Chapter 923: 226: Science Top Scholar! Crushing the Scum in Progress!_3
"Let it go, Xiaoyu, why even bother talking to such people!" Ni Yang said with a smile as she pulled Han Xiaoyu back to her seat.
Seeing Ni Yang react this way only made Zhou Xuemei even more arrogant, "Look how guilty you are! That’s just disgusting! To think you plagiarized! You’ve totally disgraced our school and our class!"
"Cheater!"
Ni Yang could keep her composure, but Han Xiaoyu could not, "Yangyang! Look at them! Look at that Zhou Xuemei! How could she falsely accuse you like this! Yangyang, why aren’t you angry at all?"
Ni Yang was very calm and smiled, "The innocent have nothing to be angry about. Don’t be mad either, Xiaoyu. Oh, I brought you some snacks."
In situations like this, the best response is to keep silent.
Han Xiaoyu was a real food lover – upon hearing about food, her eyes lit up, "What kind of snack?"
Ni Yang took out a cup of NY Milk Tea and a box of Glutinous Rice Dumplings from her backpack and handed them to Han Xiaoyu.
"Ah! Yangyang! I love you so much!" Han Xiaoyu hugged Ni Yang excitedly.
Han Xiaoyu loved NY Milk Tea and their sweets, but there was always a long queue for NY Milk Tea, and some of the items were limited editions, not always available even if you had the money.
Ni Yang had her ways, always managing to get them!
"I’ll pay you." Han Xiaoyu pulled out fifty cents and handed it to Ni Yang.
Ni Yang smiled and said, "You always insist on paying, but we are about to graduate. This treat is on me."
Although Han Xiaoyu loved her food, she never took advantage of Ni Yang. Even if Ni Yang refused to take money, she insisted on giving it to her.
Teacher’s office.
It wasn’t just the students of Class 5 who were taken by surprise, but also the homeroom teachers of various classes.
Everyone thought Ni Yang would surely be in the top three!
Unexpectedly, the second top spot went to someone from the neighboring Class 4...
Ni Yang didn’t make even a splash.
Such a disappointment.
Coincidentally, Zhang Qiang taught Class 4. He walked up to Teacher Xu, all smiles, "Teacher Xu, hasn’t the admissions office called you yet? With Ni Yang’s marks, she should at least be the city’s top scholar, right?"
That last remark was clearly meant to be sarcastic.
If a school had a student scoring in the top three, the city admissions office would notify them in advance. Journalists would also arrange to come for interviews in advance. That’s why everyone else didn’t know their scores yet, but Li Wei had already been informed he was the second top scorer.
Before Ni Yang was assigned to his class, Zhang Qiang was incredibly envious, especially seeing her score first in the whole school.
Unexpectedly!
Unexpectedly she didn’t have what it takes! Her past achievements were clearly plagiarized.
Such people reveal their true colors come examination time!
Everyone thought Ni Yang was a dragon, but it turned out she was just a pool of pus.
How disappointed Zhang Qiang had been before, he was now equally triumphant.
Second top in the city!
A student taught by him!
Fortunately, Ni Yang wasn’t moved directly to his class back then, or he would have been the laughing stock now.
Zhang Qiang patted Teacher Xu on the shoulder, "Ah, Teacher Xu, don’t be too upset. Such rankings are not that important. Not every student can score high. It’s already quite an achievement for our school to have Li Wei from our class as the second top scorer."
As he finished speaking, Zhang Qiang looked toward the Principal and continued, "Principal, the journalists are waiting at the door to interview me! I’ll head over there first. You should come soon too, they’ll definitely want to interview the school’s principal."
"Alright," the Principal nodded.
Actually, the Principal was also very disappointed with Ni Yang; he had thought that Ni Yang would definitely clinch the city’s top scholar spot.
He had even bragged to the principals of the neighboring No.1 and No.2 schools, claiming that this year’s city top scholar would undoubtedly be from their school, only to be blindsided by Ni Yang’s performance.
Fortunately, the city’s second top scholar was still from their school.
Otherwise, it would have been a complete disgrace!
On reflecting upon this, the Principal felt a bit better, he sighed and said, "Teacher Xu, what’s going on with Ni Yang? Her previous performance wasn’t really plagiarized, was it?"
It’s true what they say, the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
Previously, Ni Yang had done so well, every teacher used her as a model for their classes, her name always on their lips, even her essays used as examples.
Now...
Everyone wished they could go back and tell their past selves off. Isn’t this presenting students with a negative example?
