A Young Woman's Heart

They both suddenly fell silent.

After a long while, Mo Kong walked to his principal's desk and said, "If we compromise, I agree to hold extra classes for the students on Saturdays to re-explain the knowledge points that are not easy to grasp."

"No, it's Saturday, and there's also half a day on Sunday."

"No, my bottom line is Saturday, or even more specifically, half a day on Saturday is enough."

"...Saturday until 9 p.m."

"School ends at 4:45 on Saturdays as usual." Mo Kong's lips curled into a playful smile. "And students ranked in the top fifty in the whole school can choose not to attend class."

"How could that be!" Ji Huaimin's eyes widened. "Those with good grades should study even harder!"

“I think good grades should be followed by relaxation. Too much pressure will prevent you from performing to your full potential.” Mo Kong glanced at him indifferently. “How about this, although the top fifty students can skip classes, they still have to come to school on Saturdays. They can also have free time. The swimming pool and playground are open to them. If they want to study on their own but don’t want to go to the classroom, they can go to the study room that is specially assigned to them, or study alone with a teacher who is not teaching.”

Ji Huaimin frowned. He knew very well that he had no room for negotiation with the man in front of him. Since the man had already said that, it meant that there was almost no possibility of him making any concessions.

"At the same time, you must agree to the several activities I arrange for the senior high school students. In fact, it doesn't matter if you disagree, but I hope you will not obstruct them. Ji Huaimin."

"Heh!" Ji Huaimin gritted his teeth. "Fine! Mo Kong, let me tell you, you won't be the principal for much longer!"

“It’s alright, I will establish a private school.” Mo Kong smiled calmly. “I will buy the name of Yukong High School.”

After saying these words, Ji Huaimin slammed the door and left angrily. Mo Kong sat in his principal's chair, leaning back relaxed. A moment later, a fluffy little head peeked in. Su Yuqing blinked and asked softly, "Gone?"

"Hmm, he's gone. What a troublesome old man, haha..."

"Phew, really, your noise startled me downstairs, it was so loud."

"There's nothing we can do; he's very stubborn."

"You are more stubborn than him."

“No, I know how to be flexible.” Mo Kong shook his pipe, which he had just finished smoking, seemingly too lazy to put in more tobacco, so he simply lit a regular cigarette. “The current arrangement is that classes are on Saturdays, and we get out of school before evening self-study. Of course, he can’t interfere with my schedule.”

"It's really not easy." Su Yuqing nimbly slid into Mo Kong's arms, resting her head on his chin. "But if life is too good, won't the students find it hard to cope with the realities of society?"

"People who live peaceful and happy lives have a stronger psychological resilience, while people who live in pain are more likely to explode like a powder keg."

"why?"

"Because the former can still think of the light that once existed when facing darkness, and strive to find the light, but the latter cannot see hope in the darkness, because such a thing has never existed."

"That makes sense? Well, I can't argue with you on this." Su Yuqing gently rubbed her head against Mo Kong's stubble chin. "So Saturday is the day all students have regular classes?"

"The top fifty students don't need to participate, and the playground, swimming pool, and even the school's arcade are open to them."

"This doesn't look like senior year at all, pfft." Su Yuqing covered her mouth and laughed.

"Teaching according to aptitude."

"Hmm...when do you plan to schedule the training camp?"

"When the weather gets warmer."

"Have you made arrangements for all the students with athletic talents?"

"Yes, there are also students with musical talents. I will arrange for them to take the exams, and if there is an opportunity, they can be admitted through early admissions."

"You've agreed to this too?"

"Hehe, it's really not easy to get a spot. They don't pay much attention to students with musical talents these days, but it's easier for students with athletic talents."

Su Yuqing slumped into Mo Kong's arms, even taking off her shoes and stepping on his thighs: "Mmm, I'm sleepy..."

Are you tired today?

"No, it's not that. I haven't worked in a while, so I'm naturally sleepy on my first day back... Let me lean against you for a bit, I want to sleep..."

Did you lock the door?

"Don't worry, of course it's locked."

"It was a long-planned scheme."

"No, that's not true..."

Chapter 181 The Last Physical Examination for Senior Year Students

(One)

2002 2 Month 22 Day.

Yesterday, Mo Xueyao left all her books at school, so she traveled light today.

The hem of the school uniform fluttered in the gentle breeze, and the rare sunny day made the night fade away even earlier.

Because she needed to have her blood drawn, she didn't even eat breakfast and went straight to school with Li Wanyan.

The flowers in the flower bed seemed to be more expansive, and the cherry blossom trees under the teaching building had countless buds ready to bloom, adding a touch of pink to the greenery.

Every spring is the most beautiful season at Yukong High School.

Especially when the cherry blossom tree at the entrance is in full bloom.

The entire school will be enveloped in a romantic pink atmosphere.

However, for the first time, Mo Xueyao sensed a touch of inexplicable sadness amidst this romantic feeling, perhaps because its blooming also meant that graduation was drawing ever closer.

Days are no longer counted in years or months, but in days.

"So fast." Mo Xueyao put a hand on Li Wanyan's shoulder. "So fast..."

"Ok?"

"When I first met Wanyan, you were still wearing pigtails."

"Hmm." Li Wanyan glanced at her with amusement, loosened her single ponytail, and skillfully and quickly tied it into two pigtails. "Like this?"

"Hey, when did you change your hairstyle?"

"Just now."

"No, no, it's not the same as before."

"how."

"Is it because you've matured a lot? Or grown taller?" Mo Xueyao placed her left hand on her head, then moved it across, gesturing a few times. "You used to be about the same height as me..."

Li Wanyan looked down at Mo Xueyao slightly: "It's because Yaoyao hasn't grown taller."

"Ah—so, we're eating the same food, so why haven't I grown taller?!"

"Isn't this height great?" she said, pursing her lips. "It looks good."

"Wouldn't it look better if it were taller?"

"That wouldn't be cute."

"Why would I need to be cute..."

Mo Xueyao, like a deflated balloon, dangled her arms and swayed back and forth, playfully bumping Li Wanyan's body with her arms.

The latter gently stroked her head, as if to comfort her.

There was no homework to do today, so the students who came to school were noticeably more relaxed.

Wang Jiale was chatting with Hua Yinyin while leaning on Mo Xueyao's desk, and Mo Xueyao, who didn't want to listen, was forced to become a listener.

"Hey, did you hear? It seems our principal and vice principal had a fight."

"You had a fight?"

"Where do you get all these rumors about Lele?" Mo Xueyao asked helplessly, resting her chin on her hand.

"Of course, I heard it from various sources. In short, they did have a fight, and it seems to be about tutoring."

"what? What?"

"That is to say, we senior students were not supposed to have classes on weekends, but the vice principal disagreed and had a fight with the principal. It is said that we senior students may still have classes on Saturdays, just like other schools."

"Ugh—that old geezer." Mo Xueyao dragged out the sound, glanced at the pink flip phone lying quietly in her drawer, and suddenly didn't know how to comment on it.

"I heard that we seniors were originally supposed to live on campus and only be able to go back once every two weeks, but thankfully the principal didn't agree. This must be the final compromise." Wang Jiale put her hands on her hips. "Honestly, why hasn't that old man retired yet at his age?"

Hua Yinyin leaned against Mo Xueyao: "That's not bad either. If we have classes on Saturdays, we can see each other more often, right? Senior year will be over soon."

"Yinyin's strange thought process..."

"Alright, alright, Wanyan, Xiaoxue, Chali, you three distribute the medical examination forms. Everyone is free to do as you please. Just finish all the tests listed here. You can go get your blood drawn first, then you can eat something. But please remember, you can't eat anything before your blood test. You can drink some water, but don't drink too much." Ye Wen clapped her hands on the podium. "After you get your medical examination forms, you can go downstairs by yourselves. The examination rooms are on the first to third floors. Just follow the signs posted on the doors. The blood drawing area is on the playground."

"—Another blood draw..."

"Yinyin's hemophobia hasn't been cured yet?" Wang Jiale tilted her head and looked at her.

"How could it possibly be cured!"

"How about trying desensitization therapy? Seeing some blood every day?"

"No, no, no—" Hua Yinyin shook her head vigorously, her two braids hitting her little face again and again, making her look like a rattle drum.

"Alright, alright, let's go. First, let's get our blood drawn. Let's get it done quickly, I'm starving because I didn't have breakfast." Mo Xueyao got up early, so she naturally felt hungry more easily than others.

Students who had received their medical examination reports went downstairs in twos and threes, and the corridor was filled with the sound of their footsteps.

Of course, there were also boys who were full of energy at the start of the semester, running downstairs as fast as they could. Of course, it's also possible that they wanted to get everything done quickly so they could have free time on the playground.

Mo Xueyao squinted and glanced at him. Sure enough, the guy leading the run was Li Hongran.

He must have even prepared the basketball.
