Mei Shu was a little surprised. In her previous life, there was no such banquet. It was just that when she celebrated her 18th birthday after the college entrance examination, the Mei family held a birthday banquet for her. It was a banquet that completely changed her fate, causing her to be unable to make a comeback no matter what she did later.
Mei Shu lowered her eyes to hide the hatred in them. After a few seconds, she looked up at Wang Yue's smiling face and replied softly, "Thank you, Aunt Wang."
After the meal, the car that Mei Shu and the others were in stopped at the school gate. Mei Mu opened the car door and strode forward while Mei Shu strolled slowly behind.
[Congratulations, Master, for completing the mission of obtaining 100,000 Yuan! +10 points. The skill "There Is A Gold House in the Book" activated.]
[What kind of skill is this?]
[Master, this is good stuff! From today onwards, you will receive monetary rewards every time you finish a test paper!]
Mei Shu's eyes lit up. This skill was indeed good!
[Master, there's a time-limited mission! Find an instrument in two minutes and play it successfully.]
Mei Shu's joy was broken in less than a minute.
[It takes 2 minutes to run from here to the Music Building of the school, and the key is that the Music Building is still closed at this time. I can't make it. It's impossible! It's asking too much of me! Worst case scenario, I'll lose thirty points.]
Mei Shu had accumulated a lot of points, so now she didn't mind having some points deducted.
[Master! This skill reward is very useful for what you'll encounter next. Trust me!]
Upon hearing this, Mei Shu had to start thinking of a solution and looked around. When she saw the leaves on the trees in the greenbelt along the road, she got an idea.
Mei Shu quickly picked a leaf from the roadside greenery, wiped off the dust, put it to her lips, pursed her lips and blew, then used her lungs to push the air out. After a few tries, she finally made a sound in Little Eight's countdown.
When seeing this insane deadline for the task, Xiao Ba began to tacitly approve of Mei Shu's behavior of finding loopholes.
[Master, I have to say you are really quick-witted! Congratulations on completing the task. You earned 10 points, and the Piano Melody Lingering skill is now activated.]
Mei Shu's piano proficiency had already reached level 6 before she went to the countryside, and now the newly acquired skill instantly brought her to the maximum level of piano playing.
[Master, although you've unlocked the skill, you still need some initial adjustments, so you should find time to practice the piano when you're free.]
Mei Shu, although not planning to become an art student, still took the acquisition of the skill seriously as mentioned by Little Eight. "The music room is open to students for an hour at noon. I'll go there to practice then."
As Mei Shu was about to go up the stairs, she ran into Lu Yan. She smiled and greeted him, "Good morning, Lu Yan."
Lu Yan responded with a smile in his eyes, "Good morning. Are you still adjusting to the new class? And the teaching style of the teacher?""
With so many people and so many things going on, Mei Shu felt that the current mode of getting along with most of her classmates without interfering with each other is quite good. "It's been good. I just didn't pay attention in class when I was in the countryside. But I borrowed some notes from a classmate and just caught up in the past two weeks."
Lu Yan didn't expect Mei Shu to be so frank about her experience in the countryside. The little girl who used to cry when she was wronged has grown up after all. He couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Then he remembered that Mei Shu had never been good at logical thinking since she was a child, so he teased her, "It's not going to be of much use even if you copy the notes for math."
Mei Shu felt a little embarrassed and rubbed her nose. It turned out that there were no secrets when they grew up together. She did manage to do some of the questions arranged by the math teacher, but sometimes she couldn't even finish three questions in a class, and spent most of the time flipping through the book to understand the concepts. Simply asking questions during breaks was too slow for progress.
Mei Shu told him about her situation and sighed. "Math is too difficult!"
Seeing Mei Shu's expression, Lu Yan chuckled lightly, "Let's go to the knowledge-sharing space in the library during lunchtime. I'll help you sort out the concepts."
Mei Shu was waiting for these words. She smiled brightly and said, "Okay!"
Their classrooms were on different floors, so Mei Shu and Lu Yan said goodbye and went their separate ways.
Mei Mu was on the phone in the corridor and happened to see Mei Shu and Lu Yan chatting downstairs. She had been anxious about not being able to get close to Lu Yan, and plus the new and old grudges with Mei Shu over the past half month, she felt that she couldn't hold it in any longer. She couldn't wait for the party that Wang Yue was preparing anymore, or she would suffocate with the anger that had been brewing in her for the past half month!
When Mei Mu saw Mei Shu come in, she gestured with her eyes to Li Hua.
