Chapter 252 Put it in my pocket
After the evening self-study get out of class on Tuesday, the whole school began to set up the examination room, accompanied by the creaking sound of chairs being moved throughout the teaching building.
"Everyone, remember to clear the desks. Turn all the tables around. Put the first and fourth groups against the wall. Connect all the seats in the middle together..."
"Put your books and sundries here, don't throw them everywhere, clean up the garbage on your seat..."
As the class monitor, Fang was moving seats for himself while also organizing everyone to set up the examination room.
In fact, there is not much to do. After all, it is not a real college entrance examination, and the extra desks will not be moved outside. Except for the examination time, you still have to stay in your own classroom to study.
At the back of the classroom, Fang Wei went to the office to get some newspapers and spread them flat on the ground as a cushion. Everyone's books that had been left in the classroom were temporarily piled up on the ground.
When Fang Wei finished arranging the layout of his class and came out of the classroom, Xu Cailing and Liu Zhiyi were already waiting for him in the corridor outside with their schoolbags on their backs.
"Is it done?"
"Yeah, you guys so fast?"
"We are not the squad leaders, so just take care of our own business!"
The three of them got together and walked along the campus road towards the school gate. Along the way, they passed the second and third grade teaching buildings in front of them. The second and third grade students were also setting up the examination room, but unlike the excitement of the first grade students, the second and third grade students seemed to take the monthly exam very lightly, especially the third grade students. After setting up the examination room, many students still stayed in the classroom to study, and would not go back until the dormitory was about to close.
Liu Zhiyi's schoolbag was bulging and visibly heavy. The taut backpack straps were tight on the girl's delicate shoulders, and even her loose school uniform was stretched tight, revealing the considerable curve of her chest.
"Zhiyi, you wouldn't have brought back all the books in the classroom, would you?" Fang Wei said as he lifted her heavy schoolbag.
"Yeah, I don't want to put all the books on the floor..."
What is a true book lover? Probably just like this! I was convinced.
"Okay, that's perfect. If I want to read at home, I'll read your book."
"No, I won't lend it to you."
"I force myself to look."
Compared with Liu Zhiyi, Xu Cailing's schoolbag is much emptier. The weight of her and Fang Wei's schoolbags combined is less than half of Zhiyi's.
Cai Ling had to take exams in the next few days so she didn't have to go to the city team for training for the time being. Today, she got her wish and had dinner with Fang Weizhiyi and went home together after evening self-study, just like she did at the beginning of the school year.
Although training took up at least half of her time and energy, Cai Ling still attached great importance to her studies. However, compared with students of cultural studies, she seemed much more relaxed about exams.
"Carry me!"
"You're addicted, right? I won't carry it."
Xu Cailing clamped Fang Wei's shoulders with both hands, and Fang Wei dodged left and right to prevent her from jumping on him. The two of them were playing and fighting, and Liu Zhiyi, who was walking like a lady beside them, watched and laughed.
It's almost November. The temperature is fine during the day, but at night, when the cool night breeze blows, it feels a little cold.
The three of them were all wearing winter school uniforms. Fang Wei was walking in the middle with his hands in the pockets of his uniform.
Looking back at the two girls beside him, Fang Wei invited, "Are you cold? Do you want to put your hands in my pockets?"
Liu Zhiyi didn't say anything, but she expressed her answer with her actions. She moved closer to Fang Wei and then put her left hand into Fang Wei's right school uniform pocket.
Although they were the same pockets, she clearly felt that Fang Wei's pocket was warmer, with his own warm big hands inside. As her slightly cool little hands went in, the small pocket of the school uniform became filled up and became even warmer.
"Okay!"
Xu Cailing, who was standing on Fang Wei's left, also stretched out her right hand and put it into Fang Wei's pocket.
Fang Wei's body suddenly tensed up and he almost jumped up. He hurriedly pulled out the little hand that had slipped into his pocket like a loach.
"I told you to put your hands in your clothes pockets! Who told you to put your hands in your trouser pockets? Let go...you're going to tear my trousers off!"
"My trouser pockets are warm. What do you have in your pockets..."
"cell phone!"
There was no other way. Seeing that the stingy Fang Wei refused to let her put her hands in her trouser pockets, Xu Cailing had to put her hands in his pockets as well.
When Fang Wei slightly loosened his hand in his pocket and opened his fingers a little, the two girls seemed to have received some secret signal and understood what he meant. They silently put their hands into his warm palms and interlocked their fingers with his in his pocket.
With the pockets covering their contents, not only passers-by, but even Xu Cailing and Liu Zhiyi themselves couldn't see what was in each other's pockets...
The girls on both sides looked at each other through Fang Wei in the middle and blinked, as if trying to find the answer from each other's expressions.
I can guess the answer, but it seems that the answer is not important, so it is better not to guess...
So the two girls tacitly agreed not to think about the situation in each other's pockets, and concentrated on playing with Fang Wei's hand in their own pockets.
Suddenly, I felt another kind of excitement - when Cai Ling (Zhi Yi) was holding hands with Fang Wei over there, she definitely didn't expect me to play with his hand like this, right? I play like this, and I still play like this! Hehehe!
Taking advantage of the cool night, in their pockets where no one could see, the two girls played with their hands rather unrestrainedly, sometimes interlocking their fingers with Fang Wei's, sometimes rubbing the back of his hands affectionately, playing with his slender fingers, pinching his fingers, or hooking his palms with their fingertips.
Especially when they saw that Fang Wei's expression did not change, but he was obviously holding back, Xu Cailing and Liu Zhiyi played even more excitedly, letting the ambiguous feeling spread in their pockets, and toyed with him in different ways, as if they were competing to see who could make Fang Wei react uncontrollably first.
Fang Wei couldn't stand it anymore.
How could such a young and passionate body allow them to be teased more and more excessively!
He grabbed the two naughty little hands in his left and right pockets and stopped them from moving.
"Would you like some grilled sausage?"
"eat!"
The three of them went to the sausage stall together.
The boss is very good at doing business. In addition to grilled sausages, he also sells fried chestnuts and roasted sweet potatoes. On such an increasingly cold late autumn night, the aroma emanating from the stall diffuses in the night breeze, making people salivate.
The chestnuts are fried in a large pot of sand using special black ceramic sand. The chestnuts are opened to reveal their golden inside, and the aroma is fragrant.
The sweet potatoes and sausages are grilled with charcoal. You can feel the heat from the charcoal fire when you get close. The sweet potatoes on the rack are fully roasted, and the skin has become wrinkled, as if the veins are bulging. The sausages are also cut with beautiful pattern, and the cuts are slightly browned. After being lightly brushed with a layer of oil, the color is attractive.
The tricycle for the stall was parked at the back. The boss was busy in front of the stall. When he saw Fang Wei and two others walking up to him, he was stunned.
Good man! You come twice every night and bring different girls each time, which is fine, but today you brought both of them at once?!
"Brother, here we are. Let's stick with the old rules. Three grilled sausages, one in a bag?"
After coming here so many times, the boss has memorized Fang Wei's ordering needs. Unexpectedly, Fang Wei smiled and shook his head:
"Let's add more tonight. Three grilled sausages, half a pound of chestnuts, and... two sweet potatoes!"
Sweet potatoes are very big, and one person may not be able to finish one. Two sweet potatoes are probably just right for three people to share.
"okay!"
"Put the chestnuts and sweet potatoes in bags."
"no problem!"
After buying supper, the three of them ate while walking.
Happiness is actually very simple. Being able to eat delicious and hot food when you are hungry is already a great thing in life.
Fang Wei took out a sweet potato from the bag. It was a little hot, so he transferred it from his left hand to his right hand, and then from his right hand to his left hand. When it became too hot, he stretched out his hot fingers and pinched the girls' tender earlobes to cool them down.
"oops!"
Xu Cailing and Liu Zhiyi shrank their necks, giggled and hit him unhappily.
"Why do you touch your ears when they're hot?" Cai Ling asked curiously.
"How would I know? Maybe my ears are just a little colder?"
"Then why don't you pinch your own ears!"
"Your ears should be more interesting."
"Bah! You're a hooligan!"
Fang Wei broke open the sweet potato head, and the golden red flesh inside was revealed. He did not waste it and ate the small piece of flesh on the potato head before throwing it away.
Then peel off the slightly caramel-colored skin, and the juicy potato flesh inside will be revealed, exuding a rich sweet aroma.
"I want to eat!" Xu Cailing shouted.
"You eat first, you eat first." Fang Wei smiled and handed the peeled baked sweet potato to the girl's mouth.
Xu Cailing opened her little mouth and took a bite. The potato flesh was very hot. She half-covered her mouth with her little hand and took a deep breath.
"It smells so good~!"
"Here, you eat too." Fang Wei peeled off another piece of skin and handed it to Liu Zhiyi who had been staring at it with envy for a long time.
Although Liu Zhiyi doesn't eat much on a normal day, she just has a small appetite, but she is quite greedy and especially loves all kinds of barbecued food.
Zhiyi's eating manners were more elegant, and she did not disdain the sweet potato that Cailing had just bitten. She opened her little mouth and took a bite from the other side. The potato flesh was soft and delicate, and the girl couldn't help but feel an indescribable satisfaction in her heart.
“So sweet~!”
"Well, the rest is mine."
Fang Wei chuckled, then finally continued to peel the skin and eat the roasted sweet potato in his hand. This thing tastes better when eaten while hot!
It was a pity that my wish to eat alone was not fulfilled. Despite the protests of the two girls, we finally finished eating the two roasted sweet potatoes together, taking one bite at a time.
After eating the roasted sweet potatoes, they ate grilled sausages and chestnuts. Liu Zhiyi likes spicy food, so she sprinkled some extra chili powder on her grilled sausage. She enjoyed it very much, but Fang Wei and Xu Cailing found it too spicy when they took a bite.
The opened chestnuts are easy to peel, and they are so fragrant and glutinous that you can't stop eating them.
"If you eat too many chestnuts, you will fart. Be careful during the exam tomorrow. The classroom will be quiet, and then you will hear a popping sound."
"Oh, you're so annoying! Don't talk about that while you're eating!"
The girls kept feeding chestnuts to Fang Wei, thinking that it was this stinky fart ghost who would do the farting!
We walked and ate along the way, and it was almost half past ten when we got home. It was really unusual for a distance that normally only takes ten minutes to walk to take so long.
Fortunately, Cai Ling didn't have to train tonight, so the two girls went home and took a shower together after school in the afternoon. After returning home, they could just brush their teeth, wash their faces and feet and then rest.
There is no need to turn on the air conditioner when sleeping now. Xu Cailing and Liu Zhiyi, who used to turn on the air conditioner to save electricity, still sleep together now, and gradually they get used to it. One likes to hug others and the other likes to be hugged. So on cold nights, they get into bed together, take off all their clothes except for a thin piece of clothing, and then sleep while hugging each other. It is so warm and comfortable.
The lonely Fang Wei did not have such good treatment, but he would occasionally see it in his dreams.
But I often feel a little embarrassed when I wake up the next day. When the girls find the extra underwear on the balcony, I will be mercilessly ridiculed. I won’t mention this kind of thing...
…The next day, Wednesday, was the school’s regular exam day.
Apart from exam time, other times are no different from usual days and you can study as you need to.
Because there are nine subjects to be tested, this monthly exam will last for a total of three days. On the first day, Chinese will be tested in the morning, and mathematics will be tested in the afternoon. On the second day, physics and chemistry will be tested in the morning, and politics and history will be tested in the afternoon. On the third day, geography and biology will be tested in the morning, and English will be tested in the afternoon.
Early this morning, everyone focused on reviewing Chinese. Even Zhao Yueting took out her Chinese learning materials and started memorizing them.
The girl is not very interested in liberal arts, and probably the time when she studies most seriously is when she is cramming for an exam.
Fortunately, compared to science, cramming for liberal arts is quite effective. After all, most of them are just things to remember and memorize. Even if you can't get a high score, it is still easy to get a decent score.
Liu Bo was also reviewing Chinese language materials. He did not dislike liberal arts like Zhao Yueting, but he could not say that he liked them either. He just treated them as a task that needed to be completed. His liberal arts grades were not bad. You should know that he was the number one in the city during the high school entrance examination. Even if he got the first place because of the extra points for the Mathematical Olympiad, even if he deducted the extra points, he was still among the top 15 in the city.
In the basic subject examinations, the one who is truly all-round is probably Fang Weiwei. He is excellent in science and can also get high scores in liberal arts. In a comprehensive examination of nine subjects like this, Fang Wei is the strongest contender for the first place in the whole grade.
Teacher Liang had high expectations for him. It would be a proud thing for him if a student in his class got first place in the grade.
However, in high school, many things are different from junior high school. It is always biased to judge based on past performance. Who can say that there won't be other students who will make a big splash?
The Chinese language test lasts two and a half hours in total. It starts at nine o'clock and ends at eleven-thirty, and you can go home from school. It is earlier than usual, which can be considered a benefit during the exam period.
After half past eight, the teaching buildings gradually became lively.
Fang Wei packed his things into his schoolbag and left the classroom.
After waiting in the corridor for a while, Xu Cailing and Liu Zhiyi came downstairs together carrying their schoolbags, and the three of them walked towards the experimental building together.
"I brought along hundreds of friends to travel with, recalling the glorious past. We were schoolboys, full of vigor and vitality; we were full of youthful vigor, full of ambition and ambition..."
On the way, Fang asked questions and Xu Cailing recited the relevant passages, knowing that she was not allowed to answer quickly.
The laboratory building is an independent building different from the teaching building. When some physics or chemistry experiments are occasionally needed, the subject teachers will organize everyone to come to the laboratory building for classes.
But generally, there are very few such cases. Most students just play in laboratory classes. It is nothing like those real experiments in movies and TV. This is also a common situation in exam-oriented education. Teachers do not have any requirements for students' experimental ability. As long as they can remember the experimental results and textbook knowledge, they can get high scores in the exam.
"When Pepe and the others take their art classes, they also go to the art room in the lab building!"
The classrooms for specialty classes in music and art are all in the experimental building, and the rest of the ordinary students only come to the experimental building for computer classes and monthly exams.
There are many empty classrooms here, which are used as examination rooms.
The three of them went to classroom No. 3 on the second floor together. There was a row of empty desks outside the classroom so that everyone could put their backpacks there. Except for examination supplies, nothing else was allowed to be brought in.
Fang Wei took off the schoolbag on his shoulder and found an empty place to put it down. Xu Cailing and Liu Zhiyi also stacked their schoolbags together with his.
"Let's go to the bathroom first."
"Hey, I've been to the restroom in the lab building, it's much cleaner than the one in the teaching building!"
“Not many people usually use it.”
"Yeah, it's okay during exams, but the lab building is empty during the day, which is creepy..."
"I remembered some horror novels: the night, the empty building, the studio, the broken wax figures, the red paint, the curtains rustling in the wind, the shadows, the footsteps..." Liu Zhiyi spoke expressionlessly about some of the creepy elements.
Xu Cailing got goosebumps on her back after listening to this!
"Oh, that's annoying! Zhiyi, you're so scary! You're obviously the most cowardly one!"
"... a cold hand suddenly grabbed the back of your neck, followed by a sharp metallic sound, and a foul smell of rancid blood rushed towards you... Cai Ling~~!!"
Liu Zhiyi placed his cold little hand on Cai Ling's warm neck.
"what!"
The girl was iced and tickled unhappily.
Perhaps only in front of Fang Wei and Cai Ling, the seemingly quiet and well-behaved Liu Zhiyi would be so mischievous and naughty.
"What kind of campus horror story is this? Let me tell you one..."
"Shut up!!"
……
When the three of them returned to the examination room after going to the toilet, most of the candidates in the same classroom had also arrived.
After all, the school is big and there are many students, and there are also many unfamiliar faces among students of the same grade. It is not like before in Baitan Middle School, where even if we are not in the same class, other students of the same grade are basically familiar to each other.
Fang Wei came here to take the exam, and he had no intention of interacting with others. He walked to his seat, sat down, and placed the exam supplies and water he brought with him on the table.
Liu Zhiyi was in front of him on the right, sitting in the second row of the first group; Xu Cailing was behind him on the left, sitting in the seventh row of the last group.
Fang Wei looked at Zhiyi, and Zhiyi happened to look back at him; Fang Wei turned around to look at Cailing, and Cailing happened to be... fiddling with her uneven table. The girl bent down and folded a piece of paper towel and put it under the corner of the table, and finally it was flat.
There was no wall clock in the classroom of the experimental building, but Fang brought a watch for himself.
Ten minutes before the exam started, the invigilator walked into the classroom with the papers. There were two stacks of papers, just like the college entrance examination, divided into test papers and answer sheets.
After reading out the examination room rules, the invigilator began to distribute the papers. When the last student received his paper, the bell rang and the first Chinese exam began.
Compared with the Chinese language test in junior high school, the number of questions in high school is larger, and the understanding and assessment of texts are also deeper. Fang Wei first glanced at the questions on the test paper. Overall, there was nothing particularly difficult for him. The most likely to be deducted points were in the reading comprehension and composition sections. The other basic assessments were just the basics for him.
But there is one very special thing about Chinese compared to other subjects: before the scores come out, all your feelings may not be accurate.
But as long as the foundation is solid, it will just fluctuate within a certain range...
Fang Wei was very fast at finishing the questions. He was required not to use correction fluid or tape to cover up the mistakes, but could only cross them out and rewrite them. However, Fang Wei seldom needed to correct any mistakes, and his steady and powerful handwriting and neat papers always made the examiners give him many extra points for his impression.
"There is one hour left in the exam."
Because there was no wall clock, the invigilator simply reminded the students of the time.
Chinese is the subject with the longest exam time, which is a full two and a half hours. During normal classes, I felt like I would never be able to finish these two and a half hours, but when the exam came, I found that these two and a half hours passed by very quickly!
After hearing the time signal, some students started to get anxious. Some of the slow students had only just finished reading comprehension and had not yet finished writing their essays.
Fang Wei has already started writing the composition.
Although his writing ability is not as good as Liu Zhiyi's, he has accumulated a lot of reading over the years. As he reads more books and deliberately imitates and practices some excellent articles, his writing level will naturally improve slowly.
It is not necessary to write an 800-word essay in order to make it a masterpiece. As long as you make the right points, quote some famous sayings, and add one or two words to add the finishing touch, you can basically get a high score.
Half an hour before the end of the exam, Fang Wei finished the paper and stopped writing.
After checking the questions, he took a sip of water and finally relaxed from his tense state.
He looked at Cai Ling and Zhi Yi who were in the same examination room with great interest.
By the way, this is the first time the three of them have taken an exam together!
Fang Wei was also very interested in the girls' state during the exam.
I first looked at Liu Zhiyi in front of me.
She seemed to have finished her homework. She put her legs together and tucked them in front of the chair. Her fair and slender neck was exposed in her ponytailed hair. Her left hand was tucked into the sleeve of her school uniform, with only two or three delicate fingers showing. Her right hand was holding a pen and spinning it. Her beautiful thumb was raised, and the pen was spinning left and right around her thumb...
It seemed that the inspection was completed. Her legs, which were together, swayed happily, and the spinning pen stopped and was placed steadily on the table.
Feeling something in her heart, the girl turned around and met Fang Wei's gaze.
Fang Wei smiled, she blinked, turned her head back, put her hands on both sides to support the chair, slightly bent over, and swayed like a tumbler. Then she started to look at the reading comprehension article again. This time, she read purely for the enjoyment of reading without the purpose of answering questions.
After looking at Zhiyi, Fang Wei turned his head and looked at Cailing behind him.
Cailing is so busy!
There's no time to engage in line of sight with him!
Probably because she was rushing to finish her composition, the girl frowned and shook her legs as if she was in a hurry to pee. She looked into the void and thought, and then seemed to catch words from the void. Then she lowered her head, held the pen, and quickly copied them onto the answer sheet...
I wrote it with a lot of hesitation. My handwriting was… casual and straightforward. So in the long essay answer area, there were a bunch of such casual and straightforward words squeezed together. I'm sure the examiner would take off his glasses and rub his temples after seeing them…
"There are ten minutes left in the exam."
The invigilator said this mercilessly, Xu Cailing's eyes widened, and the tip of her pen seemed to blossom!
Fortunately, I managed to finish the test before the bell rang.
After the papers were collected and the class was over, the three of them left the classroom together and went outside to get their schoolbags.
“It feels so hard!!!”
"It seems to be quite simple this time..."
Almost at the same time, the two girls spoke at the same time but said completely different words when facing Fang Wei.
Xu Cailing and Liu Zhiyi looked at each other, then turned to Fang Wei and waited for him to make a judgment.
"What does Fang think for you?"
"Forehead……"
Fang Wei didn't know how to respond for a moment.
"This exam is indeed both difficult and easy...!"
"Get out of here~!"
……
Three days passed in this intensive examination.
Fang Wei attaches great importance to his first comprehensive examination after entering high school.
No one is born with self-confidence; it is something that can only be acquired through continuous achievements.
Overall, Fang Wei was satisfied with his performance in this exam. It was much more stable than he had imagined, and if nothing unexpected happened, he should be able to get a pretty good result.
The subject that made him most confident was probably mathematics. Objectively speaking, the mathematics this time was very difficult. Not to mention Cailing, even Zhiyi looked solemn after finishing it. When he returned to the class, most of the classmates also complained that the mathematics this time was so difficult.
Fang Wei didn't dare to say anything, because he didn't feel it was too difficult. Perhaps it was the improvement in his thinking brought about by the competition learning during this period. The difficulty of the test questions this time was mainly due to the changes in question types that he had never seen before. In fact, the knowledge points tested were still the same.
He also performed very well in physics and chemistry, and answered the questions quite fluently. At this stage, there is not much knowledge content to be tested in these two subjects.
As for English, history, politics, geography, etc., they were mainly things that needed to be memorized and recited. Fang Wei's foundation was so solid that it was difficult for him to estimate the score, but he thought that even if there were points deducted, they would only be small ones.
Although No. 1 Middle School is home to many top students, Fang Wei also has his own pride. Putting aside the competitions, he does not think that he is worse than others in the assessment of basic subjects.
After all, he has always been the first since elementary school, so naturally he hopes that he can maintain the first place after entering high school.
When the results come out, he will be so proud when he tells me on the phone! I'm afraid I'll be even prouder than him!
With such expectations, after spending the weekend, the papers started to be distributed one after another during the break on Monday.
"Class monitor! Your score is... 148!"
(End of this chapter)
