Chapter 220 -193: Teaching You a Trick
Xue Chuchu, upon hearing Jin Yuanhang’s words, said,
“They’re my good friends.”
She didn’t go into detail; to Jin Yuanhang, who was merely a classmate, if a bit self-centered, she felt that he harbored some special fantasies about her.
Indeed, Xue Chuchu knew she was attractive, and whenever a boy approached her she could see what kind of thoughts they had in mind.
Xue Chuchu had a mediocre impression of Jin Yuanhang; if Mu Ying hadn’t asked her to come out in advance, she wouldn’t have come at all.
Compared to hanging out with classmates, she preferred playing with Tongtong.
Tongtong was not only fun to be around, but her cooking skills were also superb.
After mooching a few meals, Xue Chuchu knew that freeloading wasn’t commendable, but she really looked forward to Tongtong reaching out to her, as it always meant there was something delicious in store.
Jin Yuanhang laughed upon hearing this and asked, “Your friends look about the same age as us—are they students? How come I’ve never seen them at the Second Middle School?”
“He’s in the same grade as us and goes to the Fourth Middle School,” Xue Chuchu answered.
As soon as she said this, the atmosphere turned slightly odd. Jin Yuanhang, Tao Zhi, and Mu Ying were students from Yuzhou Second Middle School.
It wasn’t apparent in middle school, but by high school, the hierarchy among schools became clear. Second Middle School was undoubtedly far superior to other high schools in the urban area, towering above the rest.
Last year’s admission rate to key universities for Second Middle School reached 70%, and the rate for first-tier universities was even above 95%.
Second Middle School was the dream high school for countless parents.
In Yuzhou Second Middle School, the classes were divided into four tiers:
The Qingbei Class, the Experimental Class, the Fast Class, and the Ordinary Class.
And Jin Yuanhang and his peers belonged to one of the two Qingbei classes; it was no exaggeration to say that even the worst student in a Qingbei class could easily get admitted to a 211 university.
Students from the Second Middle School’s Qingbei Class were considered treasures of Yuzhou’s educational community.
For students, grades were what mattered most, and in high school, it was almost entirely about academic performance.
Originally, Jin Yuanhang saw Jiang Ning’s good looks and thought he was a formidable rival. But now, it seemed, haha.
From the Fourth Middle School?
What was that supposed to be?
As a student from the Qingbei Class of Second Middle School, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of superiority, and so his smile carried a trace of condescension.
“The Fourth Middle School, huh? Pretty good—promising future,” Jin Yuanhang complimented.

Another student chimed in, “The Fourth Middle School is okay, I guess—their Experimental Class is probably a bit better than our Fast Class.”
Jin Yuanhang was noncommittal. “Well, it is an Experimental Class, after all.”
Tao Zhi, wearing black-rimmed glasses, was a more introverted boy; he didn’t possess that sense of superiority.
He had great aspirations; although he enjoyed the educational resources of the Qingbei Class, he believed the standard of education in Yuzhou City, in the whole of Hui Province, was still mediocre.
It was often ridiculed by neighboring cities.
He, Tao Zhi, would surely change this situation in the future.
After some conversation,
Xue Yuantong said naively, “You guys are from the Qingbei Class, wow, that’s impressive. I wanted to get into the Qingbei Class in middle school too.”
Hearing this, Jin Yuanhang curled his lips into a smile, feeling increasingly proud as he saw the young girl’s admiration.
He joked, “Then you’d better work hard on your middle school exams. The bar for Second Middle School isn’t low.”
Jin Yuanhang didn’t mention the Qingbei Class, he only brought up Second Middle School.
In his view, getting into Second Middle School was already something to boast about.
“Middle school exams? I’ve already finished them; I’m a high school student now,” Xue Yuantong explained.
Underestimated again, how annoying!
“Huh, you’re a high school student?” Jin Yuanhang was astonished. Earlier, when Xue Chuchu mentioned they were in the same grade, he only thought of the boys and completely overlooked the young girl.
Who would have expected she was a high school student?
He sized up Xue Yuantong; she was shorter than even the shortest girl in their class.
It wasn’t just her height; the main reason was that the young girl’s face looked small, and her demeanor made her seem more like a little elementary school student.
Xue Yuantong felt offended, “No need to doubt, I’m a high school student.”
“Uh, okay,” Jin Yuanhang chuckled awkwardly, and then added,
“It seems you won’t have the chance to attend Second Middle School. To be honest, it’s only at Second Middle School that your potential can be fully unleashed.”
Jin Yuanhang expounded, “Of course, it’s not completely out of the question. If you have a lot of potential, you could transfer to our Second Middle School.”
Tao Zhi thought Jin Yuanhang was looking at the sky from the bottom of a well. Their Qingbei Class was competing against top students from all over the country; they shouldn’t limit their perspective to just Second Middle School.
However, Tao Zhi didn’t speak up; he was introverted.
Xue Chuchu wasn’t a fool; she picked up on something from Jin Yuanhang’s words.
Perhaps other students accepted what Jin Yuanhang said by default.
But Xue Chuchu wouldn’t. Yuantong was her good friend, and besides, her grades…
Xue Chuchu said, “Tongtong probably doesn’t need to transfer; she’s doing quite well now.”
“I forgot to introduce them to you. Her name is Xue Yuantong, and he’s Jiang Ning,” Xue Chuchu introduced them in turn.
Tao Zhi suddenly froze, puzzling over the name Xue Yuantong—why did it sound so familiar?
The Xue Yuantong from the Fourth Middle School?
The citywide end-of-term exam, Xue Yuantong from the Fourth Middle School???
Tao Zhi suddenly remembered the fear dominated by that name from last year’s end-of-term citywide exam.
His face changed, and he stared at the young girl, blurting out:
“You’re called Xue Yuantong!?”
Jin Yuanhang was puzzled, wondering why Tao Zhi had such a big reaction—it was just the name Xue Yuantong, right?
Uh, Xue Yuantong…
Jin Yuanhang was stunned.
Tao Zhi didn’t wait for her to answer, pressing on: “You were first in the city last time?”
Xue Yuantong tugged at Jiang Ning’s sleeve and said indifferently, “Yes, that was me. What about it?”
“How could you score so high!”
