Chapter 288: Chapter 288: Estimating Scores to Fill in Preferences Chapter 288: Chapter 288: Estimating Scores to Fill in Preferences Two days later, the middle school exams ended.
That afternoon, the school gave a three-day break.
After three days, students had to co to school to estimate their scores and fill out their preferences.
During these three days, Luo ngng dread every night that she had scored “250”.
In the morning on her way to school, Luo ngng stared with her slightly reddish big eyes, standing at Gu Zhihan’s doorstep, waiting for him to co out.
Gu Zhihan ca out pushing his bike and saw the young girl squatting in his yard, plucking the small weeds on the lawn intermittently with her fair little hands.
He walked over, slightly surprised, and helped her up from the ground, “Why did you get up so early today?”
Usually, at this ti, she would still be sound asleep in bed, waiting for him to wake her up.
Luo ngng puffed out her little cheeks, her eyes welling with redness, “I couldn’t sleep, and I wanted to go to school early to estimate my score.”
As long as her scores hadn’t been released, she couldn’t rest easy.
Gu Zhihan expressed understanding, patted the back seat, and signaled to her, “Then don’t just stand there, I’ll give you a ride to school.”
“Yeah!” When Luo ngng climbed onto the back seat of his bicycle, she tightly hugged his waist and rested her small head on his broad back, murmuring gloomily to him, “Gu Zhihan, do you know I’ve been having the sa dream these past few days.”
“What dream?” Gu Zhihan beca a bit curious and asked as he started pedaling the bike toward the school.
After taking a breath, Luo ngng finally said, “I keep dreaming that I scored 250 on the middle school exams!”
“Pfft!” Gu Zhihan couldn’t help but laugh out loud, and the bike began to wobble as if he were riding a wiggling worm around, looking like he might fall over any second.
Luo ngng quickly patted his back, “Hey, stop laughing and ride properly!”
She definitely didn’t want to die young.
Gu Zhihan coughed lightly twice, steadied the handlebars, and continued on, but his shaking shoulders betrayed his amusent.
He was clearly… still laughing!
Luo ngng couldn’t help but feel exasperated, giving him a resentful stare at his back, “I’m sincerely pouring my heart out to you, and you, you actually laugh at !!”
Gu Zhihan heard that she was getting a bit angry and quickly put away the smile on his face, focusing on riding the bike, “I won’t laugh anymore.”
“That’s more like it.” Luo ngng muttered, then continued worrying about her scores, “Do you think I might really have scored 250 points?”
“You won’t.” His voice was decisive.
Hearing his words, Luo ngng felt as though most of the defeatism within her had vanished, and she couldn’t help but ask him, “Why are you so sure?”
“Because… you are a girl I tutored!” Gu Zhihan’s lips held a faint confidence.
“Humph!”
Luo ngng sighed and just then they arrived at the school parking lot, so she jumped down from his bike.
Once Gu Zhihan parked the bike, the young boy and girl walked shoulder to shoulder into the classroom.
The bustling noise in the classroom was loud, echoing up and down the corridor with the sounds from their class.
The middle school exams answer sheets were on the lectern, a thick stack for students to take and look over.
Luo ngng hurried to get two copies, one for herself and one for Gu Zhihan.
“Where’s the pen? The pen? I need to calculate my scores quickly!” Luo ngng started searching for her black pen when she got back to her seat, nervously yet eagerly tallying her scores.
Gu Zhihan, however, casually glanced at the answers and then set them aside.
Yeah, just as he answered.
If nothing unexpected happened, it would be a perfect score.
He just wasn’t sure if there would be a symbolic deduction for the essay in Chinese.
