Li Mei was confused at Chen Lan’s actions.
In her view, this young teacher had always been gentle and rarely looked so agitated.
Perhaps she was too worried about the grades of this “Goddess of Studies”.
But her knowledge base was so bad that even God wouldn’t be able to save her.
“Ms. Li, I don’t know if you noticed.” Chen Lan was so excited that her voice was trembling.
Li Mei was confused. “What?”
As Sheng Yang’s Chinese teacher, she didn’t notice anything strange. Could Chen Lan, her math teacher, have noticed anything special?
“All the questions she got right were the most difficult ones, which proves her foundation isn’t bad.”
Li Mei frowned when she heard that, then she picked up the test paper from Chen Lan and examined it carefully. Then she frowned. She saw some patterns as well but she couldn’t figure them out.
Sheng Yang’s foundation was so poor. How could she have gotten all the difficult questions right? It didn’t make sense.
Did she deliberately get some questions wrong? How could there be such a person in the world?
The more Li Mei thought, the more confused she was. She was lost in thought.
Chen Lan looked at her and said cheerfully, “See? Sheng Yang is a genius. Maybe she didn’t do well on the Chinese exam, but all she needs to do is some memorization work.”
“What do you know?” Li Mei suddenly raised her voice and yelled, glaring fiercely at Chen Lan who was smiling happily.
This was discovered by a math teacher but not her, the Chinese teacher. How embarrassing would it be if others found out?!
So she would never admit it.
Besides, she was still suspicious about Sheng Yang’s performance on the Chinese exam.
For so many years, she had never seen a student who got difficult questions right but got the easy ones wrong. How could that be possible?
Li Mei marched away with the test paper. Chen Lan still didn’t give up and waved her hand at Li Mei’s back. “Ms. Li, please pay more attention to Sheng Yang and give her some time. I bet she will give you a big surprise.”
Li Mei sat back in her seat, still deep in thought about the bizarreness of it all.
Forget it. She put the test paper aside. Anyway, the fact remained that Sheng Yang didn’t even get a passing score.

Two tall and handsome men were standing at the entrance of Yan City High School, which immediately attracted the attention of the teachers and security guards on duty at the entrance.
One of them was handsome and elegant. With one hand in his pocket, he was smiling kindly. The sight of him made people feel as if they were bathed in warm sunshine.
The other had slightly darker skin and broad shoulders. He looked sporty and energetic, full of youthful energy.
Today, Sheng Yuxi was free and wanted to pick up his sister, so he played the finger-guessing game with his second brother to decide who would pick up his sister.
His second elder brother lost every time, but he still smiled.
“Second Brother, I’m sorry but I’m going to pick up Sister,” Sheng Yuxi said triumphantly as he grinned from ear to ear.
“Stupid.” Sheng Hanjing poked his forehead with a long, slender finger. “Why can’t we go pick her up together?”
Then with a chuckle, he walked out the door first.
Sheng Yuxi stayed in place, dumbfounded, and he said to himself. “Yes, he’s right.”
Sheng Hanjing was always punctual and would never let others wait for him, so he arrived quite early.
After a while, more and more people gradually appeared at the school gates.
