"I'm heading off to school today!"
Zhang Yi stood at the door, speaking to his mom.
"Okay, my precious son. Do your best today. You have to get a good score!"
His mom stood inside, watching Zhang Yi prepare to leave, unable to resist giving him some last-minute encouragement.
"Don't worry, Mom. I've been ready for a while!" Zhang Yi replied with a smile.
After that, Zhang Yi turned and left.
Arriving at school, he was hit by a wave of familiar yet strange feelings.
In reality, it had only been a little over a month since he'd last been to school,
but it felt completely different now!
He reached his classroom.
This time, Sima Yuan had arrived even earlier than Zhang Yi.
Seeing Zhang Yi enter, Sima Yuan couldn't help but wave him over.
"What's up? You look so excited," Zhang Yi said, leaning closer.
"Hey, did you know?"
"There's a rumor going around,"
"that our homeroom teacher, Guo Aiqing, is going to transfer to the advanced class, just like some of our classmates!"
