43 Expelled?
The laughter in the classroom reached Gu Man’s ears through the wall, but she seemed to not hear it and walked towards the office.
When Gu Man reached the office door, Liu Yan said impatiently when she saw her, “Why are you so slow? The Year Head is looking for you. Hurry up and come in.”
Gu Man followed Liu Yan into the office. The Year Head and a few form teachers were discussing the problem in low voices. All the teachers’ faces had unhappy expressions.
The teachers stopped when they saw Gu Man enter.
The Year Head, Mo Yong, irritably stroked the few remaining strands of hair on his head, making the strands of hair that were originally flat on his head flutter everywhere. However, Mo Yong had no time to care.
“Gu Man?” Mo Yong lowered his head slightly and looked at Gu Man through the frame of his glasses.
Gu Man replied, “Yes.”
Mo Yong looked at the information in his hand and then at Gu Man. “Your results have been almost at the bottom for the past few months, seriously dragging down Class Five’s results. Moreover, you even hit your classmates. Due to the above reasons, Class Five wants you to leave Class Five.”
“Oh, then what has the school decided to do?” Gu Man asked calmly.
Gu Man’s calmness was beyond everyone’s expectations. Shouldn’t a normal student be embarrassed, anxious, and crying when they heard that they were kicked out of class?
Mo Yong was also surprised by Gu Man’s reaction. He paused for a moment before saying, “We’ve just discussed it. According to your results, you can only be assigned to Class 10, but there are conditions to enter Class 10. You have to pass the test to enter. Otherwise, we can only inform your parents to handle your expulsion.”
Gu Man knew that she could not be expelled now. She needed Han City First High School as her springboard. When she entered university, she could break free from the Gu family.
Gu Man said calmly, “Then let’s take the test.”
A bespectacled man in his thirties stood up and took a piece of paper. “I’m the form teacher of Class 10, Zhou Yuan. I’ll be the one to set the questions for you this time. Don’t worry, the questions I set this time are not difficult. You can complete these five questions in half an hour.”
Zhou Yuan pitied Gu Man. If she was transferred out of First High at this time, she would stand no chance for the college entrance exams. Hence, he could not help but lower his voice.
He had learned about Gu Man in advance. This student had just transferred from the countryside. Not only were her results bad, but her personality was also bad. However, from the moment she entered, he felt that Gu Man was not as bad as the rumors said.
At least her calmness and composure impressed him.
There was an unwritten rule in Han City First High School. One could tell from the class whether the students’ results were good or bad. From class one to class ten, the lower the class, the worse the results.
As the form teacher of the worst class, Zhou Yuan actually did not mind accepting another bad student, but he just could not take it lying down.
Why should poor students be directly sent to his class? If this continued, the bad class would forever be the bad class. As the form teacher of the bad class, he would not be able to benefit, be it his bonus or his pride.
The Year Head, Mo Yong, said to the other teachers, “You guys go back first. Zhou Yuan and I will stay behind to handle it.”
Gu Man took the paper and slowly read it from beginning to end. She was not in a hurry to answer the questions.
Zhou Yuan looked at Gu Man’s expression and felt that she definitely did not know how to start. He could not bear to, but in the end, he shook his head and sat at a desk on the other side and wrote his lesson plan.
Suddenly, Zhou Yuan heard Gu Man say, “I’m done!”
Zhou Yuan looked at his watch. It had only been 10 minutes.
He had indeed lowered the difficulty of the test paper, but it was still difficult to complete it in ten minutes. Could it be that Gu Man had given up on herself?
Zhou Yuan looked at Gu Man and did not get up. Instead, he encouraged her, “Gu Man, even if you don’t know how to do it, you can’t give up so easily. Study the questions seriously and recall the knowledge that your teacher taught. You can do it.”
“I’m done.” Gu Man raised the paper. The page was full of words.
Only then did Zhou Yuan walk over in surprise. Was it written randomly?
Holding the paper in his hand, Zhou Yuan looked at the answers written on it and was increasingly surprised. She had answered everything correctly.
“This…” Zhou Yuan looked at the papers and then at Gu Man. He was surprised and bewildered. Who said that Gu Man was bad? She had answered all these questions correctly in just ten minutes!
A student like this was all that Class 10 could wish for.
