Chapter 184 Life, Ah, Time
At the same time, she felt a sense of relief.
Suddenly, the math exam paper in front of me seemed incredibly simple.
When she first entered school, she only knew the most basic arithmetic, but now she can answer questions accurately and quickly with almost no thinking.
She picked up her pen and began to focus on answering the questions.
The pen tip glided quickly across the exam paper; her thinking was clear and agile, and she could write down the answers accurately and quickly with almost no need for much thought.
Time passed second by second, and Jiang Songchu was so engrossed in answering the questions that everything around her seemed to disappear.
After the exam, Jiang Songchu walked out of the examination room with a relaxed smile on her face.
Ning An caught up from behind and patted her on the shoulder: "Songchu, how did the exam go?"
Jiang Songchu smiled and said, "Not bad, the questions are simpler than I expected."
Ning An's eyes widened instantly: "Easy? I think it's so hard! Especially the last big question, I have absolutely no idea how to do it."
Jiang Songchu comforted him, "Don't worry, you still have an exam this afternoon, good luck!"
Jiang Songchu performed exceptionally well in the following exams.
Thanks to her tireless efforts in the study room day and night, her performance in other subjects also showed significant improvement, completely different from when she took the first diagnostic test.
She can handle any subject with ease, whether it's math, Chinese, English, or physics.
Read ten thousand books, and your writing will flow like a god's!
Jiang Songchu is now truly experiencing this firsthand.
The two days of final exams passed in the blink of an eye, like a tense dream, leaving only the lingering echo of a racing heart when I woke up.
On Friday morning, an indescribable tension permeated the classroom.
The students either lowered their heads in thought or occasionally looked up at the window.
Everyone was distracted during the morning self-study session, flipping through their books but seemingly not anyone was actually paying attention.
It's clear that his mind wasn't on the books anymore, but rather on anticipating the upcoming exam results.
Jiang Songchu sat in his seat, holding a pen in his hand, the pen tip unconsciously drawing circles on the draft paper.
Her gaze kept drifting towards the classroom door, her heart filled with both anticipation and trepidation.
Ning An sat next to her, holding an English vocabulary book in her hands, muttering to herself, but her eyes were clearly unfocused.
"Songchu, when will the results come out?"
Ning An finally couldn't resist and leaned closer to ask in a low voice.
Jiang Songchu shook her head and replied softly, "I don't know, Teacher Liang should let me know."
Just then, the bell rang for the first class, and the classroom instantly fell silent.
All eyes turned to the classroom door, as if awaiting an important verdict.
Teacher Liang walked into the classroom unhurriedly, holding a stack of documents in her hand, with a faint smile on her face.
She stood on the podium, her gaze sweeping over the entire class, cleared her throat lightly, and began, "It seems you all care a lot about your exam results..."
Before he finished speaking, a low commotion broke out in the classroom.
Some students were very interested, their eyes sparkling with anticipation; others lowered their heads, their faces filled with tension and unease.
Without exception, everyone pricked up their ears, afraid of missing a single word from Teacher Liang.
Teacher Liang smiled and continued, "Because No. 39 Middle School and Experimental Middle School are taking a joint exam, the results will be graded yesterday, and the statistics will be compiled this morning."
"The exam rankings are expected to be announced this afternoon."
Upon hearing this, the classroom erupted in chaos.
The students whispered among themselves, their voices rising and falling in unison.
"They finished approving them so quickly? The teachers are incredibly efficient!"
"Oh no, I think I bombed my math test..."
"Don't panic, maybe everyone did poorly on the test!"
The students were whispering and talking to each other.
Some were discussing possible scores, while others were guessing their ranking in the class.
As Ms. Liang watched this scene, she nodded to herself. The training she had received this semester had indeed made her more mature and better able to control the pace of the class.
She coughed softly, curled her fingers slightly, and tapped the podium twice with her knuckles.
This action seemed to have a magical power; the crisp tapping sound echoed in the classroom, and the students instantly fell silent, all their eyes turning to Teacher Liang.
"Alright, students, quiet down."
Teacher Liang's voice was not loud, but it carried an undeniable authority.
She glanced around the classroom, her tone softening slightly.
"We'll talk about the grades this afternoon."
"In this morning's class, the teacher will discuss with you what you want to do in the future and what kind of person you want to become."
She paused, her gaze filled with tenderness and emotion.
"That's right, this morning was the last class meeting for our Class 3 of Grade 11."
"See you next semester, the classmate sitting next to you might not be your deskmate anymore."
"So today, Teacher Liang would like to talk to everyone about..."
At this point, Teacher Liang turned and walked to the blackboard, picked up a piece of chalk, and slowly wrote two large characters on the blackboard: "Life".
These two words seemed to carry immense weight, plunging the classroom into another brief silence.
The students looked thoughtful, and whispers filled the classroom again, but this time, their discussion was more in-depth and more sincere.
The sound of chalk scraping against the blackboard was particularly clear in the quiet classroom.
Jiang Songchu looked at those two words and a complex emotion suddenly welled up in her heart.
She lowered her head, her fingers unconsciously tracing the tabletop, her thoughts drifting involuntarily into the distance.
Teacher Liang walked to the podium, leaned gently against the edge of the table, glanced at all the students, and slowly began to speak.
"Students, have you ever thought about what you will be like ten years from now? Where will you be? What job will you be doing? What kind of person will you become?"
The classroom fell silent as everyone fell into deep thought.
Jiang Songchu raised her head, her gaze somewhat lost.
She had never seriously considered this question, or rather, she had never dared to imagine her future.
Because her future was already set: in that four-sided palace, she would become a canary that could never escape.
"Actually, life is like a journey, and you are now standing at the starting point."
"The road ahead is long and wide."
"But most importantly, you need to know where you want to go and what kind of person you want to become."
Teacher Liang paused, her gaze falling on Qin Weiwei, and asked softly, "Jiang Songchu, could you share with everyone what you want to do in the future?"
Jiang Songchu was stunned for a moment, then stood up.
Her fingers gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, and her heart began to race.
She took a deep breath and answered in a low voice.
