Start as a top student after transmigrating.

On the way to school.

Ye Wanwan sat on the back of the bicycle, and it seemed that the cold winter wind was so strong that tears welled up in her watery eyes.

But it wasn't the wind that made her want to cry; it was because she wasn't upset, but moved.

Before leaving Chen Dong's house, Zeng Ling packed several sets of clothes for her, including a warm down jacket, a sweater, and winter pants.

She didn't want it, but Zeng Ling said, "They're all old clothes, don't look down on them." Chen Dong, standing nearby, said, "If you don't care, then forget it."

She showed no disdain or contempt, only deep gratitude.

In the past two days, she has come to realize that Dong Ge's hurtful words were actually out of concern for her. Aunt Zeng Ling also felt sorry for her when they first met, which she appreciated. This also touched upon the grievances and longing that she had buried deep in her heart since childhood.

She misses her mother...

"Little Leaf, where is your hometown?"

Chen Dong could understand how Ye Wanwan felt at that moment, and he wanted to get to know this silly girl better.

"My home is in Fangshan Village," Ye Wanwan replied softly from behind.

"Fangshan Village? Where is that?"

Chen Dong searched his memory, but found no information about Fangshan Village.

"It's very far." Ye Wanwan didn't give a specific address, only that it was very far away.

"Do you have any relatives back in your hometown?" Chen Dong didn't ask for details about the address; his family situation was what he was most concerned about.

"Only my grandma is left."

At this point, Ye Wanwan couldn't help but sob, and tears streamed down her face once again.

crunch~

Chen Dong suddenly slammed on the brakes, and Ye Wanwan, due to inertia, crashed forward into his back. Chen Dong seemed to feel nothing, but his heart suddenly trembled, and he felt a suffocating pain.

"I'm sorry~" Chen Dong turned around and apologized, feeling a pang of guilt as he looked at Ye Wanwan, who was crying with her head down.

Although Ye Wanwan didn't say it explicitly, the implication of "only my grandmother is left" was very clear: this girl's parents were gone...

He's really in just as bad shape as he was back then.

"Waaah..."

Ye Wanwan already missed her mother, and when this topic came up again, her longing became uncontrollable, like a dam breaking, and she threw herself into Chen Dong's arms and cried bitterly.

Chen Dong remained silent, only raising his hand to gently pat her back. He knew this girl needed to vent her emotions.

……

"Accident, Brother Mo, you don't even know such a simple word?"

"I'm a beginner, can you give me a little hint?"

"It's an accident."

"I know what you mean, I'm asking how to spell it."

"I'm going to tell you how to spell it, why would I need to do a dictation?"

When Chen Dong and Ye Wanwan arrived at the classroom, Jiang Lina was giving Liu Yumo an English spelling test, but the latter was scratching his head and couldn't write the words.

"Still haven't memorized it?"

Chen Dong walked over with a smile.

"This is too difficult!"

Liu Yumo looked up and complained, when he suddenly noticed that Ye Wanwan in the front row was wearing a down jacket for the first time ever, and it was a women's style, not the one Dong Ge had.

Curious, he asked, "Brother Dong, what's going on?"

"What's going on?"

Chen Dong put down his schoolbag and organized his books, not understanding what Liu Yumo meant.

"Our Sister Ye," Liu Yumo gestured forward with his lips.

Jiang Lina was also curious.

Not only them, but the students who came to the classroom were also very curious about Ye Wanwan. Ye Wanwan was basically the epitome of poverty in the class. Even in the dead of winter, she was dressed very thinly and had never been seen wearing a down jacket.

Except for Chen Dong's case.

"It's just a down jacket, what's the big deal?" Chen Dong laughed.

"Did Brother Dong buy it for you?" Liu Yumo asked tentatively.

"Just focus on your dictation. It's only fifteen words, and you've been putting it off since last night and still can't remember them. Don't blame me for punishing you later." Chen Dong glared at him, avoiding the topic of clothes.

"Almost there, almost there~" Liu Yumo chuckled sheepishly.

When Chen Dong was preparing to give him a dictation in the morning, he begged Chen Dong to give him more time. When he arrived at the classroom and saw Jiang Lina, he wanted to try, but he still couldn't remember everything.

"Lina, do you want to hit him?"

Chen Dong looked up at Jiang Lina and asked with a smile.

"How do we fight?"

Jiang Lina blinked, looking curious and expectant.

"You give him a dictation test. Each break in the afternoon counts as one chance. If he gets it wrong, you hit him. If he still can't write it by the end of the afternoon, then you beat him to death."

Jiang Lina is willing to play with them and is currently giving Liu Yumo a dictation test, which is a good thing. We might as well hand this task over to Jiang Lina.

"Brother Mo, you wouldn't hit a girl, would you?"

Jiang Lina found it very interesting and looked at Liu Yumo with some excitement.

Class time is coming soon.

Zhou Houdong walked into the classroom with yesterday's Chinese composition, called out names and handed them out. Chen Dong didn't listen and studied at his pace.

But Zhou Houdong called his name very quickly and said a few more words.

"Chen Dong's essay this time was excellent. He was one of only two students in the class to score above 55, and his score was the highest at 57. Let's give him a round of applause."

In an instant, almost the entire class turned their gaze toward Chen Dong, filled with shock and disbelief.

How many?

57 point?

How could Dong Ge write such a high-scoring essay?

"Holy crap, 57 points! Dong-ge, are you cheating?" Liu Yumo exclaimed on the spot.

If we're talking about composure, Ye Wanwan is probably the only one who can pull it off.

She knew how terrifying Chen Dong's learning ability was. As long as Dong-ge was willing to learn, he would definitely learn well. This was just the beginning; what followed would only be more astonishing.

"Chen Dong, come and get your essay." Zhou Houdong said with a smile.

Chen Dong had no choice but to put down his pen and head towards the podium.

"Slap slap~"

The whole class snapped out of their daze and burst into enthusiastic applause. This was the first time he had been praised by the teacher, and also the first time he had received a round of applause and praise from the entire class.

"Your composition is very well written. Keep up the good work!" Zhou Houdong encouraged him from the podium.

"I will definitely try my best," Chen Dong replied.

"You have a great talent for writing. You should practice writing more often, maintain this level, read more to improve your comprehension, and improve your understanding of other topics. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me privately," Zhou Houdong advised him.

"Okay, thank you, teacher."

It's rare to find a teacher willing to give him extra tutoring.

This is a good start.

"Chen Dong is the best example. As long as you are willing to learn, even if you start learning now, you will definitely gain something. I hope that you can learn from Chen Dong and make the most of the remaining time."

"Let's give Chen Dong another round of applause, and also encourage ourselves."

Another round of enthusiastic applause followed.

Chen Dong continued attending classes and doing practice problems.

Liu Yumo seemed to be encouraged by Chen Dong as well, and finished the dictation during the first break. Jiang Lina didn't even have a chance to "settle personal scores" and volunteered to continue supervising tomorrow.

Soon, the four classes ended.

Jiang Lina jogged over from her seat, "Dong-ge, Mo-ge, let's go, I'll take you to eat in the cafeteria."

"I want to eat meat."

Liu Yumo was preparing to give Jiang Lina a good beating. He could tell that Jiang Lina had received power from Dong Ge and was eager to try to beat him up.

"Brother Mo isn't eating vegetarian food anymore?"

Jiang Lina blinked and teased, "The green vegetables are delicious."

Liu Yumo: "..."
