Chen Yuan didn't waste much class time. Handing out the papers and praising her two favorite students took less than fifteen minutes combined. After she'd finished her necessary humiliation, she quickly moved on to reviewing the papers.
He Qingtian said it well. Teacher Chen's lectures are truly excellent. He teaches at a moderate pace, with clear logic, making in-depth explanations easy to follow, and using examples to draw inferences about other situations. He also adjusts his pace based on feedback.
The first class in the morning was always the easiest time to feel sleepy, but Shen Anyan noticed that most of the people around him were listening very attentively. Occasionally, a few people would try to doze off, but they would either drink a sip of water or rub their faces. If that didn't work, they would stand at the back with their papers and listen to the class. Anyway, he always had to force himself to wake up.
Although Shen Anyan scored full marks in the exam, he also listened carefully with everyone else and copied the teacher's blackboard writing neatly on the test paper.
When the bell rang, Teacher Chen had just finished explaining the multiple-choice questions and the first two big questions. She sighed, a little regretfully: "There are only three left..."
The student in the front row said with a smile: "It's okay, teacher, please continue."
Teacher Chen smiled and said, "No, no, I won't delay your rest time. Okay, students, get out of class is over."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone relaxed. Most people closed their eyes and fell asleep on the table, while the rest either went to get water or go to the toilet.
A classmate whispered, "Teacher, why don't you just take over the next history class?"
Teacher Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Nonsense! I don't even take up PE class. Besides, history is a regular class, so why not pay attention?"
The student sighed sadly: "Teacher, you don't understand..."
As he was speaking, someone rushed in from the classroom door, muttering as he ran: "Do you want to know why our class just shouted——"
The person who came was Jiang Xiaosong. This time, she didn't keep anyone in suspense and announced directly: "Xiaoyan! You got a perfect score in English! Oh my god, that's amazing!"
With the impact of the perfect score in math, everyone was no longer so surprised. He Qingtian coughed, and Lin Yue winked at him vigorously.
Jiang Xiaosong was a little confused when he didn't get the expected reaction. Seeing this, he asked curiously: "What are you doing..."
"Jiang Xiaosong." Teacher Chen called out in a flat tone.
Jiang Xiaosong shuddered and turned away awkwardly.
Chen Yuan asked with a smile: "You look quite free?"
Jiang Xiaosong tried to argue: "Teacher, I'm not idle. I'm still thinking about correcting my math papers..."
Chen Yuan: "Oh? Really? That's quite a coincidence. Your class happens to have my class next week. Why don't you come to my office and revise it?"
Jiang Xiaosong hung his head as he was carried away by Teacher Chen. Before leaving, he gave the people behind him a look of agony.
Lin Yue and the others suppressed their laughter silently.
By the second history class, Shen Anyan finally understood why everyone was so secretive about this subject.
The teacher spent the entire class giving Shen Anyan a lecture filled with inspirational stories. From the reasons why they hadn't seized the opportunity to overtake during the holiday break to the new plans and prospects for the new semester, Shen Anyan nearly fell asleep.
He Qingtian next to him had already skillfully spread out the history book in the most conspicuous position, and hid the math test paper from the last class under the textbook. He took out loose-leaf paper to correct and organize his notes.
Shen Anyan looked around quietly and found that everyone around him was doing almost the same thing, but what they were doing was different. Some were reviewing new lessons, and some were doing homework for other subjects.
After class, Shen Anyan couldn't help but ask: "He...Is the history teacher always like this?"
He Qingtian curled his lips: "That's right, in a 40-minute class, he can chat like this for 30 minutes."
The classmate at the next table also joined in the rant: "I still can't figure out how Qin Shi Huang's construction of the Great Wall is related to our school's football meet."
Shen Anyan was a little confused: "Doesn't our school care?"
Normally, such an irresponsible teacher would be fine if it were put in a lower class. But their class was the top class, so it shouldn't be like this.
Lin Yue shrugged: "I guess it's related. Besides, it doesn't matter whether history is taught or not. I can learn it by myself anyway. As for the liberal arts, no matter how hard I try, I won't do too badly. Our school just turns a blind eye."
Shen Anyan didn't understand, but she was indeed shocked.

During the lunch break, Gu Cijiang was called to the office to get the answer sheet.
Wang Meixin is a geography teacher for two classes and also serves as the head teacher of Class 2. Unlike other teachers, she doesn't like to wait until class to hand out papers. She always hands them out immediately after marking them, so that students can correct their mistakes in advance.
Gu Cijiang was the class representative for this subject. Teacher Wang handed the sorted answer sheets to him and instructed: "The answer sheets for both classes are here. Please help give the answer sheets for Class 1 to the class representative for their class."
Gu Cijiang nodded and said okay.
"Oh, by the way." Wang Meixin suddenly thought of something and stopped Gu Cijiang who was about to leave.
"When you get to Class 1, call their class's feast over."
Gu Cijiang didn't ask any more questions. He indicated that he understood and walked out of the office.
As the door closed, a few words were faintly heard from inside.
Judging from the voice, it should be Teacher Jiang asking questions.
"Why are you calling her suddenly..."
"Let's talk about studying..."
"That child's family situation is a bit special, don't be too strict..."
Gu Cijiang didn't delay any longer and quickly closed the door.
But he was a little confused. Was the family situation special? Was it a feast they were talking about?
He first returned to the classroom to distribute the answer sheets, then took the remaining papers to Class 1. After handing them over to the class representative, he looked around and quickly found Shen Anyan sitting in the front row.
The other person was sleeping on the table. The half of his face that was exposed looked peaceful and tranquil, but also a little deserted, which made him very eye-catching among the crowd of students.
Gu Cijiang walked over and patted her shoulder gently.
Shen Anyan was a little drowsy from her sleep. When she half opened her eyes, she found Gu Cijiang across from her. She didn't react for a moment, thinking that she had just confirmed her relationship with him, so she naturally took his hand and rubbed it against her face affectionately.
"Sleep a little longer." she whispered.
Lin Yue happened to turn around and wanted to borrow something from the table behind her when she saw this scene. She widened her eyes, looked at Shen Anyan in disbelief, then looked at Gu Cijiang, and tried to explain in a low voice: "I, I, I... I didn't see anything, you guys continue, you guys continue."
As she spoke, she stood up from her seat and slipped out of the classroom, very aware that she was not a third wheel.
Gu Cijiang was speechless.
He subconsciously pulled his hand out of the other person's palm. Fortunately, Shen Anyan was sleeping this time and the grip was not strong enough, so he successfully pulled his hand out.
The palm of his hand felt a little hot, and Gu Cijiang's fingers curled up slightly.
Shen Anyan finally came to her senses. She looked around and finally realized that it was nine years ago, not the time before she traveled through time.
She smiled at Gu Cijiang and apologized softly, "I was confused just now. Sorry."
Gu Cijiang lowered his eyes, avoiding the other person's gaze.
I was confused in my sleep...and then I held his hand?
"...It's okay, Teacher Wang wants to see you."
Shen Anyan nodded and asked one more question: "Which teacher is Teacher Wang?"
She explained with a smile: "I just arrived and I'm not familiar with the teachers yet."
Gu Cijiang said: "It's the geography teacher. Her office is across from your homeroom teacher."
Shen Anyan thanked him and got up to go to the office.
————
"Enter."
As soon as Shen Anyan knocked on the door, someone answered from inside.
She pushed the door open and walked in.
She didn't need to look for him. Teacher Wang waved as soon as he saw him and reminded him, "Here, come over."
"Do you know why I asked you to come here?" Wang Meixin asked.
Shen Anyan thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Because I didn't do well in the exam?"
Although astronomy and geography overlap, geography doesn't always require astronomy. This course is also difficult to cram for quickly, so it's no surprise that she scored the worst.
Wang Meixin smiled: "It's not bad."
She found the grade ranking list and found Shen Anyan listed first. Without wasting time looking for it, Wang Meixin simply enlarged it and showed it to the other party.
"The rankings for each class haven't been printed out yet, so you can just look at it here. First in age, what a bright ranking, but we can't just look at the ranking, we have to look at other things as well."
Teacher Wang pointed at them one by one.
"Needless to say, you did well in Chinese, math, and English. You even got full marks in two of them. Politics was also good, ranking in the top ten in the grade. History was just so-so, and geography was your worst, barely passing the average score."
Shen Anyan nodded.
Teacher Wang said, "As the saying goes, the maximum a bucket can hold is determined by its shortest board. Geography is your weak point right now, so you must work harder on it. I know your situation, so I'm not blaming you for asking you to come this time. After all, getting a score of over 70 on your first exam is pretty good. What I want to say is that if you encounter something you don't know, you can always come and ask me. Don't be shy. Evening self-study is the longest, so you can even ask me for an entire evening. Do you understand?"
Shen Anyan felt warm in his heart and replied with a smile: "Okay, I understand. Thank you, teacher."
Teacher Wang smiled and nodded.
Teacher Jiang across from me cheerfully chimed in, "I think so too. Chinese isn't your weak point, but how come it's dragging down your scores in Chinese, math, and English? Whenever you have free time, come see me more often and help you with your lessons."
Teacher Wang joked, "Mr. Jiang, please don't steal my tutoring opportunity. A 120 in Chinese is pretty good."
Teacher Jiang smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I won't grab it."
Shen Anyan thanked the two teachers and passed by Teacher Chen's workstation when she left. The teacher even handed her a handful of snacks.
"Well, I don't need to make up for your studies, so I'll just give you some food." Chen Yuan said with a smile.
Shen Anyan also smiled and thanked him, then returned to the classroom with a handful of snacks.
Lin Yue, who had been out for a stroll, had returned and was excitedly telling He Qingtian something. Seeing the main character coming, she winked and teased, "Speak of the devil, and he'll appear. Hey, you and that one from Class 2... Oh my god, there's so much food! I want some too!"
Chen Anyan placed the snacks on the table and shared them with everyone around him. Among them, Lin Yue grabbed a huge handful without any hesitation, and He Qingtian even teased him for being a freeloader.
Lin Yue said: "I'm just greedy. I didn't plagiarize for nothing. Xiaoyan, I'll come back to school next week and bring you some milk tea!"
Shen Anyan smiled: "I know."
He Qingtian asked, "By the way, what's going on between you and Gu Cijiang from the next class? Are you two dating?"
Shen Anyan said: "No."
Lin Yue mimicked the question in a strange voice: "Oh, 'no', so you mean you want to talk but haven't done it yet?"
Shen Anyan readily admitted: "Yes."
Lin Yue shuddered and almost dropped his snacks on the ground.
"Oh my god! Really?"
Shen Anyan said: "What's so fake about this. But he's not yet an adult, so I don't plan to talk about it now. By the way, don't say anything nonsense, I don't want to affect his studies."
Lin Yue was about to make a joke, but the other party's reason of nourishing the stomach made him lose all interest in gossip.
After spending a long time with someone in a casual manner, it is easy to forget the fact that the person is already nineteen years old.
He Qingtian said, "As expected of an adult, you're mature. I was just about to remind you not to let your love life affect your studies, but now it seems I don't have to worry about it anymore."
Lin Yue said: "Really... Hey, you don't have to worry about talking nonsense. Qingtian and I are not the type of people who like to gossip... Oh, Qingtian, remember not to tell Jiang Xiaosong, that loudmouth, about this. She can't keep it to herself."
He Qingtian said helplessly: "I know, I know, don't I understand her?"
