Chapter 34
Lu Miao raised her eyebrows and looked at him. ” Then, what do you think I was doing? ”
“I thought you were just putting on an act.”
Shen Muhan scratched his head in embarrassment.
” Ah, our boss is such a genius, yet still works so hard, studying and doing problems every moment. I also want to learn from our boss and beat the experimental class! ”
Shen Muhan shouted and quickly returned to his seat, taking out his textbook and exercises to start working.
” Yes, comrades, charge! Learn from Boss and beat the experimental class! ”
Sus Mo raised her arms and shouted.
“Beat the experimental class!”
Everyone in the class cheered excitedly. One by one, they quickly returned to their seats, took out their textbooks and exercises, and began to study diligently.
Hence, when Li Sihai arrived at the classroom and pushed open the classroom door, he was stunned to see a group of students working hard to solve the questions.
He couldn’t believe that these students, who had always loved playing, suddenly became so passionate about studying. He suspected that they might be up to something.
He walked around the class suspiciously. After making sure that everyone was really studying, he walked toward Lu Miao with a smile.
He called her out of the classroom and asked with concern, ” Lu Miao, can you see the blackboard clearly from the last row? Do you need to adjust the position in front?”
“No, thank you.”
Lu Miao looked up at him. ” Is there anything else? ”
Li Si Hai was about to say a few more words to get closer to her.
But then, a cheerful female voice came from the other end of the hallway,”Isn’t this Student Lu Miao? I have something to talk to you about. ”
Li SiHai turned around and saw that it was Shen Meng, the homeroom teacher of the Year Three Experimental Class.
His expression instantly turned ugly. Needless to say, she was definitely here to snatch her away.
He quietly moved his feet in front of Lu Miao, shielding her behind him.
With a fake smile, he asked, ” Why is Teacher Shen looking for my student instead of returning to the experimental class? ”
As he spoke, he emphasized the words ‘my student’, emphasizing that Lu Miao was from their Year Three Class 1.
Shen Meng smiled and said, ” You’re too polite, Teacher Li. We’re all students from Zhenhai High School. There’s no need to differentiate between my student and yours ”
Li Sihai couldn’t help but want to curse in his heart. Usually, when they were fighting for the school’s resources, they were all ruthless. They wanted to snatch all the good resources for their own classes. Now she’s acting like they belong to one big family.
“Hehe, Teacher Shen is right. Since we’re a family, why don’t you give our class a few spots in the Triwizard Tournament next month against Fengcheng High School and Jiangcheng Experimental High School?”
Zhenhai High School, Fengcheng High School, and Jiangcheng Experimental High School were the top three schools in the country.
Every year, they had to fight to the death for student resources, educational resources, and the enrollment rate.
Every school wanted to trample the other two under their feet and take the position of the country’s number one high school.
After a discussion, the three schools decided to hold the Triwizard Tournament starting this year. It would be held every three years, and each school would choose five contestants from each grade to participate.
The top three winners of the competition would be guaranteed entry to Tsinghua University or Peking University.
This is the first time the competition has been held, and each school is extremely determined to come out on top and outperform the other two schools.
As the experimental class has the best grades in the school, the principal has entrusted the selection of candidates to the homeroom teacher of the experimental class.
The smile on Shen Meng’s face deepened. ” Isn’t that why I’m here? ”
Li Sihai looked at her suspiciously. ” Did you suddenly have a conscience? ”
“Teacher Li, what are you talking about?”
Shen Meng smiled as she walked past him and said to Lu Miao, ” Lu Miao, the Triwizard Tournament is about to begin.
I now invite you to join our experimental class and participate in the competition with a few outstanding students in our class to win glory for the school.”
Li Sihai cursed loudly in his heart, realizing that Shen Meng had an ulterior motive all along.
Gritting his teeth, he said, ” Teacher Shen is trying to poach me right in front of me. That’s not very good, right?
Besides, no matter where Lu Miao is, the principal will let her participate in the competition.”
Shen Meng didn’t mind his sarcasm. She smiled and said, ” That’s true, but the contestants from other schools are also very outstanding geniuses.
To be on the safe side, I plan to gather all the participants for training.
Teacher Li doesn’t Lu Miao to miss out on her future just because she can’t participate in the training program in Class 1, do you?”
Then, she turned to Lu Miao. ” Lu Miao, what do you think? ”
If he were to refute Shen Meng’s words, it would seem like he was deliberately delaying her future.
However, it wasn’t easy for such a genius to appear in the class. He hadn’t even warmed up yet, and he was snatched away just like that. Naturally, he was extremely unwilling.
Li Si Hai’s face turned red and he could only turn to look at Lu Miao nervously.
In the classroom of Year Three Class 1, a group of students by the window secretly opened a small gap to listen to the commotion outside.
At this moment, they could not help but nervously wait for their boss’s reply.
“I’m not going. I’m not participating.” Lu Miao rejected him directly.
She had never liked to be high profile, and the Triwizard Tournament was bound to require all sorts of publicity.
The recommendation was meaningless to her.
Moreover, she was already used to being in year three class 1.
Shen Meng did not expect that Lu Miao would reject such a rare qualification and an attractive guaranteed entry so easily.
She was stunned. ” Lu Miao, do you want to reconsider? ”
Lu Miao replied without hesitation, ” No need, there’s no need. ”
In the classroom, a burst of cheers instantly sounded. Boss didn’t leave. That’s great!
Li Si Hai also beamed with joy. ” Teacher Li, you heard it. Student Lu Miao said that she’s not willing. ”
Although every student in Zhenhai High School was the best among their peers, Class One was indeed the weakest in the school.
In the past, Shen Meng was always the one who held her head high in front of him. This time, it was finally his turn to hold his head high.
Shen Meng’s brows were tightly knitted together. It was rare to see a student like her who could go to the experimental class but insisted on staying in the worst class.
Helplessly, she turned around and went to look for the principal.
Li Sihai’s face was full of pride. He raised his hand and patted Lu Miao’s shoulder affectionately. He said happily, ” I’ve long seen that you’re different from the other students. You’re outstanding and low-key.
In the future, if you need help in class, you can always look for the teacher.
Don’t worry, even if you’re in Year Three Class 1, I’ll definitely work hard for you to qualify for the Triwizard Tournament.”
The affectionate attitude he displayed towards Lu Miao now was completely different from the disgust he used to show every time he saw her.
It was as if he had amnesia, forgetting how he used to call Lu Miao a useless student who got into the school through money and how he used to belittle her academic performance. It was like it was someone else and not him.
When the people in the class heard his words, they could not help but show expressions of contempt.
