13 Transfer Studen (2/2)

Thinking this, he still tried it anyway.

System responded to his thoughts. ”Voice is not an explicit change, therefore changes will take effect immediately.”

'Oh, sweet!'

As soon as he learned of that, he cleared his throat.

”Ahem... the teacher's saying something...” Zhou Lei heard his own voice, and he could not believe it. This... this was his voice? Impossible...

The whole class heard the man's voice and listened earnestly. Upon doing so, everyone fell in love all over again. Of course, the teacher was also added to that group.

Hearing the mysterious student's words, the teacher couldn't help but feel touched that he was concerned about her. As everyone's attention was directed to the teacher now, she repeated her instructions.

”Class, be seated~”

Her voice was evidently full of joy.

The class disregarded their teacher again, not sitting at all. Instead, they just stood still, staring at the mysterious man.

Zhou Lei noticed that even the teacher didn't care, so he had to say it himself.

”Didn't you hear? Be seated, she said.”

Everyone in the class followed his orders like they were hypnotized.

The teacher snapped out of her daze and announced. ”There is a transfer student coming this day.”

All the students responded, ”Isn't he already here?”, then turned their gaze towards the handsome man.

”I don't know who that is... he's not the transfer student.” The teacher answered the student's doubts.

”Huh?” Everyone in the class was visibly confused, except for the handsome man.

'The handsome man's not the transfer student? Who is he then? Although, to be honest, I'm fine with him staying there... forever...'

After hearing this surprising fact from their teacher, the students all developed their own theories in their minds about the identity of this mysterious man.

Is he an idol? Is he an actor, in a pranking TV show? That's certainly plausible...

The teacher turned towards the door and gestured with her hands to come in. The one she gestured to understood that and walked inside the classroom.

There was an obviously shy girl wearing glasses with braided hair. On top of that, she was holding her bag in front of her.

This... a nerd?!

No one expected the transfer student to be a nerd. After all, modern media had skewed all of their expectations about transfer students.

They all thought that every transfer student would be ridiculously handsome or beautiful, like the mysterious man that was suspected to be a transfer student at first glance.

Yes, some might be attracted to this girl, but the majority of the class clicked their tongues in disappointment.

.....

A while later.

Everyone was trying to converse with the handsome guy, even the supposedly shy transfer student.

”I just came here to say, someone's seated on that chair. But he's been absent for two days, and we don't really care about him anyway as well, so you can go ahead and continue sitting there.” One of Plumpy's bullies talked to the man himself.

Zhou Lei thought of an idea. 'Is this it? The holy face smacking moment?'

”Really? Who is it that is seated here?” Zhou Lei's asked with interest, albeit fake.

”Oh, Zhou Lei's seated there. But he's useless anyway.”

”He's going to drop out soon...”

”That ugly fatass? No one cares about him...”

'Ouch.' Deep inside, Zhou Lei had taken critical damage from his classmates comments about him. He knew that the whole class despised his presence, but he didn't know it was to this extent! Furthermore, it was said directly to his face! On the surface, however, he didn't show it.

The teacher had started to check the attendance. Eventually, she reached Zhou Lei.

”Is Zhou Lei still absent?”

”Yes...” The class almost said this with a synchronized voice. Give them two more days and they should be able to perfect their response.

However, amidst all the yeses, there was one voice that stood out.

”Present.”
