Chapter 7.3 – The Principal Announces the Cancellation of the Price Increase (3)

❥❥❥

Nan Xiangwan used to be a student in the Rocket Class. The competition in the Rocket Class is fierce. The mountain of books and the sea of questions are everything to her. Things other than studying are like clouds in the sky. Although she can see it when she looks up, she still had to read when she lowered her head.

In order to squeeze more time to study, Nan Xiangwan rarely drinks water, and rarely goes to the canteen. She is not very sensitive to the meal price. She remembers the canteen seems to increase the price frequently, but there was once it was particularly strange, the price went down again soon after the increase.

Because she saw the trees full of fruits, she took the fruit for granted. She firmly believed that the canteen would be canceled soon after the price increase, but she never thought about fertilizing the malnourished and diseased fruit trees to catch insects. Otherwise, the trees full of fruits will always remain in people’s fantasies.

She always said what the students in the Disciplinary class did was in vain, persuaded them to accept the reality, ‘People nowadays are selfish, indifferent, and arrogant.’ While reminding her classmates, she also provided insight into her working society. She was full of superiority by being successful in her world. In fact, she is the most selfish, indifferent, and most arrogant.

Nan Xiangwan sighed and looked around.

The canteen has returned to the hustle and bustle of the past. Everyone seemed to be celebrating this festival, every face is filled with the joy of victory.

Although the matter is over, people’s enthusiasm for discussion has not diminished at all. As soon as they walk into the canteen, words such as “price increase”, “invitation letter”, “flyer” and “principal” would appear in their ears.

Lin Xiaoran struggled to grab four pumpkin pie. He gave Nan Xiangwan one. “Hurry up, I bought a lot of them for two dollars. I almost lost my life.”

The pumpkin pie seemed to be fresh out of the oven, it was a bit hot in the hand. Nan Xiangwan lowered her head and said “thank you”.

“Thanks for what?” Don’t know how Lin Xiaoran’s mouth survived, he can eat something so hot. He took a bite of pumpkin pie and said vaguely, “We should thank you. If it wasn’t for your suggestion, we couldn’t make it.”

Jiang Daling raised her chin, “I was the one who suggested looking for WanWan.”

Lin Xiaoran disagreed, “I obviously mentioned it first.”

Nan Xiangwan smiled at this moment. No matter who mentioned it, she was very grateful to her classmates. Not only they gave herself their trust, but also gave her a chance to get to know herself again. Thinking of this, Nan Xiangwan took a deep breath and made up her mind about what she must do for everyone.

She announced the plan to the class during the long break on Thursday.

“Everyone, be quiet.” Nan Xiangwan stood on the podium with an arrogant expression and indifferent tone, as if she had returned to the day when she was standing on the university campus and holding a presentation to the underwhelming crowd.

She didn’t have a loud voice, but as long as she stood there, without even speaking, the classroom that had just been awakened by the end of class bell suddenly became silent.

Nan Xiangwan said expressionlessly, “Starting from this week, I will teach physics for everyone during the long break every Tuesday and Thursday. The content of this tutoring is the essence of the Rocket class’s physics class. It lasts for 10 minutes. Listen, you can do anything if you don’t want to listen, but you can’t influence others.”

Without waiting for any reaction from the classmates, Nan Xiangwan already took out a piece of paper. She doesn’t have much patience, coupled with the limited time, so she won’t so persuasive as Chen Shiyun. She kept her head down, no matter if the classmates listened or followed, she just keeps talking.

Many people didn’t realize what was happening until the sound of the flipping book sounded, they asked this and that, “What did she just say?”

Nan Xiangwan not only talked about the knowledge points, she also introduced several possible question types around the knowledge points, marking words in the question where the problem stem, possible traps, and the problem-solving skills that can quickly lock the answers…Nan Xiangwan has no reservations. She gave all the knowledge she learned from the physics teacher of the Rocket class and the experience she had summed up for all the tests.

Nan Xiangwan spoke quickly because she was very familiar with the content. Just a few words, she can already understand while other people can’t. They couldn’t understand it so they couldn’t react to it. Finally, the girl sitting in the front row whispered, “Wait a minute, can you say it again?”

“The original words is in the book, find it yourself.” Nan Xiangwan did not look up.

“But…” She looked for it but didn’t find it.

Nan Xiangwan stopped flipping the book at this moment, probably because she felt the voice was a bit familiar, she raised her head and glanced. Sitting in the front row, the team leader frowned while holding a pen, there was sweat on her anxious face. The book in her hand was almost torn by her.

“Page eight, upper right corner.” Nan Xiangwan said in a deep voice.

The team leader quickly turned to the eighth page and found the sentence in the upper right corner. She marked the sentence with a pen, her anxious expression eased slightly. She took a breath and looked at the podium subconsciously. Nan Xiangwan still stared at the paper in front of her, without any expression on her face.

Nan Xiangwan stopped at this moment, “If you want to keep up with my speed, you need to review. After learning it by yourself, you will know what the lesson is about, what are the key points and difficulties. I am only responsible for checking the deficiencies and making up for the improvement. If it’s too detailed and basic, I won’t talk about it. Today will be a little bit slower, but next time it’s still at this speed, regardless you like it or not.”

The team leader couldn’t help but curled her lips. She guessed that many people thought like her. Everyone is a classmate, so why should Nan Xiangwan use this attitude to talk to them? She is not the first in the class. Even though she has excellent grades, she can only be regarded as hardworking. Don’t know where she got this confidence.

The team leader’s eyes were about to fly into the sky. She felt uneasy in her heart, as if she was about to drive Nan Xiangwan off in the next second, but when Nan Xiangwan said “next”, she immediately leaned forward and clenched tightly the pen in her hand, for fear of missing any important knowledge points.

After finishing all the content, Nan Xiangwan looked at her watch, which was five minutes longer than expected.

Soon, there was a chattering sound in the classroom. Everyone looked at each other’s notes, trying to make up the missing content.

Nan Xiangwan picked up her things. When she stepped off the podium, she saw a boy standing in front of the class. The boy wore a white shirt inside his school uniform, smiled while looking at her.

“Liu Yubai? Why are you here?” Nan Xiangwan immediately greeted him, “Who are you looking for?”

“Looking for you.” Liu Yubai replied, “Did you teach your classmates just now?”

“…” Nan Xiangwan’s face flushed suddenly. She can confidently say “friction” and “acceleration” in front of the disciplinary class, but if she knew Liu Yubai was also there, she might be so nervous that she couldn’t even speak. He was the first prize winner of the physics competition. When he went to the office to receive the prize, she was punished for talking in class.

She smiled embarrassedly, “I made you laugh1.You should forget what happened just now, just as if you didn’t see anything…”

[1] This prase is used to self-mockery, like admitting a lapse or mistake.

“Heh…” Liu Yubai also smiled. He pursed his lips and said, “You speak very well.”

He was just comforting her, he was always like this. He never made others embarrassed, even if she felt that she was overly naive and ridiculous, he would say affirmative words against his will.

Nan Xiangwan’s face flushed even more, She eagerly changed the subject, “By the way, are you looking for me?”

“Oh, this is for you.” Liu Yubai took out a silver mp3, “The physics teacher asked me to hand it to you.”

“My goodness” Nan Xiangwan suddenly remembered the physics class in the Rocket class had just ended, and Lin Xiaoran should get the mp3 back as usual. She took the mp3 and glanced at the back of the classroom subconsciously. Lin Xiaoran lowered his head, writing something frantically. He probably forgot about it a long time ago.

“Thank you, sorry to trouble you.”

“It’s okay.” If he hadn’t been called by the physics teacher to help, he would probably never have seen Nan Xiangwan standing on the podium.

Nan Xiangwan said goodbye to Liu Yubai, walked back with the mp3 and stride over Lin Xiaoran to ask his guilt.

Lin Xiaoran was also looking for her, seeing Nan Xiangwan’s eyes lit up, he said, “I’ve copied it.”

It was a thick notebook with a girlish pink cover. Lin Xiaoran killed the mouse with her notebook and said afterward that he would pay her a new one.

“So fast?” Nan Xiangwan took the notebook suspiciously, opened it and looked at it.

“Wow…” Nan Xiangwan couldn’t help but whispered in her heart, is this the Lin Xiaoran she knew? She turned her head and nodded, then returned the notebook to Lin Xiaoran. “Very good, I’ll give it to you.”

“What?!”

“You keep it. Use it as your notebook from now on.”

Nan Xiangwan took back her own notebook, “I’ll take it for my own convenience. Your handwriting is too childish, you can keep it for yourself.” Although the notebook stained with dead mice was really disgusting, she didn’t want Lin Xiaoran to pay her a copy. Since he himself asked to copy it, she would just enjoy it. She hopes he has really learned something after copying it and can keep the habit of taking notes.

“Ah…” Lin Xiaoran agreed with a slight disappointment. Suddenly, he patted his head, “I haven’t got the mp3 yet.”

Nan Xiangwan hurriedly stopped him, “It’s here. Your uncle found someone to send it over.”

Lin Xiaoran let out a sigh, “That’s good.”

“Right……”

Lin Xiaoran wanted to say something but Nan Xiangwan raised her palm in front of him, signaled him not to talk to her. She had already lost too much time, now she must hurry up and study.

“Bah!” Lin Xiaoran snorted and turned back.

…

Nan Xiangwan was shocked when she returned home.

She vaguely smelled a strange smell in the corridor, but she never thought that the smell came from her own home. She couldn’t believe her eyes. The room completely changed its appearance. There were red ropes, yellow silks, copper coins, and swords on the wall. Of course, these things couldn’t surprise her as much as the Buddha statue on the wall. The shock effect is so strong.

Guan Xiumei, who was kneeling in front of the Bodhisattva, heard the voice and waved impatiently to Nan Xiangwan, “Come and pray. Let the Bodhisattva bless you to be admitted to a good university.”

“Mom…” Nan Xiangwan is obviously reluctant. Although there are many unknown things in this world, she doesn’t think that worshipping Bodhisattva has anything to do with being admitted to a good university.

Seeing her like this, Guan Xiumei suddenly became angry and scolded her for being ignorant, “I went to the temple to pay respects before the final exam last semester, how about it? Didn’t your grades increase again? Tell me, if it weren’t for the Bodhisattva’s blessing, only relying on you to study hard every day, could your grades rise so fast? I went to the temple today to pay my vows and invite the Bodhisattva home by the way. We will worship it every morning and evening. Come on, come and kowtow, let the Bodhisattva bless you.”

“Mom…” Nan Xiangwan wailed again. She didn’t do well because she didn’t study for a long time. She did well in the final exam because she systematically reviewed the knowledge to be tested. What does it have to do with the Bodhisattva? Whether she does well or not is completely in her hands. If she doesn’t do well in the final exam, will her mom feels the Bodhisattva is not working? No! Mother will definitely feel she is not sincere enough so the Bodhisattva refuses to help.

Seeing Nan Xiangwan standing still, Guan Xiumei raised her tone, “You kid, how can you not moving? I learned the method of chanting with Master today, and I will teach you. Let’s go to the vegetable market to buy some fish and shrimp on Saturday. It good for you.”

“…” Nan Xiangwan closed her eyes in despair.

At this moment, Nan Yuemin came back. Nan Xiangwan immediately said, “Mom, I still have homework. You teach my dad first.” After speaking, She ran back to her room.

Nan Xiangwan, who was sitting at the desk, just rejoiced she had escaped. Soon, Guan Xiumei’s cry came from the living room. “Is this my business alone? You never care about child education. I tried my best to help our child, you just want to stop us, why am I so miserable…”

“Hah…” It started again. Nan Xiangwan sighed, skillfully adjusted the earphone sound to the maximum, forcing herself to settle down and concentrate on listening to the MP3.
