Chapter 29: CH 13.1

Coming to See You! (1)

The comprehensive science exam took half a day, or about three hours, on the second day.

There weren’t any classes arranged for the afternoon. Every class’ teacher made the best use of the available time and sent out a set of test papers. The students sat honestly inside the classroom and immersed themselves in solving questions.

The sophomore teachers also marked the freshly taken exam papers in a tense atmosphere in the administration office.

The dean of the Grade Department sent the latest statistics to the work group: “Every class teacher, please take a look. Thirty-eight people applied for the physics competition class, thirty-two people for chemistry, and thirty people for biology. Underneath is the specific list of names. Everyone can see if there’s anyone who is overlooked.”

Old Jian glanced at the computer while marking papers. Upon seeing the name at the bottom, he heaved a sigh in his heart.

The group leader of the Grade Department looked at him meaningfully across two tables. “Teacher Jian, ah. Only two people in the entire grade applied for three competition classes. One was Qin Yuan from honours Class, and the other was from your class.”

A few teachers who were marking papers raised their heads in surprise. “What’s the matter?”

Someone looked at the computer with curiosity. “Aiyo, it was really Class 9 – Ruan Qingmu? Who is that?”

There was some sweat on Old Jian’s forehead. “Hahaha, this…..It’s a good thing for students to be self-motivated.”

The content taught in the competition class was extremely difficult, and the progress was accelerated. The focus wasn’t on the college entrance examination, but on students getting extra credits and recommendations independently.

They were afraid that the students would be afraid of the difficulties, so they had set the tone and especially encouraged students with good grades to apply. They had even explicitly announced that “they could get in so long as they applied.”

One of the objectives of the shifting class system’s reformation has initially been “the freedom to choose a class, and adjust at any time.” Now that a remedial student had indeed applied, could it be that they would be chased out?

Just as they were discussing this, someone knocked on the office door. A thin youth on crutches lazily leaned against the side of the door. “Reporting to the teacher; I’ve come.”

It was Ruan Qingmu.

Old Jian hurriedly beckoned him to enter and sit and mulled it over for a while.

“Teacher asked you here to ask you about this matter.”

He pointed at the class selection form in front; Ruan Qingmu’s impressive paper was on the top. There was an arrogant checkmark on the competition class in all three secondary subjects options.

Ruan Qingmu looked at it for a while. “Oh, my grades weren’t up to the standard and couldn’t get in? It’s okay. I only casually applied it.”

Old Jian hurriedly reassured him, “No, no, it’s good if you have this kind of determination. We definitely won’t reject any student with a high standard and strict requirement for themselves!”

This child had middling grades when he first entered the school. After a year, he has fallen into the bottom ranks. Now, he just gotten some motivation with incredible difficulty. Even if it were beyond his abilities, they would definitely cause him to have a setback.

“It’s a great thing if you can suddenly cheer up.” Old Jian excitedly patted his shoulder. “Teacher will definitely support you, but I also have a little suggestion if you are willing to listen to it.”

“Teacher, please say it.”

Old Jian sincerely advised, “After all, the progress in the competition class is a little difficult. I’m afraid it will be a bit strenuous for you if you suddenly dash to the competition class.”

Ruan Qingmu looked at him, his pair of dark eyes bright. “Ah, that’s right.”

“I think it’s better to apply for the advanced classes for all three subjects. Don’t you think it’s more reasonable?”

Ruan Qingmu honestly nodded. “En, it’s super reasonable.”

Old Jian’s spirits lifted. “Then just –”

Ruan Qingmu faintly smiled and interrupted him,. “However, I still want to go into the competition classes.”

Old Jian. “…..”

“Teacher, I feel I’ve wasted a year, and I’m very regretful. If I still don’t give myself a harsh and high-pressure environment, I’m afraid I will be ruined from now on.”

Ruan Qingmu sat straight and still. His gaze at the teacher was clear and honest and seemed to carry a bit of melancholy and disappointment. “Teacher, please give me a chance. I will work hard. I want to prove that I can also become someone like Student Qin Yuan.”

Old Jian, “…..”

The group of teachers with their ears perked up on the side, “…..”

This student was amazing. It couldn’t be that he had some kind of misunderstanding about people like Student Qin Yuan?

Old Jian almost couldn’t catch his breath, and he could only take a detour to save the country1 in another way. “It’s like this; I just found out that your Chinese score can be improved fully. Why don’t we focus on improving this one subject first?”

He pointed at the exam paper on the table. “Look, I’ve noticed an issue, and there was something weird about this score. Do you like Classical Chinese texts and poems?”

He got full marks for all Classical Chinese questions, but it was full of mistakes when he got into the modern parts. It was pretty obvious.

Footnote:

1 Take a detour to save the country: the original meaning is to use some roundabout methods instead of direct methods, and finally achieve the purpose of saving the country. Nowadays, it generally refers to a sense of ridicule.
