Chapter 2466
Leon Batton's table was empty apart from a small slice of toast.
Other students were baffled at the sight as they stood around him.
"Does Leon like toasts?"
"Quick, write that down! We'll give him toasts next time!"
"Yeah, this is an important detail. Hurry up, and write it down. We could sell this information to other people!"
Some students from Class A began writing in their notebooks while Leon ignored them all.
He unzipped the bag and then started to munch on the toast.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
The teacher arrived by the time he was almost done eating,
The first lesson was a slightly boring language class. Leon memorized everything he read in the first round, so it wasn't difficult for him at all.
The teacher randomly selected Leon to recite a passage from the textbook.
"Leon, please stand up to recite the passage for the class," the teacher said.
Out of respect for his teacher, he set his phone down and did as told.
“Lte and Leon have been on their phones the entire time without even looking at their books," one student whispered to another. "I've heard that he never once touched his book since the start, so how could he have memorized any of it?"
Lte knew that her brother would never forget anything he read, and there was nothing to worry about. Hence, she kept her head down and continued to scroll through Weibo.
"Okay," Leon answered.
"All right, Leon. You may begin," the teacher urged with a nod.
"However, may I know which passage I'm supposed to recite?" Leon asked calmly.
"This was last week's homework.
You're supposed to memorize the
ancient text.titled 'The Curiel Family","his teacher replied in annoyance. He figured that if Leon didn't even know which passage to memorize, he wouldn't be able to recite it.
What Leon said next made him even more upset.
"Which page is it on?" he asked, retrieving a brand new and seemingly untouched language textbook from his drawer from what the other students could tell.
"Leon, I hope you can respect me a little more in the future. I clearly explained all this last Wednesday. Why are you only asking me now if you can't recite the passage, you have to write it down a hundred times as punishment!" his teacher expressed with frustration.
He knew the siblings were academically gifted, but memorizing and reciting had nothing to do with inborn talent.
"I can recite it," Leon insisted calmly despite being yelled at in front of his classmates.
His teacher scoffed at that. "You
don't even know which page it's on,
yet you think you can recite it all? The Curiel Family has a total of eight hundred words. Stop spewing nonsense and start writing
"I said I can recite it. Aren't you even going to give me a chance?" the student questioned with a smile.
"Yeah, you should at least give Leon a chance, Teacher," the class monitor with a crush on Leon spoke up.
"Fine, but this doesn't change the outcome anyway," the teacher said impatiently, locking eyes with Leon. "The Curiel Family's passage is on page 156."
Nodding after hearing his reply, Leon glanced down and flipped to page 156 of the textbook before skimming through the page casually and closing the book.
