Kang Xue made a fool of herself at the welcome party. Not only did she get a negative score for her after-school assignment, but she also got Mike and Roger to fail.
Although Mike and Roger were cynical, they still valued their grades very much. Moreover, their grades had always been good, and they could be ranked in the top few places.
And this time, they were implicated by Kang Xue. This was also the first time they had failed an after-school mission.
But Kang Xue didn’t have any intention of apologizing, which made Mike and Roger very angry, especially Roger. Because on the day of the welcoming party, Kang Xue made him embarrass himself in public, so he was even more angry.

So Roger found Kang Xue, threw his report card on her desk, and said angrily, “What are you going to do about this?”
Kang Xue looked up at him and said, “You and Mike just failed. I got a negative score.”
“You deserve a negative score! But what’s wrong with Mike and me?” Roger said loudly.
“What’s wrong with you? Didn’t you fall down because you couldn’t stand properly?” Kang Xue didn’t want to be outdone. She said, “I didn’t make you fall down. Why are you angry at me?”
Roger didn’t expect Kang Xue to be so unreasonable and didn’t have any other words to refute.
Seeing that Roger was still standing in front of her desk, Kang Xue was a little impatient and said, “Why aren’t you going back? Be careful that if Professor Karl sees you, he will think that you are bullying me.”
As they were talking, Professor Karl walked in from outside the door.
Roger had to take his report card and return to his seat.
Professor Karl said, “The last musical, Jiang Yu and Bessie finished very well, which was really out of my expectations. I’ve been in the industry for so many years, and this is the first time I’ve seen such an excellent piano musical.”
He said a lot of praise for Jiang Yu and Bessie, but he didn’t mention Kang Xue and the other two.
This made Kang Xue very uncomfortable.
But she didn’t want to lose her temper, so she could only listen to Professor Karl quietly.
Professor Karl released a new after-class task, which was to create a song for the rest of the month.
It had to be original, and there had to be at least two songs. And the style of these two songs had to be in contrast.
This was a one-person after-class task, so they could not form a team.
After Professor Karl issued the task, he said, “Do you have any questions?”
No one said anything, so Professor Karl said “Class dismissed” and left the classroom.
Bessie leaned on the table and said, “Why do you have to compose your own piece so soon? Professor Karl hasn’t taught us anything!”
Jiang Yu comforted her and said, “That’s good too. Try it yourself first and you’ll know your shortcomings. Professor Karl will be able to guide you better to address these shortcomings.”
“You really know how to say nice things.” Kang Xue sneered and said, “What’s so difficult about composing an original piece? You’re already in the elite class. Don’t tell me you don’t even know how to compose an original piece?”
Bessie stood up and said, “Kang Xue, what are you talking about!”
“What did I say? I’m telling the truth.”Kang Xue shrugged and said, “I don’t have time to chat with you guys. There’s a concert in a few days. I still have to go to the concert.”
“You still have time to go to the concert?” Bessie was puzzled and said, “Do you think an original song is easy?”
“Is it difficult? When I was in school, I could create an original piece in a few days,” Kang Xue said disdainfully.
“Huh?” Bessie was shocked and didn’t believe it.
But Kang Xue had already packed her things and left.
She seemed to have full confidence in this after-school mission.
Mike walked in front of Bessie and stuttered for a long time before saying, “I’m sorry.”
Bessie was very surprised and asked, “What are you sorry for?”
Mike said, “I’ve been following Kang Xue and said something disrespectful to you. I’m really sorry.”

“It’s not disrespectful, right? After all, we were childhood friends. I know better than anyone what kind of person you are,” Bessie said helplessly as she spread out her hands.
Mike knew that Bessie was saying this because she was still angry. However, he had never coaxed a girl before. The longest girlfriend he had dated before was only for a month. They had never had any arguments at all.
He looked at Jiang Yu for help, but Jiang Yu left with the book in her hands.
