Chapter 94: So Fragrant, So Pink

“Cheng Ming, thank you for your kind words, but I still decided not to come back for the midterm.”

“For one thing, it’s a waste of time, and for another, my grades are already lousy, and I haven’t read a book in two months, so isn’t it torturing myself to go take the test? Thirdly, I don’t want to beg the teacher either.”

Cheng Ming’s repeated persuasion was fruitless, Zhao Lei still decided not to participate in the examination.

Cheng Ming just hoped that Zhao Lei could finish what he started and leave no regrets.

Even a registered zero is better than dropping out of school in absentia, and at least there’s a diploma to remember.

“I don’t need a midterm score to go to a technical school or junior college anyway, right?”

It’s true that there’s less need for midterm scores, and even the schools that do need them do so in name only, with a little money slipped in at best.

“But you must go back to school this fall, and start looking for a school this summer, and I’ll help you.”

This was Cheng Ming’s last insistence, even if the students of technical schools and junior colleges were mixed with clouds and dragons.

But school is school, and you can still learn if you want to.

It was impossible to sell hang-ups for the rest of your life, Cheng Ming knew this fact better than anyone else.

So he’s still honestly taking the middle school exams, then the college entrance exams, then the university.

It’s both enjoying life and giving your life away.

Even if Zhao Lei seemed to be stepping into society early now.

But he is far from being exposed to the dark side of society.

Most of the users who buy plug-ins are teenagers, and even young people don’t have much of a city.

Zhao Lei left the provincial city last week and ran to the next city to sell plug-ins, he planned to sell all the activation codes on his head or run through a few nearby cities before coming back, which was expected to be around the middle of July.

Since Cheng Ming left his private qq number in the class directory on the class, his friends gradually more and more, but not more than a few is it.

Friend avatars are basically gray, students with computers at home are still in the minority, and those who can access the Internet at will like him are even more rare.

A netizen with the nickname “Gong Zheng Yu Mo” applied to add him as a friend, and his avatar was an octave box surrounded by musical notes.

It’s kinda an old-fashioned and ancient nickname, with a Mary Sue flavor mixed in with the middle-aged atmosphere coming through.

Without the slightest hesitation, Cheng Ming directly nodded his refusal.

Another work qq flashed up again.

“Ignore me for a second, quickly! Ignore me and I’ll just call you at home and say strange things.”

It was a message from Wen Wen Buya, the younger sister of Senior Brother Wen, Cheng Ming still didn’t know what her real name was and didn’t deliberately ask.

“I’m busy, big sister.”

“Busy and still have time to reply to me? Who am I kidding, do you really think I don’t know you’re hanging out in stealth playing on the computer?”

A very difficult person to deal with and an internet wastrel, the kind that hates being online all day long, doesn’t she have to study and take tests?

Moreover, Cheng Ming was really afraid that she would call and talk nonsense, and it was not possible to ignore her.

“I’m busy studying… I’m just taking the time to look at the computer.”

“Study? You still need to study? Lying without a more plausible excuse, what other knowledge is there in middle school that could be difficult for you?”

“The memorization still takes time.”

“Don’t read, reading a dead end, you read is not to make money, you come to our studio together to make big money, when the dashing hacker, and the magic city this side of a lot of beautiful young lady, wearing a super short skirt oh.”

How many times had Wun Wun compelled him to stop studying and go to the Magic City?

Can’t remember, it comes up in almost every conversation.

“If you define reading as learning in school is too superficial, nowadays technology changes so fast, if you don’t pay attention a little bit, you will fall behind the times, do you really think that you can keep on doing plug-ins? Now it’s the big game makers who haven’t gotten off the ground yet, and our little hustle hasn’t fallen into their eyes yet.”

“But sooner or later we will get into a fight over the big cake, the road is high, the devil is high, every upgrade of the anti-externalization technology unexpectedly means we have to open up a new path. In the end, they will even take legal weapons to sanction us, and under the hammer of justice, we can only scatter in all directions and even face jail time.”

Cheng Ming had made his words clear, a small dose of precaution.

“You’re just a junior high school kid brother, what qualifications do you have to educate me, so angry! So angry!”

Gentleman sent a series of fuming angry emojis.

“Why can you write that kind of code! It’s so tempting to dig out your head and see how it’s different from other people’s heads, and whether a flower has grown out of it!”

Slightly creepy.

“Anyway, I’m off to study, so good luck with our new hangout.”

In the meantime, Gong Shang Yu Mo sent another friend request, which Cheng Ming once again rejected.

The keyboard was covered by a petite shadow, Cheng Ming turned around and looked at his squirming sister.

Cheng Ming plopped up his right leg and asked, “What’s wrong? Is there something you’re begging me for? Is it that you want me to help you review.”

It seems like my sister’s Jr. High exams are coming up.

Cheng Li shook Cheng Ming’s arm and asked, “Brother, can you not stay in Fifth Middle School for high school?”

“The senior high school in the fifth grade is no longer accepting new students this year, and from now on it will be exclusively about junior high school, so I couldn’t stay even if I wanted to.”

Fifth belongs to the junior high school to do still make do, high school a pool of dead water in the province of the second standard school, will occasionally emerge one or two students on the heavy, as for the students of Qingbei one are not.

On the basis of the faculty strength of the senior high school alone, No. 5 Middle School may not even be as good as No. 3 Middle School. There are too few senior high school teachers, and the enrollment is limited, which to a certain extent also restricts the development of the senior high school.

However, No. 5 Middle School is better than No. 3 Middle School in terms of learning environment. Students who cannot get into No. 1 and No. 2 Middle School will consider No. 5 and No. 9 Middle School, and finally No. 3 Middle School.

“What if I use this?” Cheng Li said as he took out his wish coupon.

“Wish Tickets aren’t everything.”

Cheng Li pouted and said, “Che, really useless, obviously said that any wish can be realized, but it turned out that no wish can be realized.”

“You could ask me to buy you something to eat, or a more tangible wish like asking me to go out with you.”

“It’s a waste to use it all at once, I’m going to use it on something more meaningful.”

Cheng Li hid the wishing coupon and flung himself onto the bed.

“It was supposed to be a disposable prop.”

Cheng Li, who was lying on the bed, wiggled his calves and pillowed his arms and asked, “Brother, why am I three years behind you, two years behind, can’t I be one year behind?”

“You’ll have to ask Mom and Dad about that, it’s not up to me.”

“Aren’t there any other schools that have middle school and high school together? Obviously all elementary schools are six years long, and middle and high schools combined are also six years long, and how nice to have them together, when they’re all called middle schools.”

“There are definitely some, and quite a few, but our city is out of them.”

Cheng Li rolled over on the bed and ended up running headlong into the book Cheng Ming had thrown on the bed.

“It hurts.”

“Are some of these the middle school textbooks?” Cheng Li casually picked up a book and asked.

“Yeah, you can read it if you’re interested, the textbook shouldn’t be changed.”

Cheng Li rolled his eyes and said, “The books are all so new, like they’ve just been issued, did you really read properly, brother?”

“This is me keeping it well.” Cheng Ming said in a pale and feeble explanation.

“But there are no notes in the book whatsoever, just the name on the first page.”

“I have it all in my head.”

Sharp-eyed Cheng Li found a pink envelope in the crevice between the books, drew it out, and put it on the tip of his nose to smell it.

So fragrant, so powdery, it’s definitely what’s known as a love letter!

Cheng Li picked up the envelope and slapped his palm, questioning with a black face, “Brother, what is this?”

“Eh, that one is ……”

Cheng Ming’s head broke out in a cold sweat and he panicked.

Damn, I forgot to put it away, and I can’t believe my sister turned it over.

No, why is he panicking? It’s not like it’s a love letter, even if it is.
