Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei Returns from Japan

"Do you want to visit the classical music club later?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"I just contacted the senior students in the music club, and their club activities have already ended, so I won't be going today. We'll meet again on Friday afternoon," Liu Miaomiao said.

"Why Friday? Can't it be tomorrow afternoon?"

"Mingfei, you're so silly. Have you forgotten that we have our entrance exam the day after tomorrow? We're going to visit clubs tomorrow afternoon, are you even going to study?"

Liu Miaomiao said earnestly:

"Although the entrance exam won't affect anything, every exam in high school is crucial. Mingfei, your foundation is already a little weak, so you need to work hard to catch up in high school. At least you should get into Shanghai University of Finance and Economics for the college entrance exam..."

Lu Mingfei was taken aback: "Why Shanghai University of Finance and Economics?"

Lu Mingfei was very curious as to why Liu Miaomiao wanted him to apply to Shanghai University of Finance and Economics.

Liu Miaomiao said very seriously, "Because I want to apply to Fudan University, and the closest school to Fudan is Shanghai University of Finance and Economics..."

……

When Liu Miaomiao and Lu Mingfei left the stadium, the sun had completely sunk behind the mountains, leaving only a faint afterglow lingering on a corner of the sky.

Liu Miaomiao and Lu Mingfei walked together along the tree-lined path, their shadows overlapping behind them.

They walked until they reached the school gate, where they waved goodbye. Liu Miaomiao waited for her BMW to arrive, while Lu Mingfei walked in the opposite direction, one to the left and one to the right.

As night falls, the true face of the city is finally revealed in the outline of the lights.

Lu Mingfei rested his head on his hands, thinking about what Liu Miaomiao had just said.

In her previous life, Liu Miaomiao did indeed get into Fudan University.

It was unexpected that Liu Miaomiao would be so forward-thinking, already seriously considering the possibility of a relationship between the two of them after entering high school.

Shanghai University of Finance and Economics is indeed the closest university to Fudan University, only about a ten-minute walk away.

It's probably because he considered his middle school entrance exam scores and realized that getting into Fudan University was unrealistic.

Shanghai University of Finance and Economics is a university that I can't get into with my current grades, but I have a good chance if I work hard.

If you're going to date Liu Miaomiao, Shanghai University of Finance and Economics is definitely a great choice.

Unfortunately, the university I would attend was already decided long ago.

Some things can be changed, but some things are very difficult to change.

What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again.

but……

"An entrance exam..."

Lu Mingfei suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Although it may not ultimately be as Liu Miaomiao wishes, and we may not be able to attend university in the same city.

But I hope that, at least during this time we're together, I can make her happy.

Lu Mingfei sighed, a half-smile on his face:

"Since that's the case, I'll learn a little bit too!"

……

The entrance exam mainly covers knowledge points from junior high school.

Although Lu Mingfei had a thorough grasp of most of the knowledge points from junior and senior high school, he still needed to review them since the exams were approaching.

However, Lu Mingfei left all his junior high school textbooks at his uncle and aunt's house and didn't bring them with him. Although there were bookstores near Shilan Middle School, they were not in the direction of Lu Mingfei's rented house, but on the other side.

Therefore, Lu Mingfei could only take a taxi to a bookstore near Shilan Middle School to look for reference books or test papers.

Actually, most public bookstores are already closed by this time, but because they are bookstores located near schools and cater to high school students, they close later.

When Lu Mingfei arrived at the bookstore, there were quite a few people, mostly high school students. However, not many of them were wearing Shilan High School uniforms; most were students from another public high school not far from Shilan High School.

In bookstores like this, the reference section and the novel section are usually separate, and the reference section is arranged in order of grade level.

Generally, summary materials for junior high school students, as well as some high school entrance exam questions, are placed in the junior high school materials section.

Following the signs, Lu Mingfei found the third-year junior high school section and was surprised to run into an acquaintance.

The acquaintance he ran into was none other than Su Xiaoqiang, the recent "King of Books." Lu Mingfei remembered that Su Xiaoqiang should have left right after school, but now it was almost seven o'clock, so why was he still lingering in the bookstore near the school?

Is it really that curled?

Su Xiaoqiang was clearly not expected to run into Lu Mingfei here, and looked completely bewildered.

The reference book she was flipping through slipped from her fingers and closed.

In Su Xiaoqiang's mind, the reason why Lu Mingfei would appear here is self-evident.

Oh no, this guy seems to be really serious about the entrance exam results. He's even browsing in a bookstore this late.

It was just a joke, was it really necessary to make such a fuss?

As Su Xiaoqiang was lost in thought, she saw Lu Mingfei raise his hand and greet her with a smile.

"What a coincidence, Su Xiaoqiang," Lu Mingfei said.

"Yeah, what a coincidence."

Su Xiaoqiang gave a forced smile, then lowered her head to flip through the documents in her hand.

However, Lu Mingfei's sudden appearance clearly disrupted her peaceful Dao heart.

Seeing Lu Mingfei squatting down beside her, flipping through the review materials one by one, Su Xiaoqiang felt flustered and excited. Her attention was focused on Lu Mingfei, and she had no mind to look at the materials in her hand.

Chapter 101 The Dinner Party Stopped by a Rainstorm

Nighttime, bookstore

Su Xiaoqiang held a copy of "Detailed Explanation and Practice" in her hands, pretending to look at the supplementary teaching materials in her hand, but her beautiful eyes kept sneaking glances at Lu Mingfei, who was facing away from her and choosing supplementary teaching materials.

The teaching materials on the market are all kinds of different. In his previous life, Lu Mingfei never seriously read a single teaching material. The famous "Five-Year Middle School Entrance Examination and Three-Year Simulation" was only published after 09.

So now when it comes to choosing supplementary textbooks and test papers, I don't know which one is good, so I can only flip through them one by one.

A haughty, melodious female voice came from behind:

"That practice test paper you have isn't good. The questions in the mock tests are all outdated and have long since deviated from the actual high school entrance exam. Besides, the explanations in the answer key aren't comprehensive enough," Xiaotiannv said calmly.

God knows why she meddled in other people's business and started telling Lu Mingfei how to choose study materials. By the time Su Xiaoqiang came to her senses, the words had just slipped out naturally.

Damn it, it should be a good thing for me that he chose such rubbish study guides and didn't do well on the test! Why did I have to be so talkative! Su Xiaoqiang cursed inwardly.

Lu Mingfei was actually quite surprised. These past few days, Xiao Tiannv had been studying in class, doing practice tests after class, and disappearing without a trace after school, all in an effort to consistently surpass him in the entrance exam.

Now they actually tell me which supplementary teaching materials are bad.

If other girls said this to him, Lu Mingfei would probably suspect that she had other schemes.

For example, they might deliberately portray good teaching materials as bad, and bad teaching materials as good, playing a trick on themselves.

However, Lu Mingfei knew Su Xiaoqiang's personality. She was always straightforward and never boasted about her family's wealth or hid it. She would even tell him directly who she liked. How could such a beautiful girl stoop to playing tricks?

"Which test paper is better?" Lu Mingfei asked.

The consequence of meddling in other people's business is that the people you've been actively avoiding these past few days will suddenly become unavoidable.

Su Xiaoqiang wanted to sigh but couldn't. She put the "Detailed Explanation and Practice" book back on the bookshelf next to her, put her hands on her hips, and walked coolly to Lu Mingfei's side, stopping about fifty centimeters away.

Perhaps because of the muggy weather at night, she took off her jacket over her school uniform and tied it around her waist, like an extension of her school skirt. She wore only a sheer white silk shirt on top.

"Which type do you want? Something with basic question types or something more advanced?" Su Xiaoqiang asked, her eyes fixed on the bookshelf.

Su Xiaoqiang had seen Lu Mingfei's middle school entrance exam scores and was worried that recommending something too difficult right away might be too much for Lu Mingfei to handle.

"Let's take it a step further, let's push ourselves a bit," Lu Mingfei said.

With his current level, he doesn't actually need to solidify his foundation. He just needs to do some practice questions and refresh his memory of the knowledge points he has forgotten. He should have no problem passing the entrance exam.

Since Lu Mingfei said he wanted a more advanced test, Su Xiaoqiang nodded and then waved to Lu Mingfei, "Then you can move aside."

Lu Mingfei stepped back a little, and Su Xiaoqiang walked to the spot where Lu Mingfei had been standing, tiptoeing to reach a book on the top shelf.

Su Xiaoqiang was already quite tall, nearly 170 cm, and when she stood on tiptoe, she appeared even taller. Even her long school skirt couldn't hide her fair and slender thighs, which only stopped about an inch above her knees. Her outstretched arms moved gracefully and lightly.

As she gently hooked two fingers around the spine of the book, the heel of her flat shoe slapped against the ground, and the booklet landed lightly in her hand.

"Here, this one's alright. I just finished working through this set of math and physics questions yesterday. It has past exam papers from recent years, as well as some more difficult mock exams, and the answer explanations are quite comprehensive." Su Xiaoqiang handed the test booklet to Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei flipped through the book and glanced at it briefly. It was indeed much better than the one he had just picked up.

"You've been studying really hard lately, afraid I'll surpass you in the entrance exam, so why are you being so kind as to recommend study materials to me?"

Lu Mingfei didn't mention that matter, but it seemed like he had. Because Su Xiaoqiang's emotions, which she had finally managed to suppress, were stirred up again by Lu Mingfei's words.

Lu Mingfei certainly didn't take that statement seriously, but Su Xiaoqiang felt that Lu Mingfei seemed to have taken it seriously, and what was even more annoying was that she herself seemed to be taking the matter quite seriously.

Whether Lu Mingfei took it seriously or not, as long as her grades surpassed Lu Mingfei's, it would be as if the whole thing had never happened! That's what Su Xiaoqiang thought.

"Two different things."

Su Xiaoqiang didn't look at Lu Mingfei when she said this.

"I study hard because I want to win the bet with you; I recommend materials to you because we're buddies. These two things are unrelated."

When she said this, she deliberately emphasized the word "bro," and it was unclear whether she was emphasizing it for Lu Mingfei or for someone else.

Lu Mingfei actually wanted to tell Su Xiaoqiang that he hadn't taken her joke to heart at all.

Moreover, even if he did surpass Su Xiaoqiang in the entrance exam, he wouldn't actually use that as a talking point.

Who is Su Xiaoqiang? She's a little angel, the first crush of a third of the boys at Shilan High School. She's so beautiful, so smart, and so proud, and her family owns several mines waiting for her to inherit. She's sure to find her own happiness and fulfillment in life.

He wasn't a scumbag like Zhao Menghua, who flirted with the prettiest girls in class, dumping one after another, until decades later, he couldn't even get everyone together for a class reunion.

Lu Mingfei actually felt that Zhao Menghua had also wanted to mess with Xiaotiannv back then, but Xiaotiannv's personality was too domineering. She wasn't a pushover like Liu Miaomiao or Chen Wenwen, and Zhao Menghua couldn't handle her at all.

In addition, her family background was much stronger than Zhao Menghua's, which is why Zhao Menghua never dared to make a move against the Little Heavenly Maiden.

However, for some inexplicable reason, Lu Mingfei ultimately did not tell Su Xiaoqiang what he was thinking.

"Which ones do you want? Do you want math, physics, and chemistry books?" Su Xiaoqiang asked.

"I can do it myself."
