Chapter 5 (2/2)
During the headmaster’s speech, among the senior high students standing below, a number of them were good friends since junior high, and they were chitchatting. It could not be help, nowadays the school’s opening ceremony was way too boring. Anyway, none of them daringly took out their phones, which were prohibited by the school authorities, apparently. There were also class teachers watching the students from aside. As such, everyone was well-behaved.
Nobody was talking to Zhao Youyue, but this was normal. Her side-character’s nature had almost render her invisible. Should anyone start off a conversation with her, it would most likely turn out to be an awkward one.
Zhao Youyue was pretty much used to this kind of situation, in fact, she perceived it as a peace of mind and a sudden thought flickered her mind. To her, Katou Megumi was able to turn into a “Saint” just because she had remained as a bystander for a very long time. As the saying goes, “the bystander is a sanest”. This had justified the extraordinary eyesight of Saint Megumi, who might conceivably gain insights of everything.
Besides, Zhao Youyue admitted that she had been emulating Katou Megumi. It had actually helped her to retain peace of mind and suppresses her will of troublemaking. With that, she was able to preserve her strength to accomplish something bigger in future.
The next speaker right after the headmaster, was none other than the exceptional student representative, Huang Zongchao. Having achieved first place in the college entrance exam within the entire city, he was allegedly a superstar in school since his junior high. Zongchao had always carried an amazing sense of presence. Not only did everyone in his school recognized him, but people from other schools heard of his name too. This is incredible!
It was Zhao Youyue’s first time to get to know this guy who was sitting at the chairman’s seat. Albeit not very handsome, his character was emitting an aura of positivity and confidence. Zhao Youyue was startled as she had assumed that he was a none other than bookworm.
Meanwhile, Zongchao was giving a delightful speech. Without sticking to those mundane sentences, he had delivered some impromptu stories filled with wits and humors. The headmaster who sat aside, was smiling in satisfaction.
It was undeniable that the world is interesting. There are side characters without outstanding traits like Zhao Youyue, but at the same time, there are also charismatic elite scholars like Huang Zongchao. A superior man like him, would always be remembered by all his schoolmates even after many years.
Surprisingly, not long after the new semester commenced, pre-test was just around the corner. Zhao Youyue had a difficult time dealing with it. She could easily complete the simple questions but was helpless when facing the difficult ones. She then put the blame on her IQ…
Alright, persistence was another challenge of hers. Zhao Youyue came from a decent family background that she could hardly endure any hardships. Besides, her parents were never strict on her. They were pretty much happy if their daughter could score an average result, after all, she was placed in a superior high school. With her current results, she could grudgingly be selected as the First Batch of Undergraduates, perhaps by any means of relationship, or money. Well, entering a prestigious university would not be a problem for Zhao Youyue.
As such, she was not trained to be an aspirant girl and was living blissfully throughout her life…
“Enough said. Why would I even shift into such an ordinary template girl? Our souls were now perfectly mused, and I could feel that my aspiration is gradually fading.” Zhao Youyue grumbled on her own.
Her only request was to excel in studies. At least, she would not need to undergo the pain and sufferings brought out by the exams. Never did she want to stare solemnly at those questions anymore. That feeling was terrible!
Finally, the Two Dimensional Gate which she had been longing for, once again, showed up in her dream. So, Zhao Youyue walked in, determinedly.
This time, what kind of world will it be?
