The next day.

  When Long Chao arrived at the classroom, it was already the second class in the morning.

  He went in from the back door and raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw that Shen Mingxiu, who was his deskmate, had moved to Ye Tian’s side.

  After class, he lay on Shen Mingxiu’s table. “I went to the canteen to stop someone in the afternoon. The first-year school bully said last night that he would replace me as the big boss in school.”


  Shen Mingxiu ignored Long Chao. He poked Zhou Li in front and asked him a math question.

  Long Chao was ignored. He pulled a long face and knocked on Shen Mingxiu’s desk. “Hey, I’m talking to you! Didn’t you already dislike that boy?”


  Shen Mingxiu looked up at Long Chao. “Don’t f*cking look for me for such things in the future. I just want to study and get into university. As for fighting, only a fool would do that!”


  Long Chao’s expression changed.

  Shen Mingxiu, this fool, was actually mocking him and calling him a fool?

  Long Chao rolled up his sleeves, looking like he was angered. “Shen Mingxiu, did you take the wrong medicine? We agreed to be brothers, is this your attitude? Get up, let’s talk outside!”


  Shen Mingxiu stood up. Qi Yuan and Li Lei also walked over and surrounded Long Chao. The three of them looked at Long Chao fiercely and Qi Yuan said, “Old Shen’s words are very clear. We’re not on the same path as you in the future. You’d better not provoke us again!”


  If Ye Tian and An Rui had not stopped them last night, they would definitely have fought with Long Chao today!

  Long Chao frowned and wanted to say something, but Shen Mingxiu said impatiently, “Get lost!”


  Long Chao clenched his fists and looked at them coldly before returning to his seat angrily.

  Seeming to have thought of something, he took out a box of chocolates from his bag and put it on Ye Tian’s table.

  After class, Ye Tian and An Rui went to the washroom and were not in their seats.

  The moment Long Chao put the chocolate on, Shen Mingxiu threw it into the rubbish bin.

  Long Chao was furious, the vein on his forehead twitching. “Shen Mingxiu, are you seeking death?”


  Shen Mingxiu glanced at Long Chao, his gaze colder and fiercer than his. “Long Chao, go and take a look at yourself in the mirror. How can you compare to Brother Yang? Would Ye Tian be interested in a bootlicker like you?”


  Long Chao said, “What the f*ck did you say?”


  Shen Mingxiu said, “In our hearts, Brother Yang will never be replaced. Who are you? Stop imitating Brother Yang in front of us!”


  Long Chao was furious with Shen Mingxiu and wanted to hit him, but Shen Mingxiu, Qi Yuan and Li Lei all glared at him fiercely. He was not their match alone!

  Long Chao thought that Shen Mingxiu and the rest were only interested in studying.

  In the end, after half a year of hard work, their results shot up to the top twenty of Class One and the top fifty of the cohort at the end of the second semester.

  One had to know that Nan Li was ranked in the top 200 and could get into a good university.

  It seemed more and more difficult for Long Chao to approach their plan.

  He could not get along with them at all.

  He wanted to chase after Ye Tian, but Shen Mingxiu and the other two protected Ye Tian very well. It was impossible for him to talk to Ye Tian.

  In their third year of high school, everyone had even less time to play. They were all preparing for the college entrance examination.

  Shen Mingxiu and the others had experienced the joy of studying after their grades improved.

  None of them were stupid. In addition, with the guidance of Zhou Li, Ye Tian, and An Rui, Shen Mingxiu and the others had become the model students of every subject teacher.

  Many teachers would mention the three of them in other classes. There were also teachers in Year One who would use their progress to motivate the disobedient students.

  There was no need to mention Ye Tian. Apart from that small episode when she deliberately did not do well in the first semester of high school, she had always been the model student.

  The time for the college entrance examination seemed to pass very slowly, but also very quickly.

  In a blink of an eye, it was June.

  The day before the college entrance examination, Zhou Ying gave her classmates a break.

  He asked everyone to rest at home and prepare for the college entrance examination tomorrow.

  Because their homework was solid, they did not need to cram. Under Shen Mingxiu’s orders, they went to the park for a barbecue.

  In the past two years, Zhou Li had helped Shen Mingxiu and the others a lot. After getting along, they had become good friends with Zhou Li.

  Zhou Li had good grades and did not talk much. He was not bad-looking, but he usually wore black-rimmed glasses and was dressed simply. He was not as eye-catching as those boys who dressed up.

  After looking at her for a long time, her eyes were beautiful, her skin fair, and she smelled like a scholar.

  A boy like him would definitely be discovered by many girls after he went to university.

  The boys were having a barbecue and they did not let Ye Tian and An Rui do it, so the two girls sat on the lawn and watched them work.

  An Rui leaned her head on Ye Tian’s slender shoulder. “Tiantian, do you miss Gu Yang?”


  Ye Tian pursed her pink lips, not knowing if she wanted to or not.

  She had not seen him for more than two years and did not know what he had become.

  “I’m not thinking about anything now. I just want to perform normally in the college entrance examination.”


  An Rui nodded. “Me too.”


  Ye Tian looked at An Rui. “What do you want to do the most after the college entrance examination?”


  An Rui’s eyelashes fluttered and she looked at Shen Mingxiu, who was barbecuing, with a slightly red face. “I…… want to make it clear to Shen Mingxiu that I think he seems to be interested in me!”


  A smile appeared on Ye Tian’s face and she poked An Rui’s waist. “It’s not just interesting, it’s very obvious, okay?”


  An Rui looked down, her cheeks turning even redder……

  On the day of the college entrance examination.

  Nan Zhi drove Ye Tian to the examination hall personally. She wanted to get out of the car but was stopped by Ye Tian.

  “Mom, if you get out of the car, you’ll probably cause a commotion.”


  Nan Zhi touched Ye Tian’s head and looked at her daughter, who was already slender and charming. Her beautiful eyes were filled with comfort and affection. “Okay, then I won’t get out of the car to make trouble for you. Don’t be nervous during the exam later and perform normally.”


  Ye Tian nodded obediently.

  Ye Tian got out of the car and waved at Nan Zhi.

  She was about to enter the examination hall when someone said, “Wow, isn’t that a new plane developed by our country not long ago? Wow, it’s actually above our examination hall. It’s so cool!”


  For a moment, many people who entered the examination hall looked up.

  Ye Tian could not help but look up.

  A plane was hovering in the blue sky. Suddenly, a pink smoke appeared at the back of the plane. The plane turned a few times in the air and the students below saw that the smoke had turned into two words: Good luck.

  Although it was fleeting, many people still saw it.

  “Oh my god, are the people on the plane cheering us on?”


  “He’s too handsome. There’s actually such a surprise for the college entrance examination!”


  Ye Tian stood on the spot, her slender body stiffening slightly.
