Jiang Mianmian already knew about getting on the honor roll at the eting.
Because before the exam, the principal ntioned it, and a few days before she went to Capital City, Teacher Chu even asked her for a photo.
She thought at the earliest it would be the start of the new sester when she would be on the list, but unexpectedly, the school had already posted it. That’s really efficient.
But it’s understandable. After all, Town No. 1 Middle School had, for so many years, finally produced a city top scorer like her. The principal was so happy that he had a few more wrinkles on his face.
With such an accomplished student, of course, he would want to promote for next year’s admission rate.
Not long after the midterm exams, Jiang Mianmian’s photo appeared on the honor roll, and next to her photo were a few lines, recording her skipping grades along the way.
"Really? I went to Capital City right after the holidays, so I really didn’t know about this." Jiang Mianmian didn’t expect the school to be this efficient.
"By the way, Mianmian, I haven’t thanked you yet. Thanks to your tutoring over this period, my grades improved a lot this sester. Even our class advisor praised several tis." Li Lan’s face bead with a radiant smile when she ntioned being praised by the teacher.
"Sister Lanlan, you don’t have to thank . I didn’t help much. Your improvent is mainly because you’re smart, hardworking, and really talented. For many problems, you understood after I explained them just once. So, if you’re going to thank anyone, thank yourself." Jiang Mianmian encouraged her.
Li Lan’s grades had always been above average. She had always worked hard, but her grades didn’t improve, and she once thought she was too stupid.
Especially with Jiang Mianmian, the skipping grade Little Prodigy, as a comparison, she doubted herself even more.
But now, Jiang Mianmian said she was talented and smart, which imdiately gave her confidence.
"Mianmian, thank you." Li Lan sincerely thanked her again, both for tutoring and encouraging her, and for recognizing her abilities.
"Alright, Sister Lanlan, let’s not thank each other anymore. It’s no big deal. We’ll continue studying together this sumr." Jiang Mianmian saw that Li Lan’s eyes were a bit red and smiled as she took her hand.
"Okay." Li Lan nodded firmly.
Wang Li didn’t understand what was between them. After they finished talking, he mysteriously ca over and pulled out a handful of marbles and a very new comic book from his pocket, smiling broadly: "Jiang Mianmian, this is my thank-you gift to you."
"Huh? Thank-you gift? What for?" Jiang Mianmian was baffled by Wang Li’s unexpected behavior.
"Hehe, it’s to thank you for the formulas you taught last sester! You know? I used those to answer questions, and this ti in the final exam, I got sixth place in the class. Sixth place in the class! This is the proudest mont of my life. My parents were so happy, they hugged and praised non-stop." Wang Li shared his joy with Jiang Mianmian, animatedly.
"Sixth place? That’s really impressive."
Jiang Mianmian knew that Wang Li usually had the lowest grades in the class, so scoring this high was really a leap forward. No wonder his parents were so thrilled.
For the first ti, Wang Li was praised by Jiang Mianmian, and being praised made him even more excited and eager to share his joy with her.
