Su Yu felt the Dean's gaze sizing her up before she casually said, "Good day, Teacher. I am Su Yu."
"Alright, please take a seat here," said the Dean.
There were other teachers in the office and they seemed to be sorting out the materials for the start of the school term. However, when they saw someone come in, their eyes gathered on Su Yu. Liu Fang was one of them. She looked at the girl behind the Dean and was stunned for a moment. She thought that she had seen wrongly so she gave the form teacher of Class C beside her a look and asked, "Mr. Li, is she the transfer student?"
Class C's form teacher was an honest middle-aged man. When he heard Liu Fang's words, he looked at Su Yu curiously and said, "There's only one transfer student in our school this semester, so it should be her. This little girl looks quite good and seems quite clever, but I don't know what her grades will be like."
Liu Fang thought of Su Yu's academic performance that was mentioned on the phone with Su Weiguo yesterday, and said in a low voice, "She's not very good."
"How many students have good grades when they transfer through connections? We can't accept such people in Class B. She's already in her third year of high school. If a student with bad grades enters the school, it'll definitely pull down the average grade of the class."
"That's true," said the form teacher of Class C.
All high school teachers had a performance evaluation. Their year-end bonus was closely related to the graduation rate of their students. No one wanted their salary to be affected by a transfer student.
Liu Fang's hands moved a lot faster and she quickly picked out the materials for her class from the pile. Then, she said to the form teacher of Class C, "Mr. Li, I've found all the information I need. I'll be leaving first. Take your time."
The form teacher of Class C asked doubtfully, "The transfer student is already here. Aren't you going to wait and see her results?"
Liu Fang had promised Su Weiguo that she would not accept Su Yu and she felt that it was impossible for Su Yu to get into class B anyway, so she said, "I'm not going to wait anymore. I'm going back to class for a morning meeting. I have something good to announce."
The form teacher of Class C said enviously, "It's about Su Man from your class, right? I've heard about her. That's great! Who knows, you might even be the high school's top-performing form teacher in the future!"
Liu Fang couldn't hide her smile."That's all in the future. I'll take my leave first!"
...
Next to the sofa, the Dean handed Su Yu an examination paper, then a pen and paper, and said, "The principal hasn't arrived at school yet. You can start answering the questions now. I'll approve it for you. When the principal comes, he'll assign your class accordingly."
"Alright," said Su Yu. As soon as she finished speaking, she picked up the paper and scanned it casually. As she expected, it was all flashy but useless questions. After reading it, she only had one thought: this paper was extremely boring!
However, this was how exams were. The questions were all for the sake of the exam and would always be out of touch with reality.
When the Dean saw her reaction, he thought that she found the questions too difficult and comforted her as he said, "You have a total of one and a half hours to answer this paper. All the subjects are listed on it. You can take your time to answer them. There's enough time. The most important thing is to answer them correctly. It doesn't matter if you write fast..."
Su Yu pouted. It was obvious that she was not listening to the Dean's words. She put down the paper. Instead of using the pen that he had given her, she took out a pen from her bag and started to answer the questions.
Seeing that she had started to answer the questions, he said, "The time starts now, you can slowly answer."
After saying that, he went to sort out the students' information with the other teachers. He wasn't worried that Su Yu would cheat. The headmaster's office had surveillance cameras, and there were so many teachers standing there. If the transfer student dared to cheat, it could only prove that her character and brain were not good enough.
Half an hour later, Su Yu put the pen down and said, "Teacher, I've already finished."
When the Dean heard this, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he quickly walked over and asked, "You've finished so quickly? Have you checked your answers carefully?"
Su Yu put the pen cap back on before putting it back into her bag. Then, she calmly said, "There's no need to check."
The Dean was speechless. He had never seen such a crazy student.
He picked up the paper and took a quick look. The paper was indeed finished and there was not a single empty question. However, out of responsibility, he kindly reminded the young lady. "Su Yu, this paper will determine which class you will be studying in this year. You have to be more mindful!"
