Hope Coffee House Chapter 28

Time flew, and in the blink of an eye, the first year of high school ended.

The second year of high school was divided into arts and sciences. Both Gao Qi and Zhang Feng chose to take science. The cla.s.s division was determined by drawing lots. This time the two were not a.s.signed to the same cla.s.s.

Zhang Feng was an extremely rare student in his first year of high school. His scores in each subject in the liberal arts and science courses were average, but he could get to the second year of high school. This advantage turned into a disadvantage.

Many students who had previously been hindered by their political and historical achievements had now easily pa.s.sed Zhang Feng.

In the new cla.s.s, Zhang Feng ranked only 15th.

Gao Qi had better scores in science courses, so she still ranked first in her cla.s.s.

Zhang Feng felt a little pressure. He was afraid that he would not be able to enter Fu Da, as it had been decided before.

Gao Qi didn't care about it. She often smiled at Zhang Feng, “What university will you get to go to, then? I'll go with you to any university, even if you don't get an undergraduate it doesn't matter. I have money, even if we don't do anything, we can still live very well in this life."

Every time Gao Qi said this, Zhang Feng would scrunch up his nose helplessly and ask with a smile, “You can easily go to Fuda University with your grades, and it's your most desired university. Of course, I must work hard to accompany you into their campus. Not just anyone can go to that university. I will be with you. What's the life of having soft rice? “

(T/N: He meant what's the point in living with money he didn't earn himself.)

Gao Qi would glare at Zhang Feng in dissatisfaction,”But the two of us will be together for a lifetime. What is yours is mine and what's mine is yours. How come you will eat soft rice? Obviously it's our money! “

In order to go to Fuda with Gao Qi, Zhang Feng worked very hard.

He was not disappointed. Zhang Feng's grades improved a bit in the mid-term exam of the last semester, making him rank 12th in the cla.s.s.

Although it was a full ten places behind the second place, Zhang Feng was confident.

His biggest advantage was being “stable”, as long as his grades steadily improved, before the college entrance examination, he would definitely be able to return to the top three positions in the cla.s.s and successfully get to Fuda University.

What Zhang Feng did not know was that although he had a good mentality, his mother was very worried.

In her eyes, her child had been second place in high school for a long time. His performance can be said to have plummeted. She waited for the mid-term exam results with great expectation, hoping to welcome the good news of her son returning to the top three in the cla.s.s, but did not expect that he wouldn't even enter the top ten in the cla.s.s. Instead, he ranked twelfth.

Many neighbors in the community also rented a house to accompany their children. Among them were several children of the same grade as Zhang Feng.

When Zhang Feng was in his first year of high school, every time his mother met with these parents, Zhang Feng's mother would ask the other child's grades, and then proudly say, “My son's grades are okay, so he ranks second in the cla.s.s. “

Now, when these parents met again in the community, Zhang Feng's mother had been reluctant to actively question the other child's achievements.

Recently, there was a familiar parent of the child who took the initiative to ask Zhang Feng's mother about Zhang Feng's mid-term exam results, and then spoke with her in concern.

“Zhang Feng ranked twelfth in the cla.s.s this time? All of them are in the second year of high school. How did his grades decline?”

“My child's grades had not been good initially. This year he finally improved, and now he ranks fifth in the cla.s.s. “

You have to look after Zhang Feng carefully. If the grades of the second year of high school are not good, it will be difficult

to catch up in the third year!” Zhao Feng's mother felt embarra.s.sed and she grew sullen for a while.

‘Your child finally ranked fifth in the cla.s.s, so you came over to show off to me!'

That parent had still said something of value to Zhang Feng's mother.

‘If the grades of the second year of high school are not good, it will be difficult to catch up in the third year.'

Zhang Feng's mother was a little puzzled. Her son's grades had been so good. Why did he suddenly fall so low?

Although her son had always said that he was not partial to any subject, this became a disadvantage in his entry into the science cla.s.s. It would obviously result in a lot of decline.

But with her understanding of her son, she always felt that he had been hiding something from her.

Could it be that Zhang Feng had fallen in love?

Zhang Feng's mother's chest felt tight.

Her mind was chaotic all day.

In the evening, Zhang Feng's mother finally couldn't help but hurriedly put on her coat and come to the gates of Shencheng Experimental Middle School. She looked for a huge tree and stood behind it.

As soon as the school bell rang, the students hurried out of the teaching building carrying their school bags.

Among countless students wearing school uniforms, Zhang Feng's mother soon saw her son.

Carrying a schoolbag on one shoulder, Zhang Feng was walking out of the school gate with a girl, talking and laughing.

With only one glance, Zhang Feng's mother was 100% sure that Zhang Feng was in love.

Zhang Feng and the girl stopped at the school gate and continued to talk for a while. The girl soon hired a taxi. He handed the schoolbag to the girl and waved goodbye.

At this time there were no more students at the school gate. Zhang Feng's mother walked out from behind the tree and came in front of Zhang Feng.

Seeing his mother, Zhang Feng instantly understood that she had come to him today.

He had just sent off Gao Qi, but he was probably seen by his mother.

She should also know that he was in love with Gao Qi.

Now that she knew it, there was no need to hide it.

“Mom, the girl that went away just now is my girlfriend. Her name is Gao Qi.” Zhang Feng said with a smile.

“Let's go home and talk.” Mother said without glancing at him.

Seeing his mother in a bad mood, Zhang Feng silently followed her home.

As soon as they entered the house, his mother didn't bother to remove her slippers and asked straight away: “When did it start?”

“The two of us came together when we were freshmen.” Zhang Feng answered truthfully.

“You didn't study hard because you fell in love?” She raised her voice.

“I've been studying hard all the time, it's because of our relations.h.i.+p that the two of us have a common goal. That's why I studied harder than before.”

“You dare to lie? If it wasn't for these love distractions, how could your grades decline so much? “

“Mom, I have said it many times. The reason for the decline in grades is because I am not good at science, so I had a bit of a loss after taking science. You can rest a.s.sured, mom, I have recently figured out a suitable way to study. Well, I will be able to return to the top three next semester. ”

“Do you think I would dare to believe you? Hurry up and break up with that Gao Qi. Don't contact her in the future. Dare to fall in love and want to go to a prestigious school? She, Gao Qi, is not good at studying, and wants to drag down my son? “

” Oh, Mom! Gao Qi is much better at learning than me. She is first in their cla.s.s! She has helped me numerous times. To talk about dragging, I'm clearly the one dragging her down.”

“Zhang Feng! Entrance exam is the only way to change your fate! For what reason did I quit my job? It was so that you can be admitted to an elite school, and one day get a good Offer! Do you think I resigned to see you enjoy your puppy love? “Zhang Feng's mother spat out in anger.

“Mom! I have already grown up. I listen to what you say, so can you trust me now? I like Gao Qi. The two of us have been making progress together. I know my grades and I believe that I can definitely attend a famous school!”

…

That night, neither Zhang Feng nor his mother succeeded in persuading each other.

Zhang Feng was not very worried about this conversation with his mother. He would not break up with Gao Qi. As for his mother, he will study harder and strive for a leap in the next exam. He won't say anything more.

In order to allow his mother to recognize his relations.h.i.+p with Gao Qi, Zhang Feng decided to study harder.

Early the next morning, Zhang Feng had breakfast and went to school to study on his own.

What Zhang Feng did not expect was that soon after he went out, his mother also left. She went directly to the school gate and waited for Gao Qi.

{T/N: phew…they got their love hurdles already, eh? Will they pa.s.s it…? Or…

It'll be known soon anyways~

*hands out popcorn* get ready for the drama!}
