Chapter 42

Tao Luanxi replied in his heart, I won’t!

The weather is not very good today. The sky outside is gloomy and brewing rain. Although it is already spring, the chill in the air is still almost like winter.

The physics teacher of Class A is named Zhao Jun. He is over 40 years old and has few hairs left on his head. He rushed to the office shivering in the cold wind wrapped in a coat. He was thinking of making a cup of hot tea to warm himself up and tidy up the few damaged hairs on his head.

"Teacher." Zhao Jun turned around and saw a handsome boy in the uniform of No. 1 Middle School standing behind him.

Of course Zhao Jun knew this student, one of the few good prospects of this class, with good grades and an obedient personality. Everyone who taught him liked him.

Zhao Jun nodded: "Tao Luanxi, what's the matter?"

Tao Luanxi looked normal: "I want to check the papers for the monthly exam this weekend."

The monthly exams at No. 1 Middle School are usually completed in the morning and the teachers will organize the marking in the afternoon. By the time the results are posted on the bulletin board on Monday, the papers of each class have already been handed over to the teachers of each subject. In order to explain the questions as quickly as possible, the teachers also hand out the papers before class. At most, the papers will naturally be in the hands of the students in one day. However, Tao Luanxi couldn't wait to come over and ask for it now. There must be some special reason.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem with the test paper?" Zhao Jun asked kindly. Teachers would always pay more attention to students like this.

"No, I just wanted to check the score."

Zhao Jun smiled: "Are you still worried about this? You don't even have the fortitude to do this after so many replies for the monthly exam?" Although he said this, Zhao Jun still took out a stack of papers from the drawer: "They are all here, arranged by grades, and you are second."

He knew that Tao Luanxi was not as good as Qiu Yi in physics. Qiu Yi had always been the top student in the grade in physics. This was why Zhao Jun protected Qiu Yi almost like his own son.

Tao Luanxi stared at Zhao Jun's gaze. Without looking for his own paper, he directly took out Qiu Yi's and checked each question carefully.

Zhao Jun was wondering, Tao Luanxi pointed to a place on the test paper as if he had found a treasure, raised his head and said to Zhao Jun: "Teacher, the formula for this question is wrong."

Zhao Jun was stunned and glanced down at the paper. He saw that cosα in the formula was mistakenly written as sinα. Coincidentally, the answers were the same and were considered correct when the papers were graded.

In this case, the most serious case is that the grading error should be deducted points, and in the least, it may be that Qiu Yi made a mistake in writing. Anyway, the answer is correct, and it is only a monthly exam, so he just found it like this. However, Tao Luanxi looked at Zhao Jun relentlessly, and in front of a room full of teachers, Zhao Jun felt a little embarrassed.

Zhang Jun smacked his lips a few times. He still wanted to protect his favorite student in his heart, so he didn't mention whether to change the score or not. He just asked, "Tao Luanxi, why did you suddenly remember to check Qiu Yi's paper?"

Ten minutes ago, Tao Luanxi was about to vomit blood when he saw that Qiu Yi's total score was only two points higher than his. He stayed up all night last night to write a love letter, and he had to send it out today no matter what! Tao Luanxi came to the teacher's office with the mood that he would fight even if there was still a glimmer of hope. As a result, he really saw an opportunity after checking. As long as Qiu Yi's two points were deducted, at least the two of them would still be tied for first place, and Tao Luanxi would still achieve his goal.

There was no way to talk to the teacher about this, so he remained silent for a long time. Zhao Jun understood everything and advised with the tone of an experienced person: "We are all classmates, there is no need to care about the results of a competition! We are all in the same class, and the real thing is to learn from each other, don't care too much about gains and losses. Qiu Yi's physics level is obvious to all, but his biology and English are not good enough. We should communicate more often and learn from each other's strengths and make up for each other's weaknesses. This is the serious thing."

This was as if Tao Luanxi was jealous that Qiu Yi scored higher than him. Tao Luanxi was angry. For the first time in school, he said sternly, "Teacher, I don't agree with what you said! Qiu Yi is good at physics, but that doesn't mean he won't make mistakes, and it doesn't mean that the questions he misjudged in the exam can be ignored. Although the monthly exam is just a small test, it must be fair and just. You usually teach us not to cheat in exams, but isn't it also cheating to know that it is a misjudgment and not correct it?"

These words left Zhao Jun speechless. The office door was open during working hours, and people coming and going were all students. Tao Luanxi's eloquent speech attracted many passing students to look inside.

Shen Tan pursed his lips and listened in silence for a long time. Seeing Zhao Jun's face turn red and white, Zhao Jun was dumbfounded by being ruthlessly criticized by such a well-known good student in front of so many people. Fearing that things would go badly for both sides, Shen Tan stood up to smooth things over.

"Let me see."

Shen Tan took the paper from Tao Luanxi and took a careful look at it. He then carefully checked the papers of other students. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Qiu Yi is indeed wrong here. According to the rules, he should be deducted points."

The head teacher had spoken, so Zhao Jun didn't know what to say. Shen Tan cleared his throat and said, "I've noticed that Qiu Yi's studies haven't been going well lately. I guess his heart has gone to the basketball team. I'd like to take this opportunity to give him a warning. What do you think, Mr. Zhao?"

Zhao Jun nodded awkwardly and walked down the steps Shen Tan gave him: "It's time to teach him a lesson, or he will forget what his job is."

Shen Tan raised his lips slightly, nodded, and patted Tao Luanxi on the shoulder: "Since everyone agrees, I will go to the Academic Affairs Office to change the grades later. No objections, right?"

Tao Luanxi shook her head, secretly happy that she had come to the right place this time. Before she could finish her happiness, a cool boy said behind her: "No."

Tao Luanxi felt a chill on her back. When she turned around, Qiu Yi was leaning against the door with a bag on his shoulder and a cold look on his face.

Shen Tan took the test paper and left. When he left, he gave Qiu Yi a meaningful look and reminded him in a low voice, "You have to take responsibility for your own mistakes. You can't blame others for pointing them out."

Qiu Yi glanced at him, his eyes like a cold knife. Yu Xituan left.

The bell for morning self-study had already rung. Tao Luanxi greeted several teachers and prepared to leave for the classroom. From beginning to end, Tao Luanxi kept looking up and staring into Qiu Yi's cold eyes.

“Does it feel good to confront the teacher?”

Tao Luanxi no longer had the excitement she had just now. She thought carefully for a while and said, "It's pretty cool."

Qiu Yi sneered from the bottom of his throat: "I never thought you would do this for that person."

After the first class, Shen Tan brought back news from the grade leader that Qiu Yi's physics paper was graded incorrectly, and his score dropped from a full 150 to 147, making him second place by one point.

Shen Tan stared at Qiu Yi meaningfully: "Deduct more points, and teach some people a lesson."

Perhaps Shen Tan himself was also very angry because Qiu Yi had been absent from class because of the basketball game some time ago, and he took this opportunity to settle his personal grudge and was feeling very proud of himself at the moment.

Tao Luanxi got a great advantage for no reason and was very happy, but others obviously didn't think so. Many people saw the scene in the office in the morning, and the word spread like wildfire. Everyone knew that Tao Luanxi argued with the teacher in the office for one or two points. Although Tao Luanxi got first place at this time, many people in Class A still looked at him strangely.

It's just one or two points, is it really that important?

Of course it is important. It has never been so important.

Tao Luanxi put one hand into her schoolbag and held a corner of the envelope, thinking about how to ask Qiu Yi out after school that afternoon.

But Qiu Yi never played by the rules. He only taught two classes in the afternoon and then disappeared. During the class, Tao Luanxi sent him several text messages but no one replied. Tao Luanxi was very anxious. They were about to get married but the bride disappeared. How could he not be anxious?

After finally getting through school, Tao Luanxi realized for the first time that Zhang Zhi was not there either, so she quickly grabbed Yan Hai's [sports committee member] hand and asked, "Where are Zhang Zhi and the others?"

"You don't know?" Yan Hai looked confused: "The basketball team is having a celebration banquet today, I guess they are eating now!"

Tao Luanxi felt cold in her heart. It was over. Qiu Yi had been teasing her recently because he had been thinking about confessing his love to her. Tao Luanxi had no chance to hear about this from him. Tao Luanxi grabbed her hair and sighed. I just wanted to confess my love, but why was it so difficult?

After much difficulty, he got Zhang Zhi's cell phone number from Yan Hai, and he dialed it several times before the call was connected. There was a lot of noise on the other end of the receiver, and Zhang Zhi had to shout several times before he could hear clearly who was calling.

"Qiu Yi? He seems to have gone out first."

"Where did you go?"

"I don't know, probably somewhere around here!"

"Where are you?"

“Lijiang Road, where people value water.”

Tao Luanxi was stunned. Isn't this near his home?

There was only one hour left before evening self-study. Tao Luanxi looked at the time on her phone and resolutely took out an envelope from her schoolbag.

Tao Luanxi had a firm look in her eyes and a clear goal. After getting off the subway, she headed straight for the park near her own community. If Qiu Yi was hanging around nearby, this was the most likely place he would come from.

Tao Luanxi ran panting as she passed the intersection where she met Qiu Yi by chance that night. From that day on, the relationship between the two began to become different.

Zhang Zhi called and said, "Did you find him? Qiu Yi just texted me and told me he was in Bishui Park."

"I'm right here."

Tao Luanxi gasped and swallowed. The wind outside was a little cold, making Tao Luanxi's chest ache. Passing a grove of apricot trees was a small fountain in the center of the park, where two young men and women were snuggling together.

Zhang Zhi was still chattering on the other end of the phone: "I'm calling Mo Xiahan to ask, she and Qiu Yi went out at the same time."

Tao Luanxi stood blankly beside the apricot tree. Before she could even catch her breath, her hands and feet were already cold.

"Stop fighting, they are together."

Tao Luanxi's hand holding the envelope tightened instantly. Ten meters in front of him, Mo Xiahan put one hand on Qiu Yi's shoulder. The two of them were very close, as if they were kissing.

The author has something to say: Qiu Yi: [Very loud] I’m not a scumbag! ! ! ! ! ! No kissing! ! ! ! ! ! I love my wife! ! ! ! ! Why is the dog keyboard broken here?

At this time, the knife in Qiu Yi's hand was only one centimeter away from my neck. I was scared.jpg
