The first class in the afternoon was Chinese class, and Zhu Hanwen walked in with a lesson plan.

"Before class, I want to announce something. First of all, I would like to congratulate our school for its good results in the English competition. The efforts of the students have won the first place for No. 1 Middle School. And for this honor, Lu Yiming deserves the most credit. If not,

The method he came up with, the first place is still very suspenseful."

In view of the fact that most students were unable to participate in this English competition, Zhu Hanwen once again explained the process and rules in detail so that the students could have a clearer direction for their efforts.

Because Zhu Hanwen knew that there would be more and more such competitions in the future, which would have an impact on the overall ranking of the school and even his personal performance.

After all, education funds are often allocated according to the ranking of schools, so competition will only become more intense in the future.

"The first is the preliminary test, which is a written test. What is tested here is everyone's basic knowledge and mastery of grammar. If you want to improve your scores, you have to work hard, study hard, and memorize. There is no shortcut."

"As for this second level, everyone's speaking ability is tested. Wu Kejun did well in the written test, but he failed in this level and was unable to represent the school in the subsequent competitions. It is a pity. I hope this

We can strengthen it more in the future.”

In the audience, Wu Kejun looked very unhappy.

After all, she was also the squad leader of the second class, and she felt that she should play a leading role as an example. But now she failed at the second level, which made her feel very humiliated.

Seemingly sensing the change in Wu Kejun's mood, Zhu Hanwen comforted him: "Of course, there is no need for Wu Kejun to feel depressed because of this reason. After all, the contestants are all the top English students in the city. Being able to enter the second level is a great achievement."

It means you are very strong."

"Then next, I will announce the list of our class's participation in exchange activities in Xiangjiang. The students in our class participating in this exchange activity are Lu Yiming, Wu Qiuya, Lu Jiajia, and Li Zhengkai."

"Among them, Lu Yiming's performance is particularly outstanding. I think our class can win the championship, and Lu Yiming deserves the most credit."

The audience burst into applause again, and everyone looked with envy at these students who were able to go to Xiangjiang to participate in exchange activities.

Li Quanwang seemed even happier than Lu Yiming himself: "Mingzi, my boss praised you."

In high school, for many students who usually have poor grades, being praised by their class teacher is already something worth bragging about.

Lu Yiming curled his lips and his eyes were full of disgust: "Verbal praise is of no use. Children in kindergarten will be given a big red flower after receiving praise."

When Shi Qingxue next to her heard this, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, rolled her eyes at Lu Yiming, and whispered: "You, you just got the advantage and still acted like a good boy."

Not far away, Wu Kejun was very depressed because she was eliminated in the second round. She looked at Wu Qiuya with envy: "It would be great for you. You can go to Xiangjiang for a seven-day tour. If only I could pass it at that time."

In the semi-finals, it will be fine if we are placed in your group."

Compared to Wu Kejun's self-pity, Wu Qiuya was immersed in great joy at this time.

She was not very excited about going to Xiangjiang for exchanges. What really made her happy was that she finally had the opportunity to get along with Lu Yiming day and night. This time she had to win over Lu Yiming no matter what!

She said to Wu Kejun perfunctorily: "It's okay, it's okay, aren't we just going to Xiangjiang? I just get a pass during the summer vacation, and I'll be there in a short ride. It's no big deal."

After class, several people who had participated in the competition gathered together.

Wu Kejun felt unworthy for Li Zhengkai: "Just now my boss actually said that Lu Yiming made the greatest contribution. Obviously during the finals, the best performer in the debate group was Li Zhengkai. If he hadn't been so busy, I don't know who would have won the championship. Where?

Like some people, they just try to get through the whole process and win by lying down."

When Lu Yiming heard this, he immediately felt unhappy and said, "Hey, hey, hey, you can eat randomly but you can't talk nonsense. You can't take it out on me if you don't pass the test, right?"

Lu Jiajia, one of the contestants, also defended Lu Yiming at this time: "You can't say that, although Lu Yiming didn't have any outstanding performance during the finals, he didn't hold us back. What's more, if he hadn't helped us attack before the game

The training has improved everyone's English conversation skills. It is very difficult for us to win the championship. After all, Teacher Zhu just said that the teams that can participate are all very powerful."

Wu Kejun was already very unhappy with Lu Yiming. As soon as the semester started, everyone's topic was Lu Yiming, and she, the monitor, was left out in the cold.

In addition, she did not reach the finals of the competition, which made her feel even more unhappy.

Now hearing that Lu Jiajia wanted to speak for Lu Yiming, she suddenly became angry: "You still speak for this guy."

Lu Jiajia shrank her neck and muttered timidly: "I'm just telling the truth, why are you so angry?"

Seeing that a quarrel was about to break out, Wu Qiuya hurriedly came over to dissuade her: "Kejun, please stop saying a few words. Classmate Li Zhengkai doesn't have any objections. Why are you arguing here? We are all classmates, so it's pointless to argue."

Li Zhengkai, who was about to open his mouth to argue, had to swallow the words he had carefully prepared for a long time after hearing what Wu Qiuya said.

Why the hell do I have no opinion?

Not only do I have it, but I am also very big!

But after all, he was in front of the goddess, and Wu Qiuya stood up to be the peacemaker. No matter how big his opinions were, he could only hold back all his words at this time.

She had to force out a smile and show her generosity: "It's okay. When it comes to classmates, don't fight over whose contribution is greater. They are all great."

When Wu Kejun heard what Li Zhengkai said, she immediately looked at Li Zhengkai with eyes full of praise and appreciation. She had always had a good impression of Li Zhengkai, a top student, but now that she saw how knowledgeable Li Zhengkai was, she immediately appreciated him even more.

"Classmate Li Zhengkai is still sensible. Classmate Lu Yiming, you look good and study hard. Don't ask for casual praise from the class teacher, and your tail will be raised to the sky."

Lu Yiming leaned back on his chair angrily, staring at the ceiling.

When the hell did I raise my tail?

Where did I get my tail?

If you want to be cocky, then...

"Okay, the squad leader is right, the squad leader is the best."

………………

After school in the evening, Lu Yiming took the certificate home. Ning Xuehua was immediately delighted and praised Lu Yiming full of praises. She took the certificate and looked left and right, and even posted it in the most conspicuous place in the living room.

Lu Yiming quickly stopped Ning Xuehua's behavior that made him feel ashamed: "That's almost enough. It makes me look like a primary school student. Besides, if you want to get a certificate, you have to get something with high gold content. There is no credibility like this."

Let’s forget about the competition.”

Ning Xuehua was shocked. Since graduating from elementary school, Lu Yiming had never won the title of "Three Outstanding Students", and he had never received any certificates. As a result, the walls at home could only be hung with murals or experiences.

Every time she visits a relative's house and sees the certificates on the wall, she becomes extremely envious.

My son finally won first place, but why does it sound like a fake?

Lu Yiming sighed: "It's not fake, but there are a lot of tricks in this kind of competition. Some people want to use the financial allocation for education. The organizer will also accept various sponsorships that cannot be disclosed. The price of the championship and runner-up is clearly marked.

In fact, it cannot be taken seriously.”

Lu Ding, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV, suddenly turned dark when he heard this, and asked in a stern tone: "Are you the champion you bought with money?"

Lu Yiming said disdainfully: "With my strength, is this necessary? But this time, although I didn't spend any money, I still used some connections. Otherwise, no matter how strong I am, I won't be able to get first place."

Then he talked about Ge Deqiu spending money to determine the champion. Two hundred thousand can buy the first place. It's not fair and just, it's just a joke.

Real fairness and justice was finally achieved by Lu Yiming using Lin Shuyi's connections, which is simply ironic.

After listening to this, Lu Ding felt relieved: "That's pretty much it."

Later, Lu Yiming also talked about the championship team going to Xiangjiang to study and exchange.

As soon as Ning Xuehua heard that her son had won the award based on his ability, he immediately posted the award in the most conspicuous place in the living room without any explanation. Then he sat in front of the TV cabinet and started calling to show off to his relatives and friends one by one.

"Auntie, our Lu Yiming won the award..."

"Third uncle..."

"Sixth aunt..."

Listening to his mother "showing off her baby" in such a fancy way, Lu Yiming next to him was so embarrassed that he could dig out three bedrooms and one living room with his toes.

Ning Xuehua made more than twenty phone calls and chatted for a full hour. It wasn't until the living room was dark that she remembered that she hadn't made dinner yet.

Lu Yiming walked to his father Lu Ding and asked quietly: "What's wrong with my mother? It's not like I've never been to Xiangjiang, so why am I so happy?"

Lu Ding suddenly became serious: "You have the nerve to say that! Didn't you say you went to Xiangjiang last time to study computers? But you ended up trading stocks!"

Lu Yiming curled his lips: "Then didn't I make a profit?"

Seeing that his son didn't take his words seriously, Lu Ding immediately taught him a serious lesson: "Nine out of ten bets will you lose, haven't you thought about what you would do if you lose?"

Lu Yiming blinked: "I've thought about it. If we really lost everything, we would definitely run away with the bucket. As the saying goes, if you can keep the green hills, don't worry about running out of firewood."

"you……"

Lu Ding was so angry that his chest was tight, but it was difficult to get angry, so he turned his head and shouted to Ning Xuehua: "Stop cooking, let's go out to eat tonight."

………………

At 8:45 the next morning, a minibus full of fifteen people was parked in front of No. 1 Middle School.

Zhu Hanwen, who was sitting in the passenger seat, looked anxious and looked down at his watch from time to time.

After another ten minutes, Lu Yiming arrived late with panda eyes.

Seeing Lu Yiming, Zhu Hanwen scolded in a deep voice: "You kid, what have you been doing? You were almost late, you know? Get in the car quickly."

Lu Yiming yawned boredly, then glanced at his watch: "There are still five minutes left."

After that, Lu Yiming got into the car as if he didn't recognize his relatives. He took a casual look inside the car and found that in addition to the girls in the class, Lin Yuzhen was also there.

Lin Yuzhen was also a member of the championship team and the only student in the group who was not in Class 2. Her performance in this debate was also remarkable and she made a lot of contributions to the victory.

Zhu Hanwen saw Lu Yiming getting on the bus and still looking around, so he urged: "Lu Yiming, sit down quickly, I'm going to start counting people."

Lu Yiming couldn't help complaining: "There are only a few people in the party, do we need to count the number of people?"

Zhu Hanwen suddenly became upset and stared at Lu Yiming with "revealing eyes": "What? Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Lu Yiming was immediately frightened and said: "Don't dare, don't dare."
