After experimenting with exchanging fruits twice, the third time Zhen Yu directly exchanged for apples worth 10 ability points and bananas worth 4 ability points, enough for eating for more than a month and a half.

Through nearly a month of effort, not only did she regain the ability points used for exchanges, but she also gained an extra item—Mall Available Ability Points!

Such a name! It is obviously for exclusive use by the System Mall!

Besides, all four data items in Appearance have grown, and even the data in Emotion have finally moved!

Zhen Yu was delighted! She immediately said, "Increase Constitution to 80!"

Swipe! A flash of white light, the data updated.

Sss... Looking at the series of 80s, Zhen Yu felt her heart bleed at the thought of spending 10 ability points for every single point increase in the future!

And upgrading Skill would need enough stored knowledge to proceed. Now it seems... Eh? It seems that she had never upgraded her Emotional data!

Zhen Yu finally realized that she had always overlooked the category of Emotion.

She never thought about adding to this category before and didn’t feel anything. Now that she suddenly wanted to add, a bad premonition immediately surged in her heart.

She tentatively said in her mind: "Increase Financial Intelligence by 10 points!"

The next second! Zhen Yu’s premonition came true.

[Ding! Notice! Emotional Quotient does not belong to adjustable data, it can only be improved through personal comprehension!]

"..." Alright! System dad, you win.

——

After another week, the calligraphy competition reached its final.

Zhen Yu never expected that the local TV station would actually record the event!

Lu Huai won second place in the middle school calligraphy group.

This was already his third time participating in the calligraphy competition, and his last time during middle school. Not having won the first place, he was somewhat unhappy.

On the contrary, Zhen Yu and Zhen Yan both won first place in the middle school and high school hard pen calligraphy categories!

This result made Mrs. Zhen extremely happy, and she couldn’t wait to tell everyone she met!

Old Gu from next door, for some reason, even insisted on celebrating for Zhen Yu and Zhen Yan! He offered to treat them!

The relationship between the two families was now very good, and Mrs. Zhen could not refuse, so she had to agree.

Only the two families dined together.

At first, Zhen Yu did not notice. As the conversation deepened, she began to notice some clues.

Even though Old Gu was smiling so hard his eyes were nearly squeezed shut, Zhen Yu could still feel that half of the time, his gaze was on Mrs. Zhen, and the topic always revolved around her.

"Could it be as she guessed?" Zhen Yu thought to herself, yet she didn’t show any signs of it. It seemed as if this was just an ordinary dinner among friends.

——

In the days that followed, all the classmates were tortured by various competitions. Only Zhen Yu held back and did not sign up for any other competitions.

Because she had already secured the ten points from the calligraphy competition.

Moreover, Zhen Yu felt that it was better to stick to what she knew! As long as she put more effort into her spoken English, securing twenty points should almost be a sure thing!

Even though the kids nowadays were nurtured by various extracurricular classes and were not to be underestimated, Zhen Yu still had great confidence in her English!

In late October, the buildings were centrally heated, and the classrooms of the Affiliated School were warm as spring.

As the first round of the English competition concluded, the midterm exams, also known as the second mock test as referred to by Teacher Liu, arrived as scheduled.

The formula was the same, and it was the usual unavoidable late self-study sessions and Sundays.

On Sunday evening, when Zhen Yu walked out of the classroom after finishing the last subject, she realized that it had already gotten dark.

Fortunately, there was no late self-study on Sundays, so Zhen Yu slowly walked out of the teaching building, enjoying the rare leisure time.

Just as she reached the playground, Lu Huai caught up to her.

"Zhen Yu! Let’s go play King of Fighters!"

Zhen Yu had kept her promise last time to play games with him the whole afternoon, including but not limited to King of Fighters.

But this guy was not only not satisfied, but had become even more addicted...

"No." Zhen Yu did not hesitate at all; she planned to call Han Mingyue tonight! She had no time to coddle children!

Lu Huai refused to give up, "Come on! Just one more time! Just once, okay?"

Zhen Yu ignored him and continued walking towards the school gate. She thought they would part ways once they left the school, but Lu Huai surprisingly followed her!

"Zhen Yu..."

"Zhen Yu..."

"Enough!" Zhen Yu suddenly stopped, interrupting Lu Huai’s persistence.

"Did you agree?!" Lu Huai was quite surprised, thinking Zhen Yu had agreed.

But Zhen Yu just shook her head and said, "I’ll talk about it after the exams!"

"That’s what you said!" Lu Huai grinned, "This time I’ll definitely be the first!"

"I’ll only believe the results!"

——

As if truly having a tacit understanding, Zhen Yu, who hadn’t spoken to Han Mingyue over the phone for half a month, had just finished dinner and gone upstairs when the phone rang.

"Hello?"

"Xiao Yu! It’s me!" Han Mingyue’s voice sounded very excited.

His mood immediately infected Zhen Yu, and she couldn’t help but smile and ask, "What’s making you so happy?"

"I entered the ’Ye Shengtao Cup’ Nationwide Middle School Students Essay Competition!"

"Ah?! Really? Have you already sent out your work?" Zhen Yu sincerely felt happy for Han Mingyue.

Although she only knew about the ’New Concept’ essay competition, a competition named after someone as famous as Ye Shengtao must also be nationwide!

"It’s sent!!" Han Mingyue nodded vigorously on the other end of the phone, "Xiao Yu! I am confident this piece could win a prize!"

"Really?" Zhen Yu seemed to only be able to repeat this sentence, saying it again.

"Really!" Perhaps because he had kept this to himself for quite a while, now that he mentioned it, he spoke with an eager desire to express.

"When I was writing it, it all felt so smooth, as if I was divinely inspired! After I finished writing, I didn’t change a single word and sent it right away!"

"Then I need to congratulate you in advance!" Zhen Yu understood that feeling completely, as she had always been writing novels.

Sometimes, when inspiration suddenly strikes, it really just feels like your hands can’t keep up, and you wish you could write thousands of words in one go!
