Chapter 153

“Does Teacher Su have something to discuss with you?”

“It’s just about academics, she mentioned that my English grades have dropped,” Xu Lin answered truthfully, while Ji Yun lifted her chin slightly.

“So you’ve been slacking off because I haven’t been tutoring you lately?”

“No, my English is not good to begin with. Last time was just a fluke; this time, I’m just back to my normal level.”

“Then you need to keep learning. If you don’t understand, ask me or Zhuo Yan, you can also ask Teacher Su. By the way, you can also ask Sister Fengyi, she should be good at English too.”

“Okay.”

Xu Lin nodded. Monitor Ji’s greatest expectation of him was similar to that of his parents: to study hard.

He also wanted to get into a good university and wouldn’t let anything else distract him from that goal.

“Yun, you’re always pushing him to study. Do you want to go to the same university as him?” Zhuo Yan asked quietly.

“Yeah.”

“You haven’t been acting recently, huh? Then I’ll join the same university as you, and be the third wheel!”

“Haha, alright! Actually, your grades are not bad compared to Xu Lin’s. It’s just that you struggle a bit with math. If you put in a little more effort, I think you’ll be fine.”

“Maybe I’m just naturally bad at math. I’ve already tried my best. I even hired tutors during summer and winter vacations, but I still can’t improve. Sigh~”

Math has always been her Achilles’ heel. Without it, she could at least vie for the top 15 in the class.

“Oh, by the way, Ji Yun, there’s something. Should we tell the homeroom teacher?”

“What is it?”

Ji Yun, as the class monitor, and Zhuo Yan, as the study committee member, gather a lot of information and decide whether or not to inform the teacher. Some matters are trivial and don’t require reporting, while others can be handled without involving the teacher.

However, informing the teacher can sometimes lead to discontent among classmates. So, being a class monitor involves making judgment calls. Ji Yun and Zhuo Yan discuss everything together before making a decision.

“Sun Tao and Zhang Kang brought a tablet to school and were watching videos over there just now. I caught them and confiscated it.”

“Just treat it like how you dealt with phones.”

The first time Ji Yun caught students with phones, she gave them to the teacher, and the teacher confiscated them directly. It wasn’t until half a semester later that they were returned.

But as a result, the other party became very resentful towards her and the committee members of the class. They often quarreled, and a few months ago, chose to drop out of school.

Later, Ji Yun and Zhuo Yan discussed and made a small decision. That is, if the other party voluntarily hands over their phone, they will temporarily hold it instead of submitting it.

Then they would tell them that it has been submitted and they must attentively attend classes and do their homework. The better they perform, the sooner they will return it to them, usually within 3 days to a week.

So the class management has improved a lot. Of course, apart from phones, they’ve also taken similar actions in other situations, and it’s been effective.

“Not that, it’s them... watching those kinds of movies. Should we tell the teacher?”

“Those kinds? Is it that kind?!”

He just struggled hard, but couldn’t move the other party’s arm with both of his arms. He realized one thing: it seemed he couldn’t win.

“Last time I ignored you. I just gave you a little trouble, but didn’t expect you to be so clueless!”

“Still glaring at us, do you really think I have a good temper? And where’s your apology? I have waited for 2 months.”

Xu Lin said in a deep voice, feeling Ji Yun’s little hand on his arm, suppressing the anger in his chest.

Just a moment ago, if he hadn’t retracted his hands at the last minute, blood would have been shed by now. This despicable guy, truly disgusting!

“Apologize to Ji Yun first.”

“...,” Zhang Kang looked at Xu Lin and wanted to withdraw directly, but was blocked by several students.

“Apologize.”

“Sorry.”

“Can’t hear you.”

“Sorry!” With that, Zhang Kang bowed towards Ji Yun.

“What about me?”

“Sorry.”

“Louder.”

“Xu Lin, don’t be too much! This is school!”

“You still remember you’re at school? Acting like an adult, swaggering around all day dressed like a gangster, bullying the honest kids, do you think that works? After hanging out with a bunch of riffraff, you think you’re so cool, go to hell!”

“What are you doing!?”

At this moment, a cafeteria teacher also walked over. Zhang Kang took the opportunity to squeeze in, and the surrounding students let out a chorus of boos!

Xu Lin took a deep breath, then looked at Ji Yun beside him and said, “Did I just seem like a villain?”

“No, but please don’t get into fights with others, okay? Learning from Teacher Chu, you’re not doing it for fighting, right?”

“Absolutely not~ I’m learning it to protect you~” Xu Lin intentionally made a cute expression.

“There are so many people, it’s disgusting~ Let’s go in and eat.” Ji Yun said this, but the smile on her face did not go away.

Zhao Yan, who was standing beside, watched as Xu Lin suddenly became fierce and then turned back into a regular little puppy.

Suddenly, she felt a bit sour.

Oh my god, I feel like I want to fall in love too, otherwise I might get overwhelmed by the sweetness of these two people sooner or later.
