Chapter 220: Chapter 219 End-of-Term Honors List

"Do you think I can publish a book in the future?" After much consideration, Han Mingyue still asked the question. Zhen Yu confidently said, "Of course! Your writing is so good! If you can publish short stories, you can publish novels; and if you can write novels, of course you can publish a book!"

Han Mingyue didn’t respond immediately; instead, she reviewed the articles she had published in her mind, and then quietly made a decision.

She wanted to try writing a novel!

Once she thought of it, she said it out loud, "I want to try writing a novel."

"That’s great! I want to try it too!" Zhen Yu replied in a heartbeat.

"Really?" Han Mingyue turned to look at her, "How about we write together?"

"No way! Let’s write our own!" After rejecting the idea, Zhen Yu thought for a moment before adding, "We can each write an outline first, then exchange ideas, and give each other guidance."

"Alright! I’m kind of impatient already!" Han Mingyue suddenly started jogging with Zhen Yu in tow, "Hurry up!"

"Slow down! Ouch!"

"What’s wrong?"

"Nothing, just slipped a little..."

"Phew! Sorry about that..."

"It’s really okay! You can’t write a novel in one day anyway, what’s the rush!" Zhen Yu shook her head with a laugh, "Walk slowly, and think about what you want to write."

"Okay!"

After the two returned to the Zhen Family home, each claimed a desk, burying their heads deep in thought about writing.

They were completely engrossed in their work, even neglecting the final exams next week.

The outline of the novel wasn’t finished yet when the day of the final exams arrived.

As usual, the exams would take two days, followed by posting the honor roll on Friday and a parent-teacher conference.

Mrs. Zhen had already talked with her son Zhen Yan over the phone, knowing his exam was next Thursday, so she had packed the washing machine ahead of time, waiting to attend her daughter’s parent-teacher conference on Saturday before heading to Qi City with Zhen Yu.

On the day of the parent-teacher conference, the friends went to school together to look at the honor roll.

Zhen Yu, as always, claimed the first place throne of the ninth grade, followed by Shen Qi and Han Mingyue.

The top three of the grade were from the same class.

"Bro! How come you’re still third? Can’t you push a little higher? If you can’t beat Zhen Yu, can’t you beat that Shen Qi?"

Han Mingyue gave his brother a faint smile and whispered in his ear, "I don’t want to be second!"

Han Jiayang rolled his eyes, instantly understanding his brother’s meaning, and laughed, "Right! She’s second! She’s the most second!"

This remark was not quiet at all. Han Mingyue glanced at Shen Qi’s back among the crowd ahead, feeling as if she had stiffened for a moment before shuddering.

Luckily, Han Jiayang only said it once, and Han Mingyue didn’t bother further.

The grades of the three poor students had improved to varying degrees, but in this honor roll, only Han Jiayang was tacked on at the end, with Bai Xue and her cousin Fu Yu nowhere to be found.

Since seeing Han Jiayang on the honor roll, Fu Yu had been pestering him non-stop, "How did you do it? Did your brother tutor you at home?"

Han Jiayang rolled his eyes as if he wanted them to reach the sky, "Isn’t that obvious? If he didn’t force me to study all the time, do you think I could do this well?"

Bai Xue, arm in arm with Zhen Yu, was practically hanging on her, laughing her head off.

"Hahaha... Han Jiayang, you’re feigning innocence after gaining an advantage, talking like you did badly!"

"You guys are too much!" complained Fu Yu, "Now it’s just my cousin and I who didn’t do well!"

Han Jiayang widened his eyes, a bit confused, and asked, "Didn’t you say after the exam that you got quite a lot right? How come now you’re saying you didn’t do well?"

Fu Yu said feeling stifled, "I mean compared to you guys! Compared to you! Only the two of us did poorly!"

At the drop of these words, Bai Xue suddenly became quiet.

Han Jiaoyang: "Uh..."

My friends are envious, jealous, and hateful of my progress, what should I do?

---

Zhen Yu glanced at Bai Xue’s expression, then at Fu Yu’s face, and gently said, "Come to my place for tutoring during the winter break!"

Upon hearing this, both Bai Xue and Fu Yu’s faces simultaneously showed a constipated look, but it quickly ’cleared up.’

"Okay!" Fu Yu responded first: "Is Zhen Yan almost back? I’ll have him teach me!"

Bai Xue glanced at her younger cousin, then turned to share a knowing smile with Zhen Yu, "I’ll count on you, Xiao Yu!"

Zhen Yu patted her chest and promised, "Don’t worry! We will definitely get into high school together!" and she silently added in her heart, "I’ll ensure you get into First High."

"Yes! I’ll work hard!" Bai Xue, who had been sitting at the same desk with Zhen Yu for the last six months, had been completely brainwashed by her!

Regarding Zhen Yu’s often-mentioned phrase ’the world is so big,’ Bai Xue thought, ’she also wants to see it! Preferably with Zhen Yu!’

The parent-teacher meeting was still ongoing for a while, and after everyone had checked the rankings, they returned to their respective homes.

Bai Xue went back to the Fu Family home with Fu Yu, where she played with her younger brother, Bai Yong, on and off while waiting.

This was the first time that Mrs. Bai had attended Bai Xue’s parent-teacher meeting since the divorce.

Previously when Bai Xue’s grades were poor, Mrs. Bai didn’t put much importance on her parent-teacher meetings, and it was usually Mrs. Fu who would go after attending Fu Yu’s and then take a detour to her class.

Last night she told her mother that she did really well this time, better than any other time! She hoped her mother would attend the meeting in person.

Her mother agreed.

Bai Xue couldn’t be sure of her ranking in the class because she had absolutely no idea how many points corresponded to which rank.

But she knew that her papers weren’t filled with blanks anymore; there were many questions she could now answer.

That should count as progress, right?!

With such hopeful thoughts, Bai Xue finally waited for her mother to return.

The moment Mrs. Bai appeared at the door, Bai Xue instantly stood up, and Fu Yu, who had been restless, also stood up.

"Mom!" Both cousins almost cried out in unison: "How did I do?"

Mrs. Fu and Mrs. Bai exchanged a look, both smiling.

"Not bad!"

"Pretty good."

"Son, what do you want to eat tonight? I’ll cook it for you! Mom never imagined that you would only fail in one subject! Before..."

Mrs. Fu sat down with Fu Yu and began to chatter away while Bai Xue’s eyes fixed unblinkingly on Mrs. Bai, waiting for her mother to give her an answer.

Mrs. Bai beckoned her daughter over, Bai Xue, pulling her brother along, got closer.

"Xue! Mom really thought, even if you had improved, with half of middle school already over, getting into high school was still uncertain."

"I didn’t expect! You’ve improved so much! Teacher Jiang said it was all thanks to your good desk mate! The child from the Zhen Family has been really good to you! You should get along well with her in the future, understand?!"

Bai Xue nodded vigorously, "Mom! What rank did I actually get?"

"24th!" Mrs. Bai’s eyes seemed to sparkle, her smile undisguised at the corners of her eyes and brows, "Girl! Your Teacher Jiang also said that as long as you keep it up, you’ll definitely get into high school! Mom believes you will keep working hard, right?"

"Right! Xiao Yu said she would tutor me during the winter break!"

"Haha... Good!"
