202 Genius


    “Teacher Zhang, Qiao Yu did pretty well this time. I’ve looked through the papers, and only Qiao Yu attempted thest question. The other students didn’t even try.” Chang Yuan, the lead teacher for the first years at Harvey said as he tidied up the test papers.


    Zhang Cheng’s face changed. “Who did you say it was? Qiao Yue?”


    “What Qiao Yue? It’s Qiao Yu, the top student in our grade. He did pretty well in other subjects too.”


    Chang Yuan took out Qiao Yu’s test paper from the pile. The handwriting on the paper was neat, and every step was written in detail. Other than thest question, which was a difficult one where he missed five points, he basically scored full marks for the rest of the paper.


    “Where’s Qiao Yue’s test paper? When I was invigting the exam, I remember that Qiao Yue solved thest question.” Zhang Cheng started searching through the pile of test papers.


    “Qiao Yue, Qiao Yue…” Zhang Cheng mumbled as he anxiously searched for Qiao Yue’s paper.


    “Teacher Zhang, why do you suddenly want to look at Qiao Yue’s test paper? Aren’t his grades bad, always at the bottom of the ss?” Chang Yuan found it a little strange, but he helped Zhang Cheng look.


    Chang Yuan was Qiao Yue’s math teacher. Whenever he heard the name Qiao Yue, his head would hurt.


    Qiao Yue was a grandson of the Qiao family. He had the support of the deputy mayor when he entered Harvey. The principal had repeatedly urged the teachers to discipline this student, but Qiao Yue was apathetic every day.


    Zhang Cheng yanked out Qiao Yue’s test paper from the pile.


    Qiao Yue’s handwriting wasn’t as neat, but it was elegant.


    Zhang Cheng looked through Qiao Yue’s test paper and found that he answered the paper well. Except for two multiple-choice questions, he basically got the rest of the questions right.


    Also, Qiao Yue had left thest question unanswered. It was nk.


    Zhang Cheng asked with a frown, “Teacher Chang, does the school keep the students’ draft papers?”


    Chang Yuan shook his head. The school didn’t keep the draft papers. They had probably been sold as scrap long ago.


    Zhang Cheng frowned. “Teacher Chang, when I was invigting the exam, I saw Qiao Yue solve this question on his draft paper. I don’t know why he didn’t copy the solution over to his actual test paper.”


    “Qiao Yue?” Chang Yuan picked up Qiao Yue’s test paper and looked at it. “Although he has improved a lot, it’s not to the point where he can solve questions of this standard, right?”


    The two multiple-choice questions that Qiao Yue got wrong were also quite difficult. He must have studied hardtely; he knew his stuff.


    It was normal for Qiao Yue to not know how to answer something out of sybus.


    “My eyes weren’t ying tricks on me, he really solved it.” Zhang Cheng kept staring at the nk on Qiao Yue’s paper, as though Qiao Yue’s solution would appear miraculously.


    Chang Yuan didn’t believe Zhang Cheng. He thought that Zhang Cheng must have been so busytely that he was a little muddle-headed. However, Zhang Cheng argued with conviction that Qiao Yue had answered thest question.


    As the two of them were talking, the results of the other subjects were released.


    Zhang Cheng and Chang Yuan went to theputer to look at the overall scores. The two students who had improved the most were Sun Bin and Qiao Yue.


    Sun Bin’s ranking had improved by more than a dozen ces and he was now in the top ten. Qiao Yue’s improvement was even more shocking. He made it from thest ce to the third ce of the entire grade.


    His results in advanced mathematics andputer science results were far ahead, only second to Qiao Yu.


    “Qiao Yue has worked hard recently.” Chang Yuanmended with a nod. “I’ve never seen any of the Qiao’s perform badly in their studies. Although Qiao Yue’s foundation was poor, he’s caught up.”


    Zhang Cheng was still struggling with thest question on the advanced mathematics paper.


    Looking at his old friend’s conflicted expression, Chang Yuan patted Zhang Cheng on the shoulder and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll ask Qiao Yue to exin his train of thought for this question in ss on Monday.”


    Zhang Cheng nodded. “You are the best.”


    Everyone was very nervous during the first period on Monday.


    As it was the homeroom ss, Chang Yuan announced everyone’s results.


    Sun Bin was so nervous that his face turned pale. He clenched his fists tightly and was at the brink of vomiting.


    Qiao Yu was also a little nervous. The questions this time were more difficult than expected and he wasn’t sure if he could get the results he wanted. Only Qiao Yue looked calm.


    “Why aren’t you nervous at all?” Qiao Yu asked.


    Qiao Yue stretchedzily and yed mindless games on her phone. “It’s okay. It’s just an exam anyway. The results are already out. It’s no use being nervous, right, fourth brother?”
