Chapter 255
Finally, the class was over...
As soon as the bell rang, Shen Nanchu was called away by Sun Ming.
Instantly, the classroom erupted into chaos.
Many students gathered around Pei Yunzhou, chattering and asking questions.
"Pei Yunzhou, do you know what Shen Nanchu is seeing Teacher Sun for?"
"Pei Yunzhou, did your sister-in-law go to complain to Teacher Sun?"
"Pei Yunzhou, the rumors spreading around the school aren't true, are they?"
...
Surrounded three layers deep, Pei Yunzhou was heavily besieged.
Soon, the news that Shen Nanchu went to see the teacher and was called out grew wings and reached Qin Rong's ears.
Feeling guilty, she sat in her seat, fidgeting restlessly.
She kept her eyes glued to the classroom door, terrified that a teacher might come looking for her.
However, she also felt she hadn't said anything wrong.
A clear conscience laughs at false accusations.
That Shen Nanchu was a widowed sister-in-law anyway; seducing her own brother-in-law was simply shameless.
She wasn't wrong.
That's right, it was the truth.
Qin Rong kept reassuring herself in her mind.
Little did she know, Shen Nanchu didn't take her seriously at all.
Once Sun Ming reported the matter, it not only alarmed the department heads but also shocked the university's top management.
The school leaders knew that Shen Nanchu had the backing of the Cultural Heritage Bureau.
After all, Director Guo had called the leaders of Jing University more than once for Shen Nanchu's sake.
Moreover, they had indeed learned from various subject teachers that Shen Nanchu's level of professional knowledge was exceptionally high.
How could they not satisfy such a minor request from a once-in-a-century talent?
After discussing it, they had Sun Ming invite her over.
...
Inside the Principal's office.
Shen Nanchu sat there calmly and composed.
Department Head Yu Hongbin and Principal Liang Guoming exchanged a few glances. Finally, Department Head Yu Hongbin spoke first.
"Student Shen, the school has discussed and approved your request."
"However, Jing University has never set such a precedent. To silence any potential gossip, all your exam results must reach the 'Excellent' grade."
Yu Hongbin looked at Shen Nanchu,
"What do you..."
Before Yu Hongbin could finish asking what she thought, Shen Nanchu nodded,
"No problem."
Even if the school asked her to rank in the top three of the entire grade, Shen Nanchu wouldn't feel the slightest bit of pressure.
In the apocalypse, Shen Nanchu had relied purely on her true abilities to become a renowned biologist in Huaxia.
Yu Hongbin and Liang Guoming did not expect Shen Nanchu to agree so readily.
The two older men exchanged a glance.
They didn't think Shen Nanchu was being arrogant; it was obvious she was brimming with confidence.
"Student Shen, there are less than three short days left until the exams."
"Yes, I know."
The expression on Shen Nanchu's face remained utterly placid.
"As you know, the freshman and junior exams for the Archaeology Department are on the same day."
Yu Hongbin glanced at Shen Nanchu,
"Although you are taking exams to skip grades, you still cannot skip the freshman exams."
Before Yu Hongbin could propose a solution, Shen Nanchu beat him to it.
"I can take both exams at the same time."
Thump.
Everyone present felt their hearts skip a heavy beat.
"Hand me the freshman and junior exam papers at the same time, and I'll take them directly."
Shen Nanchu's relaxed words sent shockwaves through everyone's minds.
What kind of capability must one possess to be so bold?
"Alright."
"Since you are taking two exam papers at once, we will extend your time by one hour."
Liang Guoming looked at Shen Nanchu with burning eyes.
"Okay."
An hour more or an hour less was not a big deal to Shen Nanchu.
...
By the time Shen Nanchu returned to the classroom, the final class of the day was already in session.
Pei Yunzhou suppressed his curiosity and endured until the class ended,
"Sister-in-law, what did you go off to do?"
Shen Nanchu looked around at the curious classmates who were pricking up their ears to listen, a gleam flashing in her eyes,
"I went to do something big."
"What big thing?"
Zhang Qiang leaned over.
Shen Nanchu smiled, smiling very happily.
"Skipping grades!"
What?
Skipping grades!
The words were tossed out like a stone that stirred up massive waves.
What kind of monster was she?
They were already half-dead just trying to cope with the regular exams, and here she was, directly skipping grades.
They were all human, so why was the gap so huge?
The fire of jealousy spread like wildfire.
[Disgust Points +5]
[Disgust Points +10]
[Disgust Points +14]
...
"Great Host, it really has to be you!"
The system was completely in awe of Shen Nanchu.
With this wave of operation, the disgust points were doubling.
"This is nothing yet. Just wait! The real surprise is still to come!"
...
Over the next three days, without knowing who helped spread it, the news that Shen Nanchu was skipping grades to take the junior final exams blew across every corner of Jing University like the wind.
[Disgust Points +7]
[Disgust Points +8]
[Disgust Points +9]
...
Everyone at Jing University was talking about Shen Nanchu.
There were plenty of topics regarding Shen Nanchu.
Things like a widowed sister-in-law seducing her brother-in-law, driving a car to school to show off her wealth, pretending to be a top student to skip grades...
Shen Nanchu became completely famous—infamous, to be exact.
This was exactly the result Shen Nanchu wanted.
If she wasn't infamous, where would the disgust points come from?
Shen Nanchu, the person in question, wasn't angry, but Pei Yunzhou was furious.
Every time he saw a group of people gossiping, he would rush up and lecture them, telling them how amazing and wonderful his sister-in-law was.
It would have been better if he hadn't explained, because once he did...
Oh boy, the rumors became even more colorful.
Not only did the widowed sister-in-law hook up with one brother-in-law, but she had also firmly captured the heart of another brother-in-law...
[Disgust Points +10]
[Disgust Points +11]
[Disgust Points +12]
...
Pei Yunzhou was incredibly angry.
"Sister-in-law, aren't you mad that these people are talking about you like that?"
"Rumors stop with the wise."
Shen Nanchu remained completely unruffled.
"The exams are tomorrow. Just focus on reviewing your books well. You don't need to worry about anything else."
"Okay."
Pei Yunzhou agreed verbally, but he was still entirely unconvinced in his heart.
How could Shen Nanchu not see through Pei Yunzhou's thoughts?
"Stay calm."
"Once your sister-in-law finishes the exams, do you think these people will still be able to act so smug?"
Pei Yunzhou's eyes instantly lit up.
"That's right!"
"When you successfully skip grades, sister-in-law, every single one of these people slandering you will be slapped in the face."
"Let's see if they can still be smug and run their foul mouths then!"
Shen Nanchu smiled as she watched Pei Yunzhou complain.
Her good little brother!
She was only afraid that once the news of her successful grade-skipping came out, the disgust points would surge even more fiercely.
Who asked her to have both beauty and talent, and be excellent in every way?
Heaven is jealous of heroic geniuses.
Even God was jealous of a talent like her, let alone the ordinary mortals in Jing University.
But that was fine.
Let the rumors multiply!
Let the disgust points come even more fiercely!
\(￣︶￣*\))
She could handle it!
