Save the Bachelor of Heaven

During the fourth class in the afternoon, Xiang Nan was called to the office by Fan Chengzhi.

"Qin Li, do you still want to go to the Mathematical Olympiad?" Fan Chengzhi asked Xiang Nan.

"Teacher, can I still go?" Xiang Nan asked.

"There is only one quota for the second year of high school in our school. You participated in the Mathematical Olympiad in junior high school and your results were quite ideal, so you have an advantage over other students." Fan Chengzhi nodded, "And in this monthly exam, you also proved your strength with your results, so the teacher is willing to fight for this opportunity for you."

"Thank you, teacher, I am willing to participate." Xiang Nan nodded.

With his strength, there is absolutely no problem in participating in the Mathematical Olympiad. At that time, he can be recommended to college in advance. Although going to college requires separation from Huang Shu for a period of time, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages in general.

Because high school students and college students seem to be students, but in fact they are completely different in nature. College students are already regarded as adults, while high school students are still regarded as children even if they are already adults.

Therefore, many things that college students can do cannot be done by high school students. The simplest example is work-study.

Huang Shu got into trouble because she wanted to earn money by dancing in a bar to earn her living expenses and tuition fees. If Xiang Nan gave her money, she wouldn't have to take risks.

As long as she stayed in school, the probability of getting into trouble was very low. After all, no matter how bad the schoolmates were, they were still more restrained than those bad people in society.

If Xiang Nan was still a middle school student, it would be difficult to give her money. After all, middle school students spend their parents' money, and Huang Shu couldn't accept his financial support. But if Xiang Nan was a college student, it would be different.

"Okay, there is less than a month left before the exam, you have to be prepared." Fan Chengzhi nodded.

"I will, teacher." Xiang Nan promised.

"Qin Li, you must seize this opportunity. If you can get the first prize, you will have the opportunity to be recommended to college. Those are all famous schools. It would be great if you can go." Fan Chengzhi instructed.

"I know, teacher, thank you." Xiang Nan nodded.

He knew that Fan Chengzhi was kind enough to help him. He knew how much harm Qin Dazhi would cause to himself if he got into trouble, so he wanted to seize this opportunity.

By then, if he gets good grades in the Mathematical Olympiad, he will be able to be recommended to a prestigious school, leave Yuying, leave Shendong, and leave this place full of hostility towards him.

"I know you are a smart kid, okay, go ahead." Fan Chengzhi waved his hand.

Xiang Nan stood up, bowed deeply to Fan Chengzhi, and then went back to the classroom.

...

After school in the afternoon, Wang Di made an appointment to play ball with others, leaving Xiang Nan and Huang Shu to take the bus home.

His bicycle was punctured several times, and Xiang Nan was too lazy to fix it, so now he takes the bus to and from school.

"Qin Li, why don't you bring a scarf again? Aren't you really cold?" Huang Shu saw Xiang Nan's bare neck and asked with concern.

"Not cold." Xiang Nan waved his hand.

With his thousand-year practice, a mere minus twenty degrees Celsius was really not taken seriously by him.

"Don't you want to ask me why the police always look for me?" Huang Shu lowered her head and suddenly said.

"No." Xiang Nan replied.

"Why?" Huang Shu asked puzzledly.

Many people want to know why the police would look for her. Especially people like Fang Liu and Hu Kaizhi, who regard snooping into other people's privacy as a hobby.

"Because I don't care, because it's not your fault." Xiang Nan looked back at her and said.

Hiss~ Huang Shu twitched her nose, choked slightly, and asked in a low voice, "Then do you care about it yourself, I mean your father..."

"It doesn't matter whether you care or not, you can never change other people's views of you." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "If the world treats you badly, you can endure it, and you can resist if you can't endure it.

But you must never admit defeat, let alone lose your self-esteem. Everything in the world can be taken away by others, except self-esteem. So if this happens again in the future, don't cry, if you cry, they win."

"Well, I listen to you, I will never cry again in the future." Hearing Xiang Nan say this, Huang Shu was very touched and nodded, but her tears still flowed down.

Because for such a long time, since her mother left, no one has ever told her the truth, and no one has ever cared about her, so now she was really moved to hear Xiang Nan's sincere words, and couldn't help crying again.

"Look at you, you just said you wouldn't cry, but you're crying again." Xiang Nan took out a pack of tissues from his pocket and handed it to her.

"I was blinded by the wind." Huang Shu covered up, took the tissue, wiped the tears from her face, "Fragrant?" Then she said in surprise.

"Well, don't cry anymore in the future, you look good when you smile." Xiang Nan nodded.

"Okay, I promise you." Huang Shu nodded and smiled.

...

"Huang Shu, I'll give you another gift." Xiang Nan said, taking off the demon-subduing pestle from his neck and handing it to Huang Shu, "This is called the 'demon-subduing pestle', which can cut off worries and make you feel at ease. I hope it can bring you peace."

This demon-subduing pestle was inherited from the world of "No Thief in the World". It has the effects of calming the mind, eliminating inner demons, and concentrating the mind. It is very effective and very helpful for work, study, and life.

Before Xiang Nan practiced internal skills, he relied on its protection to avoid going astray. But now that his internal skills have been perfected, he doesn't have to rely on it.

"Give it to me?" Huang Shu was very surprised.

Although this demon-subduing pestle looks ordinary, it is just a small pendant worth twenty or thirty yuan, which can be bought at any small commodity market, but she did not dislike it.

Because a gift of a goose feather from a thousand miles away is a token of great sentiment. Xiang Nan gave her the demon-subduing pestle, which allowed her to cut off her worries and feel at ease. This thought alone touched her.

"Put it on yourself." Xiang Nan said again.

Huang Shu nodded and put on the demon-subduing pestle.

Perhaps it was a psychological effect. After putting it on, she really felt a sense of inner peace and elimination of worries.

"Qin Li, thank you." Huang Shu said sincerely to Xiang Nan.

"You're welcome." Xiang Nan smiled, "I'll tell you another secret. I'm going to participate in the Mathematical Olympiad."

"Really?! That's amazing." Huang Shu said admiringly when she heard it.

"If I can get good grades, then I may be recommended to go to university." Xiang Nan explained.

"That's great, then you have to work hard." Huang Shu clapped her hands.

"I will." Xiang Nan nodded, "When the time comes, I will apply to a university in Shendong City. In that case, I can continue to stay in Shendong. I can continue to accompany my grandfather and continue to tutor you."

"..." Huang Shu was stunned, and then laughed happily, "Qin Li, thank you so much."

She was very moved that Xiang Nan could put her and her grandfather together. In this world, except for her mother, no one else cares about her like Xiang Nan.

"You're welcome, we are good friends." Xiang Nan nodded and smiled, "Okay, the car is here, let's get on."

"Okay." Huang Shu nodded.
