School starts
Looking at the grayish white paper, Yu Xia was still a little slow to react.
Unfortunately, the paper clearly showed that the person he had been thinking about for so long, the person he wanted to meet, did not exist at all.
The doctor's voice kept nagging in his ears, but he couldn't hear anything at this moment, even though it seemed very important.
Yu Xia still stared at the paper blankly, forgetting even to nod or shake her head.
————
It was a year with dense green trees and shade.
Beneath the chirping cicadas, there are green trees and a refreshing breeze.
It’s still the same as previous years, nothing special, but it has changed quietly.
"Xiao Yu, be a good boy in school. Even if your grades are not good, you should listen to the teacher's lectures and don't give up on yourself." Yu Xia was listening to the sixth phone call between him and his mother that day.
"Um"
Their second year of high school started yesterday, but Yu Xia transferred from another school and only registered today.
"Class 2... Class 2..." He was looking up at the triangular class list posted outside the classroom, reciting it silently, which matched his cold expression. Then he suddenly noticed something and stopped slightly.
I don’t know what era the classroom is from, but the rust on it is quite interesting. Yu Xia was a little stunned.
My brain froze for a moment before I pushed the door open and walked in. Class 2 was the worst class in the entire second year of high school, so of course no one would want to come.
The class division mechanism for the second year of high school is based on the final exam results at the end of the second semester of high school. Yu Xia's test paper was different from Shui Heng's, so the teacher directly asked the guardian about the child's level of class division.
Ms. Liao Shengnan’s response at the time was: “Teacher, he’s not that good.”
Shuiheng Middle School’s Grade 2 Class 2 now has a new student.
A boy was standing nearby, and it looked like he had been waiting for quite a while.
"Hello, classmate. Are you new here? But the rumors about you have been circulating here for three days." Yu Xia was startled by the sudden shout as soon as he opened the door.
"Don't be so arrogant." Class 2 is composed of those who ranked at the bottom of each class in the first year of high school. Those with poor grades all know each other and are very happy to be assigned to the same class.
Several people gathered at the door and looked around. Only the average student who was assigned by the school to improve the average score of Class 2 did not dare to go forward. Everyone else, without exception, was looking at the person in front of them.
Yu Xiasheng is fair-skinned and absolutely beautiful. He is about 175cm tall, with a slim waist and long legs. Several girls blushed when they saw him.
"Um...hello," said a braver girl.
It's so enthusiastic that it's scary.
Yu Xia didn't reply, but looked at them coldly.
"What are you all blocking for? Go back! Just look at how excited you are about a transfer student!!" Of course, the most mischievous class has a teacher who can discipline them.
Mr. He is the math teacher for Class 2. He has a square face, and his glasses are also square-framed, making him look like he stepped out of a Tetris puzzle. He's a bit on the heavy side, and his sweaters are always tucked into his baggy jeans.
Teacher He dispersed the crowd blocking the door and waved his hand to let Yu Xia in.
"What's the name?"
"Yu Xia."
Teacher He frowned as he searched for Yu Xia's name on a table on his phone screen. His finger paused at something, and he looked at it three times in disbelief.
"From Nanjing?"
"Um"
“…”
"Did you... mistake 647 for 467? Never mind, 467 can't get into our school. With your condition... you won't last long in our class."
Students from Class 2: "..."
How many points?
"...Come to my office after class."
He thought for a while and added:
"Do you know where it is? Building A, 2nd Floor, Room 204"
"knew."
The ringing of the bell echoed in the corridor. After the crowd dispersed, they returned directly to their seats. Everyone stretched their necks as far as they could without fear of breaking them, as they had to see the second most handsome man in Hengshui in a century.
There was a truly handsome guy in Hengshui Middle School during his freshman year, who was probably assigned to Class 1. He was a top student in his freshman year, and with his handsome face, it's no surprise that girls lined up from Hengshui Middle School to Hengshui No. 2 Middle School just to see him.
But now! There is another handsome guy in their school!
I think the confession wall should have started to explode by now.
This was only seen in advance by Class 2 after they spent a lot of time and effort searching the school network thoroughly when they learned that there was a transfer student in their class.
"Okay, class is starting. Everyone, be quiet. If you make any more noise, get out." Teacher He calmed down and went into class normally.
Yu Xia sat in the last row of the classroom. The guy in front of him, who probably had ADHD, kept rubbing his hands against Yu Xia's desk. "Hey... Hey! Buddy?"
Yu Xia originally didn't want to pay attention, but the person in front of her kept talking.
By the time the get out of class was almost over, he was finally fed up with it: "Don't be crazy, just talk nonsense."
"Oh, you... you're not very smart, and your emotional intelligence is not very good. Why did you choose Class 2? Not all key high schools are key classes."
Yu Xia didn't reply.
Of course he couldn't decide on this kind of thing. It was clearly for his own sake, but he couldn't decide that step.
"...Me?" He always remembered the look on Ms. Liao Shengnan's face as she munched on melon seeds and commented on his worthlessness.
Coming to his senses, he said, "My grades aren't good enough, so I won't accept you into the first class."
It won't harm him. If he can go, there's no reason not to let him go, right?
It's so noisy.
"Huh? You fucking..."
Yu Xia didn't hear clearly because the voice of the student in front of her was drowned out by the bell.
"Okay, look at all the time you've wasted. Yu Xia, right? Come, let's go to my office."
Yu Xia didn't even bother to refute, she just pulled out her stool and slipped away.
The school is large, and it took me two circuits to reach the teacher's office building. Teacher He's desk, minus the pile of clutter he hadn't collected from his classmates, was generally quite tidy.
"Come, sit down."
Hate talking.
"The teacher doesn't ask anything."
Teacher He put down the giant teaching ruler in his hand and looked Yu Xia in the eye.
"Has your score of 647 led you to Class 2 after much deliberation?"
Yu Xia was silent.
"You have to think about the future. This is a goal that everyone should know from a young age."
Still no answer
"Yu Xia, don't just rush into a decision out of spite with your parents."
Is this a monologue for yourself?
"Let me ask you, do you know how much of an impact your impulsive action will have? It concerns your future..."
Still silent.
Why do teachers like to talk about the future?
Is it wholesale production?
Yu Xia knew that when someone insulted you, you shouldn't talk back. It would only make the situation worse.
"Are you mute?"
Why don't you reply
"I……"
He fell silent again. He looked at Teacher He with a hint of suspicion. It was like an instinctive reaction.
“…”
He's a very good student, don't scare him. Teacher He almost feels like he's been brainwashed.
"Don't be nervous, let's talk it over."
The air conditioner in the office hits the ceiling
Teacher He patted Yu Xia's shoulder and told him to relax.
Yu Xia actually didn't think about being nervous. He had dealt with so many things since he was a child that he rarely felt nervous.
"Whose decision is it?"
"My mom."
Teacher He originally thought that the chatterbox had asked a nonsense question, and when he was about to change the question, he was dumbfounded.
Ms. Liao Shengnan walked up the stairs angrily, step by step, wearing her high heels.
He pushed open the office door and located a black-haired boy in five seconds, frowning deeply.
"Xiao Yu, explain it to me tonight."
The woman's voice was flat, just like she was normally scolding a child.
Yu Xia didn't care about it and was no longer afraid.
"Dear parent, thank you for your understanding and for taking the time to come here. We mainly want to discuss Yu Xia's academic performance."
"He...didn't do very well on the test. I'm very grateful to the teacher for his good intentions."
Teacher He stopped drinking water.
"This parent seems to have some misunderstanding about me. I also hope that the problem can be resolved as soon as possible. Yu Xia's parents, do you know that Yu Xia's grades are 647?"
Ms. Liao Shengnan has retained her original image and she doesn't like to talk about her family's private affairs in public.
“I know, I just have to keep working hard.”
"Yeah, so...ah?"
Teacher He admired the thinking of the lady in front of him.
Are our efforts being put in the wrong place?
"I know, it's still a little awful. He should be able to keep up with the teacher in other aspects."
"No, I have many years of experience as a teacher, and I can say that Yu Xia's grades are very good."
"Teacher, you see, we also need to be humble. So even if our grades are slightly better than those of ordinary people, we should not admit that we have good grades like a peacock spreading its tail feathers. Xiao Meng, you don't know this." Ms. Liao Shengnan can go and be a marketing account. This sentence she practiced is quite clever.
“It’s not difficult to admit that your child is excellent.”
“Maybe.”
…
"Although I haven't been with him for long, such an outstanding child has a flaw."
"He has so many shortcomings."
Another wonderful speech!
"...No...because he doesn't have a smile on his face. That's not how a student should be. Your job is to make him happy, and you haven't even achieved the most basic happiness."
"Let him play? In the end, he gave up and his grades plummeted. I don't care." Ms. Liao Shengnan's voice was not very loud, and it didn't sound like a roar. Instead, it had a calm and dignified tone.
"Okay, Mom."
"Yu Xia, have I ever treated you unfairly? I always prioritize you no matter what."
Ms. Liao Shengnan inexplicably developed a temper and began her education.
"...You told the teacher about my faults?"
She seemed to be really hurt by her child's rebelliousness. From an outsider's perspective, they probably thought Yu Xia was a child who was in a rebellious period.
"No, parent, please...calm down." Teacher He thought for a moment and this parent seemed to be even calmer than him.
"Yu Xia, with less than 700 points, what can you use to negotiate with me? I provide you with food and drink, not just for you to live a lazy life."
Teacher He was a little shocked. This goal was a bit too high.
His teacher in Shura Field couldn't even persuade him.
"I'm just teaching you a lesson. Since you did so poorly on the test, you can only study in the right environment."
She could be said to be unusually calm, and the relationship between mother and son seemed to have always been like this.
Ms. Liao Shengnan doesn't like yelling. As a surgeon, she has to control her emotions when facing the patients' families.
Otherwise it would be a bit ungraceful for her.
"Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. You said you should develop your strengths, but I don't see them. You've said this many times, but when did you learn from your mistakes? List them for me to see. It's not that you're useless, but you should check whether you've put in enough effort."
"...Come home, Mom."
"Look, you still want to escape now. I've told you so many times to come back, but you never took it to heart. It all went in one ear and out the other. I know you find me annoying, noisy, and nagging..."
"Mom, I'm tired."
…
"Hey, parent, we're not here to talk about family matters."
Teacher He has a headache and urgently needs someone to care for him.
"After discussing with many teachers, we are going to transfer your child to Class 1."
Please let this be over, God.
"...Even the teacher is helping you get a good ranking. Just do your best on the next test."
Before Teacher He could figure out which sentence made Ms. Liao Shengnan relax, Yu Xiazhen began to thank her and then pulled his mother back.
"I made you some chicken soup. Go back and replenish your brain. You have to keep up with the progress after joining the first class! Are you listening to me?"
The air in the car was filled with an awkwardness that Ms. Liao Shengnan was not aware of. Yu Xia nodded.
"good"
"Look, I went all the way to another city to buy such a big chicken just for you. Do you know how much it cost me? Why would I spend money on you and make soup for you?"
"Um"
"You're playing dumb again. If Mom doesn't love you, who else will? Wait for that person to come back?"
Why mention others?
…
"No"
