Zhen Yu responded to him with actions, the answer being a definite and resounding yes!
Zhen Yan’s day was thus clearly arranged by his younger sister.
On Monday, there was a parent-teacher eting, but as Zhen Yan had already graduated from junior high, there was no need for him to attend; he simply needed to collect his diploma.
Mrs. Zhen’s primary focus was on Zhen Yu, and after attending the general eting with the other parents, she once again visited Teacher Cao’s office.
"Have a seat," Cao Yong said politely as he offered Mrs. Zhen a seat.
"Zhen Yu did extrely well in the grade-skipping exam, her scores were at the top even among the second-year junior high group. Not only that, but she is still ranked first in the final exams of the first-year junior high."
Over the past year, Mrs. Zhen had always heard about her daughter’s excellence, but hearing it from the horoom teacher herself still gave her an extra thrill.
"Ah, this child, this child..." Mrs. Zhen, rubbing her hands, wasn’t sure whether to modestly deflect or to also take the opportunity to brag a little.
Cao Yong’s stern face rarely showed a smile, "Let her report directly to Class One of the third year when the school year starts. She already knows Teacher Jiang."
"Then, you won’t be teaching her anymore?" Mrs. Zhen had heard from her daughter that Teacher Cao Yong was particularly good at teaching math and was very principled.
She really felt it was a pity that such a good teacher would no longer be instructing Zhen Yu.
"Ha-ha!" Teacher Cao laughed, "That hasn’t been decided yet, but I definitely won’t be her horoom teacher!"
"Alright then!" Mrs. Zhen also understood that the curriculum arrangents had to follow the school’s decision; it wasn’t up to Cao Yong alone.
Following that, Cao Yong and Mrs. Zhen had an in-depth discussion about Zhen Yu’s performance during her ti at the school, and all in all, it was still mostly praise.
After returning ho at midday, Mrs. Zhen looked contentedly at the three little ones studying at ho, made lunch, ate, and then went back to Shoe City.
---
It was supposed to be a quiet day for studying, but it was disrupted by two unexpected visitors.
"Zhen Yu! Zhen Yu, are you ho?"
Hearing soone calling her na in the courtyard, Zhen Yu stood up and then saw Qian Duoduo and Liu Ting.
She put down her pen and went out to greet them, "How did you two get together?"
"I didn’t know where your house was, so I specially asked at Teacher Qian’s ho and had Qian Duoduo lead the way!" explained Liu Ting.
Zhen Yu gave a half-hearted complint, "Impressive! Please, co inside."
As soon as the two entered the living room, they saw Zhen Yan and Han Mingyue bent over their studies.
"What are you guys..." Qian Duoduo was a bit surprised; school had just let out for sumr, and here Zhen Yu and the others were already studying!
She had planned to skip a grade like Zhen Yu, but didn’t she also want to rest and play for a couple of days first?
It’s frustrating how comparison with others can be so disheartening!
Zhen Yu didn’t hide anything and straightforwardly said, "I’m self-studying the third year’s curriculum."
Liu Ting looked like she was about to faint, "Oh my! You’re already an excellent student and yet you’re working so hard, how are we supposed to get by!"
Qian Duoduo was silent for a mont before looking at Zhen Yu, "Congratulations on successfully skipping a grade."
"Right, right! That’s what we ca to congratulate you on!" added Liu Ting quickly: "It’s just a sha we can’t be desk-mates anymore."
"Even if we’re not desk-mates, we’re still friends!" Zhen Yu said with a sincere smile, gazing warmly at the two.
"Mm-hmm!" Both nodded in agreent.
Zhen Yu pointed to the chairs on either side of the small coffee table in front of the living room window, "Please, take a seat!"
As soon as Liu Ting sat down, she said, "Let’s go take a photo as a nto."
Qian Duoduo didn’t speak, but she also looked at Zhen Yu.
Zhen Yu thought for a mont, "It’s not necessary to go through that trouble. We’ll also go when we take the graduation photos in the third year."
Duoduo’s eyes lit up, "That’s possible! There will be many people wanting individual portraits and group photos, we can also take them at school."
"Alright then." Liu Ting, left with no support, had to agree.
——
Zhen Yu poured water for the two and grabbed so snacks, pulling a chair in front of them, the three of them sat facing each other and chatted about family matters for a while.
As they were talking, Liu Ting suddenly said, "Tsk! My stomach hurts a bit, where’s your bathroom?"
"Follow ." Zhen Yu got up first and walked out the door.
Leading Liu Ting to the bathroom at the entrance of the courtyard, Zhen Yu pointed, "There’s paper inside."
Liu Ting hurriedly rushed in and closed the door.
Zhen Yu turned around to leave, it was sumr, and she didn’t want to wait too close to the outhouse.
But just as she had walked four or five steps away, Liu Ting suddenly scread, "Xiao Yu! Xiao Yu! Co quick!"
Her voice faintly carried a sobbing tone, and Zhen Yu got startled. What’s going on? Could there be a mouse in the toilet? But mice don’t eat shit!
Zhen Yu didn’t understand, but she had to hurry and check!
She walked over quickly with a stern face and opened the bathroom door. Liu Ting, squatting there, lifted her face as soon as the door opened, looking distressed.
"I, I seem to have gotten my period..."
Liu Ting was wearing a navy-blue skirt today. Zhen Yu hadn’t paid much attention to the situation behind her earlier.
At this mont, hearing the words, Zhen Yu paused for a second, then tugged at the corner of her mouth and said, "Wait! I’ll get you sothing."
"Okay!" Liu Ting squatted obediently, watching Zhen Yu close the bathroom door.
Zhen Yu found Mrs. Zhen’s sanitary pad, handed one to Liu Ting, and had to instruct her on the spot, teaching her how to use it.
After taking care of it and leaving the bathroom, Liu Ting absolutely refused to go back into the house.
"Can you ask Duoduo if she’s leaving? If she’s not, I’ll go by myself!" Liu Ting’s embarrassed face turned red, clearly very embarrassed.
Thinking of the two boys still in the house, Zhen Yu decided to spare the recently ’grown-up’ Xiao Hei girl.
"Wait for , I’ll ask."
"Okay."
Duoduo felt stimulated, wanting to go ho early to study, so she ca out with Zhen Yu’s company.
She and Liu Ting said goodbye to Zhen Yu together, and headed ho in each other’s company.
——
After closing the main door, Zhen Yu looked down and examined herself.
Just like in her previous life at this ti, she was still flat-chested.
In her last life, she didn’t get her period until her junior year, which ant she saved quite a bit of money and grew a few more years taller.
That’s right! When the girls in junior high all started to develop curvaceous figures, she remained flat like a boy.
During those years, she actually felt a bit self-conscious, even terrified.
Because she lived in the dormitory, when all the girls around her started getting their periods, Zhen Yu was like an odd one out, often mocked and ridiculed!
Having lost her mother and not being taught, and living in such a backward small town, she even began to doubt herself, wondering if she might be a fake woman.
The reason for such a terrible association was that there was a very famous ’Yi Zi’ near Siying School.
He or she had been a ’celebrity’ since Zhen Yu was very young.
In Zhen Yu’s mory, many mischievous kids would bully him, insult him, throw stones and various trash at him.
Hence, Zhen Yu would cover herself up tightly all year round, never wearing skirts, for fear of being discovered to be different from others.
