Rebirth 07: Start adding points from elementary school students

Chapter 261 Underage

Early in the morning on the 26th, Li Yan dragged her suitcase and left the dormitory as her roommates looked on in envy and tears.

They arrived in the classroom at nine o'clock in the morning to wait for the announcement of final exam results and summer homework assignments, and then found that the person who appeared on the podium was the mathematics teacher Ye Xin.

"Teacher Guo has something to do today, so I'll substitute for him." Ye Xin adjusted his glasses, a little excited.

The reason for excitement... is that I can announce Li Yan’s score in person.

So when he announced this result, he was very dramatic, and his voice was trembling a little:
"Student Li Yan won first place in the grade with a perfect score of 760!"

Everyone applauded and looked back at Li Yan's empty seat.

Lin Zhengmo became the center of attention, so he mechanically turned his head and took a look.

Ye Xin didn't understand, why didn't the kids in Class Zero react to such god-level results?
Unfortunately, he missed the first time.

The more shocks you experience, the more numb you become.

"Where is Teacher Guo?" Su Ya suddenly asked.

"Something happened." This was the only answer Ye Xin could give.

Teacher Guo was serving as Li Yan's driver, driving on the highway to the airport.

Li Yan found Guo Qiwen before the exam and made a sincere request to him:

"I told my parents that someone from the organizing committee would pick them up after we got off the plane, and that the plane would also buy services for unaccompanied minors, but they were still worried about going to the airport. I don't think it's necessary for them to come here on their own, so, Mr. Guo, can you act as a guardian?"

"Take you to the airport?"

"See me off to the plane and tell my parents."

"Ok."

How dare I not agree, my dear ancestor?
Guo Qiwen asked Principal Tan for leave, and once he explained the reason, he didn't even need to write a note.

On the way, Guo Qiwen asked Li Yan to guess his score, and Li Yan only used two words: "full marks".

Ended the topic directly.

"You said that when you got off the plane, there was someone to pick you up?"

The Dragon Boat Festival in leap May is not a legal holiday. Only people in some areas insist on celebrating another Dragon Boat Festival, so there is no rush to return home. There are not many people on the highway now, so Guo Qiwen can chat with peace of mind.

"Teacher Guo's driving skills are average, right?"

"I really don't dare to say it's good. How can I say this?"

Li Yan smiled and said, "I noticed that you didn't speak when there were a lot of cars ahead and the road conditions were complicated."

...little bastard.

"Okay, let's not talk about this," Li Yan yawned. "The instructions from the organizing committee are quite detailed. They say that when we arrive, a line of minivans with hotel logos will pick us up. One will leave every half an hour until all the cars are picked up."

“So good service?”

"It's OK. They also have information. I won't wait foolishly. I replied to the email with the flight information and phone number as required. After receiving the call, I can check into the hotel with the invitation letter and ID card."

"I don't know how they deal with the issue of minors staying in hotels." Guo Qiwen said casually.

But Li Yan suddenly frowned.

"They... don't seem to know that I'm a minor."

"Ah?" Guo Qiwen was stunned.

"I used a pseudonym and wrote down my address when I signed up. The invitation letter was also sent directly to my address. The email only asked for my phone number and flight information, but I haven't received a call from that number yet... Maybe I provided my flight information, which means I will be there on time. I think I will use my ID card for the first time when I arrive at the hotel."

…Both people in the car were silent.

Indeed, for the competitions of the other three publishing houses, those who were eligible to submit works were basically famous writers. Mystery is also a small circle, so it is normal for people to change pen names. Who would have thought that the first prize would be won by a minor?
Any graduate student who can succeed is considered an amazing young talent.

Moreover, at that time, the ID number was still a very private thing and was rarely sent directly over the Internet.

It is normal to register at the hotel.

The light was dark this time.

"No, you won't be allowed to live there in the back, right?" Guo Qiwen expressed his concern.

"As for the organizing committee's matter, I followed the instructions. They just didn't notice it." Li Yan replied immediately, "It would be ridiculous if such a large organization couldn't remedy its own omissions."

"...Okay." Guo Qiwen originally wanted to ask whether he needed to buy a plane ticket temporarily to go over and act as a guardian.

His self-esteem no longer allowed him to bring it up.

New Taipei Dongshi Airport is a bit far from the city center, and Guo Qiwen drove for an hour and 40 minutes to get there. For him, who is not a very good driver, it was really tiring.

"If you're not wearing school uniform, you can't really tell that you're underage." Guo Qiwen looked at Li Yan, who was wearing a polo shirt and jeans.

"Wearing school uniforms was too conspicuous in the past." Li Yan smiled.

The two of them entered the terminal together, waiting for the ten o'clock flight.

"It takes three hours to get there. It's already one o'clock when we arrive at Shanghai International Airport. Shouldn't we be in the hotel at two o'clock in the afternoon?"

"I'm far away."

"……it is good."

"Have you ever been on a plane before, Li Yan?" Guo Qiwen seemed to have a lot of questions today.

"No."

Really not, I've never even been on one in my previous life. I'm already at the airport, but I haven't received any information yet, which confirms that I have no experience with flying.

"What do you think of airplanes?"

"fear death."

"..."

"If something happens to the plane, we're dead." Li Yan shrugged, "So I don't have a good impression of airplanes."

"Then you're still coming?"

"Because I want to show off."

"...Okay." Guo Qiwen took a long breath and adjusted his mentality. "I haven't been on a plane for several years. Before coming to New Taipei First Middle School, I was determined to become a writer. While working as a Chinese teacher in a small county, I flew around and saw the beautiful mountains and rivers of my motherland."

It was rare to see Guo Qiwen reminiscing about the past, and Li Yan was also very interested.

"I wrote a few articles every time I went to a place, and after traveling around, I accumulated quite a few works. Finally, they were published in Linjiang Literature and Art, and I earned a little fame." Teacher Guo, who had always been indifferent to fame and fortune, suddenly sighed heavily, full of resentment.

"Later, my mother got sick and had to come to New Taipei for medical treatment. In order to take care of her and to have money for treatment, I traded my fame for teaching in New Taipei, and finally I have come all the way to where I am today. My mother's illness was cured, and I have a pretty good job."

His recollections came to an abrupt end, and he didn't know whether it was interrupted by Li Yan's boarding and ticket checking information, or because he just didn't want to say anything more.

Compared with the many sufferings he has witnessed, Guo Qiwen's unwillingness is indeed insignificant.

As a son, he really had no room for dissatisfaction.

"Li Yan, although it may be a bit selfish, please help me see the scenery I haven't seen."

This was the last sentence Guo Qiwen said to Li Yan before he walked towards the boarding gate.

Teacher Guo, don't be so tragic.

It's me who's going to take the plane, not you, so I'd be a little scared!

Li Yan had never been on a plane, but the instructions on site were very detailed and she had no confusion about where to go.

It is still very shocking to see the plane up close, especially when you think about flying into the sky.

Human beings are truly amazing.

Li Yan glanced at the people around her who were walking hurriedly. Most of those who took the plane on a weekday were dressed in suits and ties. They must be on a business trip.

His seat was next to the window, and luckily, there was no one next to him.

After waiting for a long time, the sweet voice finally came, and the plane was finally about to take off.

Anyone who takes a plane for the first time likes to watch the scenery gradually disappearing from their view outside the window.

Apart from the feeling of oppression that makes some people feel sick, this is the only experience that makes them feel like they are in heaven.

It was very interesting and also made people think about it. Li Yan was fascinated by it.

So he didn't notice the stewardess standing nearby.

This young stewardess with a graceful figure and pretty face repeatedly confirmed the information in her hand.

"Economy class window seat... No. 17, it's him, right? An underage escort?"

The flight attendant walked forward a few steps and looked back at Li Yan.

"Is this 14 years old?"
