Jungkook looked calmly at the stash of love letters in blue and pink envelopes before throwing them all into the trash can. Then, s he positioned hid backpack properly into the desk drawer and placed the books on his desk accordingly. 5:3 Physics, Yungang Thirty Sets of Secret Past Papers, One Thousand Best High School Physics Questions. The other students twitched their eyes upon seeing the reference materials. Were all transfer students this diligent? The newbie threw out all love letters without reading them and made space for these books instead.

“I certainly didn’t expect this… It seems that our new classmate is completely focused on studies rather than the lovey-dovey stuff.” (He teased jokingly.)
Min Yoongi
Min Yoongi
(He shifted his gaze toward Sunghoon who was sitting next to him.) “Hey, Brother Sunghoon. Did you speak with the new student yesterday when you went to collect books together?”
A look of indifference washed over Sunghoon face. It appeared that he was uninterested in this topic. Yoongi did not expect to receive a reply from him anyway. He placed both arms behind his head and teased slowly.
Min Yoongi
Min Yoongi
“Aha, both the handsomest and prettiest students of the school are in our class. It’s only going to get more interesting.”
Rowoon ran into the classroom as the bell rang. He looked carefully at So-hee who was sitting in front.
Rowoon
Rowoon
“What are you talking about?! The prettiest student has always been in our class!”
Yoongi smiled but did not comment further. So-hee used to be the prettiest student in their school, but that position had been taken over by Jungkook. Surely things were not the same as before. Although the beautiful boy was infamous for almost pushing another student down the stairs on her first day at school, his impeccable beauty triumphed over his poor reputation, making him the apple of many boys’ eyes. The stash of love letters across the desk was enough evidence to build the case. So-hee? She was nowhere near that level.
Rowoon
Rowoon
He tapped on the back of So-hee seat. “So-hee?”
She looked over her shoulder to see him handing over two sheets of paper eagerly.
Rowoon
Rowoon
“I finished writing the apology essay!” (A total of 1500 words. His hand was unquestionably sore!)
Lee So-Hee
Lee So-Hee
(Her face froze for a split second.)

Min Yoongi
<He rolled his eyes.> (💭Given his emotional intelligence, it was no wonder Rowoon still could not win over So-hee heart after all these years. He should be grateful that she could refrain from slapping him!)
Lee So-Hee
Lee So-Hee
(She regained her composure. She smiled faintly before replying softly,) “Thank you, but you wrote this for BrotherJungkook. You should pass it to him”
Rowoon finally realized she was in rather low spirits. There were also dark circles beneath her eyes. He scratched his head helplessly.
Rowoon
Rowoon
“Eh? Oh, alright! But So-hee, did you have a poor night’s sleep? Is it because of nerves since the competition is approaching?”
Lee So-Hee
Lee So-Hee
(She shook her head.) “It’s nothing. I just didn’t sleep well.”
Rowoon
Rowoon
“Oh,”
He mumbled quietly, not wanting to continue pestering her. He rose to his feet and walked over to Jungkook seat.
Rowoon
Rowoon
“Here you go!”
Rowoon

Jungkook received the papers and scanned through the writing. Indeed, Lin Rowoon was experienced in writing apology essays. His writing was great

(Nodded.)

Jungkook
“Not bad.”
Rowoon
Rowoon
(A smirk spread across his face as he raised his brows proudly.) “Of course. I’m an expert in this!”
Jungkook
Jungkook
“...” (he did not know what to say.)
Yoongi turned his head over. He could not bear to watch this anymore. Jungkook left to hand in the apology essay.
Dean of Students’ office.
Sun Namkoong looked at the apology essay. His eyebrows twitched upon thinking of her test paper from the other day which he scored. Finally, he gave in and accepted the essay.
Sun Namkoong
Sun Namkoong
“Alright, it’s fine as you’ve acknowledged your mistake. There’d better be no second time.”
Jungkook
Jungkook
(nodded)
Looking at the boy standing in front of him, Sun Namkoong recalled the rumors he heard today and thought of commenting on that. However, the crystal clear eyes staring back at him made him realize that would be unnecessary. This was a smart kid who knew what he wanted.
Sun Namkoong
Sun Namkoong
(He waved his hand dismissively in the air.) “Go on, head back to class.”
On the way, Jungkook received a notification about a payment transfer. Jiang Fan had deposited the money into hid account. he looked at the balance in his bank account. After doing a quick calculation in his head, he cheered up a little after finding out he could live comfortably for the time being. The first period of the morning was mathematics. Ha Ji Won, the mathematics teacher, was a middle-aged woman in her early 40s. She continued going through the previous test papers in this lesson. Jungkook had asked for a copy of the test papers from Sunghoon yesterday but had not completed them. On second thought, he picked out a book from the desk. he opened the book, chose a black ballpoint pen, and began solving the questions. This first section of the page consisted of single-choice questions on key physics theories. Jungkook started dissecting the first question, which talked about force field analysis. After scanning through the question, she answered A in the brackets. he moved on to the second and third questions quickly. Soon, he completed the first page almost without stopping and flipped through to the second page. Ha Ji Won had noticed the transfer student sitting in the corner of the classroom from the beginning. The new student had been attracting attention since his first day joining the school. It was said that he was a challenging one. However, they placed him into First Class because of his connections with the Lee family. Ha Ji Won disliked this sort of student the most. Students in First Class were potential seedlings to enter top-grade education establishments. The class’ future average grade would undoubtedly be lowered by this weak student. Sun Namkoong did not publicize the results Jungkook obtained from the test the other day. He planned to call for a small meeting with other teachers today, but Ha Ji Won had no idea of that. She stopped the lecture upon noticing the boy flipping through a physics reference book.
Ha Ji Won
Ha Ji Won
“Jungkook, come on, show us how to solve this question.”
Silence fell upon the entire classroom. A few heads turned toward the new student. The teacher smirked and threw the chalk into the case.
Ha Ji Won
Ha Ji Won
“You must know the answers to all these questions since you’re studying physics in mathematics class? Come on, then.”
The air froze. Everyone knew Ha Ji Won despised students not paying attention to her lessons. They had to put up a show even if they were really uninterested! Jungkook had certainly dug a grave for himself by studying physics under Ha Ji Won watch. The new boy rose to his feet.
Jungkook
Jungkook
“Which question is it?” (he only asked because he truly had no idea.)
However, the teacher took it as an open insult. Anger flashed across her face. Yoongi leaned into his seat before revealing a smile.
Min Yoongi
Min Yoongi
“Miss Ha Ji Won, Jungkook is a new transfer student. he didn’t take part in the previous test and doesn’t have a copy of the papers either.”
This only aggravated the teacher’s fury. In her opinion, a student of Busan Second Senior High School should always be a motivated self-learner.
Ha Ji Won
Ha Ji Won
"You knew we’d be going through the previous test papers in this lesson. Why didn’t you ask for a copy and try completing the papers prior to our class? Are you waiting for someone to deliver everything to you? You might as well give up learning with that attitude!”
Another eerie silence. Anyone would be utterly embarrassed to be reprimanded in public like this… Yoongi coughed drily before handing over his paper.
Min Yoongi
Min Yoongi
“Miss Ha wants you to solve question number 31,” <he whispered.>
There was another row between their seats, but he managed to extend his hand to the new student. Sunghoon looked over his shoulder to glance at Yoongi coldly. It was his test paper that the latter had passed over. Yoongi returned with a meaningful gaze. They should help out the new student! It would not hurt to show him the answers. Jungkook lowered his eyes and noticed the neat handwriting on that test paper. he retrieved her gaze almost immediately before heading toward the front of the class
Min Yoongi
Min Yoongi
(He seemed shocked.) “Hey!”
The answers were written on the paper! he should have looked closely before stepping forward. By then, Jungkook had already picked up a chalk and began solving the question on the blackboard. His hand moved across the blackboard swiftly. The entire classroom was silent as the grave. he solved the first two questions in no time but did not stop there. Yoongi straightened his back in his seat before leaning closer to Sunghoon.
Min Yoongi
Min Yoongi
“Hang on a minute. You didn’t answer the third sub-question, did you?” ( he asked quietly.)
Sunghoon did not reply but gently lifted his chin. For the first time, the distant eyes behind the glasses truly focused on the slender silhouette in front of him.
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He finally stopped writing.) “Miss Ha, I’m done.”
Ha Ji Won features froze for a split second when she looked at the answers scribbled across the blackboard. This question was the highlight of the test paper. Sunghoon was the only student out of the whole senior form to complete the first two sub-questions. Not one among them managed to solve the third sub-question. How did Jungkook do it?! Jong-seo whispered to So-hee.
Jung Jong-seo
Jung Jong-seo
“Soso, he’s just writing nonsense right? I heard the class president didn’t score full marks because of this question. How could she have possibly solved it?”
Although Jung Jong-seo was also in First Class, her results were on the end of the spectrum—especially in mathematics. She only wrote down the formula underneath this particular question on her test. So-hee wished to nod, but she was stuck halfway through deciphering Jungkook solution on the blackboard.
Min Yoongi
Min Yoongi
“Ah, I didn’t expect that this sub-question could be solved this way!” (He was one of the smart ones. He always ranked in the top ten of the form.)
He realized Jungkook was a creative thinker from his simple yet precise solution to the question. Someone not highly sensitive with numbers would probably require a long time to actually understand the solution. Upon hearing that, So-hee swallowed the words down her throat.
Ha Ji Won
Ha Ji Won
(She twitched her lips.) “Have you done this question before?”
This clearly meant that Jungkook had indeed solved the question!
Jungkook
Jungkook
“I might have come across ones like this,” (the new student replied.)
The teacher’s features softened.
Ha Ji Won
Ha Ji Won
(She tapped the table.) “One mustn’t be arrogant when it comes to learning. Even if you knew how to solve this question by chance, you shouldn’t have stopped listening to the lesson. Do you think you’d be so lucky again during the final senior exam?”
Undoubtedly, she figured Jungkook was good at mathematics. Otherwise, the latter would not be able to solve an advanced question like this even if he had seen it before. However, the teacher was displeased because Jungkook had disrespected her. Students with a sharp but petty mind like that normally would not end up excelling. Ha ji won had been teaching in Busan Second Senior High School for over a decade. She had always upheld her principles sternly and strictly. Even if Jungkook managed to solve the question, she could still punish the former if she wanted. After releasing the anger built up inside her, Ha Ji won finally softened.
Ha Ji Won
Ha Ji Won
“Return to your seat and make ten handwritten copies of the test paper.”
Jungkook did not budge. he lifted his head to look nonchalantly at Ha JiWon.
Jungkook
Jungkook
“Miss Ha, you can punish me, but on what grounds?”
Ha Ji Won was stunned. She certainly did not expect to be talked back.
Ha Ji Won
Ha Ji Won
(She scoffed out of fury.) “You’re the one who didn’t pay attention in class. Do you think you’re in the position to bargain with me?”
Jungkook
Jungkook
(To this, He replied flatly) “I didn’t interrupt the lesson and I managed to solve the question you asked me, right?”
His actions did not breach any school rule. Therefore, he would not accept the punishment. A dead silence fell upon the room. Rowoon and the other students looked at Jungkook. They thought he must have lost his mind. Was he really challenging the teacher?! Bam!
Ha Ji Won
Ha Ji Won
(She slapped the table before pointing at the door. Her voice was low and stern.) “Go stand outside of the classroom! Besides, since you’re too smart for me, don’t ever attend my class again!”
She thought Jungkook would finally give in at this point. Unexpectedly, the boy only looked at her quietly for a brief moment before nodding calmly.
Jungkook
Jungkook
“Sure.”
Then, Jungkook turned around and walked out of the room, not forgetting to close the door behind him.
This incident ended way out of everyone’s expectations. Frustration rocked through Ha Ji Won as she stared at the closed door. What kind of student was that?!
Ha Ji Won
Ha Ji Won
“Let’s continue!” (She was curious to see how stubborn that boy could be!)
Jung Jong-seo
Jung Jong-seo
(She took pleasure in her classmate’s misfortune.) “he certainly deserves that for being arrogant!”
At this point, So-hee finally understood the solution written across the blackboard. She looked out the window silently for a few seconds. Jungkook academic performance was supposed to be average to poor. Students of that level would normally give up trying to solve this question. Why did he know how to answer it?
This particular block of building was meant for senior students. News spread quickly across the entire form like wildfire. Soon, news of Jungkook from First Class being kicked out of mathematics class became common knowledge among the senior students. Numerous students from other classes gathered along the corridor to look at the slender silhouette standing outside.
student
student
“Ha, this transfer student is certainly bold enough to not pay attention during the head teacher’s lesson.”
student
student
“I don’t think that’s what he did? I heard he’s being punished for revising physics in his mathematics lesson.”
student
student
“You don’t know anything. The head teacher asked her to solve a question, the one that no one in the entire senior form could answer, and she did it! It could’ve ended well when the head teacher instructed him to make ten handwritten copies of that test paper. But he refused! How could the head teacher not be upset?”
Student
Student
“No way! he knew the solution to that question? I heard even Sunghoon couldn’t solve it.”
student
student
“She might have come across something similar in the past, but that’s not important. The highlight is that the head teacher announced that Jungkook is banned from her lessons from now on!”
The students had fun in the heated discussion. Numerous comments and remarks entered Jungkook ears. he leaned against the pole casually, looking nonchalant about it all. Ha Ji Won had never liked him in his past life. She had constantly picked faults with him in the classroom over stupid reasons. Jungkook thought they could start afresh in this life and stay out of each other’s way, but unfortunately, Ha Ji Won did not seem to agree. Indeed, some people, or some things, would never change in a million years. This might not be so bad after all.
Song Kang
Song Kang
Jungkook?
Song Kang hurried over right away. He heard about this news as soon as he arrived at school. The sun felt bright and warm during fall. However, the young boy who was standing there casually always seemed to be keeping a big secret. he stood there quietly with him head slightly lowered. Unmistakable loneliness and indifference exuded from her. It was as if all the liveliness around was none of his business.
Jungkook
Jungkook
(He turned to the source of that voice.) “Sir Song?”
Song Kang
Song Kang
(He gestured to him to come forward.) “Come over with me.”
Dean of Students’ office. Jungkook had shown up here three times in two days. Both Sun Namkoong and Ha ji won were already inside. The atmosphere was tense. Song Kang did not seem to notice.
Song Kang
Song Kang
“Look, Dean Sun, I’ve brought Jungkook over,” ( he announced with a smile.)
Sun Namkoong
Sun Namkoong
(He was at a loss of what to do.) “Miss Ha this incident with Jungkook is not really that significant…”
Ha Ji Won
Ha Ji Won
(She raised her voice.) “Dean Sun, what do you mean? What if other students follow in her footsteps?”
Song Kang
Song Kang
(He Replied before Sun Namkoong had the chance to speak.) “Hey, Miss Ha, it’s really not that bad. To be frank, Jungkook performed well and he didn’t interrupt your lesson, right? This child just loves physics and there’s nothing wrong with that.”
Ha Ji Won
Ha Ji Won
“You...” ( A flurry of emotions chased across her features)
Song Kang
Song Kang
(He coughed drily.) “Besides, I’ve planned for Jungkook to participate in the National Physics Competition. he’s studying extra diligently because the competition is approaching. I forgot to mention this before, but now you can see that his behavior is understandable.”
All the other three in the room turned to look at him differently.
Ha Ji Won
Ha Ji Won
(She scoffed.) “A student participating in the National Physics Competition revising with One Thousand Best High School Physics Questions? Sir Song, your standard is pretty low.”
Song Kang
Song Kang
(He features tensed up before he looked at Jungkook in disbelief.) “That’s the book you’re revising with?!”
How bored was this boy?!
Jungkook
Jungkook
“I’m laying the foundation,” ( replied coldly.)
