Chapter 27: Acting Cool is a Plot Requirement

  "Xiaoyi, I suddenly think Cheng A is quite good too." Pu Fang said to the school flower while looking at Cheng A on the podium.

  "Not bad, then go chase her!" The school flower teased.

  "I'm not going at all? It's not even my type, let alone someone else's crush!"

  "You're asking for trouble, there are so many people here and you're still talking nonsense." The school flower looked around at the perked up ears and gently patted Pu Fang's shoulder.

  "Hey, hey, hey! I was just talking about some people, didn't mention you, why are you so worked up? What if I was actually referring to Zhu Si?"

  "You want to fight?" The school beauty said with feigned anger.

  "Look at those two, they're a perfect match." Pu Fang pointed at Cheng A and Zhu Si standing together taking photos on the stage.

  The school flower stopped Da Pu's hand and looked at the two people on the podium with a dim gaze.

  "Maybe they are really in love, what am I then? Hehe, looking for trouble on my own..." Watching the two people chatting and laughing on stage, Yang Yi gave herself a reason to comfort herself.

  "Lao He, your class is doing great. The top 30 already took four spots. It's left my class with only one spot, and it's still at the back." Class teacher Chen Zhi looked at Glasses Brother with a face full of envy.

  "Haha, that's nothing. Our class ranked first among the top seven classes, with one student ranking first and four students in the top fifteen. Overall, our class also ranked first among all thirty classes. Look at how happy Tang Sheng (our class teacher) is!" Glasses Brother seemed not to be satisfied with this small achievement.

  "You're still not satisfied, right? The students in the seventh grade are all from the county experimental primary school's top class, and every family is well-off. I heard that even the poorest one has a house in the county town. Can such a family condition not cultivate good students? Born with food and clothing without worry, unlike our students who are all from mountain villages, the worst families have just solved their food and clothing problems, these students not only need to study but also help their families with farm work, it's not easy." Chen Zhi had a sympathetic expression, somewhat like Tang Seng.

  "Come on, Chen Zhi! Weren't we both from rural areas? What's wrong with being from a rural area? With hard work, can't we buy a house in the county town too?" Glasses Brother looked down on Chen Zhi's pretentious behavior.

  "To be honest, I quite like that A-student in your class." Chen Zhi said, stroking his chin and turning to Glasses beside him.

  "Do you like him? You're not a woman, are you? And he doesn't have any good qualities, just a typical problem child." Glasses Brother ruthlessly shut him down. If Cheng A knew about Glasses Brother's evaluation of himself at this moment, he would...he would...he would curse his wife who hadn't even crossed the threshold yet to run off with someone else.

  "Haha, rebellion is nothing new, who hasn't been through it? When I was in school, I even hit my teacher, now I'm a teacher myself, and only now can I deeply feel the difficulties of being a teacher."

  "Did you hit the teacher?" Glasses Brother looked at Chen Zhi's short and chubby body with a suspicious expression.

  "What's wrong, discriminating against my height? Or do you want to compare who can fight? You're tall because of osteoporosis, while we may be a bit short, but being compact is the essence! Isn't that what your classmate A is a great example of?"

  "......" The glasses guy looked at him and was speechless for a moment, he had almost shrunk to below his shoulders, this is what they call "shrinking a bit"...

  "Next semester I must strive to get an A, it's so rare to meet a student like this, who makes teaching enjoyable for a lifetime." Chen Zhi's face showed determination.

  "Don't even think about it, you're not getting any!" Glasses brother didn't plan on giving him a chance.

  "What do you mean?" Chen Zhili suddenly blew up

  "You don't know he's from the arts faculty, leaning towards science?"

  "Uh...and this matter?"

  "Go through his files from primary school to junior high school, which exam did he not excel in liberal arts!"

  "What about science?" Chen Zhi asked persistently.

  "Basically unqualified!" Glasses brother directly ignored the hint of hope in his eyes.

  "...then he didn't do badly in any subject this time!" Chen Zhi flipped through the results of this semester's final exam.

  "It's just a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse!" Glasses Brother replied calmly.

  "Brother A, let me take a look. After reading books for so many years, I've never seen what an honor certificate looks like?" As soon as the school meeting ended, Little Chicken snatched the honor certificate from Cheng A, who hadn't even had time to hold it tightly.

  "...it's just a red book!" Zhuang B said with an air of pretentiousness.

  "Your sister... is the marriage certificate also red?!" Lao Biao suddenly appeared from a corner, said this sentence and then smiled foolishly at Cheng A.

  "How did you know?" Cheng A asked with a hint of curiosity, looking at his sly smile.

  "Your uncle and aunt are just red...". The old table deliberately emphasized the words "uncle and aunt", as if reminding the other party that 'we are old tables, although I slipped away very unrighteously just now, but you can't hold a grudge'.

  Forget it, considering he often lent his shoulder for me to peek at others taking baths when I was little...

  "Where are we going now?" Lao Biao asked a very silly question.

  "Of course I'm going back to pick up my laundry and spend Sunday at home." Cheng A glared at him with a bad attitude.

  "Oh! Right! Today is Friday." The old brother suddenly realized

  "Wait for me, A-ge!" Li Lin yelled from behind, holding two cups of milk tea.

  "Here, A Ge your." Li Lin quickly handed over two cups of milk tea to Cheng A.

  "What about us?" The little chick looked up at Li Lin with pleading eyes.

  "This is gone, and it's what I used to buy my fare back home."

  "What about you going home?" Cheng A asked while holding a milk tea.

  "It's okay! Look, there are many people walking on the mountain behind us. I've decided to hike back home too, just think of it as exercise." Li Lin gazed longingly at the children hiking back home over the mountains.

  "You deserve to walk, don't give us money." The little chicken looked indignant.

  "I asked Brother A, why were you standing on the podium all day looking so sloppy? Don't you know that receiving an award is a happy thing? It requires a smiling face, do you know? Smiling face!" The little chicken was studying the certificate back and forth while constantly nagging him.

  "Hey, old buddy, why are you so calm today? I thought you'd be too afraid to go on stage?" Old buddy, which pot doesn't open, mention which pot.

  He shot him a fierce glare and Old Brother immediately shut up.

  "Yeah, A Ge tell us why you're so showy?" Zhuang B also looked curious.

  "What's wrong?" Seeing him stop in his tracks, everyone was curious.

  "Why is it so messy? Actually, it's just..."

  "What is it?" The crowd waited with bated breath

  "The plot is needed."

  "Pfft..." The milk tea and tapioca pearls in Li Lin's mouth sprayed out together before she could even swallow.
