Chapter 552: Declining Politely

Upon entering the principal's office, Yue Qingqing saw Zhuang Lan and Qu Ruorui were also there, along with three other top-performing students.

Everyone was reminded of the scene when they were all called to the office at the start of ninth grade.

It felt vivid as if it was before their eyes.

A year really passed in the blink of an eye.

The principal's double chin had become even more pronounced, and he looked even more affable.

"This time, thank you all for bringing honor to the school!" the principal especially praised Yue Qingqing, "Ms. Yue not only courageously seized first place but also captured the third-best result in the entire province."

Zhuang Lan, however, countered, "Why isn't it the first in the province?"

In this test, Yue Qingqing's scores were near perfect; in mathematics, she didn't lose a single point.

Zhuang Lan couldn't think of anyone who could have surpassed her.
