The Tang Chen from before Chapter 3 has returned
"Are you really sick? You have been in our class for three months. Could it be that you have been ill all this time..." Liao Xueping was extremely surprised
Just as he was about to speak, I picked up the chalk and neatly wrote the solution under that title
I nodded slightly and said, "Hmm, I have been unwell for a long time, and being ill has affected my mind, which is why my grades have turned out that way"
Liao Xueping smiled and looked over at me, "Perhaps everyone does not know that Tang Chen was the top student in every exam during middle school!"
But he is too naive
It is certainly the case that since the beginning of the school year, there have been three monthly exams, and he has come in last each time. How could he possibly achieve first place? He must have cheated!
Your homeroom teacher in the third year of junior high, Teacher Xie, is my friend. Liao Xueping explained, He used to boast about you as a student, but later when you performed poorly in the high school entrance examination, he was heartbroken and dragged me to drink all night.
After class, many people came to talk to me
Before I could put down the chalk, Liu Hao, standing beside me, immediately pronounced, "The answer is correct, but the process is wrong"
Liu Hao was extremely pleased; he forcefully drew a large × on the answer I had written with the chalk in his hand
They patted me on the shoulder, shouting that they would rely on me for future exams
Liu Hao was once again struck, and he stood dumbfounded on the podium
Upon seeing me inquire about Liao Xueping, Liu Hao was quite displeased, stating, "I told you that if you made a mistake, then you were wrong..."
If I am unable to achieve it, everyone will naturally think that I cheated
Liu Hao is immersed in a sea of books, writing diligently, likely working on exercises
He picked up the chalk and drew a large checkmark on the solution process of the multiplication sign.
Liu Hao cast a contemptuous smile at me, saying, "Tang Chen, I estimate that you have seen this problem elsewhere, memorized the answer, and thus randomly wrote down a few sets of equations, then added this answer."
Liao Xueping was momentarily taken aback before regaining his composure; he is an adult, with countless experiences, and has already seen through my lies
There is a bit. I nodded.
I stepped onto the podium and picked up the chalk, carefully looking at the problem on the blackboard
Liao Xueping took the blackboard eraser and wiped off the problems on the blackboard
He is not a genius, nor am I, but I am a little smarter than the average person
He lowered his head, likely feeling extremely embarrassed and regretting it to the point of despair
This immediately left Liu Hao dumbfounded
The classmates in the class were also stunned, unsure of whom to believe. The question was posed by Liu Hao, but Liao Xueping is the teacher
Liu Hao stood to the side, his face filled with provocation, looking at me with considerable pride
I don't think so; I estimate that he is just pretending to think. Later, he will say that he tried his best but couldn't produce anything.
You must have seen this question online. Liao Xueping looked at Liu Hao, his expression very serious, "This question is somewhat difficult for first-year high school students, as it requires knowledge learned in the second half of the semester to be able to answer it."
The classmates in the class were taken aback, indeed it is so
Standing at the door, the homeroom teacher Liao Xueping furrowed his brows after carefully reading the questions
Everyone laughed mockingly when they saw that I had not put pen to paper for half a day
I did not look at his arrogant expression, but instead turned to the homeroom teacher at the door, "Teacher Liao, did I get this question right or wrong?"
I walked out of the classroom with my bag, feeling puzzled
The tall and slender Liu Hao looked at me answering the questions, his expression one of disdain, clearly believing that I had made a mistake
From the situation just now, Liao Xueping not only had no doubts but was also quite pleased
I truly did not know that my former homeroom teacher valued me so highly
However, I do not wish to be the center of attention either
Liu Hao lowered his head and returned to his seat
Liao Xueping's radiant smile caused a wave of astonishment among the classmates, as none of them had ever seen Liao Xueping smile so brilliantly
Generally speaking, when a student who has consistently been at the bottom suddenly achieves first place, the teacher will first suspect that the student has cheated
He is a first-year high school student, and I am also a first-year high school student
The various gazes from my classmates around me made me feel uneasy
This question is somewhat tricky and peculiar; it cannot possibly be an original question by Liu Hao
Liao Xueping looked at me and cautiously inquired, "Tang Chen, regarding your failure in the high school entrance examination..."
I did not expect that merely performing well on the classroom quiz would cause such a significant commotion
I held the chalk and wrote the numbers, becoming more fluent with each stroke
Seeing Liu Hao, who has such poor psychological resilience, Liao Xueping clearly let out a sigh
I nodded perfunctorily at them
After school, I packed my backpack, and most of my classmates had already left the classroom
Holding a piece of chalk, I meticulously inscribe equations on the blackboard
Many students are clamoring, since he is so capable, how is it that he was admitted to the third-rate Lanhua Middle School for the high school entrance examination, rather than the key Shiyi Middle School.
Upon hearing such words, the entire class erupted in exclamations, looking at me in disbelief
Halfway through his words, Liao Xueping did not continue, concerned that it would further impact Liu Hao.
Liao Xueping patted him on the shoulder, "You were not unjustly defeated by Tang Chen, because he is..."
I gave him an affirmative smile and said, "Alright."
I just mentioned that solving this problem requires knowledge from the next semester, so I will not explain this problem in detail.
Upon learning about my past, Liu Hao, standing on the podium, was once again struck by a blow
Can he really provide an answer
From now on, he is no longer the focus in the subject of mathematics
Liao Xueping turned around and pointed to my solution process, saying, "Tang Chen's solution process is correct, the equation is written very concisely, the formulas are applied very skillfully, and the answer is also correct"
I know about your situation, are you surprised?" he asked me with a smile
A few minutes later, I wrote the final answer below several sets of equations
Upon seeing me answer the question, the classmates in their seats still do not believe that I could solve it
The reason they believe I am writing aimlessly is naturally derived from Liu Hao's expression
It is unfortunate that even though the answer is correct, the process is wrong; this question is considered unsolved
However, he did not expose me, but instead smiled and asked, "Based on the test just now, your illness, is it better now?"
I am truly sorry to have disappointed him, as I awkwardly scratched my head
They chuckled, thinking that I intended to write something haphazardly
Various sounds reached my ears, and I irritably ran my fingers through my hair
Liu Hao was still standing on the podium, hoping to receive an explanation from Liao Xueping
"Go back and pay attention in class, the two of you should interact more with each other"
After a pause, Liao Xueping continued, "I have also worked on this problem, and the answer provided online is actually incorrect"
The problems he is able to solve, I am certainly capable of solving as well
I put down the chalk and returned to my seat located in the corner
Liao Xueping interrupted Liu Hao's words, and he walked over to me with a smile, saying, "You got this question right!"
At that time, I was ill and did not perform well. This is the answer I provided
This question is very difficult; it is estimated that Liu Hao exerted tremendous effort to solve it, so now that he has written it out, he is deliberately making things difficult for me
He smiled and waved at me, signaling me to come over
The short and stout Liao Xueping stood at the corner of the staircase waiting for me
He reached out and patted Liu Hao, then looked at everyone, "I suppose everyone suspects that Tang Chen cheated, but have you noticed that I, as the teacher, have not suspected him at all"
I wanted to go and talk to him, but unexpectedly, the class teacher Liao Xueping appeared at the classroom door
Upon seeing me approach, he smiled very happily
If I am able to solve this problem, then I did not cheat on the classroom quiz from the last lesson
Liao Xueping looked at me with some confusion, "It is estimated that Tang Chen encountered some issues during the high school entrance examination, which is why he appeared in our school. However, it doesn't matter; given the current situation, the old Tang Chen has returned!"
Liu Hao was somewhat taken aback, not knowing how Liao Xueping could say that I did it right
From this question, it can be seen that Tang Chen did not cheat, let us continue with the explanation of the classroom quiz
The classmates in the class do not understand how the process could be wrong while the answer turns out to be correct
But I have no regrets, all of this is for Tang Yueying
After finishing the problem, he turned to me and said in a condescending tone, "You cannot solve this problem; it proves that you obtained a perfect score on last class's quiz through cheating"
The person sitting in the seat who mocked me was taken aback
Having received Liao Xueping's affirmation, I did not continue to stand on the podium
