Happy Youngsters: Lin Miaomiao and Yingzi are vying to have babies!

It's only been ten minutes and he's already handing in his paper again?

Is this guy really answering questions randomly or submitting a blank paper? Otherwise, he'd always be the first to hand in his paper.

Li Meng frowned when she heard that Xia Ze was going to hand in his paper.

She was surprised but mostly angry that the exam was handed in before 30 minutes had passed.

That's too arrogant; they didn't even bother to get checked.

Thinking of this, Li Meng said directly, "The school rules stipulate that you must have 30 minutes before you can hand in your paper."

Hearing this, Xia Ze felt helpless.

Since it's a school rule, I'll just wait in the classroom for a while.

With no other option, Xia Ze could only lie on the exam paper and close his eyes in a daze. Little did he know that he would fall asleep right before the exam was about to end.

Li Meng glanced at the clock.

There are ten minutes left until the end of the math exam.

She couldn't help but look at Xia Ze. Was this guy really going to sleep until the exam was over?

Thinking of this, Li Meng couldn't help but wake Xia Ze up.

"Xia Ze! Xia Ze!"

"You're sleeping during such an important exam? Even if you did finish the paper, don't you need to check it?"

As Xia Ze's math teacher, Li Meng naturally hoped that Xia Ze could get good grades.

Seeing that he hadn't checked the paper for a long time, Li Meng was somewhat angry.

Xia Ze opened his eyes and realized he had slept for so long: "Teacher, can we hand in our papers now?"

Chapter 53: Becoming the Teacher's Sweetheart

Upon hearing this, Li Meng's anger soared.

If there weren't other students from other classes in the exam room, she would definitely have said something, given her temperament.

Suppressing her urge to explode, Li Meng said in a rather stern tone, "You can hand in your paper now."

Xia Ze naturally understood why Li Meng was angry; she was worried that he might lose points unexpectedly if he didn't check the paper.

"Teacher, I'll hand in my paper now. I've checked it four or five times already; my eyes are practically numb from looking at it so much."

Li Meng was stunned when she heard this.

When did Xia Ze check the exam papers? She didn't notice it while she was on the podium.

This guy is not only arrogant, but he's also learned to lie.

It seems I need to discipline him properly after the exams, at the very least to change his arrogant personality.

Xia Ze handed in his paper and left the examination room.

The math exam ended not long after, and Xia Xue and Qiao Yingzi, being good students, came out.

Just like in the morning, the group gathered together and began discussing the answer.

There are usually five exams in the first year of high school.

After finishing the math exam, the afternoon will be just enough time to finish the other subjects.

School is about to end.

Inside the teacher's office.

The math teacher from another class, who was assisting Li Meng in proctoring the exam, sat in a chair and kept talking about how Xia Ze had fallen asleep in the exam room.

"Teacher Li, Xia Ze in your class is also a talent. During the two-hour exam, he slept for an hour and a half."

The other teachers in the office couldn't help but burst into laughter at her words.

In fact, wherever there are people, there is a world of its own.

Even teachers in schools sometimes engage in power struggles, since students' grades directly impact their performance evaluations.

Li Meng, a teacher who had only been at the elite high school for a year, was able to lead an elite class, which made many teachers envious.

"Xia Ze probably isn't a very good student. This morning when I was assisting Director Pan in proctoring the exam, he handed in his paper in less than thirty minutes."

Invigilators are usually divided into chief examiner and deputy chief examiner.

The speaker was another one of the proctors for the Chinese exam that morning.

"30 minutes?"

"I reckon he didn't even write an essay."

"Teacher Li, Fang Yifan and Jiang Tianhao in your class are already quite mischievous, but now Xia Ze has emerged as well."

The other teachers appeared to be comforting Li Meng, but their words always carried a hint of mockery.

Li Meng felt both bitter and angry as she listened to their mocking laughter.

She thought for a moment and then said, "Xia Ze has just transferred back from abroad, so he may not be used to it yet."

Li Meng's words clearly meant she was helping Xia Ze, since even if Xia Ze wasn't a good student, he was still a student in her class.

But the other teachers laughed even more unrestrainedly upon hearing this, believing that Li Meng was deceiving herself.

Just as Li Meng was about to defend her student, Director Pan walked in with a test paper and answer sheet.

What he was holding was Xia Ze's test paper and answer sheet.

He walked confidently and proudly to the teachers and placed the answer sheet on the table.

"Is there some misunderstanding between you?" In fact, Pan Yuansheng had arrived outside the office a few minutes earlier.

However, he didn't come in immediately. Instead, he turned around and went back to his private office to get Xia Ze's answer sheet.

"Huh?" Clearly, the teachers didn't understand what that meant.

Pan Yuansheng didn't explain, but instead turned the answer sheet over to the front, and only then did the others understand.

A Chinese language teacher from an advanced class picked up Xia Ze's answer sheet and began to check it carefully.

The more he examined it, the more shocked he became, and he couldn't even control the expression on his face.

Other teachers couldn't help but come over when they saw his appearance.

Ten minutes later.

Looking at the answer sheet filled with checkmarks, all the teachers who had previously thought Xia Ze was a poor student fell silent.

"Well? I haven't graded them yet. Let's discuss how many points we should give them?" Pan Yuansheng was very satisfied to see the shocked expressions on their faces.

These teachers usually only care about attracting good students and boosting their performance, and they don't care about students with poor grades at all, or even look down on them.

Pan Yuansheng felt extremely satisfied seeing them get humiliated today.

“I think it deserves full marks,” a female Chinese language teacher said after a long silence.

"How about we deduct two points from the essay? After all, no student in our school has ever gotten a perfect score on a Chinese exam."

Pan Yuansheng frowned upon hearing another teacher's suggestion.

Are you kidding me?

This essay is so captivating and perfect, there's nothing that could be deducted from it!

Li Meng, who was overjoyed, quickly spoke up: "Why deduct points? You all saw Xia Ze's essay quality with your own eyes."

Although Li Meng is Xia Ze's math teacher, Xia Ze is her student.

At this point, she would definitely stand up and speak for him.

"That's right. This essay is beautifully written, with elegant diction, and it echoes the theme. There isn't even a single typo. I think giving it full marks is not an exaggeration at all."

Pan Yuansheng had always liked Xia Ze's essay, so he naturally stood up to support Li Meng.

The other teachers, seeing that even the head of the teaching department said so, naturally agreed.

Seeing that all the teachers agreed, Pan Yuansheng happily wrote 150 points on Xia Ze's answer sheet.

"By the way, Ms. Li Meng, do you have Xia Ze's math answer sheet too?"

After grading Xia Ze's Chinese answer sheet, Pan Yuansheng became curious about Xia Ze's math score.

Although Pan Yunsheng had overheard Xia Ze sleeping during the exam, he intuitively felt that Xia Ze's math score was definitely not bad.

"I haven't had time to grade Xia Ze's paper yet."

"Well, since everyone's here, let's go over Xia Ze's papers with the answers."

The other teachers did not object when Director Pan made the suggestion.

Moreover, because of what had just happened, they were also curious to see Xia Ze's mathematical abilities.

Li Meng found Xia Ze's answer sheet and placed it on the table, then took out the answers to the exam paper from the desk drawer.

The other teachers gathered around and began grading Xia Ze's test paper, checking the answers against the provided text.
