So it's a physical reason?
Song Minggui suppressed his slight surprise, then looked in Song Yunshen's direction. Seeing him nod, he asked again, "Why didn't you say so on the day of the exam?"
"My stomach hurt during the exam, and I thought it would go away if I just endured it," Xia Kening lied. "It stopped hurting after the exam, but then it started hurting again during the physics and chemistry exams in the afternoon."
"I felt better after taking some medicine when I got home, so I didn't say anything."
"Anyway, I can just do better on the next exam."
Perhaps because she often chatted with Song Yunshen, Xia Kening's imitation of Song Yunshen's tone of voice was quite convincing.
Actually, she was terrified, fearing that Song Minggui would take out the test paper and make her do it on the spot.
Song Minggui simply nodded. "I understand, but if something like this happens again, you must tell the teacher."
"Mmm." Xia Kening nodded quickly.
As for Song Minggui, he naturally knew that this result was definitely not Song Yunshen's true level, and the physical reason was understandable.
As for his previous threat to beat him up if he didn't do well on the exam, Song Minggui himself had forgotten it, only Song Yunshen remembered it and used it to scare Xia Kening.
I got out of the office without incident.
The two walked together toward the cafeteria, intending to have lunch together.
On the way, Xia Kening would steal glances at Xia Yunuo every now and then, still feeling shocked.
She still doesn't understand what her second sister means.
She wouldn't admit to liking Song Yunshen, but if you said she didn't, she would speak up for him, have meals with him, and even go on a date with him on Saturday.
If she were to ask her now, as Song Yunshen, whether she liked her, I wonder how Second Sister would react.
Xia Kening felt inexplicably excited when she thought about this, but she quickly gave up the idea.
It's someone else's body after all, so it's best not to cause any trouble.
She only thought about it in her mind; she still had her bottom line when it came to doing things.
At this moment, Xia Yunuo was walking beside Song Yunshen. She had finally gotten over the tension from earlier and was about to reach the cafeteria when she suddenly realized something.
Since this morning, it seems I haven't heard Song Yunshen thoughts at all.
She was so worried about Song Yunshen's grades that she overlooked this matter.
Only after finally resolving the problem for him did Xia Yunuo suddenly realize the situation.
Why can't they hear each other even though they're so close?
Logically speaking, it should be easy to hear at this distance.
Thinking this way, Xia Yunuo, still somewhat skeptical, moved a little closer to Song Yunshen.
She almost touched Song Yunshen's arm.
Xia Kening, who was standing to the side, was also particularly sensitive to the distance between herself and others. She immediately noticed Xia Yunuo's actions and became even more shocked.
Second sister, what do you mean by this?!
It's one thing for Song Yunshen to take advantage of you, but why did you have to come closer to him yourself?
Wait, wait... you two haven't even been holding hands in private, have you?
When has my second sister ever been so proactive?
Xia Kening was starting to wonder if her second sister had also swapped souls with someone else, otherwise how could she be so different from the second sister she remembered?
Song Yunshen must have brainwashed her!
Xia Yunuo blushed slightly as well. She moved a little closer, then pulled away again, bringing the two of them back to about two fists' width apart.
I still can't hear it...
Xia Yunuo was troubled, but not as disappointed as she had been last time.
Having already experienced a precedent, Xia Yunuo was somewhat mentally prepared.
If I can hear Song Yunshen's thoughts again tomorrow, it means that this ability has a certain downtime.
I just don't know what the pattern is.
Since it was only the second time she couldn't hear her inner voice, Xia Yunuo couldn't figure anything out and could only comfort herself in her heart.
At least she no longer felt the same subconscious resistance and alienation towards Song Yunshen as she had last time because she couldn't hear his inner voice.
After all... they're already friends.
It's okay if you can't hear your own thoughts for the time being.
afternoon.
Song Yunshen continued attending classes while in Xia Kening's body. He answered the teacher's questions in math class and effortlessly helped Xia Kening maintain her third-place ranking in the grade.
As soon as class ended, Xu Lingcheng, who had been moved to another group by Ruan Zheng, came running over eagerly, shamelessly asking about the questions on the math test.
"Didn't the teacher already cover this in class?" Song Yunshen looked at Xu Lingcheng, whose flirting tactics were so obvious, and waved his hand, saying, "If you don't understand, just ask the teacher."
"I think you explained it more clearly," Xu Lingcheng said earnestly. "You're really amazing; your grades have improved so much all of a sudden. I want to learn from you in the future."
"Then what?"
"I like you."
"What exactly do you like about me?" Song Yunshen asked, clutching his head in anguish.
"Your perseverance, your dedication," Xu Lingcheng said sincerely, "I remember everything you said in your speech today; it really moved me."
Song Yunshen: "..."
Hearing Xu Lingcheng say that, Song Yunshen couldn't keep his expression in check and quickly covered his face with his hands to prevent Xu Lingcheng from seeing him laughing hysterically.
Wow, this guy is so weird.
He really couldn't take it anymore.
Hahahaha!
Song Yunshen thought that the speech incident was over.
When Xu Lingcheng brought it up again, Song Yunshen simply couldn't hold back anymore.
His shoulders were shaking from laughing.
Finally, he waved his hands repeatedly, barely managing to suppress his smile, before saying to Xu Lingcheng, "I was just saying that casually. Actually, I was just lucky; there was no perseverance or experience involved."
"That's true humility!" Xu Lingcheng exclaimed, deeply moved. "I'll definitely learn from you and strive to get into Ningjiang Middle School with you!"
"Yes, yes, if you can get into Ningjiang Middle School, I might think more highly of you." Song Yunshen sighed, "So, can you please stop bothering me?"
"I wouldn't call this harassment, would I? I was just asking a question," Xu Lingcheng said awkwardly.
"Roll."
"All right..."
Looking at Xu Lingcheng's lonely figure, Song Yunshen sighed helplessly, wondering when this soul-swapping would ever end.
If you switch roles and are immediately sexually harassed by men, who could stand that?
No, he needs to take a shower tonight.
I feel like I'm losing out if I don't get any interest back.
Meanwhile, on the other side...
During the third period in the afternoon, Jiang Wenpei walked into the classroom of Class 5, Grade 11, carrying her final exam paper and water bottle.
Xu Zhuoyue sat upright, looking at the English test paper in front of him and muttering to himself, seemingly lost in thought.
"Why are you so nervous?" Xia Kening noticed Xu Zhuoyue's unusual behavior and asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Aren't you nervous?" Xu Zhuoyue glanced at the composed Song Yunshen and couldn't help but remind him, "Have you forgotten what Peipei told us yesterday? She'll definitely call our names in class today, and if you can't answer, you'll have to stand for the whole period!"
"Oh." Xia Kening shook her head dismissively upon hearing this. "What's there to be afraid of?"
"Oh ho, you're pretty arrogant, aren't you?" Xu Zhuoyue sneered. "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you got a passing score of 90. In the end, you're only two points higher than me, aren't you?"
Xia Kening smiled slightly, her face full of confidence. "Then you'll soon realize that the difference between passing and failing is quite significant."
