Chapter 305: Tadpoles Looking for Their Mother in the 1980s (13)



In this quiz, Xu Keke achieved the highest total score in the entire grade. She even scored a perfect score in English, the subject Cheng Yi was most worried about.

Luna was indignant and raised her hand directly in class, "Teacher, she cheated."

"Oh, do you have any evidence?"

The English teacher also had doubts about Xu Keke's grades. However, Xu Keke's scores in all subjects were not low this time. In addition, it was the first time she had a deskmate, and her deskmate was the outstanding Cheng Yi.

All the teachers agreed that it was Cheng Yi's help that opened her eyes to learning. Otherwise, they couldn't find a better reason to explain everything.

Hearing Luna say this, the English teacher assumed she knew something and became interested as well.

Luna retorted confidently, "She used to get zero on her English tests. If she gets a ten on a test, it's because she's improved. How could her grades suddenly become so good? She must have cheated."

Seeing the English teacher's furrowed brows, and remembering what her deskmate had just said, Luna quickly added, "She must have copied Cheng Yi's test paper."

The teacher, completely losing her patience, interrupted, "Alright, sit down now."

The teachers had already discussed this issue together.

The earlier exams were one thing, but for the later ones, because their previous grades were so outstanding, they had all been specifically monitored during the exams. Cheating in class was absolutely out of the question.

Besides, she scored better than Cheng Yi on this test. Who did she copy from for the questions Cheng Yi got wrong?

So that's simply impossible. The teacher glanced at Luna with some disappointment. Making things up without any basis—and she's supposed to be the class monitor!

Teachers naturally prefer students who study hard and achieve good results. After thinking about it, and not wanting to discourage Xu Keke's enthusiasm for learning, the English teacher unusually added a few words...

"Luna, as the class monitor, you need to be careful what you say in the future. Don't make things up without evidence."

This isn't the first time a teacher has criticized her in front of the whole class. Teachers used to always defend her; this is unprecedented.

Luna blushed and said defiantly, "Then teacher, why don't you ask her why her studies suddenly improved? Let her share her experience, and we can all learn from her."

That's fine; she remembered that this student wasn't usually very talkative. The English teacher looked at Xu Keke with a questioning gaze.

The meaning couldn't be clearer: if she wanted to speak, she could; if she didn't want to, the teacher wouldn't make things difficult for her.

Luna gritted her teeth, secretly resenting the teacher's favoritism. She had completely forgotten how her teachers used to protect her.

Xu Keke stood up slowly and deliberately. "I used to do poorly in school because I lacked confidence. I knew no one liked me, so I was very insecure. Ever since Cheng Yi came, he has helped me with every exam, highlighting the key points for me and explaining the questions to me."

I didn't do well on the test at first because good grades don't come overnight; they require a process of accumulation. That's why I was able to do relatively well this time.

Xu Keke glanced at her classmates. "After this incident, I realized that I don't need to care about what others think. Also, I misunderstood a lot of things. I used to think that there were no good people in this world, and that everyone was deliberately isolating me."

I used to think that my poor academic performance was because I wasn't smart enough. Now I realize that I was wrong. People aren't that bad, and I'm not that bad either.

Xu Keke spoke calmly and composedly. However, both the teachers and the students below were somewhat moved. Many were reflecting on Xu Keke's words.

Many people turned their attention to Luna.

Feeling the gazes of everyone, Luna lowered her head guiltily.

Her heart was pounding. She could vaguely sense that something that belonged to her was slipping away.

Her eyes darted around, and she lost all interest in the lesson, constantly thinking about what she should do.

When it was time to leave school in the afternoon, Xu Keke never expected that she would be kept at school by the teacher because she had done too well on the test.

I received extra tutoring from the top students.

Xu Keke was speechless, but she could only follow. After all, Cheng Yi and Xiao Han were both there. Besides, if she left now, the teachers would definitely think she was arrogant because of her achievements.

The reason she did so well on the test was to pull Luna down from her position as class monitor. She needs the teachers' favor right now.

Just to reinforce her grades, the teachers gave her several extra sets of test papers. Xu Keke got annoyed as soon as she saw them.

She wasn't a very patient person to begin with. In her eyes, doing these tests was a waste of time.

How could she possibly be in a good mood? Fortunately, Cheng Yi helped her again, taking out a few of her extra test papers and distributing them to the other boys in the class.

Luna saw it, but this time she didn't go to the teacher to complain. She just watched them coldly from the side with a sullen face.

Xu Keke dragged Cheng Yi and the other two down, and by the time the three of them left the school, it was almost dark.

She and Cheng Yi stood at the school gate, waiting for Xiao Han to get the bicycle. Subconsciously, Xu Keke looked across the street.

The white van reappeared; it was parked there.

Her absent-mindedness caught Cheng Yi's attention. Following her gaze, he asked, "You know him?"

Cheng Yi's question brought Xu Keke back to her senses. "That car has been appearing around here. I initially thought it was heading towards Li Bo. But Li Bo should have gone home long ago. Wait for me, I..."

Before she could even say "Let's go take a look," Cheng Yi grabbed her arm. "If you think there's a problem, don't go over there yet. You'll alert them."
