Gu Chen shoved Brother Bao's head into the urinal and held it there despite his desperate struggles. Only after a few seconds did he let go, then kicked him to the floor. His gaze was like a torch as he swept it over Li Nan and the others. Terrified out of their wits, they involuntarily backed away several steps.
"That's brutal!"
The student lackeys had never seen anyone so ruthless!
Gu Chen walked slowly toward Li Nan, who looked ready to cry and was about to beg for mercy. But Gu Chen patted him on the shoulder and left him with a few words: "Remember to pass the message on to your master. And don't come bothering me again." Then he strode away.
In the restroom, Brother Bao lay on the floor, vomiting uncontrollably. Li Nan felt a wave of nausea, his scalp tingling. He took out his phone with trembling hands and called Jiang Yu.
"How did it go? Is it done?" Jiang Yu's arrogant voice came over the line.
"Young Master Jiang, we failed. That kid made Brother Bao... Brother Bao ate..." Li Nan's voice trembled.
"What? Ate what?" Jiang Yu was stunned.
"Shit."
"He also said you should take good care of your injuries, and when you're healed, he'll deal with you again!" As soon as Li Nan finished, he heard Jiang Yu cursing and the sound of a phone being smashed at the other end.
Gu Chen returned to the classroom as though nothing had happened. But his classmates now looked at him with fear in their eyes. After all, many had seen Brother Bao go to the restroom earlier, and on top of Gu Chen's performance yesterday, he had now come out of the restroom unscathed.
Everyone understood that Gu Chen was no longer the same as before. He had gone from a sick cat to a fierce tiger!
The exam began, and Song Qianhan handed out the papers. After receiving his Chinese exam, Gu Chen didn't rush to answer. He looked it over first, then began writing furiously.
As a Divine Emperor, he found these questions as easy as turning over his hand. He finished in less than twenty minutes.
He walked straight up to the front and handed the paper to Song Qianhan. "I'm done."
Song Qianhan frowned. "What do you mean?"
"I really am done." Gu Chen's tone was firm. Over the past two days, he had shocked people enough already.
Song Qianhan adjusted his glasses and said in a muffled voice, "Arrogance is a grave mistake. Gu Chen, don't think a little talent will make me bend the rules for you. Don't forget, we still have a bet!"
"Please take a look, sir," Gu Chen insisted.
Song Qianhan picked up the paper, and his face filled with astonishment. How is this possible? He really has finished, and he's even filled the essay section!
Although he was a math teacher, he knew a little about Chinese too. He found it unbelievable that Gu Chen had finished so quickly.
"I'd like a math exam paper," Gu Chen said.
Song Qianhan thought for a moment. Unsure how to refuse, he gave him a math paper.
Faint murmurs arose around the room. The students couldn't understand why the usually hot-tempered Song Qianhan was so easygoing today. Gu Chen was provoking him!
Song Qianhan quickly restored order, calling out sternly, "Quiet!"
Su Qingqing turned to look at Gu Chen, utterly puzzled. Even she was less than halfway done. How could Gu Chen be so fast? More importantly, Song Qianhan wasn't even angry!
Song Qianhan sat at the front for a while, but couldn't stay seated. He came down in person and stood behind Gu Chen to watch him take the exam.
Though he had witnessed Gu Chen's mathematical talent yesterday, Song Qianhan was still dumbfounded when he saw how fast he answered.
Gu Chen took in nearly ten lines at a glance, without needing to think at all! His pen flew across the paper, and the questions were answered. Whether they were word problems, multiple-choice questions, or geometry problems, wherever his pen passed, it was as though he had divine aid!
And in Song Qianhan's own field of expertise, he could be certain that all of Gu Chen's answers were correct!
"I'm done!" Ten minutes later, Gu Chen got up again. "Teacher Song, the English paper."
Song Qianhan froze, then took the paper and examined it again and again. His arm was trembling violently. A perfect score! This math paper has a perfect score! And Gu Chen finished it in just over ten minutes! If he hadn't been standing behind him, Song Qianhan would have suspected Gu Chen of cheating!
A genius? No, he's a monster, a freak!
"Teacher Song?" Gu Chen prompted him.
"All right, all right!" In decades of teaching, Song Qianhan had never seen a freak like Gu Chen. Now that he had finally seen the light, he was shaking heaven and earth! He hurriedly took out an English paper and handed it to Gu Chen.
At Xinghua University, the exams for the four main courses usually took a full day, with English and management held in the afternoon. But at this moment, Song Qianhan couldn't concern himself with all that. He took out an English paper and handed it to Gu Chen, wanting to see just how monstrous Gu Chen could be!
Gu Chen took the paper and sat down to answer it, while Song Qianhan continued standing behind him.
Ten minutes later, Gu Chen got up again.
"Management, right?" This time, before Gu Chen could speak, Song Qianhan took out a paper and said amiably, "Go ahead."
At that moment, he no longer questioned Gu Chen's arrogance. Instead, the more he looked at him, the more pleasing he found him. He was like a fresh green shoot in the soil, a sight that put one at ease.
"Oh." Gu Chen ignored the change in Song Qianhan and continued answering. Within ten minutes, he finished the management paper and handed it to Song Qianhan. "Can I leave now?"
Astonished by what he saw, Song Qianhan nodded. "You can."
Gu Chen thanked him. "Thank you, sir. I'll come back for the results tomorrow." Then he turned and left the classroom.
As soon as he left, the classroom erupted in noise. The students all looked toward the door, their faces full of astonishment, as if they had witnessed a wonder!
"Quiet!" Song Qianhan's head felt as big as a bushel.
What he had just done was indeed somewhat against the rules, but he could only use his authority to suppress the uproar. Even so, a disgruntled student stood up and asked, "Teacher Song, how come Gu Chen got to leave?"
