Chapter 57 - 57 I Don't Want to Be Proud, But My Strength Forces Me To Be
57 I Don’t Want to Be Proud, But My Strength Forces Me To Be
Two students gave the same standard answer. Teacher Zhang was so envious that he went crazy, feeling like a cat was scratching his heart.
He walked to Wen Ji’s side to hopefully gain some balance in his heart.
This student who was first in Class Two and sixth in the cohort shouldn’t be too bad at answering questions, right?
It was fine if he did not look, but he was shocked when he saw it. Why were there only a few answers that were the same as Luo Feng on half of Wen Ji’s paper? Wasn’t this wrong?
Teacher Zhang did not believe it. He simply crossed his arms and calculated in his heart.
Indeed, Wen Ji had answered wrongly!
Teacher Zhang was so angry that smoke was coming out of his mouth. One of his feet trembled uneasily.
Even a vegetable could not remain calm with a teacher standing at the side shaking his legs. Wen Ji raised his head with a bitter expression, as if he had seen an angry King Kong. He was so frightened that his forehead was covered in sweat.
He did not know what crime he had committed to let Teacher Zhang supervise his paper alone. Wen Ji thought that he did the question wrongly and shakily blacked out the answer beside what he wrote.
“That’s the right one! Why did you black it out?!” Teacher Zhang roared in his heart, wishing he could do the papers himself.
He widened his eyes and kept signaling with his eyes for Wen Ji to recalculate and check properly. Wen Ji also raised his head, as if asking Teacher Zhang if this was the case. In the end, he met the teacher’s wide eyes and almost peed his pants.
Teacher Zhang closed his eyes and pinched his glabella. He could not look anymore. If he did, his lifespan would be shortened.
After taking a few steps back, he realized that Luo Feng was already in a daze with his legs crossed.
“You’re done so quickly.” Teacher Zhang glanced at the clock on the wall.
It had only been an hour since the exam started! Luo Feng was already done?!
Teacher Zhang stopped beside him and tapped his fingers on the table, indicating for Luo Feng to check carefully and not look around to disturb the order of the examination hall.
Luo Feng pulled up the paper expressionlessly. On it was a neat list of draft solutions. He had written each solution twice, proving that Luo Feng had checked it twice.
Teacher Zhang knew that Luo Feng’s results were very good, but he did not expect them to be that good! He could not do it at Luo Feng’s speed even if he were to answer the questions himself!
Such a good student was simply the most eye-catching badge of an outstanding teacher! He would be able to do whatever he wanted in school in five years to be lucky enough to teach such a good student!
Teacher Zhang drooled with envy at the thought that Luo Feng was in Teacher Yu’s class.
“Yes, don’t look around,” Teacher Zhang reminded Luo Feng.
His words were really against his will. Luo Feng was just a walking answer book. There was no need to do anything to jeopardize that.
He began to patrol with mixed feelings and walked to another corner of the classroom. The other invigilator guarding the back door was also bored and stared at the back of the students’ heads in a daze.
Teacher Zhang passed by him coincidentally. The invigilator stopped him and whispered, “Teacher Zhang, what is Luo Feng doing? Why is he always twisting back?”
Teacher Zhang looked up.
As expected, Luo Feng, who was sitting in the first row, turned his body sideways and looked at Ai Tingya, who was in the second row, in an awkward posture.
Teacher Zhang quickly walked over and asked in a low voice, “What are you doing?”
Luo Feng pointed at Ai Tingya confidently and said, “I’m looking at her.”
Ai Tingya, who was engrossed in her questions, blushed and the corners of her mouth curled up uncontrollably.
Teacher Zhang’s scalp went numb from their lovey-dovey display. Didn’t they say that everyone only had one brain? How could an outstanding star student’s brain be stained with the vice of being in love?
“Turn around and don’t affect the other students.” Teacher Zhang looked at Ai Tingya meaningfully.
Then, he saw Ai Tingya complete the test paper and put down her pen. She supported her chin with both hands and looked at Luo Feng affectionately.
“…” Teacher Zhang was speechless, feeling like he was a busybody.
Why did he have to worry about a young couple and be fed dog food?
“I really can’t stand the two of you.” Teacher Zhang was embarrassed, but he was shouting unwillingly in his heart.
They were actually able to firmly rank first or second with their examination attitudes. Teacher Yu’s discipline of the two of them was too loose. Teacher Zhang felt that if Luo Feng and the other two were in his class, he would definitely pull them back.
Their results would definitely improve if they focused all their attention on their studies.
Unfortunately, he could only be envious!
…
The two-day examination ended quickly and the results of the Third High School came out very quickly.
When the results of this exam were out, all the teachers who had seen the results and rankings clicked their tongues in wonder. They could not hide their envy for Teacher Yu.
Teacher Yu held the report card and sat in her seat, sighing.
Her sigh was too loud. The other teachers asked curiously, “Teacher Yu, your class did very well this time. Why do you always sigh?”
Teacher Yu clenched her fists. “I hate that this isn’t the college entrance examination.”
The other teachers, including Teacher Zhang, who was not far away, pricked up their ears to listen to her thinking.
Teacher Yu said regretfully, “Look at Luo Feng’s full marks. Ai Tingya’s essay only had a few points deducted. One of them is first, and the other is second. If this is the college entrance examination results, they will definitely be the top scorers.”
“Also, the other students in our class have also improved greatly. 20 from my class have entered the top 50 of the cohort, accounting for half of them!”
“Look here. The worst student in our class is ranked 124th in the entire school. I’ll wake up laughing in my dreams if this is their college entrance examination results!”
The other teachers shrunk their necks and thought to themselves, ‘Aren’t you asking for too much?’
The results of Class One were already unprecedented in their school! It was too luxurious no matter how one looked at it!
The teachers smiled helplessly and dispersed, lest they be angered to death by Teacher Yu’s smugness.
Teacher Yu was overjoyed. She felt that she had not said enough and needed to focus on hitting Teacher Zhang.
She took the report card and went to Teacher Zhang’s side. She said in slight distress, “Teacher Zhang, I think your class’s performance this time is also stable. The average score is about the same as the first examination.”
“Teach me how to stabilize the students’ results. I’m really afraid that they’ll become proud.”
Teacher Zhang gritted his teeth and forced a smile. “The students know their limits. Don’t worry too much. Just trust them.”
He kept roaring in his heart. You’re the proudest teacher in the entire school. Don’t show off in front of me!
Teacher Zhang laughed and said, “I won’t chat with you anymore. The students are still waiting for me to announce the results.”
Teacher Yu stopped him. “You’re leaving so soon? I wanted to discuss the average score with you. Teacher Zhang, when are you free?”
“I’m not free.” Teacher Zhang bypassed her and jogged out of the office.
In the past, he had always compared his average score with Teacher Yu. Staying here would only invite humiliation now that he could not compare to her!
Teacher Yu shook the report card regretfully. “That’s true. I’ll go take a look at my hardworking students too. Teacher Zhang, wait for me. Let’s go together.”
