Chapter 777: Chapter 775: Both Rivals and Friends
Although he regarded Jiang Mianmian as a competitor and always wanted to surpass her, they were also good friends.
He felt that staying in school to study, with teachers to tutor him, was definitely more efficient than studying at home by himself, so he spoke out to persuade her.
Jiang Mianmian was aware of Zhong Yuan’s kindness, but she still shook her head and refused.
“Zhong Yuan, I prefer to study by myself at home because I can learn faster that way,” she said. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel•fire.net
Zhong Yuan also showed his understanding, “Alright, then you study at home, and I’ll study here. Tian Wei will be coming to our class later as well.”
Knowing that the teachers for the ninth grade were staying with the students to study in the evening, Tian Wei had her aunt, who was also Zhong Yuan’s aunt, talk to Teacher Chu. She would come to the same class as Zhong Yuan every day after school to attend the evening study session, and it was convenient for them to go home together.
“Mhm, that’s good. The two of you can learn more that way, and after school, you also have each other’s company,” Jiang Mianmian said sincerely.
For students like them without the assistance of a system, staying at school for evening study sessions had great benefits.
After returning from school, Jiang Mianmian finished her dinner and completed the day’s homework, then immersed herself in the system,
diving into studying. The efficiency of learning within the system’s space was better for her, after all, the system provided her with lecture videos from the best teachers in the world.
Once in the system, she resumed studying solar energy technology, taking notes while she learned. Her little notebook was already filled with five volumes.
Jiang Mianmian had already completed the entire ninth-grade first semester curriculum, and was now devoting all her effort and time to studying solar energy-related knowledge. She didn’t want to waste a single minute, and even during class, she would be reading books related to solar energy.
The teachers of Class 1, grade nine, were all aware of the advanced pace of study of this Little Genius, which was different from other students.
Apart from diligently taking notes on the important knowledge points emphasized by the teachers, she self-studied at other times. Teacher Chu knew about this on the first day she took over the class.
That day, after she finished giving the lecture and saw all the students taking notes earnestly, she passed by Jiang Mianmian and glanced over out of habit.
She then saw the books about solar energy on Jiang Mianmian’s desk and her eyes immediately revealed a look of surprise.
Because much of the content and the technical terms in those books were beyond her understanding.
Although she was surprised that Jiang Mianmian was reading ‘extracurricular books’, she didn’t mention it in class because geniuses always had certain privileges.
When the class was over, she went to Jiang Mianmian and asked with concern, “Jiang Mianmian, are you having any problems with your studies recently? If there is anything you don’t understand, feel free to ask the teacher.”
At that moment, Jiang Mianmian’s ‘extracurricular book’ was still on her desk. When she heard the teacher’s question, she knew the teacher must have seen what book she was reading.
She remained calm and explained seriously, “Teacher, I have already finished the ninth-grade first semester textbooks. I am very interested in the principles of solar energy generation, so I found a few books to read. But don’t worry, I won’t let it interfere with my studies.”
Teacher Chu, hearing this, was somewhat surprised. It had only been a little over a month since the start of the school year—she had finished a semester’s worth of material already?
“Jiang Mianmian, since you’ve finished, let the teacher test you. Recite ‘The Difficulty of the Shu Road,'” Teacher Chu challenged her.
Hearing this, Jiang Mianmian recited smoothly and with much emotion.
