Wandering among the heavens, learning has no end.

Chapter 164 Vacation

Time flew by and it was Friday afternoon after school.

In fact, elite high schools implement semi-military management and are very strict in many aspects.

However, when it comes to holidays, they really do give us any time off available.

On weekends, many public schools don't have any holidays.

When Ji Yuan was in high school in the real world, he could forget about having two days off a week. At most, he could only have a day or half a day off on Sunday.

Because it's only a day or half a day, almost none of the boarding students can go back, since half the time might be spent on the way home and back to school.

So, for Ji Yuan before, high school only had monthly breaks. In the first and second years of high school, there might be four or five days of monthly breaks, but in the third year, it was considered good to have three days a month.

Looking at it this way, elite high schools are indeed quite good in this respect.

We have a holiday starting Friday afternoon and return to school before Sunday evening self-study.

Ji Yuan had only experienced this situation during junior high school.

……

After school.

When Lin Miaomiao's father, Lin Dawei, arrived at the school gate, he was also stunned.

He thought that since the students were in high school, not many parents would come to pick them up after school, but he didn't expect that the school gate would be full of cars and parents.

After five o'clock, the students finished class and a group of students surged towards the school gate.

Ji Yuan and Lin Miaomiao traveled together.

When they came out, Ji Yuan and Lin Miaomiao swiped a student card at the door.

This is also equipment installed by elite middle schools. Students have to swipe their phones to enter and exit, and parents will immediately receive a text message after swiping.

For example, at this moment, Lin Miaomiao swiped her card.

Lin Dawei and Wang Shengnan received such a text message on their phones.

「家长您好，您的孩子林妙妙于2017年9月8日17点22分21秒离校」

Upon receiving the text message, Lin Dawei immediately looked towards the school gate.

Soon they spotted Lin Miaomiao.

Lin Miaomiao also saw Lin Dawei and immediately waved happily: "Dad!"

Lin Miaomiao immediately ran towards Lin Dawei. Ji Yuan thought it wouldn't be good for her to leave alone, so she also went over to say hello to Lin Dawei.

Lin Miaomiao ran to Lin Dawei and gave him a hug.

"Dad, do you miss me?"

"How can I not want to?"

As the two were talking, Lin Miaomiao saw Ji Yuan walking over and introduced him to them: "Hero, this is my dad. Dad, this is my buddy, Ji Yuan."

"Hello, uncle."

Ji Yuan looked at Lin Dawei and greeted him.

"Hello, hello. My daughter Miaomiao is at school. I'll have to trouble you to take care of her."

"No, Miaomiao takes good care of me."

"Alright, alright, hero, you should go back now too. Dad, let's go home quickly."

Lin Miaomiao spoke up.

She was in a hurry, eager to get back for dinner.

"Alright, Uncle, I'll be going now."

"Okay, riding a bike is safe."

As they talked, Ji Yuan rode away on his bicycle.

Lin Dawei also left with Lin Miaomiao, planning to take her on a bus ride so she would know the route.

……

On their way back, Lin Dawei asked Ji Yuan, "Are you and that classmate Ji Yuan on good terms?"

"Yeah, he's my buddy. I also have another buddy named Jiang Tianhao, and a best friend named Deng Xiaoqi."

Do you remember Deng Xiaoqi?

She was the girl who shared a dorm room with us when we started school, the one who slept in the bunk below me. You even helped her mother out.

The three of them are new friends I've made, and currently the best of friends in the entire elite high school.

Lin Miaomiao nodded and explained.

"You're a girl, why do you keep calling him 'bro'?"

"What else? Are they my best friends too? My male best friends?"

"Then you should just call him 'bro'."

Lin Dawei smiled.

Lin Dawei was initially a little worried because he thought Ji Yuan and Lin Miaomiao seemed to have a close relationship.

But then I thought, that young man is so handsome, he probably wouldn't be interested in my silly daughter who doesn't act like a girl at all.

……

Lin Miaomiao's home is indeed very far from Elite Middle School. It takes two hours to get home by bus.

The moment she arrived home, her mother treated her incredibly well.

However, it wasn't long before the two started to clash again.

Many parents are like this.

When my child isn't around, I miss them terribly. If I don't call them every day, I can't sleep at night.

They finally come back, but within a day, or at most a day, they start finding fault with everything the child does and nagging endlessly.

As soon as the child leaves, I start thinking about him again.

Lin Miaomiao and her mother Wang Shengnan are like that.

After returning, three plays were staged.

The first act: A joyous reunion.

As soon as Lin Miaomiao returned home, the mother and daughter treated each other with utmost respect and embraced each other, weeping.

This first act took place at Lin Miaomiao's house and lasted at most until after dinner.

Then comes the second act: mutual loathing.

The mother and daughter couldn't stand each other. If Lin Miaomiao didn't wash her hands before eating, she would be nagged for ages. Wang Shengnan could keep an eye on her 24 hours a day, and would start nagging if anything was wrong.

For example, if I'm reading comics in bed, they'll nag me, saying that comics get covered in bacteria during transport and that it's unhygienic to put them directly on the bed.

During this period, Wang Shengnan disliked Lin Miaomiao, and Lin Miaomiao also found Wang Shengnan annoying.

After this stage comes the third stage: reluctant parting.

This phase begins after lunch on Sundays, and Wang Shengnan starts to feel melancholy. Her child will soon be going back to school, and she won't see him for another five days. She gives him all sorts of instructions and expresses her reluctance to part with him.

……

Country garden.

After Ji Yuan came home from school, she first made dinner.

After dinner, I went to my side bedroom to prepare to record the third video.

The third video was one I had planned beforehand, featuring Zhang Bichen singing G.E.M.'s song.

Ji Yuan browsed through music apps and finally chose a song released by G.E.M. at the end of last year, "Light Years Away".

This is a relatively popular song, and it's only been out for less than a year, so covers are more likely to generate buzz.

Ji Yuan adjusted her voice, making it sound like Zhang Bichen's, and then began singing and recording.

After recording, Ji Yuan went to edit the footage.

This is the third time Ji Yuan has edited this video, and she's getting more and more skilled at it.

The video is edited and ready to be published.

Shortly after the video was posted, comments appeared below it.

"???"

"Huh? Zhang Bichen's voice?"

"Oh no, oh no! It's one thing to be able to imitate Xue Zhiqian and Mao Buyi's voices, but how can you imitate female singers' voices?!"

"What an amazing person! I'm following them!"

"Brother, is your voice really that good?!"

"..."

The data after the third video was released showed a better increase than the first two.

Given the foundation laid by the previous two videos, it's normal for this video to come up with something new.

Ji Yuan's Douyin and Bilibili accounts are also seeing a rapid increase in followers.
