The Top Student Fu Ting (X)

บรรณาธิการ: EndlessFantasy Translation

The homeroom teacher's eyelids quivered, and her eyes met with Fu Ting's clear doe-like eyes that were akin to jades. Fu Ting's eyes were cleaner than a lake, resembling a mirror that could reflect all the darkness in the world.

In this mirror, the homeroom teacher saw her own corrupt and twisted look.

"What you've said is right, Student Fu Ting," the principal said solemnly. "Homeroom Teacher, you're an excellent teacher with experience. How can you make this kind of low-level mistake? It violates the teacher's virtue. Quickly call Fu Ting's father to apologize."

The homeroom teacher was mortally ashamed, and she blamed Fu Ting for making her lose face. However, in order to keep her job, she could only bear the humiliation and came before Fu Pei. "I've wronged you…"

The principal was puzzled.

Did he discover a forbidden love?

Fu Pei's deep brow ridges moved slightly, his whole being looked unruly. He took one glance at the homeroom teacher apathetically before he slouched on the table lazily and slept. 

The homeroom teacher was stunned.

Did this good-for-nothing do that deliberately?

"Principal, I can share the solutions." With the principal's surprise look, Fu Ting quickly added, "But, I want to transfer to another class."

The principal was baffled. "Where do you wanna go?"

"I was hurt by the homeroom teacher's comments… I'd have more trouble if I continue to stay here," she replied. "Besides, the homeroom teacher thinks I'm from the countryside and isn't worthy of staying here to study in grade three of high school. I plan on taking the homeroom teacher's advice and repeat the first grade of high school." Fu Ting talked as her sweet smile resembled the fresh green shoots; it soothed everyone.

The principal was overwhelmed with panic. "Student Fu Ting, you're so smart. How can you repeat from the first year of high school? Isn't this a waste of your talent?"

The existence of Fu Ting could bring glory to Hai City High School during the college entrance examination in the second half-year.

The principal pondered about it for a few minutes and made a decisive choice. "How about this... I'll transfer the homeroom teacher to another school. That way, you won't be troubled anymore."

The homeroom teacher's face stiffened. Hai City High School was the best high school in Hai City, and she had a hard time getting into this school. If she left, all of her efforts would be wasted.

"Don't do that, Principal. I know I'm wrong." As the homeroom teacher said this, she looked at Fu Ting once more dejectedly. "Student Fu Ting, I've apologized to you and Fu Pei. Don't haggle over it anymore, please? I'll never do that again..."

Fu Ting's little face looked serious. "But your words not only hurt me but also gave my dad psychological trauma. We're still developing adolescents in puberty, and our mentality is very important. To make sure the college entrance examination in the second half-year goes smoothly, I think it's better for you to not show up in front of my dad and me!"

Though his face was buried in his arms, Fu Pei's menacing expression shifted into a frivolous smile. His pupils were black and shiny, and it revealed a lovely warm feeling that he could not decipher.

Little liar. She started to fool people again.

The homeroom teacher wanted to say something, but the headmaster beat her to it. "Alright," he ended. "That's it, then."

He glanced at the homeroom teacher warningly, and the homeroom teacher had no choice but to swallow the insult and left.

Afterward, the principal comforted Fu Ting with a few words. He left happily as Fu Ting promised to write the math solutions and pass them to Teacher Zhu.

Before leaving, he called Teacher Zhu outside of the classroom and patted on his shoulder. "You'll be responsible for Class One from now on. Remember that Fu Ting is now a key training target in our high school. You'll pay more attention to her and Fu Pei in the future. She's a good seedling that can't be ruined by puppy love, especially in this critical period."

Teacher Zhu nodded absent-mindedly.

...

In the classroom...

The students finally had a chance to discuss the turn of events.

"Oh my god, I was blind. It turns out the real top student in our class is Fu Ting!"

"Only one point got deducted from her Language, and all other subjects are full marks. What kind of top student is this? This is the top scholar! I totally admire her!"

"And she used advanced methods to solve the questions. Even the principal was alerted and almost knelt. I announce she's my new goddess!"

This was a shocking reversal.

Xu Tingting and Fu Huihui hardened themselves. They sat in their seats with their long faces.

Looking at the group of people around Fu Ting asking for solutions, Xu Tingting mumbled, "She's just the first-ranked student. It's nothing to be proud of. Pride and complacency don't end well."

Su Luoshui finished her drink and squashed the tin can. Her wide eyes looked playful, and she raised her eyebrows with an inevident smile. "The real number one isn't worthy of being proud. The fake number one is worthy of being proud then."

Fu Huihui's face froze.

Someone could not help but laugh.

"That's right. Didn't Fu Huihui give a 'thank you' speech redundantly?"

"She's faking as number one and looks down on Fu Ting... And she claims to be the school babe? I think she's just a joke. Time to give way to Fu Ting!"

"I'm laughing so hard, a mountain would've collapsed!"
