Chapter 371 - Feng Yangs Sister (1/2)
After taking a few days of sick leave, Yun Xi couldn’t bear the boredom any longer. Worried that her mother would try to use her final exam grades against her if they were too low, she finally returned to school, after rea.s.suring Mu Feichi that she was okay.
As soon as she arrived at school, Zhao Yumo ran over to her, frantically expressing her concern.
“I’m so glad that you’re okay. When that idiot Second Master Jiang said that you had been kidnapped, I was scared to death!”
Yun Xi didn’t tell her any of the specifics about that day. She just smiled airily and said, “I’m fine, don’t worry about me.”
“That Han Yaotian is such an outrageous fool. He put your life at risk. D*mn him. The next time I see him, I’m going to beat him up!”
“With the energy that you would have to expend to beat him up, it would be better for you to take advantage of Second Master Jiang’s abilities and try to be more like him. Seeing the Han family go from being one of the four major clans to nothing will be more gratifying than beating him up, am I right?
“You’re right. Second Master Jiang says the same thing. I will work harder.”
After talking about this, Zhao Yumo suddenly remembered something interesting that had been going on in their high school while Yun Xi had been away.
“By the way, your perfect score essay started circulating around our school for some reason. Not only among seniors in our grade, but also the juniors are studying your essay. I heard that there was an essay contest for first years and second years, and the literature teachers printed out your essay and distributed it to all the students as reference.”
Yun Xi frowned slightly. “How come I feel like I’ve suddenly become a celebrity?”
Zhao Yumo patted Yun Xi on the shoulder with pride. “That’s right. You are now a celebrity in our high school.”
“I’d better keep a low profile, lest someone try to trip me up.”
Zhao Yumo chuckled. “Who would dare do that to you now? Senior year of high school is very academically rigorous. This semester, all that is left to accomplish are the Biology Olympiad and the English compet.i.tion sponsored by Jingdu University of Foreign Languages. The preliminary contest is at the end of the month, and the finals are in the middle of next month. If you win an award, you can be recommended to study at a foreign university. If you want to partic.i.p.ate, I will go too.”
Yun Xi raised her eyes and glanced at Zhao Yumo. She was fairly confident in her English, so partic.i.p.ating wouldn’t be a problem.
Zhao Yumo’s mother taught foreign languages, and she had been learning English since she was a child.
“Then partic.i.p.ate. Just treat it as testing your skills.”
People like them had to have things they had control over, and studying abroad wasn’t that realistic.
Yun Xi narrowed her eyes. With Yun Ziling’s grades, it wouldn’t be easy for her to win the essay contest among the first and second-year students.
