'Ding ding ding ding'
A hurried bell for the end of get out of class rang on time at 8:25 in the morning, telling teachers and students who were immersed in class or playing with their mobile phones that the first class was over.
"Okay, let's stop here for today," Zhou Yu skillfully threw the half of white chalk in his hand back into the chalk box on the podium, and began to pack up the textbooks on the podium. "Everyone, let's take a break. What is the next class?" Zhou Yu asked.
"English!"
"English class, Lao Zhou!"
"Ouch, I have to start being tortured again!"
"Oh, I really don't want to go to English class!"
...
...
When Zhou Yu heard someone say that they didn't want to attend English class, his face suddenly darkened and he scolded, "If you don't even want to attend English class, then why are you still coming to school?"
"Oh! Lao Zhou, you misunderstood!" The man who spoke hurriedly explained, "It was mainly because of Mr. Yao Min, our English teacher. To be honest, it was like he had a big carrot in his mouth! I couldn't hear what he was saying in class at all!"
The English teacher of Zhou Yu's class was called Yao Min, not the Yao Ming who played basketball, but the Min of the people. Zhou Yu had known this teacher for so long that he naturally knew his character.
He is a nice person, just a little lazy. As for the quality of his classes, well...it depends on personal opinion. Some people like his classes, but many people don't.
Moreover, as the student just said, Yao Min's speech was a bit unclear. Even Zhou Yu could not hear what Yao Min was saying when he was communicating with him.
"No way?" Zhou Yu was a little surprised. "Although Mr. Yao's speech is indeed a little unclear, I heard that he always pays attention to this during class, right? It can't be to the point where I can't hear him clearly at all, right?"
"Really, Lao Zhou, what he said is true! Believe me!" Zhou Tao from below also interrupted, "It's ok that Teacher Yao speaks unclearly, but he also looks impatient when I ask him questions!"
"If Teacher Yao's teaching is half as good as yours, we wouldn't say anything! Also, I think you teach English better than Teacher Yao!"
"Yes, that's right!"
"Compared over this period of time, it is indeed the case!"
Zhou Tao's words immediately attracted the agreement of several students who attended Zhou Yu's weekend tutoring class.
"Okay, okay!" Although some of his classmates were happy about his recognition, it would be a big trouble if these comparisons were to reach the ears of the teacher involved.
Therefore, Zhou Yu's expression changed immediately. His face darkened and he scolded, "Don't say anything that is not conducive to unity!"
Seeing Zhou Yu was angry, the students below dared not breathe, and dared not mention the matter again. In the extremely quiet environment, Zhou Yu packed up his things and left the classroom on his own.
......
After the second class, the break time between classes is usually 20 minutes.
Usually at this time, the school will arrange all students to go to the playground to do exercises during class breaks.
But today's weather was bad, with a slight drizzle in the air that kept falling on the ground. As conditions did not allow, the break exercises were naturally put on hold.
Students gathered in groups of three or four, either chatting together in the corridor, or going to the toilet together; or those who had not eaten breakfast or were greedy made an appointment to go to the cafeteria or supermarket together to buy some snacks or breakfast to eat in the classroom.
"Hey, Zhou Tao, the world is so small, why do I see you again!" Zhou Tao was a little hungry because he didn't have breakfast in the morning, so he went to the cafeteria to buy breakfast during the break. He had just bought two buns and was eating while walking when he heard someone calling him from behind.
Zhou Tao turned around and looked behind him. As expected, he saw his former deskmate whom he had been with for two and a half years.
"Zhou Tao, what's going on?" Seeing Zhou Tao, his former deskmate quickened his pace with excitement and walked to his side. "Our class's monthly exam results are out, but yours haven't come out yet?"
"Tsk tsk, are the results too bad? That's why I don't tell you the total score? A parallel class is a parallel class. It's really not good. Not to mention the advanced class, it's not even as good as our key class!"
"......"
Zhou Tao didn't say anything because he had just taken a big bite of the bun and was chewing it in his mouth and wanted to swallow it. However, he didn't realize that this bite was too much and he couldn't swallow it for a long time and choked.
His former deskmate, who had been waiting for a long time, didn't hear the response he wanted, so he looked to the side curiously.
"Zhou Tao, why are you hiding from me?" Seeing Zhou Tao with his back turned and stroking his chest, my former deskmate thought that what he said was too harsh, and he couldn't help but feel a little sorry, "I'm sorry, Zhou Tao, my words were a bit harsh, don't take it to heart."
After taking a long time to finally swallow the big mouthful of dough that was stuck in his throat, Zhou Tao couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard the last words of his former deskmate.
"What are you talking about, you idiot?" Zhou Tao glared at his former deskmate. "I just choked on a bun! Do you think I'm as fragile as you? Are you so sad that you can't speak after a few words?"
“Hahahahahahaha, I knew you weren’t that fragile!” The former desk mate patted Zhou Tao’s shoulder and laughed, “So, your class’s results haven’t come out yet? The results of other classes have all come out!”
"You are Class 10, right?" After getting Zhou Tao's confirmation, the former deskmate continued, "The efficiency of your Class 10 is too low, isn't it? It's not like what I said, the results are too bad so they don't count them, right?"
"That's what I said. No wonder our head teacher and other substitute teachers said that the new intern teacher is unreliable!"
Zhou Tao was speechless as his former deskmate was still talking. He interrupted his former deskmate and said, "Our results are out! Who told you that our results haven't come out yet?"
“Hahahahahaha, right, I just…ah?” My former deskmate was stunned for a moment, “You came out? That’s fine, I guess your grades won’t be good! Haha, how much did you get in the exam, Zhou Tao!”
Zhou Tao smiled slightly, "I didn't do well in the exam, just 457."
"457 is... Duo, Duo Shao?" My former deskmate's eyes widened. "You scored 457? That must be fake. I only scored 410!"
"It's real, 457," Zhou Tao smiled even more after hearing his former deskmate say he only scored 410. "Even with that, our class teacher criticized me and told me to work harder. Alas, there's nothing I can do. I didn't put enough effort into studying before, so I can only score this low."
Zhou Tao pretended to be cool, and his former deskmate's smile became a little forced. "Haha, haha," he forced a laugh and continued, "457 is quite high, so you should be the first among your group, right? Haha, that's pretty good. The highest score in our key class was only over 460! I heard that the highest score in the advanced class, Chen Ran, only scored over 480!"
Zhou Tao blinked, "More than 480? That won't work either."
"No way?" My former deskmate sneered, "Wait until you get over 480!"
"I didn't score over 480, but I didn't say I had the highest score in our class!"
"Huh?" The former deskmate looked at Zhou Tao suspiciously, "What do you mean? You're not the tallest?"
"Yes, our Liang Yin scored higher than me," Zhou Tao smiled slightly, "I think it was 546? I remember it was about this much."
