Qin Jiu and Gu Zheng handed in their papers almost at the same time this time. Not long after she came out, she heard Gu Zheng's voice behind her.

"Wang Ling said that the teacher of the mechanical engineering department wanted to see you. Didn't you read the message?"

Qin Jiu stopped and opened the terminal. She found that Wang Ling had indeed sent her a message. She said, "Oh, I didn't see it just now. I'll go now."

Gu Zheng thought that since he was free anyway, he might as well go and take a look: "I'll go with you."

The two of them were walking on the school road, and the gazes coming from all around were too strong to be ignored.

Although as members of the student union they received a lot of attention in Star King, most of the looks were friendly.

And now, Gu Zheng could clearly feel the malice in their eyes.

However, these malicious intentions were not directed at himself, but at Qin Jiu.

Gu Zheng looked at Qin Jiu, and Qin Jiu continued walking forward as if nothing had happened, as if he didn't feel their gaze at all.

Gu Zheng discovered that Qin Jiu was sometimes extremely insensitive, but sometimes very sharp.

I don’t know if she really couldn’t feel it, or if she selectively ignored the gazes around her.

Gu Zheng forced himself to ignore the gazes of others and quickened his pace forward.

Qin Jiu saw him suddenly speed up and quickly caught up with him, asking curiously: "Are you in a hurry? Why are you walking so fast?"

Gu Zheng was speechless for a moment. His eyes fell on Qin Jiu's face, which was still full of innocence and ignorance. He sighed and said, "Let's go faster. It's cold outside."

Qin Jiu heard this and fumbled in her pocket as she walked. Soon, she took out a thermostat chip and handed it to Gu Zheng: "Is your thermostat chip broken? I have a spare one here, use it."

Gu Zheng didn't accept it and pushed it back: "Keep it for yourself, I have more."

Qin Jiu did not force Gu Zheng to accept it. After all, Gu Zheng looked in good condition and did not seem to be holding on.

Gu Zheng did not talk to her again. The two of them walked for more than ten minutes before they arrived at the mechanical building.

Led by Qin Jiu, the two found the teacher's office and saw Wang Ling inside, both of them looked puzzled.

Wang Ling was not too surprised when she saw Gu Zheng following her.

After all, Gu Zheng has a rather strange personality. He doesn't make friends easily, but once he makes friends, he becomes extremely dependent on them.

He and Qin Jiu finished the exam together, so it was expected that he would follow Qin Jiu.

Qin Jiu and Gu Zheng greeted the teacher respectfully. The teacher looked at Qin Jiu with complicated eyes and said carefully: "Qin Jiu, do you mind if I ask you a few questions?"

Qin Jiu was a little puzzled, but still nodded and said, "Teacher, please ask."

After getting Qin Jiu's affirmative answer, the teacher started to ask a few questions related to mechanical engineering.

Wang Ling remained silent and listened to their conversation quietly.

The questions the teacher asked were not difficult, but the angles were very tricky and required careful consideration. You had to avoid all possible pitfalls before you could get the correct answers.

Qin Jiu looked confused. She didn't understand the meaning of the teacher's question, but she still answered his question seriously.

Wang Ling discovered that Qin Jiu spoke almost the moment the teacher asked a question, without even having to think about it. His mastery of the knowledge points was truly proficient.

The more Wang Ling listened, the more frightened he became.

He turned his head to look at the teacher and found that the teacher's face was also full of surprise, and the shock in his heart was no less than his own.

After Qin Jiu answered the last question, the office fell into silence.

Although Gu Zheng couldn't understand it all, since mechas and machines have something in common, he still had some knowledge points.

It is for this reason that Gu Zheng can be sure that some of her answers are correct.

He listened to Qin Jiu's answers in amazement, and considering the teacher's expression, he knew that Qin Jiu must have answered all the questions correctly.

But...how did she manage to remember everything in just one week?

Could it be that she is really a genius?

The teacher had regained his composure, but he looked at Qin Jiu as if he had seen a ghost.

It’s incredible that I can learn half a semester’s worth of content in just one week and still remember it so clearly!

The teacher turned on the screen, handed Qin Jiu's test paper to her, and said, "I heard that you were taking the test just now. You probably don't know that we have released the results yet, right? This is your test paper. You got second place."

Qin Jiu didn't show much joy when she heard the second place. She didn't pay attention to her own results, but asked: "Who is the first place?"

The teacher's mouth twitched slightly. Why did it feel like she was not satisfied with the result?

He pointed at Wang Ling beside him and said, "Wang Ling is the first place, two points higher than you."

Qin Jiu then nodded slightly. It would be acceptable if Wang Ling took first place.

Upon hearing that Qin Jiu not only ranked second but also scored only two points lower than Wang Ling, a thunderclap sounded in Gu Zheng's mind. He stood there in a daze, his eyes widening as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.

He turned his head stiffly and looked at Wang Ling who was sitting next to the teacher, his eyes seemed to ask: Is what he said true?

Wang Ling noticed Gu Zheng's gaze, and he nodded in affirmation with a wry smile.

Gu Zheng raised his hand blankly, pointing back and forth between Wang Ling and Qin Jiu, and opened his mouth but could not speak.

Qin Jiu was amused by his appearance. She waved her hand in front of his eyes and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

Gu Zheng seemed to be awakened by Qin Jiu's voice, and his eyes finally focused.

He couldn't control his voice and asked loudly, "You ranked second? Two points behind Wang Ling?"

Qin Jiu: "Really?"

Gu Zheng snatched the light screen from her hand and observed the traces of the teacher's grade changes for a long time before accepting the reality.

Some ideas in his mind collapsed.

Seeing that he looked like he was struck by lightning, Qin Jiu took the initiative to comfort him, "I am OK at studying, but I can't do any of your manual labor."

Gu Zheng’s expression was uglier than crying.

He always felt as if he was humiliated by the word "okay".

Suddenly remembering that they had just come out of the same examination room, he asked tentatively: "What about the exam just now? Did you find it difficult?"

Qin Jiu thought for a moment and replied: "Fortunately, it seems to be much simpler than the questions in the mechanical major."

Gu Zheng: ...

He pretended to sniffle and sat next to Wang Ling with a wronged look on his face.

He and Wang Ling are in the same lineup!

The teacher was also a little shocked after listening to their conversation. It seems that he needs to talk to the teacher of the mecha major later to see if he can see Qin Jiu's score in advance.

However, he did not forget his main purpose. He said to Qin Jiu, "I called you here mainly to ask you, do you agree that I should make your test paper public? Because some voices from the outside world are not favorable to you, I think the best explanation is to let them see your answers."

Qin Jiu shrugged indifferently: "I don't mind."

After getting the answer, the teacher will immediately announce it on the academic affairs system and send the clarification draft prepared in advance together.

After doing all this, the teacher looked at Qin Jiu with a smile.

Qin Jiu had a sense of déjà vu...

"Qin Jiu, are you interested in taking another minor subject?"

Qin Jiu:……?
