She didn't even care about He Jing's feelings and turned to He Jing, saying, "He Jing, since Yan Hanxi is willing to speak in your place, then let Yan Hanxi give the speech this time."
He Jing: "...Teacher, I can."
The homeroom teacher looked troubled: "He Jing, don't force yourself."
He Jing turned her head and stared at the homeroom teacher very seriously, and said, "Teacher, I won't force you."
She really doesn't force anyone.
Just now, someone had already stirred up her competitive spirit.
Why should she be replaced the moment he appears?
She wasn't going to accept his kindness.
The homeroom teacher didn't expect He Jing to be so persistent and suddenly felt very troubled. She was the one who called He Jing over first, and it would be unfair to replace He Jing right after she agreed. However, this speech was really important, and there would definitely be no problem if Yan Hanxi went on stage.
He glanced at He Jing, then at Yan Hanxi, clearly wavering between the two.
In the end, he gritted his teeth and decided to keep his promise and let He Jing go.
Anyway, this was a decision made unanimously by the academic affairs team, so if any problems arise, it won't have anything to do with him...
"Yan Hanxi, the teacher has already promised He Jing, so let's give this opportunity to He Jing."
Yan Hanxi shrugged, not minding at all, and called out to He Jing with a smile, "Let's go."
With only five minutes left before the flag-raising ceremony, there was really no need to stay any longer.
He Jing said to her homeroom teacher, "Teacher, I'm leaving."
After saying that, she went out with Yan Hanxi.
The two walked side by side down the corridor. He Jing glanced at Yan Hanxi's schoolbag and said, "You didn't even go back to the classroom, but followed me here?"
Yan Hanxi smiled calmly and said, "I heard that someone came to take responsibility because I'm in trouble. Is there a problem?"
He Jing: "...No."
She paused for a moment, then couldn't help but say sourly, "You're such a troublemaker."
The student representative was originally scheduled to be in the same class as Xu Bi. Apart from being instigated by Xu Bi, she really couldn't think of any other illness that would cause her to only develop symptoms ten minutes before the flag-raising ceremony.
Yan Hanxi's smile turned somewhat cold for some reason: "I will handle this matter."
He Jing couldn't help but say, "Your information network is really impressive. You should thank him for not acting up a minute before the flag-raising ceremony, otherwise, if I had been called up at the last minute, I'm afraid it would have really suited Xu Bi's wishes."
Yan Hanxi narrowed his eyes, and suddenly lowered his voice: "It's been a long time since anyone has done these kinds of little tricks under my nose."
He Jing sensed a hint of danger in his voice, frowned slightly, and reminded him, "You'd better not abuse your power or commit violence against your classmates. You've probably already experienced the taste of detention and know it all too well."
Are you showing concern for me?
"...You're overthinking it."
Yan Hanxi curled his thin lips: "I'm not listening, you're just concerned about me."
With such a terrible situation at hand, He Jing really wasn't in the mood for idle chatter. The loudspeaker and the bell rang at the same time, signaling it was time to assemble on the playground.
She had to mentally prepare for the journey ahead.
However, not long after leaving the office, she was subjected to the gazes of students from all grades and classes. Many people leaned down from upstairs to look at her, some with the intention of watching the spectacle.
He Jing disliked this kind of scene very much.
Wherever she went, she heard gossip, the gist of which was:
"A ten-minute impromptu speech in English, wow."
"It seems that being number one in the whole school isn't so easy. If I make a fool of myself this time, I'll not only be famous in Yin Gao, but also in several nearby schools."
"Senior Xu Bi is really ruthless. She made He Jing lose face by doing this. But then again, it makes sense, since she's so close to Brother Xi. Brother Xi belongs to everyone."
