Chapter 1460: You Are My Little Love Song (27)
Before the midterm exam, Shi Niange had studied hard for many days like everyone else. When her results came out, it could be seen that she was really working hard.
Previously, when she was in her second year of high school, her grades were only slightly above average. When she was in her third year of high school, she could understand a portion of the classes and work hard to revise with the supplementary classes. In the end, she could pass the mid-term examinations for all the subjects and obtain an overall score of nearly 100 points. The teacher was already very satisfied with her current grades and encouraged her to continue working hard. She took advantage of the time available to continue with the tutoring classes. This way, if her ranking continued to rise during the end-of-term examinations, the teacher would definitely not have let her grandfather down.
There was no doubt about Qin Siting’s results. He was still the first in the school year. It was said that he had been the first in the school year for a long time. No one could shake his position. According to Shi Niange’s observations, she found that although he would listen in class, he was not as focused as other straight A’s students. He was also not the type to lower his head and focus on his studies. He seemed to be blessed by the heavens and had a strong ability to absorb knowledge in all aspects. Furthermore, he was also very serious. He did not waste his days like other wealthy young men. His life was bright, clean, and had an accurate direction. Gradually, he seemed to become her daily target in school.
“Then, look. Compared to you, my overall score is only 185 points lower.” Shi Niange spread out her midterm results sheet in front of Qin Siting. “Last month, when you borrowed me to copy notes, I said that if I could reach the passing mark and above, and if my score is at least 50 points higher than my estimation, you should give me your phone number. Look, I’ve exceeded quite a bit.”
Qin Siting did not answer.
Although she was the one who suggested it, he didn’t say anything or agree to it.
Shi Niange had no choice but to compromise. “How about this, during the final exam, if my results are higher than thirty points, will you give me your phone number?”
Qin Siting did not look at her, as though he did not hear her.
Shi Niange didn’t want to be discouraged, but she still felt a little hurt. He clearly didn’t reject her at that time. It was only a phone number. She wouldn’t disturb him…
After the exam, it was a rare two-day weekend. Recently, the school was too tight. They could only rest for half a day on Sunday. It was rare for them to have two days off.
Zhao Xiaoqing asked Shi Niange out to shop. She wore a beautiful floral dress and held her arm as they walked. “Didn’t you do well in the exam this time? The teacher said that you ranked in the top three hundred of the school year as a new year student. You’ve already shaken off the tail of our class. Why are you still so listless? Who provoked you?”
Shi Niange forced a smile. “No, it’s probably because I’m only capable of leaving the last place in my current situation. However, I still have to admire the hundreds of people ahead. It’s really too difficult to catch up. Just thinking about it makes sense.”
“What words?”
“Students are the most tired. When they grow up, they will only be tired because of the endless responsibilities and burdens on their lives. However, when they are students, their brains and stamina are combined. They have endless homework, endless habits, and unlimited grades.”
“Tsk, haven’t you always been extroverted? Why are you suddenly depressed?” Zhao Xiaoqing smiled. “Did you fall out of love again?”
The so-called heartbreak that Zhao Xiaoqing mentioned was already the norm for Shi Niange. For example, if Qin Siting ignored her one day, or if she said something about being ignored by Qin Siting, or if Qin Siting went to the student cadres for a meeting and did not attend classes, these could be collectively called the stages of Shi Niange’s heartbreak.
“More or less.” Shi Niange sighed.
Zhao Xiaoqing couldn’t help but laugh. “Why don’t you change your target? Many boys in our class like you.”
Shi Niange did not say anything. She just lowered her head to look at her phone. The class monitor had just sent her the registration form for Monday. She had filled in the vacancy for the tuition class. She picked up her phone and began filling in the form.
In fact, Shi Niange was a very open-minded person when it came to many things. However, when it came to Qin Siting’s small and ambiguous words, she found that she was actually quite cowardly.
After filling in the form, the class monitor asked her where she was. She said she was shopping with Zhao Xiaoqing outside. The class monitor asked if she needed a man to help them carry their bags. Shi Niange smiled helplessly and replied with a ‘no.’ The class monitor was very regretful. He wished her a good time shopping and spending less money. Only then did the text message chat end.
After shopping for several hours, she did not buy much. After all, she usually wore her school uniform. She did not lack any daily clothes. There was really nothing much to buy.
Seeing that Shi Niange was listless, Zhao Xiaoqing invited her to have a chocolate donut at the dessert shop before they went home.
It was a rare two-day vacation after the midterm exam. Shi Niange was really in a bad mood. After shopping for a day, she went home and stayed at home in seclusion. Occasionally, she would call her grandfather to report her academic results or look at the learning materials that her grandfather sent her. When she had nothing to do, she would look at the human skeleton in the study room and observe the position and composition of every bone. She didn’t feel sleepy even after counting them one by one. It was as though there was something pressing on her heart. Her mind kept flashing with Qin Siting’s indifferent expression after seeing her results.
She could only blame herself for not working hard enough. She even dared to show off her mediocre results in front of him. It was already very good that she did not receive his mockery. What encouragement could she expect? He did not owe her anything, so there was really no need to give her any encouragement.
On Sunday night, Shi Niange tidied up her study materials and books. She still had to return to school tomorrow. After showering, she lay on the bed and closed her eyes. Her mind was filled with Qin Siting.
She raised her hand and knocked her head.
She should find some time to go to her grandfather’s laboratory to help for a few days so that she could be distracted.
She then recalled that she had yet to show her results to her parents. A while ago, after her parents returned to the country, they did not stay at home for more than half a month before returning to America. Right now, it was daytime in America. She got up and took a photo of her results with her phone before sending it to her parents.
A few minutes later, she went to heat up a glass of milk for herself to drink. When she heard the notification sound of her phone in the bedroom, she thought it was a message from her parents after seeing the results.
She carelessly drank the milk. After a long while, she dilly-dallied back to the bed, lifted the blanket, and was about to lie down. She then picked up her phone and casually swiped it open.
The next moment, Shi Niange’s expression fell into an unprecedented blankness. She even forgot to breathe. After regaining her composure, she took a deep breath and stared at the string of unfamiliar numbers and the message on her phone screen. There were only three cold words on it—
Qin Siting.
