Since the end of the school sports meet, the temperature in November had suddenly dropped. The students all put on sweaters. Fortunately, there were air - conditioners in the classroom, so it wasn't that cold. "Lin Jinran, later I asked my parents to look into it. Wei Liang's mother is really seriously ill and is receiving treatment at the city hospital. The attending physician is quite famous locally. My parents then dug deeper into his background but found nothing."
In the early morning, Su Qinian stepped into the classroom with the cold air from outside. As soon as he sat down, he started talking about this, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
"It's okay. That person must not want us to find her. Since Wei Liang was imprisoned, she must have made full preparations. Just as you said, we'll cross the bridge when we come to it. She'll show her true colors one day."
"During this period, we should study hard. We're not afraid of what that girl might do."
Lin Jinran twirled the pen in her hand and said casually.
From the very beginning, she had guessed this possibility.
Now that they hadn't found any results, she wasn't too disappointed.
The bell for the first class rang. It was the English teacher's class. She walked into the classroom with the English tests the students had done last night and suddenly slammed them on the podium.
The classroom shook. Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to make a sound.
"Have I not checked your test papers for too long? You've given me such a big 'surprise' now! Speak up, all of you!"
The English teacher put her hands on her hips, furious. Her eyes seemed to be on fire as she scanned the classroom.
The classroom was extremely quiet. No one dared to speak at this moment.
The English teacher slapped the podium hard and continued scolding, "Have you not recovered from last week's sports meet? It's not just one teacher saying this about you. I heard it clearly in the office."
"Also, when can't you even tell the singular and plural forms of countable nouns? How could you make such a mistake? You're students in Class One! Please pay attention. Did you even bring your 'naizi' before the test?"
Did she mean "bring your brains" before the test?
The English teacher had spoken too fast and carelessly made a slip of the tongue.
Many students in the class lowered their heads, trying hard not to laugh. Some who couldn't hold it in bent down pretending to tie their shoelaces.
Like Tao Wan in the front.
Lin Jinran used a book to cover her face and was laughing so hard that tears were about to come out.
"Naizi"? "Brains"?
Su Qinian didn't react as strongly. He just smiled slightly.
Lin Jinran sighed that Su Qinian had a higher laugh - threshold. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Tao Wan bending down, covering her face, her shoulders shaking with laughter. She was on the verge of bursting out laughing.
This wouldn't do. If she laughed out loud, the English teacher would scold her first.
The English teacher looked down and saw that one - third of the students had ducked under their desks and were out of sight, while the other two - thirds wanted to laugh but didn't dare, holding it in with all their might.
She was stunned for a few seconds. Then, remembering her slip of the tongue, she tried to stay calm and shouted angrily, "Can't you use your brains!"
"Can't you use your 'naizi'..."
A soft voice came from the back.
Another one - third of the students couldn't help but hide under their desks, covering their mouths and laughing out loud.
Lin Jinran completely joined them. Tears were streaming down her face from laughter. She squatted beside Su Qinian, tugged at his trouser leg, and asked between fits of laughter, her voice distorted.
"Y - y - you, don't you think it's funny? Hahaha..."
Su Qinian tapped her forehead with his pen and said helplessly, "The English teacher will be furious. You have such a low laugh - threshold. This won't do."
Lin Jinran was laughing so hard that she couldn't speak. She shook her head and waved her hand, not knowing what she was trying to express.
"You're just burying your head in the sand." Su Qinian curled his lips into a faint smile.
"I - I don't know who is so bold." Lin Jinran laughed intermittently, out of breath.
"Lu Youchuan, have you grown bold?"
A powerful roar came from the podium.
It was actually Lu Youchuan.
Well, he was naturally fearless, and his grades were still passable.
"No!" Lu Youchuan immediately stood up and replied bravely.
Lin Jinran silently lit a virtual candle in Lu Youchuan's direction, wishing him good luck.
"Now, immediately, go and stand at the door. You're not allowed to leave until the bell rings for the end of class!" The English teacher was really angry.
Lu Youchuan didn't hesitate at all. As soon as the words were out, he immediately walked to the front door of the classroom and stood there.
"He's so bold today. I've never seen him like this before," Lin Jinran, who was squatting under the desk, sighed. "Brave Lu is not afraid of difficulties."
"Okay, all of you sit up straight quickly. We still have class later. I'll let you off today. Hurry up. We still have class!" The English teacher shouted again.
Lin Jinran quickly sat up straight and flipped to the page the teacher was going to teach.
After the English class ended and the English teacher left, Lu Youchuan came back in. Su Qinian called him over, "Lu Youchuan, what's wrong with you today? You're so bold."
Lin Jinran immediately turned her head and watched him with interest, like someone watching a show.
She was also very curious about what had happened to Lu Youchuan in the English class.
"I must have had a mental block," Lu Youchuan said miserably. "I didn't sleep well today, so my brain wasn't working properly."
Pfft...
Lin Jinran laughed again.
"Lin Jinran, the class teacher is looking for you now!" A classmate who came in from outside shouted loudly.
Huh? Lin Jinran blinked. She hadn't had enough of laughing yet. Why did the class teacher suddenly want to see her?
She recalled her performance during this period. There were basically no problems. Then why did the class teacher want to see her?
Filled with uneasiness, Lin Jinran came to the office. She knocked on the door before going in.
"Lin Jinran, you're here. Come on, come on," Zhou Ping said in a cheerful tone. It didn't seem like he was going to scold her.
That was okay. Lin Jinran let out a sigh of relief, put on a smile, walked over, and said, "Good morning, teacher."
She turned her head and saw another female teacher. She also said, "Good morning, teacher."
Zhou Ping introduced, "This teacher is Teacher Li. You can call her Teacher Li."
"Hello, Teacher Li. My name is Lin Jinran," Lin Jinran said obediently.
"Our school holds a New Year's Eve party every year before the New Year's Day holiday. All three grades will participate. Teacher Li here is the person in charge of this event. She's asked you here because she has something to talk to you about," Zhou Ping explained on the side.
So what did they want her for? And what did it have to do with the New Year's Eve party?
Lin Jinran looked at Teacher Li doubtfully, waiting for her to speak.
Teacher Li smiled kindly and explained softly, "Every year, the New Year's Eve party needs a male host and a female host. I've already decided on the male host. It's Song Langqing from Senior One. As for the female host, I wonder if you, Lin Jinran, would be willing to take the job."
