Chapter 57
Leaving the exam room, Li Heng caught up with Mai Sui and handed the pen over: "Mai Sui, thank you for your fountain pen, returning it to you."
Mai Sui didn't take it, "No rush, you keep using it, return it to me after the exam."
Then she asked, leaning in: "Did you really finish this paper?"
Hearing this, many people around looked over.
Li Heng wanted to be modest, but thinking that Teacher Luo had already betrayed him, being modest would seem too hypocritical.
So he hummed and said: "Maybe I was lucky, I just filled it all in, but I don't know if it's right?"
"Damn! You call this luck? Are you trying to kill me? I might not even pass." Liu Li, who was on the side, was very depressed; he had always thought his math was okay, but he hadn't expected the slap in the face to be so painful this time.
"Li Heng! Li Heng! What did you choose for the last multiple-choice question?"
Just as Li Heng was thinking about how to comfort Liu Li, a swift voice suddenly came from the stairwell, and his fellow townsman Yangcheng killed his way up from the second floor.
Li Heng replied: "I chose A."
"Holy crap! I chose A too, I'm really awesome, brother! I felt at first glance that A and I were destined for that question."
Yangcheng was 119th in the school in the final exam last semester, and he had almost barely made it into this exam; now he wanted to rush into the top 100 in the school so badly he was almost obsessed.
After comparing one question, Yangcheng asked urgently again: "The third fill-in-the-blank question, what did you fill in?"
Li Heng recalled it and said: "It seems to be the square root of 3."
"Good! Really! I'm so amazing!"
The chubby Yangcheng jumped up excitedly, "Do you know, many students in our class couldn't do this question, I calculated it once and got it right!"
At this point, Yangcheng laughed up at the sky, his right hand resting on Li Heng's shoulder: "It's stable this time! Getting into the top 100 is definitely stable, maybe I can even get into the top 30 and get a scholarship! I'll treat you to soda then, buddy."
The people from the first exam hall in the corridor all looked very gloomy, and Yangcheng, who was from an ordinary class, shouting and yelling here, was completely out of place.
Zou Aiming, who was also from Qianzhen, asked: "Yangcheng, how many of the last three big questions did you do?"
Yangcheng didn't answer immediately, hurriedly turning his head to ask Li Heng: "Li Heng, did you do them? You probably couldn't do them either, right?"
Li Heng smiled, fearing it would affect his performance in the following subjects, so he didn't crush his confidence: "No, I left them blank too."
Yangcheng asked his acquaintance Xiao Feng again: "Xiao Feng, what about you?"
Xiao Feng looked at Li Heng and then shook her head.
"Damn! I knew it, you two couldn't do these questions, so surely no one could do them, I don't know which lunatic wrote the questions, messing around!" Yangcheng had been nervous for a moment, then hugged Zou Aiming and grinned again.
As luck would have it, Teacher Luo came out of the exam room clutching a stack of papers at this moment and grabbed Yangcheng's ear:
"No respect for your elders, which class are you in? I'm going to tell your homeroom teacher."
Yangcheng wasn't familiar with Teacher Luo and wasn't that afraid, but he was terrified of the Dean of Students behind him, instantly cowering: "Teacher, I was wrong, please just let me go like a fart, woo."
"Hey! You're a guy who can bend and stretch!" Teacher Luo was amused by his exaggerated expression and actually let him go.
However, before Teacher Luo left, he wickedly threw out a sentence: "Kid, if you want to get into the top 30, you also need to get 90 points in math, otherwise there's no chance."
After the teacher walked away, Yangcheng counted on his fingers and said happily: "Excluding the 32 points for the last three big questions, the total score is still 88, getting 80 points isn't easy, haha.
Maybe I can really get 90 points this time, I piled up formulas for the last few questions, I'll definitely get some points."
With Yangcheng, this funny character, cracking jokes, the atmosphere instantly improved a lot.
The reason Yangcheng was called a funny character was because this guy would come to find Li Heng to compare answers every time a math exam was over.
And every time he would pat his chest and say how much he could get, but when the scores came out, there was always a big gap.
After this happened many times, over time, the people in the first exam hall all recognized this person, got used to it, and just watched for fun.
The subsequent politics, history, and geography exams were relatively much better. Although they were also difficult, they weren't difficult like math; in math, if you couldn't do it, you couldn't do it, and staring blankly was useless.
But politics, history, and geography were different; they were the same nature as Chinese, with many subjective questions, and you could finish them whether you knew them or not, which was psychologically much more relaxing.
The last subject was English; from multiple-choice, grammar, to cloze, to reading, and then to listening, he finished it almost in one breath, and the feeling, well, it wasn't as good as he imagined, but it was okay.
He estimated that he wasn't sure about several grammar and cloze questions, but reading and listening didn't take much effort.
When handing in his paper and walking out of the exam room, Li Heng asked Song Yu: "How did you do this time?"
Song Yu replied: "Except for math, everything was fine."
Then she looked over with a faint smile, "What about you? Your math advantage is so big, you should have done very well this time."
Li Heng didn't speak for a moment, and only after the people behind had passed did he say leisurely: "I don't know yet, maybe I can realize a wish I've had for a long time."
Song Yu asked quietly: "What wish?"
Li Heng stared into her eyes for a full 3 seconds, but in the end, he didn't tell the secret in his heart, and as he passed by, he said: "Guess, you're so smart, maybe you can guess it."
Li Heng left, holding in a pee, and had to run to the toilet.
Song Yu gazed quietly at his back, and an inexplicable voice in her heart told her: his wish might have something to do with her...
She believed her intuition, because it was always very accurate.
But this time she was a little afraid of her intuition and didn't want to think about it anymore.
Seeing Li Heng leave, Mai Sui, who was waiting on the other side of the corridor, walked over and teased her:
"Song Yu, do you know what you looked like just now?"
Song Yu's eyes were bright: "Like what?"
Mai Sui reached out to hook her arm, a trace of charm appearing in her eyes, and said word by word: "A stone waiting for her husband!"
Facing her friend's teasing, Song Yu smiled beautifully and didn't take it seriously.
Today is Sunday, and there is a half-day holiday after the exam.
Finally getting some free time, Li Heng, like everyone else, first washed the accumulated dirty clothes and hung them out to dry.
Then he was called by Zou Aiming and Zhang Zhiyong to play basketball, and Liu Li was there too.
Because they were both secretly in love with Chen Lijun, Zou Aiming had completely broken up with Liu Yejiang, and during the break, he said:
"Old Heng, if you beat Liu Yejiang by 20 points this time, I'll treat you to a stir-fry at the faculty canteen."
With a big meal to eat, and for free, the foodie Li Heng didn't know what being polite was: "Can I order whatever I want?"
Zou Aiming patted his pocket: "Since I'm treating, then of course you can."
Li Heng said with a smile: "Okay, I'll remember that, I'll abuse them both later when we play, not you."
Hearing this, Zhang Zhiyong, who had already been abused miserably, couldn't take it anymore and cursed:
"Your grandfather! We were together every day during the winter break, and I didn't see you touch a basketball, how did you get so good all of a sudden?"
Liu Li nodded in deep agreement: "I feel like this guy Li Heng evolved secretly behind our backs."
Li Heng couldn't be bothered to pay attention, and with great interest, he pulled the three of them up and abused them fiercely on the court again.
