A Bookworm’s New Routine - Chapter 19

The day before the winter vacation, the students all came to the school, and the majority of them began to be concerned about their grades. In front of each class, the score ranking table was posted.

​

Hu Ying dared not to look at her own grades, so she pushed Mu Qi and said: “Qi-ge, please help me see what rank I am from the bottom.” Being in the bottom of the pile in the past had cast a shadow, and there was no confidence at all in the making up of lessons before the exams.

Mu Qi glanced at the ranking table, then taking advantage of Hu Ying’s inattentiveness, pushed her directly to the front of the ranking table, and said with a smile: “See for yourself.”

While Hu Ying said that she didn’t dare to look, she secretly opened her eyes. As she slowly looked for her name from the bottom to the top, her eyes gradually opened wider and wider. When she saw that she was in the middle of the class, she shouted excitedly: “Aaaah, Qi-ge, Qi-ge, I’m not the last one, hahahaha……”

The people around her immediately looked at her name, and indeed, she was not the last one, with an overall score of over four hundred points.

Over four hundred points, naturally, is insufficient to be seen in the school ranking list, but in the class, it’s in the middle, which is not bad for Hu Ying.

At this time, Su Yanxi also quickly forced her way in, and the first one she looked for was not her own grades, rather, she looked for Mu Qi’s. When she saw that the other party was in tenth place, her face turned red with excitement. Not daring to believe it, she turned towards Mu Qi, and with her eyes glistening as she looked at the other party, she said with a loud and clear voice: “Mu Qi, you’re in tenth place!”

“What?! Qi-ge is in tenth place?” Hu Ying, who was still excited, hurriedly came over to see that Mu Qi was indeed in the tenth place of the class, with more than five hundred points.

And Su Yanxi’s grade, was naturally, without a doubt, seven hundred and forty points, with points deducted from the Chinese language composition, and from a question in mathematics that she missed.

Yet, that was it, her grades are also the first in the class and first in the whole year, with a full twenty points higher than the second in the whole year, which is enviable.

“Hahaha, I didn’t expect that I, Hu Ying, could be very awesome when I get serious!” Hu Ying immediately made a stinky fart (!).

(!) 臭屁 (stinky fart): A slang used to say that someone is showing off, being arrogant, being cocky, etc.

No idea how to write ‘stinky fart’ without it sounding weird.

However, there were joys and sorrows. Among those who made up the lessons before the exams, some improved forward by one or two places, but some regressed.

Seeing their grades, a person collapsed immediately, “The make up lessons were not useful to me at all, don’t tell me, am I a natural waste?” The person began to doubt his life.

At this time, the head teacher, Li Wei, came over with a smile on his face. Seeing the students at the door, he immediately called out “The head teacher is coming”, and everyone swarmed back to their seats.

Seeing the smiling faces of some people and the very dispirited faces of others, Li Wei clapped his hands and said: “This final exam, everyone did well, and especially before the exam, I saw how hard everyone worked, and I am very happy with the results.”

Someone below suddenly shouted: “Teacher, can we do less homework for the winter vacation?”

The voice fell, and there were other people who agreed.

Li Wei smiled and said: “No.” Seeing everyone’s disappointed expression, he continued: “It’s one thing to do well on the exam, but you still have to do your homework.” A group below wailed.

Li Wei clapped his hands to calm everyone down, and continued: “Starting from tomorrow, we will officially enter the winter vacation. I have talked about safety issues many times in the past, so I won’t talk about it today. I hope that you will put safety first when you play.”

“Understood.” Hearing these words made his ears calloused.

Li Wei said: “Okay, I won’t say any more about it, I wish the classmates a Happy New Year in advance.”

“Happy New Year too, teacher!” Perhaps it was because the winter vacation was approaching, but the students who were usually too afraid of their head teacher now shouted boldly one by one. Li Wei wasn’t only not unhappy, but instead, he walked away with a smile.
