looked back, saying:
"I'm leaving first. Bye."
"Oh, okay."
"Bye."
Gu Yue showed her two rows of teeth and waved goodbye with a bright smile.
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
