Genius Girlfriend

Lin Zhixia claimed that he would catch the thief and be fair to Duan Qiyan, which suddenly gave Duan Qiyan a sense of full body and mind security.

Although Lin Zhixia is the youngest student in the first grade (seventeenth) class, her intelligence surpasses the average level of her peers. She is like an unmoving mountain, majestic and reliable.

Lin Zhixia checked the padlock on the drawer and asked aloud: "Duan Qiyan, when you came to copy the files, was the lock intact?"

"Yes!" Duan Qiyan said firmly, "At 12:37 noon, I squatted in front of this host looking for the USB interface. I looked for it for two minutes before I found the USB interface."

Jin Baihui interjected: "Do you remember the time so accurately?"

Jin Baihui made no secret of her mockery. Several students from other schools were all pointing to Duan Qiyan. Duan Qiyan's head was hot, and he almost ran out of the classroom again. Fortunately, Shen Jixuan pressed his shoulder.

Duan Qiyan endured the effort, and quickly defended himself: "I have a digital watch on my hand! I thought I could find the USB interface in two seconds. I didn't expect me to find it for two minutes..."

Lin Zhixia turned around and faced Jin Baihui: "When did you discover that this lock was broken, and who discovered it?"

"It's me!" said the squad leader of Class 18. "I went to the toilet, and when I came back I saw that the drawer was opened."

Duan Qiyan reiterated: "That was definitely not what I did. At 1:10 noon, I went to the cafeteria and bought a chicken burger and took it back to the classroom to eat. I can't eat the burger while picking the lock."

A boy from a foreign school said suspiciously: "We are all sleeping in the back of the classroom, who knows that Duan Qiyan didn't lie."

Lin Zhixia looked at the boy and asked him, "Have you been sleeping in the back of the classroom?"

The boy said: "Yes."

Lin Zhixia raised her head, staring at him with piercing eyes, inferring: "Assuming that Duan Qiyan did not lie, then, before 1:10 noon today, this iron lock will be good. Because Duan Qiyan's seat is on the side of the wall. Group, the most convenient way for him to go out is through the podium. I suspect that someone will do it after he goes out."

After hearing what Lin Zhixia said, the squad leader of Class 18 was taken aback for a moment, and shouted: "Hello, Teacher Wang!"

Everyone looked at the door, and Teacher Wang, the head teacher of Class 18, had already walked over.

Teacher Wang has an unusually serious expression behind his hands, his eyebrows sinking, and his voice lowered, "You students have rebelled? Who opened the drawer?"

Jiang Yubai answered, "I don't know yet."

Teacher Wang stepped onto the stage.

Jin Baihui reported to him: "Teacher Wang, I saw Duan Qiyan squatting at the desk at noon for several minutes."

Teacher Wang's gaze swept over Duan Qiyan, and Duan Qiyan realized that Teacher Wang regarded him as a suspect. He couldn't argue, his head suddenly became confused, his eyes became dull and panic, and he looked more like a student who did bad things.

Teacher Wang asked him, "Is that you, Duan Qiyan?"

Duan Qiyan's lips trembled, and he shook "Ah".

Teacher Wang simply said: "Duan Qiyan, when Teacher Zhang comes, you can go and admit your mistakes to Teacher Zhang. If you know your mistakes, correct them. You are still a good student in Class 17."

Teacher Wang is a good teacher with a mild temper. If I were to change to another impatient teacher and see Duan Qiyan's appearance of "there is no silver three hundred taels", I'm afraid he would roar on the spot.

The second-year senior said: "How serious is the stealing of papers. Teacher Wang is still not angry. I want to transfer to Teacher Wang's class."

Another senior said: "How can a boy in the first (seventeen) class pick the lock? Isn't this going to kill himself?"

Many students in Class 17 felt dull.

Jiang Yubai pushed Duan Qiyan away with one hand and stepped forward: "Teacher Wang, Duan Qiyan brought a USB flash drive. He used the USB interface to copy the files, and he didn't pick the lock."

Teacher Wang glanced at him: "Okay, you go back to your seat first, class is about to start. This is not a trivial matter, wait until Teacher Zhai and Teacher Zhang arrive."

Every word of Teacher Wang is like a knife, which is inserted straight into Duan Qiyan's heart. Duan Qiyan was suspected by his teacher for the first time in his life. There are many students around him talking about him, saying that he was crazy in the morning and picking the lock at noon. He was really a shameless boy.

Duan Qiyan's eyes were red, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Jin Baihui said a few words with Teacher Wang.

Duan Qiyan was full of anger, with nowhere to vent, and couldn't help cursing: "Jin Baihui, you are an idiot. You can't test Lin Zhixia for a hundred questions. What qualifications do you have to open your eyes and tell lies? If I really pick the lock, Don’t throw the test paper on your head, so that you can take the first grade one time!"

In fact, Duan Qiyan is also a smart boy. He stabbed Jin Baihui's sore spot accurately, and Jin Baihui rolled up his sleeves and rushed towards him without saying a word.

Jin Baihui doesn't even care if she is a girl, Duan Qiyan is a boy. She is resolute and decisive, and fight if she wants to fight! She punched Duan Qiyan's lower back, and Duan Qiyan turned sideways, and shouted: "You are a crazy woman in Class 18. A mouse **** will ruin a pot of porridge!"

There was a mess on the podium.

Teacher Wang was also angry. Teacher Wang clapped the desk and asked severely: "Duan Qiyan, how can you scold someone? You are a student in the provincial No. 1 Middle School competition class! Don't you think you are not ashamed enough?"

"Teacher Wang, I found the real thief." Lin Zhixia's voice suddenly sounded.

The classmates in the lecture hall were almost there, and Teacher Zhai and Teacher Zhang also stood at the door of the classroom.

Lin Zhixia pointed to a boy from a foreign school and analyzed: "There are a total of 20 rows of seats in the amphitheater. This morning, this student was sitting in the third row of the first row. In the afternoon, he changed seats. The second row of the seventeenth column. Why? Because the left side of the podium is near the door of the classroom, and the first row of seats is on the far left of the classroom. When picking the lock, the thief should also pay attention to whether there is anyone outside the classroom door. If there are people, he will subconsciously hide and flee to the right. The right is basically the site of our first grade 17 and 18 classes. Today at noon, most of the first grade students went home for dinner, and the right is safer than the left. So, he simply moved his seat to the seventeenth column... His classmates are not nearby, and there will be monsters if something goes wrong."

The boy from the other school stood up all of a sudden, his face was pale, his eyes were fierce: "You fart!"

His expression was terrible, as if he was about to eat Lin Zhixia.

Jiang Yubai immediately walked to Lin Zhixia and stood still. Lin Zhixia hid behind Jiang Yubai and calmly explained: "I still have several arguments."

The boy's left hand passed through the pocket of his pants, and his classmate called him: "Kang Geng!"

Lin Zhixia immediately answered, "Your name is Kuang Geng? Okay, Kuang Geng, you just told me that you have been sleeping at the back of the classroom at noon. All the students on the podium heard it, and they can testify for me. !"

Shen Jixuan took the lead in responding: "I heard it! I testify!"

Lin Zhixia continued: "Kuang Geng claimed that he slept in the back of the classroom for one noon, but his seat was in the front row. His desk was full of reference books and notebooks, and even the cap of the pen was not closed. This way the nib of the pen is easy to dry..."

Kuang Geng lifted his thigh and hit the edge of the table: "I forgot to buckle the pen cap? Can't it? Break the law? You said that Jin Baihui wronged Duan Qiyan. Are you embarrassed to wrong me?"

A classmate of Class 18 commented: "Lin Zhixia is... encircling Wei and saving Zhao!"

Regardless of what others said, Lin Zhixia was not disturbed. She did not rush and said: "The most important thing is that the iron lock was pried open by the paper clips, and you, classmate Kuang Geng, you brought a box of paper clips. I remember clearly, this morning, you put a box of paper clips At the table, my memory can't be wrong. You are the only one in the class with a paperclip."

Speaking of this, Lin Zhixia and Jiang Yubai exchanged glances.

Jiang Yubai tugged the sleeves of Shen Shixuan and Duan Qiyan, and the three of them went straight to the situation.

Kuang Geng wanted to escape, but it was too late. Jiang Yubai and Duan Qiyan firmly grasped Kuang Geng's wrist from left to right, while Shen Jixuan drew into Kuang Geng's left leg trouser pocket with one hand, and as expected, he took out two paper clips folded into a straight line.

Until then, one of Kuang Geng's classmates said, "Teacher Wang, today at noon... Kuang Geng didn't take a nap. He stood up at all times, walked outside and circled, and then walked back to the classroom."

There were all personal and physical evidences, and Kuang Geng had nothing to say for a while. He squeezed his metacarpal bones into a "creaking" sound, which calmed the discussion around him—all the students nearby felt the terrifying low pressure in Kuang Geng.

Teacher Zhang, the head teacher of Class 17, was full of anger. He was about to speak when the head coach Zhai raised a hand and stopped him abruptly.

Teacher Zhai's tone was calm: "Dear students, please return to your seats first."

All the students returned to their positions one after another. Teacher Zhai walked up to Kuang Geng and told him: "Kuang Geng, do you look up and see the black circle on the ceiling? That is the newly installed surveillance camera in our school this year. Hey, the teacher has long known what happened in the classroom. ..."

A few meters away, Lin Zhixia raised her head, looked to the ceiling, and stared at the black circle. With a very soft voice, she asked secretly: "Is that a surveillance camera?"

Shen Jixuan sat on her right, and Jiang Yubai sat on her left. Lin Zhixia's voice fell behind, and Jiang Yubai and Shen Shixuan also looked up and observed for a moment.

Shen Jixuan said categorically: "My mother said that monitoring will only be installed in the lecture halls of the junior high school this summer."

Shen Jixuan thought to himself: Why did Teacher Zhai lie?

Kuang Geng is not a student of Provincial No. 1 High School after all, nor does he understand the equipment status of the lecture hall. He stupidly believed Teacher Zhai's words, and could only try to confess and be lenient: "I... don't want to take the exam. I only picked it once, and opened the lock as soon as I picked it.

Teacher Zhai asked him to sit down and said in a kind tone: "Normal, you don't want to take exams, it's normal! Don't think I am old, there is a generation gap with you, when I was in school, I didn't want to take exams. Who likes exams? Ah? No one in our class likes exams, right?"

Lin Zhixia did not dare to speak.

Teacher Zhai walked back to the stage and calmly presided over the overall situation: "I understand everyone's feelings and understand very well. I am a teacher, and I also did it from students. I want to tell you that exams are just a small challenge in life. It can help you. Testing your own academic level also allows teachers to test their own teaching quality. An exam can bring a win-win result."

There was silence in the lecture hall. Teacher Zhai coughed and continued: "Today’s exam has been cancelled. It’s not an example. Don’t relax. The tasks of the training camp must be completed. Otherwise, it’s a waste of everyone’s time. Do you understand? ?"

The audience shouted in unison: "Understand!"

Teacher Zhai gave up the podium to Teacher Zhang. Teacher Zhang held up the lesson plan with a face as usual, and then explained the knowledge points of the junior high school competition.

The afternoon passed quickly, and it was five o'clock in the evening in a blink of an eye. The daylight in winter is particularly short. At this time, the sky closes in twilight, and the setting sun collects the last glimmer of light. All the students carried their schoolbags and walked out of the classroom.

Teacher Zhai stood at the door and called Lin Zhixia, Jiang Yubai, Shen Shixuan, Duan Qiyan, and Jin Baihui to call the office.

Lin Zhixia asked in surprise: "Teacher Zhai, am I going to the office too?"

"Yes, you are all going." Teacher Zhai replied.

Lin Zhixia grabbed Jiang Yubai's schoolbag strap. Jiang Yubai said to her in a low voice, "It's okay, don't be afraid."

"I'm not afraid," Lin Zhixia said to herself, "I just can't figure out why we were called to the office, but Geng can go home directly."

Teacher Zhai opened the door of the office and invited five students to sit down. His office is very tidy, and there is half-warm tea in the enamel cup on the table.

Teacher Zhai picked up the cup and sighed: "I don't punish that situation. There are two reasons. First, he is not a student of our school. I can't control him. Second, when I found him picking the lock, I I gave up on him. I didn’t expect him. Can you understand? Starting next week, we will teach in small classes. Small classes are divided into fast and slow classes. Geng will be assigned to the most basic slow class. The new teacher who just graduated will take him. He doesn't have to come to class."

Jin Baihui said without fluctuation: "It just so happens that he doesn't want to take the exam, he is not worthy of studying in the fast class."

Teacher Zhai waved her hand at her: "Jin Baihui, I heard Teacher Wang say that you have wronged Duan Qiyan. This is not good, this is really not good, you are our most concerned student, do you understand? Jin Baihui, you Keep your mind level and steady..."

Jin Baihui's head shifted, and she glanced at Lin Zhixia: "Lin Zhixia didn't calm her mind. She took a group of people and pointed out the situation."

"Yes," Teacher Zhai tapped on the table with his fingertips, "This is a point I want to emphasize, Lin Zhixia, listen to the teacher tell you..."

Teacher Zhai’s tone became extremely gentle and kind: “Lin Zhixia, learning and competition are your main tasks. Don’t pay attention to others. If you encounter anything in school, come directly to me and your head teacher. Teacher Zhang. You are all too young. How courageous are you today? I dare to openly pick the lock at school. With so many students in the classroom, he may be spotted at any time, and he dared to pick the lock. What is the psychological quality?"

Lin Zhixia was confused: "So what?"

Teacher Zhai held the teacup in both hands and explained patiently: "Lin Zhixia, you are very logical, and the teacher is very pleased to be able to pull him out. However, if we don't touch this kind of trouble, we won't touch it. The competition is you. Main task."

Lin Zhixia thought for a while and replied: "I understand, teacher, you are afraid that he will hate me and will cause me trouble. He is mentally unhealthy, and I can see it. He squeezed the bones of his fingers crunching. , It rang for a long time. Isn't that a little painful? But he doesn't feel the pain."

Teacher Zhai sighed: "Yes, just like Teacher Zhang and the others said, Lin Zhixia is really smart. But don't worry, I will calm him down, and you will be divided into classes immediately. You can't see him."

Duan Qiyan frowned and suddenly said, "I'll protect Lin Zhixia."

Jiang Yubai was stunned.

Teacher Zhai was also a little stunned: "Huh?"

Jiang Yubai took a half step forward. He turned sideways and looked straight at Duan Qiyan. He understood that Lin Zhixia upheld justice for Duan Qiyan and washed away his grievances. Duan Qiyan's attitude towards Lin Zhixia might take a 180-degree turn.

Jiang Yubai's thinking is very correct. In fact, in front of Teacher Zhai, Duan Qiyan said without evasiveness: "Teacher Zhai, I am a student of Class 17, and I have been wronged. Lin Zhixia will help me. She is the monitor of Class 17. Teacher Zhai, don't scold her, she just did her duty as the monitor. If you want to scold, just scold me."

Teacher Zhai replied, "Have I criticized her? Am I just telling you the facts and making sense?"

Lin Zhixia understood Teacher Zhai's kindness. Frankly speaking, the attitude of the teachers in the competition class towards Lin Zhixia is as warm as spring. She is taken care of in school, and the teacher regards her as a rising star, hoping that she can win glory for the junior high school of the Provincial No. 1 Middle School.

Lin Zhixia said roundly, "Thank you Teacher Zhai, I will pay attention to it in the future."

Seeing her so smart and sensible, Teacher Zhai couldn’t help but nodded: “Okay, the teacher wants to tell you that the five of you are all good seedlings in our competition class. If you have anything to do, you don’t have to solve it yourself. The teacher is you. Strong backing. Okay, you go home first, and be safe on the way."

The five students responded in unison.

The sky was dark and the moonlight was faint. Lin Zhixia and her classmates walked out of the campus together and parted ways at the school gate.

Jin Baihui only said "goodbye" to Lin Zhixia. She walked towards the bus stop sign without looking back, without friends or company. It seems that if she talks to others, she will waste precious time.

Shen Jixuan looked at Jin Baihui's back and shrugged his shoulders. He stood on the side of the road, opened the door of an S-Class Mercedes-Benz car, took the seat of the co-pilot, and shouted outside: "Lin Zhixia! My father drove to pick me up, otherwise, we will take you back by the way. Home?"

Lin Zhixia said hurriedly: "No, I will go home by myself, see you tomorrow!"

Shen Jixuan waved his hand, the Mercedes-Benz car started the engine and gradually drove into the dim night.

A light snow fell in the sky, and the snowflakes flew like fluffy feathers, and they were not visible when they landed.

As the snowy road was slippery, Duan Qiyan pushed a bicycle and slowly passed in front of Lin Zhixia. He seemed to say something to Lin Zhixia, but Jiang Yubai kept staring at him. Jiang Yubai's sight was like thousands of bright lights, illuminating him with nowhere to hide, unable to express his inner gratitude. No matter how thick-skinned he is, he can't say in front of Jiang Yubai: Lin Zhixia, thank you, you are a good person.

If Duan Qiyan uttered what was in his heart, Jiang Yubai would sneer while taunting him. Duan Qiyan could only give up his original plan and said vaguely: "Lin Zhixia, you are a good squad leader."

Lin Zhixia nodded: "Please call me Squad Leader Lin."

Duan Qiyan stepped on his long legs and stepped onto the bicycle seat: "Okay, Squad Leader Lin!" After he finished speaking, he pushed **** the soles of his shoes, like an arrow from the string, and quickly slid to the non-motorized lane. , Not afraid of falling down on the road.

These students all left one after another. Jiang Yubai also walked to a car in his house. He pondered for a moment before he said, "Lin Zhixia, I'll take you home. It's dark. We can discuss geometric algebra problems in the car."

The street lamp shed warm orange light, the snow scene in the night was slightly bright, and Jiang Yubai was surrounded by only his own shadow. He turned around and found that Lin Zhixia had already crossed the road alone. She stood at the bus stop sign opposite, and waved at Jiang Yubai.

"See you tomorrow!" she said happily.

She smiled very sweetly. When she had just bid farewell to the other three classmates, she did not show such a bright smile. Compared to Duan Qiyan, Jin Baihui, Shen Shixuan... She looks forward to meeting Jiang Yubai tomorrow.

Jiang Yubai also smiled back: "See you tomorrow."

For Lin Zhixia, the winter training camp is a very happy day. Every Monday to Friday, she can see her classmates, and on Saturday and Sunday, she can go to the university library to enrich herself. Sister Zhu Chan treats her very well, or, to be more precise, all the Ph.D. sisters she knows are very good to her, although the kind of "goodness" is more like treating her as a young child rather than her The most desired complete and equal information exchange.

As long as Lin Zhixia is present, adults will pay attention to their words, and the atmosphere of the office will become solemn and quiet. Some faculty doctors mistakenly regarded Lin Zhixia as Professor Shen's granddaughter, and everyone got along more politely. Lin Zhixia understood that this was mainly because she was too young.

She confided to Jiang Yubai: "The world is complex and changeable. Will adults use a set of fixed standards to evaluate another person? Jiang Yubai, have you thought about this issue?"

She secretly asked Jiang Yubai in a small class.

Jiang Yubai looked at the blackboard and said in a low voice, "I'll talk about it after class."

Lin Zhixia nodded frequently and shut up obediently.

After the exams in the first week of the winter vacation camp, Mr. Zhai divided the fast and slow classes according to the test scores. Lin Zhixia still maintained the level of first place, her total score even surpassed the second-year seniors and seniors. She, Jiang Yubai, Shen Shixuan, Jin Baihui, and Duan Qiyan are all key objects of protection for the first grade competition class. Teacher Zhai opened the class personally and served as their head coach.

Teacher Zhai has very rich teaching experience. He is not only good at teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, but also very good at adjusting students' mental state. He talked to Jin Baihui for a few words after class, so that Jin Baihui would no longer be bitter and hateful. Jin Baihui's expression stretched a bit when she was writing questions every day.

Teacher Zhai's course content is refined, high-quality, and well-organized. Jiang Yubai never distracted in his class, or even chatted with Lin Zhixia. Only when the bell rings before Jiang Yubai would leave the world of mathematics and talk to Lin Zhixia about topics that interest her.

Lin Zhixia held her face in her hands and said happily: "Jiang Yubai, you are so serious in class, maybe we can skip another grade soon!"

Jiang Yubai has no plans to skip the grade for the time being. His daily schedule is fully arranged. He was lying in bed at 8:30 every night and fell asleep in less than a minute. If he skips another grade, he may have to go to bed after half past eight. Lack of sleep during the growth period, his height may not reach 1.88 meters as an adult.

This will never work.

Jiang Yubai values ​​his height very much.

So he said: "Because I... don't understand, so I take the class seriously."

To admit that he didn't understand in person, this was already a great challenge for Jiang Yubai.

Lin Zhixia comforted him patiently: “It’s okay, everyone has knowledge that they don’t understand. We live in this world originally for information. Your eyes, nose, ears and all tactile senses are all Is your source of information input."

Jiang Yubai asked her: "Can you still enter information in class?"

"Yes," Lin Zhixia replied, "Judging by the standards of junior high school math competitions, Teacher Zhai's questions are difficult. I can make those questions continue to deform, such as a circle. I think of a ring and then Riemann space."

The words "Riemann space" sound a lot like advanced mathematics. Jiang Yubai doesn't know much about this field. In his notebook, there are only geometry problems for junior high school competitions. He closed the notebook silently. After a while, he asked, "What do the doctoral students you know do every day?"

"They all have their own thinking," Lin Zhixia described, "They have to read papers, do experiments, and find innovative points...because all I know are doctoral students in the Department of Basic Mathematics, Physics and Computer Science. I think their The daily work is relatively lonely, and it may not be as lively as you think."

Jiang Yubai paused with his fingertips and turned his pen. Indeed, in his imagination, when the Ph.Ds were studying in school, they would meet every day to discuss academic issues. The days were very lively, like a hundred Lin Zhixia gathered from morning till night.

But Lin Zhixia said to Jiang Yubai: "Scholars have chosen a certain direction and always have their own thinking. Thinking itself mostly means quiet and loneliness. When you have the results of thinking, you can communicate with others. "

Jiang Yubai turned his head to look at her: "Is that the way you want to go?"

"Yes," Lin Zhixia replied, "Professor Shen and I crossed the hook."

On the day Lin Zhixia and Professor Shen pulled the go, Jiang Yubai was also there. He was deeply impressed by Professor Shen and longing for scientific research.

Lin Zhixia seemed to have guessed his thoughts, and she asked him again: "Jiang Yubai, do you want to do scientific research too?"

"Doing scientific research" may require Lin Zhixia's innate conditions-thinking of this, Jiang Yubai decided to give up as soon as possible. He didn't feel afraid of difficulties, he just understood the truth of "willing to be worthy". Dad said that a mature man cannot take care of everything.

After careful consideration, Jiang Yubai told Lin Zhixia briefly: "I don't really want to."

He thought that Lin Zhixia would persuade him to think twice, to persuade him to love science and devote himself to scientific research. However, Lin Zhixia's reaction was beyond his expectations. Lin Zhixia whispered: "Everyone has their own choice and direction. This is the beauty of the world..."

Jiang Yubai interrupted: "I can't study science with you in the future..."

"You are different from me, so you are Jiang Yubai and I am Lin Zhixia," Lin Zhixia looked at him and said more seriously, "You are the only Jiang Yubai."

That's right.

He is the unique Jiang Yubai.

Lin Zhixia is just explaining the facts.

The tips of Jiang Yubai's ears are slightly hot and may be a little red. He didn't want his classmates to find out.

Fortunately, Jiang Yubai's winter coat has a hat. He made a decisive move, grabbing his hat with one hand and covering his head. He was sitting against the wall, his back was straight and upright, and his handwriting was neat and full of energy. Teacher Zhai passed in front of him and asked him: "Jiang Yubai, why are you wearing a hat in the classroom? You are so cold. Huh? I increase the temperature of the air conditioner a little bit?"

"No, thank you," Jiang Yubai replied, "I am taking notes intently."

The winter vacation lasts for a month. Except for the three-day Spring Festival holiday and double breaks on weekends, most of the students in the competition class are participating in training camps at other times. Jiang Yubai sets high standards and strict demands on himself. After a intensive training in the winter vacation, he successfully stood out in the competition of small class teaching. Teacher Zhai spoke highly of Jiang Yubai.

After the training camp, Ms. Zhai wrote a comment for every student in the class. Teacher Zhai left Jiang Yubai’s comment: Jiang Yubai is hardworking, agile and studious. The teacher thinks that you will definitely get a good place in the competition. There is only one problem. You often wear a hat after class. If you have a cold, please report in time. Learning is not the first, but health is the first.

Jiang Yubai can appreciate the teacher's concern and care. Embarrassed in his heart, he collected the comments and transcripts calmly.

That night, Jiang Yubai returned home as usual. While he was packing his schoolbag in the bedroom, his uncle suddenly broke into his room and asked him: "Xiao Jiang, your uncle, during the two months I went to perform in the southern hemisphere, do you miss uncle very much?"

Jiang Yubai looked at him quietly, but said, "No."

Uncle made a heart-warming gesture: "Really? Uncle doesn't believe it."

Jiang Yubai explained: "I have been making up for a month and I am very busy."

In December last year, my uncle went to Australia and New Zealand with the orchestra.

It was a sunny summer in the southern hemisphere, and my uncle's complexion seemed to be tanned a little, and my uncle didn't care. He even took off his gloves, revealing a pair of flawless hands, showing male power from bones to tendons. And he claimed: "Australian performances tired me out. It's better to play the piano. You don't have to carry the piano by yourself... Xiao Jiang, I heard your dad say that you didn't go anywhere during the winter vacation and you were crazy to make up lessons, right? Your diligence is too much like me. Your uncle practiced the piano every day when I was ten years old, and your father was scared by my diligence..."

Before the uncle was finished, Jiang Yubai's father also came.

Jiang Yubai shouted: "Dad."

The uncle immediately turned his head and shouted, "Big Brother."

Dad walked up to Jiang Yubai and sat on a soft chair. He noticed Jiang Yubai's transcript on the table. But he never took the initiative to reach out to get Jiang Yubai's things, he only glanced at it, and Jiang Yubai hid the report card in his school bag.

Dad smiled and asked him in a low voice, "I didn't do well in the exam?"

Jiang Yubai hesitated for a moment, then handed the transcript to his uncle. Uncle opened the report card, like a loudspeaker, and broadcasted a report on the spot: "Jiang Yubai, the first (seventeen) class of junior high school, the total score of the winter vacation camp mathematics, A+, the overall ranking, the top five percent of the grade."

"Very good," said Dad, "you have passed the test."

Uncle echoed: "Yes, our family is at this level."

Dad put his left hand on the armrest of the soft chair. He wore a mechanical watch with a sapphire mirror on his wrist, showing that the current time was 7:30 in the evening, and his father reminded: "In another hour, you have to go to bed."

Jiang Yubai nodded: "Yeah."

Dad leaned over slightly and asked gently: "You have nothing else, do you want to tell me?"

The uncle sat cross-legged on the ground. The floor was covered with a soft and neat carpet. Uncle straightened his waist and suggested: "Xiao Jiang, you have to speak up."

Jiang Yubai said frankly: "I want to participate in provincial competitions, national leagues, and international Olympic competitions."

Dad nodded: "Very well, ambitious."

Jiang Yubai stood up from his seat. He let go of his schoolbag, and then declared: "I didn't participate in the competition for a spot, but for the first prize. In team competitions, my teammates are very strong. In individual competitions, I can't hold back."

Dad and him looked at each other: "You have been studying for the whole winter vacation, and you have hardly had it easy. Your mother and I are a little worried, but it doesn't matter. You have a firm goal. I am happy to see your progress."

Dad stretched out his hand to Jiang Yubai, and Jiang Yubai shook his father's hand—this was a way his father encouraged him. Since childhood, as long as he encountered difficulties and revealed a hint to his father, his father would shake hands with him and bless him like this: "Come on, son."

The uncle also put his hand over. But my dad said: "Your hands have been insured for tens of millions of dollars, but forget it. Don't shake hands with Jiang Yubai."

The uncle was shocked: "What does tens of millions of dollars mean to you? A small number."

Dad slowly said: "This is not a small number, but a large number. In front of the children, adults should treat money as money. Jiang Yubai will go to the investment market in the future and he should pay more attention to risk control."

Jiang Yubai replied: "Yes, I agree with Dad."

Uncle never carried a bar with Dad. He quickly compromised and said: "Indeed, you are right. This is our family's way of thinking, and I agree with it." Then, he asked: "Jiang Yubai, when will your game start?"

Jiang Yubai said truthfully: "The league starts in April. There are two other competitions, the preliminary in March and the final in April. The team competition is an international competition. If I do well in these few tests, I will team up with my classmates and participate. International competition."

"Which classmate?" Uncle keenly noticed, "Is it Lin Zhixia?"

Dad caught the point immediately: "Lin Zhixia?"

Jiang Yubai hasn't answered yet, but his uncle Zhidu can't say anything without saying: "Brother, let me tell you, there is a classmate in Jiang Yubai's class named Lin Zhixia. Lin Zhixia and Jiang Yubai were originally in the experimental elementary school together. In the fourth grade, the two of them went to Shen Zhaohua’s laboratory and both decided to skip grades, so they jumped to the junior high school competition class of Provincial No. 1 Middle School. Brother, you may have to ask, Lin Zhixia is just a ten-year-old Girl, how can she skip grades with our Xiao Jiang? Is it possible that she also has a group of math and English tutors at home?"

Jiang Yubai interrupted: "There is nothing to talk about."

But my father said: "I don't often have the opportunity to get to know your classmates. It's good to listen to your uncle."

The uncle added fluently: "Lin Zhixia has no tutor. Her skills are all natural. In the laboratory building of the physics department, she bluffed a group of doctoral students of Shen Zhaohua, and I was also bluffed. . It’s the first time I met such a young girl, who likes physics and mathematics so much, and can understand those complicated concepts. Her foreign language skills are also good, she can speak German and English at least. Brother, you know, mine The German level is quite good. I personally checked Lin Zhixia’s German. Lin Zhixia and the Germans should be able to communicate in German daily. Jiang Yubai told me that Lin Zhixia’s IQ is almost 174...174. Brother, think about it. Although we Xiaojiang are smart, we are not as good as the little girl with an IQ of 174. Xiao Jiang can learn a lot by making friends with classmates with an IQ of 174."

Uncle's words are very oriented, but father is not influenced by his uncle. After the father heard this, he immediately looked at his son: "Jiang Yubai, you want to skip a grade because you want to follow in the footsteps of this classmate?"

Jiang Yubai denied: "No."

Dad did not refute. Dad just looked at him, waiting for him to explain his reasons.

Jiang Yubai replied after careful consideration: "I made the decision to skip a grade first. Lin Zhixia followed me to skip a grade. I and her... get along pretty well, we are friends, and we often talk about math problems."

The word "discussion" is not used accurately.
