Chapter 146 Of course we're still sleeping in the first bedroom, silly boy.
School life gradually returned to normal, and the students were all working hard to prepare for the next exam.
Zhou Heng and Yin Mengran were the same; they focused on studying every day and stayed home every weekend to study.
Their relationship was getting better and better, and they would occasionally have a passionate kiss...
Aside from that, they didn't proceed to the next step because they had an agreement, and Zhou Heng didn't want to break that agreement.
More than twenty days passed in this way, and the next monthly exam arrived.
Zhou Heng was much more confident than last time, so he took the exam with ease and wasn't nervous at all.
On the contrary, Yin Mengran was very nervous because she wanted to do better on the exam! She wanted to be number one in her grade...
A day or two after the exam, on the night before the results were released,
Yin Mengran and Zhou Heng lay in bed. Yin Mengran leaned against Zhou Heng's chest, playing on her phone and chatting with Tang Zhi. Zhou Heng was also playing mobile games. The two were very comfortable.
Just then, a message notification popped up on Yin Mengran's phone screen. Upon seeing the message, Yin Mengran's eyes widened in surprise.
"Honey, have you finished your exams?"
Yin Mengran quickly replied:
"Yes, Mom, the results will be out tomorrow."
The person who sent her the message was Liu Wei, Zhou Heng's mother!
Liu Wei hadn't spoken to her since the last monthly exam; this time, a month had passed between their last contact.
During this past month, she and Zhou Heng have been together, and a lot has happened...
However, it seems Mom doesn't know about this yet...
After a while, Liu Wei replied to her:
"【Okay! I'll come to your house tomorrow, wait for your good news, give you living expenses, and also show you your new home. I'll rent a new place for you; the current place is too small.】"
Yin Mengran looked at the message on the screen, then turned and handed the phone to Zhou Heng, saying:
"Mom sent a message, take a look..."
"what?"
Zhou Heng frowned slightly, glanced at it, nodded, and said, "It's fine. This house is indeed a bit small for the two of us. It's good to move to a different place."
"So... now that we've moved to a new house, does that mean we'll have two bedrooms? Then we..."
Yin Mengran hesitated, her biggest worry being sleeping separately from Zhou Heng...
She has been sleeping with Zhou Heng for over a month now and has become dependent on him. If she can't sleep with Zhou Heng at night, she will definitely have insomnia!
Zhou Heng smiled slightly, gently pinched Yin Mengran's cheek, and said:
"Of course we're still sleeping in the same bedroom, silly boy."
Hearing Zhou Heng's words, Yin Mengran smiled broadly and felt relieved.
"Hehe, okay~"
Yin Mengran and Liu Wei chatted for a few more minutes before ending their conversation.
It was only then that Zhou Heng realized a very important problem.
Since my mother is coming tomorrow...
Should I tell Yin Mengran about my relationship with her?
If I don't tell her, will Yin Mengran and I have to pretend we're not a couple and keep our distance tomorrow?
With this question in mind, the two turned off the lights and drifted off to sleep.
The next day at school, Zhou Heng sat down and told Tang Zhi about it.
"Oh, Auntie's coming today?"
"Yeah, grades are a small matter. The key question is, should I tell her about my relationship with Yin Mengran?"
Zhou Heng sighed helplessly, somewhat melancholy.
Tang Zhi didn't think it was anything to worry about at all. She shrugged and said:
"It's up to you whether you tell her or not. Your aunt is very smart. Even if you don't tell her, she'll definitely find out. Do you believe me?"
Zhou Heng nodded silently, stroked his chin, and muttered, "You're right... then it's better to just be honest, there shouldn't be any problem, right? By the way! You should..."
Zhou Heng looked at Tang Zhi and continued:
"If you come with us tonight, it will be easier for me to speak frankly if you're there to help me out and say some nice things."
"I don't care, anything is fine, I don't have anything to do tonight anyway."
In the afternoon, the results of this monthly exam were released, and the report cards were distributed to everyone.
Zhou Heng glanced at his ranking and was somewhat surprised!
He knew he would improve even more this time; he could tell from his performance on the questions.
But I didn't expect such significant progress!
He ranked 168th in the grade in the last monthly exam, but this time he ranked 89th!
I've made it into the top 100 in my grade!
You know, before the last monthly exam, he was ranked 233rd in the grade! That's near the bottom!
After nearly two months and two monthly exams, he entered the top 100 in his grade!
The teachers all told them that as long as they get into the top 100 in their grade and their studies don't decline, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they're basically guaranteed a place in university!
"Wow—amazing! My aunt will be so happy now, won't she?"
When Tang Zhi saw Zhou Heng's results, she exclaimed in amazement and gave him a thumbs up.
Tang Zhi glanced at her grades; she was second in her class.
He rose from 6th in the grade to 3rd!
She wasn't surprised at all by the result; she simply smiled faintly.
She focused more on her studies because of Yin Mengran's influence; she wanted to achieve similar grades to Yin Mengran.
The most nervous one was Yin Mengran. After seeing her report card,
He covered it with his hand, wanting to see it little by little...
But before she could remove her hand...
The homeroom teacher, Ms. Wang, walked in with the report cards, her face beaming with joy, and went up to the podium.
"Come on! Let's give a round of applause to our class monitor, Yin Mengran! Congratulations on becoming the top student in the grade!"
"Clap--"
In an instant, enthusiastic applause erupted in the classroom.
Yin Mengran paused for a moment, moved her hand away, and looked at the first column.
My ranking in the grade is... number one!
"yeah!"
A sweet smile spread across her face, and she cheered, genuinely happy.
The next second, she turned her head to look in the direction of Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi, and smiled back—a gentle, radiant smile.
Zhou Heng and Tang Zhi were both happy for her, smiling and clapping for her. Zhou Heng even had a look of pride on his face.
After all, Yin Mengran was his girlfriend. Having his girlfriend ranked first in the grade was even more gratifying than being first himself; it would earn him envious glances from others.
Teacher Wang also looked at Zhou Heng and continued:
"There's another person, Zhou Heng, who has made tremendous progress! He deserves praise!"
