When they meet the river, they will tighten their backpacks and make sure that their bullets and guns are well protected. Then, they would enter a river that might have an unknown danger waiting for them and swim across it.
When they came out of the river, it was already dark. They found the marshland and rested in their wet clothes.
There's no fire here. There was no hot water either so the food they ate was all raw. They can eat mushrooms and wild fruits. They are even willing to eat raw meat to satiate the stomach.
Ye Jian never complained about his predicament. He never took a step back either. He was someone who always moved forward as he chased after the sun.
They walked through many mountains and climbed many cliffs. Finally, they managed to complete over ten forms of training.
The journey was dangerous but they were not hurt. This was the first time Ye Jian had come to the forest. So without Principal Chen's experience, he knew that he would not be able to leave this place alive.
However, he got used to the environment in the forest quickly. There were a few accidents in the first half of the month but after that, he could move through the forest like a leopard.
When they came out of the forest in May, they looked like two barbarians.
"Do you have proper clothes?" The climate in Beihai is pleasant. Grandpa Gen is in good health. He looked at the two people wearing tattered clothes in front of him and sighed. “You look like a pair of beggars coming out to ask for food. If you're not clean enough, no one wants to pick you up.”
Ye Jian put down his backpack. He laughed and replied, “You were right. When we just got on the bus after leaving the mountain, everyone on the bus thought we were beggars.”
Grandpa Gen rents a room at a holiday resort near Beihai. He paid a large sum of money each month for the rent so that he could wait for Ye Jian and School Head Chen to come out.
Ye Jian rested at the holiday resort until his mosquito bite healed. Then, he recovered his body using a medicinal bath. He waited until his skin was bright and smooth back before returning to Fujun City.
There are still 20 days before the final exam. After Ye Jian returned to Fujun City, he appeared in Grade One of Grade Nine the next day.
When he was in ninth grade last time, his classmates were still in eighth grade.
He was one level higher than them but when the teacher took him to class, all the students became silent.
After some time, they began to discuss amongst themselves.
“Isn't this.. Ye Jian? Why is he here?”
“She tore the notification letter in front of the vice principal last time. Did he repeat a year?”
"Thul? That's not possible! Even if he wanted to repeat that year, he should have done it a year ago.”
The shape of the grade teacher received orders from his superiors so he simply smiled and introduced Ye Jian. “Everything, please be quiet. This Ye Jian. I'm sure you all know him. He'll be part of our class from now on. Please welcome him back.”
The applause sounded very loud. The students were all curious about this legendary senior.
After the applause ended, the shape teacher smiled again. “If you have any questions about your schoolwork, you can ask Ye Jian. I'm sure he'll be able to help you even if he leaves school for a year. ”
Even after he had been gone for a year, Ye Jian was still a good disciple in the eyes of the teachers from Fujun City.
The students in the class looked at Ye Jian who was standing next to the teacher on the podium. For some reason, they did not dare to look him in the eye.
The students are a little scared. When some of them met Ye Jian's gaze, they hurriedly avoided him. Cold sweat appeared on their backs.
Ye Jian just wanted to go back to school and take his exams calmly. If he met someone who had other thoughts, he would not mind giving them a warning.
He looked relaxed as he stood on the podium. The students cried out in their hearts. As expected of a top student. He was not stressed when he stood next to a teacher.
Also, everyone agreed that this legendary figure was even more beautiful now.
The moment Ye Jian arrived back at school, he caused a huge commotion.
He used half the lesson to memorize the names of all his classmates, By the time the lesson ended, he could call out the names of his classmates as if they were old friends.
"No. I just felt that I was not suitable to enter High School so I took a year off.” Ye Jian explained why he tore his notification letter to his classmates who were younger than him.
The explanation is more persuasive than the rumor. Also, Ye Jian spoke naturally. His point of view and experience allowed him to integrate into his class on the first day of school.
That day, after school ended, Ye Jian met a teacher he knew. She's a former teacher of his form, Mrs. Catch.
But he is no longer a teacher. He is the owner of a vegetable shop now. He had to submit to people to make a living.
Ye Jian did not slow down when he recognized him. When he heard Madam Ke arguing with the customer from afar, he smiled.
Madam Ke was someone who did not know how to take a step back. Therefore, after he left the school, he would achieve nothing.
There was no need for him to boast in front of Madam Ke. He is not worthy of attention.
The one who was most surprised by Ye Jian's arrival was Mayor Ye. He is now the leader of the city.
These two years, Ye Zhifan had a smooth career. He was promoted after sitting in the position of mayor for two years. Hence, he no longer worried about Ye Jian.
Also, Sun Dongqing lived with their daughter in the provincial city so Ye Zhifan never returned to the village in the past year. He had no idea that Ye Jian, whom he thought was no longer a threat, had returned to school.
After he returned from a week of conferences in the city, Ye Jian had already been in school for one week.
Ye Zhifan pondered for a moment. He smiled coldly before calling. “Hu Tua, you are in charge of the exam script for all the students this year, right? You think…"
He lowered his voice. The crickets on the tree chirped and covered his voice. The smile on his face was fake.
Once the university entrance exam in June is completed, it will be the high school entrance exam. Ye Jian's name was among the candidates. The examinee purposely walked past him so that they could see this legendary figure.
“We don't know if he can pass. Anyway, he's taking the exam back. ”
"I knew. After all, he was a smart man. If he gets good grades for all his exams, he might be able to get into a good SMA.”
“It will be difficult. Students who repeat do not have results for biology and geography. It's hard to pass with just a grade from two days of the exam unless she gets a full grade for everything.”
