Chapter 373 The Fleeting Winter Vacation
Mu Zhengguang thought Xu wanted to see his score first, so he generously sent him the scores of his first two exams: 223 and 228.

Xu not only remembered her total score of the three subjects, she also remembered Mu Zhengguang's total score of the three subjects. The first score was not very accurate, so let's calculate it based on the second score. His comprehensive science score was also lower than the total score of the three subjects, about 3% lower?

Is my science score also 3% lower than the total score of the three subjects? That won’t work either! My total score of the three subjects is only slightly higher than his total score. If I also cut 3%, it will only be just over 230 points. This score is too dangerous.

Think about the future later, think about the present now. Xu didn't want to give him the score, so she found a new excuse: "What's the highest score of the four test papers you did? When I finish the four test papers, I will give you the highest score."

In the end, Mu Zhengguang did not send the adjusted 247 to Xu. He used this score to deceive himself and make himself happy. If he gave it to others, it would be too shameless.

242 points, not bad, if he can also get 242 points in the science comprehensive exam. No, 242 points is not his upper limit, nor is it my upper limit. There are still four months before the college entrance exam, and both he and I have to continue to work hard.

"That's amazing! The accuracy rate is over 80%."

"Hurry up and do the test. I want to see your highest score, too."

This sentence was followed by a very cute orange cat expression, but Xu's mood did not become lighter because of this expression.

I still have two chances, and I have to score more than 242 points at least once. Can I do it? The pressure is a bit high.

"I see. It's just two papers. I can finish them today."

After the chat, Xu immediately started to do the test papers. After finishing two papers, both scores were less than 242. Tomorrow is the Spring Festival. After dawn, he has to pay New Year's greetings and do housework. He may not be able to spare a full time to finish the test papers. He will stay up late at night and finish a few more papers until he exceeds 242 points!
Xu had hardly slept all night, six hours, three test papers, the highest score, 245. She threw away the test paper, sat on the bed, used up the last bit of consciousness, sent a 24.5 yuan red envelope to Mu Zhengguang, and then fell asleep immediately. But she was woken up by her family not long after she slept. Today is the first day of the Chinese New Year, and she has to get up early to pay New Year's greetings.

Xu looked at the message and found that the red envelope had been received, but the other party sent another red envelope of 24.2 yuan. Mu Zhengguang was quite smart. There was another message under the red envelope, "Happy New Year". She received the red envelope and replied "Happy New Year".

In the days after the Chinese New Year, Xu was busy visiting relatives. She had nothing to do at night, but she didn't want to do the test paper. Her efforts that night made her lose interest in doing the questions in the next few days. She carefully reviewed the wrong questions in the seven test papers, which was considered a review of the old and new.

My classmate Mu Zhengguang may be very busy. We chatted for a while on the first day of the Lunar New Year. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I sent him a message on the way to my relatives' house. He didn't send me any messages in the remaining days. I don't know how many test papers he has finished. A test paper may have eight or ten sets. He did two sets a day before the Lunar New Year and one set a day after the Lunar New Year. He should have finished it almost, right?

"Have you finished the comprehensive science test paper you bought?"

Since he changed his score from 236 to 247, Mu Zhengguang became more and more enthusiastic about doing comprehensive science papers, and he became more and more adept at changing scores, and later he even got high scores of 255 and 260. When the questions were simple but he didn't get the score he wanted, he would add points for himself according to his level, two points here and two points there.

He felt vaguely that this was a bit scary. When he was given extra points, he thought that 260 was his real level, but when he calmed down and thought about it carefully, he realized that this was not his real level, but his ideal level, the ideal level of getting all the questions he could do right. This level was not objective and did not even exist. Because of this, he was embarrassed to discuss the test paper with Xu again.

"finished."

"What's the highest score? Is it over 242?"

"No. What about you? Are you over 245?"

"You remember it so clearly. I haven't done any test papers these days, so my score is not above 245. Do you have time recently? Winter vacation is about to end, and I want to see you before school starts."

A few days ago, Xu went with her family to meet all the important relatives. There was one person who was more of a relative to her, and that was Mu Zhengguang, whom she had known for five years. In the one and a half years of getting along with him day and night, he went from being unpleasant to being pleasing to the eye, from being ignorant to being sensible. I saw him this way, and he probably saw me this way too. During the last winter vacation of high school, I wanted to see more of him.

"Yes. I always have time."

"Then let's meet at the entrance of the junior high school at 2:00 this afternoon."

"it is good."

After the chat, Mu Zhengguang washed his hair and changed into clean clothes and shoes.

She was standing there at the school gate, just like she was three years ago. No, she was more mature and more beautiful than three years ago.

Maybe he can’t be considered mature, but he just doesn’t look like a junior high school student anymore. He looks like a high school student, but not a high school student who is about to graduate.

This is not surprising, because she is only sixteen years old now, and her seventeenth birthday is in April.

Three years have passed, she has become more mature, have I become more mature too? My speech, behavior, way of thinking... must have become more mature. Otherwise, how could I stand by her side again like before.

Xu saw him coming and smiled at him, "Three years of high school will be over in the blink of an eye."

Mu Zhengguang pretended to be relaxed and said, "Well, time flies by so fast. The hardest and most tiring senior year of high school is already halfway over."

"More than half." Xu spread his left hand, palm facing down, and stretched out four fingers, then spread his thumb and retracted his index finger to form a circle. School started on February 2th, and the college entrance examination was on June 7th. The holiday was already before the college entrance examination. From the first day of school, the high school life was less than four months away.

Half? More than half? From the beginning of the third year of high school to graduation, it is about ten months. From now to graduation, it is about four months. More than half has passed, this is a fact. It sounds a bit regrettable.

"Actually, it's not that hard or tiring at all, right?"

Words of persuasion can also make people more sad. Xu said "most of it", and Mu Zhengguang was calculating the time. No matter how he calculated it, the result would not change. The time he had with Xu was running out. Xu said "it was not bitter at all, and it was not that tiring", which was also his idea. It was because of this idea that he could not accept the reality that the day of farewell was approaching without any pressure.

"Yeah. It's not bitter at all because I met you."

Since I was in the same class with you in my junior year of high school, I made up my mind to study hard and my grades went up.

Without you, I would be running and struggling on the road of learning alone. Even if my scores improved and I gained something, I would be exhausted and stuck in the vast sea of ​​questions. Even if I had no strength left and wanted to stop, I might not be able to do it.

Because I can see you in the classroom, whether it's your back, your hair, your side profile or your front face, it always makes me happy and makes me feel at ease.

No one can give me this kind of happiness except you. I see the fire of your life, and then there is more light and warmth in my life.
