Chapter 84: Ye Feng’s Curtain Call, Becoming an Ordinary Person

“Su Lin, it’s our last monthly exam today. You haven’t been studying much recently, will your grades drop?” Lin Xiaowan asked with concern.

Facing Lin Xiaowan’s reminder, Su Lin chuckled, “Don’t worry, Xiaowan. Even if my grades drop, defeating Ye Feng is a piece of cake. Are you worried I can’t beat him?”

“It’s not that. I just want to remind you that even though you’re talented, you still need to put in effort. You’ve heard the story of Shang Zhongyong, right?” Lin Xiaowan said.

“Hehe, Shang Zhongyong’s talent was limited. Xiaowan, I’m a true genius. I won’t disappoint you,” Su Lin replied confidently.

“What are you two talking about?” Xia Shiyu asked curiously.

“Just discussing life’s big issues,” Su Lin said nonchalantly.

“Big issues? Did something happen with the company?” Xia Shiyu asked, looking worriedly at Lin Xiaowan.

Lin Xiaowan rolled her eyes at Su Lin and then shook her head, “Nothing. I was just reminding Su Lin to study more. He’s been slacking off, not doing his homework for two days now.”

“Mr. Wang doesn’t mind. He said as long as I maintain my grades, doing homework is optional.”

“Hmph, I’ll beat you this time.”

“You’re destined to be disappointed.”

As the classroom filled up, the students buzzed with discussions. The big showdown between Ye Feng and Su Lin was set to conclude today.

Unlike Su Lin, who appeared lax, Ye Feng had been entirely focused on his studies recently, either reading books or on his way to read them.

In contrast, Su Lin seemed much more casual, rarely doing homework or being seen studying. Some students who were not in favor of Ye Feng started to waver in their beliefs, thinking that Su Lin might actually lose, enabling Ye Feng to pull off a comeback.

Su Lin just shook his head at these thoughts and didn’t explain anything. Ye Feng might be formidable, but Su Lin had his own advantages.

Before long, Ye Feng entered the room. The chattering quieted down as everyone’s attention turned to him. Feng Yifei took the opportunity to speak up, “Ye Feng, the bet with Su Lin is on today’s exam, right?”

Ye Feng nodded and stopped, “Yes, that’s right. Why, do you want to bet with me too? I’m always ready.”

“Hehe, I wouldn’t bother betting with you. I don’t like Su Lin much either, but I find you more disgusting. Ye Feng, you’re definitely going to lose this time.”

In reality, Feng Yifei was quite grateful to Ye Feng. Because of their previous bet, Feng Yifei got together with Yan Huan, something that might not have happened until university without that bet.

Ye Feng chuckled, “I remember you said the same thing last time, and you ended up running six laps around the field.”

Feng Yifei started comparing the answers. “Wow! Physics is exactly the same, Su Lin and the Class Monitor both got full marks.”

“I can’t believe it... another full score. Su Lin is such a beast.”

“Yep, another full score. But this time the Class Monitor is also amazing, full marks in Physics too.”

“There are two different answers in Biology. It’s hard to tell who’s right or wrong.”

“Just follow Su Lin’s answers. He’s definitely correct. How about Chemistry?”

“There’s one difference in Chemistry.”

Lin Xiaowan looked at Su Lin with a hint of resignation, “I lost to you again.”

Su Lin gave Lin Xiaowan a thumbs-up, “Getting full marks in Physics is already very impressive.”

“It’s nothing compared to you.”

Su Lin smiled lightly, “Stop comparing yourself to me, or you might lose confidence.”

“Hehe, I won’t lose confidence.”

Jokingly, Su Lin raised an eyebrow at Lin Xiaowan, “So, Xiaowan, does this mean you’re my girlfriend now?”

Lin Xiaowan shook her head, “The results haven’t come out yet. Let’s wait for the results.”

“The outcome will be the same even if we wait an hour.”

“One hour also counts. You have to keep your word.”

Lin Xiaowan defensively crossed her arms, watching Su Lin warily, remembering their recent encounter in the car. She had been naïve enough to believe whatever Su Lin said.

“Xiaowan, we’re in a classroom. Do you think I would do anything to you here?” Su Lin said with a helpless expression.

“Let’s just wait for the results,” insisted Lin Xiaowan, pouting adorably.

Su Lin wanted to pinch her cheeks but she swatted his hand away. “Alright, I’ll wait with you for an hour.”

Just before school ended, the exam results finally came out, and overall scores were compiled. Mr. Wang walked into the classroom with the papers to hand them out.

In the end, Su Lin topped the entire Jiangning No. 1 High School with a score of 749. Despite making further progress, Ye Feng, with a score just over 680, still couldn’t beat Su Lin.
