" My dear students, now that it's only 100 days away from your entrance examination, your teacher is very worried looking at the recent scores of the monthly test…"
A man in his 40's with a shiny bald head and bear pot belly stood near the podium with a worried look on his face.
Teacher Yan, who teaches mathematics, is also the class teacher of this class.
Among many teachers, teacher Yan could be called as an out of stream teacher.
His methods are different and he is very funny contrary to other dignified and serious teachers.
There is no one in the class who seems to have any dislike for him, even the scumbags.
Xie Yu, who is a proper scumbag, also has a little more affection for this teacher.
Although until a few days ago, she had mostly ignored his kind advice and indulged in skipping classes, she has at least started making up for her studies.
She faintly detest her previous behaviours of not concentrating on her studies.
Studying for even an hour or two a day in the past would have at least helped her a lot in her current situation.
Sighing in her heart, she decided to not think about this matter more.
She looked up and found that teacher Yan had almost completed his small lecture.
Teacher Yan stood on the podium and his narrow eyes glanced at every student present in the class and faintly stopped at the direction of Xie Yu.
" Classmate Xie, please come to my office after the classes."
Xie Yu, who was named, replied " Yes teacher Yan.."
She could guess why teacher Yan had been calling her after the class.
It's not the first time she had been invited to the teacher's office.
After the class was over, Xie Yu unhurriedly walked towards the teacher's office.
Most of the students from class had left for the cafeteria and naturally no one noticed the figure of Lu Mian sneakily looking at the direction of Xie Yu's departure.
Xie Yu stood for a few seconds before walking into the office, teacher Yan's desk was in the corner and there was a steaming cup of tea on the table.
Teacher Yan greeted her with a smile as usual before speaking gently " Classmate Xie is not skipping the class nowadays."
Xie Yu coughed unnaturally, " I am listening to the classes and studying properly."
Getting a straightforward answer, teacher Yan wasn't surprised.
He had known this girl for the last two years and he is quite familiar with her straightforward attitude as he had kindly asked her to come to the office for small talks many times.
Her grade had always been below average but not to the point of being at the bottom.
Unlike other girls in his class, Xie Yu has a completely different temperament.
She likes to skip classes, bunk school, give no face to teachers and many more.
Even those little naughty boys in his class are not as rebellious as her.
Those boys are dandy but they have a faint fear in their heart when it comes to major issues related to their study life.
But Xie Yu, unlike other high school students, had always been a bit indifferent.
Teacher Yan had been in this teaching job for years and such a student, he had seen for the first time in his career.
He was quite confused how to handle such a unique student but after several confrontations with her, he finally understood that he is incapable of dealing with her.
In the end, he would call her twice or thrice a month and have a talk with her.
Even if he found out that he couldn't influence her to the right path, he still didn't want to give up.
Nowadays when he sees this little troublemaker, opening books and studying hard, he can't help but be happy in his heart.
Whether it was his small talk that motivated her or other reasons that influenced her, he only hopes that she could really do well in her exams.
There was a happy smile on his face as he clapped his hand " If student Xie has any problems, you could come to me."
Xie Yu looked at the kind smile on teacher Yan's face and nodded in response.
Although she feels that she has many doubts that she would like to ask him, she restrains her desire to drag teacher Yan for extra classes.
She had heard that teacher Yan's mother had been admitted to hospital and she is a cancer patient.
These days after school, teacher Yan would go to hospital to take care of his mother.
Beneath the kind and encouraging face she could see the looming tiredness.
Coming out of the office, she walked towards the cafeteria and bought a small bun before returning back to her class room.
There were only a few classmates who were busy chatting with each other.
She had transferred to this school two years ago and because of her own distinctive nature, naturally she made no friends.
Biting the bun, her long legs wrapped in grey coloured pants stretched outward.
She had been feeling very tired recently.
Maybe she should take a walk outside in the evening.
Just as she was thinking about where to visit in the evening, the bell rang and the students started returning to the classes.
The next class was English and the monitor came to collect homeworks.
Chen Yan picked up the homework that Shen Yu submitted before asking " Classmate Xie..your English homework?"
Xie Yu, who forgot about the English homework in the sea of mathematical equations, replied without any fear " Forgot."
Chen Yan wasn't expecting Xie Yu to submit the homework, but as a monitor she has to perform her duties.
So she advised kindly as usual " Classmate Xie must not forget next time."
Chen Yan got the familiar response and she walked toward the other side without changing face.
Shen Yu, who was sitting beside her, couldn't help but say, " Monitor really doesn't change her face when speaking with people."
Xie Yu sitting beside him retorted " Unlike you, whose expression is all over his face."
Shen Yu looked at her with some doubts " But obviously they all call me ' school grass' with an expressionless face!! "
" Are you quite proud of this weird title?" Xie Yu feels that most of the people in this school should be blind.
Where is this person without any expression!!
Shen Yu was about to fight back when a female cry almost broke his ears.
He along with Xie Yu looked at the direction of the noise and saw Lu Mian crying like pear blossoms.
Few girls surrounded her trying to calm her down and others sat at their seats looking at the scene as if eating melons.
A slightly chubby girl who was consoling Lu Mian suddenly turned around and said " Mian mian's necklace is stolen.."
