Tang Lin skipped over Rong Qiâs name entirely, as though she, who always scored perfectly in everything, was nothing but a bug in the system.
Lu Qi frowned and stood up to look at the question on the blackboard. After scanning it once, she answered, âSir, the term that specifies the seller is not responsible for export formalities or related expenses is EXW.â
Tang Linâs eyebrows furrowed slightly, forcing a smile onto his face, and said, âYouâre still as exceptional as when you were in my class. Keep up the good work.â
âThank you.â Lu Qi replied, sitting back down, seemingly unimpressed by her own correct answer.
Tang Linâs expression darkened further. He glared at his own students before moving to the next question. âZhang Fu, you answer this one.â
Zhang Fu glanced at the question and quickly said, âD. Delivery against documents.â
âHuang Hao, you answer this one,â said Tang Lin.
âB.â Huang Hao answered.
Every single student Tang Lin called upon answered correctly, making him suspect for a moment that Han Ning had somehow stolen his presentation slides, giving Class 7 an unfair advantage. Tang Linâs face flushed with a mix of anger and embarrassment as he spoke, âHan Ning, you answer this one.â
Sitting at his desk, twirling a pen, Han Ning didnât move an inch. He looked at the blackboard and said, âB,â with a tone of light mockery, tinged with a hint of amusement.
Tang Linâs face turned even more sullen. Just as he was about to speak, Han Ning interrupted, âI canât hack into other peopleâs computers. Even hackers have principles.â
Han Ning paused. He thought, âExcept for Miss Seven, of course.â
âHow is it that everyone in your class knows the answer? This is the first lesson on international trade. Are you all clairvoyant or something?â
As soon as the words left Tang Linâs mouth, Huang Hao, Class 7âs most outspoken student, retorted, âWhen will I stop feeling secondhand embarrassment for people like you? Is it so hard to admit defeat in this day and age?â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Not only Tang Lin but the entire Class 1 felt the sting of that comment.
It was embarrassing for Tang Lin, especially since the Class 7 students had answered every question correctly while Class 1 hadnât. A cough escaped Tang Lin as he tried to defuse the awkwardness. He said, âCould I ask how you all know about international trade?â
Everyone in Class 1 also turned to look at Class 7.
Huang Hao wore a smirk of arrogance and said, âWhen Miss Seven started teaching us, she used family case studies to discuss these topics. So naturally, we remember it quite vividly.â
Seeing Tang Lin and Class 1 studentsâ faces flushed with repressed frustration and resentment made Huang Hao feel even more elated.
Initially, Huang Hao thought Rong Qi was just rambling in her lectures. Now he realized everything was interconnected with the knowledge he was gaining.
â Impressive! This was the first time weâd had a public class with Class 1, and we had won effortlessly.â Huang Hao thought.
Having bested their rivals, especially the ones who had always outperformed them academically, Class 7âs students couldnât be happier. Their admiration for their instructor, Miss Seven, surged silently. They all thought that their instructor was a truly special professor and had great vision.
The duration of a university class is two hours with a ten-minute break in between. With only ten minutes left before the end of class, the students of Class 7 were already restless, shifting in their seats like restless larvae. They were itching to go, fists clenched, eager to rush out and grab some lunch.
Previously, when there were no elective classes, they only had two morning sessions with a senior professor in Management Studies, allowing them to head to lunch early..
