Chapter 41: Top of the School
When Lin Xiaowan linked the surge in Su Linâs grades to the power of love, she couldnât stay calm anymore. Her mind was in turmoil. On one hand, she had promised her parents not to date until after college. On the other, she was curious about the true power of love. Among her acquaintances, Su Lin was the only suitable option for exploring this feeling.
Lin Xiaowan, clear about her feelings, knew her emotions towards Su Lin were different. She couldnât be sure if it was love, but she wasnât averse to the idea of dating him. Once she realized this, her heart was in disarray, as Su Lin had unknowingly carved a niche in her heart. It wasnât a significant position yet, but like a sprouting seedling, it could grow into a towering tree.
âStudent Ye Fengâs steps for this question are completely correct. Now can you say that Student Ye Fengâs results are his own?â
âThis question was solved correctly by Ye Feng. Can we now agree his score was earned fairly?â the teacher said. âSome students should stop being prejudiced. The fact proves that with hard work, anyone can achieve good results, no matter their starting point.â
âYe Feng, you can sit down. I recognize your score. If anyone still accuses you of cheating, send them to my office,â the teacher added.
Ye Feng sat down calmly, without any hint of excess emotion, impressing Wang Yi once again. He turned his eyes to Su Lin. His goal had never been Feng Yifei, nor Yan Huan. His goal was to defeat Su Lin and completely defeat him in the place that Su Lin was proud of.
âStudent Lin Xiaowan, you sit down too.â
Lin Xiaowan stood in place and did not move.
âStudent Lin Xiaowan⦠Lin Xiaowanâ¦â
âAh! Teacher Wang.â Lin Xiaowan came back to her senses, and her eyes were somewhat evasive. She did not dare to look at Wang Yi.
âYou sit down.â
âOh, oh, oh, okay.â Lin Xiaowan once again glared at Su Lin fiercely, making Su Lin puzzled again.
âXiaowan, whatâs wrong with you?â
âWe are in class, donât talk.â
Seeing this, Su Lin nodded and did not say anything else.
Lin Xiaowan gazed at Su Linâs profile, thinking, âI have to admit, this guy is really handsome. How did I not notice before? Is it like what they say in books, about not realizing it sooner?â
She considered herself mature, not keen on dating because her classmates, especially the boys, seemed immature, always discussing games or novels. But as she spent more time with Su Lin, she realized he was quite mature, humorous, and capable in serious situations, surpassing his peers. Lin Xiaowan felt that she couldnât go on like this, but she couldnât help but think about Su Lin.
After Wang Yi finished handing out the test papers, he left. Not long after, the Chinese teacher came. After a round of platitudes, they continued to distribute the test papers.
âOur class did pretty well in the Chinese exam this time. There were three students in our class who got 130 in the whole grade.â
âSu Lin⦠146.â
âF*ck ⦠Is there still justice in Literature 146? Su Lin, this guy, is really cheating.â
âNot only did he get full marks in mathematics, he even got such a high score in Chinese. Is there any justice in this world?â
âYeah, this time Su Lin is going to get first place in the whole school.â
Yu Min frowned and said, âQuiet down. Su Linâs Chinese exam paper was modified by me. He could have gotten full marks. However, although this exam was a monthly exam, we reviewed it according to the standards of the college entrance exam, so we gave him 56 points. The composition was very standard, but too standard would also result in a deduction. Su Lin, do you understand what I mean?â
Su Lin nodded. âI understand, Ms. Yu.â
âMhmm! Go back and read more to supplement your essay. â
âLin Xiaowan⦠138.â
âXia Shiyu⦠130.â
âYe Feng⦠124.â
âYan Huan⦠120.â
When Ye Fengâs results came out, it caused a discussion among the students in the class. However, this time it was much quieter than before. Ye Feng had used his ability to prove that his results were his own and not copied. At this time, Yan Huan and Feng Yifeiâs faces began to turn ugly.
Because Ye Feng had surpassed Yan Huan in mathematics and Chinese, if he couldnât pull back his score in English and Science, then they would be the ones running laps on the field.
âTake the exam paper back and look at the wrong questions. How did you get it wrong? Weâll talk about this tomorrow.â
After Yu Min left, the English teacher also came and unsurprisingly, Su Lin got full marks again. Â Su Lin once again enjoyed the envious looks of everyone, but he didnât care at all. This result was normal for him. It couldnât be helped. He had a comprehensive grasp of knowledge. As long as it wasnât a college question, he could answer it.
After the Science results came out, Su Linâs total score was also released. 746, first place in the whole school. Other than Chinese, which had four points deducted, he got full marks in all other subjects. This time, many teachers looked at Su Lin differently.
They looked as if they wanted to eat Su Lin alive. It couldnât be helped. If Su Lin maintained this result, then he was very likely to be the top science student in Jiangnan Province. Similarly, Ye Feng and Yan Huanâs total scores were also released. Ye Feng with a score of 664 was seventh in class, Yan Huan with a score of 642 was eleventh in class.
After school!!! The field was already full of people. The bet between Ye Feng, Yan Huan, and Feng Yifei had already spread among the third-year students. Therefore, after school, many students didnât leave.
Walking with Xia Shiyu and Lin Xiaowan, Su Lin noticed Xiaowanâs strange behavior, her eyes darting away whenever they met his. Su Lin, experienced in relationships, recognized the signs of attraction. Su Lin wasnât a virgin. When he was on Earth, he had a few relationships, although the results were not good, but he still understood Lin Xiaowanâs gaze.
Su Lin touched his chin and looked at Lin Xiaowan in deep thought. This girl wouldnât be interested in me, right? âLetâs check the affection level. No matter how much I guess, itâs not as practical as the affection level.â
72? Itâs already so high? He didnât do anything. Although he often stayed with Lin Xiaowan in school, Xia Shiyu was basically with her the whole time. He didnât use any tricks. How did the affection level rise so fast?
Tsk tskâ¦
âIt would be great if I could get a hundred before university.â
âWhat one hundred!?â Lin Xiaowan asked, puzzled.
âUh⦠I mean, it would be great if you could get a hundred like me,â Su Lin quickly covered up.
âTsk~! You only did a little better this time. Next time, I will definitely surpass you in the next monthly exam,â Xiaowan retorted with a bit of competitiveness.
Seeing the budding rivalry, Xia Shiyu intervened, âDonât fight. Whatâs the point of fighting? Xiaowan, you havenât had enough of being first? Letâs go to the field and watch the fun.â
Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan looked at Xia Shiyu simultaneously.
Stare~!!!
Feeling a bit embarrassed by their intense gaze, Xia Shiyu protested, âWhatâs with that look? If you donât want to go, then donât. Why are you staring at me?â
âHehe~!!â Su Lin chuckled.
âHehe⦠Xiaoyu, you changed the topic a bit abruptly. Xiaowan and I are in a healthy competition,â he added.
âThatâs right, we donât have a grudge,â Lin Xiaowan agreed, adding a sweet smile towards Su Lin.
