Chapter 147: Chapter 147 Brother’s Middle School Examinations
Teacher Jiang turned his eyes over as soon as he heard Zhen Yu’s words, and now hearing Cao Yong’s question, he couldn’t help but laugh and say, "What are you saying! Every aspect of our class is good!"
"Hmph!" Cao Yong snorted disdainfully through his nose.
He turned his head and told Zhen Yu, "Talk about it after you pass the exam!"
Zhen Yu nodded her head, not pressing the matter further, and as she was leaving, she said, "Goodbye Teacher Cao, goodbye Teacher Jiang."
"Hey hey! Ok." Teacher Jiang replied with a laugh, and after she left the office, he said to Cao Yong, "Ah! It looks like I’ve got this student for sure. Look! She’s already saying goodbye to me in advance."
Cao Yong gave him a cutting look, "She’s a good seedling, make sure you teach her well!"
"Tsk! Don’t worry! I take care of my students way more than you do!"
"Pfft..." Teacher Qian, who had been pretending to be focused on lesson preparation, couldn’t help but burst out laughing when she heard this, "Old Jiang, you grinning tiger, can you stop praising yourself! You’re only better than Cao Heizi because of your face, what care are you talking about!"
"Sssh! Mind your image!" Teacher Jiang said seriously.

Time always seems to fly by before exams, and in the blink of an eye, the last weekend before the middle school exams had arrived.
On Sunday evening, Zhen Yu opened the System Mall.
It had been over a month since mid-May, and the 16 ability points she had left from last time had now grown to 57.
Having already planned to exchange for a double-time watch, Zhen Yu naturally did not look at other items to avoid being dazzled. She directly redeemed the [Lucky Fish Spirit Pill] and then closed the system.
With the pill in hand, Zhen Yu examined it closely.
It was just a black, glossy little orb, about the size of a marble, hard to the touch.
No idea what it tasted like? Anyway, she would not be the one tasting it this time!
After a good night’s sleep, Zhen Yu got up early to jog and practice some boxing, then had breakfast. Afterward, she called her brother over.
"Here! Eat this!" She didn’t beat around the bush, passing over the pill and a cup of water for him to swallow.
Zhen Yan picked up the black pill and examined it, "What’s this?"
"Eat!"
"Okay." Seeing that his little sister didn’t want to explain, Zhen Yan stopped asking. She wouldn’t scam him after all.
Watching her brother unconcernedly swallow the black pill, Zhen Yu figured it must at least be a normal taste.
Zhen Yu carefully checked her brother’s backpack to make sure he had all his papers and pens for the exam, then she sent him out the door. After watching him walk away, she turned around and went back inside.
Due to the middle school exams, Siying School had given the other grades a holiday, just to provide enough examination space for the candidates.
——
Zhen Yu had only sat in the room for a while when Han Mingyue arrived.
His backpack looked stuffed and heavy. As soon as he sat down, he asked knowingly, "Has Zhen Yan left?"
"Yeah." Zhen Yu watched Han Mingyue open his backpack to reveal a stack full of books and papers inside, "Why did you bring so many books? I have them here."
"The middle school exams will soon be followed by the finals, and then you’ll be up for the grade-skipping test. Are you really confident?"
"Haven’t you been studying with me all along?" Zhen Yu resisted the urge to roll her eyes as she responded.
Han Mingyue actually knew that her scores on the same papers they did together were comparable to his, but he still had a nagging worry at the back of his mind, afraid that there might be unexpected issues like out-of-syllabus questions.
"I brought over all this year’s papers. Let’s go over them again in the remaining two days."
Zhen Yu understood his concern. Just as she had made sure Zhen Yan was fully prepared but still worried he might not perform well, she silently nodded in agreement.
All morning, the small bedroom was filled with the rustling of pages turning and the scratching of pens writing. At 11 AM sharp, the alarm clock sounded, and Zhen Yu put down her pen to go to the kitchen to cook.
Just past 11:30, Zhen Yan practically shouted with joy as he rushed home.
"Little sister! Little sister!" As soon as he entered the house and saw Zhen Yu in the kitchen, he stepped forward and lifted her into a twirl.
"Let go, I’m cooking!" Zhen Yu was genuinely surprised and pleased to see him like this, but her face remained calm.
"Little sister! All the big questions you had me review were on the test! All of them! And I answered them all!" Zhen Yan’s eyes were wide with excitement, his face beaming with joy.
To match his mood, Zhen Yu deliberately added a few more words, "That’s great! Go rest in the room for a bit. Keep up the efforts in the afternoon!"
"Okay!" Zhen Yan nodded vigorously and dashed into the living room.
In a while, the living room was filled with the intermittent, sometimes loud, sometimes soft conversation between Zhen Yan and Han Mingyue.
——
By the time Zhen Yu finished cooking, it was noon, and Han Jiayang arrived right on time.
"It smells so good!" he said, sniffing the air.
As Zhen Yu carried dishes into the living room, she didn’t turn back and simply told him, "Wash your hands before eating."
"Got it!" Han Jiayang nodded obediently and followed her instructions. He had visited often enough to understand Zhen Yu’s ways—when she wasn’t in the mood, there was no point in arguing with her, as you could never win.
When there was a reason, you could speak up loudly; she would argue if she disagreed but never get angry over it.
In summary, it all came down to three words: be reasonable!
After lunch, Zhen Yan was pressed by his sister to lie down on the bed and rest his eyes, even if he couldn’t sleep. Despite that, while lying there with his eyes closed, Zhen Yan actually fell asleep.
Indeed, it’s all drowsiness in spring, lethargy in autumn, and napping in summer...
The Han Family Brothers didn’t go home either, they just took a break on the large kang in the living room.
When Zhen Yan woke up to the alarm, washed his face, and left for the exam, Han Jiayang was itching to slink away stealthily.
"Stop right there! What did you do this morning?" Han Mingyue, with a stern face, stopped his brother.
"I, uh, I..." Han Jiayang dared not admit that ’he went running around with Fu Yu for fun,’ but he couldn’t make up lies either because his brother would surely see through them. For a moment, he was stuck, unsure of what to say.
Han Mingyue could tell just by looking at his brother’s expression that he had neither watched TV nor studied.
"You’re going to review here this afternoon!"
"You’ve got to be kidding me?!" Han Jiayang wailed, regretting inside that if he’d known, he would have followed Fu Yu home for lunch.
"Come over and sit down!" As Han Mingyue said this, he set up the dining table at Zhen Yu’s house.
"Bro! Just leave me alone, will you? It’s not like I do well in studies anyways." Han Jiayang wore a face of ’I’m a proud underachiever’.
"You’re aware that you don’t do well in studies! Then you’d better study hard!"
"..." Han Jiayang took a deep breath, rolling his eyes exaggeratedly, "Bro! What’s the use of me studying for these two days! I’ll still end up at the bottom of the class."
"Every little bit helps," Han Mingyue said. "Bit by bit accumulates. It’s always better than not improving at all! Come on over here!"
Under Han Mingyue’s coercion, Han Jiayang reluctantly sat down at the table.
Zhen Yu, ever observant, had already gone to the small bedroom to get books and papers, leaving the living room for the Han Family Brothers to talk.
When she heard the noise outside stop, she then walked out of the small bedroom with the items in hand.
