Lu Yang and the rest did not speak up. They were not easy people to mess with but this time they couldn’t say anything because the facts were out there. The atmosphere became awkward.
Gu Mang laughed lightly suddenly. The ruthlessness that she hid in her beautiful eyes looked like it was about to rush out. She squinted at Gu Yin. “What’s the hurry? Shove it in my face only after the award has been given.”
Gu Yin did not say anything. She just smiled softly.
To her, Gu Mang’s reaction was just a sign of struggle. She was just trying to save herself from being humiliated. Other than Meng Jinyang and Qin Yaozhi, was there anyone else that was worth looking at in Class Twenty? The answer was obvious.
“Let’s eat,” Gu Mang said calmly as she put her arm around Meng Jinyang’s shoulders without caring about anything. Then, they walked towards the cafeteria.
Lu Yang and the others looked at Gu Yin and left without saying anything.
The deskmate shrugged her shoulders. “I don’t know what they’re acting up for? The first place student is already in our class. Indeed, other than Meng Jinyang and Qin Yaozhi, Class Twenty is still the same old Class Twenty. They can’t get anywhere.”
So what if they had scored the first in level before? The average score of Class One was at least three times as high as Class Twenty.
Gu Yin laughed. “Don’t say that. I don’t have any bad intentions. I just think that with Ms. Xi’s experience, she shouldn’t pete with our outstanding form teacher.”
“Yeah, now she’s going to get humiliated.” Gu Yin’s deskmate watched as Gu Mang and the others walked away and she found it rather funny. “Xi Yan shouldn’t have submitted her documents back then. See, she’s going to be badly embarrassed now.”
Class Twenty should just stay as the trash recycling bin. Why did they have to pete with their class?
“If the students don’t work hard, the teachers can’t do anything about it,” Gu Yin said softly. “The Principal must have given Xi Yan the award because of Meng Jinyang and Qin Yaozhi.”
“Seems to be so. Anyway, you’re still the number one student in our school,” The deskmate giggled.
Gu Yin did not answer. She just smiled. “Let’s get our milk tea.”
In the afternoon.
The entire Year Three Department was still discussing the results of the exams.
In the General Science Department of the Office.
A teacher was looking at online news and she scrolled to a piece of official information. She was stunned. “Someone actually had a perfect score on this examination?!”
“There is actually someone who can achieve a perfect score on an exam of such difficulty?” Another teacher rolled his chair towards her and stretched his neck to look at her phone screen. “That’s impossible. Up till now, there was only one person who scored a perfect score on the national joint exam.”
“I think it’s impossible as well. Let’s just talk about the language exam. Can anyone even get full marks for that so easily? The Language Department said that the questions are filled with traps. It’s not easy to get full marks,” she added.
The other teachers in the office looked over.
“It’s reported from official sources, how could it be faked?” The teacher stood up right away and showed them her phone.
The people who doubted her had clearly not seen the news.
Someone spoke again. “Someone in the Teacher’s Group Chat sent a link. It is about the student with the perfect score.”
Xi Yan looked up at them and looked at the link. There was a heated discussion in the Teacher’s Group Chat. Usually it was quiet.
“A student with a perfect score! First in the country! How many years has it been since the last time!”
“Did they only reveal the score and not the student’s name? Which province is that impressive student from?”
“Of course they have to announce this in a special way! How could they announce it so casually? This is the second time someone has achieved a perfect score!”
“There was very little information about the first person to score a perfect. It’s still very mysterious. In fact, we are still doubting if that academic god even existed.”
“Is there a third student with a perfect score?”
