Chapter 300 Golden Autumn
When Zhiyi heard that there was no money for the interview, she was unwilling to go!
As the news spread, the girl became quite famous this time. Seeing that the small vest could no longer cover up the truth, Zhiyi simply lay down and accepted her fate.
Fortunately, she is usually at school and few people outside the school can recognize her, so it doesn’t have too much impact on her life. She didn’t know what it feels like to be famous before, but now she knows.
Although it is shameful to expose the fact that she is a young writer, this shame will gradually fade away with the passage of time. The experience of becoming famous at a young age has gradually brought her more confidence when interacting with others.
When others don't know, she won't say it actively, but when others ask, the girl can now openly admit "Yes, it's me".
The most important thing is the changes it brings to her relatives and friends. Whenever she sees Fang Wei, Cai Ling, and her grandfather being proud of her being a little writer, Zhiyi feels that her efforts are very valuable!
Especially grandpa, Uncle Liu has been smiling a lot recently. Because his good granddaughter was shy and refused to be interviewed, various media took the trouble to come to the village and interview Uncle Liu.
Speaking of his own lovely granddaughter, the old man was very excited. Who said that a girl can't bring honor to the family? !
Everyone who knew Zhiyi was shocked; those who didn’t know Zhiyi now knew her. Many people first learned about her from the news, then looked for her books and articles to read, and finally became her fans.
Fang Wei also laughed and said: "Why don't you learn from Han Han and others and use your real name when writing books? Anyway, you will have to use your real name when you join the Writers Association in the future."
"I-I don't want it!"
What does Lu Xun's article have to do with Zhou Shuren? Similarly, what does Nanfeng's article have to do with Liu Zhiyi! She doesn't want to put her real name on it!
After the girl signed autographs and took photos with almost all the fans in the school, her daily study and life finally returned to normal.
Besides the fact that classmates would greet her enthusiastically wherever she went, "Mrs. Nanfeng! Have you finished writing today's manuscript?", it was finally not like at the beginning, when many people would crowd in front of the door of Class 3 to see her after class...
On July 6th, the school finally ended the final exams and ushered in the annual summer vacation.
As usual, summer vacation does not belong to any high school student. Those going from the first to the second year of high school need to take make-up classes, and so do those going from the second to the third year of high school.
After a week's break, when they came back to make up for the lessons, Fang Wei, Cailing, Zhiyi, Peipei, Yushan and the others would officially move to Zhiyuan Building to become a senior high school student preparing for the exam.
There are four more classes in the third year of high school than in the first and second years of high school. These four classes are repeater classes. Most of the repeaters who can come to No. 1 Middle School for repeating had originally had good scores in the college entrance examination. Some of them did not perform well unexpectedly, and some wanted to strive for higher goals.
The biggest difference between repeaters and freshmen is probably their temperament. Just like soldiers returning after a disastrous defeat on the battlefield, they are relatively taciturn and their eyes are more determined.
When this group of people appeared in their grade, the "new recruits" who had just entered the third year of high school also understood that in less than a year, it would be their turn to go to the battlefield.
Looking back on his high school life in his previous life, Fang Wei could not remember many of his feelings. It was not because of the long time. Even when he was studying there, he did not have many feelings. Even in his third year of high school, he still climbed over the wall every few days to go online. The only thing that impressed him was probably when the last English test was over and the teacher took his paper away. Suddenly, his mind went blank, and he kept thinking of a voice in his ears: "My three years of high school are over." His steps seemed to be empty when he walked. He looked around, and the afternoon sun was dazzling. He wanted to recall what he had done in those three years, but he could not remember anything worth remembering. It was like he had slept in a daze, and when he woke up, everything was gone...
It’s hard to describe my feelings at that moment.
Thinking about it now, I may have regretted more at the beginning. After all, the relief is that I tried hard and succeeded in achieving my goal; the regret is that I tried hard but unfortunately did not do better; the only regret is that I never tried hard and let my youth slip away from those walls that I climbed over time and time again...
The morning after the all-nighter was very cold, but even now when Fang Wei thinks about it, he doesn't think it was as cold as that sunny June afternoon after the college entrance examination.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this that he changed himself to this extent in this life.
I am grateful that I am lucky in this life. I have youth and the feeling of youth.
Fang Wei never thought about how talented or amazing he was. He just demonstrated how well a person who was determined to change could achieve starting from scratch.
Cai Ling and Zhiyi were also lucky. Although the two girls did not have the overlapping memories of two lives like him, they also knew that if it were not for Fang Wei, their lives would probably be in a very different situation today.
……
"Is the strength okay?"
"Wow - push harder! A little to the left, a little to the left, yes... step harder!"
"Hehehe... Zhiyi! Stop tickling me! I told you to tickle me but you just tickled me!"
"Hey, you two...! Why should I be responsible for massaging you?!"
On a holiday night, Fang Wei and Cai Ling lay on the bed together, and Liu Zhiyi was responsible for giving them massages.
Fang Wei and Cai Ling were lying side by side, and Zhiyi sat on Cai Ling's butt, massaging Cai Ling's thighs with one hand and her waist and back with the other hand, while her pair of slender little feet were stepping on Fang Wei's back, rubbing it like kneading noodles.
"Because we just finished the exam and are very tired, of course you have to give us a massage!" Cai Ling said comfortably.
“Well, then I just finished the exam too!!” Zhiyi was full of question marks.
"How can it be the same? You have been admitted to the Literature Department of Fudan University! We haven't even started yet!" Fang Wei closed his eyes and felt the little feet stepping on his back.
"That's right! Zhiyi, if you want us to do well in the exam, you have to serve us well. You don't want us to fail in Fudan, do you?"
“…Ahhhh! I can’t fail the exam!!”
There was no other way, the little maid Zhiyi had to continue serving the master and the mistress obediently.
But the girl was also very good at comforting herself. She tried hard and said, "I am the mother after all. Not only do I have to study, but I also have to take care of this family and take care of you two lazy bums!"
"I'm the mom! Only a daughter would give a massage to mom and dad!"
"Okay, okay, from now on whoever gives birth first will be the mother."
"…Bah! You are so shameless!"
Although they said so, the two girls rolled their eyes after hearing this...
After a while, the busy Zhiyi mother finally finished the massage. Her hands and feet were sore, so she lay down with a meow and pressed on Fang Wei's back.
Seeing this, Cai Ling pressed on Zhiyi's back like she was making a sandwich.
As a result, Fang Wei was almost suffocated by the two of them.
"You're crushing me! If you crush me, I'll see how you can still be a mother!"
"Hmph, I'll just crush you!"
The three of them were having fun, and holiday nights are always so relaxing and pleasant.
Fang Wei turned on the night light and turned off the lights in the room. Cai Ling and Zhiyi followed him into the bed, snuggling warmly on his left and right arms respectively, being intimate and whispering sweet nothings to each other.
"Now Zhiyi has been recommended to Fudan University, and Fangwei will definitely be admitted easily as well."
Cai Ling said, sighing a little sadly: "Ah...what if I don't pass the exam?"
"Fool, how could that be!"
Fang Wei said with a smile: "Not to mention that our Cai Ling is the champion of the upcoming provincial games. Even if you are not good enough, with your current status as a strong athlete, you can easily get in through the high-level enrollment!"
This was not because Fang Wei wanted to comfort her on purpose, because it was the truth. The Olympics were approaching, and top athletes were very popular in major universities. Their popularity was no less than that of competitive students. If Cai Ling won the provincial games championship, she would be 100% able to obtain admission.
Cailing started preparing for the Provincial Games since last summer vacation. This year's Provincial Games will be held on September 8th and will last for a week.
Today is July 6th, and there are only two months left.
In order to balance her studies on weekdays, Cai Ling, except for the training with the provincial team last summer, usually consolidates her training with the city team. Even though she is not in the provincial team, the girl's grades are still steadily improving. After all, mastering the training methods is the most important thing, coupled with her determination to win the championship.
The closer the competition gets, the more we cannot relax.
The final exam just ended today, but starting from tomorrow until the end of the Provincial Games, Cai Ling will return to the provincial team for training and preparation, just like last year.
"Wow, wow, wow...I have to leave again tomorrow!"
"I can't help it~ Don't worry, I will visit you once every two weeks like before!"
"Ahhh...half a month!"
Cai Ling rolled over and over, she was so unbearable just thinking about being separated for a long time again.
She was still considerate and thoughtful. She lay on the right side, touched his smooth forehead and said:
"Then, then Fang Wei should stay with Cai Ling more tonight. Cai Ling will be leaving tomorrow..."
"Huh? Zhiyi! If you let me, I will agree!" Cai Ling's eyes lit up.
"Ah? Then you're going to sleep alone tonight?" Fang Wei said in surprise.
"No, you guys play your games, I'll just lie down and sleep next to you."
Fang Wei Cailing: “???”
"No, what do you mean I just want you to sleep next to me..."
"Ahhh! Zhiyi, you really are so weird!!"
"What? What?... I, I won't care about you. Just pretend I don't exist..." At Zhiyi's instigation, Fang Wei and Cai Ling went to play games in a duo.
But when playing the game online, every time I looked up, I could always see a pair of big eyes looking at me with excitement and curiosity.
Soon, Cai Ling couldn't stand it anymore and ordered Fang Wei to bully Zhiyi, then she sat cross-legged and hugged her arms and watched.
Zhiyi reacted and tried to run away, but unfortunately she failed and was caught by Cailing and dragged into Fang Wei's bed...
No one knew how long they played this game of mutual insults until even the night light on the desk went out, and then the three of them snuggled up to each other and fell asleep.
The starry sky is still brilliant tonight.
……
Early the next morning.
Fang Wei Cailing knew that the three of them packed up the house, took all their things and went out together.
Just like the first time they sent Cai Ling to training, this time Fang Wei and Zhiyi also sent her here together.
First take a boat to Ningbo, then take a bus to Suzhou and Hangzhou. When you arrive at the training base, it is already past eleven o'clock in the afternoon.
It was about the same time as Fang Wei's usual visit to Cai Ling, but when the girl walked this route herself, she realized how far it was to travel for more than five hours...
"How about, how about you really not have to come to see me during your vacation... It's really a long way, and the pressure of studying is so great now..."
Fang Wei smiled and just replied: "What do you care about me?"
These three simple words brought endless peace of mind and courage to the girl's heart.
She nodded vigorously and then took the luggage from Fang Weizhiyi.
"Then I'm leaving!"
"Well, train hard! We will definitely win the championship!!"
"Then you must come and watch the game! But I heard from the coach that the participating players can only get two family tickets..."
After all, the Provincial Games is a large-scale event in the province, and local TV stations will broadcast the opening and closing ceremonies as well as the schedule live. However, as it is the first such important event in her life, Cai Ling still hopes that her loved ones and friends can come to the scene to cheer her on.
It's a pity that the audience groups are usually organized by various social groups, such as representatives of heroes and models, representatives of cultural and sports circles, student representatives, and groups from various units. The number of tickets sold to the public is very small, and ordinary people can't get them. Each participating athlete does have two family tickets, but for Cai Ling, it seems that two tickets are not enough...
"Okay, okay, don't worry. We have a powerful sister here. Didn't I tell you yesterday that she will definitely come to the scene to cheer you on? When the time comes, give your two tickets to Uncle Yuan and Aunt Juan, and we will come with my sister!"
"Uh-huh!!"
After hearing what Fang Wei said, Cai Ling stopped worrying.
"Then I'm leaving?"
"Come in, we have to go back soon. After you tidy up the dormitory, remember to call Uncle Yuan and Aunt Juan to let them know you're safe, so that when I get home, Aunt Juan and the others won't complain about you to me again."
"Got it! You have to send me a message when you get home!"
After talking for a long time, the girl took her luggage and walked quickly into the base.
They looked back every few steps until they could no longer see her. Then Fang Wei and Zhiyi left Suzhou and Hangzhou and returned to the island.
……
After staying on the island for a few days, it was time to return to school and start making up lessons.
The place where classes are held became Zhiyuan Building, which is the place closest to the dream and farthest from the cafeteria.
Fang Wei now feels the three years of high school that he did not fully experience in his previous life. Even with his excellent grades, he clearly noticed a drastic change in the daily learning atmosphere after stepping into the senior high school classroom.
Even Zhao Sir, who usually slacked off during evening self-study, put away the MP3 headphones he had hidden in his school uniform.
"Mr. Zhao, did your father confiscate your MP3?"
"What are you talking about! Can't I awaken myself? Just watch and pray! After I started working on it, your first position is shaky!"
"No sister...are you serious?"
"Hmph, just wait and see~"
Fang Wei was startled and quickly took out his book to compete with Zhao Yueting.
Since the division of subjects and several monthly examinations, the rankings of the top students have basically been fixed. Fang Wei is always the first, Liu Bo is always the second, and Zhao Yueting is either the third or the fourth.
Now Liu Bo, like Cai Ling, has gone to the provincial physics team for training to prepare for the national competition. I guess he is probably in a semi-out-of-school state during his senior year. Liu Bo's admission to Peking University and Tsinghua University is basically a foregone conclusion.
Then Fang Wei’s strongest remaining competitor is probably Zhao Yueting.
Having known Mr. Zhao for such a long time, Fang Wei knew that this girl was incredibly smart. Even before the subject division, her liberal arts were relatively poor, but it was only because she was too lazy to learn, not because she was unable to learn. Even though she was just studying half-heartedly at that time, her liberal arts score rarely fell below 240. With her IQ, if she really wanted to learn something, there was nothing she couldn't learn if she worked hard.
Entering the last year of high school, Zhao Yueting has now clarified her target university and future career direction. She wants to apply to the University of Political Science and Law! She wants to enter the judicial system! Participate in the formulation and improvement of laws, and to the maximum extent of her ability, safeguard fairness and justice for more people! !
If someone else shouted out words like "fairness and justice", Fang Wei would just listen and laugh, but Zhao Yueting was different, she would really demand herself to achieve it!
Is it still a dream if it is not laughed at by others? No matter where she can go in the future, at least Zhao Yueting has fought for it in her youth.
……
Time flies by.
With the freshmen of high school entering the school with brand new faces, it is the golden September of the year again.
Liu Zhiyi, who had been relaxing for a long time, became busy again during the days of freshman enrollment. It was not about guiding freshmen, but as a "high school best-selling author", she had to sign autographs and take photos with her juniors...
After two months of training, Cailing is about to face the first major competition in her life.
Fortunately, Fang Wei would come to recharge her every half a month, and the girl has now accumulated her best competitive form.
Cai Ling is going to represent the Xuanzhu City Track and Field Team in the Provincial Games!
Such an important matter would surely attract the enthusiastic attention of relatives, friends, teachers and students in the school!
Although most of her relatives, friends, teachers and classmates cannot come to the scene to watch the game and cheer her on, the live broadcast, replay or news reports of Cailing’s game are definitely not to be missed.
It's a pity that the girl is not in school at the moment, otherwise she would have seen people in every corridor talking about 'Senior Xu Cailing from Class 6 of Senior Grade 3 is still the favorite to win the Provincial Games'. Unlike Zhiyi who likes to be sneaky and low-key, Cailing loves these pretentious moments the most!
The provincial games last for seven days, which is a critical period of study. It is difficult to take such a long leave. Therefore, during Cailing's preliminary stage, Fang Wei and Zhiyi watched the TV replay.
I have known Cai Ling for so many years, but this is the first time I have seen her on TV.
Because the girl is young and beautiful and is the favorite to win the championship, the camera cleverly focuses on Cai Ling's pretty face.
She had her hands on her hips, her shoulder-length hair tied into a cute little ponytail at the back of her head. She no longer had the mischievous and frivolous look of the past, instead she looked cold and cool, and her eyes were looking straight towards the finish line.
"…The fifth runner is Xu Cailing from Xuanzhu City Track and Field Team. She is currently a senior student at Xuanzhu City No. 11 Middle School. She has broken the women's 39m and m double records in the City Middle School Track and Field Championships. She is also the favorite to win this event. Her best result in the personal training match is seconds for the m. But she seems to be lacking a truly high-profile open competition to prove herself. I hope she can bring us a surprise performance and add another rising star to our country's track and field project!"
"Cai Ling is so cool!!!"
After all, it was a replay. In fact, Fang Wei and Zhiyi had already received a call from Cai Ling earlier, knowing that she had qualified as the first in the group. But when they saw the scene of the game with their own eyes and saw their childhood sweetheart appear on TV, Fang Wei and Zhiyi couldn't help but feel excited.
Even though it’s just a group stage, some of the players there are very strong!
Although Cai Ling won the first place in the group and advanced to the next round without any suspense in the end, the nervousness and excitement while watching the game made Fang Wei and Zhiyi eager to go to the scene in person to cheer for Cai Ling.
"Wait a minute, let me search online to see if there are any replays of the game that I can download..."
"As a souvenir?"
"Yes, and Peipei and Yushan couldn't watch it in the dormitory and wanted to watch it, so they asked me to download it for them to watch!"
"Ahhhh! I must go to the finals!!"
Fortunately, Uncle Yuan and Aunt Juan had two family tickets and went to the scene to cheer for their daughter from the preliminaries.
The preliminaries went smoothly. As the biggest favorite to win, Cai Ling signed up for the women's 4m, women's 100m, and women's *m events, and easily advanced to the finals in all of them.
The final will be on September 14th.
On the 13th, Fang Wei and Zhiyi finally took three days off. With the tickets that the resourceful Wen Susu had helped them get, they rushed to the scene with Wen Susu and Xu Caiwei.
Let’s witness Cai Ling’s winning moment together!
