The exam paper was handed in at 11:30, which was about the same time Chen Qiao usually left school.
He didn’t have to stay in school for long and could go directly to the intersection to wait for his sister to finish school.
“You didn’t go home from school with the little beauty today.”
Ye Qinglan teased.
As soon as Chen Feifei saw Chen Qiao, she asked, “How did you do in the exam?”
“Very good.”
Chen Qiao said confidently.
He had never felt so wonderful before…”Be more humble, what if you fail the exam?”
Chen Feifei said, tapping Chen Qiao’s forehead with her finger.
“That’s… okay.”
“That’s more like it.”
“Tsk tsk, the ugly face of the academic bully.”
Ye Qinglan sighed, shaking her head.
Chen Qiao was a little absent-minded during his lunch today.
He was thinking about how to ask for pocket money, but he had never asked for pocket money before.
In addition, his psychological age as an adult made it even more difficult for him to ask.
After the results are released next Monday, Chen Qiao should be able to get some pocket money as a reward.
But he has to at least go to the Internet cafe again to confirm that his novel has passed the review and upload chapters for regular updates.
The new book period is very critical.
Not to mention the bonuses and exposure on the new book list, whether he can get a short contract from the site is the key to determining the life and death and upper limit of the novel.
After passing the review, it is left there for two or three days without any attention.
It is basically buried in the sea, which is almost the same as being sentenced to death.
The best thing to do at this time is to delete the original text, change the title and start a new one, but after procrastinating like this, several more days have passed.
Chen Qiao should be able to get internet fees on credit a few times due to his friendship with the boss’s wife, but he doesn’t want to overdraw his credit and reduce the boss’s wife’s favorability towards him.
He should use the money on more valuable and meaningful things.
While Chen Qiao was hesitating, everyone had eaten their fill.
It’s better to borrow from his sister.
He has borrowed a lot from her and he doesn’t feel any psychological burden to act like a spoiled child.
Chen Qiao and Chen Feifei were sitting on the sofa watching today’s animation club.
Chen Qiao leaned on the sofa with both hands and slowly moved closer to his sister.
After their shoulders bumped together, Chen Qiao stammered, “Sister… I have something to ask of you.”
“You can’t even speak clearly, do you want to borrow money?”
“Well… no one knows my brother better than my sister.”
Chen Qiao gave a thumbs up and complimented her.
He didn’t expect his sister to be so direct, saving him the trouble of beating around the bush.
Chen Feifei poked Chen Qiao’s face and said with a smile: “I don’t know you yet. You went to the Internet cafe twice this week and bought snacks and other things. Today is Friday, you must have spent all your money, not even a dime left.”
“That’s true. I spent my last fifty cents buying a cushion this morning. Now I’m penniless.”
Chen Qiao took out the pocket of his school pants; it was empty.
“No, you haven’t paid me back the money I lent you before. If I lend you money again, you will definitely go online again. If my parents knew that I lent you money to go online, our legs would be broken and we would have no pocket money in the future.”
“If I don’t tell you and you don’t tell me, my parents won’t know. Even if they really find out, I will never betray my sister even if you kill me.”
“It still doesn’t work. You’re too addicted to the Internet.”
“I don’t go to the Internet cafe to play games. I’m writing a novel. I need to publish it online or send it to the mailboxes of those publishing houses to get the royalties. All these require the use of a computer. If you don’t believe me, you can come with me to the Internet cafe and see what I’m doing.”
“I won’t go to such a smoky place.”
“Sis, please.”
Chen Qiao held Chen Feifei’s arm and shook it back and forth, and said coquettishly with a shameless face, “Otherwise, if Tian Zhen and Zheng Yan come to play with me, I will be embarrassed to go with them.”
You don’t want your brother to be without any friends, do you?
“I thought they were good kids, but I didn’t expect that, oh…”It’s hard to say who led whom astray.
“I will pay you back as soon as I get the royalties. I will buy you a gift, something delicious, a cell phone, or some pretty clothes or skirts.”
Chen Qiao knew that his sister was saving money to buy a cell phone for use after she went to high school and left home, but he couldn’t bear to buy it now.
He wanted to wait for the price of cell phones to drop before he could buy a better one and use it for a few more years.
“Who asked you to buy gifts? It’s good enough that you can help mom and dad save some trouble.”
Chen Feifei scratched Chen Qiao’s nose and said, obviously not thinking that Chen Qiao could really make money.
“Sister, as long as you lend me money, you can ask me to do anything.”
Chen Qiao stood on the sofa, rubbing Chen Feifei’s slightly stiff shoulders, and said humbly.
“Anything is really possible? Will you obey and do as I say?”
Why does my sister seem to be really interested?
“Yeah, definitely.”
If it were in the past, Chen Feifei would definitely let Chen Qiao study hard and make progress every day, but this matter was related to her younger sister, which made Chen Feifei a little conflicted.
She didn’t know whether she was worried that her younger sister would take away the love of her parents, or something else.
Not allowing my younger brother to go online, knowing full well that he borrowed money just for this, is like forcing him to lie.
“Then…”Chen Feifei closed her eyes, feeling quite comfortable with her brother massaging her shoulders.
She recalled the scene of him blowing her hair last night.
To be honest, it was very troublesome to wash and blow-dry her hair every night, but she was reluctant to cut her hair.
“How about blowing my hair every day?”
Chen Feifei felt a little regretful after she finished speaking.
Every day felt too long, erratic, and unreal.
But a day or two would be a bit of a loss.
A limited date
“Okay.”
Chen Qiao replied immediately. This was something Chen Qiao had been dreaming of.
He was still worrying whether doing it every day would be too attentive, but he didn’t expect his sister to take the initiative to bring it to him.
“Here, ten dollars. I won’t lend you any more money this month. You’ll have your graduation exam soon, so you better be more careful and don’t fail. If you do, you’ll be scolded and no one will be able to save you.”
“Great, I love my sister the most.” Chen Qiao said sincerely.
Chen Qiao, who was rubbing Chen Feifei’s shoulders the last second, took the opportunity to hug her from behind, put his arms around her neck, and hung his whole body on her back.
If you don’t hug me more now, you won’t have the chance to hug me when I grow up.
“I like it when it costs money, but I don’t like it when it doesn’t.”
Chen Feifei pouted and said
“I’ve always liked it, but I liked it even more when you gave me money.”
“You are honest.”
On exam days, there is nothing to do if you go to school too early, but Chen Qiao has become accustomed to going out with her sister.
There is an English test in the afternoon, which lasts for one hour, and we can go home directly after the test.
There are only two classes on normal Friday afternoons, and they start at 1:45 p.m.
This is to make it convenient for some boarding students to go home earlier and not stay too late to cause any accidents.
Because there was only one English teacher for the sixth grade, Wang Yilin was the invigilator in Chen Qiao’s class, while the physical education teacher was invigilator for the class next door.
Wang Yilin put on the Little Bee and began to read the listening questions.
She made the test paper herself, although she found the questions on the Internet and made some slight modifications, such as changing a few wrong options in the multiple-choice questions or asking questions with different words in the same sentence.
As for the English listening part, she couldn’t find the download file and the quality of the recording with the recorder was too poor, so she could only read it herself in the examination room.
However, her pronunciation was not that standard, and she was also one of the reasons why some top students lost points in the listening part.
Wang Yilin was naturally most concerned about how Chen Qiao, the English class representative, performed in the exam, and they also had a small agreement.
Wang Yilin often walked back and forth beside Chen Qiao, which made Lin Na nervous.
Her brain went blank and her performance was a little abnormal, although her normal performance was not much better.
