Chapter 382: Chapter 381: Being with Lu Mian, life is full of surprises, and there’s also…

The crowd exchanged puzzled looks.

At this moment, they actually harbored such thoughts: because she was too outstanding, they wished she would perform a little worse.

“And! And Lu Mian’s results for this final exam weren’t perfect scores in all subjects,” someone reminded.

Previously, Lu Mian had shocked the entire school with full scores in all subjects in the monthly exam. But this time, on the highly anticipated final exam results, she wasn’t as dazzling.

80 points each for Chinese, Mathematics, English, 90 points each for Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and 70 points each for Politics, History, Geography.

Such results were not bad, but not exceptionally good either. Compared to the shock of perfect scores in all subjects, everyone found this round of results more believable.

The atmosphere in the class brightened as the students seemed to find some hope.

“Without a doubt, Lu Mian is excellent. But don’t lose hope, everyone. After all, she’s not a deity. It’s not possible for her to always get full marks, right?”

“Exactly, exactly, this month’s exam is an example. If she was all-knowing, she would definitely have gotten perfect scores again.”

“So, there’s still a chance we can continue being classmates with Lu Mian!”

“How exciting! The top student can lead us again!”

Everyone began searching for clues to prove she wouldn’t leave Class 25 prematurely.

However, in a corner of the classroom, someone spoke with a sense of alarm: “Have you all noticed something familiar about her exam results this time?”

The speaker was the class’s current last-place student, Xu Jiahui, who had been defiant against Lu Mian before but had only recently quieted down.

People looked up at Xu Jiahui.

Xu Jiahui, pointing at the scores beside Lu Mian’s name on the report card, spoke with a trembling voice.

“You may have forgotten, but I remember very clearly. Her finals results…” Xu Jiahui gulped: “are the same as the study plan I saw in her pink notebook!”

At his words, everyone remembered.

Previously, Lu Mian had even beaten up Xu Jiahui over that pink notebook, so it left a deep impression on everyone.

At the time, Xu Jiahui had read the study plan aloud, and no one took it seriously, but now that he mentioned it, they all recalled.

“Not a point more, not a point less!” Xu Jiahui added, still trembling.

The crowd was in shock, and no one uttered another word.

So… Lu Mian’s exam results this time were exactly as she had planned beforehand!

Looking at each other, everyone became even more terrified and anxious.

This was a true controlling scores prodigy!

Bow down! Bow down!

Shouhao and Little Baldy seemed to have realized it too but remained quiet in their dispirited mood.

They knew that it was Sister Yuan’s study plan Lu Mian had set. If Lu Mian hadn’t achieved it during the last monthly exam, she would certainly fulfill it this time.

Instead of showing Lu Mian’s inabilities, this end-of-term performance further confirmed her identity as a master of controlling scores!

Everyone: “…”

With their limited vocabulary, they had only one phrase for it: “Holy shit.”

Soon, Lu Mian returned to the classroom to clean up her desk, stuffing her novels one by one into her backpack. Seizing the chance, Shouhao and Little Baldy turned to ask.

“Mian, can you still get a perfect score in the physics competition this time?”

Lu Mian looked up, “I don’t know about a perfect score, but I must secure the recommendation spot.”

After all, this had been agreed upon with Little Baldy, who had promised he would grant her a condition.

Shouhao and Little Baldy exchanged looks.

Listen to the way she puts it.

“Secure” instead of “strive for.”

Her casual manner carried an air of confidence that was beyond them!

The two felt somewhat disheartened.

But luckily for them, they were quick to forget. By the time school was about to let out, Little Baldy had already perked up.

“Right, Mian, come have dinner at my place tomorrow. My parents said now that it’s winter break, you surely aren’t as busy, and they invited you over for a meal.”

Lu Mian thought about it and wasn’t too keen on meeting that Guo deputy head who always seemed eager to shirk responsibility.

Shouhao added, “Director Qimo said he would go.”

Ah, I see.

“Oh, okay then,” Lu Mian nodded in agreement.

Shouhao nodded with a smile and then texted his own father.

[Dad, Brother Mian has agreed, you go invite Director Qimo.]

Guo Shuitian: [No need, your Director Qimo agreed as soon as he heard Lu Mian was going.]

Shouhao: [Perfect.]

The next day, the first-year section started their winter vacation.

Lu Mian first went to the hospital to see Ye Jinwen and Mo Si.

Both were recovering well, especially Mo Si, who was basically fine now, bouncing around energetically. Ye Jinwen’s left arm still needed some time, but the other injuries were pretty much healed.

Only occasionally would he grumble about looking for the motorcycle girl.

Lu Mian sympathized with him and handed over her own drawing to Director Qimo.

After visiting Ye Jinwen and Mo Si, she and Xiao Qimo went together to Guo Shuitian’s house.

Midway, the two belatedly thought of something.

“Should we bring some gifts over?” Lu Mian turned her head and asked.

“Gifts?” Xiao Qimo also just thought of this.

These kinds of things were generally prepared in advance by subordinates, and he usually didn’t need to worry about them. He hadn’t told Mo Nie or Mo Si this time, and now the two of them realized that showing up empty-handed during the festive season wasn’t very good.

“I’ll drive to the mall and we can choose something now,” Xiao Qimo didn’t hesitate and turned into a large shopping mall when they passed it.

The car parked in the underground garage.

Lu Mian got out of the car, and the man locked the car, both of them walking side by side.

Wandering around a shopping mall was an unfamiliar experience for both Lu Mian and Xiao Qimo.

Lu Mian also didn’t know what to buy for Guo Shuitian’s family, looking at the huge mall with several floors, she pointed in a direction and said, “Director Qimo, why don’t I go browse over there, and you browse over that side? We’ll split up, it’s more efficient.”

She valued efficiency.

Xiao Qimo felt that wasn’t the way to do it.

Not until a couple walked by, hand in hand, nearly glued together like conjoined twins, did he feel that shopping should look like shopping.

“No need,” the man waved his hand, one hand in his pocket, and with a hint, he lifted his arm.

If someone would hook onto him, that would be perfect.

“You see, they all shop together,” the man continued hinting.

Lu Mian looked around, seeing that there were indeed many people, all in pairs; she felt it was a bit of a waste of time.

But in the end, she compromised.

“Alright, let’s move together then.”

Xiao Qimo couldn’t help but laugh and cry: To her, this was ‘moving together’? It sounded like they were executing a task!

However, life is full of surprises.

As he thought this, Lu Mian’s hand had already landed on his arm.

A flicker of surprise crossed Xiao Qimo’s eyes, and his dark gaze fell on her fair fingers, his heart nearly floating away.

It seemed his hint had worked.

Then, the next moment, he found the girl removing his hand from his pocket.

In a leisurely tone, she said, “Arms up, let’s walk faster.”

Xiao Qimo: “…”

With Lu Mian, life was not only full of surprises but also full of crashes!
