Chapter 296 The Sea
Two days after entering school, there is the entrance exam. In fact, the entrance exam is not important, and the school attaches no more importance to it than ordinary weekly exercises.

But for Li Zhuangsheng, this exam is an important test to verify whether Hu Mengdie has "recovered".

Because he had not slacked off during the winter break, Li Zhuangsheng became more and more adept at answering the questions. This was a big improvement compared to the first time he took the exam after his rebirth when he was completely clueless.

"The exams are finally over. The day after tomorrow will be the junior college entrance exam intensive month..."

In the empty classroom on the fifth floor of the Art Building, Li Zhuangsheng sighed. It had been three days since they first came here, and the opening exams were over.

At that time, the college entrance examination model in Jiangsu was very different from that in other provinces. Li Zhuangsheng was in the political history class, so the small college entrance examination required four minor subjects: physics, chemistry, biology and geography. These four minor subjects did not count for scores and were only divided into four levels: ABCD.

If you get an A in the college entrance examination, you can get one extra point. If you get 4 As, you can get five extra points. But if you get a D, you can't apply for a regular undergraduate degree, which almost means you'll have no chance of getting into university.

Previously, Li Zhuangsheng had been making up for his math and English studies. He had hardly studied these minor subjects, except for listening to them in class last semester. Biology and geography were okay, but physics and chemistry were extremely painful to learn.

With only one month left before the junior college entrance examination, Li Zhuangsheng couldn't help but feel a little worried. He couldn't count on getting an A, but he was afraid of getting a D.

"I heard that you won't take Chinese, math, or English anymore, just the minor subjects you need to take the exams." Zhu Zhixue said nonchalantly, unaware of Li Zhuangsheng's worries.

She was not clear about Li Zhuangsheng's true strength in the minor subjects, but she felt that after a month of intensive training, most people would be able to get a grade above C, so Li Zhuangsheng would definitely have no problem.

"Yes, it's a headache!" Li Zhuangsheng sighed.

"Didn't the teacher say that there will be no problem! No one in the Sunshine Class has ever gotten a D! And my regular exams are much harder than the junior college entrance exams, so don't worry!"

This is the case for most people, but... it should be OK for me, right?

There was no minor subject in the study plan that Lin Yuehua had made for him. She had said casually that he would be able to catch up after a month of intensive training. But confidence comes from strength, and what he lacks most now is strength.

Li Zhuangsheng remembers that he was 3B1C back then, but now... believe Lin Yuehua!
"Oh, I almost forgot to tell you, the new book has been written and the editor has also been arranged." Li Zhuangsheng smiled and turned on the computer. "Do you want to take a look first?"

Zhu Zhixue leaned closer in surprise and delight: "So fast? Didn't you say a few days ago that it would take some time?"

Li Zhuangsheng smiled and said: "Novels need inspiration. I didn't have any inspiration at that time. But later, inspiration came, and it was natural and fast."

Zhu Zhixue and Li Zhuangsheng exchanged seats and carefully browsed the novel manuscript.

The plot of this novel is very simple. It tells the story of an ordinary, lonely and slightly immature boy who meets a lively and cheerful girl.

Zhu Zhixue grinned, because the girl's name was Zhu Zhimei.

The article describes a timid boy who always feels inferior and self-doubt when facing a lively and beautiful girl, which makes him afraid to face the girl's feelings and thus hesitate to move forward. However, the girl still approaches him every day, wrestles with him, gives him lollipops, and takes the initiative to form a group with the boy when he is alone in the free grouping in physical education class... Just when the boy has gradually gotten used to the girl and his personality has gradually become more cheerful, the girl has to transfer schools due to family changes.

The day before the transfer, the girl found the boy alone and told him the reason for approaching him. It turned out that the boy had saved the girl a long time ago, so this time it was the girl's turn to save the boy. The boy was very surprised and regretted that he did not recognize the girl. But the girl did not blame the boy, but made an agreement with him to go to Xiamen University together in the future. Because she heard that the sea in Xiamen is very beautiful. She likes the sea very much, and she hopes to be buried in the sea after she dies in the future.

"Don't forget me again. Be sure to recognize me next time we meet."

Before leaving, the girl smiled and said her last words, and she never appeared again. From then on, the boy studied very hard, but unfortunately he still failed to get into Xiamen University, so he set a new goal to at least get into Xiamen University as a graduate student.

He thought that the girl was so pretty, she must have had a boyfriend in college. However, he wanted to fulfill his promise with the girl. He wanted to see her and say "long time no see" naturally. Perhaps it was because of the regret last time, he wanted to prove that he would not forget her again. He also wanted to say thank you to the girl for lighting a light in his dark world.

Finally, the boy was admitted to Xiamen University as a graduate student as he wished. He stepped into the new campus with trepidation. He didn’t know whether the girl was there. Maybe she didn’t come to Xiamen University, or maybe she had graduated and left.

The boy wandered aimlessly around the campus all day until dark. He sat alone by the sea, looking at the waves, feeling melancholy, when suddenly someone covered his eyes from behind, and a familiar voice rang in his ears:

"Guess who I am?"

Zhu Zhixue read it silently and then became a little dazed.

"What's wrong?" Li Zhuangsheng patted her hands.

Zhu Zhixue finally woke up from her dream, then buried her face in his arms silently, her eyes red.

"Xiamen University is very difficult." Zhu Zhixue said softly.

She once told Li Zhuangsheng in class that she most wanted to go to Xiamen University. Of course, that was just a common daydream during adolescence, and she was just joking.

She really wanted to go, but she knew she couldn't pass the entrance exam. That was a 985 university, and even Lin Yuehua didn't dare to guarantee it.

"If you work hard, you may be able to get into the graduate school there. Young people, dare to dream!" Li Zhuangsheng said with a smile.

"Being a postgraduate student is also difficult..." Zhu Zhixue was silent for a long time, then slowly spoke, "But it is indeed easier than the college entrance examination. Let's go to Xiamen University together. I want to see the sea there."

"Well, I often hear people say that it is the most beautiful university. I want to go and see it, too."

Li Zhuangsheng agreed with a smile. Although the possibility was slim, as long as he worked hard, there should be a chance. It would not be 0.

"Thank you for letting me be your heroine." Zhu Zhixue smiled while biting her lip.

"You are my heroine." Li Zhuangsheng kissed her on the forehead.

It seems that Zhu Zhixue is very satisfied with this story. That's great, Li Zhuangsheng also likes this one very much. At least, it's good enough to show it to her.
