Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1043: Chapter 1023: The Semester Has Ended

After Luo Qianqian handed everything over to others, she patiently followed He Wenyu to study.

The two of them studied both at school and at home. With someone accompanying and supervising him, He Wenyu’s enthusiasm for learning grew significantly.

Every day was enjoyable.

Under the influence of these two ’outsiders’, Class Seven developed a rare atmosphere of studying.

The appearance of the top student in Class Seven, what a matter worth boasting about!

Moreover, this top student was unafraid of authority and power, standing firm regardless of others’ opinions.

When Luo Qianqian saw the class starting to study junior high knowledge harmoniously, she suddenly felt as if she was back at Experimental Junior High.

Except for the difference in difficulty of the content being studied, everything else was fine.

Back then, they also learned rather convoluted knowledge, unlike now where they were purely learning basics of basics. Even so, it made the teachers holding the junior high textbooks very gratified.

What could be better than knowing that their students were finally studying properly?

However, during the final monthly exam before the end-of-term exams, they finally felt an overwhelming sense of malice, as they couldn’t understand anything on the test papers.

For a moment, the entire grade was full of complaints.

If it was math or science that couldn’t be understood, it would still be understandable since abilities are limited.

But when it came to Chinese classical literature, they couldn’t understand a single word, and the English essay completely bewildered them leaving them helpless.

Luo Qianqian understood it well, was this a revenge from Class One?

That teacher was indeed petty.

As two who surpassed that class significantly, it was clear that they wouldn’t be stumped.

Even with invigilators passing by every five minutes, they remained very calm.

She had said she wouldn’t give the trophy back to Class One, and she wouldn’t, as she wasn’t afraid of being watched by teachers anyway.

He Wenyu finally felt the difficulty of the exams.

Now this was the kind of paper he should be doing.

The usual papers weren’t as challenging as the exercises Luo Qianqian forced her to do every night.

Moreover, exams were their only collective activity with the class.

”This time’s questions are worth looking at.” After finishing the last subject, He Wenyu tidied his desk and said to Luo Qianqian beside him.

”Hmm, how many points do you think you can score?” Luo Qianqian asked with a calm face. At the moment, estimating scores for college applications was still necessary, not like in the future where the known scores were used for applications.

”I didn’t finish the last two math problems, around a hundred and twenty points, I guess. The Chinese was a bit difficult, I estimate just around a hundred points, English was okay, a hundred and thirty? For science, physics was somewhat abnormal, two hundred points would be the max. So the total would be around five hundred and fifty points.”

Listening to He Wenyu and Luo Qianqian’s conversation, everyone in Class Seven silently kept quiet.

The previously noisy classroom was waiting for Luo Qianqian to speak.

However, He Wenyu had no intention of asking further...

”Hey? Where’s Xiao Qi?” Lu Xue swallowed, moving closer to Luo Qianqian with a face full of curiosity.

Luo Qianqian said calmly, ”You’ll know once the results come out.”

She didn’t intend to show off anything.

It’s just that the old man brought the results the next day.

There was nothing to be done, as most participants only did the multiple-choice questions, while the big problems were scribbled with random answers, barely earning any points, unlike liberal arts which required careful word-by-word checking, thus marking was quite fast.

The difficult part was Chinese, but some idle teachers were called in to help with marking.

And since Chinese was the first subject tested, naturally there was no mistake, ensuring all subjects’ results were brought along.

Seeing the joy on the old man’s face, Class Seven’s students already guessed something.

After all, ever since the class decided to study, although they were learning junior high and elementary knowledge, it still comforted the old man, who no longer threatened to resign.

”Xiao Yu’s performance was excellent, very good.” The old man looked at He Wenyu with a smile of satisfaction, ”The speed of doing the questions could still be faster, that way you’ll have more time to tackle the bigger problems ahead.”

Listening to the comments on each person, everyone in Class Seven had faces of delight.

Although the scores were still not ideal, the teacher’s praise.

This, ever since they were Class Seven, hadn’t been heard.

”Deng Yuqi, I finally believe you, you’re like this wherever you go.” He gave a thumbs up as he reported the scores one by one.

Lu Xue almost spat blood on the side: ”I can’t even catch up with my scores multiplied by three...”

The old man laughed: ”Of course, this time it’s because of certain special reasons, making the test somewhat difficult, but rest assured, the end-of-term exams won’t be this hard. I believe everyone’s efforts then will be easy to see.”

Even Wang Xue, who had always seen Luo Qianqian as a rival, had a face full of admiration.

After starting to study, she realized how brain-wracking this was.

She used to mock those with high scores, but now? There’s only admiration left, she couldn’t do it even if she tried.

”Teacher? What about Class One?” Someone immediately asked about Class One’s scores.

The old man’s face showed a slight smile.

”Due to focusing solely on content we haven’t learned yet, it led to the latter big problems and the last two choice and fill-in-the-blank questions on the current paper, missing out on the foundational parts and thus...”

”What, what?”

”Following the two girls from our class, it’s students from Class Two, and the average score, Class Two has surpassed Class One.”

The old man’s face was unusually at ease.

Although, initially, he also wanted to persuade Luo Qianqian to go to Class One.

But now he realized, this student was not an ordinary person.

Not an ordinary person, not from Class One.

Finally, the end-term exams arrived, and Luo Qianqian asked for leave to return to the Capital City for the exams before rushing back to take the school’s finals. Meanwhile, the Four Seas project was nearing completion.

Located in the suburbs with no residential areas around.

So it was directly divided into three shifts, each shift eight hours, with three shifts rotating. Lighting was sufficient, no overtime, good welfare, and without harassment, construction naturally went quickly.

The workers who initially came with skepticism were now greatly relieved.

After working for so long, nothing had happened.

After the final exams, He Wenyu returned home, but within a few days, she came back on the excuse of going to the Capital City to find Luo Qianqian: ”I don’t feel like studying at home...”

Luo Qianqian twitched her mouth: ”Lacking someone to keep an eye on you? Go find my mom, if you don’t study she’ll beat you up, that’ll definitely make you study obediently.”

”Godmother is very gentle, okay? What are you going to do?” He Wenyu looked at Luo Qianqian’s bag in her hand, puzzled.

She looked like she was going out.

”How about I give you two questions, and if you solve them I’ll take you?” Luo Qianqian raised her eyebrows with a mischievous smile, seeing the excited look in He Wenyu’s eyes.

”If you don’t want to tell me, then don’t. Like a kid?” He Wenyu pouted, knowing Luo Qianqian’s questions were something she shouldn’t even try. She decided to stay put obediently.

This cycle had played out countless times over the past semester.

The saddest thing was wanting to eat a cake for Christmas but ending up with a pound of walnut cookies after getting six out of ten questions wrong.

Under the so-called name of: brain nourishment...
