Chapter 1 Monday at School

It was Monday, time to return to school.

Chen Yuan boarded the bus, and Zhou Fu got on midway. Since there were no seats, they stood together.

"Did you really study hard at home yesterday?" Zhou Fu asked jokingly, remembering his promise to his mother on Saturday night.

"I did homework all day," Chen Yuan replied.

"All day? Does our homework take a whole day?" Zhou Fu was a little puzzled.

"Carefully written, with great detail," Chen Yuan said.

"Okay, it's good to start by completing the assignments the teacher gives. That way, you should be able to score over 600."

At least, that was how it was for Zhou Fu herself.

She had taken some classes in junior high school, but after entering high school, she basically completed all the assignments the teacher required, without any extra effort.

In reality, in key high schools, the academic tasks assigned by teachers are excessive.

A large proportion of students don't independently complete all the homework.

At least in some subjects, there's a suspicion of "Chinese-to-Chinese" translation.

So, if you follow the teacher's instructions and absorb the content of the class, and then understand the content you didn't absorb after class to the point where you have no doubts, you can get a good grade.

If you have the same talent as Zhou Fu, you can become a 600-point range player like her.

After all, that's what she does.

"That's true," Chen Yuan agreed.

High school teachers assign a lot of homework, and he used to be at home without supervision, so he rarely completed it independently.

This time, completing all the problems, including the challenging ones he could manage, took a whole day, leaving no extra time for esports.

Chen Yuan didn't speak, just kept doing problems.

"Did you eat well this morning?" Zhou Fu asked, looking at Chen Yuan.

"I ate steamed buns," Chen Yuan said.

Then, Zhou Fu took out milk from her bag, inserted a straw, and naturally handed it to him.

"Thank you, classmate."

"You're thanking me now," Zhou Fu laughed, unable to help but complain.

You weren't so polite when you asked me for milk...

No, what am I, a girl, saying?

After a while, the two got off the bus and walked to school.

At the bottom of the teaching building, they ran into several boys from their class.

Then, these guys started 'yoyoyoyo'-ing like elementary school students, causing students from other classes who didn't know what was going on to look over here in confusion.

But Chen Yuan, unlike Zhou Fu, who looked shy, was quite calm.

"What, pretending to be a master by not talking?" So, someone started trash-talking in front of Chen Yuan.

"No, I'm quite used to it," Chen Yuan said.

"Huh?"

"Because in my heart, you're always children."

"...What a *sha bi*."

"So, are you going to make an official announcement?" A girl approached Zhou Fu and asked with a smile, "I see other people posting official announcements and kissing photos on their Moments."

Zhou Fu blushed even more and said, "There's... no need for that, right?"

"It's okay, just date with peace of mind."

"That's right, date with peace of mind, anyway, it's not us who will get caught."

"Hey, why do you think we'll get caught by Lao Mo?" Chen Yuan retorted when everyone was teasing them.

"Haven't you seen how fiercely Lao Mo caught the boys in our class who were dating girls from other classes before?" One of the boys felt that Chen Yuan was unreasonably arrogant.

Chen Yuan shook his finger at those words, and said quite calmly, "Just wait and see."

The classmates watched Chen Yuan and Zhou Fu walk towards the classroom, filled with confusion.

"Why is Chen Yuan acting so arrogant? Isn't he afraid at all?"

"Is his dad the principal?"

"Watch him brag. No one who's in a relationship under Lao Mo lasts more than half a month!"

Because they had witnessed Lao Mo's swift and merciless methods, everyone felt that these two couldn't escape this disaster.

Especially since Zhou Fu was a strong contender for a 211 university and a key protected target of Class 18.

………

Because it was a monthly exam, the teachers had graded the papers at home and then came to tally the scores together on Monday morning.

In the office, teachers from each grade and class were together, racking their brains to make spreadsheets.

"Everyone did okay on this exam's Chinese, right?" Liu Fang said, not forgetting to complain while calculating, "But why did Zhou Fu make such low-level mistakes?"

Hearing this, Lao Mo's radar went off immediately, and he asked seriously, "Did she do badly on the exam?"

"It's not that," Liu Fang shook her head and said, "I could tell before that she was a pretty good student. She did pretty well on this exam, but she got half of the fill-in-the-blanks of ancient poetry wrong, the kind that doesn't require any brainpower, just memory. She only got three points out of six."

For teachers, some mistakes students make can be forgiven no matter how well they do on the exam, but some mistakes are unforgivable.

Zhou Fu got a 117 on this exam's Chinese, which is quite good in Class 18. However, losing those three points on poetry fill-in-the-blanks is too much.

Because those are guaranteed points.

"This shows that her foundation is good, and her brain is good, but she really didn't put in the effort," Liu Fang shook her head and said.

After she finished speaking, the biology teacher also asked, "Is Zhou Fu in a relationship with Chen Yuan?"

"Did she do badly on the biology exam too?" Lao Mo asked anxiously.

"It's not that. After all, it's her first biology exam, and I don't know her level, but it's definitely a score that can't be criticized in Class 18."

After speaking, the biology teacher added, "So, that's really happening?"

"Yes," Lao Mo nodded lightly and said somewhat helplessly, "It is."

"When Zhou Fu transferred to our class, I felt that such a beautiful girl would definitely distract the boys in the class. But I didn't expect her to be in a relationship so quickly, and with that Chen Yuan who looks so honest..." Liu Fang was quite surprised.

Because the speed of this relationship is too fast.

It's really hard to stop a beautiful and well-built high school student from having a youthful crush.

"Then we have to manage it," another teacher from another class said, "Didn't Zhou Fu's grades used to be pretty good at her old school?"

Everyone's discussion made Lao Mo a little restless.

His mood to be the bad guy was eager to try.

The matter that Liu Fang mentioned could be used as a reason.

Throwing away half of the free points, doesn't that mean her heart is flying away like a duck outside?

Just then, a girl from Class 18 entered the office to ask Lao Mo for her score.

"It hasn't been calculated yet, go back to the classroom first," Lao Mo said.

"Okay, teacher..."

The girl left the office like that.

Because the teachers were chatting casually, they continued to chat.

And all of this was heard by her ears.

Both ears heard it!

"So, should we start warning from Zhou Fu or Chen Yuan?"

"I think it depends on who is more proactive in this relationship."

Hiss...

Look at what I just learned!

Hearing this, the girl hurried back to the classroom.

At this time, Lao Mo was still hesitating.

Because at least in mathematics, Chen Yuan had improved, and Zhou Fu's basic problems were also stable, and she hadn't lost many points.

Neither of them showed any obvious signs of being affected by being in a relationship.

But it's possible that it's because he's their class teacher, so they didn't dare to slack off in mathematics.

Just then, Sherry Liu, with a light luxury khaki bag hanging on her shoulder, holding a cup of coffee in her hand, wearing high heels, and wearing a set of clothes that everyone had never seen before, walked into the office, put down her bag, put a small cushion on the chair, arranged the coffee, and put a U-shaped pillow around her neck...

All the teachers, including the female teacher Liu Fang, watched her do this set of actions uniformly and showed an expression of "---".

After this noble monkey finished all the preparation work, she began to fill in the scores of the students in her class on the shared spreadsheet.

Because she came at the point of overtime that everyone had agreed upon, she was not late...

So envious of Sherry Liu's mental state!

"Teacher Liu Xin, how did you do on this exam's English?" Lao Mo asked.

"It's okay," Sherry Liu said with a smile, "Our class is pretty good, especially that new student Zhou Fu. She even scored higher than my little class representative."

"Higher than He Meng?"

Hearing this, Lao Mo broke out in a cold sweat.

Originally, Zhou Fu was quite balanced and didn't have any shortcomings, but now she's doing so well on the exam... She's definitely one of the top students.

If he can't say anything about Zhou Fu, then Chen Yuan...

Actually, except for English, which is unknown, there has been a small improvement in other subjects.

Adding up these improvements, it would be twenty points.

Even if English stays the same, overall, the score is improving, and the ranking has improved a lot.

Although Lao Mo felt that hoping for a student to have low grades was unreasonable and a bit narrow-minded, but they just started dating, and they're still in the most uncontrollable and destructive honeymoon period, and their grades didn't drop but increased... How can he talk to them?

If reason doesn't work, he can only talk about attitude.

But it's difficult for a man to do such unreasonable things that only talk about attitude and don't make sense.

However, his English is really, really bad, the kind that's at the bottom of the class. It can be said that he has never seen him pass.

It's difficult to improve such a truly weak subject.

If his English is too bad, even worse than before, his total score will still drop...

"Speaking of which, I don't know what's going on with Chen Yuan. It's a bit exaggerated."

While Lao Mo was thinking wildly in his mind, Sherry Liu suddenly said after taking a sip of coffee.

The others also turned their attention to her.

Lao Mo slowly turned his head, a little nervous.

Then, he was shocked and his pupils dilated instantly!

"It feels like he was tutored by Zhou Fu, otherwise he couldn't have improved..."

Sherry Liu was halfway through her sentence when Liu Fang suddenly interrupted to remind her, "Teacher Liu Xin, don't you know they're dating?"

"..." Hearing the sensitive topic of puppy love, Sherry Liu, who absolutely didn't want to be at odds with students, instantly became vigilant, "I, I don't know."

Early love is absolutely not to be tolerated.

And here at Lao Mo Teacher, is even more serious.

But she looked at Lao Mo's expression ... seems a bit wavering ah?

………

"The teacher in the office is discussing to attack you two, either from Chen Yuan or from you..."

After the girl came back, she said directly to Zhou Fu.

Because the voice was not small, so many people gathered around.

"Is this for real?"

"How will they attack us?"

"Will they call us in for questioning?"

While everyone was chattering, Zhou Fu was already a little scared, her body tensed up nervously, looking at Chen Yuan, very uneasy.

Could it be that I did badly on the exam?

But I feel like I did okay on the exam.

"What to do?" He Sijiao asked Chen Yuan.

Because she cares a lot about these two's love.

Chen Yuan's several times of loving protection of Zhou Fu, has made her have a more good feeling to him.

Chen Yuan felt that everyone thought that he and Zhou Fu were going to be broken up.

Among them, there are also some who don't mind watching the fun.

But, why is Lao Mo handling it this way?

He had estimated the scores, and they were really not bad.

It's not like it's a liberal arts subject, with a big deviation.

How could it be bad this time?

Or is it Zhou Fu?

Fu Zi is indeed a bit love-struck.

"Maybe he wants to praise us."

When everyone was brainstorming, Chen Yuan suddenly said.

"..."

Then, everyone was silenced.

"Do you think Lao Mo will praise people who are in a puppy love?" Zhou Yu asked incredulously.

"Although I ship you two, but you are really a little too self-confident," He Sijiao also complained with a twitching corner of her mouth.

"That's okay, if it's really like that, I'll report Tang Jian and Zhou Yu for having an online romance," Chen Yuan said.

"Playing with the princes on Beacon Mountain? Are you even human?!" Tang Jian directly turned red.

"You bastard, you're really shameless..." Zhou Yu said halfway, then paused, a little confused.

Wait, how did he know that I was in a puppy love?

No one knows that I'm playing QQ Speed with Oleander.

"They're having an online romance?"

And Zhou Fu, even more heavyweight, directly began to have starry eyes.

What kind of person could associate him with them being in an online romance!

Amidst the uproar, the bell for morning self-study also rang.

Then, everyone returned to their seats. Lao Mo also walked into the classroom and sat in front of the podium, watching everyone do self-study, while scribbling on the report card.

According to everyone's guess, this is some kind of red and black list.

Lightly biting her lip, Zhou Fu clenched her fists, so nervous that she was having difficulty breathing. Just then, a warmth completely enveloped her left hand...

When everyone was doing self-study, and the teacher was still sitting on the podium, he directly held her hand under the table!

What an exciting puppy love!

Zhou Fu dared not look at Chen Yuan, but her hand cooperated quite well and intertwined with his fingers...

Her heart gradually calmed down.

No matter what, with Chen Yuan around, I'm not afraid.

Such contact, at the moment Lao Mo got up, two people just at the same time and quickly let go.

Like stealing a moment of passion, it was so exciting...

"This time the difficulty is slightly lower, but not too much lower, mainly depends on the ranking."

Lao Mo stacked armor like this, and then entered the topic: "The first name is still Tang Siwen, 626, No. 85 in the whole school."

Hearing this, the students in the class all applauded.

Sister is still awesome.

Star players in small competition areas.

"The second is He Meng, 600, but did not enter the top 100, is 130, but compared to before, there is still progress."

It was still very surprising that there were two students in the class, and the students also applauded a little to show their support.

"Third place..." Lao Mo hesitated for a short time before saying, "Zhou Fu, 590."

As soon as Lao Mo finished speaking, Chen Yuan began to applaud.

The others were also taken along and applauded...

This made Zhou Fu and Lao Mo blush.

Zhou Fu os: Enough baby...

Lao Mo os: Face jumping?

And after everyone finished applauding, Chen Yuan's applause was still going on, so Lao Mo pressed his hand: "Stop."

Then, he continued to report the results reluctantly.

While waiting for their own results, everyone also gossiped and paid attention to Chen Yuan.

That looks like, Chen Yuan will be processed if he drags his feet...

However, everyone can understand.

That is with Zhou Fu ah.

If it is in love with Zhou Fu, I am willing to go to college!

After Lao Mo finished speaking the results, he paused for a while.

In the end, the ideological struggle ended.

One yard, goes to one yard.

"Then, I want to especially praise a student." Lao Mo raised his head and said in a serious tone, "This student, recently the teachers have all reflected that his attitude in class is much more focused. And most importantly, he is no longer afraid of weak subjects, and focuses on conquering them, and has made great progress."

Is it me?

Or is it me?

Then should be him?

Everyone was guessing.

Chen Yuan also narrowed his eyes, a little suspicious.

I feel like it's talking about me, but I'm not sure, listen again...

Finally, Lao Mo said, "Chen Yuan, 555 points, 299th place."

As soon as this name and score came out, everyone was shocked.

The result is a decent result, maybe in the top fifteen in this class.

But the key is, this is Chen Yuan's test results!

More than a month of progress of fifty points, are you human?!

Everyone was surprised to the point of disbelief.

Lao Mo was also very shocked at the beginning. But later also realized that this is difficult.

Afraid of being broken up, so desperately save themselves.

But, together you didn't learn at all before?

After calming down, Lao Mo commented as usual, "Chen..."

However, before he finished speaking, the applause, suddenly sounded.

Then, everyone saw Zhou Fu, who was blushing, interrupting Lao Mo's speech and applauding Chen Yuan while sitting upright, with a restrained smile on her face, looking well-behaved and cute...
