Chapter 278 Honor

Chapter 278 Honor
As the holidays approach and the new semester brings new tasks, Ye Yining is very busy.

Xu Mingyuan borrowed the notes of his major courses and made a copy. Although he could graduate no matter how many subjects he failed, the world history course was not difficult. If he could pass some open-book exams, he would definitely not want to fail.

Tao Shuxin's university life was quite happy. She read books and memorized exercises every day. In the afternoon, she would go to the tree-shaded path with Xu Mingyuan, or go to the lake for a date. Every now and then, they would be seen in the study room and library, reading and studying together.

The happiest thing for the little girl was to hold a cup of milk tea and sip it, because Xu Mingyuan didn't like milk tea, and at most she would order a glass of lemonade.

At this time, Tao Shuxin would take a few sips of milk tea, and then grab his lemon water to rinse his mouth. This would make the next sip of milk tea taste richer, and the sweet and greasy taste would be very delicious.

As for going back to his home to play games and doing embarrassing things when he was deeply in love, Tao Shuxin would feel guilty and exclude such things from his university life.

Should home and school still be separated?

This kind of life is like an ivory tower half-detached from society. Tao Shuxin doesn't have to worry about anything and can live a comfortable and fulfilling life every day just like Xu Mingyuan.

Seeing Xu Mingyuan grabbing his hair and reciting the questions, Tao Shuxin covered her mouth and laughed secretly. The "grunt" sound was obviously made on purpose.

Xu Mingyuan pulled her hand away, and seeing that she was still grinning foolishly, he stuffed a paper ball into her hand.

"Bah bah bah..."

Tao Shuxin did not fight back as usual, but just spit out the paper ball and laughed at Xu Mingyuan for not studying. She said in a rhythmic tone: "Hey, sharpening your sword before the battle, aren't you going to make people laugh?"

"You'll do well on the test?"

Seeing the little girl being sarcastic, Xu Mingyuan asked with amusement.

"Of course! Do you even need to ask?"

Tao Shuxin's eyes widened as a matter of course.

"We are not in the same major, so why are you competing with your classmates? Also, my dad doesn't care about my grades. But it's different for Teacher He. Haha, you still have the heart to laugh here, but you will only cry when you get beaten when you get home." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"Uh……"

Tao Shuxin's open mouth froze, and she slowly closed it and swallowed her saliva. Thinking that this might really be the case, her face suddenly darkened.

"Right?"

Seeing Tao Shuxin lowered his head to read and stopped disturbing him, Xu Mingyuan asked with a smile.

"Shut up, you're annoying, I hate you..."

Tao Shuxin moved her butt to the side, not wanting to be next to him anymore.

I remembered that I had promised my mother that as long as I applied to Jiangnan University, I would be guaranteed to receive a scholarship every semester.

But now, it is difficult for me to get into the top ten in the class, let alone the entire Chinese language major, where it is difficult to rank into the top 50.

You still want a scholarship when you can't even be rated as a three-good student...

"I was named a three-good student this year."

Xu Mingyuan's casual words made Tao Shuxin jump up and down.

"You're talking nonsense! You're such a bad student! How is this possible?! Are you kidding me? You've skipped 800 classes, and you still want to be a model student? You're dreaming!"

"The standard for selecting three good students in a university is not necessarily based on academic performance. Students who do good things and bring honor to the school will also be selected. The comprehensive quality of a university is the standard for evaluating three good students." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"You're talking nonsense. Last semester, all of us were rated as three-good students by our top-ranked classmates!"

Although Tao Shuxin believed most of it, she felt depressed when she thought that Xu Mingyuan could make the assessment while she could not.

"Of course it's like this in the new semester. Actually, I could have been named a three-good student last year, but the award ceremony organized by my classmates on the Internet played a trick on the school, so I didn't get it." Xu Mingyuan said with a smile.

"I don't believe it! I don't believe it!"

Tao Shuxin kept shaking his head, feeling that his life was hopeless.

"believe or not."

"..."

Tao Shuxin lost interest in studying. After thinking for a while, she still couldn't accept this reality, so she pushed his arm and said, "Is it true?"

"fake."

Xu Mingyuan replied without even raising his head.

"you're lying!"

Seeing him being so perfunctory, Tao Shuxin felt very uncomfortable.

"That's true."

"I do not believe!"

"Hahaha……"

"Don't laugh..."

Tao Shuxin felt very aggrieved. She had always been an excellent student since she was a child.

Although it was not as easy to get a high ranking in the grade as it was in elementary and junior high school, he was still much better than Xu Mingyuan. But now, it seemed that the thing he was most proud of was becoming insignificant.

"Are you done yet? Are you so petty because of such a small matter? Okay, okay, I'll go get one for you."

Seeing that she was holding her mouth tightly and seemed about to cry, Xu Mingyuan had no choice but to put his arm around her shoulders and rock her left and right.

As long as it is not linked to money, honorary awards such as "Three Good Students" are actually not difficult to obtain.

"Come on, if you really get it from me, I don't know how my classmates in the department will make fun of me behind my back."

Tao Shuxin refused without even thinking about it. The girl was too shy to agree to do something like this behind the scenes. "Then I'll give mine to you. Is that okay?" Xu Mingyuan said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"No, no, it's not like I got it by my own ability." Tao Shuxin pouted and refused.

"It's just a sentence in the file. It's useless. Who will read this when you enter the society?"

“That’s an honor.”

Tao Shuxin hummed and moaned, becoming more and more unhappy the more she spoke.

"If you do this again, I will spank your little butt hard." Xu Mingyuan threatened with narrowed eyes.

Seeing that the little girl was really impossible to communicate with, Xu Mingyuan had no choice but to use the trick of using force to defeat skill. After all, all small emotions can be broken by the rules of physics.

"you dare!"

Tao Shuxin was startled.

Although the two of them were sitting in the farthest corner of the study room, the exam was approaching and even in the most remote study room, there were more than a dozen students reading books everywhere, and there were also students sitting in another corner of the last row.

"Is there anything I dare not do?"

With a scream from the little girl, Xu Mingyuan held her on his lap.

Then Xu Mingyuan exerted a little force with his arms and pushed the little girl down on the ground, with her little butt raised up.

Snapped!
Xu Mingyuan exerted some strength.

The study room was relatively empty, so no one would notice the two people whispering. However, a crisp "pop" sound startled the students who were studying.

However, Tao Shuxin did not cry out in pain, nor did she even make a sound.

Because when she looked up, she saw that the students in front of her were saluting them.

Although her little butt was numb and swollen, Tao Shuxin's face was the first to swell up like a monkey's butt. At this time, she had to lower her head and pretend that she knew nothing, but her fingers were twisting the soft flesh on Xu Mingyuan's waist.

Jiang University students did not say anything about Xu Mingyuan's uncivilized behavior of interrupting their studies, but just turned back to continue memorizing books and doing exercises.

It’s not because they know Xu Mingyuan. Most people don’t care who he is and have only heard of his name occasionally.

Besides, everyone is very busy at the end of the semester, so they won’t say anything to Xu Mingyuan just because their studies are interrupted.

"If you pinch me again, I will beat you up." Xu Mingyuan tilted his head and reminded.

Tao Shuxin's fingers didn't have much strength, but the little girl's flesh was pinched very little, so it still hurt.

"..."

Tao Shuxin quickly let go. She knew very well in her heart that this bastard would really do this. After all, Xu Mingyuan was really shameless. But she still wanted it...

Unlike Xu Mingyuan's mixed major, where 30% of his classmates were good enough to study, Tao Shuxin's Chinese Language and Literature major had at least 70% to 80% of the students studying hard every day.

Under the pressure of a group of test-takers, even if Tao Shuxin was a good student, it would be difficult for her to get top scores, not to mention that Xu Mingyuan had wasted most of her energy.

……

The exams are over, but the results won’t be released until next semester.

This is the good thing about college: you can have fun during the holidays without having to worry about failing your grades.

When Tao Shuxin saw Xu Mingyuan holding the honorary certificate for being a three-good student, her lips almost turned up to the sky. She had won countless awards since she was a child, but she had never received a certificate of honor.

Seeing Xu Mingyuan throwing the certificate of honor aside like throwing away garbage, Tao Shuxin still pouted and helped him pick it up.

After all, it was an honor. This was something they would talk about many years later. Tao Shuxin didn't bear grudges, but she remembered clearly that Xu Mingyuan had spanked her because of this incident. Even if it had been ten or twenty years, she would still settle the score with him...

After the exam, there was a dinner party.

Tao Shuxin's class also had a dinner party, but when a group of studious little girls got together, everyone just ate quietly and didn't even finish their glass of beer.

It's not as lively as Xu Mingyuan's place, where men and women sit at the same table and drink together.

Of course, the girl who loves to join in the fun would not miss the opportunity to gossip, and followed Xu Mingyuan to the dinner party.

Anyway, Xu Mingyuan was the one who paid most of the expenses for the dinner for his class, so it was no big deal for him to bring a family member.

It's a pity that there is no gossip to read. Xu Mingyuan privately reminded Ye Yining that after doing this, some things will not be exposed in the open, which is meaningless.

As soon as July came, Yang Zhi's biggest concern came up. She would call every day to ask if Xu Mingyuan was coming home.

"Brother, have you finished the exam?"

"Well, the exam is over."

"Then you, when will you come back?"

Hearing that the exam was over, Yang Zhi pursed her lips, a little happy.

"Aren't you in school? Just study hard."

"Oh……"

Yang Zhi bit her lips lightly, feeling a little depressed.

As for Xu Mingyuan, since Tao Shuxin's family doesn't know the specific holiday time yet, they will definitely stay together every day.

After climbing into bed after dinner, Tao Shuxin would basically wait until noon the next day before she would yawn and stretch, lazily waiting for Xu Mingyuan to call and order takeout.

It’s all because I stayed up too late playing games on my laptop last night…
