Summer Green Apples

Chi Sui always knew his grades after each exam.

He felt he did fairly well on the test, but his score was only around 130, unless his essay perfectly captured the examiner's preferences and earned him a perfect score.

Otherwise, you basically wouldn't get such a high score.

The later the exam papers are distributed, the higher the score will be.

"Chi Sui, 131."

Xu Jiyang turned his head in shock, "Holy crap, who scored above 135?"

Li Qian, sitting in the front row, clutched her textbook and, along with the rest of the class, turned her head to glance at Chi Sui.

No matter the time, this person always has a nonchalant and arrogant demeanor.

Wearing a red and white striped school uniform short-sleeved shirt, which was washed clean.

Li Li sighed, "Your classical Chinese answers were utter nonsense. The examiner probably just liked your handwriting. If it were me, you definitely wouldn't have gotten 130."

Chi Sui: "Then I'm quite lucky."

Li Li disliked his glib tongue, so she picked up the test paper and patted him on the shoulder.

Chi Sui took the exam paper and quickly went back.

Li Qian could no longer see him.

She slowly exhaled, then looked at Li Li.

Her exam paper hasn't been returned yet.

Her deskmate leaned over, smiling and congratulating her, "Qianqian, you're sure to get the highest score again."

Li Qian shook her head. "I didn't write my essay well, so it probably wasn't me."

My deskmate said, "Who else could it be but you?"

My deskmate leaned closer and said, "Chi Suidu only got 131, you must have gotten the highest score."

Li Qian felt elated by the praise, but she tried her best to suppress her joy.

"Okay, it's our class representative's turn."

Li Li's serious expression finally eased, and she looked at Li Qian with a smile, "Come on, 137, that's in the top three of the whole grade."

When Li Qian left her seat to collect her test paper, she discovered that there was another test paper underneath her.

She suddenly couldn't feel happy.

who can that be?

Xu Jiyang turned his head and looked at Ji Xiwen in astonishment. "Sis, haven't you handed out the test papers yet?"

Ji Xiwen shook her head. "No."

Xu Jiyang opened his mouth and closed it again, opened his mouth and closed it again, finally managing to squeeze out a sentence: "Terrifying."

"Ji, Xi, Wen." Li Li looked over with a smile, "Come on, little darling, the only one in our whole school who's 140."

Li Qian had already returned to her seat. Upon hearing this, she subconsciously gripped the corner of the exam paper.

People around them were already discussing it.

After all, getting a perfect score in math is not common, and getting this score in Chinese is already quite rare.

This new transfer student actually scored so high; no wonder he was transferred directly to Class Two.

Li Qian didn't say a word, she just stared blankly as Li Li smiled and praised Ji Xiwen, and finally said "Keep up the good work" before letting her go back.

As soon as he returned to his seat, Xu Jiyang said very earnestly, "Boss, may I take a look at your exam paper?"

Sui Yu turned her head and said, "I want one too."

Ji Xiwen readily handed her the test paper.

Ji Xiwen has been in this class for almost two weeks, and has remained quiet and unnoticed.

Aside from hanging out with Zhang Qingyan and Luo Wenjing, he rarely speaks to anyone else.

This is the first time she has ever felt so prominent.

The morning passed, and the test papers for Chinese, Politics, and History were handed out.

Ji Xiwen achieved the highest score in all three subjects.

During lunch, Xu Jiyang did some calculations and suddenly became very anxious, "Brother, I feel like you're going to lose your top spot in the grade."

Chi Sui didn't take it to heart, "If we can't save it, we can't save it."

Li Junyu took a bite of the braised pork and exclaimed, "Oh no, what hope do I have of being in the top three of my grade?"

"It's probably gone."

Xu Jiyang looked regretful. "You've always been third. This new student got a perfect score on such a difficult math test last time, so he'll probably get a high score this time too. As long as his geography and English scores aren't too bad, his total score will definitely be higher than yours."

"It's boring."

Li Junyu sighed.

Xu Jiyang stroked his chin. "I really didn't expect this transfer student to have such good grades."

Another corner of the restaurant,

"Ji Xiwen Ji Xiwen Ji Xiwen!!!"

Luo Wenjing immediately started repeating herself, "You're so amazing, why didn't you say so before? You're being too modest."

"I really didn't."

Ji Xiwen said helplessly, "My previous school was far from here, and the questions were simpler, so they weren't very useful as a reference."

Zhang Qingyan lowered her head and ate a couple of bites of rice, then suddenly said, "You'd better be careful, there's definitely someone who doesn't like you."

Class Two is almost entirely composed of top students.

But top students are different too.

Some people are particularly concerned about grades, including the grades of others; these people tend to be quite envious.

"It doesn't matter." Ji Xiwen's expression was calm. "There's no way to keep a low profile about this."

Zhang Qingyan was taken aback, then said from the bottom of her heart, "Awesome."

"Don't pay attention to these people," Luo Wenjing said. "There are relatively few petty people in our class. Look at your deskmate, he's easygoing and never gets involved in these kinds of things."

The top-ranked students in Class 2 liked to stick together and created a separate small group.

Even Li Junyu was in the group, only Chi Sui wasn't.

Ji Xiwen: "Why didn't he go in?"

"He's so arrogant, he didn't even join our class group chat," Luo Wenjing said.

During lunch break.

Li Qian, carrying a box of small cakes she had bought from outside, knocked on the door of a dormitory on the third floor.

I knocked several times before someone answered the door.

"Who the hell is it?"

A furious curse rang out from inside the door.

Li Qian shuddered in fright.

The dormitory door suddenly opened from the inside, and a girl with burgundy hair pulled it open. She was wearing a crop top, and the air conditioner was probably set to the lowest temperature.

The cold air was billowing out aggressively.

The girl, with an arrogant air, sized Li Qian up and down. "Who are you looking for?"

Li Qian pursed her lips. "Is Li Zhaozhao here?"

The girl glanced at her, then turned her head away. "Sister Zhao, someone's looking for you."

A short-haired woman walked by, munching on a spicy snack.

If Ji Xiwen were here, she would definitely recognize him as the mushroom-headed guy she bumped into back then.

"What is it?"

Strictly speaking, Li Zhaozhao looks like a good student, with fair skin, a bowl cut hairstyle, and simple clothes.

However, she has a slight pallor, which makes her staring at others a little scary.

This is more in line with her status as the eldest sister.

"Swish."

Li Qian handed her the small cake, smiling ingratiatingly, "This is for you."

"..."

In dormitory 217.

Ji Xiwen turned her head and sneezed.

My right eyelid twitched.

I have a strange, bad feeling about this.

Her intuition about this was quite accurate.

Ji Xiwen covered herself with the blanket and thought for a while, but couldn't think of anyone she had offended.

So I mentally went through a series of dates in modern history, and soon fell asleep.

The first class in the afternoon was math. Compared to the slow and torturous teaching of the Chinese teacher, the bald man was obviously more straightforward and handed the test paper directly to Suiyu, asking her to distribute it.
