Chapter 1904: Extra: A Brand New Life 19 (Jiang Yue and Xue Yan)
Jiang Yue naturally took the opportunity to tell her friend Xue Yan, “If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask me, and if I know it, I’ll tell you.”
Xue Yan suppressed a laugh internally and nodded obediently, “Mhm.” She really looked like a diligent student whose only issue was poor grades.
“That’s great,” Zhou Ping was very happy.
Chen Sheng and Yao Xi were also happy for Xue Yan.
Knowing about the situation at Xue Yan’s home, and despite Xue Yan being a rich second-generation, Chen Sheng and the others still took care of her. They were also afraid that Xue Yan would dwell in the shadow of her mother’s issues. They thought that perhaps studying hard could help Xue Yan to forget her mother’s matters more quickly. Therefore, not only did they never mention Xue Yan’s mother in her presence, but they also hoped someone with good grades could lead her a bit. After all, there were so many students in class, and sometimes the teachers couldn’t attend to everyone individually.
Everyone was quite naive at the time, and Jiang Yue and Xue Yan could almost see right through Zhou Ping, Chen Sheng, and Yao Xi at a glance.
Such kind-hearted people naturally made them want to give these guys a hand even more.
As soon as the bell rang for class, Yao Xi and Zhou Ping returned to their seats, and the first lesson was Chinese language.
Although Xue Yan had only scored ninety, just passing, the Chinese language teacher still praised her, mentioning her full score in composition and even reading her essay aloud. Jiang Yue hadn’t had the chance to look at Xue Yan’s paper yet, and upon hearing it for the first time, she found that Xue Yan’s composition had similarities with hers, but also differences. The similarities were that both were incisive, but the difference was that Xue Yan’s was incisive yet more acceptable to people.
That made sense, as Xue Yan had always been better at interacting with others than she was, so it was natural that her writing style would be influenced by this trait.
The Chinese language teacher remembered that he had initially awarded Jiang Yue’s essay with full marks as well but deducted a point later because it was too sharp and might not be accepted by everyone. Besides this time, Jiang Yue’s previous performance had been very good. Combined with the teachers’ awareness of why Xue Yan had transferred from City No. 7 Middle School to Yun City No. 3 Middle School, they all sympathized with Xue Yan, and now, with the two of them sitting one in front of the other…
The Chinese language teacher couldn’t help but say, “It’s the third year of high school now. If you still don’t like to ask the teacher, you should ask those who have better grades than you do. Help each other out. This is the last year; in the future, you’ll each go your own way and who knows when you’ll see each other again.”
The Chinese language teacher was always sentimental, and as he spoke, he really became emotional, feeling quite sour as he sniffled.
Many students were stunned, almost as if the college entrance exam was the very next day. Then, everyone responded, “Got it, teacher.”
After the morning classes, Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, Chen Sheng, Yao Xi, Zhou Ping, and Xu Yi, a group of six with two girls and four boys, went to the cafeteria for lunch together.
They had to line up, as different windows offered different dishes.
The six of them didn’t all want to eat the same thing, so some stood in one line, and others in another. Xu Yi stood in line with Jiang Yue and Xue Yan, with Xu Yi in front of Jiang Yue and Xue Yan behind her.
Xu Yi got her food first, and since Chen Sheng and the others had already gotten theirs and found a place to sit, they signaled for Xu Yi to join them, which she did.
Therefore, Xu Yi didn’t see that both Jiang Yue and Xue Yan’s meals were charged to Xue Yan’s meal card.
But even if she had seen it, it wouldn’t have mattered. After all, the phone and computer Jiang Yue was using were said to be Xue Yan’s, and Xue Yan had also bought her Jianbing guozi and Double Skin Milk before, which everyone in their dorm knew about. Knowing that Xue Yan treated Jiang Yue well, no one thought badly of it.
