I Am A Prodigy

Chapter 18: Check Points

“Yunxi.” Chu Hao took the liberty to walk over and sat by Zhang Yunxi’s side. The rest of the students sitting at the two tables joined them as well.

“Chu Hao, why are you sitting here?” asked Zhang Yunxi.

“We’re all classmates. Since you have a friend sitting over here, we should get acquainted with one another.” Chu Hao chuckled then looked toward Ye Lingchen and asked, “this is…?”

“His name is Ye Lingchen and he’s a friend of mine,” introduced Zhang Yunxi.

“Your friend doesn’t look familiar, he’s not from our No.1 High School right?” asked Chu Hao.

“I’m from the No.3 High School,” said Ye Lingchen frankly.

“So it turns out that you’re a top scorer from No.3 High School. Forgive me for not recognizing you!” Chu Hao strongly emphasized the word ‘top scorer’ then he continued speaking, “I heard that the No.3 High School is quite chaotic with all sorts of students. I’ve never been there despite being in Rugao City for so many years. I feel bad.”

“It is a chaotic place. I heard that half of the students at No.3 High School are hooligans!” someone chimed in.

Ye Lingchen pursed his lips but he did not join in the conversation either. It seemed like these newcomers were not on friendly terms.

Frankly, No.3 High School took in slacker students with bad academic performance. It could be said that the students in this school were abandoned academically. The majority of the students were just there to slack their way until they graduated from high school.

“Yunxi and I are going to apply for the University of Nanking. I wonder which university are you going to apply to?” asked Chu Hao.

“I’ll see which university is suitable for me when the time comes,” said Ye Lingchen calmly.

“Heh-heh. It seems like you’re very confident in your examination results.” Chu Hao was amused by Ye Lingchen’s self-conceited confidence because he thought he could simply choose to apply to any university he liked. Chu Hao could not refrain himself from saying mockingly, “you must be doing pretty well in your studies on usual days since you’re so confident.”

“Pretty well my *ss! He is considered a rather well-known student in No.3 High School too. He came last in almost every examination.” Hu Zi came forward and said, “Moreover, I took the examination with him in the same hall. He hadn’t spent more than an hour to complete the examination of any subject. How will he score well in the examination?”

Whoa.

Everyone looked toward Ye Lingchen with despise and realized that he did not even bother to deny that.

Regardless of whether he knew how to answer the questions, he should wait until the examination had ended before he left at the very least. It was obvious that Ye Lingchen was irresponsible and gave up on himself already!

Since this was the case, Ye Lingchen still had the boldness to remain calm. He had no shame at all, while Xu Zhen looked awkward and ashamed.

“Hah-hah-hah, impressive, impressive. I’m incapable of doing that even when my wish is to score well enough to enter a tier one university. Brother Ye is considered a talented man too!” Chu Hao laughed aloud. He said in a generous manner, “scoring well in an examination is nothing much really. Brother Ye can still look for a job even if you don’t get accepted into a university. My uncle owns a garage. I can introduce you to him. You can be an apprentice there and make 5000RMB a month after probation!”

Every single person there was shocked. They changed the way they looked at Chu Hao all of a sudden. They could not help feeling like they wanted to curry favor and make friends with him. Very few people in this village could make 5000RMB a month in this entire village. Moreover, they would still need to work elsewhere all year long in order to earn that much. Chu Hao’s offer was as attractive as a free lunch fallen from heaven.
