Chapter 574 Perhaps This Is How a Curve Breaker Is
Ye Lingchen could clearly see the nervousness on everyone’s face. All of them carried horrible expressions.
In most cases, the exam proctoring would not be that strict in university. There would still be a chance for them to cheat if they wanted to. However, this teacher was obviously not someone to be trifled with.
“F*ck, this woman is most likely going through menopause!” Little Gen retorted while the papers were being distributed. He could only blame his luck for running into such a proctor.
When the papers were in his hand, Ye Lingchen did not start immediately. Instead, he took his time to check on the students around him and watched them exhibit their skills.
Under the pressure exerted by the proctors, even if they had micro-printed notes, they had to be extra careful and check on the proctors’ movements from time to time. It was like a dangerous war.
However, because of the complexity of the politics test having various topics involved, it required them to obtain their answers from multiple notes for just one question. That had undoubtedly increased the game’s difficulty significantly. Several students were turning red from their anxiety trying to figure out a solution.
In that situation, they exchanged looks to pass messages, yet all they found were helpless and pained expressions from others.
After a while, Ye Lingchen shook his head, feeling amused. It was obvious that these people had not looked at their notes after making them. If they did that to familiarize themselves before cheating, then their efficiency would be much higher. At the very least, they would not have to keep searching around yet fail to find the main points.
Nevertheless, right then, over a dozen clumps of paper flew toward Ye Lingchen at the same time from around him.
Thud, thud!
One by one, they fell on Ye Lingchen’s desk. Some of them had even come from a distant corner in the exam hall, arcing through the air.
‘OMG, what are they doing?’
Ye Lingchen was flabbergasted. At the same time, he noticed the proctor who looked bored earlier being alerted, like a cat detecting the scent of a fish. The proctor raised her head suddenly and adjusted the glasses on her nose, locking her sharp gaze on Ye Lingchen.
‘You fools!’
The corner of Ye Lingchen’s mouth twitched slightly.
After that, with extreme agility, he swept his hands to keep all the paper balls.
Little Gen, Potato, Xiang, and the other students that threw the crumpled strips of paper at Ye Lingchen were all stunned. Most of them were from girls in the class.
Ye Lingchen was no doubt the center of attention, hence why most of them wanted to help him out. Seeing Ye Lingchen not doing anything and just shaking his head, they thought Ye Lingchen was about to give up. That led to them passing him strips of answers. Who would have thought that it would land him in trouble instead.
They quietly lowered their heads in regret.
Tap, tap, tap…
The clicking of high heels was like the sound of the grim reaper knocking on their doors. Just like a spirit, she instantly appeared beside Ye Lingchen.
“It’s you?” The proctor had obviously recognized Ye Lingchen.
Ye Lingchen squeezed a friendly smile on his face. “Hello, teacher.”
“It won’t matter even if you’re a celebrity. Hand it over.” The teacher opened her palm, waiting confidently.
“I’m not sure what you mean, teacher.” Ye Lingchen had great acting skills. He looked at the teacher innocently; his eyes seemingly pure.
“That sound from earlier should be the sound of balls of papers, isn’t it? There should be quite a lot of it too. You can’t hide them. Don’t force me to search your body,” the teacher threatened.
“Paper balls?” Ye Lingchen feigned surprise, then shook his head. “I really don’t have them. I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.”
After that, he stood up and emptied both his pockets. Following that, he straightened his hands and made a few jumps. Not a ball of paper was found.
The proctor’s brows furrowed into a frown as she looked at Ye Lingchen. He was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt. With his only two pockets emptied, there was nowhere else he could hide the paper. Following that, she looked around his desk for some time, unable to find a single strip of paper.
‘Where could the paper go in such a short time? Could it be that this guy knows magic?’
The proctor looked at Ye Lingchen suspiciously. However, when faced with that innocent and handsome face, she could not help but feel remorseful.
‘Perhaps I’ve made a mistake.’
After that, she took a glance at Ye Lingchen’s papers and chuckled. “Empty paper?”
The next instant, she sat right next to Ye Lingchen, showing a victorious expression. “Answer your questions. I won’t leave until you finish!”
All the students immediately gave Ye Lingchen sympathetic looks.
Ye Lingchen shrugged nonchalantly, then began to answer the questions leisurely.
Why did he do that? It was obviously to help the other students divert attention. Now that the proctor’s attention was on him, the others would have less pressure over them. He helped them create a better environment to do their thing.
First were single-answer multiple-choice questions, then multiple-answer multiple-choice questions, followed by a summary.
The multiple-answer multiple-choice questions were no doubt the hardest as no points would be awarded if one missed an answer or picked the wrong answer. One would have no idea how many choices to pick by guessing.
The summary questions were much easier. They only needed to repeat what was written in the politics textbook. Of course, that was if they could remember the contents.
At first, the proctor had a cold ruthless look on her face, waiting for Ye Lingchen to embarrass himself. However, as Ye Lingchen answered the questions, her expression began to change over time. Finally, it was fully replaced by a look of shock.
She was a politics teacher at the graduate student level. She was naturally familiar with these questions. From the first to the last question, Ye Lingchen had picked all the correct answers!
That was not something he could achieve through guesswork.
By the time he reached the summary questions, Ye Lingchen had smoothly written down all the answers. All the main points were clearly organized. First point, second point, followed by their interpretation. Moreover, his answers were almost a perfect copy of the information in the textbooks.
‘F*ck h*ll, this guy is a curve breaker!’
The proctor’s expression kept changing. She finally could not resist asking, “Since you know all of them, why did you leave it blank earlier?”
“Oh, I’ve just lost myself on the path of life.”
The proctor was speechless.
Feeling defeated, she left, once again moving her attention to the other students. There was no point for her to continue proctoring Ye Lingchen.
Right then, Ye Lingchen was finally free to check the cheat sheets they threw at him.
“AABCD, CCABA…I’ll pass the summary answer to you after I finish them.”
He felt touched!
Those are awesome classmates.
Unfortunately, the accuracy of the answers was lower than 50 percent. It was a miracle for them to still think of him in such a situation.
Some of the cheat sheets even had a message written on them. “Hang in there! Wait for my answer!”
Although these teammates were quite the hassle, he was still thankful for their good intentions.
Letting out a long sigh, it was rude of him to not return the favor. ‘Since you guys have treated me sincerely, how can I let you down?’
Ye Lingchen immediately made a copy of his answers. His writing speed was blindingly fast and his handwriting neat. It was not much different from a printing press. He quickly made five copies of the cheat sheet.
After that, he threw it toward Little Gen and the others. His shooting technique was undoubtedly good. Not only did it land accurately in front of them, but it also did not produce the slightest sound.
After that, he stood up and casually walked up front to hand in his paper.
However, while he passed by the girl sitting in front of him, he stealthily placed a ball of paper on that girl’s desk.
With that, all was complete!
At that time, everyone looked at Ye Lingchen’s back with their eyes showing great respect. Perhaps that was how a curve breaker behaved…
