Chapter 35

"Who's eating at this time? Where is that smell coming from?"

"Look over there."

"What's the situation? Eating lunch now?"

"It looks like Xia Nuannuan brought it for him. It's quite sumptuous; I saw ribs and shrimp."

"Holy crap, this is going too far. I didn't get enough lunch either; the food in the canteen today was terrible."

"Are you focusing on the wrong point?"

"..."

In the classroom, more and more students who had woken up looked over, discussing with eyes full of envy.

Especially the boys.

Seeing the increasingly beautiful Xia Nuannuan being so good to Qin Tian, and even bringing a lunch of love from home at noon, they were envious beyond words.

Xia Nuannuan also noticed the surrounding gazes and blushed with embarrassment.

Qin Tian, however, didn't care, eating heartily as if no one else was around, while constantly praising the food.

"Delicious, these ribs are so fragrant, and this soup is also great. Auntie's cooking is truly excellent."

"Mom will be very happy to hear that. You eat more, eat it all!"

Xia Nuannuan said happily.

"No problem, don't worry, I could eat another portion."

Qin Tian nodded, his mouth stuffed with food, speaking indistinctly.

"Hey, hey, hey, Brother Tian, give me some too!"

Zhang Peng leaned over with a cheeky grin.

"Go away, go away, this was brought for me, there's none for you."

Qin Tian waved his hand without looking up, and even moved the container further inside.

"No way, you're too stingy!"

Zhang Peng had a miserable expression, watching the food in the bowl and swallowing his saliva.

Xia Nuannuan couldn't help but laugh, taking the lid of the thermal container and using a spoon to divide a little bit of food for him.

"I didn't bring enough, this is all I can give you."

"Haha, it's fine, it's fine, a little is enough. You're the generous one, Sister-in-law!"

Zhang Peng hurriedly took it, smiling broadly and offering a compliment.

Xia Nuannuan blushed even more.

Zhang Peng buried his head and shoveled rice into his mouth, unceremoniously competing with Qin Tian for the food.

"Hey, that's enough, don't fight me for it."

"You just ate in the canteen, can you even finish all this? I'm helping you share the burden."

"Get lost, I don't need it!"

"Yes, you do, yes, you do."

The two bickered while wolfing down their food.

Everyone in the classroom watched with envy.

Some people really wanted to go over and have a bite, but their relationship with Qin Tian wasn't as good as Zhang Peng's, so they were too embarrassed to go over.

"Tsk, eating in the classroom at this time, don't they know it affects others!"

Not far away, Xu Ying crossed her arms and muttered in disgust.

Beside her, Wu Xin was absent-mindedly flipping through a study material, sneering and mocking:

"The results are coming out soon, it's amazing he can still eat so happily."

He had also eaten in the canteen at noon, and looking at it now, he was actually quite hungry too, but of course, he wouldn't show it.

Xu Ying nodded in agreement: "You're right. The Math results should be announced after class starts. They won't be able to laugh for much longer."

…………………………………………

Within a few minutes, the two had swept away all the food Xia Nuannuan had brought.

Even the soup was drunk clean, without wasting a drop.

"Burp—"

Zhang Peng let out a belch without any regard for his image, rubbing his stomach with satisfaction and sighing: "So comfortable!"

"Get lost quickly, don't come next time, I didn't even get enough to eat!"

Qin Tian glared at him in feigned annoyance.

Zhang Peng ignored him entirely, smiling happily at Xia Nuannuan and saying: "Thanks for the treat, I'll go to the supermarket and buy you two a drink. What do you want?"

"No need."

Xia Nuannuan hurriedly waved her hand to decline.

"Don't be polite with him, hurry up and go. Buy us two bottles of Pulse. She wants the peach flavor, I'm fine with anything."

Qin Tian took over the conversation and said to Zhang Peng.

"Alright!"

Zhang Peng responded and turned to leave the classroom through the back door.

Qin Tian packed up the thermal container and handed it to Xia Nuannuan, saying: "Remember to thank Auntie for me, tell her the food was delicious, praise her a few more times, you know what I mean."

"Hehe... okay."

Xia Nuannuan couldn't help but nod, taking the thermal container and putting it into her drawer.

At this moment, the bell for the end of the lunch break rang.

The students in the classroom were mostly awake, starting to discuss the Math exam.

"Should the answer sheets be handed out this period?"

"Definitely. Several other classes have already handed them out. I have a buddy in Class 5 who said he scored over 120; I'm so envious."

"Ahhh, I'm so nervous, I don't know how much I scored in Math."

"I didn't even finish the last two big problems; I'm definitely done for this time. I hope I didn't make too many mistakes on the earlier ones."

"Who do you think will have the highest Math score this time?"

"Do we even need to guess? It must be Wu Xin. Hasn't his Math always been the strongest!"

"Hard to say, the Class Monitor might be it too!"

"No, no, Wu Xin's Math and Science are stronger; the Class Monitor is better at Chinese and English."

"That's true. What about Qin Tian? Do you think... could a miracle really happen?"

"No way, if miracles were that easy to happen, would they still be called miracles? I think he's just too confident."

"..."

Everyone had different opinions.

Regarding the bet between Qin Tian and Wu Xin, basically no one was optimistic about Qin Tian.

Everyone was more nervous about their own scores.

"Here comes Teacher Shen."

Someone suddenly exclaimed.

Hearing this, everyone's gaze turned in unison toward the corridor outside the classroom.

Sure enough, they saw a middle-aged male teacher carrying textbooks and a stack of answer sheets walking toward the front door of the classroom.

The Math teacher for Grade 12 Class 10 was named Shen Yi, in his early forties, who had been teaching graduating classes at Yucheng Middle School for years and was considered a teacher with quite strong teaching ability.

Seeing Teacher Shen walk into the classroom with a glowing face, looking like he was in a very good mood, everyone felt a sense of relief.

It seemed that for this mock exam, the class must have done quite well in Math.

Under everyone's gaze, Shen Yi walked onto the podium with a smile, placing the books and answer sheets in his hand on the desk.

In the classroom, the students' expectant gazes were naturally focused on that stack of answer sheets.

"Teacher Shen, do you need help handing out the answer sheets?"

A boy in the front row asked.

"Thanks, no need."

Shen Yi shook his head with a smile and said: "I'll hand them out one by one after class starts. There are some students this time who need to be specially commended."

Many students were surprised to hear this.

How did it feel like the situation was even better than they had imagined!

"Qin Tian, it seems like everyone did quite well in Math this time!"

Xia Nuannuan turned her head to look at Qin Tian beside her, saying with a lively tone.

Math had always been her weak point, but this time, she had some confidence.

Not to mention anything else, she felt very confident about the 70% of basic problems.

And for the few medium and difficult problems, Qin Tian had explained similar ones to her over the past few days.

"Mm!"

Qin Tian nodded with a smile.

He had already noticed that Teacher Shen on the podium had been glancing at him from the corner of his eye.
