The teacher for the second class was the economics teacher. She wasn't interested in tea, but she didn't say anything. After all, Xu Zhaoming was currently trying to curry favor with the economics teacher.
"I'm having trouble balancing work and studies, but I've been consistently reviewing the textbooks. Final exams are coming up soon, and I'd like to ask the teacher for clarification," Xu Zhaoming said.
The economics teacher completely ignored her. She did terribly in class last semester, and it was only thanks to the teacher's leniency that she was able to improve. He probably won't be able to do it again this semester. It's infuriating to look at her.
"Alright, it's good that you have the intention. You can go to the classroom and wait. We need to get ready for class." The business teacher stepped in to smooth things over since the economics teacher hadn't said anything.
Xu Zhaoming gave the management teacher a grateful look, and then left.
Seeing that the economics teacher still looked unhappy, the business teacher slapped him on the back and said, "Come on, stop pretending. Even if you didn't like me, I still got you back."
"That's what I think. If I had the right to fail her, I would just make her fail the course, and she would fail the retake as well. I would make her fail for a whole year. But I don't have that right!" The economics teacher took a sip of water and complained about his dissatisfaction.
The business teacher pushed the gift box towards him, "Alright, here, take this too. Drink as much as you like, so you don't stutter during the lecture later. And you know what she's like, it would have been so much better if she just dropped out of school. She could have just donated to become an alumnus later, right?"
"I just wanted everyone to see that she could balance work and study. Once she graduates, who knows what she was like in school? Take this tea back; it's good stuff, and you can give it to others later." The economics teacher pushed the tea back.
Just then, there was another knock on the door. "Come in," the economics teacher called out.
"Teacher, we've come to get some things. Are you going to class now, or will you wait?" The students who came in were the class representatives from both classes, who were there to routinely get the teacher's books and teacup.
"I'll go now. I'll head over to the economics teacher first." The economics teacher stood up and gestured for the class representative from Class 1 to come and get the things. The class representative from Class 2 also went to the economics teacher to get their schoolbags.
Xu Zhaoming walked from the office to the classroom, hesitated for a moment at the door, unsure if he had gone to the right classroom. "Ah, Zhaoming is here for class! Everyone, welcome him!"
When some classmates came out of the classroom, they saw Xu Zhaoming standing at the door and immediately recognized him. They opened the door to let everyone see him, and there was a flurry of discussion.
After Xu Zhaoming went inside, he randomly found a seat, and immediately a bunch of people surrounded him, all carrying books. "Hey, Zhaoming, you've finally come to class. Ask me if you don't understand anything."
"Hey, she must have been studying on her own. It's almost finals, she should have started memorizing by now. Oh, and the class representative has some materials, remember to ask him for them."
Everyone chatted like that, one sentence after another, until someone said, "The teacher is coming," and then they quieted down.
