Returning to his senior year of high school, he went all in and made billions by buying at the botto

The following morning, in the senior high school teachers' office at the county's No. 1 High School.

On the first workday after the National Day holiday, the atmosphere in the office was unusually eerie and deathly quiet.

"Old Liu... come and take a look at this essay."

Wang, the head of the senior high school Chinese language teaching and research group, held a slightly crumpled answer sheet that had been passed around by many teachers. His fingers trembled slightly, and his eyes were full of disbelief. "This is an argumentative essay about economic cycles... How could a high school student write something like this? It's practically a report that could be published in a financial weekly!"

Team Leader Wang swallowed hard, pointing to the flamboyant handwriting on the paper: "If it weren't for the grading standards for college entrance exam essays, I would have given it a perfect score! Out of a total score of 130 in Chinese, he got the highest score in the entire school for Chinese just with this essay!"

The homeroom teacher, Liu Jianguo, was staring intently at the class's overall score summary on the computer screen and didn't hear what Group Leader Wang was saying at all.

He felt his vision blurring and his heart pounding wildly in his chest.

"Gulp."

Liu Jianguo swallowed hard, staring at the lone name at the very top of the form, his voice hoarse as if sandpaper rubbing together: "Teacher Wang... he's not just first in Chinese... look at his other grades..."

Several teachers nearby came over to take a look and immediately gasped in shock.

Mathematics: 150 points (out of 150)! English: 150 points (out of 150)! Chinese: 130 points! Science: 245 points! Total: 675 points!

"First in the class... third in the whole school?!" the math teacher exclaimed, his eyes practically popping out of their sockets. "This kid clearly left several big questions blank in his combined science exam, and he dragged his score up to this terrifying level just by relying on Chinese, math, and English! If he had put even a little effort into his combined science exam, he would definitely be number one, leaving the second-place student in the whole school by tens of points!"

Liu Jianguo slumped into his chair, his mind replaying the bet Chen Mo had made with him in the office before the holiday—the bet to drop out of school.

……

9:25 a.m., Senior Three Science Stream Elite Class.

The morning reading session had just ended, and the classroom was filled with a tense atmosphere as the monthly exam results were about to be announced.

Lin Yu, the class monitor in the front row, was loudly discussing the solution to the final math problem with several of his followers. He was full of confidence in his performance and would occasionally turn around to glance at Chen Mo, who was sitting in the back row, with a look of anticipation.

Chen Mo ignored the noise around him.

He used the stack of textbooks as cover to glance down at the phone screen on his lap.

At 9:30 a.m., the A-share market officially opened.

Just as he predicted last night, China Communications Construction, this infrastructure behemoth, was immediately locked at the daily limit by a terrifying buy order of over eight million lots at the opening, stimulated by extremely significant restructuring news!

A straight line, resembling the Chinese character "一", stretches across the very top of the candlestick chart.

There wasn't even a hint of unnecessary struggle or turnover on the trading board.

Chen Mo's initial investment of 200 million yuan saw his account value surge by 20 million yuan the instant the market opened!

Meanwhile, his personal account also perfectly captured the daily limit up.

Feeling refreshed, Chen Mo decisively turned off his phone screen and leaned back in his chair.

In my previous life, after Huaguo Jiaojian announced positive news, it hit the daily limit for fifteen consecutive days before starting to adjust. Then it started to rise again for ten consecutive days. In the past two months, I could have made a fortune just from Huaguo Jiaojian.

"Clang—"

The classroom door was pushed open, and the homeroom teacher, Liu Jianguo, walked in with a thin report card in hand and an extremely complicated expression.

The once noisy classroom instantly became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Su Qingyan, sitting in the front row, also straightened up slightly, her fair fingers gently twirling the pen.

As a top student who consistently ranked first in her grade, she had no worries about her grades. What flashed through her mind at this moment was the absurd bet she made with Chen Mo at the corner of the stairs before the holiday.

"Classmates, the difficulty of this city-wide joint exam is obvious to all, but in our class, a... no, a miracle has occurred." Liu Jianguo took a deep breath, his gaze sweeping over everyone with great complexity, and landed directly on Chen Mo in the last row.

"Now, let's announce the results. We'll start with the top ten."

"Tenth place, Zhao Qiang, 580 points." ... "Third place, Lin Yu, 635 points."

Upon hearing his name called, Lin Yu proudly raised his chin and straightened his back.

Despite the difficulty of the questions, he still managed to maintain his position in the top three, which made him extremely arrogant.

"Second place," Liu Jianguo paused, his voice tinged with disbelief, "Su Qingyan, 658 points. Ranked fifth in the entire school."

"Whoosh—"

The whole class erupted in uproar!

The pen in Su Qingyan's hand fell to the table with a "thud," her cool, peach-blossom eyes filled with astonishment.

She actually dropped to second place?! And she's only fifth in the whole school?!

How is that possible? Who surpassed her?!

Lin Yu was also dumbfounded. Even Su Qingyan was overshadowed. Could there be a hidden genius in the class?

Liu Jianguo pressed his hands down to signal everyone to be quiet, then loudly proclaimed the name in an almost reverent tone:

"Chen Mo is first in the class! 675 points! Third in the whole school!"

Dead silence.

At that moment, all fifty-plus students in the class seemed to have been collectively muted.

Everyone turned around as if they had seen a ghost, staring intently at Chen Mo, who was sitting in the corner of the classroom, idly twirling his pen.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Lin Yu jumped to his feet, his face flushed red. "Teacher Liu! He handed in a blank paper for the last monthly exam, how could he possibly get third place in the whole school this time? He definitely cheated!"

"Cheat? Show me how you get a perfect score!!"

Liu Jianguo slammed the report card on the podium and shouted sternly, "Chen Mo got a perfect score in math! A perfect score in English! And 130 in Chinese, the highest score in the whole school! If he hadn't left several of the more difficult science questions blank, he would be number one in the whole school right now! This paper was graded by the city, tell me where he cheated?!"

These resounding words struck everyone's hearts like a heavy hammer.

Perfect scores in both math and English! Highest score in Chinese in the whole school! And a 245 on the science section's open-ended questions!

Is this even human?! This is clearly a case of being outmatched!

Lin Yu deflated like a punctured balloon, his face pale as he slumped back into his chair, feeling as if his earlier smugness made him look like a complete clown.

Meanwhile, Su Qingyan, who was sitting directly in front of Chen Mo, was also experiencing a buzzing in her head.

She turned around and looked at the boy who remained calm and composed amidst the shocked gazes of the entire class, as if it were all perfectly normal. A storm raged within her.

She suddenly remembered that Chen Mo had given her some pointers on math problems before the holiday.

It turns out he never joked. When he said he would get first place, it was as easy as taking candy from a baby, effortlessly bringing her down from her pedestal.

The bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class.

The bell rang, signaling the end of get out of class.

Liu Jianguo called Chen Mo out of the classroom alone, patted him on the shoulder, and his smile was brighter than a flower: "Chen Mo, hahaha, I'm a teacher who honors my bet! From now on, as long as you don't disturb others, whatever you do in class, I'll turn a blind eye! Keep it up, Tsinghua and Peking University are calling you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several subject teachers gathered around in the corridor.

"Chen Mo, where did you learn those advanced vocabulary words and inverted sentence structures in your English essays?" The English teacher's eyes lit up.

"Chen Mo, why did you leave three major questions blank in the science section? I saw that your problem-solving approach for the mechanics question was extremely advanced. Did you not want to write because there were too many words, or did you really not have time?" The physics teacher also looked heartbroken, as if the few tens of points Chen Mo missed were tearing his flesh out.

Faced with the fervent gazes of the teachers from all subjects, as if they were looking at a national treasure like a giant panda, Chen Mo simply maintained a polite smile and casually brushed it off with a few flawless platitudes such as "I was lucky" and "I had studied on my own before."

Just then, a coughing sound came from the end of the corridor.

Principal Wang of No. 1 High School, surrounded by a group of deans of teaching, actually came to the door of the senior science class.

Seeing this, the surrounding teachers quickly made way for them.

Principal Wang walked up to Chen Mo and looked the tall, upright young man up and down, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

He had a very deep impression of the name Chen Mo.

Just before the holiday, Chen Liqin, the director of the county education bureau, made a cryptic phone call to him, implying that a transfer student named "Chen Mo" in Class 1 of the third year of high school had a questionable background and was a troublemaker who was good for nothing. She said that he and his beloved daughter Su Qingyan should be separated in their seats.

Principal Wang readily agreed and immediately gave the homeroom teacher, Liu Jianguo, a firm order to forcibly dismantle the seats.

But what was the result?!

They turned around and got a perfect score in both math and English, ranked first in the whole school in Chinese, and achieved an incredibly high total score!

Is this what you call being ignorant and incompetent? This is what you call a genius who would be fought over by Tsinghua and Peking Universities at any time!

Now, recalling Director Chen Liqin's words, Principal Wang felt a burning shame on his face.

"You must be Chen Mo! Seeing is believing, you truly are a handsome and talented young man!"

Principal Wang instantly donned an extremely kind and approachable smile, stepped forward and patted Chen Mo's arm with great enthusiasm, then turned to Liu Jianguo and solemnly instructed, "Teacher Liu, a genius like Chen Mo, with his exceptionally strong self-learning ability, must be given the utmost support and freedom by the school! Whether it's review materials or his daily schedule, everything must be given the green light!"

At this point, Principal Wang lowered his voice and looked at Chen Mo with a hint of ingratiating probing: "Chen Mo, the school didn't consider this carefully when we rearranged the seats. If you find it inconvenient to sit in the back row, I'll immediately have Teacher Liu move you back next to Su Qingyan. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding teachers were stunned.

"No need, Principal."

Chen Mo smiled and said, "My current seat is quite good, with a wide view. My only requirement is the freedom the school gives me. It doesn't matter where I sit to me. In return, I won't let my grades drop out of the top three."

Principal Wang sensed the confidence in Chen Mo's words and nodded in agreement. After exchanging a few more pleasantries, he led the school leaders away, satisfied.

……

After dealing with the school leaders and teachers, Chen Mo turned around and walked back to the classroom.

The once noisy classroom fell completely silent the moment he stepped through the door.

The way everyone looked at him had completely changed from initial disdain and contempt to awe as if they were looking up at a monster.

Lin Yu, the class monitor in the front row, kept his head down and didn't dare to breathe, for fear that Chen Mo would use his grades to mock him.

But Chen Mo didn't even spare him a glance, and went straight to the back of the classroom.

Chen Mo pulled out a chair and sat down in the single seat directly behind Su Qingyan, casually tossing the report card showing him as the top student in his class with a total score of 675 onto the table.

Su Qingyan, who was in front of her, stiffened slightly.

Her fingertips, gripping the pen tightly, turned white from the force.

After a full half minute, this aloof academic genius, who was always proud and arrogant and always looked down on his peers, finally slowly turned around.

Her beautiful peach blossom eyes stared at Chen Mo with extremely complex emotions, including shock, resentment, but more than anything, a magnanimous acceptance of defeat.

She gently bit her moist lower lip:

"You win."

Chen Mo leaned back in his chair, looking at her delicate face, which was slightly flushed: "It's a good habit to accept defeat, Miss Su."

"In that case, when are you going to keep your promise and treat me to dinner?"
