As for Qiao Niannian's longing, he also quietly began at the moment he left Qin Mountain.

The two of them will chat every day, voice, phone, or Qiao Niannian and Yanzhi share interesting stories about meat buns, or trivial matters between her and a few friends, or just chat with Yanzhi about what she ate today and what fun she encountered.

But in addition, Qiao Niannian didn't forget the right thing, that is, taking advantage of the winter vacation to continue tutoring, without Yanzhi by her side, Qiao Niannian spent most of her time doing questions, and when she was really puzzled, she would ask Yanzhi remotely.

This makes Yan Zhidu sometimes in a trance, Qiao Niannian is still working so hard during the holidays, does she really want to be admitted to Aurora?

Although the process of hard work was a little hard and occasionally boring, Qiao Niannian finally saw the rewards of his efforts.

In the first monthly exam in the second half of the second semester of high school, Qiao Niannian's ranking improved again, rising to the fifth place in the fifth class, although there was not much progress, but it was already rare.

Originally, when Han Qiming asked the students of Class 5 to choose seats according to their rankings at the beginning of the school year, Qiao Niannian and Yanzhi became the same table, and Han Qiming was not very satisfied, but now, he was impressed by Qiao Niannian.

In the self-study class after the results were announced, Han Qiming also went to the classroom and praised Qiao Niannian emphatically.

After school in the afternoon, Lin Ziqian, who was sitting behind Qiao Niannian and Yanzhi, couldn't help but praise her, but with some questions.

"Qiao Niannian, I have to say, you are really powerful! Your grades are like riding a rocket, can you share with me, in addition to Yanzhi to help you with tutoring, what is your secret?"

"I'm higher than you, are you panicking?" Qiao Nian said and couldn't help laughing.

As Lin Ziqian's tablemate, Qin Yueyue ruthlessly dismantled the stage and put her arm on Qiao Niannian's shoulder, "You're right, he's panicked!"

"No, I'm not panicking, I'm just just curious, I'm really convinced of your increase in speed!"

"Then I'll share it with you, in addition to the help of words, the secret is - I'm smart."

After finishing speaking, Qiao Niannian didn't care about Lin Ziqian's stunned expression, and just walked forward with Heyanzhi, after all, there is still evening self-study, so it's better to go to dinner early.

"At the same table, let's go, aren't you going to eat?" Qin Yueyue reminded and walked forward with a smile.

After Lin Ziqian came back to his senses, he immediately caught up with the three people in front of him, and he had a lot of quarrels with Qiao Niannian along the way, but in the end he still lost the quarrel.

So much so that when they were having dinner in the cafeteria, Lin Ziqian didn't talk much.

After the evening self-study, when Qiao Niannian and Yanzhi came out of the library, they met Xie Yuling, Yanzhi didn't know her, and Qiao Niannian didn't see her, but in such a wide corridor, Xie Yuling just bumped into Qiao Niannian's shoulder, and she fell.

Qiao Niannian wanted to leave, but Xie Yuling's gasping voice really couldn't be ignored, Yan Zhi still looked over, he pulled Qiao Niannian to the back, and asked, "Classmate, how are you?" You were in too much of a hurry just now, and we didn't mean to bump into you."

Xie Yuling didn't raise her head, nor did she respond to Yanzhi's words, but only let out a low throbbing sound, and after a moment of space, she said, "Can you help me, I seem to have twisted my foot."

Hearing this, Yan Zhi was slightly stunned, Qiao Niannian rushed forward with an arrow step and helped Xie Yuling up.

She immediately put on a smile and asked with great concern, "Are you okay?" Classmate, we really didn't notice you just now, after all, this corridor is so wide, are you in a hurry to go back and find something? Otherwise, why would you be so careless? Hit someone again and broke your foot?"

After Qiao Nian said this, Xie Yuling suddenly turned his head to look at her, and there was a flash of shock and fierceness in his eyes.

Immediately, Xie Yuling frowned slightly, his eyes were like water, and said, "I'm sorry, classmate, I was really in too much of a hurry, so carelessly, did it hinder you from going home?"

"Go home quickly, don't worry about me, in the end, it's because I'm in a hurry to bump into you, I'm really sorry."

Oh, the person who broke his foot apologized first? Xie Yuling, you have

Point Advanced ......

Qiao Niannian sighed secretly in her heart, still with a polite smile on her face, she said to Xie Yuling, "No, no, no, it's not your fault, but since your classmates have something that you are looking for in such a hurry, let's go in and find it, we are in the way of you, you say?"

"I'm sorry, but I do have something very important." Xie Yuling said, quietly broke away from Qiao Niannian, and after nodding his head with a smile, he turned around and limped to the study room.

Xie Yuling walked slowly, gasping from time to time, and when she walked a short distance and looked back, she found that Qiao Niannian and Yanzhi were no longer here.

"Aren't they guilty at all about ...... they just left?" Xie Yuling muttered to himself and stood up straight.

Then, she did not go to the study room, but walked back, and this footstep did not look like a stumbling foot at all.

This time she met Xie Yuling, in fact, Qiao Niannian didn't expect it, she really didn't understand what Xie Yuling wanted to do.

Along the way, when he returned home with Yanzhi, Qiao Niannian still went to see the meat bun together, and now, petting the cat is the only time for Qiao Niannian to relax every day.

The first monthly exam is over, the next time is the midterm exam, and the next time, Qiao Niannian must continue to improve, and she must reach the top ten in the whole grade, so that she can have the opportunity to participate in that national competition with Yanzhi.

That time, she was hit hard by Xie Yuling, but this time, Qiao Niannian will definitely stand with Yanzhi.

Studying with Qiao Niannian every day, Yanzhi actually found out that Qiao Niannian was desperate, especially in recent times, Qiao Niannian would always yawn while writing topics, and Yanzhi cared about her even more.

On this day, when he left the library, he said to Qiao Niannian, "Qiao Niannian, in fact, learning in this aspect also needs to be gradual, and we still have a year to take the college entrance examination, you really don't have to work so hard."

"Huh? I know there's still more than a year to take the college entrance examination, but I really don't have to work hard." Qiao Nian said, but couldn't help but yawn.

"Did you come home recently and do the questions again? When are they all closed? If you look at the way you look now, you must not have rested well......

"It's okay, as long as my grades in the midterm exam can be in the top ten of the whole grade, the hard work is worth it!" Qiao Nian said, his expression was very determined.

Looking at such an energetic girl, Yan Zhi was a little distressed, and couldn't help laughing, he touched Qiao Niannian's round brain, and still asked, "Why do you have to do it next time?" Why do you have to work so hard?"

Qiao Niannian stopped, looked at Yan Zhi seriously, and said, "It's very simple, because I want to be side by side with you!" I want to participate in various competitions with you."

"Moreover, if I want to be admitted to Aurora's School of Design, in the third year of high school, I still need to spend half a semester to train for the art examination, and I don't have enough time left."

...... the unified examination training for art, he sighed secretly that he had forgotten about it.

He couldn't help but feel even more sorry for Qiao Niannian, "Niannian, but what you need to at least ensure is to rest well, if you keep being in this state, you may make a mistake in the midterm exam in a week."

Well, it seems that what Yan Zhi said also makes some sense, Qiao Niannian still nodded.

Later, she did listen to the advice of the words and began to increase her rest time.

Perhaps it was hard work and the blessing of a good attitude, after the midterm exam, Qiao Niannian really improved again, and she became the second in the fifth class and the tenth in the whole grade.

Not long after the results of the midterm exam came out, Han Qiming really found Qiao Niannian and Yan Zhi to talk alone.

"Qiao Niannian, Yanzhi, calling the two of you over, in fact, there is a more important thing, recently the National Middle School Physics Championship has begun, the students in the third year of high school must not have time to participate, our school is ready to send the top ten students of the second year of high school to participate in the team, in our class, it is the two of you, the first in the overall grade and the tenth in the whole grade."

Qiao Niannian just nodded, and there were not too many waves, as far as he had participated in various kinds of schools before

game, so it's also very calm.

Seeing this, Han Qiming was a little uncalm, and he continued, "The school is going to be grouped according to the ranking, 12.34.56.78.910, probably according to this law."

"Teacher Han, actually, I have a question, why do you have to follow the ranking? The strongest ones are definitely the first and second, and among the rest of the people, there are fewer people who have a chance of winning, and this grouping is not very reasonable."

"This is not the group I am into, this is the group decided by Director Gao, and calling the two of you today is also a notice, understand?"

"Got it, Mr. Han." He replied and didn't say much.

Qiao Niannian was about to refute, but before she could speak, Han Qiming's phone rang, and as a result, after Han Qiming picked up the phone, he had been calling for so long.

This was a recess, until the bell rang for class, and Han Qiming didn't come back after calling, Qiao Niannian and Yanzhi could only run back to the classroom quickly.

Regarding this grouping, Qiao Niannian didn't have time to give some advice to Director Gao, and finally Yan Zhi was in a group with Xie Yuling, and she formed a group with Han Qi, the ninth place in the whole grade.

Although he did not become Yanzhi's personal partner, he still made progress, that is, this time, Qiao Niannian could go to the competition with Yanzhi.

In this way, there seems to be nothing wrong with it.

In the later stages of preparing for the competition, Qiao Niannian and her partner, Yanzhi and Xie Yuling all communicated closely.

The night before departure, Qiao's mother knew that Qiao Niannian and Yanzhi needed to set off together to compete the next day, so she specially prepared a lot of things for the two of them and put them in their backpacks that night.
