After sending the three children to the examination room, Principal Chen waited nervously.
The exam time was 2.5 hours, from 9 am to 11:30 am.
However, he didnt wait outside the examination room all the time, instead, he went to a friends tea shop for some tea.
Seeing his arrival, Principal Chens close friend, Zhou Cheng, teased, Youre a busy man, what brings you here today? This is a rare occasion!
Principal Chen laughed and replied, I brought a few students here for an exam today!
B0xo.comZhou Cheng curiously asked, Exam? What kind of exam would require the principal himself to lead the team? Arent other teachers responsible for those previous exams and competitions?
Of course, Principal Chen couldnt tell him the truth, so he said, Well, all the other teachers are occupied, so Im the one who brought the kids to take the test.
Zhou Cheng nodded and said, Enough talking, lets have some tea. How long will the kids take for the exam?
2.5 hours! Principal Chen replied, From 9 am to 11:30 am. I have to pick them up at 11 am. After all, these kids are young and might be scared in this unfamiliar place.
Actually, what he was more afraid of was Xiao Jinli running around with the other two students.
So, its better to go to the exam room early to catch them.
Suddenly, he thought of something and immediately put down his teacup. Ah Cheng, Im sorry, I just remembered something important I need to do. Ill be back later!
Then, without waiting for Zhou Chengs reaction, he hurriedly left.
When he left, he deliberately checked the time. The exam started at 9 am, and it was now 9:15 am. He hoped the girl hadnt left the examination room yet.
Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to find her as a young girl running around in this county town without a cellphone.
Principal Chen hurried to County First Primary School, and as soon as he arrived at the school gate, he bumped into Xiao Jinli, who was just about to leave.
He knew it would be like this! Just as he suspected!
Principal Chens face was full of black lines.
After a moment, he put on a friendly smile and asked, Xiao Jinli, have you finished the exam so quickly?
Xiao Jinli nodded and said, Yeah, after finishing those questions, sitting there was somewhat boring. If I fell asleep in the exam room, the invigilating teacher would keep casting glances at me, which would be quite uncomfortable. So, I just handed in my paper and left.
Upon hearing this, Principal Chen urgently asked, Do you think the questions were difficult?
Xiao Jinli really wanted to roll her eyes at him. She said, Principal Chen, what kind of question is that? If the questions were difficult, would I have handed in the paper without finishing them? Since I promised to do this for you, Ill do it well. Otherwise, I wouldnt have agreed.
Having heard Xiao Jinlis words, Principal Chen was so excited that he didnt know how to express his emotions.
He nodded and said, Good, good, thats great! Although I dont want to put pressure on you, I still hope you can win the big prize for me!
Thinking about the exam paper he gave her the day before yesterday, she finished it in twenty minutes and got all the questions right.
He already knew that Xiao Jinli was hiding her talent, but he didnt expect her to give him such a big surprise.
In the past, he hoped Xiao Jinli could bring back a prize.
Now, he further hoped that Xiao Jinli could bring back a big prize.
Once Principal Chen had calmed down, he asked, Where do you plan to go now? Its only been half an hour since the exam started, and Li Xiaohua and Lan Dahai wont be out until 11:30 am. If were going to the amusement park, we might have to wait until the afternoon.
Xiao Jinli thought for a moment and said, I want to go to the National
Bookstore to look at some books!
Ah, the bookstore? Principal Chen asked with a slightly surprised expression, Do you still like reading? I thought you only liked sleeping? Otherwise, why would you always sleep in class?
Xiao Jinli chuckled and said, Principal Chen, I dont actually like sleeping, its just that I understand everything the teachers teach in class, so I dont need to spend that time listening to them.
Of course, she also didnt deny that she liked sleeping.
Hearing this explanation, Principal Chen suddenly understood.
He also found it rather amusing and said, So, thats what it is. But since your grades have always been average, youve been misunderstood by the teachers. Actually, its your fault, not your classmates or teachers. If youre capable of getting good grades, why would you purposely make them average? Isnt it better to be top-notch? Every day, you could be praised by the school and envied by your classmates. Others want to get top grades and work hard for it, but you, on the other hand, take it easy. Youre not like a primary school student at all.
Xiao Jinli bluntly said, Getting good grades is annoying and troublesome! I also dont like being constantly watched like a monkey!
Xiao Jinli didnt hold back her feelings in front of Principal Chen.
After listening, Principal Chen looked somewhat stunned.
It turned out that Xiao Jinli didnt want to get good grades for this reason.
She actually found getting good grades to be troublesome.
Once Principal Chen had recovered, he found it both funny and helpless.
Its like discovering a treasure but not being able to dig it up, for fear that the treasure would be destroyed once you started digging.
Thats how he felt right now.
Principal Chen thought for a moment before saying, Oh, so thats how it is! Hearing Principal Chens calm tone, Xiao Jinli was slightly surprised.
She raised her eyebrows, smiled, and asked, Principal Chen, arent you going to persuade me to get better grades?
Principal Chen laughed and said, I do want to persuade you. But are you the type to listen? If you were, we would have talked to you earlier, but you never took it seriously. Instead of wasting our breath, its better to let you be free.
At this point, he asked curiously, Youre in fourth grade now. When its time for high school, there will be good schools, and the average ones too; theyre all based on grades. Whats your plan for this?
Xiao Jinli tilted her little head and said without hesitation, For me, it doesnt matter which school I go to. As long as its close to home, its fine!
According to her familys expectations, she would definitely be able to attend high school.
There are high schools in only the county town.
By the time shes in high school, her family will definitely buy a house there.
She added, Haha, Im still in elementary school now, and there are three more years until junior high. As for high school, theres still plenty of time. Well talk about it later.
Principal Chens eyes darted around, and he said with a smile, Xiao Jinli, lets make a deal, shall we?
Seeing Principal Chens fox-like smile, Xiao Jinlis hackles rose, and her expression became guarded. She said, Principal Chen, just say what you need to say. This creepy uncle deceiving little girls attitude is scaring me.
Principal Chen went straight to the point: Alright. Lets cut to the chase. Can you directly crush everyone in the primary-to-junior high transition and win glory for the school just once more?
Xiao Jinli,
Indeed, hes a creepy uncle who deceives little girls..
