But seeing that I barely passed each exam, she thought I was mediocre and was relieved to let me continue reading.
Gu Yixuan’s eyes flickered, and images from that time flooded his mind.
"Books helped me a lot, I learned many things from them.
I have a great memory, almost photographic. I can always apply what I’ve read. I even secretly got up in the middle of the night, trying to stand and rehabilitate my leg muscles.
