Chapter 16
Huang Liju held Wang Jiazhi's hand and stood at the door of the teachers' dormitory.
"You must help me. I don't know how to say it."
Wang Jiazhi sighed inwardly. She was only giving her some kind advice out of consideration for their friendship, so why was she dragged along to see Cobra with her?
The teacher named Cobra is indeed famous for being annoying in the whole school because he has a long and pointed face and wears black-framed glasses. He is mean, arrogant and neurotic, and likes to scream and lose his temper at any time. He is like a provocative cobra spitting out its core, hence the name.
Wang Jiazhi said, "Remember, don't tell her directly about failing the exam. She's incredibly arrogant. If you tell her directly, she'll definitely not help you. She's afraid people will say she's unfair. You have to be subtle."
"Then how can I say it cryptically?"
Wang Jiazhi was going crazy. She had told her many times, but she just couldn't understand.
"Why don't you tell me later? I can't do it myself, so I need your help."
Wang Jiazhi thought to herself, "Why did I get dragged into this?"
Knocking on the door, Cobra was surprised by their arrival. One was wearing a gorgeous navy dress with pink doggie hair, and the other was wearing a shabby plaid cheongsam. But the poorly dressed one looked better.
Huang Liju said, "Let's come and see the teacher on the weekend."
The cobra asked in surprise, "Why are you looking at me?"
Huangliju couldn't speak after being filled with this basin of cold water.
Wang Jiazhi quickly smiled and said, "Xiaoju has always liked the teacher and wanted to meet the teacher. Today, when I was shopping, I saw a silk scarf that I thought was particularly suitable for the teacher. Especially..."
Wang Jiazhi deliberately hesitated, then said, "Just recently...she also felt the need to come and see the teacher."
When Cobra saw Huang Liju holding an exquisite light blue box with a white bow and Wang Jiazhi holding a bunch of musk lilies, he was immediately overjoyed when he heard that they liked him very much and came to see him. He let them in and said he would make them coffee.
The two of them hurriedly said it was not bothering her, but she went back to boil water and make coffee.
One of them sat on the small sofa and the other sat on a chair, which was a bit awkward.
When Cobra finally hurriedly made the coffee and sat down to talk to them.
Huang Liju took out a silk scarf and said, "I don't know if the teacher likes it or not, but I think the teacher is the best match for Lily."
Then Wang Jiazhi brought out the bouquet of white musk lilies, wrapped in light green paper and tied with a white ribbon.
Smiling, she said, "This is also a gift from Xiaoju to the teacher. She said the teacher looks like this kind of flower."
When the cobra saw the flowers, he was extremely happy. He was busy looking for a vase to put the flowers in. He also took out some assorted cookies for them to eat, and insisted that they eat them.
After Cobra had finished arranging the flowers in a hurry, he finally sat down and talked to them.
Wang Jiazhi only ate one-tenth of the cocoa biscuit in her hand, and then awkwardly ate another tenth, waiting for Huang Liju to speak.
Huangliju and Cobra chatted enthusiastically about a lot of random things, and mentioned the matter of failing the exam in a blunt way.
Huang Liju kept throwing glances at Wang Jiazhi. Wang Jiazhi ate another tenth of the biscuit and said frantically, "Why do you have to tell me about your own affairs?"
In order to end this matter as soon as possible, and because this method was hers, if it didn't work, the money would be wasted. Although it was none of her business, in order to get rid of the awkward atmosphere, she finally said, "Xiao Ju likes listening to the teacher's poetry class the most. I wonder which one the teacher will like to teach the most next semester."
Cobra was very excited about teaching Shakespeare next semester and talked about all kinds of details.
Then he added, "Now that I'm saying it, you'll find it boring when I come out, so I'll keep some of the highlights."
Wang Jiazhi said, "Teacher, please tell me. Xiaoju really wants to hear it. Next semester... I might not be able to hear it."
Cobra asked the reason in surprise.
Wang Jiazhi sighed, "Xiaoju fell ill before the final exam, and her review wasn't ideal. She's definitely failing two subjects, and there's a very high chance she'll fail another. She'll probably have to repeat the grade and won't be able to attend the teacher's classes anymore, so she came here today to say goodbye. Normally, she always tells me she likes the teacher, but she's too embarrassed to come see the teacher, fearing that the teacher won't think she's good enough. So today is a farewell."
Cobra immediately understood the purpose of their visit, and the excited smile on his face faded. However, he still smiled and told them to have confidence in themselves, believing that Huangliju would not repeat the grade.
The purpose was stated, and the conversation quickly ended. Coming out, both of them seemed to have exerted all their strength, but they had finally accomplished something significant.
