Chapter 3106 You dragged down the class average!

"Quiet down! The teacher hasn't finished speaking and you're already eager to talk? If you really want to talk, why don't you stand up on the podium and speak? Class monitor and vice class monitor, do you two have a lot to say to everyone? Would you like to stand up?"

Teacher Wu Mei swept her gaze across the classroom with an air of authority, and the noisy crowd immediately fell silent, each person sitting obediently in their seat, not daring to utter a sound.

Liu Liu really wanted to stand up and say a few words, but although Teacher Wu said that, he definitely didn't mean it that way.

If she were to actually stand up and say a few words, Teacher Wu would definitely say, "Since you want to speak so much, but we have limited time, why don't you write ten essays during your winter break, write down everything you want to say, and then come to class to read them aloud when the next semester starts? If you still feel it's not enough, I can talk to the principal and ask you to stand under the national flag and read it aloud to all the teachers and students when the national flag is raised."

Seeing that everyone was silent, Ms. Wu was satisfied and continued, "Have you all received your report cards? Is anyone else still missing one? If so, please let us know."

At that moment, a hand timidly rose in the classroom, followed by a voice: "Teacher, I... I didn't receive my report card."

Xiaobai and Liuliu turned their heads to look, wondering which unlucky person hadn't received their report card.

He was a boy who sat in the last row of the class, named Lin Youcai.

Ms. Wu asked expressionlessly, "Oh, you don't have a report card? How come you don't have a report card? Did you take any exams?"

Lin Youcai said aggrievedly, "I took the exam, Teacher Wu. I sat right behind Xie Xiaoxu and she saw me."

Everyone looked at Xie Xiaoxu, who was a little confused. He couldn't understand why Lin Youcai didn't have a report card. Judging from Teacher Wu's expression, it seemed like he had something on his mind.

Could there be a trap here? So he said, "Teacher, I saw Lin Youcai when I entered the exam room, but I don't know what happened after that, because he was sitting behind me. We're not allowed to look back during the exam, so I'm not sure if Lin Youcai ran away."

Lin Youcai stared wide-eyed at Xie Xiaoxu in shock. What a cunning Xie Xiaoxu!

"I took the exam! I was sitting in my seat taking the exam, and I don't know why my report card is missing!" Lin Youcai tried his best to defend himself.

At this moment, Xiaobai thought of a possibility. As the class monitor, he should be happy to help others: "Lin Youcai, did you forget to write your name during the exam?"

"Impossible, I must have written it, I..." Lin Youcai's momentum weakened as he spoke, and the more he thought about it, the less certain he became.

Teacher Wu Mei finally spoke up: "You still say you wrote your name! You didn't write your name in Chinese or Math!!"

The students in the class were in an uproar. There was still a silly kid who didn't write his name on the exam, even though the proctor had reminded him so many times.

Teacher Wu Mei was disappointed in Lin Youcai and gave him a lecture.

Lin Youcai turned pale, terrified. How could he go home and explain himself if he didn't achieve good results? Would he even be able to celebrate the New Year?

Xiao Bai understood and reminded Lin Youcai, "You should thank your homeroom teacher quickly. You didn't write your name, so you wouldn't have a grade, but Teacher Wu found your test paper for you and spent a lot of time on it. You should thank Teacher Wu."

Liuliu understood immediately and offered a suggestion: "Tell your dad to send Teacher Wu a holiday gift."

Teacher Wu Mei was pleased to hear Xiao Bai's words, but when she heard what Liu Liu said, she quickly stopped her: "What gift are you giving! Liu Liu, don't talk nonsense."

Xiao Bai seized the opportunity to put down Liu Liu: "Exactly! What kind of gift is this! The regulations are so strict now, why are you still giving gifts? Are you trying to harm Teacher Wu, are you?"

Liu Liu explained, "Xiao Bai, what are you thinking! I never thought you were this kind of person! The only gifts we elementary school students give are greeting cards. What's wrong with giving Teacher Wu a handmade greeting card? Which policeman would arrest you! Are you trying to give her money? Gold bars? Cigarettes? Alcohol? Or a pretty girl?"

Xiao Bai was speechless, as were everyone else in the classroom. Teacher Wu Mei was even more exasperated and quickly stopped Liu Liu from spouting nonsense. Where did she learn all this rubbish? If Xiao Mi used this kind of quirky thinking on her studies, she would feel immense pressure.

Ms. Wu stopped the class monitor and vice-monitor from bickering, thinking to herself that they were the ones she had chosen. She had truly brought them honor, but she had also left them speechless.

Teacher Wu called Lin Youcai to the stage, where he took his report card.

Lin Youcai forgot to write his name on the exam paper. Teacher Wu Mei had to check it several times before she confirmed that the exam paper was his. Otherwise, if the boy hadn't gotten any grades, he would have definitely gotten a beating when he got home.

"Thank you, Teacher Wu!"

Lin Youcai clearly listened to Xiaobai's words, but whether he listened to Liuliu's suggestion to give a gift is still unknown.

All the students in the class have their results. Teacher Wu Mei emphasized again that students who did well should remain humble and keep up their efforts, while students who did not do well should not be discouraged or lose confidence. Instead, they should learn from their mistakes, strive to emulate the advanced students, and become advanced themselves.

Liu Liu listened attentively from below the stage, nodding repeatedly. Her eyes, expressions, and gestures filled Teacher Wu Mei with emotion, making her feel that what she was saying was very inspiring, and she couldn't help but say a few more words.

Xiaobai glanced at Liuliu, who immediately sat up straight, nodded sternly at her, and whispered, "I must remain humble and keep up the good work."

Xiao Bai pouted, "A poor student has no right to say that."

After discussing the grades, Ms. Wu reiterated the importance of safety during the winter break, and then mentioned something else: "Tomorrow, the teachers will be making home visits. When you get home, you must tell your parents and grandparents immediately that you must stay home during the home visits and wait for the teachers to come..."

The room erupted in excitement. The struggling students were nervous, while the high achievers were filled with anticipation, seeing the teacher's home visit as a chance to compliment them.

Liuliu even thought about sneaking out early tomorrow morning, or maybe continuing to stay at Dudu's house. Although it would be a bit tiring, it would be very fulfilling.

However, Ms. Wu Mei's next words brought her back to reality.

"If I can't find the person, then I'll have to call your parents. I can't guarantee what they'll say then."

As the class monitor, Xiaobai immediately said, "Teacher! I'll wait for you at home all day tomorrow. Don't eat before you come. Come to my house for dinner. My grandma's cooking is delicious. My dad also said he wants to give you a New Year's gift. You must come empty-handed!"

Teacher Wu Mei was speechless.

Liu Liu reluctantly but enthusiastically said, "Come to my house for dinner, Teacher Wu. My mom only cooks delicious food when you come..."

Teacher Wu Mei couldn't stand it anymore and stopped them from continuing.

"I don't eat at anyone's house, so you don't need to prepare anything, just being here is enough. That's it, you can go home now. Xiaobai and Liuliu, come with me."

After she finished speaking, she left the classroom and returned to her office.

Xiaobai and Liuliu followed along excitedly, feeling both thrilled and apprehensive.

There were no other teachers in the office at the moment. After sitting down, Teacher Wu Mei first took a sip of tea, then looked at Xiaobai and Liuliu, wanting to say something, but then thought better of it. These two class monitors and vice monitors were both shrewd and clever, and although they were young, they knew everything. No matter how much motivational talk she gave them, it wouldn't have any effect.

She handed the two certificates directly to them: "These are for the two of you. You know why I didn't give them to you in the classroom, but I won't go into too much detail."

Xiaobai and Liuliu were overjoyed and nodded repeatedly as they received the certificate: "We're family, our classmates will be jealous if they find out."

Wu Mei was utterly exasperated. Who's on your side?! Is that the reason?!

Her tone softened as she asked, "Xiaobai, will you stay in Pujiang during winter break? Or will you go back to your hometown in Sichuan?"

"I'm going back to my hometown, taking my father and my little niece with me."

"Be careful on the road. Don't play near rivers or ponds when you get to the countryside; it's dangerous. Where's Liuliu?"

“I’m going back to my hometown too. Don’t worry, Teacher Wu, I definitely won’t go to play by the river or pond.”

"That's good. And don't play with firecrackers."

"Firecrackers? Playing...no, no, definitely not."

Liu Liu made a promise, but her mind was racing. She almost forgot about the firecrackers if Teacher Wu hadn't reminded her.

Teacher Wu continued, "You two didn't do very well on the final exams this semester. You need to work harder next semester. You're the class monitor and vice-monitor I chose. How can you be above average in academics..."

Xiao Bai asked timidly, "Teacher, did I do okay on the test?"

Liuliu immediately stabbed him in the back: "Xiaobai, you have no ambition at all! You only got 88 points in Chinese!! How dare you say you did okay..."

Xiao Bai retorted, "Liuliu, how dare you say that? What was your math score? 77! My goodness! Where's your math teacher? He's not here. He must have been annoyed by you, so he left. You dragged down the class average..."

"...I was careless."

"You weren't careless, you just don't know how to do it, don't make excuses!"

"I am the best actress!"

"You're really something—I'm impressed..."

The two were bickering, and Ms. Wu Mei listened with great interest for a while before her head started to ache.

"Alright, alright, stop talking about it. The results are in the past. Just work hard from now on and learn from your mistakes."

Xiaobai said, "Teacher, please explain to Liuliu what 'knowing shame leads to courage' means, otherwise she won't understand."

Liu Liu was furious: "Little Flower, you only got 88 in Chinese, I got 90!!!"

What was your English score?

"I got 85 points."

"And what about your science?"

What was your English score?

"Tell me your science score first."

Did you get a zero in English?

"Screw you!!!"

"Haha, you really got 0 points???"

"Did you get a zero in science?"

"You got a zero in science!"

"So what score did you get?"

"I got 75 in science."

"You're a terrible student! A total terrible student! Ugh! I'm never playing with you again, you'll drag down my GPA!"

Xiaobai left after saying that, and Liuliu was furious. She had told Xiaobai all her grades, but Xiaobai wasn't going to tell her anything. How could she accept that! She was going to make Xiaobai pay for this today!

"What were your scores in English and Science? Tell me! Tell me, duck—"

Liu Liu chased after Xiao Bai. If Xiao Bai didn't tell her, she'd really be at a huge loss!
