Chapter 673: Chapter 674 The Real Heiress Does Not Return to Her Place 6_1

Yang Xue knew that many people were watching her, wondering why she could still improve even though it was already the second term of her senior year in high school.

For this reason, she could only express in private that this was because she had a new goal, and of course, she had to work very hard.

The class teacher also hadn’t expected such a huge surprise at this time of the year.

As for this event, of course, the teachers all agreed and supported it; they also hoped everyone could achieve good results.

If possible, they hoped to produce a provincial college entrance exam champion, or at the very least, a champion from their city would be even better.

For this, the class teacher even pulled aside a few students with good grades for a heart-to-heart talk, with the message being to not feel any pressure and just perform to their ability.

Zhang Li really laughed her head off, thinking if they didn’t want to put pressure on them, why bother summoning them for frequent talks? It was clearly to stir them up.

She definitely wasn’t going to achieve a champion’s score; after all, she knew the scores of the provincial and city science champions.

In short, she had no intention of standing out. If it weren’t for the chance to get into Harbor City University and secure a scholarship, she wouldn’t bother to improve her grades.

The class teacher had no idea that even though he talked to Zhang Li repeatedly, she remained unmoved. Now, he had high expectations for her.

That girl really found joy in tackling difficult questions, as that was how one could pull ahead and achieve good scores.

Yang Xue had never imagined the class teacher would call her in for a talk, and she felt unexpectedly flattered.

Looking at Yang Xue, who seemed unsure of what to say or how to walk, "Are you okay?"

"You know, the teacher called me in to encourage me to study hard and enter the exam hall without any burden."

With the college entrance examination just a few days away, Yang Xue actually felt a bit panicked, "Xiao Li, do you think I can do well?"

Yang Xue looked steadfastly at Zhang Li, "If possible, I want to continue studying at the same university as you."

Although they were destined to choose different majors in university, it didn’t matter; being at the same school was enough.

She had also decided to rent an apartment with Zhang Li, but all this depended on her getting into Harbor City University.

Zhang Li understood Yang Xue’s anxiety, "Don’t worry, you’ve made a lot of progress. You will get in."

Actually, Zhang Li wasn’t certain either. She wasn’t even sure if she would get into Harbor City University, let alone know Yang Xue’s situation.

But now, all she could do was give Yang Xue some peace of mind; otherwise, the girl might totally break down.

"Right, we will definitely both get in," Yang Xue took a deep breath, "We have worked so hard."

While others were also making an effort, what Yang Xue wanted to say was that no one in the class had worked harder than they had.

She couldn’t count the number of questions they had gone through. If she worked this hard and still failed to get into Harbor City University, she... she would be very disappointed.

"Let’s go out and have fun for a day tomorrow," Zhang Li said, knowing the great pressure Yang Xue was under. After thinking it over, she felt it would be good to take her out to relax a bit.

Constant tension wasn’t good, and it was quite easy for something bad to happen.

It just so happened that from tomorrow, the school would be on a three-day break to let everyone adjust and relax, and also to make some preparations for the exam site.

Go out to play? This made Yang Xue incredibly happy; she had completely forgotten what it was like to have fun.

"Where are we going tomorrow?" Yang Xue knew it was best not to bring up such things herself, or she would get a scolding from her parents.

But as long as Zhang Li asked, they would generally agree, and Yang Xue really felt her parents were being too much.

"Shall we take a stroll in the park?" Zhang Li tentatively asked Yang Xue.

Take a stroll in the park? Yang Xue pondered for a moment, "Don’t you think it’s hot?"

"No worries, we’ll find a place to have tea and enjoy the scenery when we’re there," Zhang Li had obviously prepared for this, it wasn’t just a spontaneous idea.

Enjoying the scenery seemed agreeable, but why tea? Yang Xue remembered her last visit to her hometown where she saw a group of old men sitting together, sipping tea and chatting away the day.

They surely hadn’t reached that stage yet, had they? Yang Xue really didn’t like the idea, "How about we go shopping instead?"

No matter how busy she was, she used to go to a shopping mall every month— even if she couldn’t necessarily afford the clothes, she could satisfy her cravings and keep up with the latest trends.

Go shopping? Zhang Li really didn’t recommend going to a shopping mall, although getting to know her was like receiving a butterfly.

But the other party would occasionally still come here, because she seemed to remember that the old lady had some relatives or perhaps best friends here, whatever it was, she’d forgotten.

Anyway, it was better to avoid meeting if at all possible; having tea in the park was something the old lady would definitely not do.

Because the old lady felt that drinking a few yuan’s worth of tea in the park was absolutely beneath her dignity, ever since her daughter married a wealthy man, the old lady had considered herself of a higher class.

"Let’s go to the park, we’re going there to relax. Look at the clothes in the mall— they’re so expensive, can you afford them?"

"I can’t." Yang Xue shook her head.

"So why go? It’s not for relaxation, but rather for asking for trouble."

"We’re going to find relaxation, to make ourselves feel at ease," Zhang Li insisted that if they were going out, it could only be to the park.

What could Yang Xue do? Stay at home or go out— she knew the choice was obvious.

Yang Xue followed Zhang Li to a park, bewildered, "I didn’t expect there to be a park here."

"Right? Haven’t you been here?" She hadn’t been here either, but she knew of this place from her previous life.

Although the park wasn’t very big, the scenery was really nice. After walking around the park, Zhang Li directly ordered two cups of tea at the teahouse by the pond, along with some snacks and sunflower seeds.

"Are we really having tea?" Yang Xue thought that since they’d already strolled around the park, shouldn’t they change locations? But here they were, truly having tea.

"Yes, to experience relaxation," Zhang Li said, taking a few sips of tea before lying down on a lounge chair she had picked.

"Don’t you find this quite leisurely?"

"Surrounded by skyscrapers, many international companies have branches or offices inside."

"I know, a relative of mine works in one of them," Yang Xue recalled how her family would always mention that relative during gatherings.

"If you work hard, you might be able to get a job there too. Maybe you’ll even go to a better place to work."

If Yang Xue could also get into Harbor City University, Zhang Li knew she would definitely try to stay.

"I hope so. My relative went to a prestigious school," Yang Xue felt a bit intimidated, "He said that everyone working there has a high level of education."

"You make it sound like your grades are bad," Zhang Li giggled, "Xiao Xue, your grades aren’t bad either."

"Even if you can’t get into Harbor City University, you might be able to get into F University, or maybe an even better school."
