"Oh, you're here too, kiddo."
Lin Yuanhang was slightly surprised when he saw Lu Qingyi while holding a stack of documents.
"I'm a transfer student."
Lu Qingyi nodded slightly.
Xu Boyan furrowed his brows, "Did you find it?"
"Fourth Brother, all the information is here."
Lin Yuanhang presented the information to Xu Boyan as if offering a treasure.
Doctor L had been seen near Jin City Middle School.
Xu Boyan browsed the documents in his hand with a frown.
Perhaps, Doctor L was once a student of Jin City Middle School.
Lu Qingyi watched the two of them with a faint expression, finding it amusing.
Ah, Doctor L.
"Are you in your junior or senior year, kiddo?"
While Xu Boyan examined the documents, Lin Yuanhang shifted his attention to Lu Qingyi.
This girl was quite different, at least in the view of his Fourth Brother.
His Fourth Brother was notoriously dispassionate towards women, rarely conversing with them at close range.
Lu Qingyi couldn't help raising her hand to touch her cheek, "Senior Year."
Did she really not look like an adult?
She was already nineteen.
Lin Yuanhang was startled, "Your grades must be particularly good, right?"
"How so?"
Lu Qingyi raised her brows in confusion.
"You've jumped a grade to senior year, how could you do that without good grades?"
Lin Yuanhang said this as though it were a matter of fact.
Lu Qingyi: "..."
She didn't know what to say.
"The kiddo is already an adult."
Xu Boyan casually voiced out a few words without lifting his head.
Lin Yuanhang was such a blockhead.
Who always had a one-track mind.
His mom named him Yuanhang, hoping that he would be smart and go far in life.
Who would have known that he, instead, was dense as a rock.
Lin Yuanhang: "..."
An adult?
Why does she look so young?
Xu Boyan closed the documents in his hand and started massaging his brows, "None of them fit the criteria."
About twenty-five years old, long-haired, fond of wearing antique clothing.
"Kiddo, aren't you going to attend classes?"
His gaze landed on the girl in the corner, who was eating a lollipop.
Lu Qingyi shrugged her shoulders, "Oh, I don't feel like going."
The classroom was too noisy, she was annoyed.
"Aren't you afraid of being punished?"
Quite an interesting kiddo.
"Expelled? I wouldn't mind."
Lu Qingyi shrugged her shoulders once more, giving off an indifferent vibe.
However, if Lu Yao wants, she could stay at this school until her senior year graduation.
Being the leading investor, one still has some say in matters.
"Want some candy?"
Xu Boyan took out a few colorful candies from his pocket, holding them in his palms and spreading in front of Lu Qingyi.
The candies were colorful, the wrappers fluorescent, reflecting glaring light in the sun.
Very beautiful.
Without any hesitation, Lu Qingyi took one: "Thank you."
Lin Yuanhang: "..."
Damn, that's candies from Mrs. Xu.
Xu Boyan had actually given them to Lu Qingyi.
Mrs. Xu always dreamt of her son bringing home a girlfriend.
Knowing that Xu Boyan was cold and reserved, and afraid that he didn't know how to please a girl, she always was in the habit of stuffing his pockets with candies.
In her words: "When you meet a girl you like, and can't express your feelings, just give her candy. Girls are simple creatures, they would be pleased with a piece of candy."
After yawning, Lu Qingyi remarked, "I should go back to class now."
A little sleepy. She had stayed up late reading novels last night.
Despite being noisy, the classroom was still a decent place, perfect for sleeping.
"Are you Lu Qingyi, the transfer student?"
On the podium in the 20th-grade classroom, a fairly older male teacher was providing an animated explanation of exercises.
Despite the classroom's overt sleepiness under the podium, no one uttered a word.
The maths teacher adjusted his glasses, his sharp gaze landing on Lu Qingyi at the door.
She was too audacious.
Daring to skip class.
Lu Qingyi simply hummed in agreement.
"Solve this problem. If you can't, stand outside. After class, go to my office and write a self-criticism."
The math teacher blustered.
"I recognize all the characters in this question, but the moment I'm asked to solve it, I become a stranger to it."
"It's too tough."
"I don't even know how to solve a simple quadratic equation."
"Lu Qingyi is pretty bold, huh? Daring to spring Teacher Hu's class."
The math teacher goes by the name Hu Feng and is one of the most recognized strict teachers in the school.
You can choose to not attend his class, to not learn from class, but you are never allowed to interrupt, hinder others from learning.
The premise is, you must meet his standards in the exams.
Lu Qingyi raised an eyebrow, "If I solve it, can I go in?"
Her gaze swept across the question on the blackboard.
A function.
Hu Feng's eyes bulged, "Yes. If you can solve it, you can be exempt from my Math class."
He was fully aware of the academic level of the 20th grade.
Clueless about mathematics.
"Alright."
Lu Qingyi corner lips curved upwards, casually walking into the classroom and fetching a piece of chalk from the chalk box.
Without any hesitation, she started writing and drawing on the blackboard.
She moved quickly as though she didn't need to think at all.
Two minutes later, Lu Qingyi tossed the chalk, dusted the residue off her hands, and returned to her seat without even sparing a glance at Hu Feng.
"Holy shit, did she solve it?"
"Is it correct or not?"
"Did she just scribble or did she really solve it?"
Forgive them for not understanding, they were all exchanging confused glances.
Lu Qingyi's handwriting was beautiful, lively, and dynamic, giving people an elegant and pleasing feeling.
Hu Feng was stunned looking at the blackboard, then couldn't believe what he saw when he looked over at Lu Qingyi.
She had indeed solved it, the solution was perfect, far more concise than his own.
There's someone like this in 20th grade?
If it were grade one, he would feel gratified if someone solved this problem.
The problem was actually quite simple.
But it's not the same in 20th-grade, he was incredibly shocked.
Hu Feng cleared his throat: "Lu Qingyi."
"Didn't you say that if I solve it, I can be exempt from Math class? I don't feel like participating now, I want to sleep."
The moment she sat down, Lu Qingyi was called out by Hu Feng. She raised her head, a hint of displeasure in her eyes.
"Teacher, I just want to ask you one question, are you best in mathematics?"
The students who joined the 20th-grade would not have particularly good grades, the only explanation is that Lu Qingyi was seriously partial to certain subjects.
Lu Qingyi frowned: "No, just so-so."
She was better in biology.
"Qingyi, you're really good at math," Jiang Yumeng looked at Lu Qingyi with a face full of envy.
During Teacher Hu's class, no one in the 20th grade was able to completely solve the math problems he wrote on the blackboard.
"It's just a function problem," Lu Qingyi shrugged, speaking in a nonchalant tone.
High school knowledge, in her eyes, seemed to be as simple as multiplications within ten.
Just a function problem?
Well, it seemed like Lu Qingyi was indeed an expert, things that they couldn't understand, in Lu Qingyi's eyes, were considered simple.
