Chapter 127 - 126 Welcome Top Student of the Grade (Extra Chapter 2)

“No private talking!” Pei Sujin turned her head to glare at them.

“Teacher, even if those two talk for the whole class, it won’t help with what they don’t know!”

Laughter erupted throughout the classroom.

“Didn’t you study over the weekend? Let’s see the results now!”

“You don’t even do your homework and dare say you studied!”

“Quiet down, no more talking.” Pei Sujin struggled to maintain order, reviewed the knowledge points from last week with the students, and when she turned back to the board, it was covered with densely packed solution steps.

Pei Sujin scanned through them quickly, her breath caught in her throat.

The teacher was stunned, and the students were caught by surprise as well.

Even the class president, Bai Fangfei, who was quite good at studies, was puzzled, repeatedly flipping through her workbook to check her own solutions.

Did those two underachievers really solve the math thinking problem?

Inconceivable!

The answers weren’t in the textbook, and the two were far apart at the board, plus their solution steps were different, so there was no possibility of copying from each other.

What was happening?

Intending to make an example out of them, Pei Sujin held her breath, had the fat and thin duo step down, and started discussing their methods with the students.

Smooth steps, an innovative approach to problem-solving, and a completely correct answer!

Guo Zihao and Yuan Hao walked down with their backs straight, their gaze shining like they were looking at a deity when it fell on Lu Mian.

Lu Mian found it all inexplicable and ignored them, continuing to read her novel with her head down.

——

During the second long break, Lu Mian visited Principal Zhang’s office.

She finalized some details about the donation and also learned that the five million from the families of Fat Hao and Shouhao had already arrived.

She couldn’t help feeling amused at the speed…

Having discussed the scholarship matter, Lu Mian slouched on the sofa and said indifferently, “Principal Zhang, could I take a look at Kunpeng High School’s historical records?”

“Ah… those have already been borrowed,” Principal Zhang said, embarrassed.

“Who borrowed them?”

“Lu Mian, I can’t tell you that. However, if you’re investigating the kidnapping case, I really don’t have any clues to offer you. The kidnapper’s last disappearance point was indeed at Kunpeng High School, but the surveillance at the time was destroyed.”

“Alright, I got it.”

——

While Lu Mian was absent, Class 25’s homeroom teacher, Ding Cai, called all the students back to the classroom.

“Let me introduce you all: this is Su Luo, a student who tested into Kunpeng School with you. She has been participating in go tournaments out of town and has now returned. A warm welcome, everyone!”

Next to Ding Cai stood a 16 or 17-year-old girl with a high ponytail, wearing limited edition sneakers, and a faint elite atmosphere exuded from her delicate features, clearly a girl from a good upbringing and outstanding in every way.

The students whispered amongst themselves.

“Isn’t she the Go princess from the Su Family?”

“I saw her name on the leaderboard before; I thought she transferred.”

“Isn’t she really good? Why isn’t she in Class 1?”

A student tentatively asked, causing others to look sheepish.

Talk about losing face…

Su Luo ignored the whispers, simply saying a plain “hello” on the stage and nothing more.

Smiling, Ding Cai defused the situation, “Actually, Su Luo joined our school with the highest score in the whole grade. Since she had tournaments to attend, she was placed in our class. Let’s help each other out from now on! Su Luo, you can sit in…”

He looked around and hesitated when his gaze fell on the seat next to Lu Mian.

That was the only empty seat in the class, and having two girls sit together…

No, no.

Su Luo was first in the grade, and Lu Mian was last, that could hurt Lu Mian’s pride.

Ding Cai immediately dismissed the idea and pointed to a corner seat on the other side, “For now, Su Luo, take that seat. After the next monthly test, I’ll rearrange the seating.”

Su Luo shook her head, quite assertively raising a finger, “Teacher, may I sit there?”

She was of course pointing to Lu Mian’s spot.

She added, “I prefer a seat by the window.”
