I’m From an Ordinary Family, for Real!

Chapter 33: Zhang Geng, Face Slapped

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In short, there was a shadow of the Chen Corporation in every aspect of life. A person like Chen Baijia was not someone ordinary people could guess.

Those people actually naively thought that Chen Baijia would be deceived? They were really ignorant frogs at the bottom of a well. They naively thought that the sky was as big as they could see.

What a joke!

All the teachers and leaders of the school, including some precocious students with social experience, would not think this way.

Shen Heng had already put away his thorns. His words were filled with regret. If he didn’t seek death and provoked Chen Chu because of his inexplicable sense of superiority, if he had the foresight to befriend Chen Chu, then, his family wouldn’t just be a small engineering team now.

The first bell rang. It was Physics class. The physics teacher’s face was rosy and full of energy as he walked into the classroom proudly.

Chen Chu stood up. “Class is starting.”

The others also stood up and bowed slightly. “Teacher, you’ve worked hard!”

“Not at all. Please take a seat.” The physics teacher’s ruddy face seemed to have become a dozen years younger, and his voice was loud and clear. “Hahahaha!” The physics teacher seemed to have thought of something and suddenly couldn’t help but laugh. He laughed so hard that everyone was confused.

The physics teacher stopped laughing and took a deep breath. “Today, I want to specially praise a classmate. His improvement is very, very, very great.”

The students looked at each other. Great improvement? Was there a need to do this?

The physics teacher’s face was flushed. “Chen Chu, get up for a moment!”

Chen Chu stood up. The students looked at him, and some of the female students looked at him differently. The physics teacher paused for a moment. “Let us congratulate Student Chen Chu for getting full marks for the physics section of the comprehensive science paper, 100 marks! A round of applause!” With that, he took the lead in clapping.

The classroom hesitated for a moment before clapping along. Full marks in physics were indeed surprising, but the teacher’s reaction was too exaggerated, right? It was as if he had scored full marks in every paper.

The physics teacher carefully sized up Chen Chu and laughed. “Chen Chu, good, good. Sit down and listen carefully. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask me.” His tone was quite friendly. When he found out that Chen Chu was favored by Chen Baijia, he was not this friendly. “Class representative, help me distribute the papers.”

On the other side.

Year Two, Class 17.

Zhang Geng, who had already claimed first place with a total score of 749 points, received a bolt from the blue. Because their first period was a math class, the math teacher also distributed the papers.

However, what stunned and shocked Class 17 was that Zhang Geng’s math score was only 139 points. However, the total score of first place was 749 points! The full score was 750 points. In other words, only one point had to be deducted from all subjects to reach 749 points.

Yet Zhang Geng’s math score was only 139 points, a total of 11 points deducted. It was impossible for him to be first. So, he had been so proud and self-satisfied just now and had been humble for so long. But the person who scored 749 points was actually not him?

Zhang Geng felt a sharp pain on his face. The gazes of the people around him were like knives stabbing at his chest. It slashed at him, leaving him with wounds on his body.

Zhang Geng’s face was deathly pale, his eyes were bloodshot, and his breathing was rapid. Suddenly, he roared and overturned his desk. He rushed out of the classroom like a madman.

The math teacher was dumbfounded.

After class, Chen Chu learned about it through the gossip of his classmates.

Just now, Zhang Geng overturned his desk in math class and skipped school to go home. The reason was simple. He had mistakenly thought that the first place’s 749 points was him and was smug for a long time before being slapped in the face.

Chen Chu could understand.

Wang Hai was laughing so hard that tears were coming out of his eyes. “F*ck, Vinegar Chen, I can already imagine Zhang Geng’s expression when he found out about his score for the Mathematics paper.

“According to his classmates, that fellow had been smug for a long time. He was like a peacock that was desperately showing off its tail feathers and thought that it was humble and low-key. F*ck, I’m dying of laughter. This was the scene of social death. If it were me, I would transfer schools immediately.”

The corners of Chen Chu’s mouth twitched. “Is it that exaggerated? Even if he’s not first, he can at least be second.”

Wang Hai chuckled. “You don’t understand. To a thin-skinned, prideful person, this is worse than killing him.” Chen Chu thought about it and agreed. Wang Hai stopped laughing and was a little puzzled. “But if that pervert who scored 749 isn’t Zhang Geng, then who is it?”

Chen Chu’s death stare pointed at him! “Is there a possibility that the pervert you’re talking about is me?” Chen Chu’s face darkened.

Wang Hai did not even hesitate. “How is that possible? Impossible, absolutely impossible!”

The second period was foreign language class. The young and beautiful English teacher smiled like a flower and entered the classroom with the test paper. As the class monitor, Chen Chu took the lead. “Good morning, teacher!”

“Good morning, students. Please sit down!” The English teacher smiled brightly.

“I want to praise Student Chen Chu. Student Chen Chu, please stand up.” The English teacher smiled and stretched out her hand to Chen Chu. Her expression was very lively and cute. She leaned forward in a lively posture.

This was the reason why Class 4 liked English classes. Who wouldn’t like such a teacher?

Chen Chu got up.

The English teacher paused for a moment and clapped her hands happily. She smiled brightly and said, “Congratulations, Student Chen Chu, on getting full marks for your foreign language paper!”

The students widened their eyes and were a step too late. They hurriedly clapped. F*ck, the class monitor is awesome! Another perfect score for one subject. Was he secretly showing off?

“Thank you.” Chen Chu nodded calmly and sat down.

Wang Hai stared at Chen Chu with a dumbfounded look on his face and whispered, “Damn, you’re awesome! Full marks for physics and English!”

Chen Chu glanced at him. “I already said that I’m the one with 749.”

This time, Wang Hai hesitated for a second before firmly denying it. “I don’t believe you!”

Class ended.

The omnipotent gossip classmate sent news that Zhang Geng had returned to class. Chen Chu looked at his phone and scrolled through the question bank to increase his proficiency points while listening to them gossip.

“Do you know? Class 17’s Zhang Geng is back. I heard that it was his parents who drove him back. They even specially bought drinks and snacks and asked the students of Class 17 not to mock Zhang Geng. Tsk, his parents are quite good. It’s just that Zhang Geng is a little like a mama boy.”

Chen Chu nodded from time to time, his hands moving quickly.

Meanwhile, in Class 17’s classroom.

Men and women were still very innocent when they were students. They took the snacks and drinks given by his parents and were too shy to say anything behind his backs. They just pretend that this never happened.

But they said something else.

“Have you guys heard? Class 4’s Chen Chu scored full marks in both subjects.”

“I heard about it a long time ago. Physics and English.”

“It feels a little fake. His results in the past weren’t very good either. This time, he scored full marks in both subjects. I feel that there’s something fishy about it.”

“No way, there are surveillance cameras in the examination hall!”

“Aiya, anyway, I just feel that there might be something fishy. It’s not like there’s definitely something fishy.”

“You don’t have to say that. If you spread rumors, you’ll run until your legs break after that. Be careful not to be punished by the school.”

“What? I’m just saying. I’m not spreading rumors!”

Zhang Geng sat in his seat with his head lowered, even though no one said anything else. However, he felt that there was something strange about the gazes of the others.
