Chapter 78 - Farewell, Teacher (2/2)

“Since I have registered for those exams, it means I am confident of pa.s.sing them. You are my teacher, shouldn’t you have more confidence in your student?”

Mrs. Ke scoffed at Ye Jian as she handed in her registration form of the compet.i.tion of the Provincial Experimental No.1 Middle School.

“Physics, Chemistry, Math, and English. Do you think you are a genius? You are registering for all of them?!” said Mrs. Ke contemptuously. She was furious at Ye Jian’s composure. “You are already a disgrace in our school! Do not let other schools know that you are a shame!”

To Mrs. Ke, Ye Jian was like a fish bone stuck in her throat. She could neither swallow it nor spit it out! It was so uncomfortable to face this obstacle every day!

“Even if I embarra.s.s myself, it’s my business. What does it have anything to do with you?” said Ye Jian, smiling and gazing at her teacher. The bright and optimistic look on her face made her seem more poised than her teacher. Her neither haughty nor humble att.i.tude also won her the affections from the teachers of other cla.s.ses.

Ye Jian was hoping that she could be the Top Three in one of the subjects. Now that Mrs. Ke was deliberately making things difficult for her, Ye Jian made up her mind that she would excel in every single exam!

She started to like slapping others in the face.

Tossing her registration form into a drawer, Mrs. Ke said scornfully with a straight face, “You never listen to your teachers’ advice. If you are conceited enough to embarra.s.s yourself among other schools, what else can I say?”

Laughing, other teachers responded one by one. “Mrs. Ke, I would be more than grateful if I had such an audacious student in my cla.s.s! You must be very happy in your mind.”

“That’s right. It’s a good thing for students to have ambition. And as teachers, we must support them. If she does well in the exams, isn’t she bringing honor to you and our school as well?”

The speeches of her colleagues made Mrs. Ke swallow her bitterness in silence. She would have been elated if any other student was so ambitious!

However, that student must not be Ye Jian!

What Mrs. Ke didn’t know was that the more obstacles Ye Jian encountered, the stronger she would become. If anyone tried to give her a hard time, she would toughen herself.
