Chapter 176: Rather Die Than Comply

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“All of you advised me to resubmit the Female Devil’s homework. Only she dared to question the truth in front of everyone. How were they going to deal with the disappearance of my homework? Whose responsibility was it? At that time, no teacher in the office dared to speak.”

Lu Qianling was very grateful that Meng Chuyuan could appear in time and understand what she wanted to say.

She felt that the teacher was evaluating the students based on their grades and felt that it was unfair. The teacher tried to cover up the problem by asking her to resubmit her homework, but Lu Qianling did not accept this resolution at all.

What Lu Qianling needed was to be treated fairly. Even if she was suspected of lying by the teacher at the beginning, as long as the teacher could explain in front of the entire class that she had misunderstood her, she would not make a scene in class.

Meng Meng said, “That’s true… I saw you submit it, but they didn’t help you find it.”

“Bias, of course. If I were to really resubmit my work, they would definitely think that I was really lying, and that the Female Devil was giving me an easy way out of the hole that I dug for myself.” It was precisely because Lu Qianling saw this point clearly that she would have rather died than to comply with the teacher’s request.

After Meng Meng heard what Lu Qianling said, she felt that it was very reasonable. She could not help but give her a thumbs up. “Impressive. If you didn’t mention it, I wouldn’t have thought of this. I didn’t expect the female devil to be so good at handling things.”

Lu Qianling snorted coldly and said in disdain, “What do you mean by good at handling things? That’s clearly scheming.”

She admitted that her studies were a little bad, but she would never allow her intelligence to be insulted by others.

However, she was not as smart as Meng Chuyuan, and her mentality was not stable enough. A few words could easily anger her.

At this moment, Meng Chuyuan was still sitting in the teacher’s office. A few teachers were preparing for class and marking homework.

Coincidentally, Lu Qianling’s form teacher did not have any classes to attend for the time being, so Meng Chuyuan chatted with her about Lu Qianling’s studies in school.

Their form teacher told her that Lu Qianling’s foundation was not bad, but she was just a little biased towards certain subjects. She was also like that in class.

When she was serious, she was very serious. When she did not want to listen to class, she would lie on the table during lessons.

She also liked to take leave from school. At first, she was perceived as a sickly student in the eyes of the teachers. Later on, through communicating with her parents, they found out that Lu Qianling was not sick at all. She just did not want to come to class.

Lu Qianling’s trick of pretending to be sick was seen through by the teachers. After that, as long as she applied for sick leave, they would not approve it. However, they did not expect her to actually dare to skip class and climb over the wall to play truant.

The form teacher could not help but complain in front of Meng Chuyuan, “I’ve never seen such an obedient girl suddenly do such a thing one day.”

Meng Chuyuan asked calmly, “Then do you know why she doesn’t live on campus?

“Her family seemed to have told the school that she wasn’t used to staying on campus?” She had heard this feedback from the higher-ups before. They even discussed for days in order to deal with this matter. In the end, the school agreed to let Lu Qianling study outside.

Hearing the form teacher’s answer, Meng Chuyuan knew that she had not taken the time to understand this situation in detail.

If everyone could use this reason to apply for off-campus study, then there would be no barrier of entry preventing people from abusing the off-campus study option.

“She was transferred in from the next class. I have a deep impression of her. When she applied to transfer to our class, I discussed it with the teacher in that class. As long as she could get first place in their class during the midterm exam, I would agree to her transfer. I thought she would give up, but I didn’t expect her to really get first place in the class.”

Lu Qianling was originally in the middle class. Her results were not outstanding. If she was placed in a class with good results, she would basically be at the bottom. Moreover, their teaching speed was different. In classes with students that did slightly worse, their lessons would be conducted at a slower pace.

Considering that, if Lu Qianling wanted to transfer over, not only did she have to adapt to the teacher’s teaching speed, but she also had to improve her results. Otherwise, her application would definitely be rejected.

As a teacher, she did not say those words to make things difficult for Lu

Qianling because the entire school was divided into classes according to results. Their manner of teaching was also tailored according to the situation of each class. If Lu Qianling decided to transfer classes, she could not relax. Otherwise, it would be difficult for her to keep up with her studies.

Meng Chuyuan’s eyes were filled with joy as she said firmly, “She has a lot of potential. She definitely won’t disappoint you.”

“She’s really surprised me recently. She’s very serious in class and has completed her homework quite well. I even praised her in class the day before yesterday…” In the end, the next afternoon, she lost her homework and caused an unhappy scene.

Meng Chuyuan told the teacher what Lu Jinsen had told her previously, hoping that she could pay more attention to the students’ situation in private and mediate between classmates.

Meng Chuyuan said, “I don’t know what your class’s grades are, but I believe in Lu Qianling. As long as she sets her mind to it, it won’t be a problem for her to be at the top.”

From the conversation just now, the teacher said that their class had heavy learning tasks. Once they let their guard down, it was easy for their results to slip up significantly.

Nevertheless, Lu Qianling was absent-minded during lessons and loved to skip class. Under such circumstances where she had missed classes many times, her grades were still at the passing mark. This showed that she was quite talented in her studies.

Halfway through the class, Lu Qianling’s thoughts went somewhere else.

She rested her hands on her cheeks and looked at her textbook in boredom. From time to time, her eyes would drift out of the window as she waited for class to end.

“Why aren’t you taking notes?” Meng Meng saw that she was in a daze and couldn’t help but poke Lu Qianling with the end of the pen.

Lu Qianling sighed softly. She picked up the pen on the table and began to take notes. She muttered, “I wonder if Little Sister Meng has left.”

Meng Chuyuan had never met her classmates, so how could she bear to leave?

She had just told the homeroom teacher that she wanted to visit Lu Qianling’s class after their lesson ended, and the homeroom teacher agreed. She even smiled and said to Meng Chuyuan, “The children in the class should like you very much.”

Strictly speaking, phones were not allowed in class.

However, they all lived on campus, and it was not safe for them to leave their valuables in the dormitory. That was why there was a rule that cell phones could be carried into the classroom.

There was a mobile phone bag in each classroom that was used to keep the phones that the students handed in. It was entirely up to the students whether they wanted to hand their phones in or not. They could hand it in if they wanted to or keep it themself. However, if the teacher found out that they were playing with their phones in class, it would be confiscated.

Meng Chuyuan only smiled and said nothing in the face of what the teacher had just said.

The use of the word ‘like’ was an oversimplification. One could never know if they truly liked the variety show or if they were simply following the trends because she had become popular all over the Internet.

After a long wait, the bell signaling the end of class finally rang again.

The form teacher drank a mouthful of water, then stood up and said to Meng

Chuyuan, “Class is over. I’ll take you there.”

After staying in the office for so long, Meng Chuyuan’s mask had somehow been taken off and strung around her hand.

Her eyes curved into crescents as she smiled faintly. “Sorry to trouble you..”
