Chapter 15: The Teacher is Blocked

"Mom, thank you for your hard work. These are my monthly exam results. My Chinese, math and English scores are better than last time, and my class ranking has also improved." Gu Jiayu held up her report card. "If I hadn't been so careless about the last big math question, I would have gotten a much better score."

Mother Gu looked at the three papers. The pleasing Arabic numerals made her happy. It didn’t matter whether there were questions or not. The important thing was the points.

"That's right," said Gu's mother with a smile. "Okay, I'll return your phone to you in a moment, but you're facing the transition from the first year to the second year of junior high school, which is very important, so don't just play with your phone."

"Hey, thank you, Mom," Gu Jiayu said happily, "Then Mom, you said that I would do well in the exam and promised me the computer..."

Hearing the word "computer", Mother Gu's smile faded, "I promised, but if you play computer now, you will be more likely to focus on playing games, which will definitely be bad for your studies, so I will buy it for you when you are promoted to the second grade of junior high school."

"Ah - but we clearly agreed on this." Gu Jiayu pouted unhappily.

"Here's what I'm going to say," said Gu's mother, "If you can still make progress in the midterm exam, I'll buy it for you."

"We agreed that you can't go back on your word this time!" said Gu Jiayu.

"Of course not. When has mom ever lied to you?" Mother Gu said firmly.

She always lies. Gu Jiayu thought about it but didn't say it out loud. This time, seeing her mother's words were so convincing, she believed it again.

"Mom, my birthday is on Saturday. Should I ask my brother to come over?" Gu Jiayu mentioned another thing.

"..." Mother Gu paused and said, "Your brother is going to take the high school entrance exam and is busy reviewing. Don't disturb him at this time."

"Oh." Gu Jiayu nodded.

In fact, Gu's mother felt that her eldest son Gu Lu had poor academic performance and was worried that her daughter would learn bad things from Gu Lu.

"Go call your brother Yangyang. Let's go out for a big dinner today to celebrate Jiayu's good results." said Gu's mother.

Brother Yangyang is Xiao Yang, Gu Jiayu’s half-brother. He is also in the third year of junior high school this year. His academic performance is very good and his goal for the high school entrance examination is to enter Bashu Middle School.

Bashu Middle School is one of the best high schools in the foggy city. The full score for the high school entrance exam is 750, and the admission score for Bashu is over ... Gu's mother wants her daughter to play with Yangyang more.

As the saying goes, "Birds of a feather flock together." Yangyang is the pig, no, it's the red pig, and Gu Lu is naturally the black pig.

His grades were okay in the first year of junior high school, but now they are getting worse and worse. In Gu's mother's eyes, he is becoming more and more like his father.

As the saying goes, if you don’t sleep at night, you will be sleepy during morning classes.

Gu Lu saw his classmate Wang Han sitting in the front row. His head felt like it weighed a thousand pounds and due to gravity, he couldn't help but want to lean against the table.

The original owner was quite familiar with Wang Han because he was the "savior of poor students". Not all the homework assigned in Chinese, mathematics and English could be completed without thinking, and some exercise books still required some time.

Poor students would borrow Wang Han's homework to copy it if they couldn't do it. But even so, Wang Han didn't have many friends in the class because he had unique interests and hobbies - he loved to learn about history. He read the history textbook countless times and even saved money to buy history extracurricular reading materials.

"Rustle, rustle--" the familiar sound of a hamster eating.

My desk mate started eating snacks during class again. The snacks were Xiao Fugui, the divine chef. This time, I didn’t ask him whether he wanted to eat them or not.

Since the "breakup", classmate Zhou Lin hasn't spoken to him for two days. In the past, Gu Lu's elbow would occasionally go beyond the scope of his desk, but now it is no longer possible. There is an invisible 38th parallel between them.

It was time to use some small moves. During the break, while his deskmate was in the toilet, Gu Lu tightened the lid of her water cup with all his might.

Then Gu Lu tried to unscrew it himself - it was very tight and he couldn't unscrew it without trying hard.

Perfect.

Putting the water cup back in place, Gu Lu knew that his deskmate was a "water buffalo" who drank a lot of water every day. The opportunity to show off soon came. In the next class, Zhou Lin picked up the water cup and twisted it - no response.

Then Gu Lu saw Zhou Lin wrap the lid with a tissue and then unscrew it with some force.

"!" Gu Lu's pupils dilated. Even if the paper towel could increase the friction, it would still take a lot of effort. Is she a girl with super strength?
Could it be that the legend on the Internet is true, that women are just pretending to be weak in front of boys, but in fact they can lift your skull off!
It’s lunch break time again.

"Zhou Lin, come quickly with me." Ren Jie's expression showed that she didn't have enough time to get in the car.

"Wait a minute," Zhou Lin said, "Nothing is more important than my meal. If I go too late, there will be no meat."

"Someone wants to confess his love to the big girl!"

Big Girl is definitely a nickname. She is a friend of Zhou Lin and Ren Jie and they live in the same dormitory. Ren Jie heard about the confession.

"What are you waiting for? Let's go!" Zhou Lin didn't even bother to eat. He went to the playground to watch the fun first and rushed to the playground in a hurry.

"Wait, what's that on your back?" Ren Jie took off the label from her back.

【Harmony symbol, harmony and peace】

It was obviously the handwriting of his deskmate, who had become quite familiar with it over the past two weeks. Zhou Lin chuckled when he saw this, then put the note paper in his pocket and continued to jog towards the playground.

When it’s time to confess to a girl, she must be there!
The affection between middle and high school students comes and goes quickly.

Maybe I really fell in love because of a small thing. I fell in love very easily. On the one hand, it was because I was ignorant at that time, and on the other hand... young people are too energetic.

Are you right, Zhao Juan?
"Gu Lu has been quiet for a while." Zhao Juan was complaining to her sisters while eating in the cafeteria.

Chen Na raised a possibility, "Could it be that Fan Xiaotian didn't tell Gu Lu at all?"

"It seems possible. I'll ask him during the afternoon class." Zhao Juan said, "If not, I'll ask him to talk to Gu Lu."

"Do you like Gu Lu because of that incident?" Chen Na was curious.

"I can't say I like him. I was very scared when the old witch asked me that, and then he stood up to help me," Zhao Juan said. "I had never thought about it before, so I wanted to talk more."

Chen Na agreed with this point. Gu Lu was just an invisible person in the class.

"If you want to chat, it's time soon. The high school entrance exam is coming up soon, and then you'll go to high school." Chen Na said, "It will be inconvenient to have a long-distance relationship then."

It makes sense. For junior and senior high school students, different schools mean different locations.

"He is actually quite smart. As long as he studies hard, he may be able to get into a school. I can supervise him in his studies," said Zhao Juan.

This is asking too much, and you haven't even started yet, and you're already thinking about supervising others' studies. Chen Na complained inwardly.

Speaking of the high school entrance exam, Zhao Juan also remembered something, "By the way, did you understand what the teacher said today?"

"I roughly understand." Chen Na nodded.

Chen Na is known as "Sister Nana" in the world. She is the monitor of Class 5 and has excellent grades.

"I don't quite understand..." Zhao Juan asked, the math class representative is not necessarily the one with the best math grades, this principle does not need to be explained
Zhao Juan and Chen Na talked about mathematics, and the rest is something from another field, so I won’t go into details.

Before the afternoon class started, Gu Lu took his homework book and blocked Teacher Li... No, he found him. The word "blocked" sounded like he was going to hit someone.
