Chapter 26: Mo Li’s Test Paper
Translator: Lonelytree
The class teacher scoffed from incredulous laughter when she heard the challenge in Mo Li’s words, “Is this how the Mo Family teach their daughter? By talking back to their teacher?”
Seeing how ostentatiously the class teacher looked down on her, Mo Li really thought this whole situation was laughably surreal.?Isn’t it a teacher’s job to be nurturing? But nowadays, it looks like anyone can be an educator. This woman is a shame to her occupation, no educator should trample on their students’ confidence.?
“You said it yourself that we can go once we’re done with the paper and I did, so why can’t I leave?” Respect went both ways, Mo Li was not going to respect this woman who didn’t even respect the sanctity of her own career.
“You’re done with your paper?” The class teacher repeated in extreme mockery. Then she chuckled deviously, “How can you possibly be done with your paper when Qiao Qing is not even done with hers? This is clearly a trick to bypass the rules. Have you no shame?”
The other students snickered among themselves.?Have Mo Li bumped her head against the headboard when she ran into her own brother? The bitch is not even making sense now.
Qiao Qing is not only the first place student in our class, she is the first place student of our school. Qiao Qing is not someone the bitch can rival. She must have lost her mind.? freewe bnovel.com
“Miss, if you ask me, this is because someone cannot stand sitting idly anymore. Why don’t you let her go? If a person don’t even understand what an integral number is, what else can they do but sit around and do nothing. Even I’d be bored after 40 minutes of doing nothing.”
“That’s right, Miss. At least she has made the effort to write something, nonsensical as they may be. At least she has tried. Ha ha ha ha...” Like the teacher, Mo Li’s classmates also assumed Mo Li had simply doodled on her paper. They all burst into laughter.
Mo Li took in her laughing classmates and frowned with confusion. These people hadn’t even finished their own papers but they had time to stop and mock her?
Mo Li in the original story did not like answering test papers not because she was an idiot. In contrary, Mo Li was very good in liberal arts and was acceptable in math. She simply refused to answer certain papers because those subjects’ teachers looked down on her, and this was how she retaliated against them.
As evidenced in the previous chapter, Mo Li scored well in her Chinese language, history and politics classes because these were the few teachers who didn’t look at her with prejudice. Particularly the Chinese language teacher had great faith in Mo Li, the teacher saw the potential in the rumored wild child and believed it was the system’s problem which led Mo Li to the state that she was.
Faced with a whole class of mockery, even from the teacher, Mo Li was unaffected. “You refuse to grade my paper and refuse to let me go. What is it that you want?”
The class teacher looked at Mo Li like she was crazy. But that befuddlement only lasted for a second before she put on a mask of professional friendliness. It did nothing to hide the disgust and derision in her eyes though.?Since you wish to be humiliated, then so be it. Do you think the IMO is kiddy work??
Based on the class teacher’s understanding of Mo Li’s standard, it would be a miracle if the girl got even a single question right.?The Mo Family would do better cherishing their adopted daughter than to waste money on a piece of human garbage like this Mo Li.
“Fine, since you are so confident, then we’ll get the Subject Leader to come and grade your paper. He’s the one who came up with the questions anyway. The result is supposed to be released next week but since Miss Mo insisted on it, I will have the Subject Leader come to grade your paper in front of the whole class.”
When the other students heard that, their eyes glowed with sinister excitement. Their Mathematics Subject Leader was a math fanatic. He would never forgive anyone who dared to insult the sanctity of math.
Mo Li was dead meat this time. She should be thankful if the Subject Leader didn’t tear her a new one.
10 minutes later, the class teacher led the Subject Leader, Professor Tao to their classroom. The senior professor was clearly displeased. He was studying a Sudoku based on calculus and theoretical physics designed by Oxford University when he was interrupted. He just had an idea but the idea left him due to the interruption.
“Professor Tao, this student said that she has already finished the paper and she wishes for you to grade it in person.” Prof Tao took the paper with one hand. His tone was unfriendly due to the disturbance. “Is this the work of that girl, Qiao Qing? The equation shown here is quite good, and 40 minutes is just about right to finish the paper.”
Qiao Qing’s pen shook. The paper was actually quite difficult for her. There were a few questions that she was not confident about. To think Prof. Tao would mistake Mo Li’s paper for hers, it pricked her heart deeply.
“Prof Tao, this is not Qiao Qing’s paper but it is done by this student over here, Mo Li.” freew(e)bnovel.(c)om
When he heard the name Mo Li, Professor Tao Wen raised his head. Even for someone like him, who focused more on his research, Tao Wen had heard about Mo Li. It was hard not to, she was everything people would talk about at school.
But Tao Wen was never one to pay attention to unfounded rumors. However, he was quite surprised when he learned that it was Mo Li who finished the test in 40 minutes.
“According to Mo Li, this paper is too easy for her and she believes she got all the questions correct. So she requested for you to come over to the classroom in person to grade her paper. She would like to know if her standard would do well in IMO.”
