He had said these words countless times in class, but when he saw Shen Mianmian, he couldn't help but remind her again.
Having a student who consistently ranked at the bottom in academic performance experience an epiphany after half a year of his teaching was an unsurpassed honor for any teacher.
"Mr. Chen, I will work hard."
Shen Mianmian smiled, making a cheering gesture. Chen Jie was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand and mimicked her gesture, seeing Shen Mianmian's genuine smile for the first time since he had started teaching her.
The child used to be quite introverted, always bowing her head in silence. After her grades improved a bit, she took on a mature air one wouldn't expect in someone so young, rarely smiling like a child.
Chen Jie laughed at his own thought; after all, Shen Mianmian was still a child.
"With so many students, why only cheer for Shen Mianmian? Mr. Chen is really biased," Wang Jingjing muttered under her breath from the back of the line.
