Class 1, Grade 3 of a high school.
Looking around Zhou Chen's class, you can see that almost every student has a copy of the past three years' college entrance examination and five years' mock exam papers on their desk or in their study.
The set of exercise books that Zhou Chen created was so popular that everyone in the class had a copy. In fact, it wasn't just Zhou Chen's class that bought them; other classes in the same grade also purchased them.
The reason it's so popular is not only because of Zhou Chen's fame, but also because students are very interested in the past college entrance examination questions, especially the last set of advanced questions, which has been highly praised by teachers of all subjects, who think the questions are very well made.
As the deputy editor, Zhou Chen naturally received a lot of praise.
Whenever asked how he came up with those questions, Zhou Chen would attribute the credit to Wu Yingjie. Only after learning that Wu Yingjie was the main question setter did the students and teachers feel that it made more sense.
However, only Wu Yingjie knew that Zhou Chen just wanted him to show off.
This made Wu Yingjie very embarrassed. He felt that he did not deserve the praise because he was only responsible for checking and supervising the entire set of past exam papers to see if there were any errors. The last set of exam papers was Zhou Chen's own idea and had nothing to do with him.
This limelight should be returned to Zhou Chen.
As a teacher, he must set an example.
so,
To prevent the misunderstanding from continuing, Wu Yingjie took advantage of the break between classes to explain the matter in front of the entire school.
This caused an uproar at the scene.
Zhou Chen stood below the stage, first with a wry smile, then with understanding.
Old Wu is still the same Old Wu, stubborn and unwilling to take advantage of anyone, even when faced with immense fame, he can still push it away.
But Zhou Chen knew that this was the real Wu Yingjie, indifferent to fame and fortune. Otherwise, if Wu Yingjie had been willing to publicize the things he had done to help others, not only would everyone in Fengcheng know about them, but at least Fanjia County would know.
However, did Wu Yingjie publicize it?
No, not even the teachers at the same school know.
Zhou Chen believes that this kind of quiet dedication is what makes a true hero.
"Brother Chen, many students are suggesting that you participate in setting the questions for the next mock exam."
Li Kaile has brought back another piece of news that's been generating a lot of buzz.
Recently, from Zhou Chen getting first place in the city to obtaining the real exam papers, and then the papers selling like hotcakes, Li Kaile, as Zhou Chen's deskmate, right-hand man, and loyal supporter, has witnessed all of this. His admiration for Zhou Chen has reached an unparalleled level, and he has made up his mind to follow Zhou Chen for life.
Should we involve him in setting the questions?
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chen couldn't help but pause for a moment, then let out a faint laugh. His classmates were giving him too much credit; even if he wanted to, the school wouldn't allow it.
Unless the school leaders have gone mad, mock exams are not child's play; how can students be involved in them?
Don't forget, he himself also has to take the mock exam.
If he participates in setting the questions, isn't he essentially testing himself?
However, just when Zhou Chen thought the topic was just a joke, Wu Yingjie called him to his office and said something that left him dumbfounded.
"Now all the teachers in the school recommend that you participate in setting the questions. Be prepared."
"Teacher, this isn't right. I'm still a... student."
Zhou Chen refused.
To be honest, he's quite busy. He spends every day organizing past college entrance exam questions from other provinces, and then, based on the question patterns, he creates a new set of questions that are slightly more difficult. He's racking his brains every day for this, and he's even started losing hair.
How old is he? If he's losing his hair at this age, what will happen if he gets bald?
Wu Yingjie's eyes were complicated as he said, "The exam papers you prepared have been praised by all the teachers in the school. Many teachers think that their question-setting skills are not as good as yours. Don't try to shirk your responsibility. The principal has already made the decision on this matter. I am just responsible for making the notification."
Zhou Chen: "..."
Good grief, did you even ask for my opinion before making this decision?
"Teacher, if I set the questions, it means I know the answers, which is unfair to others."
Zhou Chen came up with a reasonable excuse.
Upon hearing this, Wu Yingjie revealed a meaningful smile and said calmly, "This issue has been considered long ago, so everyone has unanimously decided that you will take a separate set of exam papers, while the others will take a separate set of exam papers."
Zhou Chen: "..."
That's amazing! You played it at a really high level. I'm the only one in the whole school who got a whole set of exam papers. That's some serious treatment.
Zhou Chen felt he could boastfully shout, "Who else?"
Now that the matter was settled, how could he, as a student, refuse? He had no choice but to obediently agree. Actually, from another perspective, it was quite good. It was rather amusing that he set questions for the entire school.
The news that Zhou Chen was involved in setting the mock exam questions has somehow spread.
All the students in the school found out that day.
Many students came to inquire about what kind of questions Zhou Chen would ask, and some even suggested that Zhou Chen should make the questions easier so that everyone could get a perfect score.
Pah, shameless!
Zhou Chen naturally wouldn't reveal anything, no matter how others tried to find out, he wouldn't utter a single word.
March 25th, a special day.
Unlike usual, Zhou Chen did not spend the weekend resting at home or going to Fengcheng to meet Sun Wanying.
He bought two bouquets of flowers and went to the cemetery several miles away in Fanjia County to visit his deceased parents.
To his surprise, he saw a bouquet of flowers at his parents' graves, which looked like they had been delivered just a few days ago.
Who came here?
Were they those three ungrateful wretches, the Zhou family, or their parents' friends?
Zhou Chen could not confirm.
After wiping the tombstone clean, I sat in front of it for a while, told my parents about the current situation, and then left.
However, after leaving the cemetery, he went back and, after communicating with the cemetery staff, found a list of people who had come to pay their respects in recent days.
He saw a familiar name on it.
It was her!
Zhou Chen never expected that the person who sent flowers to her parents would be Zhou Na, who liked to stand on moral high ground and was selfish.
This was indeed beyond his expectations.
Was it a sudden pang of conscience?
Zhou Chen didn't know,
But this incident will not change his opinion of Zhou Na. An ingrate is an ingrate, and her nature will not change. Besides, even if she came here to visit her parents, so what? It's what she should do. If it weren't for their family, the three siblings would have starved to death on the streets or wandered to unknown places long ago.
All I can say is that Zhou Na has some conscience.
But not many.
Compared to Zhou Ling and Zhou Chuan, she is only slightly better.
After returning home,
Zhou Chen continued organizing past exam questions when a phone call suddenly interrupted his train of thought.
After connection,
Upon hearing the other party introduce themselves, Zhou Chen frowned immediately, and two sharp glints flashed in his eyes.
The reason is simple: the other party is a member of the Zhou family.
