Chapter 370: Repeated Mock Exams
Cui Yunqing's patience was gradually disappearing. She wanted to control everything in the world of regret, to make Mu Zhengguang and Xu's efforts in vain, to make their determination vanish into thin air, and to make their kindness and courage disappear.

It's easy to do these things, such as a minor car accident, a serious cold, or oversleeping on exam day.

According to Yang Shuyu's bottom line, car accidents are definitely low-probability events, but what about colds? It doesn't have to be too serious, just choosing a good time can play a crucial role.

In this world, there is absolutely no one who is not bullied, there is absolutely no one who has a smooth life, and those who can grow up safely and become normal people are a minority.

But Mu Zhengguang seemed too normal.

In the second year of junior high school, if Xu is removed from his side, he will have new friends because he has the ability to make friends.

When his grades drop during his sophomore year of high school, he will study hard to bring his grades back to their original level, because in the real world, in the world of regret, his IQ has not changed and his efforts have paid off.

What kind of test should be given to them next? Where exactly is Mu Zhengguang's regret hidden?

Family, kinship, friends, friendship, love, scores, which one is his biggest weakness?

It’s all Yang Shuyu’s fault!

If it weren't for Yang Shuyu, I would only need to add a small probability vicious incident to the original story to destroy "Xu Yingze" and let Mu Zhengguang fall into the cage of regret.

To be more specific, if I had let Mu Zhengguang see Xu Yingze's miserable condition or hear the news of her death during the winter break of his freshman year in high school, the story could have ended at that time.

However, Yang Shuyu does not allow me to use people in the world of regret to impersonate or replace people in the real world. In the world of regret where Mu Zhengguang is, there is no Xu Yingze, only "Xu".

"Xu" is far inferior to "Xu Yingze", but she is also a very normal person. When her grades drop, he will also study hard, which is really annoying!
Why can't they just relax a little bit? Why do they all want to be better? Let them be better.

Life is so long, bad things will happen to you, I can afford to wait.

After the first mock exam, the teacher changed the seats of all the students in the class, and the basis for the change was mainly the test scores.

Xu sat in the middle aisle seat in the third row, and Mu Zhengguang sat behind Xu.

Among the girls, Xu's grades were excellent, so it was normal for her to get a middle seat. Among the boys, Mu Zhengguang's grades were not excellent, so his seat should not have been so excellent, but Cui Yunqing could manipulate people, things, and objects in the world of regrets, and change the development trend and trajectory of the original things, so that people could get what they wanted.

After adjusting their seats, the distance between the two was very close, as close as if they were sitting at the same table.

Mu Zhengguang tore off a sticky note and wrote on it: Can we talk in the classroom?

His own name was written below this sentence.

Fold the paper in half, then fold it in half again, write Xu's name, and then throw the note on Xu's desk.

Xu received the note.

Can we talk in the classroom? Is it necessary to ask such a question? Is our relationship not so bad that we can't even say a word?

Xu turned back, let go, and the note fell: "Yes."

"I shouldn't have laughed at you in English class that day. I'm sorry."

"It's okay. It's such a small matter. No need to apologize. I also laughed at you when you were criticized by the math teacher. You wrote the sum and difference formula wrong, right?"

tan(α+β)=(tanα+ tanβ)/(1 - tanαtanβ). At that time, Mu Zhengguang couldn't remember the formula at all, but now he can use the formula skillfully, otherwise he would not have scored 122 points.

Mu Zhengguang put away the note: "Yes. I shouldn't make mistakes again in the future."

After getting rid of the shadow of probability and derivative, Mu Zhengguang adapted to a round of math review. He practiced questions selectively to consolidate the knowledge points he learned. In addition, the test paper was relatively simple, as well as some subjective and objective reasons, his scores improved by leaps and bounds.

The math teacher also said when he was talking about the test paper that the questions in the first mock exam were not difficult, and this was the case for all subjects. The school was afraid that if the questions were difficult, students would lose confidence. Xu's math score was 119, slightly lower than Mu Zhengguang's. She was happy to see that Mu Zhengguang's math score was higher than his, and she was also happy to see that Mu Zhengguang's total score was lower than hers.

The two of them were very close to each other, and they talked and passed notes more often.

Sometimes, Mu Zhengguang couldn't understand why he and Xu had so much to say, and the other party also had a lot to say to him.

How can I describe this feeling? Is it love? Not really. Our behavior is different from those couples in the class.

Maybe it is friendship, a strong but pure friendship. There is liking in friendship, but this liking is not love.

The second mock exam was held in early November, less than forty days after the previous mock exam.

The questions became more difficult, Mu Zhengguang's score dropped to 557, and Xu's score was 563.

Xu's seat did not change, but Mu Zhengguang's seat changed slightly, moving to the left, to the aisle on the left. Sitting behind Xu was another boy.

I should have talked to her more.

The direction I looked at the blackboard was the same as the direction I looked at her, so I could also see her when I looked at the blackboard. It seemed not bad to look at her "from afar" like this.

The regret is obvious and fleeting.

Cui Yunqing thought she had found her opportunity.

Mu Zhengguang's regret is not about his score. To be precise, he can control his score to a certain extent. Those things that he cannot control and suddenly lose may make him immersed in regret and unable to extricate himself.

He would feel regretful if he suddenly lost the middle seat and the two of them were separated.

He must feel regretful for suddenly losing Xu's attention, right?
So, how to make Xu stop paying attention to him? Make Xu disappear, or make her like someone else?

The former belongs to the category of low-probability events, while the latter is definitely not a low-probability event. Betrayal by friends and friends having new friends are very common.

But, given Xu's character, will she choose to betray?
Yang Shuyu didn't say that I couldn't manipulate Xu's mind and body. I manipulated her and made her betray Mu Zhengguang, and this was not against the rules.

However, would Mu Zhengguang like someone who betrayed his friend? If he didn't like it, then such betrayal would be meaningless. When he regarded Xu as an enemy, he would feel hatred, not regret.

How should we strike the right balance? Can making friends with a person of the opposite sex be considered a betrayal? Probably not, right?

If Mu Zhengguang is a petty person, then Xu's meeting with the opposite sex is a betrayal in his eyes. Betrayal breeds hatred.

But Mu Zhengguang was not a stingy person. Was he so tolerant that he could turn a blind eye to Xu's friends of the opposite sex? If so, what reason did he have to feel regret?

This beautiful dream that lasted for more than five years can be shattered, but the shattered dream must become the nutrient of regret, otherwise it would be too unprofitable.

Cui Yunqing thought about it, but couldn't think of a foolproof plan, so she decided to let things take their course and stand by and watch.

The dream continues.

The old friendship is gradually being restored.

Xu's advantages are more than ever.

He also has more advantages than before.

From the first year of junior high school to the third year of high school, from ignorance to maturity, both of them have experienced this change. At this time, they are more qualified than ever to make a promise.
