Chapter XXVIII

An unknown writer once said, "The final exam is the most murderous enemy of mankind in adolescence!" Regardless of whether there is really such a writer, whether this writer has said such things or not, this sentence is still applicable to most people, especially to Chubby Fangyuan, the drummer of the Hot Wheels Band of Zhiyuan Middle School.

After reading all the notes compiled by Lin Zhiyi, Xiaopang went to the fortune teller again and asked for a pass in the exam.

"Classmate, you have begged God so many times, God is a little impatient!" The fortune teller looked at the little fat man in front of him, every time he came to ask him to tell a fortune, he was so pious, he couldn't slaughter him well, I was sorry for the ancestor of this line.

"Master, what am I going to do? Can you help me plead with the Immortals? Chubby nervously asked, Chubby's grandmother believes in Buddhism, and his mother believes in Jesus, he has no specific religious beliefs, but he would rather believe in the gods he encounters than in them.

"This." The fortune teller pretended to be mysterious and said, "It's not impossible, but I don't know if your intentions are sincere enough, classmate?" ”

"Master, my heart has always been the most pious."

"Okay. Then I'll give you this must-pass charm this time. The fortune teller took out a red sigil from his pocket, and a Chinese knot was used to make a pendant on it.

"Wow, master, this one looks much more advanced than the previous ones!" Chubby held the talisman in his hand and looked at it carefully.

"One hundred, classmate!" The fortune teller spreads out the palm of his left hand.

"Ah, isn't it usually only twenty?"

"Classmates, sincerity is spirituality! Sincerity is spirituality! ”

Under the emphasis of the fortune teller, Xiaopang still obediently offered his own RMB in exchange for this must-pass charm.

The results of the final exams of Zhiyuan Middle School students will be scrolled on the school's large LED screen in turn. The first place in the first year of high school is still Lin Zhiyi. Even when he took the next few exams, he slept for a long time. These days, composing music for Senior Sister Yang Xichen has consumed too much of his energy.

He endured his sleepiness and huddled in the open space in front of the LED screen with his classmates, not to see the rankings he expected, but to see the results of the rest of the band.

Qian Wenwen's ranking is just a few places behind him, and she is worthy of the girl he admires, just by sorting out a knowledge point, her grades have improved a lot. It seems that I can still be in one class next semester.

As for Zeppelin, a guitarist who doesn't like rote memorization, he also spent a lot of effort to learn English this time, and he can be regarded as maintaining his ranking in the top class.

Chubby looked at the trio of school tyrants and was envious. The names and grades on the screen had already turned several pages, but he still hadn't seen his name, and the must-pass charms in his palms had been sweating.

"Little fat man, look, you're one hundred and eighty!" The sharp-eyed Zeppelin saw Fang Yuan's name in the lower right corner of the LED screen!

One hundred and eighty students, which is exactly the top 80 percent of the more than 200 students in the first year of high school, are not among the eliminated.

"Wow! Thank God! Thank God! Chubby hugged Zeppelin tightly, and the two happily jumped in circles.

Qian Wenwen is also happy that everyone can still form a band together.

Only Lin Zhiyi still looked sad.

"Did you see Yuan Shanshan's name?"

Lin Zhiyi stared at the name on the LED again and scrolled from the beginning, but still didn't see Yuan Shanshan, and after the exam, he went out of his way to ask Yuan Shanshan how he did in the exam, and she clearly said that it was not a big problem. Why didn't you even get a name on the list?

Seeing Lin Zhiyi's anxiety, the corners of Qian Wenwen's mouth lost a smile. In fact, she hopes that Yuan Shanshan will leave Zhiyuan Middle School and return to Hope Middle School, which is more suitable for her. The lead singer in the band, she can't be concurrent. Once, before her parents divorced, she also went to learn vocal music with a teacher at the conservatory.

In terms of singing, she felt that she was no worse than Yuan Shanshan, but Lin Zhi refused to give her this opportunity.

"The extremely poor students in our class are not on it." Excited, Xiaopang re-read the names on the LED screen several times and found that not all the classmates were on it.

Lin Zhi also calculated that the number of missing students was exactly the number of extremely poor students in the whole grade. He couldn't wait to say hello to the rest of the band, so he went to the first-year teacher's office in the administration building to find the homeroom teacher, Mr. Wang, to ask Yuan Shanshan's results.

"Teacher Wang, how are Yuan Shanshan's grades in our class?"

"Why didn't she ask herself?" Teacher Wang did not directly answer Lin Zhiyi's question, for these borrowed students who want to come to middle school, the school actually does not really care about their grades, and the so-called elimination system is just to make the face project more credible.

Naturally, these teachers would not talk much to the students, but this time Yuan Shanshan's results made him impressed. I didn't expect this extremely poor student, who usually only sleeps in class, to be quite attentive to studying.

"I am the class president, and I have the right to care about my classmates!"

"Lin Zhiyi! You still know that you are the class leader of the first class! In the past half month, have you listened well to your classes? ”

"Nope."

Teacher Wang sighed and said, "The teacher knows that you are smart, and you already know a lot of knowledge. But since you are sitting in the classroom and studying, you should do your duty as a student, listen carefully to the class, and respect the teacher! Your grandfather is an old judge of the Zhucheng Court, if he knows that you neglect your studies like this and ignore your teacher, what do you think he will think of you, the only grandson. ”

In the face of Teacher Wang's accusation, Lin Zhi was speechless, "Teacher Wang, I'm here to ask you about Yuan Shanshan's grades." ”

"You!" It turned out that Mr. Wang said those tirades, this kid didn't listen to a word, such a proud and arrogant student, no one in his eyes, if he didn't change this bad temper when he was young, he would suffer a big loss in the society in the future.

No matter how deep his family background is, he is just a middle-class person who deals with the letter of the law.

"Lin Zhiyi, you won't be the class president next semester, let the deputy class president concurrently serve, you can do your band with peace of mind."

Hearing Teacher Wang say this, even Lin Zhi didn't care about the title of class president, but he was called class president for a semester by his classmates, and he was removed like this, he still felt a little lost. But compared to this, he is now more concerned about Yuan Shanshan's results.

"Okay. Mr. Wang. What about Yuan Shanshan's grades in our class? ”

"You're not a squad leader anymore, why do you care about this?"

"As her classmate, I have an obligation to care!"

Teacher Wang couldn't resist him, and he was about to go to the grade summary meeting, so he was no longer embarrassed by Lin Zhiyi, and said truthfully, "Don't worry, your band won't break up yet!" ”

Yuan Shanshan's grades ranked more than 90 in the grade this time, and he was the first among the extremely poor students, and he could continue to study in the top class.

Seeing Yuan Shanshan's achievements, Lin Zhiyi showed an aunt-like smile.

At noon, he and the members of the band celebrated the achievement of all the students in the cafeteria, and the dismissal of his squad president had long been forgotten by him.

Until the end of school in the evening, Master Ma appeared at the school gate in Mr. Lin's white Bentley.

He knew that Mr. Lin must be sitting behind the glass in the back row with a stinky face.

"Teacher Wang is too unkind, right, you have to tell your parents about this kind of thing?" Before getting into the car, he muttered a whisper complaining that Mr. Wang was making a small report behind his back.

But as soon as I got in the car and saw my father, it was like encountering a rest on a stave, and I suddenly fell silent. The air conditioner on the Bentley was quiet and warm, but the hearts of the Lin family and his son were still filled with cold.

Mr. Lin has tolerated Lin for a long time since he was in high school, and at home, Mrs. Lin always pointed fingers at him when he had to discipline the child.

As a father, he needs to educate his son in his own way!

"Lin Zhiyi, tell me why Teacher Wang removed you from the position of class president."

"He is the head teacher, the power is in his hands, how do I know what he thinks in his heart." Knowing that Mr. Wang must have reported his performance in class in the past few days to Mr. Lin, he is still a dead duck with a hard mouth.

"You don't know, who knows!" Mr. Lin suddenly raised his voice, usually he always spoke in a sven manner, looking like a high-level intellectual, but this time he was really angry.

Lin Zhi didn't dare to say more.

"Why don't you study hard in class! What music to write! Are you going to live on music in the future? ”

"I know what the teacher said in class, there's nothing to hear!"

"Then from the next semester, give me a starting view! Learn the knowledge of university first! There are also weekends to attend IELTS training classes to prepare for going abroad! ”

Mr. Lin gave Lin little room for negotiation.

"I didn't say I would be a lawyer in the future!" Lin Zhiyi whispered.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing."

Lin Zhiyi had not resisted this family vision imposed on him before, but as a member of the Lin family, this was a path that he had no choice, and if he gave up, it would mean that the resources and status of the legal profession accumulated by the Lin family for several generations would face the situation of being disintegrated by other families.

This is his mission when he enjoys the favorable material conditions and superior social status brought to him by the Lin family.

This is also the reason why he has to go to school, he doesn't need those mathematics, physics and chemistry knowledge that he can't use a few times in his life, but he needs excellent academic qualifications to open the door to the country's top political science and law universities.

Of course, Lin Zhiyi will not give up his dream because of this, at least, at present, the two are not in conflict.

However, Mr. Lin does not like Lin Zhiyi to spend his time on music, as a top lawyer in Zhucheng, time is money, and it would be a waste to spend his life on things that cannot bring him benefits.

"Starting tomorrow, don't touch the music anymore. When you have a holiday, you can read at home with peace of mind. Mr. Lin ordered.

"I can't do it, Dad. Music is as important to me as life! ”

"Then stay at home and don't go anywhere until you do!"
