If I don't have money to go to college, I can only go to slay the dragon.

Hearing Chen Wenwen's approval, Lu Mingfei was startled for a moment, and then he couldn't help but feel a touch of surprise in his heart. However, his joy was suppressed by his reason. He warned himself not to get carried away, coughed twice and said, "I haven't had much contact with Lin Nian recently. He seems to have a lot of things going on at the university in the United States. He goes around sketching and collecting stories. Su Xiaoqiang probably wants to ask about the school he went to? She also wants to go abroad. Studying abroad?”

"Not only Xiaoqiang, but also many students in the class have this idea after Lin Nian's example." Chen Wenwen said.

"What about you?" Lu Mingfei was stunned and asked, "Are you going abroad too?"

"I don't know." Chen Wenwen shook her head and looked at Lu Mingfei and said, "It's you. I heard that you took the TOEFL test with Zhao Menghua before. Are you the one who is planning to study abroad?"

"I" Lu Mingfei couldn't help but want to scratch his head again. He didn't have the nerve to say that studying abroad was actually the plan of his aunt and uncle. His somewhat embarrassing test results would only be three if he took the college entrance examination on the right track. Luck If he is worse, he may have to settle for a junior college. He is not good at studying. It is a pity that there is no e-sports option in the art exam. Otherwise, he might be able to get a higher score by relying on StarCraft and enroll in an undergraduate college. But which undergraduate these days? Is there an eSports department in the college?

Therefore, instead of losing face in the college entrance examination, it is better to just rely on the TOEFL scores to try and study abroad. In interviews, it is easier to test courage and confidence than to test real materials. Although someone in another road does not have much ability, In terms of being thick-skinned, he is still one of the best among his peers.

"Actually, it's good to study abroad. You and Lin Nian have always had a good relationship, right? If you go to the United States, you two can keep in touch. I heard that you can surf and have sailing competitions on the beach of Lake Michigan." Chen Wenwen chuckled. explain.

"I may not go to Chicago. It depends on which school wants me!" Lu Mingfei sighed. The most foreign emails he received now were rejection letters. The opening line was "Thank you for your interest in our college." , but it’s a pity that you failed to meet the admission standards of our college. Saying that you want to study abroad is just an excuse for yourself to be temporarily lazy. Maybe one day there will be no more letters from abroad, and he will have to go back to his original shape and start running again. I worked hard to take the college entrance examination.

"If you don't go abroad, you still have a chance to take the college entrance examination. I have seen your transcript. As long as you work hard, you can find many good schools in China." Chen Wenwen seemed to notice Lu Mingfei's frustration and comforted her, "In Have you decided what to fill in for your domestic school application?"

"This." Lu Mingfei glanced at Chen Wenwen from the corner of his eye, "Let me see what the situation is."

"It depends on the situation?" Chen Wenwen thought for a while and said, "Are you saying that you will wait until the results of the next mock test come out before making a choice?"

"Absolutely." Lu Mingfei scratched his cheek with his index finger, "What about you?"

"I" Chen Wenwen paused, "I'll see what happens, right? I'm in the classroom."

Lu Mingfei looked at the girl's back as she walked into the classroom, and suddenly frowned - this was not the first time he tried to trick the other party, but unfortunately he failed. Chen Wenwen did not go on stage to talk like the others. She was shouting at the top of her lungs, so no one knew where this girl was going to apply. However, it seemed that she had heard rumors that she was going to be admitted to Peking University or Xiamen University.

I followed Chen Wenwen into the classroom. The classroom was noisy. There were cats reading seriously in the pile of books, and there were also three or two people sitting together and chatting. Their class was not considered a Hongzhi class or a Rocket class. Although the learning atmosphere was good, it was not It was so good that many people greeted Chen Wenwen as soon as she walked in. Others were not surprised that Lu Mingfei followed the girl.

After all, Lu Mingfei is officially the director of the Literary Society, and is more or less a class cadre. It is understandable that he usually runs errands with the president. Otherwise, he is just a coolie serving tea and water. This is why The head of the film department in my grade fell in love with the role of Lu Mingfei at a glance when he was filming a micro-movie. The way he looked in front of him and behind the horse was even more like a boy than a boy.

There is still some time before class starts. After entering the classroom, Chen Wenwen starts to complete the tasks given by the class teacher from the row next to the window. She investigates the volunteers one by one and sees that the president of the literary club is considerate of the people. Oh no, he cares for his classmates. Some people who had not yet been asked took the initiative to come over. They stood or sat in groups around the table and talked about their future plans.

"Am I going to go to Ocean University? I heard that the scenery there is very good, or maybe Yantai University. I'm used to living in coastal cities, but it's a bit uncomfortable to suddenly move inland. Moreover, the degree of development is also different. There are many opportunities along the coast. Maybe you can find a good job before you graduate."

"I'm going to Wuhan University. I heard that you can see cherry blossoms there in spring. The faculty is one thing, but the university environment is more important. After all, it is the most important period in life. If you have a girlfriend in university, A date under the cherry blossom tree is better than a date under the banyan tree. Xu Miaomiao, what do you two think about it? Should you go your own way or be together?"

Xu Miaomiao, who was asked, was chewing a piece of lunch bread. Xu Yanyan went to the toilet and was not in the classroom. He shrugged and said, "Our grades are all about the same. The idea at home is that it is best to fill in the same application. If we are in the same university, we will get the same results." We are all taken care of, and we have been together from kindergarten to high school. It is quite uncomfortable to be suddenly separated in college."

...It is quite a real voluntary demand. There is not much thinking about future employment and long-term development. The impression and choice of university are only superficial needs, but the choices of most high school students nowadays are generally like this.

"Who can adapt? The sprouts of growth always appear between reunion and separation." A hand was placed on Xu Miaomiao's shoulder. Xu Miaomiao looked back and called "Boss", So the same calls came one after another among the boys.

Zhao Menghua just walked in from outside the classroom. When he saw a circle of people here, he subconsciously walked over and interrupted. Chen Wenwen looked at Zhao Menghua behind Xu Miaomiao and smiled slightly and nodded. The other party also nodded and looked back. Seeing the mute Lu Mingfei behind the girl, he also nodded slightly.

"It's one thing to fill in your application form, and another thing to get your college entrance examination results. Not everyone has the confidence to apply for Tsinghua University as their first, second, and third choice. Next time the results of the three-mode model come out, everyone will think about it again. It's a question of volunteering, but it's a good thing to have a goal now, but it's better not to be too obsessed with the goal. If it doesn't suit us, we can just change it. Don't be too stubborn." Zhao Menghua deserved to be called "boss" by the boys. It was indeed convincing and he nodded in affirmation. After saying that, he looked at Chen Wenwen again, "But which school is our president going to take the exam to?"

"What about you? I heard before that you are planning to go abroad?" Chen Wenwen asked.

"It should be easy for me to go abroad if I am the eldest brother. After all, my family has a big business and my English is as good as if I was born and raised in the United States."

"I'm a purebred Chinese, and my English is a matter of tutoring. If you talk to a foreigner in English for half a day every day, your English will be good." Zhao Menghua sighed, "My TOEFL score is not bad, but if you want to go abroad, you still need to Considering all aspects, my family’s opinion is that it is best to take the exam at home, and it is best to go to BJ.”

"Why do you have to go to BJ?" Xu Miaomiao asked curiously.

"My family's company is planning to develop in the next few years. My mother said that if we are close, we can take better care of me. Hey, my parents are always worried about what will happen to me outside."

"But speaking of BJ, I think the boss wants to get into Peking University, right? Damn, the score requirements are not low."

"Zhao Menghua, do you want to get admitted to Peking University?" Chen Wenwen was also startled for a moment and looked at Zhao Menghua.

"Are you not sure? But my family has hired several private tutors who graduated from Peking University. They say there is a way for me to reach the passing mark in the last two months. Whether I can be admitted or not is up to God. After all, admission to such a university is difficult. You can't get in just by passing the line. You have to screen from top to bottom. After recording, the people behind will be rejected." Zhao Menghua said with a wry smile. Chen Wenwen paused and lowered her head. She didn't know what she was thinking. Suddenly, who He didn't speak anymore, and the atmosphere became weird. Lu Mingfei, who noticed something was wrong, raised his head and looked left and right, feeling a little confused.

At this time, a brother on the side immediately started making jokes, "Did I notice that my family's company is going to develop into BJ? Damn, that's cool, boss, when will the company go public?"

"It's my dad's company, not mine. I still have to find a job after I graduate. Besides, it's still early for the company to go public. I went there two or three years later."

"It will go on the market in two or three years. Is this still early? I am a pure second-generation rich person just in college. I admire it."

"Stop talking about these things." Zhao Menghua smiled, shook his head and waved his hands.

"There are still only a small number of people who go abroad. Not everyone is willing to go to a place where they are unfamiliar with their life and have a happy education. The moon abroad may not be so round." Someone said, "It seems that only three of our current generation gave up the college entrance examination and went abroad directly. Those from Class 6 and Class 6, and Lin Nian from our class, right?"

"I heard that Su Xiaoqiang is also preparing to study abroad. I don't know if it's true or not, but I think it's probably true." A female classmate who passed by and overheard the topic said casually.

"You may be just talking about other people wanting to go abroad. It's a three-minute buzz, but if it's Su Xiaoqiang, it's probably true. As for why... Hi, I understand. And her family is prospering recently, and she wants to study abroad. Don't make it too simple. Spending money can turn foreign school authorities into grandsons." Xu Miaomiao said with a wry smile.

"If you're curious, why don't you just ask? He's in the class." The brother who was a bitch raised his head and looked towards the front of the classroom near the door and shouted, "Su Xiaoqiang, are you going abroad to pursue your husband?"

What answered him was a hard-cover book that flew over and hit him in the head. Then a beautiful figure rose from the ground and flew over. Like a donkey, it chased the bastard who was not afraid of death out of the discussion group and rushed out of the classroom. Gone away from the dust

"It's not unusual to go abroad. It's unusual to do well abroad. Things like this vary from person to person. It depends on whether you have the ability." A brother watched the hero leave and said.

"This sentence is true. Take Lin Nian as an example. Even if he doesn't go abroad and takes the college entrance examination at home, he probably has a chance to compete for the top spot in this year's college entrance examination, right? After all, his achievements are obvious to all in our class." Zhao Menghua is very natural. said.

The brother who first mentioned Lin Nian smiled bitterly and said, "I have something to say. That boy is really a bit of a human being. Before he left, he memorized a text once. When he was reading early, I saw him flipping through the book. I asked him if he had not Memorize it. After he flipped through the text twice, he looked up and said to me: I didn’t memorize it just now, but now I have memorized it. What’s the matter? The most important thing is that this guy really wasn’t kidding. What else can I say?”

"Excellent people will shine wherever they are. In terms of memory alone, there is no one better than him in the whole school, right?" Chen Wenwen also nodded and said sincerely, at least when it comes to studying, many people in the class who are really studying are very impressed by Lin Nian. There are many positive views.

"Speaking of Lu Mingfei, you and Lin Nian have been together for such a long time. We often play games together, stay up all night, and even climb over the wall to study in the evening. Lin Nian is now free and comfortable abroad. Why does his crotch stretch out as soon as he comes to you?" someone laughed. He looked at Lu Mingfei and asked.

"It's pointless if you insist on comparing me with Lin Nian." Lu Mingfei could only roll his eyes at this. To him, this was not considered a joke, at most it was a harmless ridicule.

"But, you said, Lin Nian has such a strong memory and learning ability, has he started eating 'bread' a long time ago?" Someone said suddenly and abruptly.

As soon as these words were spoken, the students gathered around were stunned for a moment, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Lu Mingfei, who was next to Chen Wenwen and was about to wander away from the topic, subconsciously looked up and saw the different expressions on their faces and spoke. Said, "What did you just say? What about Lin Nian, the bread maker?"

"You don't know?" The speaker looked at Lu Mingfei with surprise. When he saw Lu Mingfei shaking his head, he was about to say something. Then he looked at Zhao Menghua who was standing aside and showed signs of shaking his head slightly. He immediately swallowed the words and changed his words. , "I can only say that everyone who understands understands, and those who don't understand won't understand even if they tell me."

"But there was no such thing before Lin Nian left, right?" A boy who understood the meaning of the previous words said, "This stuff has become popular in recent times. No one knew about it last year. .”

"I heard that they were brought over from Japan and the United States? They didn't go through customs and were made illegally, so they're extremely expensive."

"Anyway, I've only heard of it, never seen it."

"Isn't it over? Now I just hear about it. How could it be possible for Lin Nian to have it at that time? His family was not very prosperous at that time. Where did he get the spare money to buy such things?"

"What are you talking about?" Lu Mingfei became more and more confused as he listened. Not only him, but Chen Wenwen next to him also had a blank look in his eyes, as if everyone suddenly jumped to another channel, leaving him and Lu Mingfei with blank faces. Encircled.

"There have been rumors recently that there is a medicine that can make college entrance examination candidates smarter. It is very expensive." Zhao Menghua saw Chen Wenwen cast a doubtful look, hesitated for a moment, and then explained to her, "Come on. It seems illegal, so there is no official name for the drug. It is temporarily called "Bread". The name comes from the fact that people who have taken that drug said that their memory and learning ability will be improved to several times their usual level in a short period of time. The effect is It's so magical that it's like the 'Memory Bread' in Doraemon, that's why that medicine has the name 'Bread'."

"Doraemon is not bad." Lu Mingfei felt that some of the things these people usually talked about touched upon his knowledge blind spots.

"Smart medicine?" Chen Wenwen asked tentatively, as if she understood.

"Absolutely?" Zhao Menghua nodded.

"Smart medicine. My aunt wanted to buy it for my cousin before, but my uncle stopped her, saying that eating too much would damage the brain." Lu Mingfei also realized that this thing is not unusual. Every time he takes the college entrance examination There will always be someone to talk about.

"It's not ordinary smart drugs. Normally smart people talk about short-term stimulants like Ritalin and Modafinil. I heard that things like 'bread' can take effect for a long time, and they are definitely not stimulants." You can't even detect the drug test in the examination room after eating such items." The brother next to Zhao Menghua said, "Not only the liberal arts candidates, but also some sports students are spreading this rumor, and they are still trying every possible means to find channels. But it’s rare to hear that anyone around us has gotten a sample product.”

"Mostly it's a money scam, right? There are a lot of people making such shady money just before the college entrance examination. Don't let scams like smart drugs happen too much," Xu Miaomiao said.

"Who knows?" the brother said, "One is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. And I heard that even if you have money, you can't buy it. Many parents are looking for channels everywhere, but when others hear that it is an adult who is asking, they are afraid. I refused, because I was afraid it was a 'hook', and the items were only sold to real high school students. You had to show your student ID online before meeting in person, and the transaction location was also very strange, as if you were selling goods. You know what I mean? .”

"What is a hook?" someone wondered.

"Police fishing." Zhao Menghua said casually, "Don't even think about this thing. It's probably a scam. If you eat it, you can go to Tsinghua University and Peking University. Where can there be such a good thing? I'd rather just study for it in Sanmo." Good results. I heard that the questions in the third model are all based on the real questions of the college entrance examination in the past. If you can pass the college entrance examination this time, you will almost have the same level."

The topic basically ended here. Several people saw that Zhao Menghua didn't want to talk much anymore, so they took the initiative to disperse. Lu Mingfei stood there and looked at Chen Wenwen beside him, scratched his cheek and said, "Shall we continue?"

"Let's continue." Chen Wenwen looked back at Zhao Menghua who was walking away. When she came back, her expression was still as calm as usual, she nodded and walked to another row of desks.

Lu Mingfei followed behind, but it was quite outrageous that his mind was filled with what happened just now. But to say that Lin Nian has a good memory after taking medicine, there must be something wrong with his head. It is not necessarily that this guy has to take it even if he plays a game. Will the medicine come to my back? He had seen Lin Nian play Dark Souls, read the guide, and pass the game on the first try.

There are always people in the world who are so talented that they are ridiculously good, and there are always some people who are unwilling to give in and hope to make up for the gap with non-existent fantasy things.
