Hard work

Zi Lingxi knew that Liu Ningning had been working very hard to get into the best university in country t.

She said that her family's financial situation was not good, and her parents wanted her to go out of school to work to pay for her younger brother and sister's school.

However, she wanted to persist. She had begged her parents for a long time to let her finish high school.

She said that she had to seize the opportunity.

Every day, she went to bed at oneo' clock and woke up at FiveO' clock in the morning. Even when she was going to the toilet and brushing her teeth, she would memorize vocabulary.

She didn't talk much to others and spent all her time studying.

Even during the winter break and new Year, she was doing the questions.

At that time, she had really been holding back. In order to save money, she ate steamed buns and side dishes without buying anything. She had lost more than ten pounds in a year.
