Chapter 8: The Beautiful Woman Who Loves to Play with Knives

  "That's not right? R1 has an open circuit, and the current at both ends of R2 should increase." Zhou Yun asked in confusion. He had just finished reviewing his high school physics course on related circuits when he heard the teacher ask a question. Looking at the circuit diagram on the blackboard, he found that the answer given by the teacher was different from what he had learned in class, and Zhou Yun was suddenly confused.

  With a sudden sound, everyone immediately turned their heads and focused their attention on Zhou Yun. Unaware of what this model student was going to do next, most students looked at him with an attitude of watching a joke.

  The guy who always comes in last on exams actually dares to question the teacher's answers. He can't be intentionally trying to pick a fight with the teacher, right? No wonder people at school say he has a screw loose.

  "This... this classmate, can you tell me the reason?" Wang Degang wanted to call out Zhou Yun's name, but he suddenly realized that he didn't know Zhou Yun at all. He hastily looked at the seating chart posted on the lectern. In his impression, Class 3 of High School Year 3 seemed not to have a student with this number?

  It's not actually Wang De's fault. He was originally the physics teacher of the school's top class, and only took on the physics course for Class 3 in the second semester of senior year. Moreover, Zhou Yun liked to skip class, and even when he did attend school, he would just lie on his desk playing with his phone. So it was really a bit difficult for Wang De to get to know Zhou Yun.

  "Uh..." The first time being asked by the teacher, Zhou Yun stood up nervously and then cleared his mind: "That is, R1 has nodes at both ends and forms a parallel circuit with R2. If R1 is disconnected, the resistance will be close to infinity. According to the principle of parallel circuits, the current across R2 should increase, right?"

  When he said this, Zhou Yun's tone was slightly insufficient, and he didn't know whether his understanding of the book was right or wrong. However, his statement quickly received affirmation from the teacher.

  "Well said!! Too good!!" Clap, clap, clap... Wang De led the applause, and his classmates followed with wooden expressions. Many wondered if today was April Fool's Day...

  "A most basic question, and only Zhou Yun understood it. Look at all of you, not one of you paid attention in class. Everyone should learn from Zhou Yun!"

  Look at Zhou Yun? The classmates in the class are all staring foolishly at Wang De, isn't this letting everyone go to be a hoodlum together?

  Perhaps feeling uneasy under everyone's gaze, Wang De thought they were not convinced and immediately muttered in a huff: "What? Did I say anything wrong? Don't be unconvinced, take a look, it's such simple physics knowledge that you all learned in junior high school, but only he can apply it. You should really reflect on this after class..."

  Upon hearing this, almost all the classmates in the class rolled their eyes. Good heavens had actually played such a joke on them, asking them to look up to the worst student in terms of grades, how ridiculous.

  But then again, what's wrong with taking Zhou Yun as a role model? Hasn't he already turned over a new leaf and made up his mind to study hard? As the saying goes, "a prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold", and "returning home in glory to become a virtuous person". Mr. Wang wants us to learn from Zhou Yun's good qualities, not to learn how to be a hoodlum. It seems that we should all reflect on this carefully.

  King Dechao Zhou Yun smiled and let him sit down, then continued to lecture...

  Zhou Yun had just sat down when Xu Caiyue said with a hint of sarcasm, "How amazing! You mastered high school physics circuits in just thirty minutes. Are you the legendary genius? How come we never discovered this before?"

  A beauty with a pair of beautiful big eyes, narrowed into crescent moons, gazing at herself, making Zhou Yun's whole body feel uneasy.

  "What? Didn't the teacher say that already? It's just junior high knowledge, very simple... Class monitor, you've also discovered the problem, right?" Zhou Yun looked at Xu Caiyue's notes and was shocked to find that this little girl had long since seen through the fact that it was a wrong answer.

  "Yes." Xǔ Cǎi Yuè calmly admitted, and then continued to press Jiāng Yún: "My grades have always been the first in the class, it's only natural that I can find problems. But someone like you who doesn't study and is useless, can actually answer the teacher's questions, don't you think it's strange? Hehe, little cloud, don't be afraid, quickly tell the class monitor, why is this?"

  Xu Caiyue seemed like a wolf grandma, sweetly coaxing Zhou Yun. A pair of silken charming eyes occasionally flashed with exciting light. Today, Zhou Yun gave her a particularly special feeling, always exuding an inexplicable freshness.

  It's all over, Class Monitor has revealed a playful expression, scaring Zhou Yun to hurriedly cover his mouth and say: "Perhaps they're like you, knowing but not wanting to say."

  Actually, he himself didn't know how to explain it to Xu Caiyue. He couldn't just say that after eating three sugar pills, his brain opened up, could he? This kind of absurd talk, Zhou Yun dared not speak directly. Being sent to a mental hospital for examination was a small matter, but if Xu Caiyue's curiosity got the better of her and she took out a scalpel to dissect him, that would be disastrous.

  After hearing Zhou Yun's words, Xu Caiyue smiled softly: "Compared to correcting the questions, I prefer to see everyone being criticized by the teacher."

  Class 3 of High School has such a good class leader, it's really the blessing of eight lifetimes.

  "Hehe...... That's a good idea......" Zhou Yun awkwardly rubbed his nose and quickly listened to the lesson seriously. He was afraid that Xu Caiyue would continue to ask questions, which wouldn't be fun anymore. Fortunately, Xu MM's curiosity wasn't strong, seeing Zhou Yun intentionally diverting the topic, she didn't bother with trivial matters anymore. She was seen propping up her cheek and twirling a pencil, wondering what she was thinking about again......

  Time flies, and before he knew it, the school day was over. Zhou Yun also recovered from his studying state, closed his book and rubbed his slightly tired eyes. In just one afternoon, he had read through the entire high school physics textbook. Now all he needed to do was integrate the information in his mind, and he would be able to achieve his desired score.

  There are still fifteen minutes before school is dismissed. Zhou Yun hurriedly said to Xu Caiyue: "I have an urgent need to go to the toilet, I'll wait for you at the school gate after class."

  His real intention was to go to the school gate and wait for Xu Xuan. Every day after class, Zhou Yun would leave the classroom five to ten minutes early just to catch a glimpse of his crush.

  "Go, go, now there are only two months left before the college entrance exam, and you must cherish this opportunity. If you miss it, I'm afraid you won't be able to see each other again. Don't blame me, Xǔ Cǎi Yuè looks down on you, Xiǎo Yún is just a street thug, she's a noble young lady from a good family. You two are destined not to be together. Loser..."

  Zhou Yun had a secret crush on student representative Xu Xuan, and Xu Caiyue had known about it for a long time. Every day after school, Zhou Yun would stare blankly at Xu Xuan like an infatuated fool. Even if Xu Caiyue wanted to pretend she didn't know, she couldn't help but notice. However, her way of putting it was really too ruthless. Hearing this made Zhou Yun's heart feel a pang of bitterness. Although what Xu Caiyue said was true, the words sounded unpleasant coming from her mouth...

  "Captain Xu is right, it's impossible for me and her, but possible for you and me, okay?"

  If it were in the past, Zhou Yun would not have made a joke about Xu Caiyue. But today, for some reason, seeing Xu Caiyue who seemed gentle and elegant, he couldn't help but make a flirtatious remark.

  At some point, a fancy butterfly knife appeared in Xu Caiyue's hand, and she said with an unchanged smile: "To be with me? That would come at a great cost."

  The beauty was talking on one side and using a knife to cut off the corner of Zhou Yun's desk, wantonly destroying public property in school... This girl is indeed carrying a knife!

  Although Xu Caiyue's actions were like warning him, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will cut you with a knife. However, Zhou Yun is after all a big man, how can he tolerate a little woman riding on his head?

  Zhou Yun directly ignored Xu Caiyue's actions, glaring at her and saying: "Can't you just be a bit more tactful? Every time you speak, it's so sharp and sour. Be careful that no one will marry you in the future!"

  When he said this, even Zhou Yun himself felt strange, when did he become so bold.

  "Thank you, this is Class Monitor's greatest wish!" Xǔ Cǎi Yuè was overjoyed instead of angry.

  Will Xǔ Cǎi Yuè end up unmarried? That's impossible. In any case, she is a stunning beauty. Even compared to Xǔ Xuān, she doesn't lose out in the slightest. Unfortunately, her personality is a bit extreme; if only she spoke more gently and was more considerate of others, perhaps Zhōu Yún would have fallen for her long ago.

  Looking at that enchanting smile, Zhou Yun really couldn't understand. Why would God let such a beautiful girl have a venomous personality like a snake's tail? What a waste of heaven's gift...
