Chapter 696: Zheng Yi’s Physical Examination

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Gu Pei returned to Class One of Year Two for the monthly exam and discovered that Xu Niannian’s grades had plummeted, resulting in her being demoted to Class Three.

Ever since the revelation that the Whale Fall autograph in Xu Niannian’s possession was a counterfeit, she hadn’t bothered Gu Pei for quite some time.

Subsequently, Gu Pei learned from his childhood friend, Feng Duxing, that Xu Niannian was now romantically involved with Sun Daoming, a troublemaker within their social circle.

Expressing his indignation on Gu Pei’s behalf, Feng Duxing remarked, “It’s ironic how you initially introduced Xu Niannian into our circle and introduced her to Sun Daoming.”

“I never expected her to betray you.”

Gu Pei, engrossed in watching a game video, shrugged off the comment. “Betrayal? I ended things with her long ago. I’ve moved on. My passion lies solely in eSports now. Xu Niannian can do as she pleases.”

While he had once harbored feelings for Xu Niannian, they were never strong enough to bind him.

Relieved by Gu Pei’s nonchalant response, Feng Duxing sighed, “I was worried you’d have a hard time letting go. And as for Sun Daoming, I can’t fathom his motives. He knows Xu Niannian is your ex, yet he pursues her anyway.”

Gu Pei’s expression twisted into a sneer. “They’re birds of a feather.”

When he had introduced Xu Niannian to his circle of friends, he had clearly delineated between his close buddies and those he merely hung out with for drinks and fun.

Sun Daoming fell into the latter category. He was notorious as a playboy within the industry, constantly cycling through girlfriends.

Despite Xu Niannian being well aware of Sun Daoming’s reputation, she still gravitated towards him. But Gu Pei couldn’t care less about her choices.

Feng Duxing cleared his throat awkwardly. “Actually, she approached me before, but I turned her down.”

Regardless of any personal interest, the fact that Xu Niannian was Gu Pei’s ex from childhood made Feng Duxing’s rejection inevitable.

Feng Duxing speculated cryptically, “I think she might be deliberately targeting the people around you to provoke a reaction. Her endgame might still be you.”

Disgust marred Gu Pei’s features as he impatiently dismissed the topic. “Let her do as she pleases. I don’t want to hear about her.”

With Xu Niannian no longer a thorn in his side, Gu Pei relished the newfound freedom. He dedicated himself to learning and honing his gameplay, occasionally challenging Gu Jin.

Predictably, each bout ended in resounding defeat.

However, as a top student, Gu Pei excelled in analyzing his failures. He meticulously reviewed his in-game deaths, gradually refining his skills over time.

Even Gu Jin found herself slightly taken aback.

Due to Gu Pei’s unwavering dedication and passion for eSports, she would occasionally offer him pointers when she was in a good mood.

Meanwhile, Zheng Yi, a sports student, had recently completed the physical examination in April, with the results of the May examination now released.

Scoring an impressive 97 out of 100 points, Zheng Yi clinched the top spot in Jin City, showcasing his exceptional athleticism.

Ecstatic over the news, Zhu Di promptly arranged for a private room at the Qing Ya Residence, inviting his comrades from the “No.1 Middle School Group” to celebrate.

Seated around the table, Zhu Di remarked, “With the college entrance examination looming, we mustn’t let nerves consume us. It’s crucial to strike a balance between diligence and relaxation.”

Lu Mao couldn’t help but quip, “Di, it seems like we’re the only ones feeling nervous, doesn’t it?”

Zhu Di’s expression faltered momentarily before he conceded with a nod.

Unsurprisingly, Gu Yang, Gu Jin, and Feng Jue maintained their positions as the top three students in the cohort.

Mo Mo consistently delivered solid academic performances, maintaining her position within the top ten of the cohort as the exams progressed.

While Zhang Shan and Li Shi’s academic achievements weren’t outstanding, they didn’t harbor aspirations for top-tier universities like Capital University or Hua University. Their aim was to secure admission to 985 universities, which would suffice for their needs.

As for Zheng Yi, his prowess in physical education was undeniable, consistently securing the highest scores in the city. Additionally, his performance in cultural mock exams consistently placed him in the upper echelons. It was a given that he would participate in the college entrance examination.
