Chapter 42 - Who Dares to Underestimate Her (2/2)

“Good for you that you can count in your head. But you might want to be more careful in the exam.” Mrs. Yang bent over slightly to caution this student who had a pure smile in a whisper, “When you finish, you’d better review all your answers.”

At this moment, Ye Jian had completed the quiz. Mrs. Yang, who had remembered every correct answer, had given her the full credit in her mind already.

She collected Ye Jian’s exam paper and asked Ye Jian for a conversation outside the cla.s.sroom.

Xie Sifeng smiled with contempt on her face. So what Ye Jian had changed? She was still an idiot who couldn’t pa.s.s any exams. Tut! Who gave her the right to be c.o.c.ky?

The whole cla.s.s had been used to Ye Jian’s handing in her exam paper in advance. Everyone pretty much had the same idea that Ye Jian would end in the last place, as usual.

The two math sessions were taken up by the quiz. After speaking to Mrs. Yang, Ye Jian returned to her dormitory to relax.

In the afternoon, the PE session was canceled. Mrs. Yang came into the cla.s.sroom, holding the exam paper of the math quiz this morning. The students looked at her nervously. She asked the students to collect their exam paper one by one when their names were called.

“Old rule. I will only read aloud your scores if you have full marks,” said Mrs. Yang. Strict as she may be, she was also considerate about the students’ feelings. “Zhang Wenjin, 100; An Jiaxin, 100…”

Those were the students who were usually excellent in math. When Ye Jian’s name was mentioned, everyone seemed calm because they thought it was a mistake.

Ye Jian was the last one to collect her exam paper. Mrs. Yang required her to stay beside the podium.

Pus.h.i.+ng her gla.s.ses upward from her nose bridge, Mrs. Yang looked at the students seriously and said in a deep voice, “This time, I’m going to praise Ye Jian in particular. She has scored the full mark. I saw with my own eyes that she finished all the answers within 30 minutes.”

“Now get rid of that incredulous looks on your faces. Don’t a.s.sume Ye Jian can’t accomplish the things that are beyond your capacities. She has been working hard when you don’t notice her diligence.”

She tilted her head and said to Ye Jian, “Lend me your math course book and notebook.”
