“Thank you.” This was the first time Pan Ning had met a friend who was willing to listen to her talk about these things. Although Meng Zhu would not mind talking to her about these things, Meng Zhu really did not understand a thing she said.
It was Pan Ning’s first time experiencing the joy of sharing her hobbies with a friend.
Although Cui Ya was lying on the bed, she was not asleep. When she heard the conversation between Yuan Xiao and the others, Cui Ya felt that they were boring, but she also envied their friendship. She angrily covered her head with the blanket.
Wang Xin noticed the commotion on Cui Ya’s side and shook her head helplessly. “Alright, rest early. We still have to go to class tomorrow morning.”
Pan Ning washed up briefly and went to bed. Yuan Xiao lit a small table lamp and looked at the notes Zhou Nuo had given her. As expected of a genius star student, even though Yuan Xiao did not understand these contents at all, she could understand a lot of professional knowledge from Zhou Nuo’s notes.
Because of the Academic Genius System’s photographic memory, Yuan Xiao finished reading and memorizing Zhou Nuo’s thick notebook in two hours.
[Congratulations, Host. You have mastered this knowledge skill. Please receive your 80 points!]
The system notification that sounded in her mind shocked Yuan Xiao. She did not expect this mission to be completed so easily. She thought that she would have to continue to ask Zhou Nuo for more professional knowledge tomorrow.
After a simple tidying up, Yuan Xiao returned to the bed to rest.
In the first class of the next day, the results of the basic test were out. When the teacher announced the ranking, Yuan Xiao was a little nervous. After all, the students here were different from the students in school. Every one of them had extraordinary talent and brains. Even if Yuan Xiao had the Academic Genius System, she could not guarantee that she would get first place.
Therefore, when the teacher said that the first place was Zhou Nuo, Yuan Xiao was not too surprised. After all, Zhou Nuo’s performance yesterday was already very obvious. He was a genius in many aspects. Unlike Yuan Xiao, who had been helped by the system, Zhou Nuo was an existence that was difficult to surpass.
Yuan Xiao’s ranking was behind Zhou Nuo’s, and third place was Shen Xiu.
Wang Xin and Pan Ning were ranked just above the middle, Cui Hao and Fang Yao were ranked right in the middle, and Cui Ya was undoubtedly ranked last.
However, Yuan Xiao felt that even Cui Ya, who was at the bottom, should be able to get a medium ranking in Ming He First Middle School. The students in the training camp had good results, which was why Cui Ya’s difference from the rest was so obvious.
Cui Ya clearly found it difficult to accept the fact that she was last. Although her grades were not that good previously, it was impossible for her to be last.
After the first class ended, Cui Ya ran out of the classroom. Cui Hao was worried about her and chased after her.
Wang Xin looked at the siblings who had run out and sighed. “Xiao Xiao, don’t you think Cui Hao is too worried? He’s clearly a younger brother. I think it’s even harder for him than for their parents. Cui Ya doesn’t act like an elder sister at all.”
“After all, she’s his sister. It’s normal to be a little concerned.” Yuan Xiao knew that Wang Xin did not like Cui Ya, so she persuaded, “The training camp isn’t very long, and we might not see each other in the future. You don’t have to take it to heart.”
Yuan Xiao originally wanted to persuade Wang Xin, but Pan Ning said sadly, “Yes, once the winter holiday training camp ends, we’ll be separated.” Hearing Pan Ning’s words, everyone fell silent.
“Who said that? Where do you plan to go for university? We might meet in university.” Wang Xin had never liked pessimism. She really liked Yuan Xiao and Pan Ning. Of course, she did not want to lose contact with them completely.
“I plan to enter University A. What about you guys?” Yuan Xiao felt that everyone’s results were not bad and they had the ability to enter University A.
“Same. I don’t want to be too far away from home. Only University A is ranked highly in the country.” Wang Xin had long set University A as her goal. With her results, it was more than enough for her to enter the foreign language department of University A.
“I want to go to University A too, but I…” Pan Ning lowered her head in frustration.
“Your results are about the same as mine. It’s not a problem for you to go to University A.” Wang Xin thought that Pan Ning was not confident.
“It’s not about my grades. My mother wants me to go to law school.” Pan Ning sighed and continued, “My parents work for the prosecutor’s office. They also want me to go to law school and be a prosecutor like them in the future.”
Yuan Xiao finally understood why Pan Ning was a little introverted. She clearly did not look unconfident. It was probably because her parents had interfered too much with her that Pan Ning became less and less confident and opinionated..
