OLF3C – Chapter 3: He Was Lin Shen’s Greatest Solace

Lin Shen suddenly found that he even remembered clearly all the details of that absurd dream last night.

Inside his dream, it was the usually gentle and elegant brother next door, Yan Shuo, who did exactly like what Mo Juecheng had done.

Held his wrist with a strong grip and pinned him against the wall.

Lin Shen’s back was cold, but his chest was on fire.

Yan Shuo wasn’t as aggressive and handsome as Mo Juecheng.

But he had a notable appearance and a gentle, always appropriate tone of voice.

There was a time when he was Lin Shen’s greatest solace.

It was not an exaggeration to say that Yan Shuo was the only one that had been kind to him when Lin Shen, his brilliant and dazzling genius brother, and his little sister whom everyone loved appeared at the same time.

He was someone who could speak to Lin Shen without interrupting him or ignoring him, but would instead focus on listening to him as much as ever.

——This was something that not even Lin Shen’s parents could do.

That’s why Lin Shen had always liked to spend time with Yan Shuo.

He just never expected it.

He couldn’t believe that he would dream about that kind of Yan Shuo after reading that dog blood novel.

It’s not just his personality that was gone!

And specially……well…..

Lin Shen couldn’t help but touch his wrist again.

The red circle on the top had gradually dissipated, but the scalding heat of Mo Juecheng’s palm still seemed to remain on it.

His heart suddenly moved.

He didn’t feel anything in the dream, he wondered if Yan Shuo’s hands would also burn like this.

“Lin Shen!”

Just when Lin Shen was lost in thought, a solemn voice suddenly sounded before him.

When he looked up after returning to his senses, he saw that Senior Class F’s homeroom teacher, Li Xuqian, was already standing in front of him.

“There are still forty minutes before the start of the final exam.” Li Xuqian was a middle-aged man in his forties.

He was slightly taller than Lin Shen, and wore black-framed glasses.

At this time, he was looking at him seriously: “Where are you going to run off to?”

Li Xuqian paused, and before Lin Shen could open his mouth, he said again: “Have you read all the books you should read? Have you memorized the formula? If you have time to run around, why don’t you look at the rules? Don’t you want to hurry up and memorize a formula? You’re a senior in high school and you don’t even remember Newton’s second law! You’re still wandering around before the exam! Go back to class and read your books!”

Lin Shen: “……”

This sounds really……really familiar!

“You didn’t get a total of 100 points in all the five subjects you took in the last semester’s exam! You didn’t even get a ten in Biology or Mathematics, and you almost got a duck egg in Mathematics. What? You didn’t get a zero in Mathematics. Is this because you want to get another zero in physics?”

Lin Shen: “……”

Wait a minute teacher!

Li Xuqian spoke in a roundabout way that the amount of information was too much for Lin Shen to digest for a while!

Less than 10 in math and biology?

The total of the five subjects was not even 100 points?

Fell down!

It was no wonder that even the love-brained school heartthrob had mocked him.

This result…….even if you were blindfolded, it shouldn’t get this bad!

Li Xuqian looked at Lin Shen who was dumbfounded by his words, his face didn’t look too good.

But he took a few deep breaths, and when he spoke, his tone was much calmer than before: “When your brother was in high school, he was always number one in his grade. Your sophomore brother also dominates the number one in their grade all year round.”

He looked into Lin Shen’s eyes and said patiently, “So teacher believes that if you are willing to work hard, you won’t be inferior to them.”

Li Xuqian patted Lin Shen on the shoulder: “Go back and read your books.”

Lin Shen: “…Thank, thank you teacher.”

He’s still reeling from the shock.

He already knew that he had transmigrated into the Mary Sue campus romance novel, and that he’s also the middle child of the family.

Now it seems that his elder brother and younger brother in this world were again so good that they were praised by everyone.

Only him was a slag!

Although the novel didn’t give much more details about him.

But Lin Shen could already imagine it.

For all ages, the second child in the middle was always the object of neglect.

He even thought it was understandable why Lin Shen in the novel had a genius elder brother and younger brother, but he himself always took the last place in the exam.

You know, he always got the lowest score.

Especially according to the homeroom teacher, there were even more than once zero marks in maths and physics.

This was not an easy thing to do.

All right and all wrong, they were the chosen sons of the heavens.

Lin Shen was somewhat muddled as he followed the homeroom teacher back to the classroom.

With half an hour to go before the last physics exam of the month, the students were gradually returning to the classroom.

Lin Shen was the top amongst the worst students.

He even heard someone behind him whispering, “Bless Lin Shen for not being dissuaded, bless Lin Shen for not being dissuaded, bless Lin Shen for not being dissuaded! I don’t want to be in the bottom half of the exams and get beaten to death by my parents!”

Lin Shen: “…….”

He looked around the classroom and saw that Su Tiantian and Mo Juecheng were also in Class F.

Roughly feeling Lin Shen’s gaze, Mo Jucheng also turned his head to glance at him coldly.

Then under everyone’s astonished gaze, Mo Juecheng, who was sitting next to Su Tiantian, suddenly stood up and walked to Lin Shen’s side.

“You.” Mo Juecheng raised his chin to the classmate sitting on Lin Shen’s left side, “Get out of the way!”

The student stood up to give up his seat as the “Iceberg Demon” himself spoke up.

He even kindly wiped the table before he left.

Mo Juecheng sat down beside Lin Shen with a woosh.

He had no intention of preparing for the exam.

His straight pair of long legs stretched out cozily, and he squinted his eyes at Lin Shen.

“Eight points in math, three points in biology, thirty points in language, twenty-four points in English, seventeen points in chemistry…” said Mo Juecheng coldly, “I’d like to see how you can study hard and live up to your time.”

Lin Shen: “……”

He quickly made mental calculations, and it was really less than a hundred points in total!

At that moment, Li Xuqian arrived at the classroom with the exam papers in his hands.

Although all of them were curious why Mo Jucheng was suddenly paying attention to Lin Shen, they didn’t dare to gossip in front of the strict homeroom teacher.

The classroom went quiet. Li Xuqian looked around and started distributing the exam papers.

Lin Shen quickly got his own exam paper.

The questions on the exam paper were no different from those in the real world.

He had already took a science major in high school and his grades were pretty good.

Although he couldn’t compete with his genius brother, who was as evil as his family, his university was still one of the top 2 in the country.

In the real world, he was only a sophomore in college and still remembered a lot of what he had learned in high school.

The exam was not difficult for him.

Lin Shen picked up the pen and ‘shua shua shua’ began to write without thinking about it.

He did it fast.

His physics was actually not very good. In order to be admitted to the top 2 universities, he eliminated partial subjects.

He spent a lot of time on physics questions.

For some typical problems, you could write down the calculation steps and the answers without even thinking about them.

So while answering the question casually, he thought about the scores that Mo Juecheng had just given.

Eight in math, and only three in biology ….

Lin Shen really felt a bit of pain in the balls.

Soon, Lin Shen finished the last question.

He looked at the time and saw that only 40 minutes had passed since the exam started.

“Ah Shen!” At this moment, a small voice came from Lin Shen’s right side.

He looked up and saw Li Xuqian standing at the door of the classroom.

A teacher from another class was talking to him.

Lin Shen turned his head and saw the boy sitting next to him.

The name “Qian Mingming” appeared in his mind naturally.

The original owner’s best friend from Xingshang High School, a strong contender for the lowest spot of their grade.

Qian Mingming was looking at him enviously, and he whispered, “You actually filled up all the exam questions!”

He gave a thumbs-up to Lin Shen, “My dad said if I left any blanks on the paper this time, I wouldn’t be able to get up from bed for three days!”

Qian Mingming cried, “But I can’t write a word anymore.”

As he spoke, he craned his neck to look at Lin Shen’s exam paper, “Ah Shen, let me copy yours!”

Lin Shen hadn’t said anything yet when Mo Juecheng, who was sitting to his left, suddenly sneered: “You also copy the exam paper of the worst student in the whole grade?”

He obviously heard the conversation between Lin Shen and Qian Mingming, and said without any courtesy, “If you copy the question as it is written, the teacher might even give you a point for hard work.”

Mo Juecheng was clearly speaking to Qian Mingming, but his eyes looked at Lin Shen’s eyes: “Did you forget? At the end of last semester, your physics was…”

Mo Juecheng paused, dragged his voice out and said slowly, “Zero——points——”
