Rebirth 07: Start adding points from elementary school students

Chapter 28 The Storm Called Doubt
The first place in the preliminary round of the National Primary School English Competition went to Lincheng Yucai Primary School.

When this news came out, the first reaction of many elementary school teachers in Rin City was:

Where is Yucai Primary School?
Faced with this result, it was not just Yucai Primary School that was shocked. It can be said that the entire primary school community in Lin City was shocked.

The energetic English teacher in class becomes the young and beautiful urban beauty Huang Qiuying after work.

It was announced in the morning that Li Yan had won the first place in the city. Teacher Huang was still excited but received an invitation from her best friend in the evening.

Her best friend and she were classmates at New Taipei Normal University. They were both from Lincheng, and after graduation they both chose to return home to teach.

Neither of them considered themselves to be top students, but the difference in their backgrounds gave them completely different educational paths.

My uncle is a close friend of a junior leader in the Education Bureau of Lin City and successfully entered the Experimental Primary School, while Huang Qiuying could only be assigned to Yucai Primary School.

Sometimes the relationship between best friends is deep and complicated. They may compete with each other openly or secretly, but on the surface they can go shopping and eat together like sisters.

Huang Qiuying has scolded her best friend for her smug look to her boyfriend more than once, and her best friend does not hide her contempt for Huang Qiuying.

Even so, they can still continue to call each other best friends and keep in touch, which truly embodies the essence of the complexity of human nature.

Huang Qiuying was dressed up tonight and deliberately wore small gold-rimmed glasses. She was going to have dinner with her best friend tonight, but she had to do so in the capacity of an English teacher for Class 601 of Yucai Primary School.

In the exquisite western restaurant, two urban beauties were chatting with each other with smiles, and there were only two plates of salad appetizers on the table.

With the appearance of pasta and steak, my girlfriend also cut into the main topic:

"Your school won first place in the city in this year's preliminary competition?"

It sounded like the person asking this question had bad intentions and was not trying to hide his intentions at all.

"How can we apply for what we want? If there wasn't a real genius who got such a score, we wouldn't dare to apply."

"How come I've never heard of such a genius before?"

"Gold has not yet shined, so it's normal to look ordinary. But he has always been the top of the grade."

"Yingying, being first in the grade at Yucai is not the same as being first in the city in this English preliminary competition."

Huang Qiuying adjusted her glasses and her expression changed, "So, he is a genius."

"Geniuses may be rare in other places, but we can see a lot of them in our experimental school. Take for example the little Chen who was sent to the finals. He can read English originals at such a young age. I feel inferior to him."

"We should be happy that our small city can train such a genius."

"Of course I'm happy," the bestie smiled and picked up the red wine glass and took a sip of grape juice, "I also know you're happy, but I'm afraid your happiness is just for nothing."

"There's something else behind your words, Xiaoqi."

"I'm doing this for your own good, Yingying. Xiao Zheng from our school scored 123, which is already very exaggerated. As far as I know, the top student in the city next door only scored 120 points."

"So what?" Huang Qiuying no longer controlled her tone.

"The New Taipei City team is pretty impressive, right? The score to advance to the semi-finals was only 115. Your school's Li Yan scored 134, which would rank high in New Taipei City."

"I said, so he is a genius."

"Why don't you understand, Yingying?" The bestie said helplessly, "Don't even mention Yucai, even in Lincheng City, you may not be able to enjoy such a genius."

"Just say what you have to say."

"Then don't blame me for being too blunt," my bestie also said with a frown, "Things like the preliminary rounds are all supervised and graded by each school internally, so it couldn't be easier to do anything about it."

"What do you mean?" Huang Qiuying put down her knife and fork.

The friend also put down her knife and fork and moved closer to Huang Qiuying. "Teacher Huang, I know you are very angry about other schools taking up the Yucai quota, but the student source and educational strength are there. The gap cannot be filled by some genius."

"I'm sorry, but it's not your turn to show off your superiority today. The genius is in our class, and he's my student. He's not stupid enough to cheat to get the honor of being the best in the city."

"Forget it, your kindness is taken for granted." The best friend spread her hands and said, "The false face you gained in the preliminary round will have to be doubled in the rematch, which is a unified examination hall." "Then we'll wait and see in the rematch." Huang Qiuying's eyes were burning with anger, but she was smiling.

My bestie also laughed, "Well, we finally got off work, why are we talking about this? Try the egg tarts here, they're delicious..."

"Do you think she's ill?"

After returning home, Huang Qiuying called her boyfriend and verbally assaulted her best friend for five minutes.

And her boyfriend destroyed her mood with one sentence:
"If this child you're talking about is so amazing, why didn't he show it before?"

She yelled back almost instantly, "I don't know what this kid is thinking. I only know that he got full marks in three difficult test subjects, and I only know that I watched him finish the English competition paper in half an hour and won first place in the city!"

"That makes it even more incredible..."

"Why are you unwilling to admit that there is a genius in our class?"

"No, baby, don't be impatient, I just think this is illogical..."

"The math teacher gave him questions on the spot, and I graded the test myself. Are you saying that we teachers colluded to create a fake genius?"

"Don't get excited, I didn't mean that."

However, Huang Qiuying could no longer control her emotions. Tears rolled down her cheeks. Her tone was no longer intense. She just said coldly to the phone:
"You just look down on Yucai Primary School from the bottom of your heart. Your prejudice is as strong as a mountain."

No matter how her boyfriend kept calling her “hello, hello” frantically, Huang Qiuying decisively hung up the phone.

The next day, as soon as the dejected teacher Huang entered the office, he was stopped by Director Cai of the Teaching Department.

Seeing how nervous he looked, Teacher Huang had a pretty good guess in his mind.

"Are you sure Li Yan didn't cheat?"

The question was too direct, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

"Unless the test papers of the National English Contest were leaked, this score is genuine. Director Cai, let the people above who are worried go to the National English Contest Organizing Committee to handle the matter."

Director Cai is a little bald, and he likes to comb his hair back. He wears gold-framed glasses, has a big belly, and has a greasy middle-aged look.

He was obviously dissatisfied with Mr. Huang's answer. "Hey, I've been here for two or three years. Why do you keep talking about superiority? You have no respect at all."

"Respect? Director Cai, please first ask us whether we respect Li Yan. This is the first true genius in Yucai in all these years. Don't lose her."

It only takes one day for rumors to grow into a storm.

The moment Li Yan walked into the classroom, the lively discussion suddenly fell silent - this meant that he was the center of the discussion.

If it is to praise him, his arrival should further make the atmosphere more lively.

So it must be something that is not suitable for him to hear. It is not difficult to guess that it must be the authenticity of being the first in the city.

He had guessed the possibility of such suspicion, but it was totally unexpected that his home ground would fall in just one day.

"Master Yan, I really can't stand hearing those idiots from other schools accusing you of cheating."

Still the familiar little fat boy.

"Just say it." Li Yan said calmly, "After the semi-final exam, they will stop barking."

The aura of this sentence directly exploded the classroom, and even Zhang Ming was shocked by this arrogant self-confidence.

Thus, the rumors in classroom 601 were dispersed. The children went to class and went home from school as usual. They surrounded Li Yan like the moon surrounded by stars, and scolded the teachers and students from other schools who suspected him of cheating.

But it became quiet once you walked out of the school gate. Standing at the gate was a group of students wearing red long-sleeved jackets and black school uniform pants.

This flashy color can only be the school uniform of the first elementary school in Lin City - Experimental Elementary School.
