Rebirth: The Comeback of the Girl
Chapter 98: Two Worlds

Chapter 98: Chapter 98: Two Worlds

In just an instant, Teacher Shen pinned the blame on Han Mingyue again.

Having too many lice makes one immune to itching, and having too much debt makes one stop worrying.

Teacher Shen suddenly calmed down and directly sat down in the chair behind the lecture desk, waiting for Teacher Cao to arrive.

Teacher Cao came not too quickly and entered the classroom looking gloomy.

All the students quieted down like cicadas in winter when they saw him.

Everyone thought it was Zhen Yu’s issue that had angered him, even Zhen Yu herself braced for being dealt with after seeing his expression.

Only Qiao Xian knew there was a bigger issue waiting for Teacher Cao to solve.

It was just that he was called over by Teacher Shen, who was in the middle of teaching, probably so as not to interrupt the class, hence he had to come over.

On the way there, Qiao Xian had already explained the cause and development of the incident to him.

Teacher Cao listened in silence the whole time, so even Qiao Xian had no idea how he would handle this matter.

After following him into the classroom, Qiao Xian returned to his seat and when passing by Zhen Yu once more, left a ’fend for yourself’ expression.

-

"Teacher Cao!" Upon hearing the door sound, Teacher Shen stood up first to greet him, then said, "Student Zhen Yu is defying discipline, how should this matter be handled?"

Teacher Cao’s eyes were sharp as a hawk, he glanced at her but didn’t speak, suddenly turning to look at Zhen Yu.

Zhen Yu felt guilty and shrank her shoulders slightly.

She knew this was not really Teacher Cao’s issue, but he had to clean up her mess again and again.

She wondered if he held any resentment towards her...

It wasn’t resentment per se.

Cao Yong just complained internally, always causing me trouble!

In reality, while he complained internally, he genuinely admired the girl deep down.

It was probably that she matched his temperament.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have previously lied in front of the students to take the blame for her, nor would he have sought help from the Junior High School Second Class head teacher.

But after all, he was colleagues with Teacher Shen, and with Han Mingyue’s issue being caught by the others, he and Teacher Jiang couldn’t suggest more than letting him go back to classes.

-

But now it was different.

When a teacher enters the classroom, it’s time to put all their skills to work to teach and resolve questions! When a student enters the classroom, they must sit quietly and listen attentively!

This was his class! Not Shen Yue’s stage for public critique of students!

After glancing at Zhen Yu twice, Cao Yong looked at his watch.

Then he turned to Shen Yue and said, "The bell for class rang ten minutes ago, Teacher Shen, when do you plan to start teaching?"

Shen Yue was incredulous, she never expected Cao Yong to come and not discipline the student, but instead, directly ask her to start teaching! Isn’t he concerned about maintaining the teacher’s authority?

"I,"

"Teacher Shen, please start teaching! I’ll take this student from another class with me, please don’t use my class’s teaching time to handle matters again in the future."

Teacher Cao didn’t give her a chance to speak, gestured to Han Mingyue to lead the way.

Han Mingyue turned around without hesitation and walked out, followed by Cao Yong heading towards the classroom door.

After Han Mingyue left, Cao Yong paused at the door, turning his head to Wu Qiong, who was seated closest to the door at the first table, and said: "Come to my office after lunch!"

His voice was not loud, and he walked out the door immediately after speaking.

-

The last minor episode was only known by Mou Jingjing and the circle of students seated near the door, while most of the students in the classroom were still immersed in the words and actions of Teacher Cao just moments ago.

Zhen Yu actually won? Zhen Yu actually won! Teacher Cao was clearly helping her!

At this moment, as the student representative, Zhen Yu firmly established a prestigious status in the hearts of the classmates of Junior High School First Class.

Unintentionally, she gained a large number of fans and followers.

From a certain perspective, poor students and teachers can be considered natural enemies.

Students who dare to challenge and win against teachers, in the eyes of poor students, what a ’glorious’ image this is!

Not to mention, right now, Fu Yu behind her had eyes blazing, almost as if he wanted to bore holes into her with his gaze!

As soon as Teacher Cao stepped out of the classroom, Shen Yue’s gaze turned towards Zhen Yu.

Zhen Yu boldly met his gaze, the meaning in their eyes only comprehensible to themselves.

Three seconds later, Shen Yue looked down at the lecturer’s desk and said, not too loudly nor too softly, "Turn your books to page 56, today we are learning about..."

Once the classroom door closed, Cao Yong left Han Mingyue with a "Go back to class!" and rushed past him like a gust of wind, his footsteps hurrying away.

Han Mingyue sighed in relief and headed towards the second year class.

Though he did not make a self-critique just now, the performance of everyone during the process deeply moved him.

The gaze from the classmates in Junior High School First Class was mostly curious, occasionally mixed with a hint of sympathy.

There was none of the mockery and ridicule he had imagined, only warmth and tolerance.

He had thought too much of the situation.

The office and the classroom, adults and children, really aren’t the same world.

And his circumstances in these two worlds are also worlds apart.

He wondered if after this ’incident,’ Teacher Shen would still let him continue to ’march’ to other classes?

Regardless, now that he had thought it through, Han Mingyue wasn’t afraid whether he went or not!

Usually, during the last lesson of the morning, the students are both hungry and craving, making classroom discipline never quite good.

But today was exceptionally different; everyone was quiet as a mouse.

Those near the heater felt drowsy but dared not drift off, wishing they could prop their eyelids open with toothpicks to stay awake until the bell rang.

"Class dismissed."

"Stand up!"

"Goodbye, Teacher~~~"

As soon as Teacher Shen left, those who were drowsy collapsed headfirst, the hungry ones jumped up to grab their food, hissing as they held the hot lunch boxes back to their seats and started eating right away.

Zhen Yu also wanted to get food, but before she could stand up, a boy had already brought her lunch box.

"Zhen Yu! Awesome~ here’s your lunch box!"

"Thanks," Zhen Yu thanked him as she took it, but the boy didn’t leave.

Leaning against Liu Ting’s desk, he shook his head and asked, "Zhen Yu~ do you still want to be the class representative after offending Teacher Shen?"

Zhen Yu, while opening her lunch box, replied without lifting her head or opening her eyes, "No."

"Dude, I admire you!" The boy said this as he gave a thumbs up, and shouted "Off to eat!" as he returned to his own seat to gossip with other poor performers.

"Zhen Yu!" Fu Yu called out after the boy had left, kicking his chair legs, "Was all the fuss you and Bai Xue made this morning just because of Han Mingyue?"

Actually, during the morning break, as soon as Zhen Yu ran out of the classroom, Fu Yu followed her but saw she was heading towards the teacher’s office building and thought a teacher had called her, so he returned to the classroom.

Zhen Yu continued eating, throwing the word "Hmm" over her shoulder.
