Age of Legends

Chapter 40 Good Beauty

While Zhang Chen was reading his composition.

Some people were suddenly touched and burst into tears. Maybe it was not necessarily because of their poor grades, but it also reminded them of many experiences of being discriminated against and ignored, making it difficult for them to suppress the unfairness and sadness in their hearts.

Some people bite their lips and chant the phrase "Don't be afraid of the dangers and waves in the world, you will return home when the storms are over", and their hands clench into fists invisibly, thus gaining infinite power.

There were also people who were speaking eloquently just now but now remained silent.

Some people sighed softly, "I'm not a bad student, but I think everyone should read this essay."

The vice-president turned to the principal and said, "This article does not provide any direction for construction, it only outputs emotions."

Chen Qiushi, the principal of Yude, said, "He is just a student. What educational problems and solutions do you want him to bring up? Will anyone believe him? It is good enough that he expressed his emotions and resonated with people!"

The vice-principal nodded repeatedly. By speaking through the principal, he achieved his goal.

There was also a teacher in the front row who seemed to have heard the discussion of the students behind him. He turned around and said in a deep voice, "Just listen, don't learn it! It's not something you can learn! Just write according to my requirements."

Yes, although this essay, which was recognized as having received full marks by the Chinese language examination team, criticized the stereotyped routine and expressed dissatisfaction with the cramming-like education method, it was also shouting for a poor student who was out of tune with this environment, unable to adapt normally and could only be trapped where he was.

But at this moment, the teachers still choose to let the students behind them not really fight against the system.

Qin Guimei is an emotional person. After hearing Zhang Chen's composition, she felt that she had been too cruel in the past. She felt so guilty every time she read out Zhang Chen's last-place score in public! That's why she felt even more guilty. She kept shedding tears and crying.

Zhou Ming was horrified. He was afraid that Zhang Chen would jump out of the composition. "My head teacher Zhou Ming took my things and ridiculed me without giving up the suppression." He really felt a chill down his spine. He clearly felt how threatening the person who had the right to speak was, enough to make his limbs cold throughout the whole process.

Wang Shuowei thought Zhang Chen's writing was damn good. If it wasn't a perfect essay, then what was a perfect essay? It just expressed the inner voice of a person like him. In the dead of night, he had thought that one day he would be able to get rid of being a poor student and become a truly excellent student, as if that would be the way to grasp the future.

Good brothers are really good brothers, they all think alike. No, good brothers have betrayed the revolution, I won’t pay any attention to him!

The school gave positive affirmation to this article, so it received full marks.

But just after Zhang Chen finished reading, the head of the grade group did not forget to add at this time, "Zhang Chen's essay, from the perspective of a poor student, expressed that he was not valued and was eager to find a learning method that suits him, that is, a way that combines physical, intellectual and aesthetic learning! And Zhang Chen has also shown through his actual actions that he deserves this full-mark essay. The leap from more than 600 to more than 200 in a short period of time is the answer given by Zhang Chen!"

"Therefore, we give him the Best Improvement Award! I hope Zhang Chen will continue to work hard, and all our classmates will see his persistence and hard work. As long as you work hard from now on, it is never too late to start!"

The school should naturally try to guide the situation in a positive direction. But Zhang Chen was a little unhappy when he heard this on the stage.

How come you misinterpreted my words?

I finished answering the Chinese test paper ahead of time and spent an hour writing such a long essay. What the hell are you explaining to me?

Just when the head teacher was about to ask everyone to calm down and get their emotions back from what had just happened, and announce the next list of awards.

Zhang Chen grabbed the gooseneck microphone, pointed at the crowd below, and shouted, "Don't believe it! My current test scores are not a reference! Don't think you are not good enough, find your own way, find a way that suits you! - Don't listen to them! Always stay passionate! Passion!"

After saying this, he dropped the microphone and jumped off the flag-raising platform without even looking at the pale-faced grade director and school leaders.

At this moment, countless people burst into "Fuck!" and "Awesome!"

Then there was thunderous applause.

It is easy to say "find your own way and walk your own way", but many people here will not understand the value of this sentence until many, many years later.

……

The applause lasted for so long that it affected the subsequent award ceremony and people’s hearts were divided.

Later the ceremony ended.

Everyone returned to the classroom, and the school newspaper "Chunhua" was snapped up like never before.

Because Zhang Chen only read the composition once, almost everyone wanted to see the entire text in person and read it carefully.

Then the teaching building was in turmoil.

For the first time, the small magazine "Chunhua" felt the meaning of the idiom "paper is in great demand in Luoyang", and the small print volume was simply not enough to be distributed.

Before long, those thinly bound booklets, like lambs caught in a pack of wolves, were quickly eaten.

The eve of the winter vacation in 2000 was originally just an ordinary and exciting start of the winter vacation in everyone's habit, but in this way, it became a part of the memory of Yude High School. …

After school, Xu Xudong rushed to Class 7. He went to find Huang Lili, but actually he wanted to talk to Zhuang Yanyue.

They now have something in common.

That is the dark horse Zhang Chen who suddenly emerged. There are too many topics to talk about him.

So Xu Xudong thought that he could get Zhuang Yanyue's phone number this time in anticipation of the winter vacation.

"Hi! Huang Lili! Hi! Zhuang Yanyue!" Xu Xudong excitedly blocked Zhuang Yanyue who had just come out at the classroom door.

His face was full of smiles, and he was about to ask Zhuang Yanyue about the movie they had discussed before, "How about we go to the movies together during the holiday? I have a complete set of 007 at home..."

"Are you looking for Huang Lili? I'll leave now, you two can chat." Zhuang Yanyue waved to him and walked past him.

Only Xu Xudong was left standing there. “Huh?”

"Oh……"

the sound of.

Huang Lili was also very excited, "Really? Then I will go to your house during the winter vacation..."

go away.

……

Zhuang Yanyue walked very fast because she calculated that if she went out now and quickly avoided the flow of schoolgoers and reached the end of Building L, she should be able to meet Zhang Chen there.

So when Zhuang Yanyue walked with brisk steps, and even when several famous boys in her grade greeted her, she responded quickly with "Ah!" and "OK!", then ran through the crowd like a deer and occupied the entrance to the corridor that Class 5 had to pass through in advance. Then she immediately restrained her bouncing movements and became gentle and quiet, a transformation in just one second.

She didn't know why she did this.

But at this moment she just wanted it very much.

It's as if I'm afraid that if I don't do it now, I will lose something important immediately.

A crowd of people rushed out in a chaotic manner. Zhang Chen and Wang Shuowei walked outside. Zhang Chen looked down from the railing and saw the familiar figure of a linen backpack.

Zhuang Yanyue?
"Thai ghost..."

Zhang Chen thought about it, turned to Wang Shuowei and said, "Let's go out the back door."

The teaching building has a back door, but the corridor of Class 5 where they are located does not lead to the back door. If they want to go down from the back door, they have to go up one floor, pass through the corridor for the senior grade, and then walk to the corridor on the other side of the teaching building and go down.

"What Thai ghost..." Wang Shuowei was confused, but he had no objection. After all, we are best friends. I don't need a reason to go with you. Let's go. I can go crazy with you occasionally. What's more, your performance today makes me willing to accompany you for 30,000 rounds of drunkenness and laughter!

In fact, during the time from returning to the classroom to assigning homework and clarifying the holiday arrangements, Shen Nuoyi had been looking in Zhang Chen's direction. She had a lot of questions to ask.

When the holiday was announced, as the arts and literature committee member, someone came to discuss making a blackboard newspaper during the holiday, so Shen Nuoyi fell behind in communicating with the monitor.

When I came out, Zhang Chen was gone.

Zheng Xue asked, "These two guys just ran away? Zhang Chen didn't even give you an explanation?"

Shen Nuo looked away and asked, "What did he tell me?"

Zheng Xue stared at Shen Nuoyi with an elusive smile, which made the latter feel a little uncomfortable. She smiled wickedly and said, "Of course, I want to explain why he got such a good score. Don't you want to know? What do you think I want to explain? Explain the words 'The end of the storm is home' in his composition. 'Home'... Is he going to come home and report to you after we live together?"

After saying that, Zheng Xue jumped to the side again and dodged a kick from Shen Nuoyi who was wearing black and white striped sneakers, demonstrating her excellent lightness skills in dealing with the female hero in front of her.

"Zheng Xue!" Shen Nuo's eyes widened in anger.

Zheng Xue sighed.

"What a beautiful lady!"
