"Physics…81 points…Chemistry…89 points…" Professor Zhang smiled before turning the page, "Mathematics…81 points…"
''Campus Belle is a perfectionist…"
''I can't believe she scored so much in a surprise test.''
''We are classmates for years. Don't you know how intelligent she is?"
"I know but still a bit amazed."
''She is the ice princess of Imperial University after all. Capable of doing anything."
''English…82 points and 94 points in Chinese, "Professor Zhang glanced at Li Shuang who nodded politely, ''Total 427 points out of 500 points. As usual, Li Shuang remains in the first place. Well done!"
The class erupted with claps as most of the guys cheered for Li Shuang while the girl had an aloof expression on her face like nothing could faze her in the world.
"Silence," Professor Zhang adjusted her glasses, "You all are dancing like you are the one who got the marks. I'm really disappointed with your marks. Do you think you will be able to graduate if you keep on studying like this?"
The class immediately quietened down while she continued, "Those who are in bottom five positions are coming to extra classes from the next week.."
The student exchanged glances before fixating their gazes on Yu Mei and a few other students who are expected to be in the last position as usual.
They knew they didn't have to worry about extra classes as long as they had these fellow classmates were there.
Unaware of their expectant gazes on her, Yu Mei had her head lowered on the desk as she slept peacefully, her drool gathering at the corner of her mouth.
"Next…Yu Mei Zhen…Chinese.." Professor Zhang paused noticing the weird silence in the classroom. She tilted her head from the result sheets and followed the student's gaze to look at a certain sleeping student, "Yu Mei Zhen…"
The girl did not move an inch.
"Student Yu..?" Professor Zhang threw a small piece of chalk towards her which perfectly hit the girl's shoulder.
"What will it take for you to let me sleep peacefully?" The girl tilted her upwards and mumbled in a hoarse voice without opening her eyes.
The class erupted in laughter.
''Student Yu, is this your bedroom?"
Yu Mei opened her eyes in an instant. Rubbing her eyes with the back of her hand, she glanced around only to find the students glancing at her with mocking gazes.
She stood up, "I apologize, Professor. I was a bit tired and dozed off in the classroom," She bowed slightly.
Professor Zhang nodded her head, inwardly thinking that who started the rumor that Yu Mei Zhen was mannerless.
Yu Mei sat back on her seat and sighed softly.
Jun Zixuan and her stayed awake for the whole night yesterday, talking about random things and she did not feel sleepy at any moment. But the moment she stepped inside the class, it was as if all the angels were lulling her to sleep.
''So, let's continue with your results…." Professor Zhang glancing at her.
''Results?" She mumbled under her breath but it did not take her long to be reminded about the surprise test from yesterday.
''Chinese…7 points…"
The class erupted in laughter in an instant.
''See...No matter how she changes, she is still that same piece of shit.."
"What change? She has just become a bit thin and a little beautiful. She is still way below our campus belle."
''Haven't you heard that she has become an old man's mistress now. Aren't you afraid?"
''Afraid my ass…"
"I think that ugly old man must have sponsored her or else how could an illegitimate child like her afford to be dolled up yesterday?''
"Yes..Look at her scoring 7…She should just get a big fat zero."
Since they were backbenchers, they did not keep their voices low letting Yu Mei listen to all their gossips.
She rolled her eyes. 0 or 7, it will be her marks in the end. Why are they jumping like monkeys and acting like some country toppers?
'The ugly old man you are talking about will make all of you look like garbage if stood next to you,' She thought to herself. After all, Jun Zixuan was a man who will have the spotlight on him no matter where he went.
Humph! Calling him ugly…You should just get your dictionary updated first and look at yourselves.
"I see my students are very eager for some punishments," Professor Zhang coldly said.
The class was back to its peace again and she turned the page before continuing, "Mathematics…1…" She adjusted her glasses a bit and continued, "100 points.."
"Did the professor pick up the wrong papers?"
Gasps could be heard in the classes.
"Physics…98 points…Chemistry 93 points…" Professor Zhang turned the page before continuing, ''English..71 points... Total 370 points… Yu Mei Zhen's scores get the second position for the class test."
Yu Mei nodded slightly without much expression on her face.
"I don't believe this.."
"Has Prof. read the wrong results?"
"Do you think Prof. can make such mistakes?"
"That's impossible. She will not give anyone extra one point by mistake."
"I refuse to believe this.."
Professor Zhang glanced at Yu Mei Zhen, "Well done. Your scores as excellent but you need improvement in my subject…"
Yu Mei pursed her lips. She was sitting in the Chinese class, was it not enough already? How was she supposed to improve in the subject she dreaded?
"Since your scores are second to Li Shuang, you should come here and take a seat beside her.."
Yu Mei paused for a moment before nodding. She picked up her bag and stood up before walking towards the 1st row under everyone's shocking gazes.
The guy sitting beside Li Shuang stood up giving her the space to move there. She placed her bag there and took a sit.
''Next…"
"Professor, can you please change my seat?" Li Shuang stood up.
Professor Zhang glanced at her, "You should know that sitting arrangements are always done according to your results.''
