Chapter 60 Apology

After a pause, he continued, "Not only now, but in the future I will also get better and better scores and be better than them all."

Seeing his ambitious face, Ji Yuanyuan felt relieved.

She was really afraid that Ji Ziang's weak heart could not bear this incident and he would never recover from it.

It seems that she underestimated her second brother. Perhaps this time Ji Ziang could be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

The two of them slowly walked to the door of Ji Ziang's class. Ji Yuanyuan patted Ji Ziang on the shoulder and said, "Okay, go to class. Don't be afraid."

Having said that, Ji Yuanyuan was about to leave.

Ji Ziang suddenly said, "Don't tell mom and big brother about what happened today, understand?"

Ji Yuanyuan turned her head, somewhat surprised.

Ji Ziang scratched his head: "Otherwise, they will be worried."

After saying that, he walked into the classroom somewhat embarrassedly.

Ji Yuanyuan looked at Ji Ziang's back and sighed with great relief.

Ji Ziang is becoming more and more sensible now, that’s great.

This incident became a little secret between Ji Yuanyuan and Ji Ziang. After returning home at noon, the two said nothing.

In order to prove himself, Ji Ziang even took advantage of his lunch break and pestered Ji Zixuan to prepare special meals for him.

His elder brother is the top student in the grade. With his guidance, he will definitely become stronger and stronger, Ji Ziang thought with some pride.

Although Ji Zixuan didn't understand what was wrong with Ji Ziang recently, after seeing that his younger brother was indeed studying hard, he also started to teach him seriously.

In the afternoon, Ji Ziang's teacher handed out all the test papers and planned for Ji Ziang to finish the test the next morning.

When he returned home in the evening, Ji Ziang rushed to the desk in the bedroom and sat down for the first time.

"Brother, come here quickly. I don't know how to do this question. Can you teach me?" He took out the textbook from his schoolbag and called Ji Zixuan who was going to wash his hands.

Li Xu was in the kitchen and looked back in surprise.

When did Ji Ziang become so fond of studying?

Ji Zixuan took the towel beside him and wiped his hands: "Here it comes!"

Since his younger brother is willing to learn, he is naturally willing to teach.

The two of them were still studying until Li Xu finished cooking. Ji Ziang's expression was very serious, and he asked questions from time to time, which didn't seem like he was fooling around.

Li Xu looked relieved and called out to them, "Don't worry about it. Come eat first and then write after dinner."

Ji Zixuan pulled Ji Ziang to the dining table. Ji Ziang ate very quickly and kept urging Ji Zixuan after he finished eating.

Seeing Li Xu and Ji Zixuan looking surprised, Ji Yuanyuan smiled secretly.

They naturally didn't know that Ji Ziang was sharpening his spear before the battle. I believe that with Ji Zixuan's special training, Ji Ziang will definitely do well in the exam tomorrow.

In the evening, Ji Ziang read until after ten o'clock. Only after Li Xu's repeated urging did he go to bed.

The next morning, Ji Yuanyuan was a little absent-minded in class. She was worried about Ji Ziang.

Although she believed in Ji Ziang, she didn't know whether taking the test in front of the whole class would affect his mentality.

What if I get affected and do poorly on the exam, wouldn’t that give people something to talk about?

At this moment, in the fourth grade classroom.

The students were all sitting downstairs, doing their exams. Ji Ziang was sitting alone on the podium, and Teacher Xu was sitting on one side of the podium, looking at Ji Ziang.

We can't let everyone watch Ji Ziang doing the questions alone. That would not only waste everyone's time, but also cause huge psychological pressure on Ji Ziang.

This way you get the best of both worlds.

Ji Ziang's mentality seemed to be unaffected at all. He lowered his head and wrote furiously at the podium.

After finishing all three subjects, it was already noon and school was over.

Ji Yuanyuan had been waiting at the entrance of the fourth grade early. When she saw Ji Ziang coming out, she hurried over to him and asked, "Second brother, how is it?"

Ji Ziang stretched out his hand and made a "yeah" gesture to Ji Yuanyuan, "Tsk, it's a piece of cake."

Seeing that Ji Ziang had returned to his previous self, Ji Yuanyuan felt relieved.

Several teachers added a class at noon, and in the second class in the afternoon, the results of the fourth grade extra exam came out.

Ji Ziang’s performance this time has attracted attention not only from the fourth grade teachers, but also from teachers of other grades.

After all, it is really shocking that a person who was ranked last could improve by more than 20 places in one go.

So when the results came out this time, everyone couldn’t help but go and take a look.

"Twenty-first? It seems that Ji Ziang really didn't cheat."

"I dropped three places compared to last time. I guess I was affected by being on the podium."

"This child seems quite smart. If we guide him well, he might be able to make progress."

"Teacher Xu, what are you going to do? Are you really going to apologize to Ji Ziang?"

"I think an apology should be given. The child must be feeling aggrieved. Besides, it's not shameful for a teacher to apologize to a student."

"I don't think it's necessary. Why take a child's words seriously? Maybe it will just pass if you fool around."

…

Teacher Xu didn't say anything. He sat in his seat with a sad look on his face.

He was not afraid of losing face if he apologized, but he was worried about how to deal with the classmate who complained to him.

It turned out that Ji Ziang did not cheat. He later discussed this matter with other students around Ji Ziang.

No one saw Ji Ziang cheating, which proved that the classmate lied. In this matter, both he and the classmate did something wrong and hurt Ji Ziang.

Therefore, there is no problem for him to apologize to Ji Ziang.

However, if that classmate were to come out and apologize publicly, everyone would know that he lied because he was jealous of Ji Ziang.

Will he be isolated and laughed at in class?

This was something he didn't want to see.

In the second class in the afternoon, Teacher Xu switched classes with the original Chinese teacher.

He stepped into the classroom as the bell rang.

Standing on the podium, he looked around and cleared his throat: "Everyone, please be quiet. The results of the morning exam are out."

He handed the report card in his hand to the students in the first row: "Pass it around and have a look."

After a pause, he said, "I have already checked the matter of a classmate reporting Ji Ziang for cheating in the exam."

Ji Ziang puffed out his chest and raised his head, looking very proud.

Not far from him, a classmate looked down at his fingers, which were shaking slightly.

"From this report card, you can see that Ji Ziang did not cheat. Through his hard work during the winter vacation, his academic performance has improved greatly. This is something that everyone should learn from."

The transcript was passed around among the classmates. Everyone was very surprised to see Ji Ziang's grades and kept looking back at him.

Ji Ziang raised his head even higher.

"At the same time, I want to apologize to Ji Ziang. I was wrong to suspect you of cheating. Ji Ziang, I hope you can forgive the teacher."
