i was my mistake

"Should it be there? It's raining, so it has nowhere to go."

"Will it rain?"

"Then it depends on whether there are any holes in the box... If not, the metal box is still relatively big, so it's probably fine to hide a kitten in it?" Wan Qing looked at Zhao Jinyu's neatly packed With a small face, she couldn't help touching her cheek lightly with her fingers.

Zhao Jinyu didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all, and even moved his face closer for Wan Qing to touch.

"I look better now."

"Really? It's actually because... I put on lip gloss today, look, here on my lips." She pursed her lips, "How is it? Can you see it?"

"It does seem to be much more pink than usual." Wan Qing was a little surprised, "Girls who study well usually don't think about makeup, do they?"

"Huh? It's not really makeup. Real makeup is very time-consuming. I just... just put on some makeup?" She smiled and took out a lip gloss from her jacket pocket, "Would you like to help Qinger apply it a little?"

"Huh? I don't need it... It's not autumn, and my lips are not so dry yet."

"When I went to the supermarket last time, I bought a blue one."

"blue?!"

"Yes."

"Will that work?"

"Occasionally... can I use it? Of course I wouldn't use it normally." Zhao Jinyu insisted on bringing the lip gloss over, Wan Qing could only let her dab it on her lips, "Okay, purse your lips? "

"Well, so?"

"Yes."

For Wan Qing, there seems to be no difference between lip gloss and lip balm, they just have more colors.

"It's like eating lard."

"Pfft, it's a bit oily and shiny, it seems to have been applied too much."

Wan Qing lazily narrowed her eyes and pursed her lips a few times. Just as she was about to say something, she felt a cloud of shadows beside her.

"Wan Qing, this is the list of national universities compiled by our class. There are scores on it over the years. You can see which university you can get into with your mock test scores. Set a higher goal for yourself. , and the goal of guaranteeing the bottom line, and then work harder.”

She looked up along the bony hand, and saw the thin face of teacher Dai, the head teacher.

"Oh...thank you teacher."

"It's okay, our class has sent it out before, and the ones you transferred from other classes haven't sent it yet. You have to look at it in advance, and you will have a direction if you have an accurate goal, and you won't be in a hurry when you choose a school."

"it is good……"

Teacher Dai turned around and walked towards the other students, while Wan Qing looked at the two thick booklets curiously, threw one on Ye Chen's desk, and opened the other by herself.

She also had a general direction before, that is to go to the north to study at a university, but it is really not clear which one it is.

Wan Qing is a southerner who has never been to the north, and she only has a vague impression of everything there.

The names of the universities in the brochure are arranged according to the minimum admission scores. The ones in the front are junior colleges, and the ones in the back are undergraduates. She first flipped to the back, glanced at the undergraduates, and then flipped forward a few pages.

Sure enough, in the south, you can only get a junior college grade, and with a few more points, you can get a bachelor's degree in the north.

"Have you decided which school to take the exam?"

"Jiaotong University in S City, try to see if you can get in, if not, go to East China Normal University."

"Universities in S City, it's not easy to take the exam..."

"I have a registered permanent residence in City S, so I took the college entrance examination there."

Wan Qing rolled her eyes: "Then pretend I didn't say anything."

"Where's Qinger?"

"Let me take my time."

"Well, let me help you refer to it."

"Okay, it's about four hundred and twenty thirty. You can look at schools of this level."

"College or undergraduate?"

"Can you go to undergraduate or undergraduate..."

"With this score, there are more undergraduates in the north."

"Yeah, I know that too."

Zhao Jinyu picked up his own book and turned it over. There were several corners folded inside, as if he had made some notes.

For Zhao Jinyu, the undergraduate course with a score of more than 400 is probably the last guaranteed choice, but she still takes it very seriously and has made a lot of preparations. Many schools have written notes next to them—these are some of her own ideas.

Some are very long, with a long paragraph, and some are just a few words, such as 'dislike' or 'can be considered'.

Wan Qing looked carefully, and listened to Zhao Jinyu's serious explanation by the way. She seemed to know a lot. In this era when the Internet is not popular at all, it is already quite remarkable to be able to learn so much detailed information. .

When Ye Chen came back, he saw the two heads together, talking intimately.

She pouted, and immediately sat on a chair and came over.

"what's the topic?"

"Have you washed your hands yet?" Wan Qing turned to look at her, the first sentence was this.

"... Wash it!" Ye Chen shook his still wet hands.

"Washed clean?"

"...What are you going to do, eat finger food?"

"It's nothing, it just feels like you smell like a toilet."

"……Hey!"

Wan Qing always changed the topic abruptly, she continued with her usual expression: "The brochure on your desk was sent by the head teacher, and it contains all the universities we can get into in the future."

"Oh...! Are you going to start looking now?" Ye Chen and Wan Qing pressed their faces together, and deliberately glanced at Zhao Jinyu.

Zhao Jinyu was a little dazed, wondering what she meant by staring at her with wide-eyed eyes.

"I feel that the schools that are more suitable for us are all in Province J."

"Province J? Oh...the place before the Puppet Manchuria." Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, and keywords such as 'the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty' immediately popped up in his mind.

The industrial development there is actually not bad, but with the opening of the economy, the center of the country has gradually shifted from the north to the south.

Province J, which was once considered a first-class province, has gradually declined over time.

There is also the hardest-hit area of ​​laid-off tide.

The wave of laid-off workers in the north is much crueler than that in the south...

"You said we should go to the Normal University in City C of Province J or the University of Chemical Technology in City J of Province J."

"Teacher? Isn't that a full-text subject?" Ye Chen was stunned again.

"Oh...it seems so, but unfortunately...I still think it's pretty good here."

"But there are many others to choose from..."

"Hey, wait, this score... is a little high?"

"Why, are you afraid?" Wan Qing gave her a sideways look.

"Cough! Oh, I see, this is the first choice, right?"

"Perhaps, second?"

"...Don't make trouble, you, this is still a middle-level undergraduate."

These two schools, in the future, will have two schools.

Universities in the north have an advantage, that is, even if the upper limit is not high, the lower limit is not too low.

"Why do universities in the south have higher scores..."

"The ones in province Z are even higher."

"That's right, the ones in City S are even more exaggerated." Ye Chen nodded in agreement.

"According to Qing'er and Chen'er's grades, I have thought about it for you before. If you are in the south, there are a few undergraduates you can try, and some junior colleges are also quite good. If you are in the north, you can choose the same score..."

Wan Qing watched Zhao Jinyu turn over the pages of the book with notes, and was a little dazed.

To be honest, at first she made such a friend just to make it easier to improve her academic performance.

friend?

...That's just because it's useful.

But what about Imyo?

She is probably really selfless.

She really regarded the two as good friends.

So I took all these things to heart, thought for them, and worried for them.

Even Wan Qing, who has been angered by many women and always speaks extreme things to women, has to admit that she is really a very good girl.

The wind with rain and humidity blowing from the window made the current evening sun feel extra gentle.

At this moment, she also felt a little empty in her heart.

They and Zhao Jinyu were destined to be separated—she would definitely be admitted to a university in S city, and they probably had to go to the north.

Even if they stay in the south, it is definitely not City H, but other cities in Province Z.

Even in the same city, it may be difficult to meet again, let alone so far apart.

She is used to parting, and at this moment, she especially does not want the day of the college entrance examination to come.

Time, please slow down...

The breeze gently blew across her cheeks, lifting her long hair, and her emerald green eyes seemed to fall into the surface of pebbles, causing slight ripples.

……

26. Imayo's towel

Noon, lunch break.

The classroom in Class [-] was as quiet as ever. Obviously most of the people were in the classroom, but it was like an examination room, only the sound of the test paper being flipped and the 'rustling' sound of the pen nib writing on the paper could be heard.

Occasionally, the sound of chairs moving can be heard. This small sound is a bit harsh in such a classroom.

After eating lunch, Wan Qing stuffed the spoon back into her schoolbag, and walked out of the classroom with Ye Chen.

The two of them walked down the corridor for a while, and then they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"call."

"It's really depressingly quiet in the classroom."

"Yes." Ye Chen nodded, "Why are you going to the fifth floor?"

"I should be here now."

"what?"

"It's a kitten we saw yesterday. It seems to have been abandoned by a big cat. Imayo is taking care of it."

"Oh..." Ye Chen pouted suddenly, "I just said why you weren't here at noon yesterday."

"You speak like a wife caught in a rape."

"……cough!"

Wan Qing rarely hides the thoughts in her heart, and she is not slow, so sometimes when she speaks too directly, it will make people feel unable to answer.

"right?"

"...I didn't." Ye Chen began to play dumb, "I just said casually, didn't we 'break up', I have no interest in you for a long time."

Wan Qing turned her head to look at her, almost putting a question mark on her forehead.

"...Can you play dumb once in a while? Why do you have to explain everything so clearly!" Ye Chen's face was slightly red, she puffed out one cheek and muttered, turning her head to the other side.
