Zhou Siyu heard these words and instantly felt a lump in her throat.
Is it so easy to just attend No. 1 High School?
With the level of education in this town, it would be strange if anyone could get into No. 1 High School.
She suppressed the discomfort in her heart and patiently explained to Zhou Lanfang, "Aunt, with my grades, at No. 1 High School, I would only be considered average. But if I were at No. 2 High School, I'd be one of the top students, valued by the teachers. It would carry just as much prestige when mentioned; why would I want to be a common blade of grass at No. 1 High School when I can be a treasured gem at No. 2 High School?"
"But everyone says that No. 1 High School is the best high school in Licheng." Zhou Lanfang was persuaded by Zhou Siyu, yet she felt that even being the worst student at No. 1 High School was a testament to ability.
Merely saying her daughter was studying at No. 1 High School was prestigious enough.
