Rebirth 2010, the best

Chapter 60: When Your Name Is on the List

Lu Yao was held and rocked vigorously by his mother, and he even felt warm water droplets dripping onto his neck.

Instinctively, he slapped his mother's arms around him...

Mom, you used too much force. Your big baby can’t breathe.

What kind of good person would arm-cross his son on such a happy occasion?
Then, a belated smile appeared on his face.

Ok.

I did well in the exam.

Don’t take the test next time.

At this moment, he felt a hand on his shoulder.

It's dad's.

Lu Yao instinctively turned his head and saw that his father's eyes were fixed on the computer screen without blinking, while the hand on his shoulder was gradually gaining strength.

Lu Yao thought to himself, you two might as well just crush me to death.

So he forced himself to stand up, turned around and hugged his mother.

"Wuwuwu... son of a bitch!!!"

Ms. Chen is still immersed in this emotion and cannot extricate herself.

She cried even harder after being hugged by her son.

Lu Yao's other hand reached out to his father.

Finally, it is the warm embrace of my sister.

The family of four hugged each other tightly and shared the joy.

Silence is better than sound.

……

The night ended with Lu Yuanshan saying, "Son has to go to work tomorrow morning, so go to bed."

Although Ms. Chen's emotions had not yet calmed down, she was still forcibly taken away by her husband.

Lu Qing was originally eager to teach his brother some of his “experienced” experience, but was ruthlessly kicked out.

According to Lu Yao's idea: You should be grateful to my ancestors for not kicking you out of the bedroom today, you bastard.

Finally, Lu Yao lay down in the living room and fell asleep listening to his parents whispering in the bedroom.

……

Xu Ruochu's schedule is actually very regular.

She usually finishes her work around 11 o'clock in the evening. After finishing, she takes a shower, does her skin care, and finally lies on the bed to pick a book she likes. She reads until she feels sleepy and then falls asleep. Then she wakes up drowsily in the middle of the night, turns off the desk lamp, and then sleeps until dawn.

However, because she had to go on a business trip on the 23rd, she went to bed early. After taking a melatonin tablet, she fell asleep at a little after 11 o'clock.

She went to bed early and woke up early. She opened her eyes a little after 7 o'clock.

After waking up, she went straight into the bathroom and started washing and putting on makeup.

When I finished the work, it was just before 7:.

Only then did she have time to look at her phone.

Two news messages will be pushed to her mobile phone at 7 o'clock every morning, one from China Mobile and the other from Shanghai Mobile.

It is a meeting point between international news and domestic news.

Then pair it with a cup of scented tea to start a new day.

After seeing these two news items, she didn't care at first. She glanced at the international news to understand the international situation, and then clicked on the local news push in Shanghai.

But when she saw the content of the headline, she was stunned.

"Today's college entrance examination score query is open, and the top scorer in Shanghai is freshly announced"

College entrance examination...oh yes.

Today seems to be the day when Lu Yao’s college entrance examination results will be announced.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but click on the news.

"The 2010 Shanghai area college entrance examination results query has officially opened at 0: today..."

She read it one by one. The first part of the news was about this year's college entrance examination, how difficult it was, the query time periods across the country, etc. But when she saw the second half of the news, she was suddenly stunned.

"Currently, the highest score in the college entrance examination in Shanghai is 720 points. Lu Yao from Nanyang Model Middle School in XH District has become the undisputed champion of Shanghai's college entrance examination with an impressive score of 720 points..."

Xu Ruochu blinked subconsciously.

His eyes focused again and looked at the name.

Classmate Lu Yao...

Number one scholar… ?
Isn’t he 707 points?

How come it suddenly got 720 points?

She thought subconsciously.

But as this thought came to mind, a feeling of... surprise, speechlessness, disbelief, and a bit of inexplicable joy quickly emerged from my heart.

Lu Yao...is the top scholar?

No.1???
At this moment, she suddenly noticed from the corner of her eye that the screen of the video phone in the bathroom lit up.

I turned my head subconsciously and saw Lu Yao opening the door and walking in with a few large plastic bags in his hands.

"...???"

Her emotions suddenly felt unreal.

I looked at my phone, then at the empty door on the screen...

Suddenly I didn't know what to say.

……

To Lu Yao, this morning was actually no different from any other morning.

He didn't go to bed late yesterday, but he was still a little sleepy.

When he got up early to eat, his father brought him a small plastic bag.

The size of a baby's palm.

There were about seven or eight herbal tablets inside.

"American ginseng is used to refresh yourself. When you get on the highway, take one tablet. Don't take too many. One tablet is enough. When you get to the destination, your boss will be busy. You can rest in the car. Take another tablet when you come back."

"All right."

"Don't drink Red Bull, it doesn't work and it's harmful to your health."

"understood."

"Don't speed. In fact, 110 is enough. If there is a car behind you, you should give way to them on the right. If there is a large car in front of you, flash your headlights twice and turn left to let them know that you want to overtake."

"I know."

"If you encounter two cars very close to each other in front of you, you should slow down and see if the larger truck is going to overtake. Generally speaking, if the two cars are of similar models or have the same logistics logo on their exteriors, they are in a convoy and generally there is nothing wrong. But if the two cars look different, you must overtake them. Don't compete with the larger truck for the road, because you won't be able to win."

"……Know it."

"Don't be impatient while driving, and be sure to fasten your seat belts. There are a lot of cars on the Shanghai-Hangzhou section, so be sure to keep a safe distance..."

"..."

Lu Yao was speechless as he watched his father, who didn't even eat but sat next to him and started to impart his experience.

I thought to myself, when you asked me to help you run more than 16 kilometers during the summer vacation when I was , why didn’t you say so much?
You slept very soundly that night.

However, there is no way.

Lu Yuanshan really wanted to pass on all his lifelong driving experience to his son.

In the end, he even became more and more worried, and he rolled up his sleeves and urged Lu Yao to go with him to drive the female president...

Lu Yao ran so fast.

After arriving at the female president's house, he put the breakfast prepared by his mother on the table, then sat on the stool at the door to change shoes and waited for her to get up. At the same time, he was also watching the news, intending to check the results of the national college entrance examination.

Unfortunately, in order to prevent the server from being paralyzed due to a large number of users accessing the site in a short period of time, the college entrance examination results are released in different time periods and regions.

Yanjing and Modu are the earliest cities, and other provinces will be released little by little.

In the Demon City area, he is the tallest.

And the news online also said that this year's test questions were more difficult, so everyone's scores were generally not high.

Among the current “top scorers”, he has the highest score.

The second place is Jiangsu Province, with the highest score of 709.

Looking at these scores...all provinces have opened the door for checking college entrance examination scores, and Inner Mongolia is the last to open, which is 4 pm today.

Maybe... I can become the top scholar in the country?
All of a sudden, his blood began to flow faster.

Somewhat excited.

At this moment, there was a sound coming from the direction of the bedroom. He looked up subconsciously and saw the female president with light makeup and very conservative pajamas walking out.

As soon as Xu Ruochu came out, his eyes quickly locked on him.

"..."

"Morning, Mr. Xu."

Lu Yao stood up and said.

"Uh……"

Although she was already used to this kind of greeting.

Can……

But today feels a little different.

The person standing in front of him... is this year's newly nominated top scorer in the Magic City Golden List.

She always thought Lu Yao was excellent.

Even if you count the two of them, they have only known each other for about half a month.

But...the aura of talent from outstanding people cannot be stopped.

By seeing the whole picture from a small part, Xu Ruochu knew that this big boy in front of him must have a bright future.

But...she really didn't expect it.

The other party unexpectedly transformed himself from a designated driver 107 into the new top scholar.

This is just the Demon City...

Just now, she roughly took a look and found that the college entrance examination scores of other provinces... were not as high as his.

The provinces that have emerged now are almost all the provinces that have consistently swept the national college entrance examination top scorers for many years.

The Magic City...hasn't produced a top scorer in the college entrance examination for a long time.

At present, Lu Yao's score surpasses the top scorers in other provinces.

Plus... Shanghai hasn't won a championship in a long time.

Combining the two together...the value of this championship ring is self-evident.

For a moment, she was speechless as she looked at the boy standing at the door, always keeping a polite distance.

Totally don't know what to say.

And in her speechlessness, an idea unconsciously popped up in her mind.

This kind of talented, excellent and sunny boy...there must be a lot of girls who like him, right?
At this time...

"Mr. Xu, it's time for us to set off."

"Uh……"

Xu Ruochu came to his senses.

Nodding subconsciously:
"it is good."

"Well, please have breakfast first. Is there anything you need me to take down?"

"No……"

Xu Ruochu shook his head again, looked at Lu Yao and thought for a while, then said:

"You... scored 720 points?"

"Ah."

Facing her question, Lu Yao nodded:
"Luckily."

"You call that lucky?"

She was speechless for a moment.

Some were even amused by the anger.

Lu Yao thought to himself, I am just being modest, sister.

But he didn't hesitate. Instead, he checked the time on his phone and said, "Boss Xu, let's have breakfast. We have to leave."

After being reminded by him, Xu Ruochu also realized that he had to hurry up.

So he nodded:
"it is good."

……

Xu Ruochu ate absent-mindedly during this meal.

the reason is simple.

Aunt Li had washed most of the clothes. After he took them, she said hello to him, took out a lot of hangers from the cloakroom, and began to organize the new clothes that had been washed once.

Lu Yao has always been very considerate.

From the meat sauce in the fridge, to these clothes…she’s always understood.

But today there is something different.

When she was eating, her eyes would unconsciously glance towards the sofa.

The newly crowned number one scholar is folding his own clothes.

He folded each one by himself.

Whenever she thought of this, a warm current would flow through her body.

An indescribable feeling was rippling around.

It’s like... a stunningly beautiful woman who rides away from home, but at home... she chops wood, boils water, washes clothes and cooks for herself.

This feeling……

too weird.

It was so strange that I couldn't take my eyes away.

I don't want "her" to stop at all.

Especially when I think that if people knew about it, someone would definitely say that I was "wasting nature's gift"...

The heat flow became stronger.

Unconsciously, she, who had always been impeccable in etiquette, folded her legs together.

Stare at him.

Until... Lu Yao noticed it and turned his head away.

"Boss Xu, have you finished eating?"

He saw that the other party had put down his bowl and chopsticks and was looking in his direction with his chin resting on his hand, so he thought that the other party had finished his meal.

So I put down my work:
"Then let's go? It takes at least two hours to get to Suzhou and Hangzhou from here. How about we come back tonight and fold them?"

"……Um."

Xu Ruochu actually didn't eat much.

But now I feel full for some reason.

He nodded, stood up and said:
"I'm going to change clothes."

"it is good."

After Lu Yao tidied up one last piece of clothing, he stood up and subconsciously glanced at the lunch box, only to find that the female president had not eaten much.

Is it because the wontons mom makes are not to her liking?

Or...she doesn't like the three-fresh filling?

……

Suzhou and Hangzhou are not far from Shanghai, but Xu Ruochu still travels in Maybach.

There was a lot of traffic in Magic City during the morning rush hour. Lu Yao drove very attentively all the way, and it was already 9 o'clock when he got out of Magic City and onto the highway.

Fortunately, Xu Ruochu's schedule today was to have lunch with people from Suzhou and Hangzhou at noon and meet someone in the afternoon, so he was not in a hurry.

For some reason, her attention was focused on the college entrance examination news on her mobile phone throughout the journey.

Every time she sees news saying that this year's college entrance examination questions are more difficult, she feels happy.

As soon as he got on the highway, a phone call rang in the Maybach's Berlin sound, interrupting his playlist.

Lu Yao instinctively glanced at the rearview mirror and said:
"Boss Xu, can I take a call?"

"it is good."

Xu Ruochu responded casually.

Lu Yao then connected the car's Bluetooth phone:

"Hello, how are you?"

"Haha, Lu Yao, I'm the Dean of Education Liu Bin, are you up?"

Lu Yao was stunned and said quickly:

"Hello, Director. I'm already up."

"Hahaha~"

There was another hearty laugh from Liu Bin:

"Have you checked the scores?"

"Checked."

"Hahahaha, you didn't have insomnia last night, did you?"

"No, thank you for your concern, Director. I slept well."

"Hahahahaha..."

Xu Ruochu in the back row twitched his mouth.

"Congratulations, Lu Yao, you scored 720 points in the college entrance examination! You have become the top scorer in our Magic City! On behalf of the school, I congratulate you!"

"Thank you, Director. All this is inseparable from the school, the principal, you, our class teacher, Mr. Li, and the teaching of all the teachers. Without the hard work of the teachers, I would not have achieved such a good result."

"Harry..."

Liu Bin was delighted after hearing Lu Yao's polite words.

"The teachers are all happy for you, too. Lu Yao, this time you are not only the top scorer in Magic City, but based on your current scores... you may even be the top scorer in the country, do you know that?!"

At this point, Liu Bin's voice became excited.

The school has produced a national top scholar... This achievement cannot be overstated.

Nanyang Model High School has always been very famous among the public schools in Shanghai and is a very good school.

But when it comes to fame, it has always been overshadowed by Shanghai Middle School, East China Normal University Affiliated Middle School, and Fuhua University Affiliated Middle School.

If a national champion really emerged, it would be a great honor. In addition, all the teachers in the school who were related to Lu Yao would definitely have a clear job title evaluation next year.

He is the school's principal, so he naturally deserves a share of the credit.

It's impossible to say I'm not excited.

"Uh... I haven't dared to think about it yet, but I am quite satisfied with this result."

"Hahaha (omitted)..."

Liu Bin laughed again and continued:

"Moreover, after the school's research, Lu Yao, didn't I tell you before about the reward for the top student in Magic City in our school?"

"Yes, I told you."

"If you can get the national top scorer, the school will reward you another 50 yuan on top of the original amount. In addition, we will strive for bonuses from the district and city for you. We estimate that your bonus may be around yuan! This is the reward from the school!"

"Oh?"

Lu Yao's interest was piqued immediately.

"Can you add more?"

"Haha... Of course, you did so well in the exam, so you will definitely get a lot of rewards."

When Xu Ruochu, who was sitting in the back row, heard that there would be another reward of 200,000 yuan, he did not feel any emotion.

But when she heard Lu Yao's raised-pitched response, she subconsciously glanced at him.

"Anyway, Lu Yao, congratulations."

"Thank you, director."

"Well, there is one more thing. Your results have been announced. There should be a lot of radio reporters who want to interview you soon..."

As we speak, there are quite a lot of cars.

Lu Yao subconsciously gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands and became more focused.

After hearing what he said, he agreed casually:

"I understand, Director. All of this is inseparable from the cultivation of my alma mater. I am also very grateful to my alma mater for giving me this opportunity to be interviewed..."

"Harry."

"But, Director, I'm driving now..."

"Ah? That's all. Just remember to keep your phone open. See you the day after tomorrow!"

"Mmm Good."

Lu Yao politely hung up the phone.

Xu Ruochu's voice sounded:

"Why are you so excited when you talk about money?"

"It's a bit exciting."

Lu Yao nodded:
"These extra 200,000 yuan will be enough for my sister's tuition and living expenses for the first two years."

Xu Ruochu didn't seem surprised by this answer.

Just asked:

"Auntie agrees?"

"No. My mom is definitely worried, but my dad is working on it. And... once I get the money back, her pressure will definitely be much less. It should be... no problem."

"But it's only enough for two years, right?"

“My family is also making money.”

"Jingle Bell……"

Before he could finish his words, the music from Berlin was interrupted again.

After Lu Yao found that it was another unfamiliar number, he said:
"Mr. Xu..."

"Take it."

After Xu Ruochu finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something and picked up his phone.

"Hello, classmate Lu Yao, I am a reporter from the Magic City Education Network..."

This reporter wanted to interview Lu Yao.

Make an appointment with him.

Lu Yao could only respond:
"Sorry, can it wait... tonight? I'm still working."

"Ah? Work?"
