Su Cen forgot where his seat was. The seating arrangement in junior high had become rather vague to him, so when he asked a classmate, "Where do I sit", Tang Wu, who walked by, couldn't help but give him an odd look.
Following the other person's hint, Su Cen sat down and realized that his seat was in the third group, fifth row. The third and second groups were combined to save space in the classroom, with a large group of four people per row in between. Su Cen was seated at the second position, next to a long-missing, seemingly youthful desk mate. To his surprise, sitting directly in front of him in the fourth row of the second group was Deputy Class President Dong Qingyun, and beside Dong Qingyun on his left, in the far left seat of the fourth row of the second group near the aisle, sat Tang Wu.
The day was the last day of classes, and everyone had a mix of excitement and nostalgia. Tang Wu also felt reluctant to let go of her junior high school life. While chatting with her desk mate beside her, a female student behind her patted her shoulder and handed her fifty cents along with a note.
The girl behind her smiled warmly and pointed towards Su Cen's position at the back.
Tang Wu accepted both the note and yesterday’s photocopy money that Su Cen returned. Unfolding the note, it read: "Could you please copy out all the subject exercise sheets that our teacher handed out yesterday after school Thanks."
Tang Wu crumpled up the paper, turned around to look at Su Cen in confusion. She hadn’t expected Su Cen to have photocopied Dong Qingyun’s extremely challenging math exercises from the day before, and now he was asking her for the internal exercise sheets of other subjects. After dinner last night, she had tried working on those exercises but only completed sixty questions by midnight despite achieving a 95% accuracy rate. If Tang Wu wanted to go through all the subject exercises within two days' time, it would be just enough if she used up her holiday break without any rest at all.
She didn't think Su Cen was capable of doing what she had done.
To be honest, at this point he should focus more on the basics. For Su Cen, it would be better to spend the two days off before the high school entrance exam reviewing his fundamentals rather than working on these difficult problems. After all, no one has ever heard of a bird learning to fly before it learns to stand.
Though she had many questions, Tang Wu still nodded at Su Cen. As class president, she was always just and aloof; moreover, she disliked passing notes. Since starting school, Tang Wu had never passed notes with any boy, so naturally she would not make an exception for Su Cen.
Su Cen didn’t mind this. Seeing that little Tang Wu nodded, he felt relieved.
The homeroom teacher from the junior high years walked into the classroom and first went over some reminders before starting his final review of math to fill in any gaps.
His image was exactly as Su Cen had remembered it. After leaving high school, he almost never saw his junior high teachers again, so they left the impressions that remained now.
During a break between classes, Dong Qingyun, who had been displeased from early morning when he saw Su Cen pass notes to Tang Wu, walked up to him and sneered at him. "Hey, how’s the homework I gave you yesterday Did you get any of them right, or did you not even look at it"
Su Cen simply ignored his sarcastic remarks and said, "By the way, I’ve finished those problems; unfortunately, I don’t have the correct answers. Could you show me your answers so we can check whether mine are correct"
Dong Qingyun’s mouth quivered, “You did!...” Then he continued in a relaxed tone, "…Or maybe just some of them Alright, my answers are in my backpack; let’s see how much you’ve reviewed tonight.”
Dong Qingyun deliberately spoke this sentence a little louder, which allowed some people on the balcony to clearly hear it. His intention was to mock Su Cen, and now many people were interested and unconsciously followed Su Cen and Dong Qingyun back into the classroom. Dong Qingyun promptly retrieved the reference answers for the internal practice questions from his bag and excitedly approached Su Cen, slapping them down on the table: "Here, let's check your answers. I'll see which problems you've done, and maybe even give you some review suggestions!"
Cheng Yun and her sister Cheng Lan, who had witnessed yesterday's events, gathered around to see how many questions Su Cen could solve without the reference answers when he dared to take the internal super test papers that the teacher only gave to top students. They suspected they could probably count on one hand.
Dong Qingyun proudly watched as Su Cen took out his試卷，展開後密密麻麻的藍色鋼筆字跡像潮水般覆蓋了整張油印試卷。
全部解答！
周圍已經有人低聲驚呼。程蘭和程雲兩姐妹都在發呆。
董青雲麵子上有點掛不住了，他昨晚做了這套題，做到了第十題、第二十題、三十三題、四十五題，不同程度地卡殼，耗費了很多時間，最後到淩晨一點才完成五十八道題，覈對完答案改正了幾處錯誤之後就洗漱睡覺了。
誰知道一覺醒來，不過幾個小時後，在課間休息的這一刻，他看到的是蘇燦卷麵上全部解答的習題！？
"不可能..."攤開了試卷，董青雲對蘇燦訕笑道，“你胡亂寫的吧...我們來對一下答案就知道了...”
As Dong Qingyun went through the process of verifying answers, his expression gradually changed. Only Su Cen, who was watching next to him, would occasionally say, "Oh no, this question is wrong... Oh, another one is incorrect..."
"It's already the third one..." When he said this, Su Cen sounded somewhat dejected; they were now at the 90th question.
After completing a hundred questions, Su Cen had an accuracy rate of ninety-seven percent.
The three classmates sitting around him—regardless if it was those in front or behind—and even Cheng Yun and Cheng Lan who were watching out of curiosity, all became dumbfounded.
Dong Qingyun remained stunned for a while before finally chuckling, "I didn't expect you to have the answers prepared... You must be copying them from the answer sheet! Deliberately getting three wrong so that we would believe these are your own answers! Haha!"
Su Cen had no intention of arguing with him and found it difficult to explain, because indeed, how could someone who was always in the middle-to-lower range suddenly be able to solve problems typically reserved for top students Such a situation would naturally raise suspicions. Therefore, not explaining anything was the best course of action.
Seeing Su Cen's silence, Cheng Yun and her sister, who had initially been half-believing and half-doubting, lowered their opinions of him even further; they thought he might have pulled off a miracle and solved these difficult exercises. However, to their disappointment, it turned out that he was using an uninteresting tactic aimed at gaining attention. Both girls simultaneously let out a "hmph" before leaving.
On the other hand, Dong Qingyun breathed a huge sigh of relief; Su Cen had just been cheating all along. If he could have completed this set and achieved a ninety-seven percent accuracy rate honestly, then that would truly be encountering a genius! an inner admiration for him, so they supported his pursuit of Tang Wu wholeheartedly. Although they knew that Su Can already had someone in mind, seeing him sitting next to Lin Luoran still couldn't...
