Chapter 6: The Secret of Being Tall

"That's great!" Gu Senxi said, "Remember to play with me in the future!" ”

"By the way, what class are you in?" Qiao Guoqiang asked.

"I'm in class ten, what about you?"

"I'm in Class Six!"

"You study liberal arts, huh?" Gu Senxi said strangely: "I thought you were studying science." ”

"I remember telling you." Qiao Guoqiang and Gu Senxi walked out of the bathroom and walked towards the teaching building.

"Oh..." Gu Senxi remembered it at this time, as if he had told him.

I have to say that the quality of teaching in Shanghai is really good. The pace of study is very fast, and I can't wait to finish all the content in one semester, and then set aside a year and a half to prepare for the college entrance examination.

In the days of school, Qiao Guoqiang had a pretty good time.

The course of the second year of high school is too simple for Qiao Guoqiang. Well, except for the math...

Algebra, to be exact.

Solid geometry is like a play for him, but algebra really can't.

I downloaded the knowledge points from the Internet, and then slowly understood the principles, and then spent time calculating various formulas and theorems.

Where he can't, he will let Gu Senxiang help him explain.

Anyway, they would meet in that training building on the weekends. Gu Senxiang is going to learn English on the weekend, and Qiao Guoqiang is going to teach the Japanese to learn Chinese.

After nearly three weeks of continuous study of mathematics, Qiao Guoqiang finally understood all the knowledge points of mathematics in his second year of high school at the end of September.

Dozens of years old, compared with these students, the biggest advantage is the ability to summarize.

On the third weekend, Qiao Guoqiang and Gu Senxiang had lunch at a restaurant near the Education Building.

Since transferring to No. 3 Middle School, because of the relationship between classmates, the three of them have naturally gotten closer.

"Qiangzi, what did you report for the school fall sports meeting next weekend?" Gu Senxi asked

"What can be the gold content of a school sports meeting?" Qiao Guoqiang said indifferently, "I reported a 3,000-meter report, a discus, and then a 400-meter relay." ”

"Wow, three thousand meters!" At the same time that Gu Senxi was surprised, Gu Senxiang's eyes widened, "Three thousand meters? ”

"It's a little funny!" Qiao Guoqiang said: "I run five kilometers every night, and then go home to take a shower and go to bed. ”

"Running at night?" Gu Senxiang asked with some disbelief, "Where is it?" ”

Qiao Guoqiang smiled, blinked and said, "On the road!" ”

"There are so many cars at night, and you still come out for a run?"

"Without a good body, how can you carry the heavy senior year of high school?" Qiao Guoqiang said.

"What did you report?" Qiao Guoqiang asked rhetorically.

Gu Senxi said: "I reported a 1000m and a 200m. After speaking, he asked, "Sister, what did you report?" ”

"Two hundred and four hundred, and a women's four-by-four relay." Gu Senxiang replied.

"Oh, that's a bit expensive." Qiao Guoqiang raised his hand at the waiter, "Another beef." ”

"Hey, you order so much?" Gu Senxi asked, "Can you finish eating?" ”

"I can't eat it," Qiao Guoqiang looked at their sister and brother and said with a wicked smile, "You two help me eat..."

"Good! Helping others is the foundation of happiness. Gu Senxi nodded again and again, and said to Qiao Guoqiang, "I'm happy to help you!" ”

"But my sister..." He looked at Gu Senxiang, "She loves beauty too much, she definitely can't help you much, I'll eat her share too." ”

A plate of beef came up, and Qiao Guoqiang and Gu Senxi began to solve it rhythmically.

"Qiangzi, are you growing your body?" Gu Senxiang looked at Qiao Guoqiang's shoulders and said, "I found that your shoulders are a little higher than when we first met. ”

"It's a long one." Qiao Guoqiang nodded and admitted. "I'm 179 now, and my goal is to grow another 10 centimeters."

"Oh!" Gu Senxi said: "Then you don't want to grow to 1.9 meters?" Do you want to play basketball? ”

"Who said you have to play basketball to grow taller?" Qiao Guoqiang asked rhetorically, "Do I need to be reduced to going to a sports school with my grades?" ”

Gu Senxiang took a sip of juice and said very approvingly, "I have seen your admission results in the Academic Affairs Office, as long as there are no accidents, it will not be a problem to take a 211 exam." ”

"There are a lot of benefits to being tall." Qiao Guoqiang smiled evilly and said, "For example, the legs are relatively long, and when kicking people, they will have a great advantage." ”

"Kicking someone?" Gu Senxiang frowned, "Are you here to fight with someone?" ”

"It's not a fight, it's a game!" Qiao Guoqiang said: "In taekwondo competitions or sanda competitions, long legs are advantageous. ”

"Our school, but Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon..." Qiao Guoqiang ate the last piece of beef and said with a smile on the tea. "There are several winners in the Olympiad alone." He looked at Gu Senxiang, "You are one of them." ”

"I'm not very good at math..."

"So, I want to be steady!" Qiao Guoqiang explained: "Shanghai is a municipality directly under the central government, and I only need to get the top three in the city-level sanda or taekwondo competitions, and I can add 20 points. ”

"Oh~" Gu Senxi suddenly said, "Are you here to add points to the college entrance examination?" ”

"Uh-huh!" Qiao Guoqiang was calm.

"Although the children of the Three Gorges immigrants can get five extra points, it is not enough to make up for my math shortcomings."

"Did you hear that!?" Gu Senxiang nodded his brother's head, "Learn from others, and you will know how to play every day." ”

"Okay~Sister~" Gu Senxi complained, "You don't always compare me with others, okay?" ”

The three of them took their bags and walked towards the Education Building.

"Hey, Hadron." Gu Senxi asked, "Do you have any secret to growing up so fast?" ”

"Yes!"

"What?" Gu Senxi urged curiously, "Tell me about it..."

Qiao Guoqiang looked at Gu Senxi, and asked a little strangely, "You are all 1.8 meters, do you still want to grow?" ”

"Who thinks they're too tall?" Gu Senxi said.

"You just go with the flow!" Qiao Guoqiang glanced at Gu Senxiang next to him, "Just look at your sister and brother, your family's genetics must be very good, otherwise your sister and brother will not grow up so fast." ”

"I'm different." Qiao Guoqiang said with some complaints: "I am from the Three Gorges in eastern Sichuan, and the people in that place are not tall. My dad is only 1.7 meters and my mom is less than 1.6 meters. I was able to grow to more than 1.7 meters at the age of 16, which is already a blessing for growing up in the city. ”

"Every day after recess, I do 100 pull-ups on the horizontal bar at school, and then I swim in the swimming pool twice a week, and I have to swim 3,000 meters each time."

"After lunch, I would play basketball with my classmates for half an hour."

"In the afternoon, I will jump rope a thousand times between classes."

Every time he said the same thing, Gu Senxi's face turned white once, and in the end, he simply begged, "Don't say it, don't say it." ”

Gu Senxi looked at Qiao Guoqiang as if he was looking at a monster. "You're done with this, and you're going to run 5 kilometers every night?"

"If I had been swimming that day, I wouldn't have done it!"

Hearing this, Gu Senxi breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise he would have been frightened.

"After swimming, I'll do massage, and then go home and practice sanda for an hour." Qiao Guoqiang said

"I can't learn this from you." Gu Senxi waved his hand, "Just going to the swimming pool twice a week, my mother will never give me this money." Not to mention Sanda, as soon as my mother heard that it was a fight, she absolutely refused on the spot. ”

He was a little envious and said, "It's good that you can make money yourself." ”
