Rebirth in the 90s: A Perfect Life

101-110

Chapter 101
The sequelae of the champion

The results were announced by Principal Zheng, who had a rosy face and looked energetic today, as if he was a few years younger. When he talked about Xiaoyue and Xiaoyang getting first and second in the district, and ninth and tenth in the city, there was an almost fanatical light in his eyes, so much so that when his gaze swept over her again and again, Xiaoyue couldn't help feeling guilty. This kind of gaze that placed high hopes on her, as if she would definitely achieve great things, made Xiaoyue feel more pressured.

Xiaoyue couldn't help but sideways look at Xiao Yang, this boy seemed calm and composed, even the smile on his face was so appropriate and natural, not at all inconsistent. It made sense that her results were cheating, but Xiao Yang's were real skills, not fake at all, unlike herself who was a fake, so of course she wouldn't feel guilty.

Feeling Xiaoyue's gaze, Xiaoyang looked at her: "What's wrong?"

Xiaoyue shook her head: "Nothing."

Xiao Yang suddenly smiled and said, "You look at me so lovingly, what if I misunderstand you?"

Xiaoyue rolled her eyes and didn't want to pay attention to him. Ever since she sat at the same table with this boy, Xiaoyue felt countless times that she was blind in her previous life. How could she have thought that he was aloof?

Yang Rui: "Can you two stop flirting with each other? Song Gang and I are still here. That's enough. Please consider our feelings a little bit."

Xiaoyue: "What do you mean by flirting? Do you know how to use words? My Chinese class was wasted."

Yang Rui chuckled, "It's true that my Chinese class was not in vain, but my level is definitely not as good as yours. Su Xiaoyue, you are really amazing. You can get full marks for composition. My uncle said that although you didn't perform well in math, you are the only one in the city who got full marks for composition. Otherwise, if you only lost one point, your ranking with Xiao Yang would be reversed. You know, Xiao Yang is only 0.5 points lower than you. With a difference of 0.5 points, he can only regretfully rank below you. It's too tragic."

Xiao Yang: "You really wasted your Chinese class. Is that how you use hatred? My Chinese is not as good as Xiaoyue's, especially writing."

Yang Rui waved his hand: "Okay, stop it. I was wrong. I shouldn't stand up for you. I'll shut up, okay?" As he said this, he made a zipper gesture on his mouth.

Xiao Yang was at a loss as to what to do with him. He glanced at Xiaoyue with a twinkling eye and saw that Xiaoyue was the same as always. She was neither angry nor shy like other girls. Every time at this time, Xiao Yang had no idea what she was thinking.

After the results are announced, it is time to apply for the exam. The application materials have been sent to parents. After comparing the admission scores of various schools last year, many students chose technical secondary schools.

At this time, the value of technical secondary schools is very high, and the admission score is not lower than that of high schools. Even the scores of some popular technical secondary schools are comparable to those of key high schools. The reason why they are so popular is determined by the specific era today.

It was the early 1990s, wages were not high and family burdens were heavy. If you went to high school, not only would you have to pay tuition, but you would also run the risk of failing the exam. If you failed to get into university, you would have wasted three years. Graduates from technical secondary schools would be treated as cadres and guaranteed employment. Not only that, they would also receive scholarships every month. Although it was not much, it was still an income. Moreover, if you were admitted to university, supporting a college student would be a considerable expense, which was a heavy burden for an average family.
