Chapter 420 Sense of Achievement

Time flies.

After the school trip came to a successful conclusion, the teaching rhythm of Shirakawa High School returned to the fast pace of the past.

For senior high school students, the final exam of the first semester will affect many things, such as the decision to enter a higher school that is imminent and must be considered as soon as possible. For example, the most intuitive and most affecting person's state of mind , confidence in future exams.

For high school sophomore students, the final exam has been given another level of meaning. Although the exam is still stressful, it is more of an expectation. Many people are already full of energy to prove that they are good at different subjects. There is nothing wrong with your choice.

As for most students in the first year of high school, they were subtly brought into the overall learning atmosphere of Shirakawa High School. There was a sense of tension, but compared to the second and third years of high school, it was much less.

Therefore, under the influence of such a learning atmosphere, both teachers and students seemed to have turned into a wound clock. Between the rotation of the hour and minute hands, they began to desperately strive for the rest of the semester. study time.

Jingle Bell.

In the empty campus, the short reminder bell rang as scheduled according to the set procedure. Kitagawa Che, who had already checked the papers twice, raised his head and looked at the invigilator in front of the podium.

This is the reminder bell before the end of each subject.

When the bell rings, it means that there are only 25 minutes left before the end of the exam.

'Do you want to hand in the paper? '

In front of the podium, the invigilator who noticed Beichuan Che's gaze raised his eyebrows and gave the latter a questioning look.

'Yes'

Kitagawa Che nodded, raised his hand to indicate that he would hand in the paper in advance, then picked up his pencil case and walked out of the classroom.

This final exam is much more difficult than the final exam in the first year of high school. Many subjects have become more difficult or more professional because they are divided into liberal arts and sciences.

In some subjects, the degree of unpronounceability of proper nouns is visibly improved to a higher level.

But in terms of overall difficulty, it is within an acceptable range.

It was obvious that the senior teachers who were responsible for setting the questions were not confused and did not stump the students just for the sake of stumping them.

However, after the exam, the overall score is another matter.

But he estimated that the overall situation should not be bad.

As for the battle for the top [-] students this time, if nothing else, it will be much more intense than the last monthly exam.

However, this is just his personal speculation.

Coming out of the stairwell of the teaching building, Beichuan Che saw Beiyuan Rinyin sitting on the bench next to the flower bed waiting for him from a distance.

The next moment, as if she had a tacit understanding, she also raised her head and looked at him.

The eyes of the two met in the air.

When their eyes met, Kitagawa Che smiled at his fiancée, then quickened his pace and quickly came to her side.

"Have you been waiting for a while?"

There was a little more apology in his voice.

On weekdays, he boasts that he is already very fast in answering questions, but compared with his family members, Rinne Hoiwon and Myo Eshima, it can only be said that there are differences between people.

"It's only a few minutes."

Beiyuan Linyin smiled sweetly, shook her head, and then stood up.

She has actually been waiting for almost 15 minutes.

But so what?
She was willing to wait for him.

"Then, shall we go home?"

Kitagawa Che pointed at the road ahead.

"Ah."

Beiyuan Linyin nodded slightly, walked to Beichuan Che's side, and took the lead.

At this time, the campus was empty. On the road out of the school, there were only the regular chirping of cicadas and the spots of light shining on the ground through the leaves of the green trees.

This is the advantage of handing in papers in advance, as you can avoid the huge crowds after school.

"Miao should be home by now."

Beiyuan Linyin's voice was soft.

"Did she come out earlier than you?"

Kitagawa Che slowed down his pace a little, and his face showed a bit of surprise.

In his impression, in terms of speed in solving questions, Miaobi Rinne was only slightly faster.

"Yes." Beiyuan Linyin answered Beichuan Che's question while looking around quietly and quietly. After confirming that no one was paying attention to them, she safely held her fiancé's hand. Hand, then said the following, "Miao said, today's exam is over, logically speaking, we should celebrate.

"So, she answered some questions faster and handed in the papers earlier and went home."

After saying this, she lowered her eyebrows, and a touch of disappointment flashed across her eyes.

Speaking of this, she actually felt a little frustrated.

When she was at Fujiwara Private Academy, she could be said to be unrivaled in terms of grades, speed and accuracy in answering questions.

But since she transferred to Shirakawa High School, she, the number one student in the school, was forced to drop to the second place in the school.

Miao was given a hard lesson.

As the saying goes, there are people outside the world, and there is heaven outside the world. It is nothing more than this.

"She's alone...does she have enough food at home?"

Kitagawa Che originally wanted to ask, 'Can she be busy alone?' But when the words came to his lips, he suddenly remembered the figure performing in the kitchen, and he changed his words temporarily.

The Beichuan family's refrigerator usually stores two to three days' worth of ingredients. Today, it happened to be stuck the day before the purchase.

So theoretically speaking, if Miaozhen wanted to show off her skills and cook a big meal, the ingredients at home would most likely be plentiful.

"Have you forgotten, Che? Miao went out for shopping last night."

Beiyuan Linyin reminded her fiancé.

Miao did go out last night, but Kitagawa Che was working in the study at that time, so she might not have noticed.

"Besides, even if Miaoxian doesn't go shopping." Beiyuan Linyin paused and added meaningfully, "Given how often Shiori and Rina-san have been bringing ingredients home recently, no matter what Miaoxian does, There are enough ingredients.”

God knows what happened to Bai Yuan Shiori recently. She also started to imitate Sister Rina and bring top-quality ingredients to her home from time to time.

The most important thing is that every time she takes ingredients, she brings a large bag of snacks.

Miao specifically mentioned it to her this morning when she was cooking. The Beichuan family's current snack reserves have been exhausted.

"...I really didn't pay attention." Kitagawa Che laughed and laughed, frankly admitting that he didn't pay attention, and then naturally changed the topic, "Speaking of which, how difficult does Rinyin think this exam is?"

The difficulty level of the exam is actually a classic pony crossing.

Some people find it suitable, while others may find it difficult. Likewise, some may find it particularly easy.

But, as the saying goes, there are always exceptions.

Hokion Rinne and Ejima Myotsu are not included in this 'pony crossing' category.

The sensitivity, or objectivity, of these two girls in this regard is far stronger than that of him, a time traveler.

The evaluations they give every time are very pertinent and in line with most people's intuitive feelings about the exam.

"It's a little more difficult than the last final exam of the previous school year, but it's not particularly difficult." Beiyuan Linyin thought for a moment and added a more appropriate description, "For example, it's a bit difficult. Subjective example.

"It's like the difficulty level has been increased from 65 points to 75 points."

To put it bluntly, it’s a little difficult.

"Then we have to hear Rina-san's wails again this time?"

Hearing this, Kitagawa Che joked with a smile.

Whenever a student in the class does not do well in the exam, Rina Toshima's expression will be visibly disappointed, as if she has lost her dream. On the contrary, she will look excited.

Take for example the teasing made by everyone in Class A of the second year of high school. Before knowing the results, just go to the office and secretly take a look at Rina-san's expression.

Anyway, it’s very easy to identify.

"Not necessarily."

Beiyuan Linyin shook her head and did not agree with Beichuan Che's teasing.

At this point, she still has a say.

After all, there were too many people from the girls' circle who came to her to ask questions during recess after class.

But it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. At least in terms of teaching skills, she can be said to have improved a lot compared to last year.

Moreover, the more frequently she is asked for advice, the more likely she is to have an idea of ​​the performance of everyone in the class.

Judging from the level that everyone showed in the last monthly exam, the difficulty of this final exam is within the range that most people in Class A can perform normally.

"Rinyin is very confident."

Beichuan Che didn't mind either and happily picked up the conversation.

The two of them had now walked up the last gentle slope before leaving school.

"That's for sure!" Beiyuan Linyin straightened her nose a little proudly, "You don't even look at who is giving lectures to the students."

At this point, she has always been very proud.

only……

"So why didn't you want to be the study guidance committee member in the first place? If I remember correctly, everyone voted for you, right?"

Beichuan Che turned his head and teased his fiancée.

What a coincidence, she happened to be standing in the sunshine at this moment.

The sunlight covered by the treetops and leaves just fell on her body. Under the action of the light, the milky white skin seemed to be covered with a layer of light, as delicate as silk with excellent texture.

"Interest is interest, work is work." Beiyuan Rinyin shook his head, "If I really become a study guidance committee member, then I may not be willing to give lectures to everyone, because it will make me feel uncomfortable at work. a feeling of."

She didn't want to start killing her hobbies when she was a student. "Too."

Beichuan Che withdrew his gaze and nodded thoughtfully.

From the moment interest turns into work, the nature of many things has begun to change.

"After today's exam, it's summer vacation tomorrow."

After coughing slightly, this time it was Beiyuan Linyin who took the initiative to start talking.

In fact, if possible, she didn't want to mention it at this time.

But if I don’t mention it now, I’m afraid I’ll have to wait until the Year of the Monkey for a suitable opportunity.

"Yes, has Rinyin figured out where to go?"

Ah.

Kitagawa Che chuckled in his heart, and understood the girl's subtext.

He still knows his pillow person quite well.

"Hum~"

Seeing that Beichuan Che was rarely enlightened and did not let himself remind him, Beiyuan Rinyin's mood suddenly became clearer again.

She smiled evilly and whispered, "In most literary and artistic works, decisions like this are usually made by the head of the family."

"And the head of our family..." She winked playfully, with a hint of coquettishness in her slightly cold voice, "It's Che."

This was a joke, but she also meant it.

She hoped that her fiancé would be more enlightened and come up with a good travel plan.

This……

Beichuan Che's Adam's apple moved, and his heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate a little.

She is so good at it!
But there's no point in being excited about things that haven't been decided yet.

"But..." Turning his head, Kitagawa Che coughed slightly and expressed his thoughts tactfully, "Travel plans cannot be decided on the spot."

It wasn't that he was trying to shirk or didn't want to make travel plans, but that he had never had any talent for the word 'travel'.

It's okay to ask him to arrange a specific itinerary, such as where to go today and where to go tomorrow after the plan is set, but it would be too difficult to ask him to slap his head and decide where to go immediately. .

After all, whether before or after time travel, he seems to have nothing to do with the joke, 'Youth has no price, just sit straight and get LS'.

For him, his logical approach has always been more in the safe direction, which is the so-called thinking carefully before making a decision.

In this regard, he is indeed just like Kiriyama Taku complained about, lacking the vigor and vitality of young people.

"Does Che mean it takes time?"

Beiyuan Rinyin blinked.

"Yes." Kitagawa Che nodded and gave an affirmative answer, "In addition, we may need to consult You and Miao for their opinions."

Because to him, it doesn't matter where he goes.

Anyway, when traveling, his mentality has always been very straight. His main focus is to relax and 'study with the prince'.

"..."

After the words fell, Beiyuan Linyin gave this guy a charming look.

I am addicted to asking standard answers to this stupid question.

But I couldn't say anything to him yet.

Kitagawa Che honestly accepted his fiancée's look, and then explained in a calm tone, "To be honest, if I decide on my own, I might be able to surprise you He Miao.

"But more likely it was a shock.

"But isn't the purpose of traveling just to relax? If the place you go to is not to your liking, then wouldn't the purpose of traveling be achieved?"

In this kind of matter, he would rather be the iron man who doesn't understand the style, than be the one who makes his own decisions and makes everyone unhappy in the end.

"..."

Beiyuan Linyin did not answer, but sighed helplessly and tightened the hand she held with him, taking it as a way to express her small dissatisfaction.

The two of them quietly walked through the school gate and officially embarked on their way home.

"Then the three of us will discuss it at night."

After walking a certain distance, Beiyuan Rinyin finally chose to take the initiative again, breaking the silence between the two.

"No problem." Beichuan Che responded, and the hand he held with Beiyuan Rinyin unconsciously tightened a little harder, and led her to the inside of the sidewalk, "Also, this summer vacation, find some time, Shall we go back?"

A few days ago, Beiyuan and his wife called. They probably meant that since they are on summer vacation, they should find time to go back and have a casual meal or something.

He thought about it and agreed.

"Okay." Beiyuan Linyin responded subconsciously at first. The next second, she seemed to realize something and asked, "Did your parents call you?"

Based on her understanding of Beichuan Che, Che would only ask her in this sentence pattern if her parents called her.

"...are you so sure?"

Beichuan Che's face showed a bit of surprise.

In a sense, it is not good for the person beside you to know yourself too well. At this time, there is no way to lie.

"Why not?"

Beiyuan Linyin raised her eyebrows quite proudly, and the hands held by Beichuan Che tightened unconsciously.

"Besides." She bit her thin lips gently and her voice suddenly became much softer. "If Che feels that dad is a little difficult to handle, we can find a reason to refuse and not go back. Anyway, we only went back last month. once."

She could tell that every time he went back, Che would always feel an indescribable sense of helplessness.

It's not that he hates going back, or that he doesn't get along well with his parents, but just because his father always mentions some career matters and then asks questions.

In the past, it was fine. After all, the number of times they were 'tortured' was very small. This year, they went back a lot more times, and there were relatively more speechless moments.

"Hey, don't think too much!" Kitagawa Che immediately interrupted his fiancée, "I don't dislike this. Besides, it's good to go back."

Aunt Beiyuan's cooking skills are first-rate, but he still hasn't learned the secret recipe until now.

Now, every time he takes Linyin and Miao back, he has only one idea, to learn this 'unique' cooking method as soon as possible.

"Okay, I'm just afraid..."

Beiyuan Linyin hesitated for a moment, but still didn't finish her words.

"So." She smiled and shook her head, her tone returning to the natural tone before, "Back to the topic, is there anything Che wants to eat in the past two days?"

"Cooking?"

Beichuan Che stayed for half a second, then looked at Beiyuan Rinyin with some doubts.

He didn't quite get the reason why the other party suddenly mentioned this matter.

"Uh-huh." Beiyuan Linyin gave him a "Isn't this what it should be?" ' The look in his eyes said, "After all, the exam is over, as Miao said, we have to celebrate.

"Then, there must be public celebrations, but also private celebrations. For a small thing like this, no matter what you say, you have to open it quietly.

"Not to mention that after the summer vacation begins, you will be the busiest person in our family.

"Therefore, the reward that you deserve must not be missing."

This was one of the few things she could do for him.

"So, what kind of dishes do you usually cook?"

Seeing his fiancée's appearance, Kitagawa Che thought for a moment, then stopped refusing and told her what he wanted to eat.

There are many dishes that Linyin can cook, but those are always the ones that suit him best.

"You mean fried pork chop?" Beiyuan Linyin hesitated, a little unsure.

After all, she cooks too many dishes on weekdays.

"Yes." Kitagawa Che nodded slightly, with a hint of expectation visible to the naked eye, "There are also some other side dishes, such as the beef tongue you grilled that time, it tasted very good."

Speaking of charcoal-grilled beef tongue, he was already greedy.

God knows where Lin Yin learned the cooking skills from, and the charcoal-grilled beef tongue she makes is amazing.

The only pity is that he did a little less that time. He only took two chopsticks and they were already empty.

"no problem."

Beiyuan Linyin readily agreed.

As a chef, the happiest moment is when your food is recognized by diners.

As the chef of the Beichuan family, her happiest moment was when her fiancé liked the dishes she made.

"Are there any other dishes?"

Beiyuan Linyin followed the trend and asked.

She hadn't talked about this topic with her fiancé for a long time.

Now that we were chatting, she was quite interested.

"some."

Beichuan Che nodded without hesitation.

Like this, there is so much he can say.

"Then keep talking!"

Beiyuan Rinyin blinked and put on a 'you tell me, I'll remember' look.

She has already thought about it, and she will take advantage of this opportunity to show off her skills!
