After Huo Beichen entered the school, he paused for a moment and looked out through the school fence. He saw Ning Meng and Huo Nan fighting.
Huo Beichen paused and sneaked back.
He did not come out because he wanted to see what the two of them were doing. He was afraid that Ning Meng would be at a disadvantage. After all, Huo Nan's classmates were all around, and Ning Meng only had Fei Bai to protect her from afar.
He did not expect to hear the girl's sonorous words the moment he came over.
Huo Beichen was stunned.
It was no secret that his results in school had always been bad. In the past, he was ranked 300th or 400th in his cohort. However, he had not been studying well for the past few months. Last time, he had a blank paper and was ranked last. Basically, no one would think that he was a good student.
Only she …
Huo Beichen clenched his fists.
Seeing that the girl had left after the bet, he put his hands into his pockets and slowly walked toward the classroom.
The mock exam this time was very formal. It was equivalent to the last exam before the New Year.
Everyone was ranked according to their student numbers. Huo Beichen was in the last exam hall, which was filled with the worst students.
Everyone was not very loyal to the exam, so they gathered together and chatted.
Huo Beichen slowly walked in. As soon as he entered, the rest of the students quieted down and returned to their seats.
Huo Beichen did not seem to notice this. He walked to the last seat and sat down.
The two consecutive days of exams made Ning Meng very nervous.
First, she had made a bet with Huo Nan. Second, she had been teaching Huo Beichen for so long. She wanted him to do well in the exams.
The next afternoon, she went to the school gate, planning to bring Ning Ke and Huo Beichen home.
She did not expect to see Huo Beichen when the students had finished their exams and gone home.
"Sis!" Ning Ke, who had just finished her English exam, walked over.
Ning Meng asked, "You didn't see Lord Chen?"
Ning Ke shook her head. "We were not in the same exam hall."
Just as Ning Meng nodded, she saw Huo Nan walking over. "Tsk tsk, you did not fight back. Are you regretting it? Why don't you call me 'Grandpa' a few times and I'll forgive you? "
"??"
Ning Meng rolled her eyes and replied sarcastically, "It's fine if you're fat, but why is your face so big?"
Huo Nan pointed a finger at her angrily, "You …!"
After saying this, Huo Nan thought of something and mocked, "You still don't know? In the last exam, Huo Beichen only took an hour before he handed in his paper and left. One hour! He doesn't know anything and is too lazy to wait, right?! "
Ning Meng was stunned when she heard this.
She had always known that Huo Beichen's attitude towards learning was problematic.
Actually, she was a little nervous about making the bet with Huo Nan. After all, she was afraid that Huo Beichen would sleep even during the exam.
But who would have thought that he would hand in his English test ahead of time?
She didn't tell him about the bet with Huo Nan because she didn't want to give him pressure. But now it seemed that this person was too unreliable!
Ning Meng's face fell.
Huo Nan continued, "That's not all. I heard from my friend, who was in the last exam hall, that he not only handed in his English paper early, but he was also too lazy to write his Chinese essay. He slept for half the exam and also slept for half an hour for Math! Anyway, the results of the mock exam will be out in no time. So, Ning Meng, I'm telling you, you better think about how you're going to beg your grandfather to forgive you! "
Ning Meng frowned and did not say anything.
She said to Ning Ke, "Ke Ke, you should go home first."
Ning Ke held onto her arm. "Sis, where are you going? Can I go with you? "
Ning Meng thought for a while and shook her head. "You should go home first."
Ning Ke was not someone who would pester others. Hearing this, she nodded and left.
Ning Meng walked toward the small park alone.
From afar, she saw Huo Beichen sitting on the wooden bench, staring at something in front of him.
He was tall, but at this moment, he looked lonely and pitiful.
Ning Meng couldn't bear to blame him for not taking the exam properly. She just wanted to go and accompany him, but she knew that his parents were a pain in his heart. Before he said anything, she couldn't just go there.
But how could she make him happy?
Ning Meng thought for a while and suddenly, she remembered something from the modern world. Her eyes lit up.
Huo Beichen was in a daze.
It had been four months, but whenever he thought of his parents, he would still feel a stabbing pain in his heart.
But he seemed to have gotten used to this pain and did not feel anything.
Just as he was thinking, a sound came from afar.
He turned his head and saw a clumsy man wearing a Santa Claus mask walking toward him.
"He" was covered in red and had a white beard. He looked very festive, but the person hiding inside must be very tired. Just as Huo Beichen was thinking about this, Santa Claus stood in front of him and handed him a lollipop.
Santa Claus lowered his voice and asked, "Young man, may I ask why you are so unhappy?"
Huo Beichen was puzzled.
Did he think that no one could hear him if he lowered his voice?!
He did not know why, but he suddenly felt like laughing.
The feeling of being the only one left in this world disappeared at this moment.
He took the lollipop and leaned back on the wooden chair. Then, he looked at her lazily. "Christmas is over, why are you still dressed up like this?"
Ning Meng was puzzled.
She wanted to get a brown bear or something, but she was not a domineering CEO who could rent whatever she wanted. She had searched for a long time and finally found this Santa Claus costume!
She pursed her lips and slowly replied, "We are short on funds. Our company's boss is too stingy. He did not give us any money to buy new costumes!"
Huo Beichen was speechless.
Who was this boss she was talking about?
He was touched when he saw her coming over, but after hearing this, he only felt funny!
Huo Beichen pursed his lips and stood up, ready to leave.
Santa Claus chased after him. "Hey, young man, I am just a stranger. If you have something on your mind, you can tell me!"
Huo Beichen glanced at her and suddenly sighed.
Ning Meng quickly asked, "Why are you sighing?"
Huo Beichen said, "I did not do well in the mock exam."
Ning Meng was speechless.
Her heart sank. It was over. Was she really going to be beaten up by that little fatty this time?!
If she had known that Huo Beichen was so unreliable, she would not have made the bet with that little fatty!
Hmm, during the bet, she had said that she would not fight back, but she had not said that she would not fight back, right?
So, if she kicked the fatty away, it would not be against the rules, right??
PS: Do you guys think that Lord Chen really did not do well in the exam? Haha ~
