Chapter 118 A Bad Premonition
Seeing that she agreed, Ye Meiling chuckled, feeling that she had something to look forward to in the second year of junior high.
If Shen Xuewei becomes her deskmate, then she can copy homework anytime, right?
The classroom was noisy, and Shen Xuewei's head was starting to ache from the noise.
With about ten minutes left before evening self-study, she stuffed her schoolbag into the desk, said something to Ye Meiling who was engrossed in copying her homework, and then walked toward Class 6 of the second year of junior high school.
Wu Yuhong arrived at school later than her because of family matters.
Shen Xuewei arrived at the door of Class 6, Grade 8, and looked around the classroom, but did not see Wu Yuhong.
She was a little worried.
Are they not coming?
Or did something happen?
Undeterred, he looked around twice more, but still couldn't see it, so he went back to the classroom.
I had barely settled into my seat back in the classroom when the bell rang for evening self-study.
Shen Xuewei took out her pencil case and a junior high school Chinese tutoring book, placed them on the table, and flipped through a few pages from time to time.
The classroom was quieter than before the bell rang, but it was still very noisy.
This is true not only for Class 6 of Grade 8, but also for all other classes.
Gradually, it seemed that some teachers came to the classrooms to manage discipline, and the noise from each class gradually subsided.
The teacher of Class 6, Grade 8, was late in arriving. After the other classes quieted down, the class became unusually noisy, which eventually attracted the attention of the Dean of Students.
The head of student affairs, his face dark, stood at the door and snapped, "What's all the noise about? I walked all the way down the corridor and every class was quiet except yours!"
The stern voice rang out, and the noisy classroom instantly fell silent.
At this moment, Ms. Xue, the homeroom teacher of Class 6, Grade 8, finally arrived late.
"I'm sorry, I forgot to take something when I went out, so I'm late."
This is a young teacher with long hair held in place by a blue headband, cascading down her back.
He apologized in a very gentle tone, but his face didn't show much remorse.
The head of the teaching department sighed inwardly. He didn't want to offend this teacher with connections, so he just nodded with a stern face and left with his hands behind his back.
Teacher Xue walked to the podium with a smile, clapped her hands, and said, "Alright, everyone, quiet down and listen to me."
"Next, the teacher will call out your names one by one. When your name is called, just say 'present'."
"Yes, teacher," the students below responded.
She took out the student list and called out each student's name one by one.
Except for a few day students, all the other students were present.
"Alright, everyone's here. You can read or do your homework, just don't make noise. Hand in your summer homework before evening self-study ends."
She designated two students standing near the door to bring their homework to the office later, then left the classroom with her bag.
After she left, the people in the classroom started talking again, but this time their voices were much quieter.
Some were reading, some were chatting, some were rushing to finish their homework; everyone in the classroom seemed very busy.
After evening self-study ended, everyone left the classroom. Some went to the convenience store to buy things, some played ball on the court, and some went straight back to the dormitory.
Shen Xuewei and Ye Meiling ran two laps around the track together, and after sweating a little, they returned to their dormitory.
Shen Xuewei took a shower and did laundry in her dorm room, and then had nothing else to do.
After thinking for a moment, she went to Wu Yuhong's dormitory.
After peering out the door, I finally spotted Wu Yuhong.
"Yu Hong." She waved to Wu Yu Hong.
Wu Yuhong was tidying up when she heard Shen Xuewei's voice. She turned her head to look at the door, her face lit up with joy, and she quickly ran out.
"Weiwei."
"Yu Hong, why are you so late? I went to your class earlier, but I didn't see you."
Wu Yuhong said apologetically, "My mom took me to my aunt's house, and I went home to pack my things before coming to school, so I'm much later than usual."
"When I got to school, it was almost nine o'clock, so I didn't go to the classroom and went straight to the dormitory."
Shen Xuewei didn't ask her why she went to her aunt's house; she was relieved to see her at school.
The two stood outside the dormitory corridor talking until the lights-out bell rang, at which point Shen Xuewei returned to the dormitory.
After talking with Ye Meiling for a while, the dormitory lights were turned off on time at ten o'clock.
She went to the toilet and then lay down on the bed to sleep.
The next morning, after having breakfast in the cafeteria, I arrived at the classroom just before the class bell rang.
After morning reading, the national flag was raised, and the principal gave a speech. Shen Xuewei and the students who ranked in the top ten of the grade last semester went up to receive their awards and came down.
Taking the opportunity, Wang Zhuoxi asked her, "Shen Xuewei, I was assigned to Class 1, which class were you assigned to?"
As she walked, Shen Xuewei whispered, "I'm in Class 3."
The two didn't have a chance to say anything more and returned to their respective class teams.
After the dismissal, we returned to the classroom, and the next step was to receive and distribute the books.
After recognizing the faces of the teachers from each subject, the homeroom teacher appointed the class officers and then announced that the seating arrangement would be rearranged.
Upon hearing this, the class erupted in groans of despair.
Ye Meiling also grabbed Shen Xuewei's hand and wailed unwillingly, "Weiwei, I finally got to be in the same class as you again, I don't want to be separated from you."
Shen Xuewei said helplessly, "Let's see what the teacher decides. We can't go against the teacher's wishes."
She let go and slumped weakly onto the table. "Teacher is so annoying. Why do you have to separate us?"
He didn't dare to speak loudly when he said this, only muttering it softly.
Shen Xuewei tidied up the things on the table, waiting for the seats to be reassigned later.
She's short but has good grades, so no matter how the seating is reassigned, she'll probably be placed near the front.
As everyone hurriedly packed their things, a student raised his voice and asked the homeroom teacher:
"Teacher, how do we divide them? Can we not divide them? I promise I won't talk in class."
Teacher Xue gave the lively student a reproachful look. "This time, we'll rearrange the seats according to the grades."
Shen Xuewei nodded knowingly; this was one of the common methods of assigning seats, and she had already guessed it.
However, the next moment...
"However, this time the seating arrangement based on scores is different from what you've done before," she said with a smile.
Shen Xuewei had a bad feeling.
"Our class seating arrangement will be based on last semester's final exam scores. The first-place student will sit next to the last-place student, the second-place student will sit next to the second-to-last student, and so on..."
Shen Xuewei's face darkened.
Sure enough, her prediction came true.
Ye Meiling mustered her courage and raised her hand. "Teacher, my grades last semester were seventh from the bottom in the class, which was very bad. Could you let me sit with Shen Xuewei? I will definitely study hard."
After she spoke up, the other students quickly nodded and said, "Yes, teacher, my grades are also very bad. My deskmate has good grades, so let him take me along. We don't need to change seats."
Teacher Xue's smile vanished, and her face hardened.
"What's all the noise about? Are you the teachers, or am I the teacher?"
