The news of Lin Yun's perfect score quickly spread throughout the school, causing a sensation. Teachers and students alike marveled at his achievement, their admiration tinged with a hint of envy.
Although Lin Yun remained humble and grounded, it would be a lie if he wasn't excited about it. As far as he knew, no one had ever achieved a full score before, not even in a mock exam like this.
He had thought it through since his rebirth. With the system in his hand, Lin Yun had decided to go the high-profile route. Fame could bring him fortune, and it would be easier to sell his product in the future.
Moreover, with a good academic background, it could become a reasonable support for his "innovation" that would appear in the near future. He wouldn't have to find an excuse for his ideas, as everyone would subconsciously think of him as a genius. Just like a certain Tesla CEO. Whatever he came up with, even if it was just simple technology, people would be awed and praise him nonstop.
In the evening, Lin Yun began his extra class again. However, the attendance had increased drastically. Many students from other classes had joined in, and the space was not enough. In the end, Xu Qing had to book a lecture hall for him.
At the end of the class, Lin Yun glanced at the system panel and saw that he had obtained 249 points today. It was equivalent to the number of students there.
"Classmate Lin, do you have free time?"
As Lin Yun packed up his belongings, a young girl suddenly approached him.
Lin Yun raised his head to look at her and immediately recognized this person. She was the school beauty, Chu Ling'er. In his past life, they had a few interactions during high school. The last time he saw her was during the reunion party. Later, he heard that she went abroad to pursue further studies.
"What's wrong, School Beauty Chu?" he asked with a smile.
Chu Ling'er rolled her eyes and said, "I didn't expect you to be the same. Stop calling me with that title... Well, I didn't attend yesterday's class. Can I borrow your notes?"
"Sure," Lin Yun nodded and handed her his math notebook.
"Thank you," Chu Ling'er was happy. "By the way. Are you heading to Capital University?"
Lin Yun shook his head. "Probably not. I'm currently torn between the Far East Institute of Technology and West Lake University. I don't want to go too far from home... What about you?" He replied truthfully. There was nothing to hide anyway.
"Oh? Well, my original plan was Capital University. Now, I think I'm heading to the Far East University. Their finance major is the best, after all," Chu Ling'er responded. "What is your major?"
"Computer engineering," Lin Yun replied.
"I see," Chu Ling'er nodded slightly. "As far as I know, FEIT is the best in computer engineering. It has the biggest budget and is supported by national policy. It also has an affiliation with the Eastern Science Academy. With your academic level, your future path is wide open."
Lin Yun suddenly remembered that Chu Ling'er's father seemed to be the current mayor of Sunshine City. It was normal for her to know this.
He thought for a moment and said, "Thanks for the information. I plan to set up a company later, but Far East City's cost of living is too high. West Lake City is more affordable."
"Set up a company?" Chu Ling'er was surprised. "In fact, you don't have to worry about it much. The distance between the two cities isn't that far. You can travel between them within 2 hours by bus."
As a rich lady, Chu Ling'er didn't think much about a 2-hour travel time. However, Lin Yun was different. As someone who experienced the tragedy of commuting daily, 2 hours was simply a nightmare.
"I'll think about it carefully again," Lin Yun said and grabbed his bag, ready to leave.
"Alright," Chu Ling'er smiled faintly. "Maybe we can be in the same city again."
Lin Yun smiled and said, "I'm leaving. See you tomorrow."
"Mhm," Chu Ling'er responded gently and walked away.
"Sugoi! Brother Yun," Pan Wei walked over and gave Lin Yun a thumbs up. "I think School Beauty Chu is interested in you."
Lin Yun shook his head with a smile. "You are overthinking. Besides, I'm not interested in her."
Pan Wei's eyes widened in disbelief. "Are you for real? Who wouldn't like her?"
Lin Yun pointed at himself. "I am. Clear?"
Pan Wei was at a loss for words. It could be said that all the men there had a crush on Chu Ling'er. After all, she was a symbol of the perfect girlfriend — rich, beautiful, and intelligent. He didn't expect his good brother to be indifferent.
Suddenly, he thought of something and took a step back. His face turned pale, and his butt muscles tightened. "B-Brother Yun... Don't tell me... You like men?"
Lin Yun's face darkened. He raised his leg to kick Pan Wei's thigh gently and said, "What are you thinking about? Of course, I like women."
Pan Wei breathed a sigh of relief as he rubbed his thigh. "Phew... I thought you liked men."
Lin Yun was too lazy to argue with him and walked out of the building. Pan Wei simply had no idea that Lin Yun's mental age was 30 years old. Chu Ling'er was nothing but a little girl in his eyes. Compared to the sexy and mature women he had seen in his past life, he simply had no feelings for her.
After returning home, Lin Yun simply washed up and began coding on his newly bought computer. With the knowledge he learned last night, it was nothing more than copying and pasting the code into reality.
Within just 2 hours, Lin Yun had completely finished the foundation of the program. All he had to do next was add functions and displays. He estimated it would be finished within the next 2 days.
"Son, dinner is ready," Wang Chulan's voice resounded from outside.
Lin Yun saved his progress and went to the dining room on the first floor. He didn't forget to bring the mock exam score sheet with him.
"What is this?" Lin Canghai asked as he received the sheet from his son.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, Lin Canghai's eyes widened in surprise. "A full mark? Is this fake?"
"Let me see it," Wang Chulan snatched the sheet away and looked at it. She immediately exclaimed, "What!? A full mark!?"
Lin Yun was happy as he said, "Yes. It's a full mark. Dad, Mom, you don't have to worry about the tuition. I will apply for a scholarship. Perhaps I can get a living expense as well."
"That's great!" Wang Chulan was overjoyed.
"Not bad. As expected from my son," Lin Canghai nodded proudly.
Lin Yun chuckled and enjoyed the warmth of the family dinner.
