"Yeah! It's reasonable and expected."
Xiao Youchen blurted out the words without thinking, and only then realized that he had lost his composure. How could he be so shameless in front of the teacher?
He raised his head awkwardly, and the three teachers stared at him as if he were a monster.
"I...I..." He stammered, not knowing what to say to make amends.
The head teacher stood up and moved the chair back behind him, pointing at it and saying, "Do it!"
Xiao Youchen looked at the chair, then at the teacher, but still didn't dare to sit down. This was an office after all, and there were other teachers around. How could he have the nerve to sit on the same level with them?
"Don't be afraid, sit down. How can you do well standing up?" the homeroom teacher said as she took out a few papers and placed them in front of him. "These are the papers that Teacher Wei and Teacher Zhang gave you individually. Skipping a grade is no small matter. For your future, the two teachers have given you a separate exam. Think of it as the final promotion exam!"
Teacher Li's words were very tactful, and Xiao Youchen could tell they still didn't believe he was truly capable. But it didn't matter. Just do it! It's just a test! The more the better. There's no harm in that.
He glanced at the chair behind him. Teacher Li winked again, motioning him to sit down. He then sat down and asked, "Teacher Li, pen?"
Only then did Teacher Li hand him his pen. He was really flattered that the teachers treated him so well.
His astonishing grades impressed the Education Bureau, which took him seriously. They felt he deserved special training, so they asked the principal to verify the authenticity of Xiao Youchen's grades. If they did, they would waive his tuition and fees for three years of junior high school, given his family's financial difficulties and his excellent academic performance.
This is really great news for Xiao Youchen. If he knew this, he would probably have no intention of doing the questions.
Under the supervision of three pairs of eyes, little Youchen remained calm and did each question carefully and meticulously, as if no one was around.
The three teachers never left for the entire morning and stayed by Xiao Youchen's side all the time.
Xiao Shuangning was getting anxious. She waited and waited but Xiao Youchen didn't come out. She paced back and forth under the eaves outside the office door, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
Zhou Yu's results were no surprise; he still ranked last. He had always thought that Xiao Youchen would do worse than him, but he actually ranked first in his class. He felt very unbalanced!
In front of the whole class, the teacher used Xiao Youchen as a positive example to motivate them and severely humiliated these poor students.
Zhou Yu really felt more ashamed than ever before. He even suspected that this little Youchen was not a human being, but was sent by God to fight against people like them who were dull in talent.
As soon as the teacher left, he rushed downstairs, wanting to find Xiao Youchen to vent his frustrations. As luck would have it, as soon as he got downstairs, he saw Xiao Youchen and Xiao Shuangning following the teacher towards the office. For someone like him, the most dreaded thing in life was going into the teacher's office. Whenever he went there, he was either criticized, made to stand in the corner, or had his parents called in. He was terrified every time he went.
He didn't dare to follow them, but ran to the school gate to wait. He thought, the monk can run away, but the temple cannot. As long as they want to go home, they will pass by here sooner or later. He would just wait here.
Xiao Shuangning was getting impatient. She didn't expect that Zhou Yu was also waiting with her.
Time passed minute by minute, and Xiao Youchen finally finished the test, but he did not rush to ask the teacher to mark his answers. Instead, he calmed down and checked the test paper carefully.
The three teachers looked at his focused expression and nodded in satisfaction.
Success is not accidental, and good grades are not achieved by luck. Considering Xiao Youchen's responsible attitude, his grades will not be too bad.
The three teachers were quite patient. They waited silently by the side and didn't even come forward to check on him. They wanted Xiao Youchen to give full play to his abilities.
After checking, Xiao Youchen handed the test paper to Teacher Li with full confidence, "Teacher Li, I've finished it. Please review it!"
He tactfully stood aside, waiting for the teacher's review results.
Teacher Li handed the test papers to the two teachers, who marked them carefully.
After a while, the results came out. Xiao Youchen did not disappoint them. The results were almost the same as the final exam. Except for finding an excuse to deduct two points from the writing score, they really couldn't find any other mistakes.
