Chapter 59 Half True
Chapter 59 Half True
"This is a good student from our No. 37 Middle School, who knows how to respect his teachers." Principal Liu praised. If he doesn't even respect his class teacher, how can he respect his alma mater?
The reason why so many teachers were called here this time was to discuss another matter. Principal Liu wanted to revise the admission profile of No. 37 Middle School.
It is not popular for schools to create official websites nowadays, they all create brochures.
He wanted to add an "Outstanding Graduates" column to the booklet, adding the names of an entrepreneur (a rich second-generation) who graduated from No. 37 Middle School, as well as Gu Lu.
The former is willing to donate a sum of money, and the latter is the first winner of the Leaf Cup first prize in Fog City. Both are outstanding talents trained by No. 37 Middle School.
All the teachers present felt that Principal Liu's reform methods were too radical. He had only been in office for half a semester when he began to implement the policy of "one good and one bad, never abandon or give up", reassigned all the classes in the school, and changed the salaries of the teachers responsible for campus cleaning, security and life.
The teachers' feelings are just feelings, not something they will actually express, so Principal Liu's proposal was unanimously agreed upon.
The playground was empty and no classes were having physical education classes.
Just like the sky today, cloudless.
In Class 5, we just had a Chinese class, and the next class will still be Chinese.
"Student Gu Lu will not be coming to school for the next four or five days. Like Wang Hongming, they have been confirmed to be admitted and do not need to take the high school entrance examination." Teacher Li said to Chen Na, "Don't record lateness anymore."
According to the rules of Class 5, students who are late for class three times will be punished by standing.
Wang Hongming, a student with specialty in dance, has not been to school for a week. No one knows which school he has been admitted to as the teacher did not tell us.
"Ah!" Fan Xiaotian opened his mouth wide.
Zhou Lin glanced at the empty desk. It would be so boring to be alone in class without a deskmate.
That’s great, he was admitted to high school. Zhao Juan was happy for Gu Lu, but she also wanted to know what school it was.
"Nan Gu and Bei Wang, Gu Lu is gone, so I am the only one left as the brightest twin stars of Class Five?" Wang Jianhua suddenly felt lonely as a master.
Upon hearing the bad news, Zhang Yudong didn't even notice that the private (rubber) in front of him fell down, and didn't care about Lu Zai. He just felt that it was not fun anymore.
"He should come to the wrap party. He's already paid for it." Ren Jie muttered softly.
"The big shot in the class is not coming." Wang Wenjun murmured.
Tang Jingjing's eyes sparkled, and she was thinking about spreading the news.
The rest of the students also talked about it.
Teacher Li on the podium was very surprised. When did Gu Lu become an important figure in the class? Usually, Wang Hongming didn't come and there was not much movement.
Putting all these puzzles aside for the time being, Teacher Li glanced at the loudest student, Ren Jie, and shouted, "Stop talking and continue the class."
The classroom became quiet and the lesson continued. Like other teachers, Teacher Li spent the remaining time helping students fill in the gaps.
One less day to prepare for the exam.
The students were given one more day.
A new day came. The students in Class 5 suddenly shouted during the morning reading break.
This attracted Teacher Li to come over to check, "Gu Lu? Are you coming to school to pack your things?"
Teacher Li also said that it would be almost the same if we just packed everything together when we return to school.
"There is a beginning and an end." Gu Lu responded, "And there are free books to read in class. You can return them to the teacher after you finish reading."
"Okay, go back to your seats." Teacher Li didn't point it out, nor did he ask any further questions.
Gu Lu returned to his seat and most of the students in Class 5 welcomed him.
Everyone loves him and flowers bloom when he sees them, Gu Lu sighed in his heart. At his age, he has to bear the handsomeness that is not mature enough for his age.
very tired!
No kidding, let me tell you something real. With the improvement of living standards over the past month, Gu Lu didn't notice whether he had grown taller, but his appearance had improved. In the past, he was very thin, short, and looked a bit like a dried monkey because of his prominent cheekbones. Now, his face has some flesh and he looks pretty.
The deskmate who was lost and found again - this idiom is a bit strange, but anyway, he could get the spirit of it. Zhou Lin immediately took out his little notebook and started chatting.
Given the frequency with which the two of them passed notes, Zhou Lin's notebook was filled up with notes for half a class.
After class, familiar and unfamiliar classmates swarmed around. This is the value of being the center of the class.
"Oh? Didn't Teacher Li say yesterday that you didn't have to come to school?" Zhang Yudong asked.
"Because Guru couldn't bear to see me being lonely at school, he came to school to keep me company." Fan Xiaotian responded helpfully, "This is what Guru told me when I was chatting with him on QQ yesterday."
Zhang Yudong smiled, "Do you believe it?"
"Why don't you believe it?" Fan Xiaotian held Gu Lu in his arms. "We are brothers, right, Gu Lu?"
Xiaotian also became familiar with Zhang Yudong, Chen Xue and others, and gradually became cheerful.
"Yes, Xiaotian is right." Gu Lu nodded. He had stayed at home on the weekend before.
Mobile data is expensive, and I don’t have any friends outside of school, so the only form of entertainment left is reading.
Tell me, where is reading not reading? Gu Lu thought and went back to the classroom.
There are only a few days left until the high school entrance examination.
"Take a look." Fan Xiaotian said proudly.
"You're not smart." Chen Xue said to Xiaotian with a pout.
Everyone was talking and laughing, but Zhao Juan, who had been wanting to ask about the recommended school, was now scared. The person involved was there, so she sat obediently in her seat and only glanced in the direction of Gu Lu.
"You've already been admitted, so why are you still here? You're completely overshadowing my brilliance." Wang Jianhua was also staring at this side from his seat.
On the other hand, the admissions office of No. 8 Middle School is also progressing in an orderly manner. Only by reaching an agreement with parents as soon as possible can they avoid being intercepted.
Father Gu just had a drink with his joint venture partner yesterday - you should ask what kind of partner it is, they are in the soy sauce business together.
He got up shakily after a hangover, and Gu's father found himself at his friend Changmao's house - birds of a feather flock together, and his friend was also an alcoholic.
"Drinking fake wine will make your head feel dizzy." Changmao shook his head.
The only thing he called wrong was his name, not his nickname. His long hair was a non-mainstream hairstyle, and his shaking head looked like a mop dancing.
"How can it be fake wine?" Gu's father retorted, "It's obviously half-real wine."
"Yes, yes, the bottle is real, the box is real, even the bag is real, only the wine is fake." Changmao felt a headache and went to the kitchen sink, gulping down the water from the faucet.
"It's not that we can't afford the real wine, it's just that the semi-real wine is better." Father Gu said, "This is what my friend bought directly for me. The taste is no different. No one can tell the difference even if I give it to someone else."
"You don't drink the gift, you're obviously a snake." Changmao said, "There's a dinner party tonight, let's go together."
"Okay, I'll take a shower first." Father Gu glanced at the time on his mobile phone. It was four o'clock in the afternoon. He got up early today and could still see the sun.
Longhair's home was a perfect example of what you would expect from a drunkard: it was a mess with dirty clothes piled on the sofa, stools, chairs, and anywhere except the bed.
The phone rang and Father Gu hung up directly.
"Why don't you answer it?" Changmao asked.
"I received a call yesterday and he said he was the director of the admissions office. He's a liar," Gu's father explained.
