C1 Minimum in School
The weather in early summer was as gentle and beautiful as a girl's, and the gentleness made one feel comfortable. The sunlight was very warm, causing one to feel drowsy.
All the students in the class were talking about the exam, but Han Qing didn't have this thought. He focused on the scenery outside the window and prayed that he wouldn't be last, or else he would be too ashamed to meet his uncle.
"We will now announce the results of the exam."
Just as Han Qing was deep in his thoughts, the door to the classroom was pushed open. The homeroom teacher, Ma Qinglin, walked in with a report card in his hand and walked to the podium.
Seeing Ma Qinglin walk in, Han Qing's heart tightened. Ma Qinglin picked up the school report card and started to read the results of the midterm exam.
"First place, Han Xue. Total score: 737 points."
When Ma Qinglin said the first name, the surrounding people immediately exclaimed.
"Damn, Han Xue is too awesome. She's only missing 13 out of 750 points. From the looks of it, it's not a problem for her to enter Tsinghua University or Peking University."
"Yeah, a bookworm is a bookworm, there's really no way to compete with a bookworm."
Seven hundred and thirty-seven points, not only could it be ranked first in this class, it could also be ranked in the top three of the entire school. There was an unwritten rule in the First High School. Every time the results were announced, the teacher would read the results out loud in advance.
Hearing the praises from the surrounding students, a faint smile appeared on Han Xue's beautiful face. She then looked at Han Qing, who was sitting in the last row.
"Shut up."
Ma Qinglin glared at the guys who were still talking in hushed tones, then shifted his gaze to Han Xue. His eyes were filled with kindness.
In the last two years, Han Xue's grades had always been among the top in the school, allowing him to receive quite a bit of the prize money. When this girl was admitted into a first-rate university, he would get even more of the prize money.
Thinking that he could save up a large amount of private money without telling his wife, Ma Qinglin was in a great mood.
"65th place, Zhou Zhengwen, overall score 200 points."
"Heh, I never thought that you would actually score two hundred and two points. You have an explanation for this with my old man."
The moment Ma Qinglin finished speaking, Zhou Zhengwen, who was sitting beside Han Qing, mumbled excitedly. Turning his head to look at Han Qing, Zhou Zhengwen saw the latter's lonely expression and immediately comforted him.
"Qing Zi, don't get angry, being last is not a big deal."
There were only 66 people in Class 4 in the past three years, and now that the name 65 was out, Han Qing was undoubtedly the last.
A wry smile appeared on his face, Han Qing nodded towards Zhou Zhengwen. At this moment, the eyes of all the students in the class were fixed on Ma Qinglin, waiting for him to announce the results for the last place.
"Last place, Han Qing, overall score 96 points."
With a trace of ridicule on his face, Ma Qinglin turned his gaze towards Han Qing and announced his result. When Han Qing heard that he had only scored ninety-six points, his body suddenly trembled.
He had thought that he would be able to get a few extra points in his performance, but he didn't expect that he would only get 96 points, not even reaching 100 points.
"Damn, 96 points. I don't think our school has ever had such a low score, right?"
"That's right, Han Qing is a genius. He only got 96 points. Now, he is going to be famous."
Yunhai's first high school was a high school, and those who were able to enter this school were all students with excellent grades. Of course, some students came in through other channels, but they were generally doing quite well.
The bitter smile on Han Qing's face became even wider as he buried his face in the table. He'd never thought that he would only score so little.
Han Qing really wanted to cry when he thought of his deceased parents. Besides, he couldn't tell his uncle about this result, as his aunt would probably kick him out of the house this time.
"Han Qing, come to my office."
After reading out the last person's exam results, Ma Qinglin glanced at Han Qing in disdain and said.
Standing up from the chair, Han Qing walked out of his seat and followed Ma Qinglin out of the classroom. Just as he closed the door, a burst of laughter came from the classroom.
Seeing Ma Qinglin's unfriendly gaze, Han Qing lowered his head and silently followed Ma Qinglin to the teacher's office.
"Han Qing, I can't stand you anymore."
The moment he entered the teacher's office, Ma Qinglin roared. His head, which did not have much hair to begin with, kept shaking, and his face was filled with anger.
Although Han Qing's class was not a Important Class, their overall results were still pretty good. In this mid-term exam, Han Qing only scored 96 points, which dragged down the class. He knew that Ma Qinglin would definitely go crazy.
"96 points. I really don't know how you did it. Do you know how much of a burden it would be for your class? I think you should just drop out of school. With your grade, you can't even get into university."
At this moment, there were no other teachers in the office, so Ma Qinglin's voice was very loud. In his first year of high school, Han Qing's grades had always been at the top, even Han Xue couldn't compare to him.
But since his parents died in an accident a year and a half ago, his grades have plummeted. Ma Qinglin had originally thought that he was just indulging in the pain of his parents' departure. Now, he completely understood that Han Qing was just a pile of mud that could not be helped to the wall.
"Teacher, I will work hard."
Han Qing looked at Ma Qinglin timidly and said in a low voice. He did not want to drop out of school because he did not know what he could do after he left.
Moreover, his uncle had always been full of hope for him. If he dropped out now, his uncle would definitely be sad.
"You will work hard? "Hmph hmph, with your silly brain, no matter how much effort you put in, it would all be in vain. I think it's better for you to scram out of school and find a construction site to carry the cement, that's what you're worth."
Ma Qinglin's patience had already run out. He didn't want Han Qing to drag down the class again. Otherwise, his prize money would be much less by the end of the year.
"Teacher, since I've paid the tuition fees, I should go to school. You shouldn't treat me like this."
Han Qing slowly clenched his fists. At this moment, his heart was filled with anger. Even though his results were poor, he shouldn't have been like this as a teacher. Not only did she not properly teach him, she even told him to scram out of school.
Ma Qinglin just sneered and said, "I was just thinking for your uncle's sake. Your results are simply a waste of the tuition that he paid for you. Alright, you can go back now. I will discuss this with your uncle."
Ma Qinglin waved his hand impatiently. He never wanted to see Han Qing again. Gritting his teeth and looking at Ma Qinglin for a while, Han Qing finally sighed and left the teacher's office without saying anything.
