The day the city's results were announced.

After leaving the villa, Xu Mo went to the school to check his grades.

On his way to the taxi, he unexpectedly saw Su Linlin and Lin Xinyu standing by the roadside.

Since No. 27 Middle School and No. 28 Middle School are relatively close, the three of them naturally came together.

When Su Linlin saw Xu Mo, she nodded as a greeting.

Xu Mo noticed that Senior Lin Lin seemed to be in a bad mood, but he didn't pay much attention to it.

Lin Xinyu, who was standing to the side, asked with a smile, "Junior Brother Xu Mo, are you confident in your abilities?"

Xu Mo replied with a smile, "Taking first place in the city shouldn't be a problem."

Lin Xinyu asked in surprise, "Junior Brother Xu Mo, you said the same thing last time, and you still dare to say it this time? Aren't you afraid of being proven wrong later?"

Xu Mo said with absolute certainty, "I will definitely get first place in the city!"

Su Linlin, who hadn't said much at first, couldn't stand it anymore and said with a look of disdain, "Xu Mo, I know you've made some money buying lottery tickets, but can you please stop being so arrogant when it comes to your studies?"

Xu Mo was stunned for a full two seconds, then looked puzzled and asked, "But do I really have a lot of confidence in my abilities?"

Su Linlin frowned: "You've hardly been to school, and besides, you've only been studying for a few days. How could you possibly get good grades!"

Xu Mo didn't want to argue about this further, so he shrugged and said, "Maybe I'm just exceptionally talented?"

Su Linlin's face showed even more disgust: "We've only known each other for a few days, and you've already casually transferred 1 million yuan to me? Can't you be a little more reliable? You're still the same as before when it comes to your studies, you don't know a thing or two about humility! You're simply unreliable and arrogant!"

Xu Mo was extremely embarrassed, but a hint of anger also rose in his heart: "Su Linlin, I only transferred 1 million to you because I consider you a friend. Whether you accept it or not is your business. I said I could get first place in the city, and you denied it? I would like to ask you, senior, what right do you have to speak to me?"

Su Linlin stared at Xu Mo in shock: "Of course I'm speaking to you as a friend. I'm saying this for your own good, so why are you blaming me instead?"

Seeing the two arguing, Lin Xinyu quickly stepped forward, blocking their way and forcibly pushing them apart. She then acted as a peacemaker: "Alright, alright, Linlin, I know you're concerned about Xu Mo, but let's be honest, is it possible that what Xu Mo said is true? Maybe he really does have the ability to take first place in the city?"

Su Linlin said with a frustrated look, "If you said you had the ability to take first place in the city, I might believe you. You're saying he has the ability to take first place in the city? Xin Yu, are you kidding me?"

Lin Xinyu was very conflicted: "Linlin, I think Xu Mo's winning the lottery jackpot is definitely not just luck. Maybe he won by calculating the lottery numbers himself?"

Su Linlin pouted: "You actually believe that?"

Xu Mo had originally planned to share a taxi with the two senior students, but after seeing the current situation, he lost interest.

Even if Su Linlin doesn't believe him and thinks it's just his arrogance, it doesn't matter. When reality comes, the truth will prove him right!

I'm sure that by then, Senior Su Linlin will look at him with new respect!

...

Xu Mo hailed a taxi by himself.

The moment I boarded the bus, my homeroom teacher, Xia Qingyu, called.

"Xu Mo, congratulations!"

"Teacher Xia, do you have any good news to tell me?"

"Congratulations on getting first place in the city! But then again, I've noticed you're always the first to hand in your paper in every exam! I was worried you might fail, but I realized I was short-sighted!"

"If I were Teacher Xia, I would also doubt that the students are not taking it seriously."

"By the way, Xu Mo, there's something I want to ask you."

"Teacher, please speak."

"How did you manage to submit your paper early and still get first place in the city? If it weren't for the surveillance footage, we would have even suspected you of cheating!"

"I did a targeted review."

"Targeted review?"

"Yes, I predicted the content that might be tested based on the exam questions from previous years, and then I reviewed the content accordingly."

"is that so?"

Although Xia Qingyu had some doubts, she didn't ask too many questions about it. It was a good thing that Xu Mo was able to win first place in the city, and from today onwards, No. 27 Middle School would be famous throughout the country.

"Xu Mo, when are you coming to No. 27 Middle School?"

"I'm already in a taxi."

"The principal was overjoyed when he heard that you had won first place in the city. He plans to have you set an example for all the teachers and students. Of course, the procedures such as giving a speech and broadcasting it live will be included. And of course, there will be awards as well."

"OK."

Xu Mo hung up the phone and felt refreshed.

After hearing the conversation, the driver also looked at Xu Mo with surprise.

"Young man, are you the top scorer in the city's college entrance examination?"

"yes!"

Xu Mo smiled, but recalling Su Linlin's previous attitude, he couldn't help but feel a little helpless. Senior Linlin didn't believe him. However, after Senior Linlin arrives at No. 18 Middle School, she should be able to hear about this, right?

At that time, I imagine the senior student must have felt guilty for misunderstanding him, right?

...

The name of the top scorer in the city was quickly published online.

Xu Mo became famous because of this.

Netizens have been discussing this extensively.

"Good heavens, is this Xu Mo the guy who stole my first place in the city?"

"Could you go back and practice for two and a half years before you start posting online?"

"But speaking of which, don't you guys think that Xu Mo, who's ranked first in the city, is somewhat similar to that guy who handed in his exam two hours early?"

"Now that you mention it, I do remember! This guy was really popular online before. Back then, he said he was going to take first place in the whole city, and I didn't quite believe it. I never thought it would actually come true!"

As a result, a video of Xu Mo boasting that he would take first place in the city was unearthed.

Netizens couldn't sit still any longer.

"Master, please accept my utmost respect!"

"I admit that I was a little short-sighted before, so I'd like to apologize to the expert here first!"

"Not only is the master handsome, but his skills are also top-notch! I just wonder if the master can forgive my previous offense?"

"I am the manager of Hengda Group. I would like to make it clear that Xu Mo's achievement of winning first place in the city is inseparable from the villa he previously purchased here. So, if anyone is interested in buying a villa or wants to be neighbors with the top scorer in the city, please contact me."
