83 Special teacher and classes
When Han Nanxian informed her about the special teacher he didn’t tell her about the method of teaching of the very teacher. Currently, An Xiulan was in a class with children who were a little too young. Or she should say she was attending the class with nursery kids.
An Xiulan had an urge to cry when the teacher said that it was better to start from the beginning in her class. Thus, today she was made to start with the Chinese letters. It wasn’t that difficult for her when she did everything from the beginning.
When An Qinyan saw a bit of improvement in her daughter, she talked with the teacher and arranged a one and half hour class for An Xiulan. Now An Xiulan would be having a class from five in the morning until six-thirty. Thankfully, the teacher could come to her home to teach her.
Since she had to reach school by seven-thirty in the morning, she was left with an hour to get ready for school, have breakfast and reach school.
Everyone knew that the next three weeks were going to be very hectic and stressful for her so they put a great deal of thought into her diet. She was given strict instructions to eat her lunch box and not the canteen food. Since they knew that she loved sharing her food, they packed a lot of food for her to share.
After attending classes, an hour’s break from school was enough for her to relax. The classes ended at five in the evening and after two more hours of rest, she would have tutoring classes with Han Nanxian in a private library which wasn’t on the school campus.
It would be late when she would reach home. Although she spent most of the time away from her home, her mother had made all the arrangements for her meals. She would have a small portion of food every now and then.
A similar arrangement ran for an entire week and today, she had to appear for her first monthly test while her classmates were supposed to appear for monthly tests next week. It was because she had appeared for the tests that she had missed last month.
“All the best, “An Qinyan whispered as she hugged her daughter. “Don’t stress too much. Everything will be fine.”
After that, she waved goodbye to her daughter who then entered the school gate.
Although it was An Xiulan’s exam, it was her mother who was more anxious. Since she knew that she wouldn’t be able to work as her attention would be on her daughter’s exam. Therefore, she parked her car outside the school gate and waited until two hours to be over.
Since An Xiulan was a transfer student and it wasn’t easy for someone to write two months’ tests in two weeks, she was given permission to write one subject exam in one day and after that, she could go home to prepare for the rest of the exams and the second monthly text.
When An Qinyan thought her daughter just be suffering inside the examination hall where she was a single student, she was in actuality killing it.
Yes, killing the paper setter in her heart.
She had recalled all the answers to the questions that Han Nanxian had given her but now that she saw the question she felt as if the question paper setter had added redundant words in question.
Like she had remembered a question where it was asked it was asked, ‘What is the quick source of glucose?’ The answer was honey. But now the dumb teacher was asking here, ‘Which of the following is not the quick source of glucose?’
What was wrong with these teachers? Why couldn’t they be decisive?
If teachers are this indecisive then what would happen to students like her?
It would have been fine if he had only done the same thing to only one question but the entire question paper was set up wrongly.
She heaved out a sigh and looked at the ceiling. ‘Oh Buddha, give my teachers a bit of sense.’
She was so vexed by the attitude of the paper setter that she chanted god’s name in her heart and every option where the last letter of God’s name would end, she would mark it as an answer.
After she marked all the answers, she joined her hands in a prayer position, closed her eyes and said in her heart, ‘Oh, Lord of Lord, I ask for no silk, no diamond, even no palace. All I ask thy for the last rank. Kindly secure me a permanent position at Jingyuan high. Regards, An Xiulan.’ ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
While she was making prayers, the inviligator was asleep behind his dark glasses. He was of the view that the girl wouldn’t be able to cheat as she was alone in the huge class.
Although her exam finished a long time ago, she was still sitting on her spot, catching up with the sleep that she couldn’t due to exam stress. And it was only now that she understood why top students say that two hours were not enough for an exam, how cool would be it if the exam was half an hour longer. At least, she would have caught up with her sleep if not anything else.
Never mind, she handed over her sheet and called her mother because she was supposed to inform the latter the first after she exited the examination centre.
“How was your first exam?” An Qinyan asked as she passed her daughter some crackers to fill her stomach.
“It was tough, “said An Xiulan as she recalled the question paper once again.
“Do you want to go somewhere before going home?” An Qinyan asked.
An Xiulan shook her head. It was better to go home and sleep for a half before she had to attend other tuition classes.
While she was not supposed to go to her class until the second monthly test, a major episode had taken place inside Class Ten K.
Shen Yue a student of Class Ten A was transferred to Class Ten K because of bad behaviour or that was what students believed.
“Why is this fatty transferred to our class?” Ye Jun grumbled. “We might be bad students but we are not criminals.”
“She pushed a student of class Ten B to death. She deserves to die. Why is she in our class?” Someone else said bitterly.
Shen Yue, who had her eyes fixated on her shoes, never looked up even for a second. Even if there were tears in her swollen and dark eyes, she never tried to look at anyone. After the teacher made the introduction, she was sent to an empty desk where no one was willing to even look at her, much less than talk to her.
While An Xiulan was busy with her monthly tests and all other sorts of classes, Shen Yue was living a life worse than anyone. In the entire class, no one would talk to her. They wouldn’t bother to even look in her direction, it was as if she was a jinx.
When every student would be enjoying their break with their friends, she would be sitting alone at her desk. Her father had stopped her pocket money ever since she was accused of pushing her stepsister to death. Since no one bothered to pack her a lunch box, she had to stay hungry all day.
Her mother had left living her alone in the family of wolves only with a letter saying to fetch for her as the alter wasn’t capable of that. Her stepmother and stepsister were hoping for her to die. The entire school believed that she had tried to kill her stepsister.
She had stopped telling everyone the truth because no one was willing to believe her words. It was fine with her if all these people wanted was to believe those rumours and false posts trending on the school forum.
Shen Yue looked out of the school window, where the glass was reflecting her haggard face and laughed bitterly.
Could her story be any more cliche?
The monthly tests were arriving and she had no desire to return to Class Ten A. Since Zhou Liling finally fulfilled her dream of entering Class A, she hoped that she would stay there for a long. Only then she would know how hard it was to stay in Class A where nobody knew when their position would be snatched.
Staying in Class Ten A was like walking on minefields, nobody knew when they would put their place in the wrong place and boom.
Game over.
It was time for her dear stepsister to savour the taste of Class Ten A that she pain strikingly got by throwing her out of the class by using such unscrupulous and underhanded means.
She knew why Zhou Liling did all these things– for the contest of Campus Belle that would take place a week after the result of monthly tests.
