Jia Yue stared at Qiao Xiaoni sitting in the corner. There was clearly an empty seat in front of her, but she wouldn't move. This left Jia Yue speechless, unsure how to ask her to move. Several teachers had already complained to her, wanting her to sit in the front.
"Our class's number one student is still Qiao Xiaoni. Let's all give her a round of applause to celebrate."
A snapping sound rang out.
Qiao Xiaoni was stunned. How did she accidentally get first place again? She had deliberately answered more than a dozen questions wrong, just to avoid the limelight.
Jia Yue took out the English test paper: "There are 30 questions in total. You only got two wrong. I'm very pleased. I hope you can work hard to get a perfect score for me next time."
This is already considered her admitting her mistake, reflecting on everything that has happened since the start of the semester. There was really no need to target her; she just felt she had lost face, which led to the current situation.
Qiao Xiaoni stood up and asked, "Teacher, is there a mistake in these scores? I want to know what the second-place student's total score was?"
"Second place?" Jia Yue didn't expect her to ask this question. She repeated it and took out the report card: "The second place is also in our class. It's Zhou Meiling."
The difference between your scores is fifty points, which is quite a large gap. I hope everyone here will work hard, study diligently during the holiday, and strive to get better grades.
"None of the students I, Jia Yue, have trained are bad. Do you all remember that?"
"We've got it!" the students said in unison.
Jia Yue gestured to Qiao Xiaoni with her eyes that she could sit down. Actually, if Tang Jiajia hadn't been in her class, she might have been the top student.
My resentment towards Tang Jiajia intensified. She'd only come to school for a few days, and had dragged down the class's grades. I must find a time to have a serious talk with the principal and get her transferred to another class.
Qiao Xiaoni was extremely surprised to have won first place all year. She sat down, feeling the admiring gazes of everyone, and felt a bit of pressure.
Zhou Meiling and Song Mingyuan have been gone for so long, and it's almost time for get out of class to end, but they haven't come back. I wonder what they've been up to; they've left all the pressure on me.
When the bell rang, Jia Yue handed her report card to the class monitor, asking him to inform everyone during the break. Then she took her English book and left the classroom.
The classroom erupted in excitement; everyone wanted to know their scores. They had all been top students in their previous schools, but now that university grades were re-ranked, they realized that getting good grades was far more difficult than they had imagined.
Zhou Meiling and Song Mingyuan stopped talking and started walking back after hearing the school bell ring.
When they returned to the classroom, there were only five minutes left before the next class.
When Zhou Meiling entered the classroom, she noticed that everyone's gaze had changed, as if there was something dirty on her face. She touched it and found nothing. Besides, Song Mingyuan would always help her clean herself up immediately if there was anything there.
"Great! You're second in the whole grade this time," Qiao Xiaoni said to Zhou Meiling.
She glanced at Song Mingyuan sitting next to her; he had also done well this time, ranking fourth.
The two complement each other perfectly, and all those discussions on various topics really paid off, resulting in a significant increase in sales.
"Second in the whole grade, you're not kidding me, are you?" Zhou Meiling was excited; she hadn't expected to get such a good score. After checking the answers after the exam, she realized she had made many mistakes and thought she would be ranked outside the top 50!
