Chapter 26: Bad luck one after another (Part 1)

At such a critical stage of second-year high school, as soon as the class started, more than a dozen students asked for sick leave. The teacher felt a headache, so he could only take out the papers for the opening exam and talk about the knowledge points of the second year of high school.

Lin Qingyin was quite willing to review. Except for the language class, she only felt a little pressure. She doesn’t worry about the other subjects, as long as she makes up the lesson, she can keep up.

Only in this English subject, she was really powerless!

Perhaps Lin Qingyin’s expression was too obvious. Li Yanyu saw her at a glance and tapped the table with his index finger and said: “Lin Qingyin, you answer question #23.”

Lin Qingyin glanced at the test paper: “I choose A!”

“Why choose A?”

Lin Qingyin’s scalp exploded and stared at the test paper again, then came up with a perfect answer: “Because only A is correct.”

Li Yanyu felt cold in his back. This was the simplest multiple choice question on the paper. He wondered how did this little master know.

But in the presence of so many classmates, Li Yanyu didn’t dare to ask too much so that Lin Qingyin wouldn’t be embarrassed. After thinking about it, he let her sit down and bite the bullet for her: “The answer Lin Qingyin said is correct. Let’s look at the question first…”

Lin Qingyin breathed a sigh of relief. The fear she felt finally disappeared, and it seemed that the teacher would no longer ask her questions.

It took the whole hour of class to explain the test papers. Li Yanyu looked around the students in the classroom: “The 2 hours self-study classes in the afternoon will be used for English exams. The difficulty level is similar to the test paper we just discussed. I’ll see then if you paid attention to what I said just now.”

Listening to the wailing below, Li Yanyu kept his eyes on Lin Qingyin: “Only gel pens are allowed on the desk in the afternoon exam…” After thinking about it, Li Yanyu added: “Only one gel pen is allowed. Put everything else under the desk. Otherwise, it will be counted as cheating.”

It’s not that he was not considerate of students, he was really afraid that the little master can do a good job with a medium pen. He wanted to see how her English level was, and if it was really bad, he could help her make up lessons in private.

As a top student, who has returned from studying abroad, Li Yanyu really doesn’t want to teach advanced lessons to an English illiterate.

Hearing Li Yanyu’s words with obvious instructions, Lin Qingyin’s expression was indifferent. It’s not a big deal not to use the tortoiseshell. She can use her head without the tortoiseshell!

When Li Yanyu was about to take a step, he saw Lin Qingyin turning the test paper to the last page. She directly skipped the part of correcting grammar mistakes and started looking at the last written exam, which was writing an English essay.

The topic was to invite a friend from abroad to come as a guest at home and introduce him to some knowledge about customs and etiquette.

Lin Qingyin only glanced at the title and began to write eloquently. The letter she wrote also added a lot of content that was not required by the title, making her essay look more substantial and full.

At first, Li Yanyu was very happy to see that Lin Qingyin’s sentences and phrases surpassed what he has learned now, and felt that he underestimated her. But when he looked at it, Li Yanyu’s smile on the face froze. How come that essay looked so familiar?

Li Yanyu quickly took out his mobile phone from his pocket and searched a topic related to the essay written by Lin Qingyin. Soon, he found the standard answer for a certain year’s college entrance examination paper. The essay question in that exam was not much different from today’s essay question. It’s just, there was an additional introduction to table etiquette from that exam. And that part what made Li Yanyu felt that her essay was much more substantial and fuller.
