Chapter 9 - Desk Partner (1/2)
Chapter 9: Desk Partner
Unfortunately, the worst student at English in this group happened to be Huang Shao who was fifth in line. At this moment he is very busy calculating which question would be his and quickly turning around to other classmates asking them what they wrote and why they chose it.
After finally obtaining the answer, the third student wasn’t able to provide an adequate answer and the teacher said: “Next student, answer the same question.”
Huang Shao: “………..”
Once again he searched around frantically for the answer to the fourth question.
Once it was his turn, the teacher looked over and smiled: “Dear, after working so hard did you manage to get the correct answer?”
Huang Shao stood up bitterly. He couldn’t straighten his back and with eyes filled with sadness he looked up at the podium while internally cursing out the teacher – A devil. Such a devil.
“Teacher, I don’t know….”
The English teacher: “Please speak English.” (KKnotes: Spoken in English.)
Huang Shao: “….. Sorry, I don’t know.” (KKnotes: As above.)
His face was bitter and his face had wrinkled up into a big meat bun. The other students couldn’t help but snicker at his misfortune. Even his desk partner Jiang Yang sprawled across the table secretly laughing at him. Huang Shao glared at him but this only made him laugh harder.
Unfortunately, less than two seconds later he couldn’t laugh anymore.
System: “Random task: Please become Qin Xu’s desk partner. Time limit is one day. If you fail there will be a punishment. Punishment: While the national flag is raised on Monday, before all the teachers and students of the school, shout out —- Qin Xu, I want to be your friend.”
Jiang Yang: “…..Fuck!”
He couldn’t help but swear out loud. He wanted to beat up the system; beat it up until even the original manufacturer would not be willing to accept it back.
This punishment is too extreme.
Jiang Yang was too agitated by the news and didn’t control the volume of his voice well. The teacher at the podium heard his words and slowly looked over to him: “Jiang Yang, stand up.”
With a dark expression, Jiang Yang slowly stood up.
“As I have said before, I want you to use English as much as you can when you’re in my class. So Jiang Yang, can you express what you have just said in English?”
Jiang Yang: “……….” His expression had gradually become one similar to those of Huang Shao’s.
Under the ardent encouragement from the English teacher, Jiang Yang very reluctantly responded: “…..Shit.” (KKnotes: Spoken in English.)
“Almost, but to be more accurate it could be holy shit or bloody hell. I’m sure you all have watched plenty of British and American shows so you can pay attention to how they say it. I know most of the boys here are in the science stream and many don’t like to learn English so I won’t talk about how it will be benefit you in the future when you start working but it is very fulfilling when you become able to watch the shows without the need for subtitles and travel overseas without needing a translator. I hope you all study hard. I can assure you that this won’t do you any harm.”
The English teacher said this slowly and only allowed Huang Shao and Jiang Yang sit back down when she was done. She then proceeded on to the next classmate.
After a stimulating English lesson, Huang Shao finally couldn’t help but grab onto Jiang Yang’s thigh: “Good brothers always go together. Wwuwuwu, I’m so moved—–”
