When Principal Zhang called Lan Jie to inform him of Qiao Yu's scores, even this veteran mathematics teacher didn't know what to say.
Star City's middle school exams cover nine subjects, and including physical education, Qiao Yu scored full marks in six of them. While Moral and Legal Studies wasn't a perfect score, it was only three points shy after conversion. The remaining two subjects with unsatisfactory scores were taken in the eighth grade.
Even if the total score isn't eye-catching, it's hard to hide.
After holding back for a while, Lan Jie replied, "This score... well, it shows Qiao Yu really took this exam seriously."
"I know, I know, and it's my fault for his result too. Back then, I was just worried he'd fall short; who'd have thought he'd be so earnest and this would happen."
Hearing Principal Zhang's chagrined words over the phone, Lan Jie felt both amused and helpless.
A principal reflecting on themselves because a student did too well—what a rare sight.
