Ch356: School Has Started!
Lin: “Little Sister, where do you live?”
Little Sister...
When Ye Li saw this form of address, her hands trembled. She then looked at the other party’s profile picture. It was a photo. She was wearing professional attire and had a solemn smile. She did not look like the kind-looking person she saw at the airport, but looked more like the person on television.
Ye Li was even more certain that this person was indeed Lin Jing.
No one would believe that Lin Jing addressed her as Sister, right?
However, Ye Li replied politely: “We live in Ming Jia Garden.”
She did not ask where the other party was staying. After all, the place where the leader stayed was confidential! How could it be leaked to an ordinary person like her?
Xue Sheng was still nagging. “Lili, you’re still too naive. If you take the initiative to add people on WeChat, others will definitely not reject you, but ignoring you is another story.”
Ye Li was no longer as stunned as before. She raised her chin and said proudly, “Sorry, she took the initiative to add me. Moreover, she has already sent me a message! She’s very good at talking to me!”
Xue Sheng: “How can that be? Why would she try to get close to you for no reason? What benefits do you have to give? Other than our daughter, our family doesn’t have any other treasures, right?”
Ye Li reprimanded him. “Look at you, you’re a businessman. You always talk about benefits. Can’t we just be people chatting at the airport? I’ll stop talking to you. I’m going to prepare lunch for my daughter! She and Xiao Xiang haven’t eaten yet!”
Xue Sheng: “Let Xiao Fang go with you tomorrow. You don’t have to cook. But you haven’t answered my question!”
Ye Li: “?”
“Who will you save first when my daughter and I fall into the water?”
“…”
“You’re not allowed to hang up if you don’t answer.”
“…”
Why is this person getting more and more unreasonable as he gets older?! Seriously, even my daughter makes him jealous!
The corners of Ye Li’s lips twitched as she said, “I’ll save you, I’ll save you!”
Her daughter knew how to swim! She did not need to save her! Of course, if her daughter did not know how to swim, she would definitely kick Xue Sheng away and quickly save her daughter.
Oh, she forgot that she did not know how to swim.
…
In the 400-square-meter flat, there were seven rooms. Other than the servant’s room, there were four master bedrooms.
Xue Sheng and Ye Li shared one room, and Xue Xi left the other bedroom with the morning sun to her maternal grandparents. The elders needed sunlight more.
Xue Xi chose a bedroom opposite Ye Li’s. The interior was well-decorated.
The room was more than 30 square meters. Other than the bed, there was also a rocking chair on the balcony. The desk was in a corner and occupied a large area.
The books that Xue Xi had sent back were all on it.
Xue Xi first went to look at her books. They were all arranged according to her habits in Bin City. When she saw these details, Xue Xi’s heart warmed.
Ye Li was really meticulous.
If her daughter had not been lost since she was young, she would definitely have been a good mother.
Looking at this room again, Xue Xi knew that Ye Li must have known that she would choose this one long ago. The renovation style was as simple as she liked and was no longer the red and green princess room.
She did not have much luggage. She casually opened the luggage and tidied her clothes. After Xue Xi was done washing them, Ye Li’s lunch was ready.
When she and Xiang Huai walked out, they saw three dishes and a soup on the table.
Ye Li picked up a piece of Seething Fish for Xue Xi. “I know that you guys must have eaten Western food overseas. I think you guys like to eat something with strong flavors. Eat it!”
Xue Xi was really craving Chinese food. After staying overseas for a week, what she wanted to eat the most was hotpot and spicy soup...
She and Xiang Huai started eating.
Ye Li was not hungry. She casually ate a few mouthfuls and put down her chopsticks. She then said to the two of them, “Lin Jing sent me a message of her own accord just now. She sounded very close to me. Your father even felt that she had a motive. Actually, I know what’s going on with her.”
Her words made Xiang Huai pause in his eating and look up slightly.
His mother-in-law knew?
However, if she knew, she would not be so calm.
Just as he was deep in thought, Ye Li said, “She must be doing it to learn from Xiao Xiang on her son’s behalf. She wants to see what she can do to help her son marry her daughter-in-law.”
Xiang Huai: “!!”
Ye Li continued, “From her tone at the airport, it seems that her son is a little arrogant. However, if my mother was Lin Jing, I would definitely be arrogant as well! But now, he’s become too much of a pushover. It’s quite pitiful that he hasn’t been able to catch the girl he likes.”
Ye Li said, “No matter how high her status is and how rich her family is, look, she’s willing to give up her face for her children! Yes, so I’ve decided to give her a few ideas. If her son was like Xiao Xiang, what kind of wife can’t he get?!”
Xiang Huai: “…”
So, Mom Xiang, what did you say about me to my mother-in-law?!
After dinner, Xiang Huai bade them goodbye.
After all, after being gone for a week, he had many things to do in the country.
Meanwhile, Xue Xi returned to her bedroom and impatiently picked up the English books she had bought and started reading.
She fell into a trance.
It was already the end of July. In the following month, Xue Sheng moved his company to the capital and was busy with company matters. He often returned home late at night.
Ye Li started chatting with her friends online.
Soon, it was the beginning of September and Xue Xi started school!
As her home was not far from Huaxia University, Ye Li did not pack much for Xue Xi. Anyway, she could come back once a week.
After settling all the admission procedures, Xue Xi carried her luggage and stepped into her university dormitory for the first time.
This dormitory housed four people in one room. She went there late, and the other three had already arrived. Coincidentally, Xie Yingying was in the same dormitory as her.
Xie Yingying came out of the dormitory to fetch her. When she saw her, she could not help but complain, “There’s a rich second-generation heir living in our dormitory. She keeps flaunting her wealth. I’m really speechless.”
Xue Xi did not speak and the two entered the dormitory.
Just as she entered and was about to do something, she heard a haughty voice. “Wait! Don’t touch my luggage. This is LV, 66,000 yuan for one! You can’t afford to compensate it if you break it!”
Xie Yingying: “?”
She did not speak, but she glanced at Xue Xi.
Xue Xi ignored this person. After all, they were not familiar with each other. The two of them turned to the side and entered past the person’s luggage. Xue Xi first went to the washroom to wash her hands and saw that the person who had just spoken was currently doing skincare here.
Her bottles filled the entire sink.
Xue Xi frowned and wanted to move to make space for herself to wash her hands.
However, before she could touch the skincare products, the arrogant-looking girl suddenly said, “Aiya, don’t be rash. My facial cream costs 5,000 yuan per bottle. It’s very expensive!”
Xue Xi: “?”
At this moment, Xie Yingying had already taken out a skincare bag from Xue Xi’s bag and passed it to her. “Sister Xi, do you need it to wash your hands?”
The rich second-generation heir shot her a glance and smiled. “Hey, what brand of skincare are you using?”
Ch357: You Are Specialists
Xue Xi ignored her and opened her makeup bag to take out the hand-washing solution.
The rich second-generation heir took a glance and frowned. “Why isn’t there a label on your thing?”
Xue Xi also looked at the simple packaging of skincare products in her hands.
Actually, what Ye Li had prepared for her were all not bad. The brands were all the ones that Flame Number Five had bought from Country M’s airport.
Oh, that’s similar to the brand the rich second-generation heir uses.
However, that day, she felt that Xiang Huai’s skin was good and casually asked him what skincare products he used. Immediately, Xiang Huai had brought her a set.
This set of skincare products was all packed in white porcelain bottles. There were no brands, and there was only a label on it. The handprint marked which was the lotion and which was the facial cream.
Since Xiang Huai had given it to her, she decided to use it.
It had been a month and there were no problems.
Xue Xi squeezed out some soap and washed up. She did not speak, but the rich second-generation heir continued, “No, fellow students. You can’t use things without a brand, especially when they’re applied on your face. We girls have to be careful. Why don’t you use mine?”
She passed her skincare products over.
Xue Xi: “?”
She then took a look at this person and felt that she did not seem to be that annoying?
This person was somewhat tall and slender. Her long hair that draped over her shoulders was wavy and her looks were above average. Although her straightforward personality was similar to Qin Shuang’s, the chatterbox was not as superficial as her.
Xue Xi took another look at her student card. On it was written: Applied Mathematics Department, Li Zixia.
Xue Xi retracted her gaze. She had already washed her hands and turned to walk back to the dormitory, leaving behind two cold words. “No need.”
Seeing how cold she was, Li Zixia followed behind her. She opened her luggage and started unpacking her things on her bed.
Huaxia University’s dormitory environment was definitely the best.
The four of them were in the same dormitory. The beds were on the top bunk while the bottom was composed of a desk and a wardrobe. Hence, there was no conflict between who slept on the top and the bottom.
It also gave every student an independent space.
When Xue Xi was living in the orphanage, she was already used to doing daily chores. Hence, making her bed was a piece of cake for her.
She casually got out of bed and tidied her clothes.
She only brought a few summer items and placed them in her cabinet. She then placed the books on the table and tidied them.
Seeing that she was so efficient, Li Zixia instantly had a misunderstanding: This student’s family background must not be too good.
The skincare products she used were small brands, and there was not even a label. Even the clothes she’d brought were just these few pieces... Looking at the empty cabinet...
One had to know that when Li Zixia came, she had carried three huge boxes of things, and the cabinet could not contain them all.
…
After Xue Xi had unpacked her things, Xie Yingying invited her to walk around the school.
Xue Xi did not reject her. After all, she would have to live here for four years from now on. It was necessary for her to familiarize herself with the environment. When the two of them went out to shop, the sky was already dark.
Ye Li sent her a message asking how she was doing at school.
Xue Xi replied: “Very good.”
Ye Li wanted to send her to school today but was rejected by her. She felt that there was no need for her parents to send her over. When Xiang Huai made this request, he was also rejected.
However, when she arrived at the school, she realized that most of the students were sent over by their parents.
At this moment, there were still parents who had not left the school and were accompanying the children for a stroll and to take photos.
Huaxia University had a long history and had a beautiful environment. The entire school was huge and covered an area of 5,000 square meters. Some of the buildings had historical features and made the students feel anticipation when they walked in.
The learning environment became even richer.
Moreover, Huaxia University’s canteen was not bad. The food was cheap.
After Xue Xi and Xie Yingying had dinner, they returned to the dormitory and coincidentally heard Li Zixia say to another student, “It’s alright. You can use mine first. You’re from the south. If you don’t put on some skincare products after washing your face, you’ll definitely feel dry!”
The other student was called Liu Zhao. She was a little shy and nodded. “Okay, I’ll go buy skincare products tomorrow.”
“It’s fine. Just be careful. After all, my lotion costs 4,000 yuan. It’s very expensive.”
Xue Xi and Xie Yingying exchanged glances.
Xie Yingying: “Look, this person is starting again.”
Xue Xi did not reply.
At night, the four of them lay on the bed after taking a shower. After switching off the lights, Li Zixia started the night chat in the dormitory.
After all, they had just met, so everyone introduced themselves simply. Li Zixia came from a wealthy city in the south. Her family manufactured electronic watches and was very rich.
Liu Zhao was from a southern village and her parents were farmers.
Xie Yingying was from a wealthy family, but she could not afford luxury goods. She was more open and neither servile nor overbearing.
When it was Xue Xi’s turn, she simply said, “I came from Bin City.”
She did not say anything else.
After all, their families were all older people. Most of the students who could get into Huaxia University relied on their real results and were very arrogant.
Everyone only recognized the results.
Li Zixia said, “I scored 690 for the college entrance examination and am the first in our school. Liu Zhao, what about you?”
Liu Zhao said timidly, “I scored 713 marks.”
“Fuck! Impressive!” Li Zixia asked, “Is it the highest score from your side?”
Liu Zhao smiled and remained silent.
Xie Yingying exclaimed, “Wow, I didn’t expect to live in the same dormitory as the top scorer of the college entrance examination. My God, you’re too amazing!”
When Li Zixia heard this, she turned to look at Xie Yingying and asked, “I remember that you and Xue Xi were guaranteed admission? Then did you guys take the college entrance examination?”
Xie Yingying: “... No.”
Li Zixia was not envious of her. Instead, she looked down on her. “You guys came in through the back door and can be considered specialists. Let me tell you, it’s meaningless to not take the college entrance examination once in your life!”
Xie Yingying was displeased. “How am I a specialized student? We even participated in the IMO and obtained a gold medal for China!”
Li Zixia pouted. “We’re strong all around, but you guys are biased to one subject. If you were to have taken the college entrance examination, can you guarantee that you’d have gotten into Huaxia University?”
Her words silenced Xie Yingying.
She had placed all her attention on mathematics since elementary school and relied on mathematics to get into Huaxia University. However, no matter how good her mathematics was, it was only 150 marks at most. Her grades on the rest of the subjects were not good enough.
However, those who could get into Huaxia University were all top students from various provinces. Their results were indeed better.
Xie Yingying snorted. “That’s different. I spent all the time that should have been used studying other subjects on mathematics. If I had taken the path that you guys did though, I would have been able to get in!”
Li Zixia snorted in disdain and shamelessly asked Xue Xi, “Stop being stubborn. Let’s ask Xue Xi. If you had taken the college entrance examination, would you have been able to get into Huaxia University?”
Ch358: I’m Not Joking
There were as many provinces in the country as there were college entrance examination top students.
Although Li Zixia and Xue Xi were both from the south, Li Zixia was closer to the south and was still a distance away from Xue Xi, who was in the provincial capital for the college entrance examination.
Hence, Li Zixia only knew that she was the top scorer in her province and did not pay attention to other provinces. After all, if she were to pay attention to all of them, she would have to pay attention to about 30!
Moreover, Xue Xi was a low-profile person. After the college entrance examination, other than going back to school to take a photo, she did not accept any reporters’ interview. Hence, everyone only knew that she had a perfect score this year and shocked the entire country, but they did not know who she was.
After Li Zixia said this, Xie Yingying, who knew that Xue Xi had taken the college entrance examination, could not help but ask, “Sister Xi, didn’t you take the college entrance examination? How did you do?”
Xue Xi: “... Not bad.”
“How many marks is it?” Li Zixia could not help but ask. “Has it reached the admission score for Huaxia University?”
When Xie Yingying heard this, she hurriedly changed the topic, afraid that Li Zixia would continue asking and embarrass Xue Xi. “Sister Xi, I remember that you’re from Jiangnan Province, right?”
This was the disadvantage of having a guaranteed student not taking the college entrance examination. If the college entrance examination scores were low, it would leave a bad impression.
Li Zixia seemed to have understood something, so before she could answer, she mumbled to herself, “Speaking of Jiangnan Province, the top scholar of the province this year actually scored full marks! You have to know that Jiangnan Province is the largest and most difficult province in the country. I wonder how their brain works. How did they get full marks?”
Liu Zhao nodded. “Yes. I was stunned when I heard that there was someone with a perfect score. There has never been a perfect scorer in history!”
When Xie Yingying heard this, she could not help but agree. “She scored full marks in every subject and is really amazing! I wonder which city she came from. Sister Xi, do you know her?”
Xue Xi closed her eyes and listened to them. It was already 11 PM and it was time for her to sleep. She was a little sleepy and mumbled, “... Mhm, I know her.”
They were quite close.
The other three people became excited when they heard this. Hence, they asked, “How does she look? Does she look good?”
“Not bad.”
“She’s so good at her studies. Does she not sleep? Does she eat?”
“…”
“Xue Xi? Xue Xi?”
Xue Xi turned around impatiently. “That’s all.”
After saying this, she fell asleep.
The other three: “?”
Why does this apathetic tone sound a little unhappy? But that’s true. Everyone was an outstanding person from all over. How could they admire others?
Everyone kept talking about the top scorer, but it was possible that Xue Xi was a competitor.
Forget it.
Hence, the dormitory that had been chatting the whole night finally quietened down.
Xue Xi had finally fallen asleep.
The next morning, Xue Xi woke up and looked at the English book she had brought. After she had been reading for an hour, the rest of the people gradually woke up.
Xie Yingying woke up first. After washing up quickly, she called Xue Xi out for breakfast.
Li Zixia was a little slower. After her skincare routine was done and she slowly tidied up, she entered the dormitory and saw Liu Zhao reading the book Xue Xi had just read.
Li Zixia was stunned. “What are you looking at?”
Liu Zhao put down the book in a panic and said, “Oh, Xue Xi woke up early just now. When I read the English textbook, I couldn’t understand what it was about. I suddenly feel that I’ve really slacked off after entering university.”
Seeing her like this, Li Zixia said, “Damn, they’re specialized students. After they go to university, their grades will be the same as ours. Don’t work harder, alright? You might burnout. Moreover, we still have mid-term and end-of-term exams.”
Liu Zhao nodded.
Li Zixia passed her the skincare products in her hands. “Hey, use my skincare products.”
Liu Zhao was a little shy. “I’d rather not. This thing is too expensive.”
Li Zixia smiled. “It’s fine. Just don’t ruin it. However, Liu Zhao, the class meeting will be held this morning and the class representative will be chosen. Do you want to vote for me? I want to be the class president!”
Liu Zhao paused and nodded. “Okay.”
…
Xue Xi and Xie Yingying went to the school building after having breakfast.
The ancient school was filled with pavilions and such structures along the way. It was like an ancient palace with a small bridge and flowing water. The scenery was very beautiful.
When the two of them reached the classroom, Xie Yingying started gossiping with Xue Xi. “Right, Zhang Hao is also in our class. He chose the applied mathematics major, but Li Xuekai chose another major. The rest are in Huazhong University.”
Xue Xi: “... Oh.”
She was not too concerned about this and continued to study the programming on her phone.
Soon, there were more and more people in the class. Everyone sat casually according to their dormitory. Xue Xi’s red hair was very eye-catching. Everyone looked at her when they entered, but when they saw her cold expression, they felt that she was not to be trifled with. The rest did not dare to sit over.
The Math Department’s male and female students were severely imbalanced. There were 60 people in a class, but there were only 12 girls.
At this moment, Li Zixia entered with milk tea in her hands. Liu Zhao was like her sidekick and her hands were also full. The two of them started distributing the milk tea from the first row.
“Hi, hello. I’m Li Zixia. We’ll be classmates from now on. Hehe, when we choose the class president later, can you vote for me?”
Li Zixia was straightforward and generous, making the group of people quickly remember her.
After distributing milk tea to the entire class, Li Zixia sat beside Xue Xi and Xie Yingying.
There were four people in a row, and two were empty.
After sitting down, Li Zixia turned around and mingled with the rest of the students.
They had just gotten to know each other and were still fresh out of high school. Everyone kept their mouths shut and were still discussing the college entrance examination scores.
Everyone was most curious. “... That student who scored full marks for the college entrance examination is also in our school. I wonder which department he or she is in.”
Xie Yingying was very curious and poked Xue Xi’s arm. “Sister Xi, who exactly scored full marks in your province?”
Xue Xi turned to look at her and replied, “Me.”
Xie Yingying: “?”
She was first stunned, then she could not help but laugh. “Sister Xi, you really know how to joke.”
Xue Xi shot her a glance and retracted her gaze.
Looking at her apathetic expression, Xie Yingying suddenly recalled the time when the IMO examination was being held. When they asked her how she did in the examination, she also replied, “Not bad.” Then, she got full marks.
How did she answer when they asked her about the college entrance examination yesterday?
She suddenly recalled that it was along the lines of... alright?
Xie Yingying’s eyes widened. “Sister Xi, are you kidding me?”
Xue Xi shot her another glance and said coldly, “I’m not joking.”
Ch359: Red Hair~
Xie Yingying: “…”
Gosh, what kind of person did she know?!
It was fine if she scored full marks for the Mathematical Olympiad, but for the other subjects, she actually scored full marks too? How talented was she? Moreover, seeing that she was holding her phone and searching for some programming knowledge, Xie Yingying suddenly felt that she was not afraid of geniuses being quick-witted, but she was afraid that geniuses would work harder than she did!
Sister Xi was already like this. What right did Xie Yingying have to play?
Thinking about it, ever since she returned from the International Math Olympiad, she had never touched books again. Other than watching dramas, she had been reading celebrity gossip online every day. She was too relaxed!
This was Huaxia University, and the best students in the country were gathered here. Studying was like sailing against the current. If one did not advance, one would fall behind. She had understood this principle since she was young, so why was she slacking now?
All of a sudden, Xie Yingying felt that the tension she’d felt after being released from the IMO had risen again.
Yes, she had to wake up early tomorrow and start memorizing English. There was still a level four English examination this year! She had to strive to pass level four this year and level six next year!
While everyone was bustling, they set up a WeChat group opposite each other and kept it for future contact.
At this moment, the form teacher walked in.
The textbooks, school uniforms, and bedding had been distributed yesterday. It was the first period now, and the form teacher wanted everyone to introduce themselves and get to know each other. Immediately, some were going to be appointed as class committee members.
The form teacher was a woman in her thirties. She must have just graduated from her PhD.
When Xue Xi was introducing herself, the teacher had already noticed her. Now, they were appointing the class representatives, and she’d been staring at Xue Xi for a long time. In the end, she looked at her hair for a while before saying, “Let’s choose the class monitor first today. As for the rest of the class representatives, we’ll choose them after everyone is familiar with each other after the military training is over! Did anyone recommend themselves?”
Just as she said this, Li Zixia raised her hand.
She focused on introducing herself and the introduction was very direct. “Hehe, I know that compared to everyone here, my studies are not the best, and my personality might not be the best either. I’m not the best at anything, but I’m rich! I think that there’s a benefit to being the class president, and that is that I won’t be detained! So I hope everyone will support me!”
Everyone burst out laughing.
After Li Zixia sat down, two other people stood up and introduced themselves. The form teacher asked everyone to vote anonymously.
When Xie Yingying was voting, she shot a glance at Xue Xi and realized that the name written on her paper was: Li Zixia?
Although Xie Yingying felt that this person loved to flaunt her wealth, she still voted for her.
In the end, Li Zixia won by a hair’s breadth and only had one more vote than others!
After the class monitor was confirmed, the form teacher chatted with everyone for a while before saying, “There’s a new student’s mobilization meeting in the afternoon and everyone has to attend it. Everyone, hurry up and have lunch. Don’t be late in the afternoon. Those who are late have to memorize the others’ names!”
After everyone left, the form teacher said, “Xue Xi, follow me.”
Xue Xi did not understand and followed the form teacher out of the classroom.
After staring at Xue Xi for a while, she said, “Erm, can you dye your hair black?”
Xue Xi: “…”
She had always been well-behaved and loved to study. The teachers and parents had never worried about her. She did not expect that one day, she would be asked to dye her hair.
She could not help but recall Old Liu’s request for the chatterbox to dye her hair back in school. Later, the chatterbox could not stand Old Liu’s intentions and had dyed her hair black.
She was then surrounded by the Roaring Flame Society. It was also that time when she met Gao Yanchen...
Xue Xi’s eyes darkened as she said, “Teacher, did I break the school rules?”
The form teacher, Ms Ye: “…”
There was no clear rule in university that one could not dye one’s hair. It was just that the requirement was that one could not dress oddly. One could not be too strange and was required to look prim and proper.
It was wrong to say that Xue Xi’s red hair was unbecoming. This person was extremely beautiful, but her face was cold and indifferent. One could not see any hint of indecency.
However, as the representative of the freshmen, this head of red hair was indeed not too good.
Ms Ye paused and said, “Xue Xi, it’s like this. I originally wanted you to be the academic representative. After all, you scored full marks for the college entrance examination... Please dye your hair black.”
Xue Xi: “... Then I won’t be the academic representative.”
Ms Ye: “?”
Not just anyone could enter Huaxia University’s student council. This was one of the top universities in the country. If one could hold a position in the student council and be recognized as the class representative, this could also be used in their resume in the future!
This was also the reason why so many people were competing for the class president position.
Unexpectedly, Xue Xi actually rejected it?
Ms Ye could not make things difficult for her and could only wave her hand. “Alright, go ahead.”
Xue Xi turned around and left.
Ms Ye paused for a while before taking a deep breath. She then called for the class president, Li Zixia, to follow her to the office.
After arriving at the office, Ms Ye gave Li Zixia some instructions as the class president. She then gave her the class schedule and asked her to send it to the students.
She then said, “Wait a moment. I’ll go upstairs to ask for instructions.”
Xue Xi had red hair and could not speak as the representative of the freshmen. There would need to be some changes to the freshmen assembly at 2 PM.
Forget it. I’ll call Xue Xi’s parents first and get them to persuade her.
In the end—
Ye Li picked up the call quickly, but when Ms Ye addressed how Xue Xi had dyed her hair, Ye Li was shocked. “Ms Ye, Huaxia University is such a huge school. Could it be that you can’t even tolerate students? For a high-level university like Huaxia University, you should be accepting students from all over the world to accentuate your university’s presence, right?”
Ms Ye: “?”
After Ms Ye left, Li Zixia grew bored and looked at the student information on her desk. She suddenly realized that there was a stack of students’ college entrance examination results on it.
Her eyes lit up.
She had long been curious about how many marks those people in the class had scored during the college entrance examination. She did not expect that she would actually see it!
Let me see how many marks Xue Xi had scored in the college entrance examination!
Ch360: Untitled
Li Zixia flipped through the forms.
The first thing that came into view was Liu Zhao’s score. When placed first, it was obvious that she was the first in the class, followed by the rest.
She looked down at the scores and saw the last row. Beneath the three specialized students, there were no marks.
Li Zixia: “… ”
This form was printed with the scores of the students who applied following the college entrance examination. Although Xue Xi had participated in the college entrance examination, she had actually not participated in the admissions for the college entrance examination. She had taken the path of guaranteed admission.
Hence, it was impossible for her to score on the college entrance examination admissions list.
However, in Li Zixia’s eyes, this meant that Xue Xi’s score was indeed not high. Otherwise, how could this name list not have any marks?
She shook her head.
At this moment, Ms Ye, who had left, returned. She was in a state of confusion, as though her worldview had been shaken.
When she saw Li Zixia, she fell silent and asked, “Li Zixia, are parents nowadays very supportive of you guys going to dye your hair?”
Dyeing hair?
Li Zixia thought of Xue Xi, who was in the same dormitory as her. Her red hair was indeed arrogant and dazzling. Li Zixia thought for a moment and said, “Teacher, the times are different now. New young people need to have our characteristics. I think that as long as their makeup is appropriate, there shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
Ms Ye: “…”
The corners of her lips twitched and she finally said, “Alright!”
After saying that, she gave Li Zixia a financial assistance application form for poor students and said, “This is from the school. Each class can have six slots. You should first understand the situation of the students and then choose the poorest six slots to hand these over. The poorest students can apply for a five thousand yuan per semester’s scholarship!”
Li Zixia nodded.
She looked at the application form and realized that there were three levels for poor students.
They were divided into the poorest, the slightly poor, and the average.
After she left with the forms, she went to look for Liu Zhao and asked, “Is your family poor?”
When she chatted with the few people in the dormitory yesterday, she’d realized that Liu Zhao’s parents were farmers. Compared to her, it was obvious that Xie Yingying was from a wealthy family.
As for Xue Xi... Mhm, Xue Xi also needed a form.
She was too poor.
Liu Zhao shook her head. “No need. My parents are very rich. Our village has been expropriated, so they gave us a lot of money.”
When Li Zixia heard this, she nodded. “Alright, I’ll ask the other dormitories!”
She was very efficient. Moreover, when she entered the classroom today, she already got along well with her classmates. Hence, she quickly created a dormitory by dormitory group chat and announced this news in each group.
Among those in the two-person dormitories, only one would be the poorer student.
This was very fair, and the spot for this poor student would be chosen between the two dormitory mates.
It was easy for the boys, but for the girls, there were exactly three dormitory rooms. After Li Zixia went to the other two dormitory rooms to take a look, she returned and realized that everyone’s conditions were actually not bad. Then no one would fight for this poor student spot. It would directly be Xue Xi’s!
Li Zixia was a passionate person. After deciding on a candidate, Xue Xi and Xie Yingying returned to the dormitory at noon. The bar form was placed on Xue Xi’s table. “That... Xue Xi, it’s like this. This is the application form for the poor. Can you fill it out? The highest is 5,000 yuan, and the lowest is 1,500 yuan!”
Xue Xi, who had just entered: “?”
Xie Yingying: “?”
Xie Yingying was stunned.
Is Sister Xi a poor student? When I was at the airport in Country M, I was not with Xue Xi and the rest, but Sister Xi’s friends can go to Country M to cheer for her. No matter how you look at it, she doesn’t seem to be poor, right?
Xue Xi silently returned the form to Li Zixia. “I’m not poor.”
She did not lack money!
Li Zixia was stunned. After staring at her for a while, she patted her shoulder and lowered her voice. “Xue Xi, stop being stubborn. That, fill in the form. I promise I won’t leak your name. Others definitely won’t know that you’re a poor student.”
Xue Xi: “?”
She stared at Li Zixia. “I’m really not poor.”
After saying that, she pushed the form to Li Zixia and called Xie Yingying. The two of them took their books and left.
There was no choice.
Everyone had just started school and had yet to open their textbooks. They were all anxious to play and the dormitory was too chaotic. Xue Xi decided to go to the library to read.
When Xie Yingying heard this, she immediately said that she wanted to join too.
After the two of them left, Liu Zhao asked, “Is Xue Xi’s family really not poor?”
Li Zixia fell silent for a moment before saying, “I don’t think so. Look, her skincare products don’t even have a brand. One look and you can tell that it was taken from someone. Moreover, her clothes...”
Li Zixia pointed at her wardrobe. “She only brought a small bag of clothes. I don’t think she even has a down jacket! The winter in the south is not cold, so she doesn’t need to wear it. She doesn’t know that the winter in the capital is very cold. Forget it, she must be embarrassed and afraid of being looked down on. I’ll help her submit the application... When the money comes, she can at least use the money to buy a down jacket, right?”
When Liu Zhao heard this, she glanced at Li Zixia and clenched her fists.
…
In the afternoon, everyone held a new student assembly.
The person who represented the freshmen on stage had indeed changed. It was no longer Xue Xi, but Li Xuekai.
Li Xuekai had also participated in the college entrance examination and scored very high. Moreover, he had obtained a good result with a difference of two full marks in the IMO. Hence, other than Xue Xi, Li Xuekai was the best in the school.
Xue Xi did not like being in the limelight, so she silently heaved a sigh of relief when she was not allowed to go on stage.
Li Zixia looked at Li Xuekai on the stage and became infatuated. “So handsome! Which department is this person from? Is he also from our mathematics school? Five minutes. I want all the information about this person!”
“…”
The vice-principal also attended the assembly in the afternoon and said some encouraging words to the students. He also announced the duration of the new students’ military training. It would last for two weeks from Wednesday, and during this period, they were not allowed to go home.
The assembly of the freshmen ended very quickly and everyone left according to their respective specializations. At this moment, the crowd suddenly became restless.
Xue Xi looked up and realized that Li Xuekai, who had just gone on stage to speak, was walking toward her.
Li Zixia nervously grabbed Xue Xi’s wrist. “Xue Xi, look! Ah ah ah, the male god is walking toward me! He’s walking toward me!”
Just as Li Zixia was feeling nervous, Li Xuekai stood in front of them and turned to look at Xue Xi. “Long time no see.”
