Chapter 5



During the lunch break, the classmates went to the cafeteria to eat one after another. They talked about how the dishes made by the new five-star chef were very much to their liking, and they were also hesitating whether to have pasta or steak.

The international class had a separate window in the cafeteria, and most of the dishes were Western dishes. After all, they would live abroad in the future, and they should adapt in advance.

In addition, they also talked loudly about the schools they were applying for without hesitation. Each of them was a well-known school abroad, and they seemed to be particularly loud when passing by Lin Xu.

Lin Xu was tidying up his desk slowly, intending to go to the head teacher's office to explain the situation after clearing it.

After a while, he was the only one left in the class. The spring breeze was very light, and the leaves outside the window were rustling.

"Student, are you free now?" A woman in her twenties, dressed lightly and neatly, knocked on the door and looked into the classroom.

Only Lin Xu was there.

Lin Xu had almost finished packing. He put his backpack on the table, stood up and asked briefly, "What can I do for you?" His voice was cold and clean.

Perhaps the female reporter did not expect the student she met to be so outstanding in appearance. In addition, Lin Xu had a slender figure and did not look childish like a high school student. Instead, she was reminded of Bai Yueguang, whom she had a crush on when she was a student. She was a little embarrassed.

"I'm from the publicity department of our school. I want to come and interview the students in our international class. Can you accept the interview?" But she didn't pay attention to the time, so she came at a bad time. Now everyone had left, and she didn't know if the students she had contacted in advance had forgotten.

"Yeah." Lin Xu wasn't sure if he was still in the international class, but he glanced around the class and saw no one else.

The female reporter came closer to Lin Xu's desk, her head barely touching his shoulder, and she even had to look up to talk to him.

She relaxed herself and joked, "Now our male classmates are so tall, is there any secret?"

Lin Xu was not good at joking, so he thought for a moment and said, "Just eat a balanced diet for three meals a day." After saying that, he looked at the reporter seriously, his hand on his backpack, and although he was a little anxious, he didn't urge her.

The female reporter looked at Lin Xu's hand movements and asked a little embarrassedly: "Did I delay your time?"

After hearing this, Lin Xu subconsciously loosened his hand and spoke briefly: "No, you can sit down first, I'm not in a hurry." After that, he sat down too, so that the other party didn't have to look up at him.

The female reporter just felt that this male classmate was really a gentleman, and she relaxed a lot. She couldn't help but stare at him.

"Classmate, since you are in the third year of high school, your English level is not very high?" She started to get to the point.

Lin Xu was neither arrogant nor self-deprecating, and said in a normal tone: "It's okay."

The female reporter didn't expect that the other party would only answer this sentence after she asked a question. He was really taciturn.

"Then can I ask you a more professional question? What do you think are the basic requirements for learning international business administration?"

The original owner originally applied for this major, and Lin Xu majored in biology in his previous life. However, due to the intersection of subject applications, he actually dabbled in economics and business administration.

This question is actually quite simple. Lin Xu answered slowly in English: "Students should master relevant theories such as modern international business administration, management, economics, etc..."

He didn't know how detailed the other party wanted him to answer. After all, this question was relatively broad, so he spent a little time to explain the key thinking framework.

The female reporter went from focusing on his face to being completely surprised. In fact, when Lin Xu spoke his first very standard English, she felt that he was very impressive.

"Okay, I roughly understand. May I ask if you have good grades in the class? Do you feel like a top student?" She asked with a wink.

Lin Xu shook his head: "My classmates are better."

"Hahahaha, classmate, you are too modest." The female reporter stopped filming and gave Lin Xu an OK gesture.

Lin Xu understood enough, so he put on his backpack and asked politely before leaving: "Would you like to go together?"

After the female reporter smiled and waved to him, Lin Xu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, strode out of the class, and walked straight to the head teacher's office.

Their class teacher had just finished his meal at this time. After hearing the knock on the door, he let Lin Xu in. When he saw it was him, he was actually a little surprised.

Lin Xu had always been a marginal student, not active in class, and it would have been impossible for him to take the initiative to come to him in the past.

But he didn't need to worry about the future of these young men and women, because he didn't have to worry about it anyway.

"Lin Xu, what do you want to talk to the teacher about, Lin Xu?" The class teacher clasped his hands slightly and asked him in a very nice manner.

Lin Xu stated his purpose and explained that he planned to transfer to another class to take the college entrance examination.

The class teacher was even more surprised. It was not easy to take this step, not to mention that Lin Xu had been receiving education in the international class, and he couldn't apply to a school. If he really went to a regular class, would he be able to get into college this year?

"Student Lin Xu, did you make this decision after discussing it with your parents?" The head teacher took a sip of tea and asked again.

If his parents agreed, he would have no objection.

"I will discuss it with them when I go back, and my family should agree." Lin Xu lowered his eyes and said calmly.

After all, the original owner's family conditions were average. Every time his father called him, he would say how hard it was to sell the house, so he asked him to study hard, but in fact, they didn't have to work so hard to send him to study abroad.

This time, Lin Xu himself also wanted to study in a school in his own country. It is estimated that he will still go the same way as before. After all, he really can't sell the house...

"Okay, then I will communicate with your father later, and I will contact the new class for you." The head teacher said with a smile.

Lin Xu nodded, and after a quick lunch in the cafeteria, the results came out. The head teacher asked him to report to Class 9 of Senior 3.

Since he had always been treated favorably in his previous life, Lin Xu did not doubt the reason why the head teacher was polite to him. He just thought that the head teacher was very conscientious.

The atmosphere in the new class was much more lively. When Lin Xu entered the new class with his backpack, the fights in the class paused for a second. Looking at Lin Xu wearing the unique uniform of the international class, the classmates were stunned for a moment.

In everyone's impression, the international class means being rich, not to mention that Lin Xu also looks like the male protagonist of a youth drama in a comic. Everyone is very curious about him, but they dare not approach him to talk to him.

After the new head teacher, Mr. Wang, introduced and welcomed him, Lin Xu walked straight to his seat holding his sling.

He roughly knew that the grades of this class would not be very good. The atmosphere was too lively, the students were also very active, and his criminal record meant that he would not be able to be placed in the fast class.

However, Lin Xu was not dissatisfied at all. Instead, he was willing to adapt. Although he did not like noisy environments in the past, he could now begin to understand his lively and energetic classmates. It might be because someone he was close to was also of this type. Even though it was just a game, this was indeed Lin Xu's first love.

Of course, Lin Xu still did not take the initiative to talk to anyone. He really had nothing to talk about. He just started to familiarize himself with the textbooks for the first year of high school.

In a short period of time, his gossipy classmates had already found out where this new classmate came from.

He was a poor student in the international class, his family background was just average, and his reputation was not very good. He seemed to be the kind of student who loved to skip classes and slack off.

Logically, the halo should have disappeared, but they felt that Lin Xu did not look like that kind of student. He sat quietly by the window, but he always attracted everyone's attention. Everyone wanted to get close to him and make friends with him, but no one dared to go forward, as if that would disturb him.

Moreover, he was reading seriously all afternoon, and they were embarrassed to make a noise, so they also began to pretend to read, but their eyes were still on him from time to time.

In this world where sexual orientation is not a problem at all, half of the class looked at Lin Xu were girls, and the other half were boys. The other's temperament was too inviolable.

The first class in the afternoon was physical education class, which was always a class for them to relax, so the boys made an appointment to play ball together.

Lin Xu just put down other textbooks before class, took a quick look at his phone, and found that a quarrel had actually started in the group.

The protagonist was Gu Jinzhi, with whom he had a close relationship. They were fighting against all parties with their own strength, and the battle was passionate.

The first thing Lin Xu thought of was that the other party was probably going to quarrel again in the afternoon class.

He frowned, and it was difficult for him to divert his attention to look at the ins and outs of the matter. He found that it was not Gu Jinzhi's fault, although the other party's words were indeed unpleasant.

Moreover, Gu Jinzhi seemed to be very unpopular in the group. At this moment, he was vaguely besieged by everyone and it was a bit beyond his ability.

What they said about Gu Jinzhi was very unpleasant, as if they took advantage of the fact that there was no one behind Gu Jinzhi. If he pretended not to see it now, it would be too unfair to Gu Jinzhi.

He thought of Gu Jinzhi in the book as a silly cannon fodder with a bad temper. He just turned off his phone for an afternoon, and she would squat in the toilet for an afternoon to bombard him with phone calls, just like a child.

Now she must be very angry.

Although Lin Xu did not have that kind of feelings for him, he knew the ending of Gu Jinzhi's cannon fodder and became a laughing stock in the eyes of everyone. He sighed in his heart. Now Gu Jinzhi is still his object, Lin Xu's heart will naturally lean towards him.

The bell rang, and the classmates began to walk to the playground. In a hurry, Lin Xu hurriedly took his mobile phone secretly.

Generally, physical education classes start with two warm-up laps, followed by free activities.

Although Lin Xu was a little worried, he still followed and ran two laps obediently. He counted down silently in his heart. When he was about to finish the warm-up, he went to see how things were going.

After finally finishing the run, Lin Xu's face showed a little joy, and his fingers began to slowly touch his trouser pockets.

Who knew that today the physical education teacher wanted everyone to exercise more, so he didn't dismiss the class directly, but let the students rest for two minutes first, and then divide into two groups to choose to play basketball or volleyball. In short, they were not allowed to go back to the classroom.

Lin Xu pursed his lips, his eyes were a little helpless, but he had something important to do now.

Gu Jinzhi would be bullied if she was alone.

The male classmates around him were hesitant to invite Lin Xu to play basketball, but Lin Xu paced back and forth for a while with his eyebrows lowered.

Finally, as if he had overcome some psychological barriers, he walked to the physical education teacher with embarrassment and lied awkwardly: "Teacher, my stomach is a little uncomfortable and I want to go to the toilet."

The physical education teacher was not familiar with this new classmate, but Lin Xu had a face that would not lie, and he was obviously a good student. Not to mention that his expression was indeed solemn, as if he had endured the discomfort, and the physical education teacher soon believed him.

"Then go quickly. If you really feel uncomfortable, go to the school clinic. Do you want me to ask a classmate to accompany you?"

As soon as the physical education teacher said this, some classmates looked over and hesitated.

Lin Xu shook his head and refused: "Don't bother my classmates, I can go by myself." After saying that, he left the playground a little anxiously, but even though he was anxious, his walking posture was very upright, and he was dignified in his bones.

This was the first time that Lin Xu lied to skip class, so that his ears were red and he was a little ashamed.

But as soon as he left the sight of the teacher and classmates, Lin Xu immediately found a secluded corner, pursed his lips and took out his mobile phone. His movements were unskilled and sneaky, and his eyes were glued to the phone.

The author has something to say:

Gu Jinzhi: One day... I also met a soft-hearted god.
