Chapter 12 High School Entrance Examination Results Released

June 6th, 28 o'clock in the morning.

Li Guohong and Lin Xiuhong had already woken up, but were still lying in bed, without getting up to wash.

"We've been to Wei Dongrong's place, and we've also looked at my uncle's apartment." Lin Xiuhong turned her head and looked at her husband. "What do you think now?"

"I can't say anything about Wei Dongrong." Li Guohong frowned, "We have all visited his land."

"The place is actually quite remote, in the northern part of Yinjiang District, and is close to the national highway."

“It’s just a little bit uncertain right now.”

Lin Xiuhong also nodded: "I heard from Wei Dongrong that Yinjiang District will focus on developing that area in the future. Once the houses are built, they will definitely be easy to sell."

"I was thinking, if that's the case, then wouldn't the house near the No. 1 Middle School have greater potential?"

"After all, Qianjiang University is over there."

Li Guohong pondered for a moment and continued, "But for Wei Dongrong, it's mainly an investment. The house itself has little to do with us. We just make a living from the interest."

"If I buy my uncle's house, whether I make a profit or a loss will be completely tied to the house price."

"We haven't found out anything about the subway these days, and we don't know if what Li Luo said is reliable."

When talking about Li Luo, Lin Xiuhong's expression relaxed a little. Thinking of the changes in her son these days, she felt warm in her heart.

But then she frowned again and said worriedly, "Today is the 28th. I remember the results will be released in the morning, right?"

"Yes." Li Guohong also remembered after being reminded by her, and then laughed, "If this kid can really get into the No. 1 Affiliated Middle School, should we just buy the house from my uncle?"

"You really believe him." Lin Xiuhong rolled her eyes at him. "Although this kid has become much more sensible recently, he only asked Xixi to help him review the day before the high school entrance exam. It's good enough that he can get into one of those ordinary high schools with low scores."

"That's just what I said." Li Guohong shook his head. "You should always have some thoughts, just in case."

"Exams are not like buying lottery tickets." Lin Xiuhong sighed, "If he had grown up earlier in his three years of junior high school and studied more with Xixi, I would have believed that our son's brain would definitely allow him to be admitted to the First Affiliated Middle School."

"But who made him so disobedient before?"

"I just hope that he can turn over a new leaf after entering high school, study hard, and ask Xixi for advice more often."

"Xixi is such a good child." Li Guohong couldn't help but sigh, "Mr. Ying really gave birth to a good daughter."

"Yes." Lin Xiuhong agreed, "Recently, Xixi went to the Affiliated No. 1 Middle School to attend the summer advanced class, but your son went to her house every day to play computer games. That's how the difference between people comes from."

"It's summer vacation, so you might as well relax more. Look, doesn't Li Luo accompany us to the store to help out early every morning?" Li Guohong laughed twice, then patted his wife's shoulder and got up from the bed, "Okay, get up."

Li Luo, who was in the next bedroom, also got up on time, washed up, and went to the breakfast shop with his parents.

Li Luo himself was fine, but Lin Xiuhong was a little absent-minded the whole morning.

From time to time, I would pick up my phone to check the time, and make sure it was not yet ten o'clock before putting it down and continuing to work.

By nine o'clock, the number of customers in the store gradually decreased. Li Luo took his mother's mobile phone and logged into his QQ.

At this time, their class group of Grade 9-5 was very lively.

[Shao Heqi]: Everyone, don’t forget the graduation ceremony at 3 pm. Remember to report to the school classroom in advance. Then in the evening we will have a dinner at Jiangnan Restaurant. Teacher Zhang and others will also come with us.

[Shao Heqi]: The results of the high school entrance examination can be checked at 10 o'clock, maybe a few minutes earlier. If you are in a hurry, you can start calling at 9:50.

【Zhao Rongjun】：Received.

[Xu Yinghuan]: What did you receive? Brother, you have already taken the advanced class at the Affiliated No. 1 Middle School!
[Jin Yuting]: I’m so envious. I don’t even know if I can pass the exam.

Li Luo flipped through it casually and had no desire to speak in the group. He just confirmed the time of the school graduation ceremony in the afternoon.

The other students didn't say much either.

Apart from the few students with the best academic performance mentioned above, there are only some students who don’t care about their grades and make jokes in the group.

The others were still nervously waiting for the trial at ten o'clock and had no mood to chat.

Just as it was approaching ten o'clock, Ying Chanxi, who didn't have to go to class on the weekend, strolled out of his house and found Li Luo in the store.

"You came so early today?" Li Luo glanced at Ying Chanxi, "It's not time for dinner yet, do you want to eat fried noodles?"

Ying Chanxi glanced at him and muttered, "You ask even though you know the answer."

"Xixi is worried about your grades." Lin Xiuhong patted the back of Li Luo's head. "Is it ten o'clock yet? Can I call now?"

"There are only a few minutes left, why rush?" Li Luo was not nervous at all. After all, he knew the content of the test paper in advance.

Although there were no reference answers, I actually had a rough estimate of my score by the time the test was over.

For the Chinese test, Li Luo estimated that he would get a score of just over 100 because he was unsure about several reading comprehension questions and the composition score. He was also unsure whether he could get full marks on some other questions.

As for the math test, even with Ying Chanxi's help, Li Luo was still at a loss for the last multiple-choice question and fill-in-the-blank question.

As for the last question of the big test, I got the first two questions right, but the last question was a bit beyond the syllabus.

Even though Li Luo had watched Ying Chanxi solve a similar problem before, he was unable to solve the problem by following the same thinking and sequence.

When faced with this kind of math problem, if you can't do it, you really can't do it.

I could only reluctantly write down some steps to solve the problem, to see if I could get some points for the steps.

But even so, Li Luo estimated that his math score should be around 110 points.

As for English, the written test is actually quite simple. After all, as long as you know every word and can always check the fixed collocations you have memorized in advance, it is actually not difficult.

Even for the listening part, Li Luo was still able to prepare in advance because of the records in the memory palace and after spending a lot of brain power to restore it.

Therefore, as long as the English composition does not lose too many points, you may be able to get more than 115 points.

There is no need to talk about political history. Even if you lose points due to carelessness in some places, the total score must be above 45.

On the contrary, as science includes many knowledge points of physics and chemistry, plus I had to review two subjects, science and English, that evening, I did not have enough time.

Therefore, I didn't have time to consult Ying Chanxi on some difficult problems.

This may result in a score that is not too high, but with a full score of 180, Li Luo estimates that it will be at least 140 points.

If you calculate it this way, the score line for No. 1 Affiliated Middle School is definitely more than enough, and it is likely to be several tens of points higher.

Li Luo originally wanted to hide his shortcomings, after all, this improvement in performance was too noticeable.

But when he thought of the proud expressions on his parents' faces after he got such a result, Li Luo couldn't control himself and still performed to the best of his ability in the examination room.

No matter whether he will be suspected or not, just get the scores first!
No matter what, no one would guess that he was reborn and had the ability of a memory palace. [Zhao Rongjun]: Are you not at home? I looked for you at your door, but you weren't there.

Just when Li Luo was lost in thought, he received a message on QQ on his mobile phone.

[Li Luo]: I'm in my shop, why are you looking for me?
[Zhao Rongjun]: Oh, then I’ll come over.

[Zhao Rongjun]: I have nothing to do on the weekend. Your high school entrance exam results are about to come out, so I came to take a look.

[Li Luo]: Are the big guys in independent enrollment coming here to suppress the poor students?
[Zhao Rongjun]: I am concerned about you.

The two were chatting casually on QQ.

In less than two minutes, Zhao Rongjun arrived at the store door and walked in.

"Hello Auntie."

"Xiaojun, come and sit down." Lin Xiuhong waved at Zhao Rongjun, "Would you like to have lunch with Xixi later?"

"Oh, thank you, Auntie."

"You're so polite."

Even though Li Luo often went out to play ball with Zhao Rongjun instead of studying, Lin Xiuhong never had the nerve to blame Zhao Rongjun.

After all, Zhao Rongjun's academic performance has always been among the top 30 in the school. No matter how you look at it, it should be Li Luo who led a good student astray.

Lin Xiuhong was also puzzled. Her son was good at making friends. He had Ying Chanxi, the squad leader from his neighbor's house, and a good buddy like Zhao Rongjun. But why was he so disappointing?

If I could absorb a little bit of my good friends' talents, I wouldn't even have a hard time getting into a regular high school.

"Ah..." Li Luo sighed as he looked at Ying Chanxi and Zhao Rongjun sitting in front of him, "If you two sit here, I'll be embarrassed to show off later."

After all, with the level of these two people, if they really take the high school entrance examination, the minimum total score will be above 580 points.

Ying Chanxi's score is above 600 points.

Even if Li Luo had cheated, he couldn't possibly beat this group of test takers.

When he thought of this, Li Luo felt a little disappointed and quickly opened the class group on QQ again.

There were still two minutes left until ten o'clock, but some students had already successfully dialed the number to check their scores.

[It’s over! The total score is only 450, and I don’t know if I can get into No. Middle School]

[This is over... I can’t get the score line for general high school, my mom will beat me to death]

[I actually scored 505! Is there any hope for me to go to the Affiliated No. Middle School? ]

[No.505 Middle School is terrible. In the past few years, the score line has never been lower than ]

[How much did the deputy class member score? Where is the study committee member? Let the poor students open their eyes]

[Shao Heqi]: We are checking, please wait.

[Xu Yinghuan]: 520 points ~ should be stable, right?
[Shao Heqi]: My score is out, 554 points, 87th in the district, it’s okay, I performed normally.

The tone is understated, but between the lines it reveals the meaning of "Am I awesome? Praise me now."

His classmates also sent words and emoticons of praise and envy at the right time, praising Shao Heqi so much that he felt very proud.

"It seems that I can check the grades now." Zhao Rongjun also saw the grand occasion in the class group. Looking at the chat records that had reached 99+, he quickly reminded Li Luo.

"Hurry up." When Lin Xiuhong heard that she could check the results, she slapped him and asked Li Luo to make a phone call, "Check it quickly! Are you trying to make me anxious to death?"

"Don't be in a hurry." Li Luo slowly entered the phone number for checking scores, and then took out his admission ticket from his trouser pocket.

After the call was connected, he gave his admission ticket number.

"Okay." After receiving a reply from the other end, Li Luo hung up the phone, "I'll text you later."

"How long will it take?" Lin Xiuhong became more and more nervous and felt her heart pounding.

"It should be here in a minute or two if it's fast." Li Luo said this. Feeling his mother's nervousness, his heartbeat quickened a little, even though he was not that nervous originally.

Ying Chanxi, who was originally sitting outside the counter, couldn't help but stand up, walked around the counter, and got close to Li Luo, wanting to see Li Luo's transcript first.

Li Luo simply put his phone on the table and waited quietly for the verdict.

At this time, Li Guohong from the kitchen brought out a bowl of fried noodles and handed it to the customer at the fastest speed in his life. Then he ran behind Li Luo like the wind, his eyes fixed on the screen of his mobile phone.

The whole family, including the two contestants who did not take the high school entrance examination, all looked at their phones.

Half a minute later, as the phone suddenly vibrated, a text message popped up from the top of the screen.

"Quick, quick, quick! Click and see!" Lin Xiuhong slapped Li Luo's arm excitedly, and then covered her eyes again, "You guys watch it first, you guys watch it first, Xixi, tell me after you look at it, is it good or not."

Ying Chanxi reached out and opened the text message.

It clearly stated Li Luo's grades.

Candidate: Li Luo.

Admission ticket number: xxxxxxxx
Chinese: 110 points

Mathematics: 112 points

English: 114 points

Science: 142 points

Political history: 47 points

Sports: 30 minutes

Total score: 555 points

District ranking: 86th

Seeing the series of numbers in front of him, Ying Chanxi widened his eyes, opened his mouth slightly, and forgot to speak for a moment.

"Xixi, how is it?" Lin Xiuhong, who had not dared to look at the report card yet, asked anxiously.

"Hmm..." Ying Chanxi swallowed subconsciously, and felt his throat tighten and his head slightly dizzy. A huge surprise bloomed in his mind, "Li Luo... did... very, very, very well..."
