Chapter 109 - Being Targeted

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The Chinese teacher turned to the students who were sitting down.

“Class 10 students, although your grades aren’t good, you have to correct your attitude…”

Seeing that the teacher was going to continue lecturing them, Feng Tao raised his hand.

“Teacher, just now, our class teacher called Cheng Ling to her office.”

The Chinese teacher was interrupted and she was a little displeased.

She looked at Feng Tao.

“Was she really called by the class teacher? Or are you speaking up for her?”

At this time, Ding Yu also raised his hand, and he still had that lazy look on his face.

“Teacher, I can testify it. I went over with Cheng Ling just now.”

Ding Yu had already spoken, so the Chinese teacher had no choice but to let Cheng Ling go now.

“If that’s the case, then you can go back to your seat. Next time, pay attention to the time. Don’t be late again.”

Cheng Ling nodded her head without humbling herself nor showing disrespect.

“I understand, Teacher.”

Then she went back to her seat.

This Chinese class was not peaceful for Cheng Ling. Perhaps it was because the teacher was targeting her, she always came near to Cheng Ling. When she saw that Cheng Ling was not listening to the class, she knocked on her desk or patted her shoulder.

She frequently asked Cheng Ling to get up to answer questions.

Chinese was considered Cheng Ling’s weak subject.

She did not understand how they could interpret so many meanings of the author from an article. Did the author know about this?

However, Cheng Ling’s attitude was still peaceful and good throughout the entire class until the end.

“Cheng Ling, I see that you have a fiery temper. Why were you so obedient when you were in the Chinese class just now?”

Cheng Ling closed the Chinese textbook and stuffed it into the drawer as she replied, “I would just bear with the people or things that don’t matter to me. There’s no need to make a big deal out of it.”

Making a big deal out of it would only make Grandma worry.

The teachers here liked to call their parents over as they wished. Compared to troubling Xie Ying, Cheng Ling decided to bear with it for a while.

Ding Yu supported his head with his hand and looked at Cheng Ling sideways.

“Your personality is quite strange. By the way, why did the class teacher call you to the office just now?”

Ding Yu and Cheng Ling could be said to have gotten to know each other by fighting. Now, the two of them could get along peacefully.

Cheng Ling took out the folded paper from the pocket of the school uniform and handed it to Ding Yu.

Ding Yu opened it and had a quick look.

“School anniversary celebration host? What do you mean? The class teacher wants you to be the host?”

If it were anyone else, they might not understand the reason for it. But Ding Yu was sharing the desk with Cheng Ling. He knew that Cheng Ling’s ability was definitely not limited to the way she acted.

“But a school anniversary celebration host… is too eye-catching and fancy.”

Ding Yu returned the piece of paper to Cheng Ling.

This kind of host was required to rehearse every day and had to wear heavy makeup. It was unlucky to be selected.

Initially, Cheng Ling didn’t want to tell. However, after hearing what Ding Yu had said, she decided to drag Ding Yu into this mess.

“Teacher Chen seemed to say that she needs an English male host. She’s considering you.”

“Considering me? No way!”

“I’m not going to do it! Standing on the stage and saying those unnatural things.”

Cheng Ling shrugged and leaned on the desk to catch up some sleep.

The Chinese class just now really made her sleepy. This Chinese teacher’s voice was like a lullaby. Cheng Ling felt that if she didn’t become a Chinese teacher and helped others with insomnia instead, she would probably earn a lot of money.

In less than half a day, the video of Cheng Ling and Ding Yu reading English had already spread like wildfire on the school forum.

Hundreds of new comments appeared every second.

“Is the person really Cheng Ling?”

“This English is dubbing, right? How can someone like Cheng Ling, who is always at the bottom, read it so well? Moreover, there are many new vocabs in it.”

“Young Master Ding is so handsome. He is so charming when he reads English.”

“So this is Cheng Ling. She looks so beautiful. She has delicate features and a good temperament.”

Everyone was discussing this video fervently. They were both praising and criticizing Cheng Ling.

Of course, Cheng Ling didn’t know about all this in the meantime.

After class, she got on her bicycle and went home.

There was a batch of Tian Qi that she could collect today. She had to go back earlier to collect them.

When she passed by the Cheng family’s house, Cheng Ling saw a car parked at the door. The license plate number was very unfamiliar, so it should not be the Cheng family’s car.

After she parked the bicycle, she entered the house and found that Xie Ying was not the only person in the living room. There was also a person who was about the same age as Xie Ying sitting next to her. Cheng Ling recognized that this old lady was called Qi Min..
