My childhood sweetheart, who was reborn with me, ended up as a loser.

Chapter 9 Entrance Examination

The next day.

Xu Qingfan got up exceptionally early today. Around 7 a.m., while he was still brushing his teeth in the bathroom, Xia Xiaoxiao came over and knocked on the door to call him.

Xu Qingfan pulled up his pants, toothbrush in his mouth, and ran to open the door.

Even though he had been reborn for more than a month, he still felt a little uncomfortable seeing Xia Xiaoxiao, who looked like a little pudding.

Especially since Xia Xiaoxiao is not like a child of this age at all, whenever he tries to tease Xia Xiaoxiao, he is always the one who suffers.

This left Xu Qingfan even more speechless.

He had suspected that Xia Xiaoxiao's account might have been taken by someone else, but Xia Xiaoxiao refused to admit it, and there was nothing he could do about it.

"Why are you staring at me? Hurry up! My mom told you not to wear shorts and sandals; you need to make a good impression on the teacher."

Xia Xiaoxiao crossed her arms and leaned against the door, giving him a disgruntled glare.

Xu Qingfan smacked her nose, then turned and went back to the bathroom to brush his teeth.

Xia Xiaoxiao stared at him coldly, and only after Xu Gouzi left did a smile slowly appear on her face.

"Idiot dog."

...

After a week of continuous rain, the weather is quite nice today.

Sunlight filters through the gaps in the banyan tree, creating a beautiful Tyndall effect, as kind grandparents stand in the shade practicing Baduanjin (Eight Pieces of Brocade).

"Go away! Go away! You smell like a dog." Several stray dogs came up and wagged their tails excitedly, but Xu Qingfan kicked them away in disgust.

The dogs used to be guard dogs at a state-owned factory. After the factory closed down, the neighbors brought them back to the community to raise. They would take down any leftover food from someone's house to feed them.

The four dogs witnessed the growth of a generation and the passing of another. Until Xu Qingfan and Xia Xiaoxiao were reborn, their offspring were still accompanying them.

Xia Xiaoxiao: "Watching the dogs fight."

Xu Qingfan: "???"

Xia Xiaoxiao turned her head to the side, worried that she would burst out laughing, and dared not look at him.

"You didn't open it, so I'll eat!" Xu Qingfan stared at her with sharp eyes.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Xia Xiaoxiao looked up at the sky. The clouds today were really something.

Lin Jing quickly arrived on her motorcycle to pick them up. "What do you all want for breakfast today? How about some soup noodles?"

"Great! Godmother, you're amazing! How did you know I wanted to eat noodle soup today!"

"Mom, I want to eat soup noodles too."

"Hehehe, let's go eat some noodle soup then!"

Actually, Lin Jing wanted to eat soup noodles, which is why she asked that question. Xu Qingfan understood, and Xia Xiaoxiao understood too, but Lin Jing thought that the two of them didn't understand anything.

...

It's Saturday, and there are very few cars on the streets at this time.

After breakfast, they drove to the Experimental Primary School, and the traffic became congested again.

"I never realized there were so many beautiful cars in Licheng." Lin Jing couldn't help but complain while waiting at a traffic light.

They were driving on the right, next to a plain-looking Bentley. Although Lin Jing didn't know much about cars, she could tell that the car was indeed quite beautiful.

"Godmother, if you like it, I'll buy ten more for you when I make money!"

Lin Jing was overjoyed and, not wanting to dampen his enthusiasm, agreed, "Okay, then godmother will wait for Xiao Fan to make a lot of money."

Xu Qingfan glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw the rear window of the Bentley next to him suddenly roll down, revealing a pretty little girl staring blankly at him.

Xu Qingfan was in a good mood today and smiled at her in a friendly manner.

However, before the other party could react, the red light turned green at that moment. The other party went straight, while they turned right, and the two parted ways.

"The weather is so nice this morning."

"Yes, it's very comfortable."

...

When I arrived at the Experimental Primary School, it was not yet 8:30, but there were already many people on campus.

Just as Xu Qingfan was about to look for Lin Wanning and Xiao Ruanwen, a familiar voice rang out in his ear.

"Brother Qingfan! We're here! We're here!"

Lin Wanning stood under the banyan tree, with Xiao Ruanwen and their parents beside her. However, at this moment, Xu Qingfan's world consisted only of her.

After Lin Jing parked the car, the four of them quickly headed in opposite directions.

Lin Wanning couldn't wait to drag Xu Qingfan to "meet the parents," shouting, "Mommy, Mommy, Qingfan's here! Qingfan's here!"

"Hello Xiao Fan, my Wan Ning says your name eight hundred times a day at home." Wen Wanqing reached out and patted his head.

This was Xu Qingfan's first time meeting Lin Wanning's mother. She was gentle and beautiful, with a strong presence and an indescribable confidence.

She was about 1.6 meters tall, but when she looked down, you couldn't see her toes, and when Xu Qingfan looked up, he couldn't see her face either.

He took a small step back, finally getting a clear view of her. "Hello, Auntie. I often think of Wan Ning when I'm at home."

Lin Wanning opened his eyes wide, stood at attention like a little penguin, and looked quite cute with his blank expression.

"Xiao Fan has such a sweet tongue, no wonder he's so popular." Wen Wanqing took his hand, finding Xu Qingfan pleasing to the eye no matter how she looked at him.

After Lin Jing, Xiao Ruanwen, and Xia Xiaoxiao arrived, they exchanged a few pleasantries and then went to the registration desk to line up for registration.

The entrance exam consisted of two rounds: a written test and an interview. After submitting the application forms, once twenty people had been gathered, they were taken directly to the classroom by the teachers to take the exam.

The questions weren't difficult; they were at the level of a preschool final exam, and most kindergarten graduates should be able to answer them.

The exam lasts only ten minutes. Once the time is up, the invigilator immediately comes down to collect the papers.

After the test papers were collected, the teacher who had brought them there led them to line up again at the door, and immediately the next group of people came into the classroom to take the exam.

Xu Qingfan huddled together with Xia Xiaoxiao, Lin Wanning, and Xiao Ruanwen, asking, "Ruanwen, Wanning, did you write your names on your test papers?"

"Of course I wrote it!"

"Brother Qingfan said that we should write our names on the haircut immediately after the trial curl, and Ningning wrote her name on it right away!"

Xiao Ruanwen was unhappy that Xu Qingfan suspected her, while Lin Wanning spoke up with considerable pride.

"Yes, it's fine as long as you write your name. I just saw several test papers without names written on them. I wonder if they'll get zero points."

"Why aren't Qingfan and the others writing their names? Don't they have their own names?"

"Cough...maybe I forgot to write it."

"They have terrible memories!"

The teacher leading the group probably overheard their conversation, turned around, and smiled knowingly.

...

The group was quickly led to the indoor gymnasium, where Jiang Bianyue stopped and said, "My surname is Jiang, you can call me Teacher Jiang."

"Now, students whose names I call, come out and collect your test papers. Xu Qingfan..."

Not many people were called by name; only eight out of twenty were included, including Xu Qingfan, Xia Xiaoxiao, Xiao Ruanwen, and Lin Wanning.

After the eight of them lined up again, they were led away by another teacher to the administration building, which was probably where the interviews would be held.

Sure enough, the student at the front of the line was quickly led into the office and came out less than three minutes later, then the second student went in...

Soon it was Xu Qingfan's turn.

"Go, Qingfan!"

"Go Xiao Fan!"

"Um."

Xu Qingfan touched the poetry collection in his pocket, then pushed open the door and walked into the office.
