Looking at the rather delicate paper crane folded from draft paper in Shang Yunmiao's fair and rosy palm, Chen Bing nodded in approval, and then the girl gave the paper crane to him.
Very good, very good. This is the first time my wife has given me origami cranes. I have to take them home and keep them as a keepsake.
Chen Bing was very pleased and reached out to pat Xiao Shang's head, thinking to herself, "How dare you seduce me like this, Xiao Shang? If we weren't in the classroom, I would definitely punish you on the spot."
Just as I withdrew my hand from my head, the school bell rang.
I thought this third evening self-study session would be as uneventful as the previous two, but unexpectedly, halfway through the class, our homeroom teacher, Hu Jianjun, walked in looking flustered.
When he began to speak, the students, who had some vague guesses, looked up at him with nervous anticipation.
"Students, the grade statistics office has just finished compiling the scores for each subject and ranking them. I went over and made a copy as soon as possible, without even having time to print a paper copy, and brought it to you all."
As he spoke, he squatted down to turn on the multimedia system, clearly intending to project the results onto the screen for everyone to see.
"On the way here, I briefly looked at the results, and overall, they are quite gratifying."
In this monthly exam, a total of 45 students in our class were in the top 50 of the grade. The remaining five students who were not in the top 50 ranked as low as 73rd in the grade.
This result would be considered very good even by the standards of previous top-performing classes.
What makes me even more gratified is that the class average reached 857 points, the best score in recent years. While the relatively easy difficulty of the monthly exam may have played a role, this does not negate the students' hard work.
Although they didn't know their grades yet, just those few words from their homeroom teacher were enough to get everyone excited.
After seeing his classmates' excitement subside, Hu Jianjun didn't rush to open the document on the USB drive. Instead, he continued, "This time, two students in our class scored over 1,000 points, five students scored over 950 points, and fifteen students scored over 900 points."
People weren't surprised that there were academic geniuses who scored over 1,000 points, after all, there was a legendary top scorer, Chen Bing. What surprised them more was that there was actually another talent, just like Chen Bing, who scored over 1,000 points.
Is it Shang Yunmiao, who ranked second in the entrance exam? Or Su Liying, who ranked third, or someone else entirely?
Shang Yunmiao, who was being speculated about by others, suddenly felt very nervous. She scored 142 in Chinese, 150 in Mathematics, 148 in English, 98 in Physics, 88 in Biology, 90 in Politics, and 93 in History, for a total of 41 points deducted.
In other words, if she can lose less than nine points in chemistry and geography combined, her total score could potentially exceed 1000 points.
Thinking of this, the girl nervously clutched the hem of her clothes, and Chen Bing promptly took her small hand to comfort her.
"The student who did the best in the exam was Chen Bing, who was first in the whole school and first in our class when we entered the school."
Chinese Language 147
A perfect score in math.
English 149,
Physics full marks
Chemistry full marks
Biology full marks
Politics 98
History 95
Geography full marks
His total score was 1039 points, with 11 points deducted from nine subjects. Let's give him a round of applause!
As soon as he finished speaking, the classroom erupted in enthusiastic applause and unstoppable gasps of amazement.
Seeing this, Chen Bing shamelessly stood up and bowed generously to the students around him, which really made him look good.
After sitting back down, Chen Bing changed her previous calm, humble and polite demeanor, and put on a sly expression, taking a good look at the admiration in Shang Yunmiao's eyes for a while.
Don't be obsessed with me, I'm just a myth.
Forcibly suppressing the urge to take advantage of the moment to toy with Shang Yunmiao, Chen Bing listened to the homeroom teacher continue: "The second student to score over 1,000 points is Du Wendi, with 1,001 points, full marks in math, physics, and biology. Let's give him a round of applause."
Upon hearing that he was another person who scored over 1000 points, Du Wendi, sitting in the other corner of the classroom, was stunned. His mischievous friend, however, reacted quickly, immediately making a husky-pointing face and jokingly muttering, "Wow! You lazy bum, you were secretly working on your score behind our backs, weren't you! You're such a bad guy!"
Despite saying that, they still applauded for their friend's happiness.
Faced with the applause from his classmates, Du Wendi finally came to his senses. He wanted to stand up and thank everyone for their applause, just like Chen Bing had done. But just as he stood up, the applause stopped, and everyone prepared to listen to the homeroom teacher continue.
Du Wendi, who was already halfway to his seat, sat down awkwardly amidst the quiet jeers of his friends. Then, the homeroom teacher opened the document listing the grades and continued, "Third place: Shang Yunmiao, 997 points; Fourth place: Wang Shuhan, 987 points; Fifth place: Su Liying, 985 points..."
The moment the document opened, the students in the class stopped paying attention to what the teacher was saying. Almost everyone was busy checking their total score and grades in each subject, and Chen Bing was no exception, but he checked Shang Yunmiao's first.
Her geography score of 99 was quite good, but her chemistry score was only 89.
Also, fearing that Shang Yunmiao would be upset, Chen Bing encouraged her at the right moment: "That's amazing, you got third place! Maybe you'll be in the top few in the county from now on."
She was initially a little sad because she didn't get a thousand points, but after hearing what Chen Bing said, Shang Yunmiao's mood immediately improved.
After that class, the homeroom teacher gave a brief comment on the class's grades and then asked everyone to study quietly on their own.
Even the most outstanding students are still students at heart. At this age, no matter how stifling high school may be, it can't hide their youthful energy.
Having just seen their monthly exam results, and with relatively little homework after the exams, the classroom became a bit noisy during the last evening self-study session.
But it's all good; a noisier atmosphere will make it easier for me to make my move on Shang Yunmiao.
After glancing around to make sure no one was going to talk to her, Chen Bing gently placed her hand, which was hidden in the shadows, on Shang Yunmiao's leg.
Before Shang Yunmiao could react, Chen Bing lowered his voice and said mischievously, "Little Shang, do you remember when you discussed the submission date with me? Didn't you initially say you'd submit it after the grades came out, but then, at my request, you changed the time to a short break?"
Chen Bing is like a big bad wolf; just by looking at him, you can tell he has ill intentions.
