i'll gradually post the whole chapter (10+ pages long on docs) as fast as i can

For the first time, Yan Chu failed to fulfill his promise. He overestimated himself and underestimated the children who were notably eager for knowledge in this era.

Looking at the transcript of the mid-term exam and counting his rankings three times from beginning to end, Yan Chu made sure that he was eleven and there was nothing wrong with it. Thinking of the promise he had promised to enter the top ten to the old lady, he felt his face swollen.

In truth, he was two points away from tenth place in his class. The distance of the multiple-choice questions had long been known. If he had known earlier, he should have filled in one or two more math questions correctly.

He quickly stared out the report sheet posted on the bulletin board of the classroom. From the view of Old Liu, the headteacher who had just entered the classroom, Jin Zhande's old classmate, this child's achievement was incredible this time.

Looking at that reddening face, it must be because of happiness. Sure enough, there was a big difference between this child and Big De. He was not a bad child. He just lacked the proper education.

As the headteacher, Old Liu knew every student's grades before coming to this school. Honestly, when Yan Chu just transferred to this school, he felt that this child might hold the class back because his grades before he came to this school hovered around the pass line, and his ranking on the previous school had always been the bottom. But it turned out that he was not so hopeless.

In this half-semester, he witnessed the transformation of Yan Chu. From the beginning, he always wanted to influence the bad students who bullied the girls at the front table at the same table. Now, he listened carefully and maintained good communication with his classmates.

These changes came from a heart-to-heart conversation. Old Liu found his cowardice and bluff pride hidden under mischief and arrogance. He was just a child spoiled by his mother, had no friends in his previous school because of his awkward temperament, and many classmates hated him.

At home, he was disliked by his two older brothers. Only his mother, who loved him, would instill in him that he was the best. Others did not like him just because of not having a vision or something. A vicious circle led him to hate school and study. Moreover, without proper guidance, his personality actually becomes more and more negative under arrogance.

Old Liu was very thankful that he was aware of this and helped the child untie his heart knot as soon as possible. At the same time, he was also glad that there were so many friendly classmates in their class, and they were willing to help Yan Chu change with him.

During this half-semester, everyone saw Yan Chu's progress and washed away his bad habits. He was a child that everyone liked.

As a teacher, it was a proud thing to pull a student on the right path. Perhaps, because Old Liu personally participated in Yan Chu's change and contributed too, Old Liu saw Yan Chu especially pleasing to his eyes now. Every time he looked at him, it was like looking at a piece of jade. He wanted to know what kind of dazzling appearance he could transform him into in the end.

"You have made great progress. All teachers and I have praised you. From the 43rd rank who have just entered the school to the current 11th, you have improved more than 30 ranks in half a semester. The teachers have great expectations for you, and you should also be proud of yourself."

Old Liu patted the shoulder of his favorite student. He could make such a great improvement in half a semester, which was enough to prove that Yan Chu was smart. Yan Chu was only a child who got delayed by the education method. As long as he maintained his current learning state, he could achieve excellent results and get admitted to his ideal university.

"But remain modest and keep cool. In the class, you still have ten opponents. And in the batch year, you still have more than 100 opponents. The teacher believes that your talent is more than that."

After giving praise, he naturally had to present some pressure and motivation. Old Liu inexplicably believed that the child in front of him would never let him down.

Yan Chu was just like an ordinary praised child. He looked excited and shy, and his eyes revealed his eagerness to try. Obviously, he listened to Old Liu's words and planned to work hard for it.

His expression made Old Liu elated. During his years as a teacher, he found a good seedling. Nothing makes a teacher happier than this.

"You said Yan Chu was the 11th in his class and the 132nd in his batch year in the mid-term exam?"

Jin Zhande held the phone tightly. Even though he was so old when he died in his past life, it did not mean that his memory was not good. In fact, in his previous years, everything about his elder sister was repeatedly remembered by him. On the contrary, his impression was as deep as night. The memory of his elder sister was often inseparable from Yan Chu.

If he remembered correctly, Yan Chu's grades had never been related to his friendship. Yan Chu's ability to go to high school in his previous life was entirely due to his help. Otherwise, with his achievements, he would unlikely be graduating from junior high school.

But now, his old friend said that his nephew, the little bastard who squandered his whole family's fortune in the future, ranked 11th in the class. He knew the enrollment rate of the school he arranged for Yan Chu was still very high. If a person could maintain this score, it might be dangerous to take the university examination, but it was absolutely safe for the technical secondary school one.

Before, he thought that as long as he could smooth Yan Chu's temperament and isolate him from his bad friends, everything was enough. But he did not expect that the other party could achieve such good results. Obviously, when he entered school, his grades were still at the bottom, didn't he?

Jin Zhande's first reaction was whether Yan Chu had cheated.

Forgave him for speculating on that child with the greatest malice.

In fact, for the rest of his life, Jin Zhande's hatred for this nephew had accumulated too deep. However, at the same time, he also hated himself. He hated that he had unconsciously distanced his elder sister because of his work. If he still stayed in Jing City at that time and could often see his elder sister, he would never be unaware of such a thing at home.

At that time, he had many ways to deal with it. The worst thing was to help pay back the money, but his elder sister would not die because of it.

"Big De, do you have a big prejudice against that kid Yan Chu?"

The silence on the other side of the phone was too long. In the office, Old Liu's face sank, and his voice was no longer happy like at the beginning.

"Why, do you suspect that Yan Chu cheated? Or do you suspect that I, the invigilator at that time, was blind and couldn't see the small movements of the examinee underneath?"

Old Liu was the most experienced educator, and he could perceive a lot of things sharply. These were the doubts accumulated in his calls with Jin Zhande again and again.

"He is just a child, a 14-year-old child. I don't know what kind of image he used to be in your mind, but since you choose to hand him over to me, you should have confidence that he can be changed."
