Chapter 593: A Soft Touch

At that moment, Luo Hua could only stare at the ceiling when he found out about the Top 5 students.
There was no way these questions could’ve been leaked, but how could the five students all be from Cla.s.s 20?
He blinked in surprise when he had seen Yao Tang’s name on the list.
She could’ve gotten a grade higher, but she was far too lazy to finish her essay. She stopped right in the middle and handed over her paper. Even then, she still got sixth place!
He shook his head.
!!
How could these students score so high?
Chinese compositions had always been subjective, so it wasn’t surprising that they were a few points off the perfect score.
At first, they suspected that they must’ve had some device to cheat, but their solutions paper held different formulas. They had different approaches to solving their problems.
For example, in Mathematics, despite having the correct answer, their methods of solving the questions were extremely different. It definitely wasn’t plagiarized or stolen from another student.
Who would’ve thought that the five worst students would find their way to the top?
If these people could also perform like this in the college entrance examination, No. 1 High School would definitely rank first among the cities.
He shook his head. The citywide school rankings were determined by five factors.
The first factor included the average score of all the examinees. The second factor was on the number of students who had entered the top 100.
The third factor was the average score of their respective Top 10s.
The fourth factor was the number of top scorers in the college entrance examination.
The fifth factor was their position in the Math Olympiad.
It was a really interesting way to rank the schools.
However, through the years, these rankings have proven to be extremely effective in determining the best.
International Middle School had always been considered the best among them, and through the years, they had always relied on their top students.
In fact, the average students in No. 1 High School were not much different from that of International Middle School.
The only disadvantage they had were the outliers.
However, now that their worst students were performing extraordinarily well, they could easily catch up to international schools like theirs.
The thought made him smile.
He was so excited that he almost jumped from his seat.
If he could see No. 1 High School crawl to the top spot, then he’d finally be able to retire from his teaching career.
With this thought in mind, he walked to the door of Cla.s.s 20.
Glancing inside, he could already hear the waves of laughter echoing from the cla.s.sroom. He almost felt like he was back in his younger years.
It was different from the other cla.s.ses he had advised then. The lifeless looks and monotonous voices were nothing compared to this.
There, he felt like a problem-solving machine.
Every time he’d open his eyes and enter the cla.s.sroom, he’d either start doing questions, correcting answers, or reciting from the board.
At that moment, he couldn’t help but feel as if it was time he’d change his teaching philosophy.
Just then, the students of Cla.s.s 20 all looked to the side to see Luo Hua.
“Could it be that Director Luo came to congratulate us?”
Meng Yang whistled mockingly as a cheeky smile slipped into his lips.
Luo Hua originally disliked him, but after thinking things through, he found him to be quite adorable.
Moreover, they were children. It was normal for them to be so energetic.
“I’m actually here to congratulate all of you,” he said with a smile, finally coming back to his senses.
Seeing him look so serious, the students of Cla.s.s 20 were surprised. Even the language teacher couldn’t help but do a double take.
The smile on Meng Yang’s face dropped.
“Look, if you have anything to say, say it to our face,” he snapped. “We won’t fall for that little trick anymore.”
They all nodded firmly.
Luo Hua took a deep breath as his smile widened. He even chuckled a bit.
It seemed that Meng Yang was more scared of his smile than his angry self!
Upon seeing this, the young boy jumped from his seat and ran to the back of the cla.s.sroom. “Can you act a little more normal? Just scold me!” he whined, ducking his head.
This was far too scary!
