With Hou Zi’s help, things would undoubtedly be better.
While waiting for the results, Ye Jian carefully recalled what she had done just now and confirmed that there were no flaws, but she did not refuse Hou Zi’s help; she sincerely thanked him again.
Hou Zi couldn’t help laughing at her politeness, “Hey, we are a family; you don’t have to be too polite to me.” Hou Zi laughed even louder, seeing the girl in front of him embarrassed by his words.
She was indeed an ironic girl.
She was innocent when she smiled, but her expression would never change when she saw blood. Only Old Six dared to look for a girl like that; ordinary people wouldn’t have that guts.
Looking down at the time, it was indeed late. There were still people waiting for him at home, so he didn’t accompany Ye Jian any longer, “Yi Wei is still waiting for me at home; I won’t wait with you.”
After sending Hou Zi away, Ye Jian waited a little more than five o’clock to get the inspection report, and it was half-past six when she returned to the hotel.
She told Principal Chen that she would attend her Yunnan High School classmate’s gathering; that was not a lie. She indeed had a class gathering.
Thirty-four students from First Provincial High School, Year 3 Class 1, under the leadership of Teacher Tong, the class teacher, were admitted to top universities, 19 got second class. Among the six girls in Ye Jian’s dormitory, all of them admitted to first-class honors, but there were also some that didn’t make it on the list.
Monitor Lu Xin was one of them.
He caught a bad cold on the eve of the college entrance examination and fainted on the first day after entering the examination hall.
He was the first to arrive at the gathering place, “Venus Hotel”. A group of students who came one after another saw a figure wearing a military uniform from a distance; they all rushed over after a daze.
“Class monitor, wow! Class monitor, you…you really joined the army! Heck, I thought you were simply talking about it!” The boy who came over hugged the former class monitor. Although they had only been separated for half a year, their eyes were still reddened a little.
Lu Xin had grown taller and stronger now; even though he had only been in the army for a month, he had already polished out the temperament of a soldier.
Upon hearing this, he laughed, “Why would I lie to you? I told my family a long time ago. If I fail to get into a good school, I will join the army.”
“You’re so cool, monitor! You really…really did it!” A boy who chose to repeat the exam gave him a thumbs up, “You’re better than me. You see I’m still retaking the exam; I don’t know if I can even pass next year.”
“When did the “talent” in our class become so unconfident? Come on, show off the courage you used to compare with Ye Jian. A college entrance examination isn’t a problem to you!” There was laughter coming from behind. Zhang Yueyan, who they hadn’t seen for half a year, became slim. She stood behind the boys carrying a gift box; her eyebrows were delicate, she was much more beautiful than she was in high school.
The boys turned their heads and stared, “Wow, an ugly duckling to a swan, Zhang Yueyan, you really became very beautiful!”
Zhang Yueyan rolled her eyes at her former classmates, “Although I was a bit ugly before, I didn’t disturb you guys; it’s not like you felt nauseating seeing my face last time.”
“Hahaha, no, no, it didn’t. Come on, let’s go, let our monitor wait alone. Our monitor is now a soldier, and he is resistant to cold!”
Lu Xin pushed the boy who was talking, pretending to be disgusted, “Quickly go in, shoo, shoo, you’re like a paper man, I don’t want you to catch a cold then I’ll have to carry you to the hospital.”
“Class monitor, are there any classmates in there? Is Ye Jian here?” Zhang Yueyan wanted to see Ye Jian the most. After taking a few steps, she turned her head and asked, “Does she know we are having a gathering?”
