Chapter 27 Are you insulting me?

The report was in the form of a table. The first column was the ranking and below were the names, the marks they got for each subject and the last column was the total marks they got.

Shen Juan’s results were slightly skewed. Aside from having lower marks in literature, he nearly got full marks in math and sciences, particularly physics, scoring a full 100 marks.

Lin Yujing felt that in the 16 years she’s lived, she’s never felt such extraordinary shame and humiliation.

Liu Fujiang was very excited. This was the first monthly exam of the second year and they hadn’t done any systematic review. Even though school had just started, 700 points was already a very terrifying mark to get.

It was not as if there were never any students who had scored 700 marks from the experimental class but this was Class 10.

The lowest ranking class Class 10 that occupied 1/3 of the last examination venue.

“Even though the questions in this exam weren’t difficult, the marks you got are very impressive. I went and secretly asked around and there seems to be someone else who scored 700 marks in Class 1. I haven’t asked in the other classes though but there’s only one person in Class 1 who received such a mark so I reckon there aren’t any others in the other classes,” Liu Fujiang looked as if he were the one who scored 700 marks, “I’ve also taken a look at the exam papers and Shen Juan does seem to do better in certain subjects. Literature’s pulled down your marks by a lot. You even left the classical poem and classical Chinese part blank. That’s two marks. Those were pretty much free marks too. Do you dislike literature?”

Shen Juan paused as if to ponder how to respond in a way that would make Liu Fujiang speak less. In the end, he decided to be conservative and merely nodded his head.

Lin Yujing felt that she could see the 6 words and a question mark on Shen Juan’s calm face.

–You only got that many marks?

Lin Yujing felt really hurt.

She slowly straightened her spine, bit by bit, and leaned back, expressionlessly looking at him. “703? Not bad.”

Shen Juan let out a sound of acknowledgement, still laying on Liu Fujiang’s desk, and praised her, “You’re not bad yourself.”

Lin Yujing felt a bit suffocated, nearly unable to breathe and so, she turned her back to him.

He. Mocked. Her.

She, empress Lin Yujing, the Lin Yujing who had always scored first place in every exam every year, was mocked by her desk mate, her desk mate who always skipped classes or slept in them, who didn’t even do his homework properly and even thought 3.141526 was Ohm’s Law, this scummy deskmate.

She really couldn’t understand. When she was studying in the subsidiary school, there were a lot of exceptional students. There were certainly a lot of smart people who learned things fast, including Lu Jiaheng who was one of those who didn’t study after class but would at least listen during class.

Lin Yujing didn’t understand what type of student Shen Juan was. Was it because she had been short-sighted, having never met a genius, or was it because Shen Juan was actually faking it, studying at home secretly after school?

She took two steps and asked in a baffled tone, “You got 703 marks despite sleeping in class every day?”

Shen Juan propped his head on his hand, tilting, his finger resting on the side of his lips as he stayed quiet for a while before slowly responding, “In the past, I took a break from school due to some reasons.”

Lin Yujing replied ‘I know’ on the inside. Wasn’t it because you nearly beat your desk mate to death?

“So I’ve already learnt some of the content for second years. It’s too simple so listening to class is a waste of time so I’d rather catch up on some sleep.” Shen Juan said.

“Also, I don’t sleep everyday. Sometimes, I listen during class. You just didn’t notice.” Shen Juan continued.

Lin Yujign felt that this reason did abate her frustrations a little and sighed, replying, “Before you were suspended, how long did you attend classes for?”

“I don’t know,” Shen Juan raised an eyelid, “A week’s worth probably.”

Lin Yujing expressionlessly looked at him, “Classmate Shen, I hope you can become less slappable. I really don’t want such a shallow matter like school grades to destroy our hard-fostered friendship as deskmates.”

Liu Fujiang came back after a few minutes and gave an analysis of Lin Yujing’s marks asking her sincerely if she really had any opinions to share with him as biology was her lowest among the three sciences. It was only when 10 minutes of self-revision class had passed that the two people finally left the biology office.

Their math teacher, Dinosaur Wang, took up 10 minutes of their self-revision class and in the middle of his lecture, Lin Yujing went into a bit of a daze.

To tell the truth, it was not that she couldn’t accept Shen Juan scoring higher marks than her, she wasn’t that petty.

However, when Lin Yujing recalled the words she said earlier and the things she did, she felt her thin skin ache slightly. It was as if Shen Juan had succeeded in deceiving her completely.

She had suffered a slap to the face.

Lin Yujing carefully sifted through her memories and confirmed that Shen Juan had never said he got bad grades.

Though every teacher would mention about his habit of sleeping in class, and Dinosaur Wang would also roar at him to pay attention, aside from this, he certainly never did say he had any academic problems.

During the small quizzes in class and the homework, he usually only answered the multiple-choice question whereas for the long questions, he would only write the answer without the steps. If one were to perfunctorily look at his work, they would assume that he either copied or blindly put in an answer.

Lin Yujing recalled the time when they had just become desk mates and were still not that familiar with each other, Shen Juan had said ‘My English’s all right.”

Recalling the time he was punished to copy Ohm’s Law, he had even confidently and indifferently said, “My physics’ also all right.”

However.

Lin Yujing felt as though she had been tricked.

She felt that she must’ve acted like an idiot, the words ‘stupid’ written in bold on her face. She didn’t know if Shen Juan looked at her as if he was looking at a fool. In any case, now that she was sifting through her past memories, she felt like an idiot.

She stayed up until 2:30am in the morning to arrange physics review materials and in fear that he wouldn’t be able to differentiate between a word doc and a ppt, she combined the two things and even added supplementary review questions.

In order to stimulate the unenthusiastic student’s interest, she even fucking made an advert for him.

In the end, the guy got full marks for physics.

His total marks were also higher than hers.

I thought you were only a tyrant.

Turns out, you were also a top student1.

Lin Yujing felt that she might have to say goodbye to the first, or possibly the only person she could call friend since arriving in this city.

The efficacy of Eighth High’s teachers proved to be very high. In the afternoon the next day, Liu Fujiang brought news of the grade rankings and the one in the experimental class got 703 marks. In the end, after this student got his test papers, he actively reported to the teacher about a mistake in his answer sheet that hadn’t been scored and got himself deducted 3 marks.

Class 10’s Shen Juan thereby seized the win with one move, and became the indisputable top student of the second years, and his desk mate Lin Yujing rose from third place to second place yet she did not feel a single hint of happiness.

Classmate Lin Yujing was like a deflated eggplant, all listless and dispirited as though she was dehydrated. Even her words sounded very weak.

Li Lin felt that it was most likely because her assured first place had been snatched away by the school tyrant, but what does this matter? You were only two points away from him! You’re already the second ranking student in the whole grade, a big boss who scored more than 700 points. Are you really in that much pain?

Student Li Lin who only got 305 marks in the exam, was still basking in the wonderful feeling of actually passing his math, feeling as if he was an exceptional student, the most gifted person in this world. He probably had the potential to be able to take his exams in the first examination room so he couldn’t understand the world of these top students.

Shen Juan also couldn’t really understand her.

He thought he could figure people out quite accurately. Lin Yujing was definitely not the type to be petty, to become unhappy because her grades weren’t as high as hers, so during the exam, Shen Juan didn’t think too much and just answered the problems as required.

But now, his desk mate indeed didn’t seem happy. If it wasn’t because she had 2 marks less than him, then what was the reason?

A girl’s heart was like a needle at the bottom of the sea. Shen Juan really couldn’t understand the meticulous workings of her brain.

A week after the papers were handed out, every subject teacher was basically going through the exam. As the top and second ranking students were both in Class 10, the number of people surrounding to observe Class 10 had been growing.

Take for example when class ended, the number of people who were ‘passing by’ their entrance grew a lot. Even if Class 10 was located at the end of the fourth floor, to ‘pass by’ would only mean they would go through a wall.

When a certain girl was ‘passing by’ the entrance for the third time during a class, her curious and excited face looking at Lin Yujing, Lin Yujing finally couldn’t hold back her temper.

She slammed her pen down and took a deep breath, looking at the girl outside the classroom.

When the girl came eye to eye with her, she appeared stunned and couldn’t react for quite some time, standing in the doorway looking back at her.

When class was dismissed, the class was pretty rowdy. The sounds of laughter also filled the hallways and nobody was paying attention to them. Lin Yujing frowned and was about to speak up when Shen Juan returned to the classroom and was standing at the doorway, looking down at the girl. “Excuse me, I need to go in. Thanks.”

The girl raised her head and came eye to eye with the school tyrant’s cold face.

Lin Yujing couldn’t even tell whether the expression the girl had on was of fear or shyness.

She sighed and dropped her head down once again, preparing to finish answering the biology question Liu Fujiang had yet to finish explaining when she suddenly felt the cold gaze of a certain somebody.

Lin Yujing ignored it for 3 minutes until she finally couldn’t resist raising her head.

Shen Juan stood by the doorway, looking at her with a frown. “What exactly are you unhappy about?”

“How can you tell I’m unhappy?” Lin Yujing asked expressionlessly.

“Why do you look unhappy,” Shen Juan tilted his head, “Was it my fault?”

“No.”

“Was it because of the monthly exam?” Shen Juan became a bit impatient, “It’s already been a week, you still haven’t gotten over it?”

“I’m not angry. What is there to be angry about? I can’t be happier for you. Miss Lin sure is outstanding to be able to make her student score full marks in physics,” Lin Yujing lowered her head and continued to do her biology papers, her pen continuously scribbling, “He even scored 2 marks higher than Miss Lin.”

Even though the background noise was loud, Shen Juan felt that he could hear the sound of Lin Yujing gnashing her teeth.

“It’s just two points from one multiple choice question,” Shen Juan leaned against the doorframe, looking at her with a frown, unable to understand, “If it’s that bad, from now on, if there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask me and I can explain it for you.”

Lin Yujing’s pen came to a step as she raised her head, glaring at him in disbelief, “Are you insulting me?”
