Several people hurried out like this. Li Xiujun glanced at her phone and was startled because she saw the message on her phone: "It's over, it's over. We still have classes today. Let's go back to school quickly."
Li Shuai opened his eyes wide, as if he had heard something tragic. After all, he was already in such a miserable state at the moment, and he couldn't believe that he could accompany Li Xiujun like this.
But why couldn't God be kinder to him? He actually had classes to attend at this time. Li Shuai showed a horrified face: "Ah! Then what are we waiting for? Go back to class quickly. I don't want to fail the course. I'm still counting on these few credits to get by."
Several people hurried and finally stepped into the classroom a few minutes before the teacher entered the classroom. Chu Jie looked at the two people in front of him who were panting, and was a little confused. He smiled and said, "Where have you two been?"
Li Shuai blurted out without thinking: "Exercise."
Chu Jie rolled his eyes at Li Shuai.
Li Xiang came to the classroom with his books and clapped his hands. "Classmates, today we are going to study the same topic as last time. Who would like to actively participate?"
Because Li Xiujun ran too fast and had not yet recovered, she sat down and fanned the air around her with her hands, trying to use this method to lower her body temperature.
No one in the audience responded. Li Xiang sighed, but the smile on his face didn't fade away. "It seems that the students are not interested in the topic I left for last class."
Li Xiang stood on the podium, as if it was his own one-man show, and the audience was the same as usual.
"In that case, does anyone want to talk about something related to archaeology? I can chat with you." Li Xiang pursed his lips.
Li Shuai noticed that the atmosphere was not right. Subconsciously, he looked at the classmates around him and found that they were all doing their own things and did not listen to Li Xiang's words at all.
Li Shuai couldn't help but sigh: "I have to say, Professor Li's job is really difficult. If I stood on the podium and the students ignored me, I would definitely die of grief and pain."
Chu Jie rolled his eyes at Li Shuai, "You? I feel like I'm on the podium and students can't even interrupt me."
"Look at you, what do you mean?" Li Shuai said argumentatively.
"Okay, both of you stop talking and listen to Professor Li." Li Xiujun reminded.
Li Xiang had already noticed that his class had become like this. Even in the office, many teachers were discussing this situation.
But those teachers think that it is enough to stay in this school until retirement. No matter whether the students learn or not, their knowledge has been passed on.
Li Xiang also had such thoughts before, but every time he stood on the podium, he felt it was so sacred and he could not let his original intention down.
Li Xiang sighed and patted the table lightly, signaling his classmates to look in his direction.
"Classmates, in today's class, we won't be learning about professional subjects. Let's just talk about life."
Next, Li Xiang called out the names one by one. After he finished, he couldn't help but sneer: "Look at yourself, is this enough? There are seventy people on the list above. I won't say anything, but look at how many are here now? When I called the names, not a single one was missing. Do you think I'm blind?"
Li Shuai was shocked by Li Xiang's aura. He sighed, "I never expected this. Professor Li is really angry this time. It's terrifying."
Li Xiang adjusted his glasses. "I don't know what you're thinking right now. When I saw the classroom was empty but seventy people showed up, I felt so cold inside. And when I saw that even the students who showed up were sleeping, playing with their phones, or doing other things, how did I feel?"
Li Xiang didn't know what his mood was today, and he inexplicably wanted to say this to them: "I don't know what your original intention was, and I don't know if you guys are persisting."
A sleeping boy opened his eyes blearily and after listening to Li Xiang's story for a few minutes, he sneered, as if he had heard a joke. "Professor, we're all in college now. What you said is only useful to those middle and high school students, not to us. You should take a break."
Li Xiang had prepared himself mentally when he said those words just now. He smiled faintly and understood what the boy meant.
"As for the student who just spoke, I would like to ask you, what are your future aspirations?"
The classmate smiled and nodded slightly. After all, he had not originally planned to say so much. Since Li Xiang said so, he would just speak frankly.
"Professor Li, let me tell you this. I'm not the only one who thinks this way. I believe many of my classmates share the same sentiment. Archaeology is the least popular major. We all think it's easy to get into, but it's not what you call a passion. All we can do now is to avoid failing the course and change majors, that's all."
When the boy finished speaking, there was warm applause in the class, and Li Xiang was stunned.
He hadn't expected today's kids to have such rich ideas. "You're all too naive. Do you really see archaeology as a springboard? Besides, you know the competition in this field is fierce, so what's your reason for changing majors? As long as everyone has the same idea, things won't be that simple."
Li Xiang looked at the students below who were talking incoherently and shook his head helplessly. He knew that these children did not hear what he just said.
Li Xiang sighed, thinking back to when they were studying, things were completely different. But looking at now, it seemed like the times had changed dramatically.
"I don't know, many of my classmates don't understand why I said so much today. Here, I just want to tell my classmates that I love the profession of archaeology very much, so I want to use my interest to inspire more students to learn archaeology, so I said so much to you here." Li Xiang spoke out his true feelings.
But the students in the audience were all a little confused when they heard Li Xiang's explanation: "Teacher, are we not going to have the lecture anymore?"
Li Xiang pursed his lips and responded, "Yes, no lectures."
"Well, I've already signed in. Since I'm not giving lectures, there's no need for me to stay here. I'll leave first." He left after saying this.
