Math, I hate you!
"Lin Mengjin, look at your math score in this exam. Do you think that you are about to take the college entrance examination and graduate, so you will be unscrupulous? You dare to skip my cram school. ”
In the quiet office, the low, angry baritone voice of the math teacher echoed, and the crisp and violent slapping of the table.
"Teacher, don't say that, I...... How dare I! I frowned, and lowered my head as if aggrieved.
"Don't you dare? Would you not dare? I don't think there is anything in this world that you Lin Mengjin dare not do. ”
"Teacher, I was really sick that day! Unbelief...... If you don't believe me, just ask the head teacher! ”
The math teacher squinted at me, a look of disgust that hated iron but not steel.
"Lin Mengjin, you said you, when will you let me read your results to everyone openly. I've heard that cheer so many times, aren't you tired of it? I'm tired of telling you, teacher! ”
Teacher Liu paused, probably scolding thirsty, he picked up the printed teacup on the table, skimmed the tea leaves floating on the water with the tea lid, and poured a whole large sip of tea.
"Lin Mengjin, let me tell you, you write me a letter of guarantee. Promise that you will tutor well, and if you can't get a satisfactory score in the next exam, you can see how I clean you up. He shook his fingers and pointed at me.
"I see, teacher."
I walked to the side, grabbed my pen and expertly wrote down another pledge. I can't count it, this is the first number of math guarantees I have given to "Liu Pao'er" since I was in high school.
I really miss when Mr. Liu taught me math in the first and second years of high school, and he was so gentle at that time.
When I was a freshman in high school, he patted his chest with us and promised that we would all become top math students. Every time the results were announced, he would always pronounce his name and score in his deep and loud baritone voice for the students who did well in the exam. He will also encourage students who do not have satisfactory grades, and after reading their names, they will say cheers.
And because of this, I have received countless voices in the three years of high school to say "come on" from Mr. Liu. So far, he has not had the opportunity to disclose my scores on every test result. In this way, I became the only exception to his chest patting assurance.
In the first and second years of high school, he was kind to me, even if my grades were poor, he just invited me to the office to drink tea, talk about my heart, talk about study, and pour me chicken soup or something.
But since I was in my third year of high school, everything has changed. Maybe he annoyed me, and he quietly turned on Hell Mode for me. All kinds of group tutoring, all kinds of private tutoring pounced on me like a pack of wolves, almost tearing me to pieces.
Despite this, my math grades still didn't improve, and I didn't react yet. But the math teacher is in a hurry than me! Catching me in the office was a scolding. The first time he scolded me, it really scared my legs out of the woods. Since then, his nickname of "Liu Paoer" has also been in my heart.
I don't know why, but I was scolded by him a lot, and I actually got used to it. To be honest, his baritone is deep and affectionate, and he scolds people quite well.
In a few moments, a guarantee of a few hundred words was written. I handed the guarantee to Mr. Liu, then grabbed the ugly math test paper, and left the office in pieces.
I threw my head back, leaned against the outer wall of my office, and let out a long sigh. Suddenly, there was a kind of slackness of the sheep from the tiger's mouth.
"How can this paper be so bad."
I squinted and spread out the roll, which was covered with red crosses, and there wasn't even a full white roll...... It's really hard for me to look at it directly.
If this were to be done in other subjects, I would have to cry to death. But for math, I've long been numb. It's not because I haven't worked hard, but because I've been working hard, but I've never gained anything. I've long been accustomed to it, and this may be like a farmer who can't stop planting crops because of a bad year! You're going to starve to death, but at least you can grow some food if you plant it! Therefore, I can't stop working hard, and I still have to continue to struggle for mathematics with "hard work and no gain".
"You actually ran out of Liu Pao'er's hands so quickly?" Zihui came up to me and leaned against the wall in the same distress as I did.
"I was released after signing a life and death certificate."
I folded the math paper, which I would be sad to hear and cry when I read it, into small pieces and put it in my pocket.
"What are you doing here?"
I fell in love with Zihui, but she stared blankly at the ceiling, and even the corners of her eyes hung with despair.
"Chat with Liu Pao'er, what else can you do."
The corners of Zihui's mouth drooped, with a little crying.
"Mengjin, you must bless me!" She turned around, grabbed my arm and said.
"I'm a mud bodhisattva myself, it's hard to protect myself when I cross the river, what can I bless you! Sisters! ”
"Sister!"
Zihui howled and pounced, and we hugged each other tightly. In the hallway, crying loudly.
"I hate Zu Chongzhi's ......"
"I hate Newton......"
Zihui and I complained one by one, and the howl shook the entire teaching building.
…………
"Running forward, facing cold eyes and ridicule, how can we feel the vastness of life without going through hardships, fate, it can't make us kneel and beg for mercy, even if the blood is sprinkled all over the embrace, keep running, with the pride of a child, how can you see the sparkle of life if you don't stick to the end, it's better to indulge in burning for the sake of the beauty in your heart, uncompromising until you grow old"
After school, the school finally stopped playing English listening and speaking content on the radio station, but played music for the first time in history.
The name of the song is Dream Chasing, and it is indeed quite suitable for motivating high school students to struggle and boost their ambition.
But even though the lyrics and tunes are rekindled, they don't warm my cold heart.
I walked indifferently on the school road with heavy steps towards the Old Huai Bookstore, and my back was all desolate.
There was no wind today, and the wind chimes hanging outside the bookstore no longer rang. Even when I pushed open the door of the bookstore, the crisp sound was insignificant.
"Teacher, do you have any teaching materials for math first aid?"
"What's wrong with you, you're bad at math again?"
"No need for "and", I didn't do well in math! ”
"Eh, it's okay, my sister was exactly the same as you back then. It's coming, and mathematics suddenly broke out during the college entrance examination. Don't worry, it's not a big problem. Go to the innermost bookshelf and take a look at the 38 sets of Tianli! That should be a good fit for you. ”
"Good"
I still didn't have any expression on my face, and I responded to my sister with the breath in my lungs with a cold expression.
I bent over wearily and slowly moved into the darker interior.
I looked around in the rows of bookshelves, but I didn't see any of the Tianli volumes. My fingers slid through the bookshelf for exercises, my eyes wandering around, and I finally found it on the top floor.
I reached upwards with all my might, but I couldn't even touch the bottom of the set. I tensed my toes again and put my feet up, but it was still a big gap.
I changed my approach, I crouched down slightly and jumped up several times. Even though I was out of breath, I didn't pull out a single bit of the set.
"Lian...... If you don't even give me the math papers, it's going to kill me! ”
I panted and clutched at the shelves, persistently, and jumped up in no avail.
Suddenly, a slender hand reached over my head and removed the set.
I turned my head and saw that it was Yu Wei.
"Are you taking this?"
"Right...... That's right! ”
"Here you go!"
He handed me the set of scrolls in his hand, propped one hand on the shelf pole beside me, and smiled innocently at me.
In the dim light, the beads of sweat on his forehead shone slightly. His cheeks were slightly red, his breathing was a little rapid, he kept swallowing saliva, his white neck, and his clear Adam's apple were beating up and down......
"Did you just go to exercise?"
"No, I heard Zihui say that you came to the bookstore, so I ran over!"
"Oh~"
I covered most of my face with the roll, and only showed a pair of eyes looking at him. Under the cover of the roll, the corners of my mouth rose exaggeratedly and presumptuously. The cold heart, for some reason, instantly became hot again, beating violently.
Yu Wei and I looked at each other, and in the dim yellow light, everything seemed a little ambiguous...... And I was immersed in it.
Yu Wei, did he come here to find me on purpose? He...... He must like me, right?
"Yumejin?"
"Yumejin?"
His familiar call pulled me back from my fantasy.
"Hmm...... Well, what's wrong! ”
"Why don't I help you with math in the future, every day after school, in the library."
"Yes...... May I? Aren't you afraid that I'm too stupid to teach? ”
After listening to my words, he smiled. Reached out and touched my head and played with my bangs with his fingers.
"How can you be stupid, in the class, you are my most respected opponent."
"Really!"
I stared at him with round eyes. His eyes lit up with hope.
"Really! Let me tutor you, we can get stronger. ”
"Yes, yes!"
Under the light, his smiling eyes were full of affection, and his tea-black pupils were like a crystal, which was full of affection that intoxicated me......
The breeze outside the store blew softly again, and the wind chimes on the door rang again......
