"Li Ke, is this your attitude towards learning? Sleeping in class this morning, I think you really don't care about your future!" A middle-aged woman said with a look of disappointment, looking at the stunned Li Ke with disdain.
Li Ke was somewhat disoriented, lost in thought as she stared at the students and desks that had suddenly appeared before her. Only then did the teacher's reprimanding voice ring in her ears, bringing her back to her senses.
A book lay on the ground, quite heavy. Li Ke touched her head; she must have been woken up by this book just now—a scene all too familiar.
Her chest was fine, her heart was beating easily and strongly, her fingers were slender and long, and apart from calluses on her palms and fingertips, they were still quite soft, and her skin was white and smooth. What was going on?
"Li Ke, are you ignoring me? If you don't want to continue this school, get out of here now!" The female teacher saw that Li Ke had come to her senses, but still treated her as if she didn't exist, only pretending to be crazy and looking her up and down. This made her even more dissatisfied.
Li Ke looked up at the teacher. The woman had shoulder-length short hair, long and narrow eyes, long eyebrows, a high nose, and very thin lips. Li Ke recognized the face immediately.
This was her homeroom teacher during her senior year of high school, who disliked her very much. Li Ke was often reprimanded in her class.
It wasn't that Li Ke was inherently unruly or disobedient to the teacher. Li Ke didn't do well in school, sat in the back, and was usually quiet.
The homeroom teacher probably thought she was easy to bully, and felt that it would be particularly authoritative to manipulate a student like Li Ke who had no one to rely on, and it could also help to keep other students who were daydreaming in class alert, so he always targeted her.
At first, Li Ke didn't understand, but later she did, and she could only endure it. In any case, she still wanted to go to school.
Seeing Li Ke staring blankly at her, still refusing to admit her mistake and speak, Wang Ling felt her authority had been challenged. She swept the books off Li Ke's desk and said sternly, "Get out of here and stand there. Come to my office after class to write a self-criticism!"
Li Ke stood up, pinching her own palm. Many of her classmates were covering their mouths and snickering. Feeling the pain in her palm, Li Ke's heart pounded with excitement.
Although she still didn't understand the current situation, after struggling in the post-apocalyptic world for thirteen years, she was no longer the little girl who was easily swayed by others and panicked.
Wang Ling was very angry because of Li Ke's slow reaction today. Usually, as soon as she spoke, Li Ke would immediately stand up and admit her mistake, and she would scold her a couple of times.
If he's in a good mood, he'll let her sit down and continue the lesson. If he's in a bad mood or gets annoyed with teaching, he'll make her stand at the back of the classroom or be punished outside. This girl is generally quite easy to discipline.
But today, she made Wang Ling very angry.
Wang Ling was about to ask Li Ke to call her parents when she met the girl's cold and indifferent gaze. Startled, Wang Ling instinctively shut her mouth and said nothing more.
Li Ke glanced at Wang Ling, squatted down to pick up her books, stuffed them into her desk drawer, and then walked out of the classroom as if no one else was there.
A murmur immediately broke out in the classroom.
"The little cabbage has hardened up..."
"Old Wang's attempt to go mad failed..."
"Bitterflower is having second thoughts..."
Li Ke was already recalling many things from her senior year of high school. Her class had a lot of troublemakers, and it was also an ordinary class that dragged the class down.
Because it is a private high school, the students are generally well-off. Those who are from very poor backgrounds and can still attend school here are mostly specially admitted students, and their grades are definitely top-notch.
Li Ke got into this school through connections; her academic performance was very average, and now it can be described as poor.
Li Ke was mostly alone at school, and her daily clothes and food were always in poor condition. Many people knew that she was an orphan and was currently living with her aunt.
So, nicknames like "Little Cabbage," "Bitter Herb," and "Three-Stick" were given to her by her classmates at school.
Standing against the wall by the door, Li Ke ignored everything in the classroom, took out her phone from her clothes and checked the time: 11:10.
Not long after class started, she must have been on break and hadn't woken up in time, which is why Wang Ling caught her and scolded her.
The phone showed that today was May 23, 2024. Li Ke recalled that there were still a little over two weeks until the college entrance examination.
The corridor outside the classroom was completely enclosed by glass, and the sunlight outside looked wonderful. Even standing in the corridor, Li Ke felt that the temperature was just right, neither too hot nor too cold, and the central air conditioning was running very quietly.
The school's facilities are excellent in every way. Her class, Class 6 of Senior Three, is on the third floor. The first floor is for advanced classes, the second floor is the teachers' office area and the electronic laboratory, and the third floor is for the three classes that are lagging behind.
Li Ke only lingered outside the classroom for a short while. After gaining more memory, she decisively turned around and walked towards the corner of the stairs.
She is now eager to prove something.
Downstairs, there were first-year and second-year high school students having physical education class. Li Ke naturally walked towards the back of the school, which was the school's dormitory area, but Li Ke was a day student.
However, the school gates were closed at that time, so it was impossible for Li Ke to leave the school through the main gate.
The dormitory building and the No. 1 canteen are next to each other, and there is a small alley between the two buildings. Students often sneak out through that alley at night to play. Li Ke and Chen Jiaojiao used to stand outside together waiting for people, so she was not unfamiliar with that place.
