Chen Chen said to Zhu Yanyi, "Ani, you can see Sister An Nan."
Zhu Yanyi nodded. "I wonder if my sister will come to watch."
Their relaxed mood made Teacher Gao smile too. "She probably will. The judges will be teachers from City No. 1 Middle School and city officials. The audience will be their students."
"How many from our school are going?" Zhu Yanyi asked.
Teacher Gao replied, "We have five spots. You two, plus one from each other class. That makes five. The principal will take you."
Zhu Yanyi and Chen Chen nodded. "If there is nothing else, we will go now."
Teacher Gao smiled and advised, "Do not feel pressured."
Chen Chen snorted. He did not care about this match at all. "Teacher Gao, you underestimate us. Would this match stress us out? You worry too much. Relax, we are easygoing."
Teacher Gao still felt a bit worried but said nothing. After all, they had taught themselves college courses. Junior high knowledge was nothing to them. If it was nothing, they did not need to be nervous. She also felt happy. Her class had two geniuses. This meant two students would definitely enter high school in three years. Likely key high schools.
After leaving the practice chamber, Zhu Yanyi and Chen Chen went back to their dorms. Zhu Yanyi forgot about the matter immediately. The event on September 3rd did not need worrying about now.
"Little Eight, you are back." An Xiaoxiao spoke when she saw Zhu Yanyi. "Do you have food? I am so hungry. It is only ten o'clock. Dinner starts at eleven."
Zhu Yanyi smiled. "Yes, I brought snacks. Wait a moment." She grabbed her luggage bag and pulled out a pile of snacks. "If Old Seven did not ask, I would almost forget. I rarely eat snacks. My godmother bought them. Let us share."
The other seven did not hesitate. They started opening the packages. Gao Xia opened a bag of creamy peanuts. She ate one and asked, "Godmother? Little Eight, is your godmother Chen Chen’s mother? Are your families close?"
Zhu Yanyi nodded with a smile. "My father and godfather have known each other for a long time. My godfather has no daughters, so she took me and my sister as goddaughters. We are real relatives."
Chen Fei chewed on a sweet potato strip. "Your bond must be very strong."
"We grew up together. It is like being real siblings," Zhu Yanyi said with a smile.
"I envy Little Eight. Having relatives in the same school. Especially in the same class," Wang Dan’er said. She took the sweet potato strip from Chen Fei and bit into it.
An Ni nodded. Her mouth was full of mung bean cake. Her cheeks puffed out like a little hamster. She looked very cute.
Zhu Yanyi smiled slightly. "Being together is fate. Even if not family, we are friends. Look how good I am to you. I give you snacks and help you study. Why envy me?"
