Chapter 141: Chapter 141 Good News

"Sis, you’ve never had one before, right? These boiled eggs are so delicious." Zhou Siyu stuffed the egg into Shen Mianmian’s hand, "From now on, I’ll share half of whatever delicious food I get with you. I’ll fatten you up nicely, then you can marry into the city one day."

"Let’s hurry up, or else we’ll be late." Clutching the egg, Shen Mianmian took a seat on the rear of the bicycle.

With an egg to eat and a bicycle to ride, she wasn’t foolish enough to refuse either.

"Okay."

Zhou Siyu got on the bike and chatted sporadically with Shen Mianmian about the good things in the city. However, she had not visited the city many times, so her description wasn’t very detailed. She merely picked out the parts she thought were good to talk about.

For instance, the city streets were all paved with asphalt, so when it rained, there would be no mud sticking to your shoes; cycling was smooth and not bumpy, and there were many cars, as well as something called a bus...

Shen Mianmian listened quietly, eating her egg.

Halfway there, they encountered Lu Siyuan, who was standing by the roadside with his bicycle waiting for Shen Mianmian. Seeing her sitting on Zhou Siyu’s bike and chatting so animatedly, he couldn’t help but snort.

She dared to ride on Zhou Siyu’s bike? Was she not afraid of being dumped halfway?

That’s what he thought, but seeing that they didn’t intend to stop, he mounted his bike and followed behind them.

Approaching the school, Lu Siyuan pedaled swiftly a few times, overtaking the two and leaving them behind. When Zhou Siyu went to park her bike, he caught up with Shen Mianmian.

He pointed first at Zhou Siyu, then at his own head, "Is there something wrong with her ’up there’?"

Shen Mianmian rolled her eyes, "Even if you’re sick, she wouldn’t be."

Since when were eggs so precious?

During childbirth and postpartum confinement, eating ten or even eight eggs was considered plenty. Zhou Siyu was only fifteen and would go without in order to please her.

It was clear how much Zhou Siyu understood the art of give and take.

"Don’t compare her with me." Lu Siyuan frowned unhappily.

"Dramatic."

With a dismissive glance over her shoulder, Shen Mianmian strode into the classroom.

After the exams, everyone relaxed. The tense atmosphere that had prevailed before was gone, and the classroom was noisy and bustling with students chatting, mostly complaining about how difficult the exam questions had been this year.

They were also speculating about who would win the improvement award.

Wang Jingjing and Zhao Xinlan were discussing this issue as well, so absorbed that they didn’t notice Shen Mianmian enter the classroom; otherwise, they surely would have given her a disdainful look.

As soon as Zhou Siyu entered the classroom, Wang Jingjing called her over, "Who do you think will get the improvement award?"

"You, I guess!" Zhou Siyu sighed and said dejectedly, "I didn’t do well this time. I guessed on several questions."

"My Chinese wasn’t great, and neither was math. And don’t get me started on English. I’m afraid I won’t be getting it this time." Wang Jingjing looked distressed. She had hoped to bring the improvement award home to make her family happy, and luckily, she hadn’t mentioned it to them.

"If neither of you can get it, I definitely can’t." Zhao Xinlan spread her hands.

"That’s not necessarily true. This time it’s about who has made the most progress, not the score..."

Wang Jingjing hadn’t finished her sentence when Su Xiaohong rushed in from outside, running so fast that she slammed into Wang Jingjing’s desk before she came to a stop. Her face was flushed from exertion, and she said while panting heavily,

"I’ve got some good news for you."

"What good news?" asked Zhou Siyu.

"I just went to the bathroom, and on my way out, I bumped into..." Su Xiaohong swallowed a gulp of water, "bumped into Du Xiaohui coming out of the men’s room. He was telling someone that this morning there won’t be a discussion of the test questions; instead, we’ll all have to gather on the sports field..."
