"Hmm?"

Jiang Nian was startled, nodding like a little rabbit.

"Okay, teacher."

Qi Xue glanced at him and walked away briskly.

"Hmm."

Just as he was going downstairs, he ran into Yu Zhiyi coming back from work in the reading room, full of grievances.

"Where are you going?"

At the words, Jiang Nian looked her up and down.

"Why ask so many questions? Anyway, it’s not the reading room. Babbling, has your work finished?"

Saying this, he understood Yu Zhiyi well. It was like flipping a switch, and she immediately flew into a rage.

"Do you have any shame? I did your work for you!"

"Oh."

"You’re a grown man, aren’t you embarrassed?" Yu Zhiyi was furious, grinding her teeth, having to work during the big exam break.

After all, only seniors have weekly tests.

"A man?" Jiang Nian, like a robot, wore a face full of confusion, "But I like girls."

Yu Zhiyi: "..."

"Want to know my bra size?"

"What is it?"

"Go to hell!!" Yu Zhiyi ground her teeth, passing by him with a sidestep, still having to work tomorrow.

That’s the price of not having to run the exercises, but she earned it herself.

Working every day, she would curse Jiang Nian once.

Black-hearted thing!!

In the math office, Qi Xue waved her hand.

"Come here, lend me a hand."

Jiang Nian walked over, taking a deliberate glance. Xuebao’s desk was tidy and clean, and there was no trash in the bin.

Tea was brewed, and the yellow water surface reflected the lights.

"Teacher, what’s up?"

"The math weekly test is coming up, and one question has an incorrect printed answer." Qi Xue beckoned him to come closer.

With a swish, the papers spread on the table.

Qi Xue, unlike other female teachers, moved swiftly. But her actions weren’t too grand, possessing a finesse.

"The answer to question six, change the ’c’ to..."

She corrected the wrong answer with a red pen, then lifted her head to speak.

"Could you run to each class on the third floor for me? Just jot it down and have them correct it."

The third floor?

"Okay, teacher." Jiang Nian didn’t refuse, as it was an easy task, "Uh, anything else?"

As for the time it took away from his problem-solving... well, it affected him for sure. He’d just skip doing a problem he couldn’t solve anyway.

Though he wouldn’t score, writing it all out was his last stubbornness.

At the words, Qi Xue unconsciously sat up straight. Turning the tables, being a teacher, she was unexpectedly tense in front of a student.

She glanced at the desk, then at the trash bin.

"No..... not really."

"Alright." Jiang Nian took the papers and left.

Until someone left the office, Qi Xue finally breathed a sigh of relief, then felt somewhat amused; this was seamless.

Half a minute later, a male teacher entered the office, turned his head to glance at Qi Xue, and suddenly froze.

"Teacher Qi, is there an inspection by the leadership at noon?"

"Hmm?" Qi Xue froze too, glanced at her desk, "No, I just tidied up for fun."

"Oh, I see." The male teacher then sighed with relief, happily returning to his workspace to slack off.

He still had to invigilate later, but it was no matter.

Slacking was possible even during invigilation!

After the exam, he’d count how many boys and girls there were. Then tally how many were wearing black clothes, how many floral ones.

Count the students, then count the floor tiles, then the glass.

Ring ring ring!!!

After the exam started, Jiang Nian went up to the third floor.

Starting with the Olympic class four, he entered the classroom. While announcing the notice, he looked at the beauties living next door.

"For question six, the answer ’c’ was printed wrong, change it to..."

Song Xiyun saw Jiang Nian enter the four class’s classroom and was first stunned. Then, seeing him serious, couldn’t help but want to laugh.

Just as her mouth started to curve, her eyes met his.

"Cough cough!" She hastily coughed, promptly averting her gaze.

"Pretentious, huh." Xu Qianqian rested her head on her hand, watching the little guy on the podium sneer non-stop.

When he finished writing the corrections, their eyes met as he turned. Almost simultaneously, their eyes squinted, mouths disdainfully curving.

"Tch! (x2)"

He continued downwards, notifying each class. Upon entering the former class of those promoted, nearly the entire class jeered, and the atmosphere instantly turned lively.

Le Zhi was directly stunned, taking a while to return to his senses.

"Wow, Jiang Nian?"

During the last city joint exam, with Jiang Nian’s help, he narrowly escaped a tight spot, saving face through sheer effort.

After Jiang Nian and Zhou Yuting left, he was within the top five in his class.

Rising grades brought many benefits, the most obvious being an improved family status and doubled pocket money.

After that, Le Zhi wanted to invite Jiang Nian for a meal to mend their relationship but was gently turned down, as Jiang Nian genuinely had no time.

Le Zhi could only marvel at this former friend’s rapid elevation to promoted classes, increased scores, Motivational Star status, over 600 points within a few months.

Scoring high and earning awards were secondary, his shock lay in those 600 points. Across the school, such scoring students weren’t many.

It was just a regular weekly test, with exam discipline not being strict.

"Olympic class bigwig, damn!"

"Aluba him!"

"Keep it down, it’s exam time now."

Jiang Nian just smiled, finished the corrections and slipped away. Success brings flowers and applause around you.

Very real, but also human nature.

Fourth floor, Olympic class three’s classroom.

Li Qingrong finished the multiple-choice questions, glanced at the empty seat beside him, and couldn’t help drooping his gaze briefly.

Hmm?

Li Hua also noticed a rascal missing in the class, stood up and scanned the whole classroom.

"Where’s the byd Jiang Nian?"

"Here!!"

A figure burst in through the front door of the classroom, who else but Jiang Nian, even ignoring the invigilating Qingbao.

"Hua, reliant on fatherly love, huh?"

Following the words, the whole class burst into laughter.
