Dilemma about Chinese

So I have a 99.4% in Chinese II H right about now…pretty good right? Well, I have a Chinese last name, so wouldn’t colleges assume that I already know Chinese, and I’m just taking this class for an easy grade? I have never had any instruction in Chinese before middle school Chinese, so…

Obviously I don’t want to drop my grade a few points on purpose, but I don’t really see how a 100 (99.5%+) would be beneficial in any way…

not to brag or anything but I’ll probably have 98%+'s in both Chinese III and IV honors since there are REALLY stupid people taking Chinese and the tests/quizzes are STUPIDLY EASY.

Obviously I can’t avoid this since this class will show up on my transcript, but should I stick to Chinese all four years or what?
