Chapter 16 - Are You Telling A Joke? (1/2)
”Waaa! How did you make the question so easy to understand and yet, so fun?! This is the first time, in my sixteen years of life, I understood a question so well!” Huo Meng Li took back her question paper while she tried to do the questions again. Jing Bo Chuan also started to take an interest in the questions and attempted them.
”Why are you all making so much noise! Are you done with all the questions already?! If so come up and present your answers!” Mrs. Wen looked at Mo Xi as she said it.
”It is only your first day in school today and you are already making so much noise in class. You were absent from school yesterday and now you are not respecting your teachers?!”
Mo Xi snorted, she knew Mrs. Wen would try to find faults with her the moment she stepped in.
”Mrs. ...” Huo Meng Li wanted to explain to Mrs. Wen but she was blocked by Mo Xi.
”Continue to do,” Mo Xi told Huo Meng Li and turned back to Mrs. Wen, ”Since when did I not respect you?”
”You are not doing your work and you are talking to others in front of me! If that is not disrespecting me, then what is?!”
”Did Mrs. Wen say that we cannot discuss our work?”
Mrs. Wen was caught off guard, she tried to speak again, ”Were you even discussing? You are already twenty-two years old and you are still here in year 1, worst still, class 5. Do you even know how to do the questions? Don't disturb others if you don't know a single thing. If you can't graduate, don't hold back the others!”
What Mrs. Wen said angered Jing Bo Chuan and Huo Meng Li. Mo Xi knew that Mrs. Wen was finding troubles for her on purpose, if she doesn't solve it once and for all, her high school life would be too tiring. Mo Xi looked at Jing Bo Chuan and Huo Meng Li to tell them not to get involved and continue with the questions she prepared.
”Excuse me, but what does me, being twenty-two years old, year 1, class 5 have anything to do with whether I know how to do the questions or not.”
”Of course it does! You are stupid that is why you took so long to reach year 1! Look at your question paper, you didn't even attempt any single of them, isn't that stupid.”
”He, Mrs. Wen, what if I can do all the questions? If I solve everything, I want you to apologize to me in front of the whole class.”
”Are you telling a joke. Impossible!”
”I said it is if I can do all the questions.”
”You really won't shed a tear until you see the coffin. Alright, if you can do all the questions, I will apologize to you in front of the whole class! If you can't, then get out of my class!”
”Everyone heard it right? If so, then I will start.”
Jing Bo Chuan and Huo Meng Li could finally see that Mrs. Wen was targeting Mo Xi, and they both chuckled.
Mrs. Wen was slightly frightened when she saw Mo Xi walked up to the board, but she still believed that Mo Xi doesn't know how to do the questions.
