"The monthly test scores have come out. I will now announce the class rankings."
Tuesday, 9: 30 AM: Class 2's form teacher stood at the lectern with a sullen expression as he slapped the name list in his hands.
"Disappointing! You all have disappointed me!
You are the worst batch of students I've ever taught!
You're terrible! "
Chen Yu, who sat in a corner of the room, laughed.
Based on the form teacher's angry expression, Chen Yu could easily tell that Chen Yu's results for this monthly test should be above the 25th place in the class.
Otherwise, the form teacher would've long since laughed until his face turned into an emoticon.
"I've already told you all the required questions before the monthly test!
Not yet!
Not yet!
Are you all the reincarnation of a husky?! "
Hearing the form teacher's curses, Chen Yu shook his head, feeling that a high school teacher's words were too much.
Huskies might have low IQ, but at least they were handsome...
"Rotten wood cannot be carved!
I can't even find a few buckets of feces! "
Closing his eyes, the form teacher took a deep breath and calmed his emotions. Raising the name list, he gnashed his teeth and said, "First place, Zhen Congming, 334 points."
"Ouch!"
As soon as the form teacher finished speaking, a boy with gold-rimmed glasses sitting in the front row punched the table in regret. "I didn't get full marks again!"
Squinting at the boy, the form teacher said, "Full marks, 650 points."
"That's right. What a pity." Zhen Congming was both proud and depressed.
"Teacher, what's my ranking in the whole school?" he asked as he pushed his glasses up his nose.
“77。”
"That's good. You made it into the top 100. You've won honor for our class."
"I thank you on behalf of the entire class."
"There's no need for that. This is what I should do as a study commissary."
Rolling his eyes, the form teacher looked at the second place on the name list.
As soon as he saw this name, he felt as if he had swallowed a fly.
"S-Second place, Chen Yu, 333 points."
The instant this name appeared, the entire class fell silent...
Only Chen Yu pointed at himself in shock. Incredulously, he asked, "Me?"
"You."
Rubbing his face, the form teacher said, "Second place."
Chen Yu: "..."
The form teacher: "We underestimated your learning ability."
Chen Yu: "... No!
I overestimated their learning ability... "
"This class is terrible!"
"I really understand you now, really …"
…
Ring, ring, ring …
Two seconds after the bell rang, Chen Yu's seat was immediately surrounded by his classmates.
"Chen Yu!
Awesome! "
"F * ck!
Second in class!
How did you do it? "
"He actually suppressed the goddess of the class?"
"You're in the top 100 of the school!
Aren't you going to treat us to some Spicy Gluten? "
Looking at the shocked and excited expressions on his classmates' faces, Chen Yu vaguely felt that he was indeed very "awesome."
"So … from now on, I'm the top student?"
"Brother Chen!" Li Liang, who sat in front of Chen Yu, grabbed onto his shoulders and shook him excitedly. "How did you do it?
He actually got second place in the class?!
Did he cheat? "
"No." Shrugging, Chen Yu said, "I just realized how easy it was to pass the 300-point barrier."
Hearing that, all the students, including Li Liang, revealed looks of disdain.
"Brother Chen, you've just become a straight-A student, and you're already acting like one?"
Chen Yu: "..."
"Student Chen Yu."
At this time, a cold voice came from outside the circle. In the next moment, Zhen Congming walked toward Chen Yu with cat-like steps. Standing before Chen Yu, he pushed on his glasses and said, "I never thought that you would catch up to me in just a month."
Chen Yu: "..."
"There are no shortcuts to learning. I believe you must have suffered a lot with me as your goal, right?"
Chen Yu: "..."
"Diligence makes up for one's shortcomings. Your results and efforts have earned my respect.
You have also earned the respect of all the members of Class 2's elite study group.
Now, I officially invite Student Chen Yu to join Class 2's study group.
From now on, there will be another force in Sixth High's top 100! "
After saying so, Zhen Congming pulled out his phone and opened up a WeChat QR code. "Scan me.
I'll add you into the group. "
Chen Yu's body itched from the awkwardness. However, he still politely pulled out his phone and added Zhen Congming on WeChat. "It's an honor."
"I didn't give you glory. You earned it yourself."
"Yes, yes, yes."
"Don't be arrogant and discouraged after obtaining good results. Continue working hard and climb to the peak!"
"Yes, yes, yes."
"As an excellent study commissary, I feel that I have been a very successful role model. I have inspired your fighting spirit."
"Yes, yes, yes."
"Since you've become a good student, don't hang out with those bad students anymore. It's beneath your dignity."
"Yes, yes, yes."
"However, I won't go easy on you during the next monthly test."
Flicking his bangs with his fingers that he thought looked handsome, Zhen Congming revealed a smile and said, "I hope you can defeat me one day.
I'll wait for you at the top of Mount Tai. "
[Wait for me in the morgue, then …]
Chen Yu inwardly cursed. However, on the surface, he put on a friendly expression and said, "Okay, okay, okay."
After Zhen Congming left, just as Chen Yu was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he discovered that the surrounding students were looking at him as if he were a class enemy …
Shuddering uncomfortably, Chen Yu hurriedly picked up his bag and left the classroom. He then ran toward the principal's office on the top floor.
"Principal!
The results are out!
Honor your bet — "
As soon as Chen Yu pushed open the wooden door to the headmaster's office, he started yelling in delight. However, halfway through his words, he noticed that there were five other adults in the office. Momentarily stunned, he quickly bowed and apologized, "I'm sorry for disturbing you.
I didn't know you were having a meeting. I'll leave now.
Sorry for disturbing you. "
"Chen Yu!
Don't go! "
Principal Pang's eyes lit up when he saw Chen Yu. He hurriedly stepped forward and held Chen Yu's hand. He then turned to the five guests and said enthusiastically, "This student is Sixth High's most outstanding student. His name is Chen Yu.
He specializes in sports and has the potential to become our country's new track and field champion!
Chen Yu, quickly greet these five people. They are leaders from Beijing. "
"L-Greetings, leaders."
Facing the four men and one woman, Chen Yu awkwardly bowed.
His instincts told him that there was something wrong with these five people — they had too much temperament.
They were calm, steady, and confident.
"Principal, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first.
Please go ahead. "
"I'm not busy. Why did you come looking for me?"
"Isn't it because my results are out?
I'm here to honor my bet, "Chen Yu said, shrugging proudly." Second in class and 78th in the entire school.
I've far surpassed the top 25, right?
Principal Pang, you should be willing to accept your loss. "
At the mention of Chen Yu, a gloomy glint flashed across Principal Pang's eyes.
He had thought more than once that Chen Yu would get good results. However, he never thought that Chen Yu would actually get second place in class!
Were all the students in Class 2 eating sh * t?!
"Second place in class!"
The middle-aged man leading the group of five guests grew interested. After scrutinizing Chen Yu, he said, "Fellow student, you are a sports student, yet your academic results are so good. It's not easy.
Second place in class and 78th in the entire school. How many points did you get? "
"333," Chen Yu replied.
"Oh, amazing. What's the full score?"
“650。”
Everyone: "…"
After a brief moment of silence, the middle-aged man scratched his head awkwardly and said, "A full score of 650 points. I got 333 points, 78th in the school … Um … Was the test difficult?"
"Not at all.
It was much easier than the normal college entrance exam. In the past, you could easily get into the top 50 with just 300 points. "
The corners of the middle-aged man's mouth twitched. "… So, your school teaches excavators?"
