Chapter 39: Chapter 39 Qianbao

Zhuang Wenqian didn’t expect that a single sentence from Jiang Nian would ignite the class atmosphere, and that there was actually such a layer of resentment behind Yu Tongjie’s instigation.

There was no turning back now.

"Quiet!"

"Stop causing a commotion, everyone sit down!" Qianbao regained her teacherly authority, swept across the class with a stern face, "Those still standing, go stand in Teacher Liu’s office!"

After bringing out Head Teacher Lao Liu, the class noticeably calmed down.

Qianbao frowned, turned to glance at Yu Tongjie, and saw that this few kids were just silent. There was no extreme behavior, nor did they look sinister.

Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief, really afraid he would make a leap of faith from the fourth floor.

Ah, these kids actually have quite strong psychological resilience!

Zhuang Wenqian herself is young and can accept abstract culture. She married a small entrepreneur, so while life cannot be said to be opulent, at the very least she lives comfortably.

Seeing that Yu Tongjie showed no abnormality, she was ready to continue the translation.

At this point, not continuing would be even more strange, just make the point and stop. Zhuang Wenqian neither liked Jiang Nian who didn’t do the test paper, nor the students who instigated during class.

"That student, you go first, translate the sentence."

Yu Tongjie slightly lowered his head, gritted his teeth and started a dry translation, "Before the earthquake, the sewage had risen, but no one judged that the earthquake was imminent."

He didn’t recognize the word canals, and also forgot what wells meant, so he could only translate it vaguely like this.

"Hmm, the general meaning is correct." Qianbao encouraged, "When doing reading comprehension, you don’t need to know every word, the idea of inferring meaning from context is correct too."

"If we temporarily forget the meaning of a word, we can roughly guess what it’s related to from the context, right? Yes, it’s related to where sewage flows, isn’t it?"

The summer heat was stifling, the brightness outside the window, and the electric sound of the English teacher’s Little Bee loudspeaker echoed in the classroom.

A part of the girls near the lectern, their gaze swept over to Jiang Nian who was standing there with a blank sheet, obviously a bit absent-minded, and couldn’t help but secretly purse their lips.

In a Chinese campus, usually the good-looking, high-achieving ones enjoy youth first.

Jiang Nian had both, his grades weren’t particularly great, but they were acceptable in the Olympic class. That face was so good-looking that everything seemed reasonable if he did it.

Perhaps the pressure of third year high school was too great, they preferred people who didn’t pretend and would directly face-to-face counterattack.

That felt great.

After finishing the first sentence, Zhuang Wenqian turned to look at Jiang Nian and tossed him a line.

"You can go ahead and translate."

Upon hearing this, the eyes of everyone in the class involuntarily turned to Jiang Nian. He picked up the blank test paper but didn’t start the translation immediately, instead flicked the paper.

"Do you want me to translate everything?"

The class suddenly quieted down, and that white paper seemed particularly striking in the sunlight.

Qianbao was momentarily stunned and said unhappily, "If you translate everything, what will I have to teach?"

Immediately, the class burst into laughter.

Li Hua teased, "Teacher, he wants to take your job."

Amidst the teasing of numerous classmates, Jiang Nian began to translate, "In an instant, the collapsing stairs, the scattered mountainside, the massive gaps where the ground cracked, life was frozen in this moment."

Zhuang Wenqian nodded, "Translated very accurately, now seeing the word... "

The translation continued to roll along like this, with both sides taking turns. Yu Tongjie became increasingly strained, making several complete translation errors, with meanings far apart.

As for Jiang Nian’s side, basically when his voice fell, Qianbao would immediately start explaining. Before reaching halfway, Zhuang Wenqian let Yu Tongjie step down first.

Though Qianbao encouraged and affirmed Yu Tongjie throughout, who was right or wrong was clear to everyone in the class.

The people around him started giving Yu Tongjie strange looks, like, with people who were promoted together you create rumors. Who would dare play with you, afraid not to end up chirping behind your back.

I say I can’t drink, and you say everywhere that I won’t live long?

Jiang Nian translated for a whole class session, also standing on the platform with a blank paper for a whole class. Acting pretentious can really become addicting, doing it for a whole class and still not feeling tired.

Ring ring ring, the end-of-class bell rang.

To avoid direct conflict, Zhuang Wenqian took Jiang Nian along as well. The moment they stepped out of the classroom, thunderous noise erupted behind them.

In the corridor, the sunlight was bright.

Qianbao, holding teaching materials in her arms, walked forward with taps, sending a fragrant breeze. Jiang Nian followed step by step, walking side by side with her, weaving through the crowd in the corridor.

"Teacher, I want to go to the bathroom."

"Will you die if you hold it for a while?" she gave Jiang Nian a glare.

Jiang Nian murmured, "That depends on how long I have to hold it."

Students with good grades generally have higher tolerance with teachers in their subject, as for how much privilege, it all depends on how high the grades are, and 140 is a clear dividing line.

In English and other subjects, 120 is just average. 130 is considered top student territory, over 140 is absolute zone.

"Still fussy, I haven’t even settled the score for disrupting class yet." Qianbao turned to glare at him, threatening, "Wait till Teacher Liu scolds you."

"No way, teacher." Jiang Nian was clearly oil-and-water-proof, smiling cheekily, "Then I won’t go to the bathroom, I’ll grudgingly hold it for another half hour."

"You, even if you’re doing well you shouldn’t be so reckless, you need to get along with your classmates, understood?" Qianbao lectured earnestly, "It’s only just passed National Day, you guys have to get along for another year."

"Not necessarily." Jiang Nian suddenly said, "What if during this month’s major exam, he gets dropped out?"

Hearing this, Qianbao’s speech came to a halt.

Thinking to herself that this guy really is consistent inside and out, is he still this aggressive outside the classroom?

"You’ve already said what if, have you thought about what you’ll do if he stays?" Qianbao walked into the office and after sitting down, handed him a cup.

"Go fetch me some hot water first."

Jiang Nian was speechless, not... already ordering around?

"Sure, okay."

After getting the water, Qianbao threw a few unknown flowers into the cup. Steam rose, exuding an unfamiliar fragrance, Jiang Nian’s nose twitched slightly.

"Teacher, you’re starting to care for your health so young?"

Zhuang Wenqian, hearing the word young, smiled with her eyes curved, thinking this kid isn’t completely tactless.

"Oh, the child’s almost in elementary school, what young?"

Women’s contradictions, logically the next line should flatter Qianbao’s youthfulness, clearly looking like someone who hasn’t had a kid, distinctly like a student.

Yet Jiang Nian stopped short directly.

He stared at the unknown herbs inside the cup, "This thing that looks like a centipede..."

Qianbao’s fist under the table inexplicably tightened, not speaking, just stared at him.

Jiang Nian felt uneasy under her gaze, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Teacher, you look like you’re only seventeen."

In a second, Qianbao’s mood shifted, she covered her mouth and laughed, "No no, not at all."
