"Hurry, hurry, move the tables and chairs away..."
"Everyone, remember, everything will be done in accordance with the college entrance examination. No whispering is allowed. Please hand in your mobile phones and everything else..."
The next day, Monday.
Xingcheng No. 3 Middle School got busy early in the morning. Surprisingly, students were not allowed to study during the morning self-study period. Instead, they moved tables and chairs.
Today is another round of monthly exams. This is probably the last mock monthly exam before the college entrance examination. In one month, it will be the real college entrance examination.
It is precisely because of this that this time it was made more formal, the distance between desks and chairs was further increased, and classes were divided into classes. Even the subject teachers were staggered to invigilate the exam.
Xia Xu and Tang Youxin were quite lucky. The randomly selected examination room was in their own class, which saved them the effort of running around and finding seats.
"Xia Xu, remember, you must pass everything, otherwise you will call your parents."
After instructing the students to arrange the examination room, Liu Xiulan came over to give instructions before leaving.
"Sure."
Xia Xu confidently made an 'OK' gesture and said with a smile: "Teacher Liu, to be honest, my grades before were just to control my scores and keep a low profile. This time it is the last mock test before the college entrance examination. I will definitely take it."
Use all your strength and wait for the good show."
He was trying to find a reason for himself in advance for a sudden increase in his grades.
Last time, he had used the super-brain potion to memorize all the high school textbooks thoroughly. If it was used to prepare for the exam, not to mention full marks, it would definitely be no problem to score more than 100 points.
He has never thought about hiding his clumsiness. There is no need to do so. What is there to hide with an insignificant test score? He is not interested in playing tricks with a group of high school students in school.
Secondly, he also considered that the sudden increase in his grades may indeed be a bit unexpected, so he first laid the groundwork before the college entrance examination. Through this exam and the following month, he first let the people around him accept the fact that he had become a top student.
.
Even if there is any trouble caused by this, it is better to be questioned or controversial in school than to have a similar situation in the college entrance examination.
"Okay, then I'll see how you perform."
Liu Xiulan didn't feel any emotion because of Xia Xu's words. She just thought he was making jokes again, nodded slightly and left.
As the head teacher of Xia Xu's class, she naturally cannot invigilate her own class. The exam will start in a while, so of course she has to invigilate the exam.
"Why did Teacher Liu say to call your parents?"
After Liu Xiulan left, Xiao Baihua, who had been quietly paying attention to Xia Xu, came over curiously and asked.
Fortunately, most of the students had already left the classroom to find their own examination rooms at this time. Otherwise, with her introverted and shy temperament, she would not take the initiative to come to Xia Xu when there were too many people.
"Why else? If your grades are bad or you fail, just call your parents."
Xia Xu shrugged and spread his hands.
"But you..."
Tang Youxin subconsciously wanted to ask, but she reacted and stopped talking.
"No need to do this, you want to ask me where my parents are from, right?"
Xia Xu smiled and touched Xiao Baihua's head, and said with a bad smile: "Teacher Liu only said to call the parents, but did not say whose parents he called."
Tang Youxin's face was red and she avoided Xia Xu's mischievous hand, but the curious baby couldn't help but asked, "Can the teacher call other people's parents when they call them parents?"
"Yes, let's call you parents."
Xia Xu still smiled mischievously: "It's you who brought it on. Last time you took the monthly test, your grades dropped so badly that Teacher Liu suspected that I had influenced you. If we don't do well in the test again this time, we'll call our parents."
"
"Ah? Then... what should we do?"
When Tang Youxin heard this, her face was suddenly filled with nervousness, and her hands unconsciously grabbed the hem of her clothes.
Xia Xu shrugged: "What else can you do? Of course you have to take the test seriously. You have to be more serious this time. If your grades still don't improve, maybe Teacher Liu will really find your parents."
"But you...you..."
Tang Youxin's face was filled with tension and confusion: "What should you do? Can you pass the exam?"
Xia Xu's grades have always been at the bottom of the class. As a classmate, there is no need to know this.
"I……"
Xia Xu paused slightly.
At this time, people with low emotional intelligence will say: I can easily get full marks now.
And high emotional intelligence...
"Well, you should know that my grades have not been good, and I have not been focusing on studying in the past two months. I originally didn't care about this aspect, but I didn't expect that Teacher Liu could come up with such a damaging trick...
"
Xia Xu pretended to sigh.
When Xiao Baihua heard this, she said naa: "Then... what should we do?"
"We can only try our best."
Xia Xu looked like he was sacrificing his life for justice and dying generously: "In order not to embarrass you, I have been reviewing it using the review materials you gave me last time, and I will try my best to pass the exam."
"Then...then you must work hard."
Tang Youxin's face turned a little red because of this 'for you'.
"Don't worry, I promise you, I will work hard to pass this time."
Xia Xu nodded solemnly, then changed the subject and said, "But you have to work hard yourself. If your grades are not good, Teacher Liu will definitely call your parents."
"Uh-huh."
The little white-flowered chicken nodded repeatedly like pecking at rice, its little face full of seriousness and solemnity.
"In fact, I read in a psychology book that an appropriate reward and punishment mechanism can stimulate people's potential and bring them into a state of 'flow' where they are extremely focused on efficient work and study."
Xia Xu rolled his eyes and said quietly: "What do you think of this? How about we make a bet?"
"What bet?"
Tang Youxin asked doubtfully.
"You kiss me if I pass, and spank you if you fail."
Xia Xu smiled evilly and leaned into her ear, whispering.
"no."
The little white flower's face was red, she was extremely shy, and her rationality suddenly took over the high ground again.
"Then there's nothing we can do about it. Do your parents like anything?"
Xia Xu lamented.
"ah?"
Tang Youxin failed to keep up with Xia Xu's jumping thoughts.
"There is a high probability that you will fail this time. I can only go to your house to get vaccinated and bring some gifts before Teacher Liu calls the parents."
Tang Youxin lowered her head and looked at her toes. The red color on her face had moved from her cheeks to her ears at some point. Her voice got louder and louder, and by the last few words it was like a muffled whimper.
"Ah? What did you say? I didn't hear clearly."
Xia Xu was happy and pretended not to hear clearly.
"Forget it if you didn't hear clearly."
Little Baihua blushed and ran back to her exam seat.
