Chapter 21
The words written were so direct. It was impossible to misunderstand the meaning.
[ Three years ago, our country’s famous scientist, Professor Chi, discovered the X element and won the Nobel Prize. However, she did not attend the award ceremony. Instead, a representative brought a letter written by Professor Chi and in it was written as follows: A villager needed help planting trees, so I am unable to attend. Please forgive me. ]
[ What is the true meaning behind Professor Chi’s words? ]
Chi Wei merely wrote down what caused her action at that time.
However, the students who were unaware of her identity kept laughing at her.
Apparently, the words on her letter had a different meaning.
Chi Wan smiled to herself.
From the corner of her eyes, she could see Song Ci picking up his phone with an unsightly expression, although she did not know who he was texting.
Chi Wan tried to hide her joy by putting on a disapproving expression on her face.
“Sister, even if you did not understand the meaning behind Professor Chi’s words, you should not write an answer like this…”
“For a genius like Professor Chi, every word she spoke has a deep meaning.”
“You can’t insult a genius who has made countless contributions to the country like this.”
“…”
After Chi Wan finished speaking, everyone immediately nodded in agreement.
“That’s right. If you really did not understand, you could just skip the question. You should not have joked around like this!”
“If I were Professor Chi, I would beat you up on the spot after seeing the answer you wrote!”
“…”
The more the student spoke, the more annoyed he became.
Suddenly, a slightly plump and short figure appeared at the classroom door.
The noisy classroom instantly became quiet.
It was a teacher named Zhou Lin and he was furious. He slapped the test paper that he had just taken from the bulletin board onto the table. In a rough and loud voice, the middle-aged man said, “I, Zhou Lin, have been teaching for more than ten years. However, this is the first time I encountered such a mischievous student!”
“Chi Wei! Which one of you is Chi Wei? Stand up!”
It was clear that he wanted to harshly reprimand the student. The surrounding students took a step back, revealing a slightly stunned Chi Wei.
“So, you’re Chi Wei? Hurry up and acknowledge your mistake!”
The young lady still had a nonchalant attitude, as if she had done nothing wrong. That sight made Zhou Lin even angrier. However, he could not do anything other than glare fiercely at Chi Wei. Then, he threw the test paper directly at her.
The test paper landed in front of Chi Wei.
Chi Wei lowered her eyes and immediately saw a big red cross on the box next to “reading comprehension”.
There was a comment right below it that reads: [ Points deducted for disrespecting the professor. ]
“…”
The girl was more confused than ever.
This was what she thought at that time.
Her neighbor, the granny, was a very sweet person. So, she just wanted to help.
Chi Wei looked at the fierce gaze of Zhou Lin and paused for a moment. Then, she said in the most serious manner, “This is what Professor Chi was really thinking.”
“Pfft!”
“Hahahaha!!!”
The students burst into laughter again.
Zhou Lin was angrier than ever. He clenched his fists and said, “What? Did Professor Chi tell you this personally? Don’t think that just because you share the same surname, you can make up such nonsense!”
Even Chi Wan was genuinely stunned by Chi Wei’s words.
However, this was a good opportunity for her to show off! She quickly reacted by pulling Chi Wei’s sleeve. Then, she said in a gentle tone, “Sister, I got a perfect score for this question. I can help you. Professor Chi’s words actually have four layers of meaning. They are…”
