After failing the civil service teacher exam and being rejected by an elite school, Lu Chenzhou only wants to keep his job by filling in as a temporary teacher. On his first day, however, the principal dumps Class 27 of Grade 11 on him, the school’s worst-performing class, which is about to be shut down.
The parents are waiting to file complaints, the star teachers are waiting to laugh at him, and all thirty-seven students are convinced they’ve already been given up on.
Then Lu Chenzhou binds himself to the Life Exam System. It doesn’t give him answers. Instead, it turns the toughest obstacle in each student’s life into a question they must answer for themselves.
The first question for Zhou Ye, the class troublemaker: Before ten tonight, say, “I want to keep studying.”
Starting with that question, Lu Chenzhou leads the school’s worst class through monthly exams, competitions, joint exams, education platforms, and national practical contests.
In the end, the thirty-seven people no one thought worth investing in stand on the national championship podium.
Everyone thinks Lu Chenzhou has worked a miracle. Only he knows he has never answered a single question for his students. He simply put the answer sheet they’d had taken away back into their hands.
