Chapter 8
Zhao Minghua frowned slightly as she stared at Xie Xinglin. She glanced down at her watch, “A minute late.”
“Xie Xinglin, come to my office after class for the assignment and turn it in at the end of the school day.”
Xiaopang, who sat in the front, blurted out to his tablemate, “Brother Xie is not late, didn’t he arrive right when the bell rang?”
His loud voice was heard by Zhao Minghua.
Zhao Minghua glanced coldly at Xiaopang, “Peng Jianda, would you also like a copy?”
Peng Jianda immediately shook his head like a rattle and with a serious expression said, “Teacher’s punishment was right.”
Zhao Minghua looked at the youth at the door, “Xie Xinglin, if you don’t have any objections, then come in.”
Xie Xinglin was silent as he stood at the back door, his expression difficult to distinguish.
Just when Su Qiuge thought he was going to raise his eyebrows in the next moment and question, “Why? I don’t want to write an assignment,” he unexpectedly —— very cooperatively nodded his head.
Su Qiuge: ! !
Is this gentle and introverted top student really the same person as the yellow-haired youth’s gangster brother from yesterday??
Xie Xinglin glanced around the classroom, probably already aware that the seats were changed. Finally, his gaze fell on Su Qiuge, who was seated in the last row with an empty seat next to her. Their eyes met.
Xie Xinglin looked away as if he saw nothing. He continued to stand at the door and glanced around the classroom once again.
The classroom was packed.
Zhao Minghua noticed that he was still at the door. She raised her eyebrows, “What’s the matter? You’re already late and still want to take your time?”
Xie Xinglin pursed his lips, the movement caused the line of his jaw to appear full of restraint. He walked towards the empty seat next to Su Qiuge.
Su Qiuge held her chin in her right hand as her gaze swept over him.
Xie Xinglin pulled out the chair and sat down. He did not spare her a single glance.
For some reason, Su Qiuge felt that his tardiness had something to do with what happened yesterday.
Although the matter is unrelated to her, she still felt guilty when she saw the band-aid on his face.
She twirled the pen and told herself ——
Su Qiuge, this matter isn’t your fault. You shouldn’t be so kind and blame yourself.
Zhao Minghua, who stood on the podium, knocked on the blackboard, “Take out the math assignments you did yesterday.”
“Shwah, shwah ——” The sound of pulling out paper filled the classroom.
Su Qiuge took out her assignment before her line of sight fell on Xie Xinglin, who was seated next to her.
His handwriting was slender and beautiful, refreshing, and pleasing to the eye. The paper was full of answers, without a single question left unanswered.
If she remembered correctly, this deskmate of hers seemed to rank first every year.
Obviously this persona was more in line with that of a male lead. Who was the person she met yesterday??
Zhao Minghua discussed the multiple-choice questions as she walked up and down the aisles of the classroom.
Su Qiuge felt that when the teacher passed by her desk, she paused for a significantly longer amount of time. It almost seemed like she was trying to determine if Su Qiuge finished her homework.
So Su Qiuge deliberately turned the paper over and glanced up at Zhao Minghua. She motioned to her that she not only did the front but she completed the back as well.
After a glance, Zhao Minghua finally walked past her and arrived at Xiaohei’s right side.
Xiaohei was suddenly a little nervous and immediately sat upright.
As if inspired by Su Qiuge, Zhao Minghua said to Xiaohei, “Turn over the paper, let’s see the other side.”
Xiaohei hadn’t thought that Sister Hua would make such a move and his dark complexion suddenly became extremely pale.
He turned his head and looked at Zhao Minghua with a guilty expression. When he turned his head again, he saw Su Qiuge to his left.
During the moment when he turned his head, Su Qiuge suddenly remembered that this boy had covered his paper during the morning reading and had looked at her wearily as if she was a thief.
So, she also very vigilantly covered the answers on her paper. This time, she was the widow protecting her chastity.
In addition, Su Qiuge blinked at Xiaohei and childishly whispered, “I won’t show you.”
Xiaohei: “……”
He resignedly turned over the paper.
As expected, half of this side was not finished.
Xiaohei never imagined that Su Qiuge, who arrived after him, could actually finish the assignment before him.
Based on her speed, she must’ve been randomly scribbling!
Xiaohei was still complaining in his heart when Zhao Minghua coldly said, “Tang Jie, you and Xie Xinglin can both come to my office after class to pick up assignments.”
