Chapter 20: Awkward
English class was originally Liu Shu's favorite class, but after that incident and the recent rumors on campus, he really didn't dare to face Teacher Chen Xuejiao calmly, and even didn't dare to raise her hand to answer every time she asked a question in class.
Helplessly, he bowed his head and sighed softly, and gradually felt some sympathy in his heart, Lin Xiran, who had been shrinking in the corner of the classroom, in fact, after getting along for two semesters, he also knew that she was no different from other students, simple and kind, and even more honest and clumsy than other students.
But I still have a grudge about that incident in my heart, after all, before that woman appeared, although my parents always quarreled, although they chose not to return for many days after each quarrel, it was still a home after all.
There are still a few times a month when a family of three sits in the dining room, and although they are speechless, although the busiest person in the empty house is the aunt, the family is still healthy and intact.
I still remember that the appearance of the woman that day completely shattered all this, and my mother left noisily and noisily with a huge sum of money, and from that day on, the woman took away her father, who didn't often appear at home, leaving him alone in the empty villa.
And the daughter of that person, who is the culprit, appears in front of him every day, and from time to time she plays a pitiful and pitiful appearance that does not understand the world, how can he not be disgusted, so that he is angry with her?
"In the next time, the teacher prepared an English game for everyone, so I asked Lin Xiran, who has not answered class questions, to come up and help the teacher."
After Chen Xuejiao's steady tone was stated, everyone including Liu Shu and others turned their eyes to the classmate Lin Xiran, who had been hiding in the corner of the classroom and had been very quiet, although there was a great confusion in their hearts, but as long as Lin Xiran refused to answer Chen Xuejiao's question before contacting, it was not difficult to understand.
However, everyone is more curious about Lin Xiran's next move, you must know that she has always refused to answer any teacher's class questions, if she refuses Teacher Chen Xuejiao again this time, will she annoy Teacher Chen because of this?
Then the question arises, how will the school deal with a student like her who has no respect for her elders and does not know how to respect teachers?
Dissuasion or punishment?
Combined with the recent gossip on campus, it is no wonder that she was born in such a family, after all, her mother can be a junior and destroy other people's families, what can't she do, I'm afraid that it will only be more crazy in time!
Lin Xiran, who was suddenly named by Teacher Chen and began to panic, raised his head and instantly lowered his head and retracted into the desk when he looked at the eyes of everyone watching the play, wishing that he could really plunge into the desk and hide at this time.
The back arched like an ostrich, causing everyone to laugh, if it weren't for Mr. Chen still standing on the podium, he was afraid that everyone's laughter would be even more and comment a few words.
Xu Mo's hand holding the ballpoint pen tightened, and his eyes stared coldly at her clumsy and lowered her head to shrink her shell, there is a saying that hatred of iron does not become steel, and it is more appropriate to use it at this time, full of annoyance with the ridicule of her classmates, and even more annoyed by her cowardice!
If she were stronger and braver, wouldn't standing in front of the podium the best response to everyone's ridicule as long as she was willing to step forward and stand in front of the podium?
But she shrunk herself into the desk and did the stupidest thing awkwardly, sensitively receiving the whispers and ridicule of everyone, so that she didn't even have the courage to raise her head and face everyone.
"Quiet! Everyone knows that our classmate Lin Xiran is shy, so we invited her with the most enthusiastic applause. ”
Teacher Chen Xuejiao's sudden shout suddenly quieted the classroom, and then I don't know who started to applaud and then the sparse applause in the classroom joined, and the applause overshadowed the previous ridicule and occupied the entire classroom.
Lin Xiran raised his head hesitantly, and what caught his eyes was no longer the eyes of the surrounding classmates watching the play, but a white light blue shirt with a black women's professional coat, and his eyes slowly moved up to the magnified version of the baby face.
Teacher Chen?
looked at Teacher Chen Xuejiao opposite suspiciously, her face burned with embarrassment, and the palms of her overlapping hands were occupied by the dampness and trembled slightly.
"Lin Xiran, is it okay to play English games with everyone?"
The white palm spread out in front of him, Lin Xiran hesitated to put his right hand in the palm of his hand, bit his lower lip, and looked at Teacher Chen Xuejiao beside him timidly, worried about whether the originally wet palm would wet Teacher Chen's clean palm.
With the movement of her feet step by step, Lin Xiran felt as if she was on the cotton cloud at this time, her feet were soft, everything seemed to be like in a dream, and the little angel took her to stand at the highest point and look at everyone confidently.
"Okay, let's start with Lin Xiran speaking a word now, and then the other students will follow the word ending."
Different from the dream, Lin Xiran in reality blinked at Teacher Chen Xuejiao beside her, and after hearing her say the rules, she timidly looked at the students in the audience and hesitated for a few seconds, then lowered her head and looked at the high heels on Teacher Chen Xuejiao's feet and said, "stiletto." ”
Before the soft voice reached the ears of the classmates in the back row, Xu Mo suddenly got up and said lightly, "Ostrich." ”
Ostrich is his perfect interpretation of Lin Xiran's previous actions, but he was too anxious to raise his hand, and he looked a little embarrassed in front of everyone, especially Teacher Chen Xuejiao's eyes looking at him were a little complicated.
However, he didn't care about these, he just wanted to tell Lin Xiran not to escape like an ostrich anymore, many things are not so terrible to face, but the self-imagination of hiding magnifies everything.
Just as most of the students in the audience are not malicious at this moment, as long as she is willing to raise her head and face the cowardice in her heart, it will disappear at any time, as long as she has the courage to take this step, she can get along happily with most of her classmates.
However, the reality always backfired, when Xu Mo blurted out Ostrich's words, Lin Xiran's hands were obviously tight, and she was sensitive, completely mistaken for his kindness, but thought that it was just his evaluation of her, and there was no spur.
Especially when he quietly looked at him, he didn't understand the heaviness in Xu Mo's eyes at all, but mistakenly thought that he and other classmates generally used this word to mock and define her, of course, this is also the definition of her own heart.
The difference is that the things that people care about are often the most hurtful, so that after that, Lin Xiran, the solitaire of his classmates, was in a state of distraction, watching every move on a desk from time to time with the corner of his eye.
The scenes between the two fell into the eyes of Teacher Chen Xuejiao at all, and suddenly a bold idea came to her heart, if it is properly controlled, it can not only overcome Lin Xiran's social barriers, cowardice, and maybe also achieve their future for each other.
