The math teacher was stumped. He stared at Chen Ge for a while before slamming the ruler on the podium. "Sit down and stop looking out the window. Du Ming, come and solve this."
The round-faced kid walked to the board while Chen Ge reached into his backpack. "Everything here feels too normal… so normal that something must be wrong."
It felt like a lifetime before class was finally over. Chen Ge accosted the round-faced kid and led him to a corner.
"What are you doing? You're being too obvious if you want to borrow my homework to copy."
"I want to ask you something. You have to answer me honestly." Chen Ge pointed at himself. "What kind of person am I in your eyes?"
"A lonely, sarcastic, and unpopular student with horrible attitude in class." The round-faced kid did not hold back and let Chen Ge have it.
