Chapter 543: Chapter 543: Fight for the Glory of Qili_1 Chapter 543: Chapter 543: Fight for the Glory of Qili_1 “A phone call would have been sufficient! Did you really have to bring the radio and television too?”
“You don’t know, do you? Jiang Nanfei from class one, senior year three, did a great job in the college entrance exam. We’re wondering if there’s any chance for us to break into the provincial top ten this year.” Those who made it to the top ten would be on TV, saving them the trouble of individually checking the results.
“Top ten? Is he really that good?”
“The best performing student in our school’s college entrance exam was Principal Huo’s son, wasn’t he? What rank did he place in the end?”
“Right! What a pity! He just barely missed out on being the provincial champion in arts or science.”
The teachers chatted incessantly, and when this topic came up, they couldn’t help but smack their thighs, regretting the missed opportunity deeply.
The homeroom teacher of Class one, Year Two confidently said, “I have great faith in our class’s Jiang Zhuanzhuan. Even though she skipped a grade, her results have been consistently impressive since the very first mock exam.”
“Half of the final exam papers are out, aren’t they? How’s she doing?” Teachers generally have a habit of grading the exams of their favorite students or those with particularly good grades as soon as the exam is over.
“Five papers are out so far, she scored full marks in three of them, 184 on one and 149 on another.” With the full score being 150, even the most demanding teacher would be surprised by her score.
“These two sisters are defying the heavens!”
At that moment, Teacher Liu was anxiously watching the television, having immense confidence in Jiang Nanfei’s performance. This girl had quickly shot up from a rank of over two hundred in last semester’s first mock exam and has kept her steady performance ever since.
Not sure who shouted, everyone ended up crowding around the television set. Even those who were initially not anxious were now inexplicably nervous.
Many teachers didn’t harbour high hopes. Qi Li Middle School’s performance in previous years had always been steady, but the top students were usually from provincial high schools.
“Next, I am pleased to announce that this year’s provincial college entrance examination Champion is student Jiang Nanfei from Qi Li Middle School, congratulations…”
“Did they say the provincial champion? Is this a dream? Someone please slap me.”
The senior year teachers were so excited they could almost lose their minds, with Teacher Liu running around asking people to slap him. The physics teacher, being the most composed one, delivered a loud slap. Yet not only did Liu not flinch, he began to laugh gleefully instead.
“The Provincial Champion, hahaha… I can’t believe I taught the Provincial Champion.”
“Congratulations, congratulations!”
“Our Qi Li Middle School has produced its first Provincial Champion, hahaha…”
The noise coming from the staffroom was so loud that, especially with the current quietness of the on-going exam period, it could be heard throughout the entire school. Teachers who were invigilating in the classrooms, not knowing what was going on, anxiously stepped out to inquire, resulting in increasing chaos.
The history exam for class one, year two was underway. When the teacher left the room, the students grew bold.
“Was that our homeroom teacher’s laughter just now?”
“Did our homeroom teacher go crazy laughing?”
“What on earth is this big news?”
The students looked around the classroom. Some sitting by the window leaned out to see, only to find that all the other classes were doing the same.
Zhuanzhuan’s deskmate whispered, “Jiang Zhuanzhuan, do you know what’s going on?”
Zhuanzhuan, holding a pen in her hand, was deep in thought. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. “I know what it is!”
