Chapter Forty-Seven: Teacher Helen's High Hopes

"Morning!" Mu Qingcheng greeted with a smile.

"Morning~~" Karina didn't dare to look at Mu Qingcheng, and lowered her head.

Mu Qingcheng only thought that Karina was worried about the huge debt at home, so he asked with concern: "What's wrong with your family?"

"I didn't ...... It's okay, thank you~~" Karina replied stiffly.

At this moment, even a blind person could see that something was wrong with Karina, and Mu Qingcheng looked carefully, Karina had a pair of dark circles under her eyes, her expression was haggard, and there was no brilliance in her blue eyes.

"Karina, what the hell is going on, you tell me. Mu Qingcheng asked urgently.

"I'm fine, I'm fine, don't ask. Karina shook her head violently.

Before Mu Qingcheng could be asked, Teacher Helen had already walked in with the documents, so he had to keep his mouth shut for the time being.

Helen glanced at Mu Qingcheng and began to lecture, it seemed that in her eyes, more than thirty people in the class were air, and only Mu Qingcheng was her student.

Mu Qingcheng also lived up to Helen's high expectations, listened carefully and took notes, but Karina was obviously absent-minded, and secretly glanced at Mu Qingcheng several times, looking like she wanted to speak and stopped, and it was difficult to speak.

Unconsciously, after the first half of the class, Helen asked Mu Qingcheng: "Mu Qingcheng, it's almost a month, how is your paper?"

Mu Qingcheng took out a stack of handwritten manuscripts from his bag and said, "It's finished, I'm about to hand it over to you." ”

"Alright, come with me to the office. Helen nodded, and went out on high heels, Mu Qingcheng was going to ask Karina what was going on, but at this time, he could only follow Helen to the office.

Helen pushed open the door, beckoned Mu Qingcheng to sit down, and said, "Show me." ”

Mu Qingcheng handed over the manuscript, which was fifteen pages in total.

"It's actually handwritten?" Helen looked at Mu Qingcheng in surprise.

In fact, writing papers in these years, handwriting manuscripts is almost extinct, after all, the printouts are clear and tidy, and the reading experience is smooth, but Mu Qingcheng doesn't have a computer, and typing on a mobile phone is not as good as handwriting, but the manuscript is not messy, and the lines of letters are like flowing water, which looks pleasing to the eye.

"Hmm~~" Helen nodded with satisfaction, looking carefully page by page, she felt that if she scored according to her attitude, Mu Qingcheng could score a hundred points.

Gradually, Helen's eyebrows twisted slightly, and it took about ten minutes before she put down the paper and said, "Mu Qingcheng, if this is a graduation thesis, then I congratulate you, you passed." ”

"Thank you, Teacher Helen. Mu Qingcheng smiled and thanked him.

"Don't be too happy. Helen waved her hand: "But by my standards for you, this paper is completely unqualified." “

"This ......"

Mu Qingcheng's heart was cold, and he looked at Helen with wide eyes.

Helen said earnestly: "Mu Qingcheng, with your learning attitude and thinking ability, you shouldn't write so superficially, judging from your writing, you wrote with your heart, so the problem can only lie in one aspect, your knowledge is too narrow." “

Mu Qingcheng smiled bitterly: "Teacher Helen, I am Chinese, I have received oriental cultural education since I was a child, I can only say a little bit about Western civilization, it is not easy for me to speak fluent English, I think this paper is my limit, even if I take it back and rewrite it, I can't write better." “

Helen nodded and said, "Yes, I agree with you, the only way to solve your problem is to expand your knowledge, and the root cause is that you don't know Greek and ancient Semitic." “

As she spoke, Helen's slender eyes narrowed slightly, and she looked at Mu Qingcheng with a burning look, her fingertips skillfully turning the pen, as if she was calculating something.

Mu Qingcheng only felt that his scalp was gradually numb, and a chill began to rise from the penultimate quarter of his backbone.

After a while, Helen said: "Mu Qingcheng, I appreciate you very much, and I am willing to do my best to help you, so let's go home with me after school this Friday, and I will make up Greek and ancient Semitic for you." ”

"What?Teacher Helen, I'll go home with you?" Mu Qingcheng's buttocks slipped and he almost fell off the chair, his face was full of disbelief, and he still had a strange feeling in his heart.

After all, this is the United States, and countless Chinese otaku are full of yearning for the teacher-student love in the United States, and at this time, a beautiful teacher asked herself to go to her house on Friday night, Mu Qingcheng couldn't help but think about it.

Helen also realized the gaffe, and her delicate face turned slightly red, so she straightened her face and said: "I live with my father, and I will teach you Greek, my father is an expert in Semitic languages, and he will personally teach you ancient Semitic." “

Mu Qingcheng was a little disappointed for no reason, but then he secretly scolded Damn, he already has Karina, how can he think about Teacher Helen, he feels that love must be loyal to each other, he can't be sorry for Karina, and a look of shame welled up on his face.

Helen thought that this shame was due to her gaffe, and she was even more satisfied with Mu Qingcheng in her heart, so she nodded and added: "In this world, there are not more than a hundred people who can read ancient Semitic language, and my father is the authority among them, I introduced you to him on Friday, I hope you don't miss the opportunity." ”

Mu Qingcheng returned to reality, suddenly felt that his head was big, and said cautiously: "Teacher Helen, my studies are already heavy enough, if I add Greek and ancient Semitic, I am worried...... will disappoint you and your father, can I think about it?"

Helen's face sank immediately: "Mu Qingcheng, if a person wants to succeed, external help is indispensable, but his own perseverance is the decisive factor, I thought you were a studious and motivated student, and I once treated you differently, but you disappointed me too much."

If you don't want to study, I won't force you, and it won't have any effect on your credits, okay, let's go back to the classroom. After speaking, he picked up the information, turned around and left.

Obviously, Teacher Helen was angry, and Mu Qingcheng was very uneasy when he made the teacher angry, especially the beautiful teacher.

In fact, don't think that the ancient Semitic language can be understood by less than 100 people in the world, so take him seriously, after all, the endangered language can not be generalized, although the vast majority of it is worthless, and no one knows it in the long history, but the Semitic people are the ancestors of the Jews and Arabs, so the documentary value and archaeological significance of the ancient Semitic language is very large, and it is at least a craft that can be eaten as a meal.

'Forget it, just learn, at least you don't suffer. Mu Qingcheng gritted his teeth and called, "Teacher Helen, I am willing to learn." “

Helen paused, looked back and smiled, like an iceberg thawing, her tense face suddenly brightened, with some smugness in her smile, but also with some narrowness of conspiracy, and then turned her head away.

Mu Qingcheng was infected by his smile, and he was stunned for a moment!

......

Back in the classroom, Helen was obviously in a good mood, and the speed of the lecture was faster, but Karina was still uneasy, and soon, at the end of the second half of the class, Helen and her classmates left one after another, and only Mu Qingcheng and Karina were left in the classroom.

Karina held her schoolbag, her eyes flickered, she didn't dare to look at Mu Qingcheng, and her haggard face gradually showed a look of struggle and guilt.

Mu Qingcheng asked, "Karina, do you have something?"

"I ......," Karina looked puzzled.

Mu Qingcheng held Karina's hand and smiled: "Karina, if you are in trouble, you should share it with me, come, let's go out to eat first, and you can talk to me while walking." ”

"No, don't!" Karina retracted her hand sharply, and then said word by word like an endorsement: "Mu Qingcheng, we ...... Let's break up!"
