Chapter 14 Sheng Jia couldn’t break free, so she simply stopped trying.
In less than half a day, Class One and Class Two had negotiated a competition plan for the entire year.
Although some teachers at Jingjiang No. 1 High School were young and some were old, most were very open-minded, otherwise, they wouldn’t have produced so many open-minded and confident students.
When Sheng Jia and Su Zhaolin reported the negotiated agreements between the two classes to Teacher Liu Yidong and Teacher Fang, even Teacher Fang said with a smile, “I didn’t expect that when I’m getting old, I would have the experience of being fought over by students from two classes. If this were put in the novels you young girls like to read, it would at least be some kind of Mary Sue, right? Oh right, Mary Sue.”
Their agreement passed easily. Liu Yidong and Teacher Fang would be responsible for informing the other teachers about this matter, fully respecting the students’ own decisions. Anyway, if any problems arise later, they will be there to back them up.
After the agreement between Class One and Class Two was finalized, the effect was particularly significant. Before the first monthly exam even started, both sides fairly divided the Q&A time of the teachers of each subject. The tense atmosphere disappeared and instead became harmonious, even their taunts were a bit teasing.
The only victim in this matter was probably Sheng Jia herself.
Since this incident, the sense of distance between her and the students in Class One seemed to have been broken. Even if she still didn’t talk much, playful girls would occasionally come over to pat her on the shoulder and tease, “Class monitor, keep it up, you are the hope of our entire village!”
Sheng Jia: …
Class One was determined to fully surpass Class Two, and even more so wanted Sheng Jia to maintain her position as Grade/Year One.
Song Ji’an was secretly laughing in front of her every day.
After that experience with Xu Lijing, Sheng Jia and Song Ji’an’s relationship didn’t completely improve, but at least there were some subtle differences. Sheng Jia would accept the snacks that Song Ji’an gave her.
After Zhang Mingyue finished harassing Sheng Jia and returned to her seat with a smile, Song Ji’an handed her a milk candy.
Sheng Jia took it casually, tore open the wrapper, and put it in her mouth. The sweet milky flavor spread, reducing her initial helplessness and irritability a little.
“Sheng Jia, you look like an emoji now,” Song Ji’an said.
Hearing this, Sheng Jia raised her head and looked at her in confusion.
Song Ji’an took out her phone and showed her a picture, which was an exaggerated picture of a panda grabbing its ears, with the caption: “Heard it! Heard it! Heard it with both ears!”
Sheng Jia:?
Song Ji’an laughed out loud, “This is the first time I’ve seen you almost put the words ‘leave me alone’ on your forehead.”
Unfortunately, the effect wasn’t great. Sheng Jia didn’t realize that her aloofness had lost its effect. After the students in the class discovered that she wasn’t that unapproachable, the more they saw her grumpy face, the more they wanted to tease her.
The closer the monthly exam got, the more tense the atmosphere in the class became. Class One and Class Two’s emphasis on and anxiety about this monthly exam almost worried Liu Yidong and Teacher Fang. The main thing was that they were afraid of tiring the children out. This was also rare. Other teachers were racking their brains to get students to study, but the two of them were the opposite and needed to rack their brains to give them more rest time.
However, recently there was indeed a piece of news quietly spreading among the students, and it was a rare big scoop.
Most people had heard about the fight at Sanzhong a week ago. After all, students from various school districts had been attending school together since junior high school. Although most of them returned to their original districts after high school, their relationships with classmates were still there. It was normal for students throughout Jingjiang to know about a major event happening in the student community.
The original version was that a guy from Jingjiang No. 3 High School was particularly disgusting and spread rumors about a girl, and was knocked down by the other party with one punch, and it went to the Police Station. Now the girl’s side wants to sue him.
The boy was named and named, directly pointing to a specific person in Sanzhong, but who the girl was has never been determined. Song Yi, who witnessed everything and spread the word, deliberately concealed Xu Lijing’s name from her girlfriends.
Amidst various doubts, this gossip flew around like it had legs.
Some believed it and condemned it, while others didn’t believe it and instead scolded the girl for being emotionally unstable and that it was wrong to hit someone. This matter was raging for several days until two days before the monthly exam, when there was finally a specific punishment for the boy – expulsion from school on probation + a school-wide review of his mistakes.
And Xu Lijing publicly released her trial evidence and evidence that she had won the lawsuit. For so many years, including the spread of rumors that she was a delinquent who fought every day and had a messy private life, all of it was considered rumors.
She dared to say it and wasn’t afraid of others discussing it again. She wanted to nail this person to the pillar of shame. The boy even knelt on the ground and begged for her forgiveness in order to obtain her understanding. Xu Lijing only felt like laughing. She did soften her attitude, but that didn’t mean she was tolerant of the other party. The fact was that she didn’t want this person to be easily and completely expelled.
Expelled, gone, what’s the point? Staying in this most familiar environment, in an environment where everyone knows him, being looked down upon and pointed at is what this kind of person deserves.
In fact, most people in Jingjiang No. 1 High School who knew Xu Lijing knew that she wasn’t a bad person. Just because a girl doesn’t like to listen to lectures and skips classes doesn’t mean she’s a bad person. She was very brave, very loyal, and had a sense of justice. She had also helped many girls. Far more people spoke up for her than slandered her.
The only ones who were quite critical of this matter were probably the students in Class One and Class Two of Jingjiang No. 1 High School. Most of them regretted how this matter reached its climax before the monthly exam, making them unable to enjoy the gossip to their heart’s content, and they didn’t have time to scold people for Xu Lijing. By the time the monthly exam was over, the discussion of the matter would have subsided.
Sheng Jia and Song Ji’an, who had fully participated in and understood the whole matter, kept a low profile and then walked into the monthly exam hall in such a lively atmosphere.
Six subjects in two days. After the last subject, English, was over, many people from Class One eagerly came to ask Sheng Jia how she did. This monthly exam was more difficult than everyone had imagined, and they didn’t feel confident after the exam.
Sheng Jia’s expression didn’t change at all. When others asked, she only briefly replied, “I don’t know.”
When everyone had left after school, Song Ji’an finally found a chance to catch up with Sheng Jia from the crowd.
“Xu Lijing said she wants to treat us to dinner.” She walked side by side with Sheng Jia towards the school gate. This time, she didn’t give Sheng Jia a chance to refuse. Xu Lijing, who had already colluded with Song Ji’an and was waiting at the school gate, immediately walked to the other side of Sheng Jia when she saw the two of them, one on the left and one on the right, and took her away like they did at the beach.
Sheng Jia couldn’t break free, so she simply stopped trying.
Song Ji’an already knew Sheng Jia’s part-time job time and wouldn’t delay her, so the three of them quickly got into the Volkswagen parked aside.
Auntie Liu smiled when she saw the three of them, turned the car around in front of the school, and drove towards the city center.
