Growth and Transformation

When the head teacher came back from the principal's office, he only heard the noise of noisy fighting in the classroom.

Suddenly the teachers felt that this period of joy was running out and the countdown would soon begin.

The head teacher Dong Liang walked into the classroom with the students' report cards. It was rare that the students all kept quiet.

Dong Liang said, "Oh my! How come the class spirit is being highlighted at this time? They seem to have quite a good rapport."

A shameless student said, "Teacher Dong, winter vacation is almost here, shouldn't you be more energetic?"

Dong Liang said, "I can see that you're not waiting for your report cards, but for the holidays."

Shi Nannan also joined in the fun and said, "Teacher, please stop talking nonsense. It's not easy for us to come here. Please hand out the report cards as soon as possible so that we can go home for the New Year."

Dong Liang glared at him and said, "Liu Yang, and Shi Nannan, you two are the most noisy in this class. You have absolutely no respect for yourselves."

Zhou Xiang echoed Dong Liang's words and said, "You're right, Teacher Dong. Even during the holidays, we should still abide by the school's rules and regulations. You must severely criticize Shi Nannan."

Zhou Xiang and Shi Nannan have always disliked each other. Fights between girls are no less frequent than those between boys, and sometimes even more intense. After all, those who can kill with their eyes are not good people.

Shi Nannan counterattacked: "Zhou Xiang, why are you everywhere? No one thinks you are dumb if you don't speak."

"Also, which rule did I break? I remember one of them being about not allowing students to wear heavy makeup or weird hair in school. Why don't you look in the mirror and see what a horrible thing you look like?"

Zhou Xiang has a fierce look in his eyes, and if he can't win, he will use his sharp eyes to shoot at the enemy.

Zhou Xiang said: "Shi Nannan, what do you know? This is called fashion."

"You're like a tomboy, hanging out with Shen... boys all day. I can hardly tell whether you're a man or a woman."

Shi Nannan hates people talking about her appearance the most, especially those who question her gender.

She is a little cool, but she is not bothering others.

Shi Nannan was so angry that she wanted to fight back, but it was no longer her turn because there was someone behind her.

Chen Xing said, "Zhou Xiang, what qualifications do you have to criticize Nan Nan? You judge people by their appearance and act pretentiously. Besides your face, what other advantages do you have?"

Shen Xuyang followed up with, "Hey! Are you blind? Not only do you have no brains, but your eyes are also not working. It's really pathetic."

Zhou Xiang was very angry, but Shi Nannan was very happy.

In the past, she always rushed to the front. No matter whether she could win or not, Shi Nannan never abandoned her partners, and would never let her friends suffer any injustice.

But this time she experienced the feeling of being praised by her friends, and it turned out to be quite enjoyable.

Shi Nannan glanced at Shen Xuyang, and he turned his face away. Was he embarrassed?

It was the first time that Shi Nannan enjoyed the feeling of being protected by Chen Xing.

Chen Xing has really changed, and is slowly becoming stronger and braver.

In the past, when Chen Xing heard unpleasant things about her, she would always avoid them and would not want to face them, and would even hide in a corner where no one was around and cry secretly.

But now Chen Xing will not run away. Instead, he will face up to them and fight back against those harsh words.

I can even help Shi Nannan share the burden.

Chen Xing smiles more often and becomes more cheerful, all thanks to them.

Dong Liang caused a quarrel just after he came in. He sighed helplessly. This class is really full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. They are all young ladies and gentlemen who are not easy to mess with.

Dong Liang said, "Well, we're all classmates. We've had a friendship for three years. Even if we can't be friends, what's the deep hatred?"

"I think you guys are just bored. Don't you think you have enough homework for the winter break? I'll have the teachers assign more so you can study hard for the college entrance exam next semester."

After Dong Liang said this, the whole class united in resistance in an instant.

"Teacher Dong, please don't. You know that next semester will be even harder. Just give us a good life."

Dong Liang just said that. Although this class is not a key class and there are no top students, every student here has his or her own strengths.

No matter how much homework he assigns, it will be useless if the students themselves do not have self-awareness and self-discipline.

After all, he went through the same thing. Which student would like to do homework?

Dong Liang said, "Since you all don't want to do your homework, then when school starts, Liu Yang, Shi Nannan, and Zhou Xiang will each submit a 1,000-word self-criticism."

"You guys are usually the only ones chattering in class. It's time to teach you a lesson."

"Next semester will be the last semester, and I don't want to see a similar situation again."

Although the three were very reluctant to accept such punishment, they did it for the sake of protecting the class.

Shi Nannan and Liu Yang have often disrupted class order and should write a self-criticism.

There were also several times when Zhou Xiang wore makeup to school and focused all her attention on dyeing her hair and doing her nails. That is absolutely not allowed and she must be punished.

This was not the first time Shi Nannan had written a self-criticism, and writing a thousand words was a piece of cake for her.

Dong Liang returned to the point and said, "The transcripts for this final exam are out. I'll have the class monitor distribute them to everyone later."

"Regarding this year's results, I've said this many times before the exam. The difficulty of the questions this time is closest to the college entrance exam. I hope you'll have a clearer idea of ​​what to expect after reading your report card, and that you'll communicate more with your parents about how to study for next semester."

Dong Liang handed the report card in his hand to the class monitor, who distributed it to each student according to their names.

Some students look satisfied when they see their transcripts, some are surprised, and of course some are disappointed. Everyone has a different mindset.

It was not until the class monitor saw Chen Xing's name and accidentally noticed Chen Xing's report card that he was shocked.

The class monitor said, "Chen Xing, you did quite well on the test this time. You're almost in the top 50 in your grade."

In the past, Chen Xing was a little-known figure in the class, and his grades were stable, neither rising nor falling. Every time his grades dropped, no one cared. On the contrary, whenever he scored too high on an exam, it would be attributed to Chen Yue.

Chen Xing was used to it. After all, her sister was excellent in everyone's eyes, and she was just her background.

Every time Chen Xing gets a reward for her hard work, it always has traces of Chen Yue. She used to be sad and unwilling, but now she no longer cares what others say and just thinks of it as jealousy.

Chen Xing got his report card and looked at the grades for each subject. Except for math which he just barely passed, he was quite satisfied with every other subject.

Shi Nannan said, "Xingxing, you are really amazing. You are getting better and better each time. I believe you will be able to get into Jinghua University."

Shi Nannan was truly happy for Chen Xing. No one knew better than her how hard Chen Xing had worked this semester.

Zhou Xiang's eyes turned red when she heard this and she said, "Tsk! Don't be so proud. Isn't Chen Xing just relying on having a top student sister? How could she get such high grades without her sister's help?"

"Besides, how can the school's final exams be compared to the college entrance examination? You still want to apply to Jinghua University, but you don't even know if you have the talent."

Shi Nannan couldn't help but glare at him when she heard this. "Zhou Xiang, I didn't want to argue with you in the first place. You said so, so forget it. Why did you bring up the stars?"

"You'd better look in the mirror and take a look at your face. It's not only extremely ugly, but also has two words written on it."

Zhou Xiang cares about her face the most. No matter whether it is real or not, she wants to keep the mirror in her hand all the time.

Zhou Xiang looked at herself in the mirror and was still as beautiful as before.

Zhou Xiang said, "Shi Nannan, where are the words? Stop talking nonsense."

Shi Nannan pointed at Zhou Xiang's cheeks and said, "You're truly blind. Can't you see the word jealousy written all over your face? I don't know what you have eyes for. They're completely unnecessary."

Zhou Xiang was furious. "You said I was jealous of Chen Xing. Why should I be jealous of her? My family is richer than hers, I'm prettier than her, and I can sing and dance. How can she compare to me?"

Shi Nannan was about to retort, but was stopped by Chen Xing.

Chen Xing was completely focused on his transcript, which was why he tolerated Zhou Xiang's repeated insults.

Chen Xing suddenly raised his eyes, looked at Zhou Xiang with a sharp gaze and said, "You are both right and wrong."

Shi Nannan thought Chen Xing felt inferior because of her family background and wanted to comfort her, "Xingxing, don't listen to her nonsense..."

Chen Xing said: "Nannan, I'm fine, don't worry."

Chen Xing would not feel inferior because of these things, she never thought that it was her misfortune.

Zhou Xiang asked: "Chen Xing, what do you mean?"

Chen Xing said righteously, "My family background isn't as good as yours, and I'm not pretty. Besides painting, I don't have any other talents to show off, but why should I compete with you?"

"You are simply incomparable to me. I don't want to be like you and become a spoiled girl with only a pretty face. I also don't want to be like you, relying on your family background and appearance to be arrogant and think you are in a superior position."

"Chen Xuyang and Nan Nan are both right. Your eyes are indeed redundant because you can never see how many people are above you. Do you think that those who are stepped on by you will never be able to stand up?"

"Maybe one day you'll find that you're the one being stepped on."

Zhou Xiang was so angry after Chen Xing finished speaking that he couldn't utter a word.

Shi Nannan and Shen Xuyang both looked at Chen Xing with admiration.

Shi Nannan said: "Xingxing, you were so domineering and handsome just now."

Shen Xuyang smiled. Chen Xing was really different from before. It was the first time he looked at someone with such eyes. He never expected that Chen Xing would be more powerful after the transformation.

Chen Xing, who used to only hide behind the crowd, liked to avoid the crowd, felt uncomfortable when people talked about him casually, but did not dare to stand up and refute him, has really grown up.

Shen Xuyang said: "Chen Xing, you are amazing. From now on, I will rely on you and Shi Nannan for protection."

Shi Nannan pinched Shen Xuyang's ear and said, "Do you have any ambition? Shen Xuyang, you are a grown man, over 1.8 meters tall, and you actually want Chen Xing and me to protect you? Do you still have any shame?"

Shen Xuyang cried out in pain as Shi Nannan pulled his ears.
