Chapter 747: A Slap In The Face
Stunned, Selina asked, “Boss, how dare he scold you? What did he scold you about?”
“He called me the Tyrannosaurus Rex.”
“Oh, that’s pretty apt,” Selina grumbled on the other end of the phone.
“Hmm?”
Zhong Nuannuan responded with a little grunt, and Selina quickly added like a submissive wife, “Boss, I’ll deal with him later. This puppy is in his adolescence and his temper’s been getting worse while thinking too much. Don’t be angry at him.”
Seeing that the teacher was about to arrive, Zhong Nuannuan hung up the phone. Leng Qirui lapsed into dismay and indignance after she hung up. “Zhong Nuannuan, you’re so cruel!”
Zhong Nuannuan smiled and said, “What’s wrong? You’re not even afraid of me. Why are you afraid of Selina?”
Leng Qirui choked.
Zhong Nuannuan said encouragingly, “Young Master Leng, don’t be afraid. Act like the man you were when I first met you. Think about it. Back then, you were surrounded and you were bleeding pus from your buttocks, but you still had the courage to protect me. Selina is so sweet and obedient. What are you afraid of?”
Leng Qirui, “...”
Sweet and obedient?
Thinking that Selina would either beat him to the ground, threaten him, or use her two ‘weapons’ against him, Leng Qirui felt a chill down his spine.
However, his fear did not last long because the teacher had entered their class.
The homeroom teacher, Teacher Liu, came in with other subject teachers, as well as... the school principal.
All the teachers looked radiant and energetic, their eyes beaming.
“Students, everyone knows that today is the day that the results are announced. Everyone knows that for the sake of fairness, the teachers have graded the papers per the standards of the National College Entrance Examination. Students’ names and classes were made anonymous, and the student registration numbers made random. Therefore, there is a very good piece of news that we only found out this morning. That is, in our school, in our class, someone managed to get first place in the entire state for this year’s joint examination[1], and this person surpassed the second place by a great amount.”
While Teacher Liu was speaking, she glanced at Wu Wenqian.
Wu Wenqian was shocked.
To be honest, to make Zhong Nuannuan kowtow and apologize to her, Wu Wenqian admitted to herself that she had indeed worked harder than ever.
Therefore, when the teacher looked at her, Wu Wenqian thought that the person mentioned by Teacher Liu was her. Only then did she understood that as a student, only by having good grades would she gain an ounce of respect.
Seeing Wu Wenqian smile, the students in the class instantly got up to boo her.
“How is it Wu Wenqian?”
“She has a twisted worldview. So what if she got first place? Even if someone like her got first place in the country, she could only go from a scumbag to a high-class scumbag!”
...
When Wu Wenqian heard this, the expression on her face instantly darkened. Just as she was about to tell these people off, Teacher Liu said, “Who said Wu Wenqian is number one in the entire state? Although Wu Wenqian came up top in the Senior High School Entrance Examination, she is an extremely negative example. Just like what everyone said just now, the most important thing for a student is to study. It doesn’t matter if you are in an ordinary school or an elite school; it doesn’t matter if your family is rich or poor, you should focus on your studies. Although our school is an elite school, we never mistreat students with excellent grades. We even let everyone enjoy a good learning and living environment. Why? It’s because the school wants to set an example for everyone. We want everyone to know that only knowledge can allow us to have a better foothold in society!”
[1] This generally refers to an examination held across two or more schools.
