1980s: I was reborn after being scumbag to death

Chapter 195 Responsible?

After checking everyone's grades, the head teacher took Meng Shulan to the school office.

It was agreed that once the preliminary exam results came out, Meng Shulan would be given a certificate so that she could study at the No. 5 Middle School in the city.

Along the way, the head teacher kept urging Meng Shulan to seize this opportunity, strive to be admitted to a good foreign language university, and set a role model for her younger classmates.

Meng Shulan nodded continuously.

The two went to the school office. From a distance, Meng Shulan saw Gu Hansong standing at the office door talking to the principal.

So he is here!

Meng Shulan was thinking about how to share her achievements with him when this person appeared.

When the principal saw Meng Shulan coming, he knew that she was here for a certificate, so he asked her to wait a moment. The certificate had been written and just needed to be stamped.

The head teacher and the principal went into the office, but Meng Shulan did not follow them in. Instead, she stood outside with Gu Hansong.

Today, Gu Hansong wore a white shirt with pinstripe stripes, paired with dark blue sweatpants and sneakers. He looked clean and refreshing, like a college student.

Meng Shulan asked him, "When did you come here?"

Gu Hansong: "I just arrived not long ago."

When he entered the room and saw her near the teachers' dormitory, he came over to find the principal first.

Meng Shulan: "Do you know my pre-exam results?"

"Yeah. I did well on the test."

As soon as they met, the principal told him that her grades ranked sixth in the city and second in the county.

It’s great that the little girl who cried so hard that she had difficulty counting to fifty when she was young has grown up and is so dazzling that it makes his nose sore.

Meng Shulan: "When are we going to the city?"

This is just a preliminary exam, not the college entrance examination, and Meng Shulan doesn't want to stop moving forward at all.

Gu Hansong: "Tomorrow. Auntie said that the factory will give you an extra lunch to celebrate."

Before coming here, Gu Hansong went to the Meng family. He didn't see Meng Shulan, but chatted with He Jinqiu for a few words.

Although it was not the college entrance examination, the pre-examination was also a big deal. It happened that his daughter was going to study in the city again, so He Jinqiu wanted to do something for her and have an extra meal at the factory to have some fun together.

The workshop has moved these days from the small courtyard to the newly built factory building.

Although the chosen start date has not yet arrived and the personnel and machines are not all in place, it is still possible to have some fun first.

Meng Shulan smiled, "Then let's do it tomorrow."

Last year, Meng Shulan passed the preliminary exam, and her family killed chickens and fish and called her sister's family to eat, which was a lively occasion for the whole family.

At that time, her family cheered her on with a winning mentality, but who knew that when the critical moment of the college entrance examination came, she messed up.

In this life, everyone in the factory is cheering for her, and Meng Shulan feels embarrassed to disappoint everyone.

After getting the certificate, Meng Shulan and Gu Hansong left first. They had to go to the town office to get another identity certificate before completing the procedures.

When the two of them were leaving the school, they saw many people with sad expressions carrying their luggage and preparing to go home.

Nearly two hundred people took the preliminary exam, and only one-third of them passed. Only a small number of them were happy, while a large number of people actually returned home disappointed.

Gu Hansong saw someone carrying a quilt and a bamboo mat, and asked Meng Shulan if she wanted to collect the things. He happened to be there and could help.

Meng Shulan: "My dad came over a few days ago to help take the things away..."

As the two talked, their figures slowly disappeared outside the school gate.

In the girls' dormitory at school.

Ye Ran, carrying her things, sat on the flower bed downstairs and started crying.

She had failed the preliminary exam and her grades were very poor, ranking outside the top 150 in school. With this score, it would be very difficult for her to repeat the year.

Moreover, she had already repeated a grade once. When she came to check the scores, Ye Pingshun had already told her that if she couldn't even pass the preliminary exam, there would be no need to repeat the grade again. She could go back home to work and find someone to marry.

Ye Ran doesn't want to work, and even less does she want to marry casually.

but……

Woo woo woo, what should I do!

I don’t even dare to go home.

Ye Ran has been doing well in school in recent years. Even though Meng Shulan embarrassed her and made her laugh last year, she still seems quite popular because she always takes out a tutorial book. At least the lower grade students will call her "senior sister" when they see her.

Ye Ran usually enjoys this feeling of superiority and walks with her head held high.

But now, she was as miserable as a poor homeless puppy, sitting there pitifully, with nowhere to go and no one to comfort her.

What is there to comfort her? Those who failed the exam are feeling the same as her. They are sad themselves, so how can they care about others?

Those who were lucky enough to pass were so happy that they couldn't help but smile. It was not a good idea to persuade those classmates who were wiping away tears, so as to avoid being envied and being accused of gloating.

Moreover, Ye Ran's reputation has been almost ruined in the past six months. Now that she has passed the exams, no one expects her to borrow books anymore. Who would still want to pay attention to her?

Ye Ran just sat there pitifully until Han Ning appeared in front of her with his hands in his pockets and a sinister look in his eyes.

When Ye Ran saw Han Ning, she felt complicated and unwilling.

He passed.

I didn’t expect he passed!

In the final ranking test before the preliminaries, Han Ning was already ranked outside the top 100. Based on this score, he shouldn't have passed...

But this guy actually passed!!!

He passed, and even if he couldn't get into university in the future, with the Han family's connections, he should be able to get into a technical secondary school.

Technical secondary schools in this era also assign jobs.

From now on, he would have a stable job, and as for me...

Ye Ran's mood hit rock bottom.

Ye Ran had thought about it in advance because she was not sure about the preliminary exam this time.

She knows very well what her level is.

At first she thought, if she couldn't pass the exam, then she couldn't pass it. Anyway, she had Han Ning by her side, and she could just stick to him and cling to him.

Last time, Han Ning kissed her in the alley outside the school, and Ye Ran would not let it go easily.

In the village, not to mention kissing, even holding hands means you have to take responsibility.

There was no way she could just let it go as if nothing had happened.

After that, Ye Ran also contacted Han Ning twice and made it clear that he needed to take responsibility.

But at that time everyone was preparing for the preliminary exam, time was tight, and many things could not be said.

Ye Ran thought, let's wait until after the preliminary exam. Anyway, there is no hope for both of them. No matter what he does or where he goes, she will follow him. She must find a way to make him marry her. Even if she can't take over the Han family's job in the future, she can still follow Han Ning to the city to enjoy a good life.

but now……

Ye Ran wiped her tears and stared at Han Ning, "I told you, we can't just let this go. You must take responsibility."

Han Ning looked at her amusedly, "Oh? Then tell me, how should I be responsible?"
