On the day of the exam, the class teacher comes earlier than the students and waits at the entrance of the school for more than an hour before the exam, rushing over to do a little thinking whenever he sees the students in his class.

When he saw Qiao Lan and Tan Mo coming, he rushed extra fast.

After all, these two were the two people he had most hopes for!

Tan Mo, in particular, could be aiming for the top spot in the province this year.

On the day of the exam, the class teacher comes earlier than the students and waits at the entrance of the school for more than an hour before the exam, rushing over to do a little thinking whenever he sees the students in his class.

When he saw Qiao Lan and Tan Mo coming, he rushed extra fast.

After all, these two were the two people he had most hopes for!

Tan Mo, in particular, could aim to be the top student in the province this year, and the class teacher is thrilled to think that he could bring up a top student.

"Nervous no, not nervous, right, don't be nervous, just play to your strengths, just like a normal exam ......"

Qiao Lan was originally quite nervous, but now that the exams were approaching he was slowly stabilizing, and was happy for a good half day after being given such a series of prompts by the class teacher, and after the class teacher had left he spoke to Tan Mo, "What if I really fail and don't do well in the exams."

"No", Tan Mo was honest, Qiao Lan's level was there and even if he lost, he was better than most.

"I don't know", Qiao Lan said with a smile, "if we don't do well on the exams will we not be able to get into one university?"

"There's no chance of that," Tan Mo replied more quickly this time, adding after a moment's thought, "Even if there is a chance of not getting a good exam, there's no chance of not being at the same school."

It took Qiao Lan five seconds to finally understand Tan Mo's statement.

To put it simply, Qiao Lan will go wherever his exams take him, and if you don't do well, then we'll go to a school that's not so good.

Qiao Lan wanted to give Tan Mo a big hug if the occasion wasn't so inappropriate.

However, after some serious thought, Tan Mo decided that Qiao Lan had nothing to worry about and that she was the one who was more likely to lose.

Language, a very stable subject for others, is one of the most unstable for Tan Mo, who is at the mercy of the world for every reading comprehension and essay.

Even if he reads more books and recognises more expressions, it just makes others think he understands.

In fact, Tan Mo still doesn't get it.

Tan Mo turned his head to look at Qiao Lan for a moment, suddenly a little worried.

What if the reading and essay were emotional questions? What if he didn't do well in the language? What if he didn't do well in the exam and didn't get into the school he had arranged with Qiao Lan?

So if the language is not guaranteed, isn't it safer that several other subjects must be at their most perfect?

The first course on the first day of the GCSE is a language.

Tan Mo entered the examination room slightly worried, and was slightly relieved to see the essay questions.

If he is right, this essay should be a reaction to some social phenomenon?

I think...yes...

In the past, Tan Mo had never been nervous even when he was unsure of his essay idea.

When the language exams were finally over, Tan Mo walked along the road, ignoring the occasional glances from girls, and listened with open ears to the students discussing their ideas, even though many of them seemed to have written the same idea as his own, Tan Mo didn't really believe them.

It wasn't until I found Qiao Lan and heard his ideas that I had a good laugh.

Tan Mo's subjects after that were Tan Mo's speciality, not to mention the fact that Tan Mo was much more careful than he usually is in his exams, checking his maths paper twice after he finished it and making sure it was correct before he handed it in.

After the last English course, Qiao Lan and Tan Mo met the class teacher again in front of the school.

The atmosphere was completely different from that after the previous exams, when everyone stopped correcting the answers and started discussing the rest of the summer with great interest.

Tan Mo accompanies Qiao Lan to the hostel to get her things.

Aunt Chan asked Qiao Lan to bring back all the textbooks from her school days, saying that even if she didn't need them anymore, they would be a memento.

Today the school allowed outsiders in and out of the dormitories, and students' parents and friends were allowed to enter the dormitories to help the graduates move their things. Every now and then a pile of things would be thrown out of the windows in the dormitory building, and the last thing thrown was books, and many students were finally liberated and threw all their books out of the windows, shouting with excitement.

The resident aunt stood at the bottom of the building cursing, but it didn't affect the excited students at the moment in any way.

Qiao Lan looked at the students coming in and out, smiled and said to Tan Mo, "Do you want to go up and have a look?"

Tan Mo thinks of something and subconsciously wants to say he won't go up, but then quickly decides on second thought.

"Get up there."

If memory serves, a year and a half ago, Hao Ying broke into the girls' dormitory building and even into Qiao Lan's dormitory to confess her love for her.

Although he couldn't see that stupid method of confession, he had to go in and have a look.

At least it's a place where Qiao Lan has lived for two years.

Although by and large you will meet people who don't quite get along.

Qiao Lan and Tan Mo have long been an almost vacant couple in the school, and now Tan Mo has come straight to help Qiao Lan carry her luggage, with students walking past exclaiming that while everyone else is helped by their parents, Qiao Lan is straight up boyfriend.

But thinking about Qiao Lan's fucked-up parents' family and looking around at their own parents who help out, many feel balanced.

The dormitory was also in disarray and you could hear Xiang Xiaohan directing his parents to pack their things before you even got there.

The smile on her face froze when she turned her head and saw Qiao Lan, or Tan Mo, and then she took two steps back as if remembering something.

Qiao Lan raises an eyebrow in surprise.

Xiang Xiaohan had always been at odds with her, and usually didn't speak when he could, but otherwise there was nothing else.

Qiao Lan identifies what has happened between Tan Mo and Xiang Xiaohan.

What's really going on...

Even Xiang Xiaohan's parents sensed that their daughter had suddenly gone silent.

Tan Mo walked past her as if she didn't see Xiang Xiaohan and pointed to Qiao Lan's bunk, "Do you live here?"

"Huh? Yes", Qiao Lan withdrew her eyes and without further thought walked over to join Tan Mo in packing.

Xiang Xiaohan stares at the backs of Qiao Lan and Tan Mo.

Xiang Xiaohan has never been able to dislike Tan Mo, except that what was once a superior mentality has been shattered since Tan Mo stood up for herself, and Tan Mo is too mean to even give her a look.

It is for this reason that Xiang Xiaohan hates Qiao Lan even more.

It was even more harsh to watch these two in unparalleled harmony.

Xiang Xiaohan clenched his fists, took a deep breath and turned around, hastily packed his things and dragged his parents out of the hostel.

Qiao Lan glances at the door of the dormitory, then withdraws his gaze and continues to pack his clothes.

Bai Yu came in from the outside, while packing up his things and shouting at the top of his voice, "Tomorrow night is the last party of class 18 xxktv, all those who can come can come ah, those who can't come please write a five thousand word leave of absence to the class teacher thank you."

Everyone laughed and said they knew, and since they had already graduated, Bai Yu had the audacity to yell at Tan Mo again, and then scowled when he met Tan Mo's smiling eyes, "Can you come?"

Tan Mo grabs his head and asks Qiao Lan, "Coming?"

"Come, come, come," Qiao Lan and Bai Yu promise that if they can come themselves, Tan Mo can bring them too.

After all, it was the last reunion, and we had all been classmates for two years and still had a good relationship.

Bai Yu is now relieved to run off to find the others.

When they had finished packing, Uncle Chan called to ask if they were ready, Tan Mo went out to answer the phone and Qiao Lan's phone buzzed.

Qiao Lan took out his mobile phone and saw the name on the WeChat message, and his brow furrowed without a trace.

Qiao Lan glanced up at the door and opened WeChat, reading the long message from Xiang Xiaohan carefully.

[You think Tan Mo is as sunny and innocent as you think he is? He's all lying to you.]

[ Tan Mo is a devil!]

Qiao Lan was about to write back when Tan Mo came in from outside after a phone call and Qiao Lan put the phone away again.

Tan Mo casually asked what was wrong, and Qiao Lan smiled and said, "Old Ben said in the class group that tomorrow is his treat."

"You take one," he said, happily deciding on the distribution of labour, Tan Mo carried the box and picked up the small school bag, "Let's go."

Tan Mo smiled softly and took the small school bag from Qiao Lan's hand, taking the push box and heading for the door.

Qiao Lan caught up with me, stating insincerely, "That's not good, I can take things too."

Tan Mo pulled the phone out of his shirt pocket and handed it to Qiao Lan, "You take it."

Qiao Lan looks at her phone and then at Tan Mo, who is coming down the stairs in style, and a smile fills her eyes.

Squeeze your phone and follow along with a bounce.
