Jolene felt more and more like Kaka the more she lived. Kaka studied hard to be able to play football, and only by completing her studies on time could she get into football, and Jolene also had to maintain her current grades in order to be able to dance.

Especially whenever she sees Shen Chunxiao, when she smiles like a flower but hides a knife in her smile, Qiao Lin will always sharpen her tiger teeth and secretly make up her mind - I must surpass her in all aspects!

Two or three weeks passed, and Jolene felt something was wrong. For example, when she asked Senior Sister Du Juan for advice, Shen Chunxiao would suddenly appear out of nowhere, interrupt the two of them stiffly, and pull Du Juan to see her newly bought practice clothes. If Du Juan likes it, she is willing to provide another set; for example, during training, Teacher Meng will invite everyone to eat cold drinks or something, every time Qiao Lin volunteers to buy it for everyone, and her kindness has ushered in a good popularity for her. But after Shen Chunxiao came, she always said before Qiao Lin got up: "Whatever you want to eat, I'll buy it for you!"

Faced with Shen Chunxiao's isolation of herself, Qiao Lin was half angry. Fortunately, she found that when she was angry, others were not so blind. Not everyone accepts her kindness, and of course, not everyone likes to be friends with her. In the locker room, Qiao Lin also heard some gossip about Shen Chunxiao.

Didn't she say that she had won the provincial runner-up in the Xiaohe Cup when she was in junior high school? One of my younger sisters told me that if it wasn't for Shen Chunxiao's big jump failure, they would have won the championship. She obviously doesn't have solid basic skills, so she has to rush to be in the limelight, which makes others very helpless. Tsk, her mistake made the team the runner-up, and she was embarrassed to take it out?"

"She borrows money from boys every day, and pretends to be very arrogant, this terrible vanity!"

When Jolene was very young, her parents told her not to discuss a person's rights and wrongs behind her back, so she just listened and didn't make any comments. Hearing that so many people hated Shen Chunxiao, she felt comfortable for a while. Isn't that good? Anyway, Jolene just couldn't hold back her joy.

These few monthly exams are not good or bad, anyway, there are about fifteen students in the class. Li Lanzhi firmly believes that the activities of the dance team must have affected Qiao Lin's performance to some extent, and Qiao Lin couldn't take out a stone hammer to refute her, so she had to do everything possible to raise her ranking to block her mother's nagging.

After so many years, the schedule of No. 2 Middle School has not changed, and there is no rest time at ordinary times, only two classes can be rested on Sunday afternoons. Qiao Lin seized the limited time and called Sun Ruiyang and Xu Na to the wonton shop to eliminate the problems that had accumulated for a week. In return, she would invite them to dinner at the restaurant.

Qiao Lin enthusiastically pulled Zhao Linlin to study together, but since the shift change, Zhao Linlin has been wilting and has no interest in learning. On Sundays, she can't wait to go home and surf the Internet. It is said that she is obsessed with a Korean group that has just debuted, and there are very few reports on TV, and you can only see the dynamics of the Obas from the post bar.

"But your ranking has dropped badly in these monthly exams, does it really matter?" asked Jolene worriedly.

"What does it matter? My family is not like yours, and my parents don't care about my number of grades. ”

Zhao Linlin said with a sneer, that look made Qiao Lin feel very uncomfortable. She couldn't persuade Zhao Linlin, so she had to go home and study by herself.

You must know that Zhao Linlin has always been in the top ten of her class in junior high school, and she can also be in the top 20 in the high school placement test. Once, Jolene was very envious of her easy way to get good grades, but now that feng shui is turning, Jolene overpowers her, she has emotions for herself, and Jolene is understandable.

In winter, the sea breeze in the port city begins to be bitterly cold. The wonton restaurant does not belong to the central heating area, Qiao Jianjun lit the stove early, the stove was very hot, the store was warm like spring, and several old customers couldn't help but quip: "Old Qiao, you really deserve to burn the boiler before!"

Qiao Jianjun smiled, but Qiao Lin felt very uncomfortable in his heart - the air conditioner was broken, and it was still risky to use a briquette stove, so it would be nice if he could replace it with a better air conditioner. But my parents were reluctant to buy it, and all the money they earned every month was paid off.

"Qiao Lin, what do you want?" Sun Ruiyang put his hand in front of Qiao Lin and shook it.

"No, nothing. Jolene thumped her head and said, "Where did you just go?"

"Do you understand the concept of collections?"

"Uh-huh, got it. ”

"Then you look at this multiple-choice question again and find the solution set of f(x-1)<0. Sun Ruiyang handed the exercise book in his hand to Qiao Lin.

Jolene calmed down, wrote and drew on the paper, and quickly wrote down the answer. Sun Ruiyang was full of praise: "Yes! Get smarter and smarter." ”

Xu Na also applauded: "Shibei three days, you should be impressed." ”

Jolene said modestly, "It's all thanks to you!"

Xu Na asked Sun Ruiyang a few more Olympiad questions, Sun Ruiyang spoke very seriously, and Xu Na nodded again and again. When it was time for dinner, Qiao Jianjun ordered three bowls of wontons for the three children and fried two dishes.

Sun Ruiyang asked by the way: "Uncle Qiao, can Brother Qiao Nan come back during the winter vacation?"

Qiao Jianjun said: "It's been a busy semester, but I should be able to come back for a few days, right?"

Jolene interjected: "Don't mention it, my brother only contacts us once in ten days and half a month, and we don't know what he's doing." ”

Sun Ruiyang stirred his chopsticks and said, "I hope he can come back, he left before the story of the last time was finished." ”

Xu Na asked curiously, "You children on this street seem to worship Qiao Nan very much?"

"Well, my mom said, he's the Monkey King on Huaguo Mountain!" said Jolene with a smile as she chewed on her wontons.

Sun Ruiyang continued: "Don't look at Brother Qiao Nan who doesn't talk much, but he can always lead us to play new tricks." When he was a child, there was no game console, so he took us to line up with playing cards, and the chairs and sofas at home were all mountains to be conquered. It's really boring to think about it now, but I was so obsessed with it when I was a child. ”

Sun Ruiyang remembered something funny and continued: "Brother Qiao Nan said that there is no Internet in the army, so he asked his comrades to gather a few laptops, and he downloaded a server by himself, which can play games with ten computers. They were fighting fiercely, but they didn't expect the pickets to come. As a result, they were sent to the playground in the middle of the night to run five kilometers, and their computers were confiscated. ”

Jolene listened with amusement, and then said indignantly: "Why did he tell you and not tell me?

Sun Ruiyang smiled: "I won't tell the baby anything funny, anyway, you girls don't understand the film!"

Qiao Lin put down her chopsticks and sharpened her tiger teeth, Sun Ruiyang hurriedly raised her hand and surrendered: "Just kidding! Don't take it seriously!"

Xu Na quipped: "Since you admire Brother Qiao Nan so much, then take the military academy and go to the army to find him!"

Sun Ruiyang's expression darkened and he sighed. Qiao Lin helped him and said: "It is impossible for Sun Xiucai to be admitted to the military academy, and he will not be able to pass the physical examination." ”

Xu Na was taken aback: "Are you uncomfortable there?"

Qiao Lin said quickly: "That's not it, he had surgery for heart disease when he was a child, it seems that he also had asthma, or is it some kind of lung disease? Anyway, before he went to elementary school, he couldn't do strenuous exercise, and Wei Chenglin and I accompanied him." ”

"Okay!" As if he didn't want to expose his vulnerable side to others, Sun Ruiyang interrupted Qiao Lin's words with a smile.

"Okay Sun Xiucai. Jolene picked up the bowl and drank the wonton soup in one gulp.

Xu Na was overwhelmed by the news, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry..."

Sun Ruiyang smiled: "What's there to be sorry for, it's just some experience!"

Sun Ruiyang is very delicate, and he has been covering him indoors all year round, so his skin is very white. When he doesn't wear glasses, he looks like Kenji Fujima who walked out of "Slam Dunk".

In Xu Na's impression, Sun Ruiyang is always so calm and gentle, almost never seeing his gaffe, and his gestures reveal a good upbringing. Who would have thought that he would have been seriously ill when he was a child? But he never complained, and there was a sense of ease in his eyebrows and eyes that was not commensurate with his age.

Xu Na thought about it, she had always been chic, but she inexplicably felt a trace of embarrassment.

The three children returned to school after eating, Sun Ruiyang's classroom was in the second teaching building, and his class was the first experimental class. That's right, Qiao Nan also walked out of the experimental class back then. The competition in the class is unimaginable, and it is rumored to be to the extent of "bending down to pick up a pen and never understanding math class again".

The evening self-study had not yet begun, but most of the students had already taken their seats, and the classroom was very quiet. Sun Ruiyang didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly opened a paper, and started the question seriously.

Chen Zeping walked back to the classroom at the front desk, saw Sun Ruiyang writing hard, and asked exaggeratedly: "Why did Sun Xiucai become so hardworking?"

Sun Ruiyang smiled indifferently: "I'm sorry, it's always been like this." ”

Chen Zeping put his arm on Sun Ruiyang's book, and said with bad intentions: "Yesterday's math exam, you had one more point than me, you told me the truth, did the Olympiad teacher open a small stove for you?"

Sun Ruiyang's heart was surging, he closed his eyes and calmed down for a moment, and said, "No." ”

"Hey, why are you so stingy? Say it and share it! You can't just focus on your own high grades and ignore your friends. ”

Chen Zeping's smile was full of greasy and slippery head, and Sun Ruiyang felt sick to his stomach for a while. He restrained himself for a moment and said with a smile: "I really didn't open a small stove, I can't finish the rolls issued by the teacher, where can I have time to do anything else?"

Chen Zeping was a little stupid, he turned around, and Sun Ruiyang was glad for a while - he finally got rid of him.

Unexpectedly, five minutes later, Chen Zeping actually turned his head again and showed Sun Ruiyang a table in the column. Sun Ruiyang glanced at it, and the table was divided into two columns, one column was his math score, and the other column was Chen Zeping's.

Sun Ruiyang's anger could barely be contained—how frenzied was he to remember every one of his achievements so carefully? He wanted to ask Chen Zeping: Why are you staring at others like a voyeur?

Chen Zeping's face was full of "unwilling", but there was still an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth, and he said: "Look, this is the comparison of our math scores since the second year of high school. Overall, you're about 10 points more than me, but I've beaten you three times. So we are evenly matched, it only takes one or two times for me to completely crush you! In the end, whoever goes to the province to participate in the Olympiad is really not necessarily!"

Chen Zeping's eyes were excited and hot, although he was still smiling, but this was already a clear provocation. Sun Ruiyang didn't want to bother with him, but now that it's over, he doesn't want to back down.

So, Sun Ruiyang put down the pen and smiled peacefully: "Zeping, in fact, you could have surpassed me next week, but you wasted all the opportunities." ”

"Huh?"

Sun Ruiyang said calmly: "From coming in just now, to listing the results, to the big thing you told me, no less than fifteen minutes were wasted. In these fifteen minutes, you can do about five moderately difficult multiple-choice questions with a total score of about 15 points, or you can do two large questions with a total score of 20 points. Whatever you choose to do, as long as you use those fifteen minutes, you may be able to surpass the ego by 10 points next Monday. ”

Chen Zeping's gaze became distorted, but Sun Ruiyang said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about other people's grades, take care of yourself." After all, time is your own waste. In this life, you can't expect to surpass me!"
