“Year 3 Class 1?” Jin Xi looked at the sign at the classroom door and muttered to herself.

Wu Yuyao thought that Jin Xi was jealous of Jin Yingying, and her eyes were full of disgust, “forget it. Year 3 Class 1 is the genius class. Only the top 30 students can enter.”

“With your results, you should be thankful that you can get into the last class!”

The gap between Class 1 and Class 9 was big.

The corners of Jin Xi’s lips lifted slightly as she retracted her gaze. She was not jealous of Jin Yingying, but was instead looking at the Feng Shui of the class.

The classroom was south-facing, and the five elements were water. It would be great if it had the number “5” that represented the wood element or “9” that represented the gold element, but instead, it had the number “1” that represented the water element. Coincidentally, the word “genius” represented the fire element, which was incompatible with water. This class would definitely be in trouble in the future!

“Class is about to start, why aren’t you leaving?” Wu Yuyao impatiently urged, “I have an appointment at the hairdresser today, I don’t have much time to waste!”

Jin Xi didn’t say anything. She slowly followed Wu Yuyao to the Academic Affairs Office.

The one who received them was a male teacher named Liu Tao. He greeted Wu Yuyao warmly, then looked at the information in his hand and couldn’t help frowning. He was the head teacher of Year 3 Class 9, and thought that he had seen countless poor-performing students, but he didn’t expect that there would be a student as bad as Jin Xi. Not only did she not graduate from primary school, but she also scored zeros in her last primary school exam! He was now very regretful. Why didn’t he reject the principal’s arrangement for Jin Xi to be in his class? However, it was too late to say anything now.

“Ahem, Jin Xi, I’ve learned about your previous results. It’s not ideal, but it’s fine. As long as you’re willing to work hard, you can still catch up with everyone,” Liu Tao braced himself and said. After all, as a teacher, no matter how good or bad the results were, he couldn’t hurt the student’s feelings.

Hearing this, Jin Xi was a little surprised. She looked up at Liu Tao. The man in front of her had very fair skin and was a little chubby. His eyes were clear. From his appearance, he was a kind person. However, the tail of his right eyebrow was messy and dark, with a faint sign of a broken eyebrow. This was a sign of a recent death in the family.

“Teacher Liu, may I ask if your mother is still alive?” Jin Xi asked.

Liu Tao was stunned for a moment, but he replied politely, “yes, my mother is 69 years old. She’s in good health. Before she went to work today, she even told me to buy some sweet potatoes for her after work!”

Jin Xi made a guess in her heart and said indifferently, “if you trust me, don’t go out to buy potatoes after work. Just go home.”

Liu Tao was confused. Wouldn’t his mother nag him all day long when he got home without the potatoes? He did not understand why a student would say such things to him.

Wu Yuyao said impatiently, “Jin Xi, shut up!”

It was her first day reporting to school, and she had said such weird things. She was really embarrassed!

“Madam Jin, it’s alright. Don’t be so fierce to the child!” Liu Tao quickly advised. He had a good temper and was not angry at Jin Xi’s words.

“You must be patient when educating your children. Otherwise, it will affect their growth. If that happens, you’ll be an incompetent parent,” Liu Tao continued to persuade her. He was not a person who would bend to power, so even in the face of a rich lady like Madam Jin, he was blunt. This was also the reason why Jin Xi was willing to help him.

“Jin Xi.” Liu Tao chuckled and patted Jin Xi’s shoulder, “wait for me here. I’ll finish today’s lesson and bring you to class.”

“Alright,” she said. Jin Xi nodded slightly and turned to look at Wu Yuyao. “Your job is done, bye.”

Hearing this, Wu Yuyao was furious. Not only did she not have any respect for her mother, but she also tried to drive her away. She really had no manners at all!

“Fine, I’ll leave now!” After Wu Yuyao finished speaking, she glared at Jin Xi and left the Academic Affairs Office.

…

Meanwhile, Jin Yingying had just entered the class when she was stopped by a tall male student. The male student stuffed a bottle of drink into her hand and said, “Yingying, I heard that this drink is very nutritious. Drink it quickly, so you can definitely win the championship this afternoon!”
