C20 Gone Crazy
Taken aback by his unexpected question, Qin Loong stood petrified in place for a moment before muttering, "What do you mean?"
"Teacher Yang, you should talk to him instead," Ye Hong said lightly.
Yang Daoshen's expression sunk to the depths of the ocean. In all the years he had been a teacher in Anming County, he had never encountered such a ridiculous situation from his students before.
He then held up the stack of papers Ye Hong gave him and said coldly, "Using only the knowledge learned from the second-year math textbook, there is just one way to solve this problem."
"However, the answer Ye Hong gave me consisted of a total of five methods!"
"Three of the methods only taught to third-year students while the other two methods reserved for students in university!"
*Gasp!*
All the students in the classroom gawked in disbelief, seeming as though their eyes were about to pop out of their sockets.
They knew Ye Hong was good at English, but who knew he would be good at math as well!
To think that such a talented person had been shunned and ridiculed by them the entire time.
Just when his classmates lowered their heads in shame, Yang Daoshen continued, "Qin Loong, I originally didn't want to go too far with this matter, only wanting to teach both of you a lesson. However... *Sigh...*"
Letting out a heavy sigh, Yang Daoshen looked at him and announced, "I hereby declare that Qin Loong's qualification to participate in the competition has been revoked!"
"How is this possible...? I don't buy it! " Qin Loong lost his mind and shook his head crazily, "Then tell me, why did you borrow Zhao Bo's math textbook even though you had the ability to solve the problem?"
Ye Hong scratched his nose and said nonchalantly: "Don't misunderstand, I just like to use math textbooks as a cover for my cup noodles."
"..."
Qin Loong fell back onto his chair and kept shaking his head — obviously hit hard by his response.
When his table partner saw this, he quietly shifted his body and kept his distance from Qin Loong.
In the end, Ye Hong achieved an absolute victory.
From then onward, no one in the class dared to look at him with even a hint of contempt anymore.
On the other hand, not only did Qin Loong fail to get his revenge against Ye Hong, he even took a huge blow to his reputation.
Ye Hong thought to himself: "This guy should have learned his lesson now, right?"
The morning quietly passed by with each lesson.
During the ten minute breaks between classes, however, Ye Hong's desk would always end up becoming the most crowded place.
Both the male and female students gathered over at his desk to ask him questions and get to know him.
The group of students surrounded Ye Hong's table like ants attracted to a sweet scent.
Occasionally, the teachers and students of the other classes would pass by the classroom and be taken aback by the unexpected scene — suspecting that some kind of celebrity or genius had appeared in Class 18.
Ye Hong — at a loss whether to laugh or cry — nevertheless patiently answered each of his classmates' questions.
However, some female classmates went too far with their schemes. Disguising their intents with the excuse of asking questions, they kept getting into contact and rubbing their bodies against Ye Hong.
Although he enjoyed those feelings, Ye Hong flinched and felt a shiver down his spine after noticing the traces of killing intent lingering in Zhang Xuewei's eyes.
As for Qin Loong, Yang Daoshen seemed to have dragged him into the office to teach him a lesson. Upon his return, however, he had immediately disappeared from the classroom with a trace.
*Ding! Ling! Ling~!*
As the bell for lunch break rang, the students of Zhicai High School proceeded to enjoy their two precious hours of rest.
In an alley beside Zhicai High School, two figures — one tall and skinny while the other short and chubby — stood waiting at the location.
When they saw Ye Hong coming out of the school gate, the two of them immediately rushed over and wrapped their arms around Ye Hong's shoulders, nudging him in his sides shortly after.
"Yo, where have you disappeared to for the past few days?"
"What happened to our promise for spending the rest of our high school years playing games in the arcade?"
"Stop messing around, I have business to discuss with you guys." Ye Hong, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, broke himself away from the two.
