Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The teacher’s name was Su Man, and she had a graduate degree. In this era, this was enough for her to teach at a university. However, because Su Man’s family was local, she wanted to contribute to her hometown and refused to teach at a university. Instead, she stayed in No.1 High School to teach. Now, she was in charge of helping the form teacher of Class One manage the students.

Seeing that Su Man was very young, Li Hai couldn’t help but hesitate. “Yanyan, this teacher looks nice, but isn’t she too young? What if she’s inexperienced?”

Wei Yan smiled. She knew her mother’s worry. It was like going to the hospital to see a doctor. Many people liked to find older people because they felt that they were more experienced.

“Mom, don’t worry. I’ve heard of this teacher. She has a graduate degree,” Wei Yan persuaded.

When Li Hai heard this, her eyes widened in shock. “A graduate student? That’s amazing. Let’s hurry over.”

With that, Li Hai dragged Wei Yan towards Su Man.

As soon as they approached the table where Su Man was, the two of them heard Su Man carefully explain a question to a parent. Su Man deliberately explained things at a slow pace, since she was afraid that they wouldn’t understand.

When it was Li Hai’s turn, she learned her lesson from the last time and handed Wei Yan’s report card directly. “Madam, can Yanyan enter No.1 High School?”

Su Man smiled. After taking the report card, her smile froze and she looked at Wei Yan in surprise. “Are you the genius girl from Lin County, Wei Yan, who scored 557?”

As soon as Su Man finished speaking, the surrounding parents looked at Wei Yan and Li Hai enviously.

Many people in the crowd praised Li Hai for raising her child well.

Li Hai was a little bashful as she said, “I actually didn’t do anything. My daughter achieved this herself.”

At this moment, a fashionable woman said with a smile, “Your daughter’s score is probably the highest in the province. Look, the person standing beside you got first place in City No.1 High School. She scored 555 points. Your score is two points higher than the top scorer of No.1 Middle School!”

The woman was pointing at a young girl with a ponytail. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she didn’t feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she took the initiative to say to Wei Yan, “Hello, my name is Jiang Sheng. It’s a pleasure to meet you. You actually scored higher than me. In that case, we can study hard together in the future. I won’t give up.”

Jiang Sheng’s attitude was pleasant and gregarious. Wei Yan also smiled and replied, “Alright, let’s study hard together. My name is Wei Yan. Nice to meet you.”

At this moment, Su Man suddenly stood up and said to Wei Yan, “Quick, let’s go find the form teacher of Class One. If we’re late, the spot for the experimental class might be gone.”

Seeing this, the other parents didn’t hold them anymore and urged them to hurry up. They praised Wei Yan for being full of potential.

The commotion was huge, so Wang Fang and the others also heard the commotion and quickly understood that the top scorer of Lin County was there. Wang Fang was furious. She had personally come out to enroll students, but she still missed this top scorer.

She also tried her best to look over to see what the top scorer looked like.

When she saw Wei Yan and Li Hai, she was stunned.

“How could this be? Her daughter is actually the top scorer of Lin County?” Wang Fang was shocked, but at the same time, she deeply regretted it. She missed out on the person she had been looking forward to all morning!

At the same time, Wang Fang blamed Li Hai. She felt that it was because Li Hai didn’t say the score directly that she missed out on the genius.

Song Chen also looked into the crowd. When he saw Wei Yan, his eyes lit up. This girl was so elegant, and her eyes were so charming.

Zhang Yue pursed her lips in disdain. “So what if she got a high score? She’s still a girl. She definitely won’t be able to compare to Song Chen in the future.”

When Wei Yan passed by them, she happened to hear Zhang Yue’s words.

She stopped and looked at Zhang Yue.

Zhang Yue bullied the weak and feared the strong, so when she saw Wei Yan stop in front of her, she stammered, “Why are you looking at me?”
