Although the other party tried to be very discreet, it was still obvious to her.
Yuan Mengge sighed, "Sigh~"
"What's wrong?" Lin Manyue, who was walking next to her, asked her with a puzzled look.
Yuan Mengge shook her head and said, "It's nothing, I just feel that the classes I've been taking lately are a bit harder to understand."
Actually, the lessons nowadays are not difficult to understand; you can even understand them after listening to them once and remember the key points.
"Is it hard to understand now? I heard it's even harder for juniors and seniors." Lin Manyue sighed as she spoke, and continued, "Although understanding it isn't difficult, there are just too many subjects, and I can't remember them all... I feel like my memory is getting worse."
Yuan Mengge looked at her and said, "Don't there also be so many subjects in junior high school? You've managed to learn them all quite well."
Lin Manyue said, "But junior high school doesn't feel that difficult... High school is not only difficult, but also has a lot of problems, it's a headache just looking at them."
During this time, Wu Bohao would still come over to talk to her from time to time, but Yuan Mengge would only respond to him in a lukewarm manner.
Let him wander around.
She went to visit Li Xue'e over the weekend, and Li Xue'e didn't encounter any further problems.
It's possible that she physically disciplined someone on her first day, which has led to everyone saying she's fierce and difficult to get along with.
Although her reputation was somewhat negative, Li Xue'e didn't care.
Anyway, she didn't intend to get close to those people; she always kept to herself.
But she wouldn't tolerate anyone speaking ill of her to her face anymore.
Yuan Mengge told Li Xue'e about her previous experience. Li Xue'e was shocked to hear that all of them had been kidnapped by drug dealers.
They open their mouths and call those people immoral. How can they prey on students who are not yet adults?
There are still so many people!
It's absolutely infuriating.
Li Xue'e cursed and swore for a while, but her anger subsided a bit after hearing Yuan Mengge say that they had destroyed those people's factories and arrested them and sent them to the police.
The time that followed passed quietly in a busy learning environment; spring came and summer arrived, and May Day came.
After finishing her midterm exams, Yuan Mengge looked at her grades and found them to be very good, with a slight improvement.
Each improvement, though small, is still quite enjoyable.
Because of the kidnapping incident, Yuan Mengge became a special case in the class.
Although no one knew that she single-handedly destroyed the entire drug den, she was the only one who managed to escape from those people and even rescue her classmate—a truly remarkable figure.
In everyone's eyes, she was very bold and capable, with an air of fearlessness.
So no one dared to mess with her.
She's so famous that sometimes even the older students in their junior and senior years of high school would come down to take a look at her out of curiosity.
Although people were curious about her gaze, there wasn't much malice in it.
Yuan Mengge didn't take it too seriously.
So this semester is coming to an end.
However, Yuan Mengge still had one thing to do before the end of this semester.
It's about what I promised Liang Hao before; registration started this year.
The competition lasts for more than a month, starting with registration at the city level, then advancing to the provincial level, and finally reaching the national finals.
Then comes the international arena.
However, this time conflicted with Yuan Mengge's class schedule, and asking for leave was also troublesome, as it required clearly stating why one needed to take leave.
When the homeroom teacher learned that she had asked for leave because she was going to a martial arts competition, they all looked at her speechlessly.
Some even thought she was being unreasonable, arguing that she should be skipping her classes to participate in a martial arts competition.
And what kind of martial arts competitions do girls participate in?
Anyway, the homeroom teacher's words were somewhat sarcastic, mocking her for being a girl and wielding knives and guns, doing things that only boys would do.
Yuan Mengge gradually understood the meaning behind her words. To sum it up in one sentence, this female homeroom teacher's thinking was, to put it nicely, rather conservative.
To put it bluntly, they are just like men, favoring sons over daughters and emphasizing female virtue education.
The competition will last for six days, and participants need to arrive in the host city in advance to compete.
So she needs to take six days off.
Her current homeroom teacher is not as easy to talk to as her predecessor. Even though her grades have been steadily improving and she has gradually climbed into the top ten in the class, she has not received any special favor from her homeroom teacher.
Not only did she not show any favoritism, the homeroom teacher even disliked her somewhat.
So when she went to ask for leave, her homeroom teacher immediately frowned and said all sorts of sarcastic things to her, instilling some traditional female virtues in her.
The idea that girls should be quiet and gentle and shouldn't practice martial arts is ridiculous.
She was told not to act like a wild woman, or she would never be able to get married.
They say that girls should be virtuous and gentle, and that they should learn how to be good wives and mothers and how to manage the family. There is no need for them to do *that* kind of thing.
Moreover, Yuan Mengge discovered that she basically held the same view about all the girls in the class.
If a girl with good grades makes the same mistake as a boy with poor grades, she will only scold the boy and let it go, but she will punish the girl by making her do all sorts of cleaning.
Yuan Mengge heard that she herself had given birth to three daughters, and then desperately gave birth to a son before she was done.
Just thinking about how her three daughters grew up under her ideological guidance, Yuan Mengge felt sorry for them.
After listening to her rambling on and on with a bunch of fallacies, Yuan Mengge only said two sentences:
"Teacher, whether I'm a boy or a girl, it's my freedom to do whatever I want, as long as it's not illegal or criminal. Besides, I participated in the competition to fulfill a promise I made to someone. Do you want me to be a person who breaks their word?"
Hearing her words, the homeroom teacher rolled her eyes and said, "There was a problem with you agreeing to this kind of agreement in the first place. What kind of martial arts competition would a girl go and fight with someone? Playing around up there with so many people watching, is that a good look?"
Yuan Mengge looked at her calmly and said, "Well, I've already promised them, so I have to keep my word, right, teacher?"
The homeroom teacher couldn't refute this, and finally said to her in a gloomy tone, "If you drag down your grades because of this, don't blame me for not teaching you well."
Yuan Mengge said, "Don't worry, even if my grades drop, it's my own fault and has nothing to do with you. I won't blame you."
The homeroom teacher remained silent for a few seconds after hearing this before signing her leave slip.
After Yuan Mengge took the leave slip, she turned and left. When she reached the office door, she did not leave immediately, but stood there against the wall for a moment.
Then I heard sounds coming from inside...
Her homeroom teacher said dismissively, "Just by looking at Yuan Pingping's face, I can tell her fate is too strong. What kind of nonsense is it for a girl to participate in a martial arts competition? Don't you all agree?"
