A god-level beauty system? But I'm already a god-level beauty!

On the day of the high school entrance exam.

Shen Ye woke up very early in the morning.

After washing up, he checked all the things he needed for the exam—his admission ticket, ID card, 2B pencils… everything was neatly arranged in a transparent file folder.

Everything is ready.

He slung his backpack over his shoulder and walked out of the apartment.

There were already quite a few students on campus, walking in twos and threes toward the examination hall.

Everyone wore expressions of either nervousness or anticipation, and they walked hurriedly.

Shen Ye walked towards the first examination room along the familiar route.

Just as I reached the entrance of the teaching building, a familiar voice came from there.

"Old Shen!"

Shen Ye turned his head and saw a familiar figure running towards him.

Liu Gaoyuan.

This guy was wearing a loose T-shirt and shorts, his hair was messy, and he had his signature silly grin on his face.

"What the hell are you doing here? Following me?" Shen Ye asked, somewhat surprised.

"I'm here to take the exam," Liu Gaoyuan said matter-of-factly. "My exam room is the seventh room."

"Are you also taking the entrance exam at Hui Man Middle School?"

"Yes, that's right." Liu Gaoyuan nodded. "Isn't it a coincidence that we can walk together for a while?"

Shen Ye nodded, genuinely somewhat surprised.

He thought Liu Gaoyuan would be assigned to another school, but he didn't expect him to be assigned to Huiwen Middle School as well.

They've been engrossed in their studies these past two days and haven't been exchanging messages much.

"Let's go, we can talk as we walk." Liu Gaoyuan patted him on the shoulder.

The two walked side by side toward the teaching building.

"Old Shen, are you nervous?" Liu Gaoyuan asked.

"I'm not nervous," Shen Ye said. "How about you?"

"Me?" Liu Gaoyuan grinned. "Do I look like someone who gets nervous?"

"If you don't do well on the exam, then you'll go straight to the next stop: vocational school."

Shen Ye couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"I won't answer."

"And stop talking nonsense. With grades like that, you're not even qualified to go to a vocational school."

"Hehe, keep it low-key." Liu Gaoyuan chuckled. "I was just joking with you to ease the tension."

"You don't seem nervous at all."

Liu Gaoyuan patted him on the shoulder with a smile: "It's all thanks to you. I've learned a little bit from you, and I'm not far off."

"Come on," Shen Ye said. "It's not like I'm taking the exam for you."

The two joked as they walked, which eased the tense atmosphere considerably.

"Alright, I've arrived." Liu Gaoyuan stopped and pointed to the teaching building in front of him. "Exam room number seven is on the third floor."

"I want to keep going," Shen Ye said.

"Okay, good luck." Liu Gaoyuan waved. "Want to have dinner together after the exam?"

"OK."

"It's a deal then, my treat."

"You have money?"

"Absolutely, my mom just gave me two hundred yuan yesterday."

"Alright, then I won't be polite."

"Spend as you please."

Liu Gaoyuan ran into the teaching building with a smile.

Shen Ye shook his head and continued walking towards the first examination hall.

......

The first examination room is located at the very back of the teaching building.

Shen Ye walked to the door, showed his admission ticket, and then went into the classroom.

The classroom was already quite full of students.

Shen Ye found his seat and sat down.

His seat was in the second row of the classroom, by the window, with a great view of the playground outside.

He took out his stationery, placed it on the table, then leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest.

Time passed by, second by second.

Soon, the proctor came in and began to read out the exam rules.

"During the exam, whispering, passing notes, and using electronic devices are prohibited..."

After reading the rules, the teacher began distributing the test papers.

"Start answering questions."

As soon as he finished speaking, the classroom was filled with the sound of papers being flipped through.

Shen Ye picked up the exam paper and quickly glanced through it.

The questions weren't difficult; they were mostly within his capabilities.

He picked up his pen and began to answer the questions.

......

The exam lasted all morning.

Shen Ye remained calm throughout the entire process, answering the questions methodically, checking them once, and then handing in his paper.

For him, the high school entrance exam was not a challenge.

With his grades, getting into Huaihai No.1 High School is almost a certainty.

The bell rang, signaling the end of the Chinese exam.

"The exam is over. Stop answering questions."

The proctor's voice echoed in the classroom.

Shen Ye put down his pen, tidied up the test paper and answer sheet, and handed them to the teacher.

Then he got up and walked out of the examination room.

The classroom was already packed with students, each with a relieved expression on their face.

"Finally, the exams are over!"

"I'm exhausted!"

"Never mind, let's go get something good to eat first!"

Shen Ye squeezed through the crowd and walked towards the entrance of the teaching building.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Liu Gaoyuan standing there, looking around.

Upon seeing Shen Ye emerge, he immediately ran over.

"Old Shen! How did the exam go?"

"Not bad," Shen Ye said. "How about you?"

"Not bad." Liu Gaoyuan nodded. "It's just that the composition was a bit abstract, so I just wrote something casually. I should be able to get a so-so score of forty-something."

"You're pretty amazing."

"Of course," Liu Gaoyuan said smugly. "Come on, let me treat you to dinner."

The two walked and talked as they headed out of the school.

They found a noodle shop, ordered two bowls of beef noodles, and then sat down to wait for their meal.

"Old Shen, did you ever think about dating in high school?" Liu Gaoyuan suddenly asked.

He had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

"no."

Shen Ye gave him a strange look.

Isn't this kid only interested in games and animation?

"Really?" Liu Gaoyuan looked incredulous. He grinned mischievously. "You hang out with those girls every day, they must be interested in you."

You're overthinking it.

"Are you overthinking it?" Liu Gaoyuan rolled his eyes. "Look around you, Lin Chunuan, Chu Cihan, Mu Jingyan, Mu Jinghuan, they're all stunning beauties."

"The girls who like them at school could line up outside the school gates, but besides you, have they ever paid any attention to anyone?"

Shen Ye didn't speak.

"Especially that Chu Cihan, she's always sticking to you, even a fool could see she likes you," Liu Gaoyuan continued.

He's doing everything he can for his son's happiness.

Okay, actually, I received money from some rich young lady.

That young lady asked him to give Shen Ye a hint and find out his opinion of the other girls.

Liu Gaoyuan originally intended to refuse, but he couldn't resist the fact that they were offering too much.

"She was just..." Shen Ye wanted to say that she only considered him a friend, but then felt that it sounded a bit fake.

"And then there's Mu Jingyan. She's good at her studies, pretty, and your deskmate. I see you two always together; I don't believe there's nothing going on."

"We're just study partners," Shen Ye said, scratching his head.

"A study partner?"

Liu Gaoyuan's expression was priceless: "You're kidding me, what study partner would pat someone's head every day?"

Shen Ye fell silent.

He didn't know how to answer.

He had considered what Liu Gaoyuan was saying.

Lin Chunuan, Chu Cihan, Mu Jingyan, Mu Jinghuan.

Each of them was special to him, but he never seriously considered their feelings for him.

Or rather, he dared not think about it.

One is fine, but four...

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore." Seeing his silence, Liu Gaoyuan patted his shoulder. "Anyway, you can figure things out for yourself in high school. This is the best I can do to enlighten you."

"Mm." Shen Ye nodded.

The noodles arrived quickly, and the two began to eat.

But Shen Ye's mind was not on the surface.

Liu Gaoyuan's words lingered in his mind.
