Before Lu Lingshan walked out of the office, Zhou Xiu's face flashed through her mind, slender and pure.
A sense of threat came over her.
After Zhou Xiu returned to the classroom, he arranged the seats. She found her dusty, dirty table clean.
She thanked Huatiao.
Huaxu laughed out loud: "I didn't wipe it for you."
It was a boy from Class 24 who wiped it attentively. As for the stranger, the behind-the-scenes footage couldn't even recognize his face.
Yu Qingyan's eyes fell on Zhou Xiu's face and she sighed, "Sister Xu's milk was not in vain. Xiuxiu looks much better now that she has become whiter."
The saying that whiteness can cover up ugliness is true. Zhou Xiu kept herself covered for a whole winter, and her skin became so white that even Yu Qingyan couldn't help but envy her.
In the behind-the-scenes footage, I touched Zhou Xiu’s face and looked closely. She is pure and beautiful, a standard energetic first love face.
Zhou Xiu has the same type of beauty as Lu Lingshan, but her facial features are more advanced and recognizable.
Huaxu and Lu Lingshan are not of the same type and are often dragged down by her. Zhou Xiu has become so beautiful that Lu Lingshan will probably be pissed off to death.
Huaxu raised her lips and said, "Xiuxiu should pay more attention to protecting her skin in the future. She is naturally beautiful. It's been so ugly for so many years."
When Zhou Xiu first transferred to Class 24, he was in a very bad state, like an unknown ugly duckling. Dry and split hair, dull and rough skin. But the behind-the-scenes footage showed that the skin below her neck, which was not exposed to the light, was white.
This shows that Zhou Xiu doesn't pay enough attention to skin care and sun protection.
Zhou Xiu pursed her lips and said nothing, carefully wrapping the newly distributed textbooks in book covers.
Zhou Xiu does farm work in the countryside every year. She works in the fields on weekends and during winter and summer vacations, harvesting crops and taking care of farm affairs. I don’t even have books to study, so how can I think about protecting my skin?
In rural areas, being beautiful is not considered a good thing.
Zhou Xiu tidied up her desk for a while and looked at her watch. It was almost time, so she carried her schoolbag and walked towards the biology laboratory.
Xu Qing packed his schoolbag and prepared to take the exam.
On the way, they met Zhang Qi who had just come to the school to register.
Zhang Qi saw from afar a pretty girl with a beautiful and pure face walking to the laboratory with Xu Qing. He walked and looked, and when he passed by Zhou Xiu, he kept his eyes on her without turning around.
Until he bumped into the wall and the ice cream in his hand smeared on his clothes, he groaned softly, turned around and shouted:
"Zhou Xiu!"
Zhou Xiu stopped and turned to look at Zhang Qi in confusion.
Zhang Qi looked as if he had seen a ghost. He was so shocked that he couldn't say anything for a long time. "You, what's wrong with you...ah, good morning..."
Zhou Xiu heard his messy words and shrugged helplessly.
Xu Qing couldn't help but laugh, a smile spread across the corners of his mouth, "Xiu Xiu has changed a lot during the winter vacation, which surprised him a little."
Zhou Xiu, carrying her schoolbag, said "hmm".
"Is your English better?" Xu Qing asked.
Zhou Xiu nodded without hesitation, "I've been taking supplementary lessons for a long time, so I should have improved."
She received information from Xi Shaoyuan several times in succession. Those English materials were indeed useful. When she encountered something she didn't know, Zhou Xiu couldn't find the answer on the Internet.
This was probably a question that Xi Shaoyuan's tutor had specially given him.
Zhou Xiu read a quarter of the materials, and now learning high school English is no longer as difficult.
Zhou Xiu quickly arrived at the biology class. She finished the experiment quickly and the biology teacher of the rocket class gave her full marks.
He asked Zhou Xiu by the way: "Zhou Xiu, do you want to come to the rocket class?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Qing paused.
Zhou Xiu shook his head.
After the experiment, the closed-book written test began. Zhou Xiu had already finished the biology league test papers from previous years, so he wrote the test paper very quickly.
The biology league covers a wide range of knowledge points, but most of them require understanding, memorization and recitation, which is not difficult for Zhou Xiu. She submitted the test paper quickly.
Xu Qing also finished writing and handed in the paper.
After school, Xu Qing asked Zhou Xiu, "You received an invitation from the Rocketry Class, don't you plan to go?"
Zhou Xiu simply said, "No."
"Why?"
Zhou Xiu shrugged, "If I go, they will probably feel uncomfortable, right?"
The two classes were fighting so fiercely at first that they almost came to a fight. If she went to the Rocket Class, wouldn't that mean she was bowing to their class?
Zhou Xiu doesn’t want it.
Xu Qing couldn't help laughing after hearing this. He felt relieved. He clenched his fist and coughed lightly: "The students in the Rocket Class should like you too."
"It's different. Class 24 is fine."
It didn't matter much which class Zhou Xiulai studied in, as Xu Qing still managed to get among the top three in the grade even though he was in a backward class.
The teacher of Class 24 is not bad and is much better than the teachers in ordinary high schools.
For Zhou Xiu, being able to study in Yude is already great, but whether she can continue to stay in this school in the future is still a question. I really don't dare to think that far ahead.
…
Zhou Xiu went home directly after taking the biology exam. However, she didn't expect that the rocket class application form she casually put into the drawer would cause an uproar.
When a few poor students were secretly stuffing snacks into her drawer, the application form was accidentally squeezed out.
A poor student from Class 24 picked up the application form and was stunned. "Zhou Xiu wants to transfer classes?"
This sentence created a thousand waves, and the noisy class suddenly fell silent for a few seconds.
Huaxu took the application form and looked at it, and was also stunned, "Xiu Xiu didn't tell me that she wanted to transfer classes?"
The poor students were still excited about Zhou Xiu's good looks, but they didn't expect that in the blink of an eye she would be going to the rocket class.
After Zhou Xiu leaves, who will care about their grades, teach them a lesson, and continue to point out key points for them?
Although Zhou Xiu doesn't talk much in class, no matter how crazy the other students are having fun, they can always see her hardworking and diligent figure when they look back.
Seeing her diligence and hard work, no matter how mediocre they are, they will remember the saying "hard work is useful" and will study as hard as Zhou Xiu. She is like the stabilizing force in the class.
Poor students like Du Feiyang and Yuan Ruoyi, who had just tasted the sweetness of success, couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Huatui thought for a while and said objectively: "If Xiuxiu really went to the rocket class, it would be understandable."
The poor students felt uncomfortable, "Why? The Rocket Class is not friendly to her at all."
The tidbit continued: "At least she can develop better in the Rocket Class. What can our class give her? Can we create better conditions for her, or can we work hard with her?"
Class 24 has terrible grades and poor discipline. How can it be compared with the Rocket Class?
The class is always noisy, and students are often interrupted during self-study classes even when doing homework. In order to take into account the poor students' ability to learn, the subject teachers teach at a slow pace. How is this good for Zhou Xiu?
At this time, the poor students suddenly realized that their class had always asked a lot from Zhou Xiu but never gave anything in return. Tan Ming even made some sarcastic remarks about Zhou Xiu from time to time.
"It's all Tan Ming's fault. A boy shouldn't give in to a girl."
"That's right. Not only did he not read the information Zhou Xiu had worked so hard to compile, he also mocked her."
"They didn't even want to walk with her at the opening ceremony of the school sports meet. Tsk."
Tan Ming was confused: "..."
What does it have to do with him?
The poor students couldn't laugh anymore after hearing this. They really disliked Zhou Xiu at first. Later, it was because Zhou Xiu helped them to confront Lao Huang and voluntarily shared her notes that they gradually changed their views on her.
But they seemed to be of no help to Zhou Xiu, and instead were holding her back.
Although I look down on the top students in the Rocket Class, they do have a good learning atmosphere. Class 24 has poor academic performance and bad discipline, and they are criticized more and more in the notices.
The bottom line is that the class is too poor and cannot retain top students.
Du Feiyang said sadly: "For the sake of future review notes and materials, everyone should be more motivated."
"If we can improve discipline a little bit, work harder, and completely get rid of the backward class, Xiuxiu will not look down on our class anymore."
"If you keep on being so rubbish, what if the squad leader also transfers away?"
The poor students in Class 24 were hit hard: "..."
If the class monitor transfers again, will Class 24 still be Class 24?
School officially starts on Monday.
Zhou Xiu came to the classroom and found that the classmates had become unexpectedly diligent.
The poor student who never participated in the morning reading class at least took out the book and read a few pages. Especially Tan Ming, who was not diligent in studying at all, was also reading seriously in the morning, and it was really like the sun rising from the west.
Yu Qingyan grabbed Zhou Xiu's ponytail and asked her, "Xiu Xiu, you're not really going to the rocket class, are you?"
Zhou Xiu was stunned in surprise. How did Yu Qingyan know about this?
Zhou Xiu whispered, "Where did you hear that?"
She glanced at the drawer and quickly discovered that the application form she had casually put there was missing. She was afraid that someone had found it.
The poor students pricked up their ears and looked around as if they were not paying attention, but they were actually paying attention to what was happening in the corner.
Huaxu patted Zhou Xiu on the shoulder and said, "Xiu Xiu, go ahead. Your English grades will probably get better there. Remember to come back to Class 24 often..."
The poor students in Class 24 felt very sad after hearing this.
Although they are the ones who are despised and abandoned, they should be angry. But they really didn't want Zhou Xiu to transfer to another class.
Zhou Xiu took a look at the poor students in the class and felt the subtle atmosphere. These poor students who were usually complacent now hung their heads with helplessness in their eyes, like abandoned little animals.
It seemed that once they picked up the application form, they would be certain that Zhou Xiu would definitely transfer to another class.
Doesn't this show too much lack of trust in her and in themselves?
Zhou Xiu nodded and said, "Indeed."
"The Rocket Class teacher also told me that their class has a high rate of key students, good discipline, helpful classmates, and a good learning atmosphere. My grades will improve if I go to their class."
Every time she mentioned an advantage, the poor students felt a pain in their knees.
Zhou Xiu changed the subject, "But——"
She pursed her lips and smiled, revealing two canine teeth: "I can do well in the 24th class, why should I go to the rocket class?"
"Class 24 is great. Didn't our class also make progress last semester? As long as you work hard, there is nothing you can't accomplish. I believe in myself, in the power of hard work, and I believe that we can do better together this semester."
Today's morning reading is an English morning reading class. The head teacher Miss Li had arrived a long time ago. She was standing at the door and hadn't gone in.
When she heard Zhou Xiu's words, her heart couldn't help but feel warm.
Zhou Xiu is not going to the Rocket Class anymore?
She walked in and couldn't help but say, "Classmate Zhou Xiu is right."
"On the 'Top 100 Improved Students' List' last semester, five of the top ten were from our class. Although everyone's grades are poor, if we work hard, we are no worse than others!"
Why should people go to the Rocket Class if they need them?
Class 24 disagrees.
