Love Letters

Chapter 218: Can't roll it up, can't lie flat, can't be broken, just die

Ever since she escaped from the last place for the first time, she has been hovering around the bottom 20 or 30, with no major improvement, nor any major regression.

This overnight return to the time before liberation was undoubtedly a major blow to all her efforts over that period of time.

What made her most sad was that although she had tried very hard to understand every question, this frivolous transcript still declared her mediocrity.

After the exam, the class was in chaos, noisy and bustling, as if it was seeking revenge for the quiet and serious study days during the exam period.

Amid the noise, He Miao looked out the window, thinking about the future. The books on the table were placed so high that she could not see the blackboard or the future.

The poem “The Road to Shu” that I was reluctant to memorize in high school suddenly became clear in my mind.

When she thought about it after the exam, she almost cried.

She really put a lot of effort into this exam and took it more seriously than any other time.

However, reality caught her off guard.

Xu Mobai also noticed her and took her paper to look at it.

He Miao watched his brows become more and more furrowed.

"Did you not read the questions carefully during this exam?"

Xu Mobai's simple words were so powerful that He Miao couldn't even answer him.

"I........"

To be honest, she felt good about herself when she took the exam and really didn't expect that she would be ranked last.

She later reviewed the test paper several times and found that she was indeed very careless. She could have saved many points, especially some questions that she read incorrectly...

"Okay, keep trying next time."

Xu Mobai comforted her softly.

The sun sets, and its afterglow shines on the white corridor, making the boy look a little red.

It came like an unexpected spring breeze, shaking her soul and making her unable to recover for a long time.

She subconsciously turned her head away.

Just like her hatred of the rich, she hates people with good academic performance...

She glanced in the direction of Xu Mobai. He was really teaching her seriously, more attentive than her teacher or herself.

But she was really unlucky in this exam.

She suddenly felt a little ashamed, especially for her thoughts just now.

"You see, the top students are not taught. They can accurately grasp the key points from a bunch of random text."

Wang Youzhi came out of nowhere and his words sounded a bit sarcastic.

It was rare that He Miao did not retort, because she did have some problems with the exam.

A heavy rain came down, shattering all the fantasies.

There was no evening self-study today. After school, He Miao said hello to Xu Mobai and then left first.

When I got back, I saw He Dahai, who was making dinner.

Seeing her come back, he was a little excited, "Dad came back early today, just tell me what you want to eat, Dad will show you his recipe."

He Miao was already in a bad mood, and after hearing what He Dahai said, he felt even more upset.

"Dad, I really can't seem to learn wuwuwu..."

This is what Zhang Meili saw when she came back: He Miao and He Dahai, father and daughter, hugging and crying...

"There's nothing I can do if you can't learn it. Your mother and I won't force you."

The next day, He Miao's eyes were still swollen.

It just so happened that the first class was taught by Hu Datu.

He looked over here, and He Miao was stunned by his gaze and lowered his head silently.

He seemed to have noticed her reaction, but this time he didn't call her name or say anything sarcastic.

She reached a bottleneck in her studies and couldn't concentrate on learning. She became more and more irritable.

Plus, I was busy studying all day and was dizzy.

He Miao was so distracted in class that he felt he could no longer concentrate on listening to the lectures and studying.

If you can't learn it, you can't learn it at all.

In class, the teacher was explaining the test paper.

All the students around her have made progress, big or small, except her.

He Miao suddenly realized a terrible fact, that is, she could not change her fate...

Her struggles were pointless.

Since we are going to die anyway, we might as well die easily...

Alas! I can’t roll it up, I can’t lie it flat, I can’t put it away, I’ll just die…

Finally, at noon one day, He Miao sneaked out during the break.

When the bell rang, she walked out the back door cautiously, facing the drizzle, walking alone in the campus, with lightning lighting up the entire sky.

He Miao looked at himself and his reflection in the water, and measured the campus with his footsteps.

As I walked, I started to run wildly in the heavy rain, saying goodbye to the past and this period of time in this way.

"How did you come?"

Zhang Meili was a little surprised when she saw her while she was mopping the floor.

"I'm here to help."

As he spoke, He Miao put down his bag and took the tools from Zhang Meili.

Zhang Meili dodged and said, "If you are so energetic, go to the back of the kitchen and unload the goods."

He Miaozhen went over and moved the things one piece at a time.

"I don't want to study anymore."

Zhang Meili was cleaning the hall and seemed not to hear what she was saying.

Perhaps it was a good thing that he didn't hear it. He Miao didn't dare to repeat the same words and decided not to mention it again.

"what did you just say?"

Zhang Meili seemed to have heard some shocking news. He suddenly looked at her, as if he wanted her to explain herself clearly.

"I...I mean I don't really want to read on..."

"If you don't want to study, what do you want to do? Do you want to go to heaven?"

"At worst, I can go to the factory!"

He Miao said it lightly, but in fact he was very panicked and upset.

Zhang Meili couldn't believe her ears. She looked at He Miao with sharp eyes and mocked her.

"What can you do with your small body? No one in the factory wants you."

“But I can’t read it.”

“You have to read even if you can’t understand it.”

Zhang Meili rarely showed her toughness, "Why did you come to me?"

"I'm here to help you."

"I don't need your help!"

Suddenly realizing something, Zhang Meili asked her, "Don't you have class today?"

Seeing He Miao hesitating, Zhang Meili knew what was going on. "Did you skip class?"

"I......."

"What am I?"

Zhang Meili pushed her towards the door and said, "Go back right now and tell your teacher and the principal and ask for their forgiveness."

"I won't reply."

"You have to go back even if you don't want to!"

"Can you please stop saying hurtful things? I would be sad too. I have my self-esteem too."

"You are already old enough to be supported by others. What else can you do besides studying hard?"

"It's no use learning. You'll die anyway."

"What are you talking about?"

He Miao suddenly thought of his future and became depressed. "No matter how hard I study, nothing can change. If I don't do well in the exam, I will die. Then let me die..."

"Pa!" A very crisp slapping sound rang out in the quiet hall.
