Chapter 304 -245 Is He Capable?_2
Mr. Gao Heshuai staggered out of the classroom,
leaving behind a crowd of puzzled classmates.
Yu Wen said to Shen Qing’e, “If the language teacher finds out that his test paper was discussed by Mr. Gao, do you think he might actually get into a fight with Gao Heshuai?”
After some thought, Shen Qing’e replied, “Surely not?”
Yu Wen said, “The language teacher was almost mad because of the voting thing; he might really fight!”
She had never seen teachers fight before.
Nearby, Dong Qingfeng stated with certainty, “Absolutely not.”
“Gao Heshuai looks like a black bear; the language teacher is a scholar and definitely wouldn’t fight.”
Yu Wen: “A scholar…”
…
Friday.
There was only the final English exam left, and after that, they would start the three-day Qingming holiday.
The students were particularly nervous yet excited today.
Like Yu Wen and her friends, they didn’t even take a nap at noon.
Yu Wen gathered her little group, Jiang Yanan and Shen Qing’e, three people in all.
After the last last time, during the class monitor’s birthday, when Yu Wen tragically had a finger shoved up her nose, and then last time, when she snorted pearls from bubble tea, twice humiliated, Yu Wen’s thick skin had evolved.
In front of the class monitor, she no longer cared about losing face.
She often consoled herself that only truly old couples could face each other so frankly. Weren’t she and the class monitor, Huang Zhongfei, just like that now?
Yu Wen, carrying a badminton bag, entered the classroom. Huang Zhongfei sat at his desk, laying his iPhone 5S flat and wiping the screen with an alcohol wipe.
“Class Monitor, what are you busy with?” Yu Wen gazed at the class monitor dressed in a white hoodie and sports outfit, thinking he looked so handsome that she suddenly felt like she could breathe more freely.
Huang Zhongfei turned his head and smiled, saying, “I’m applying a screen protector.”
“Class Monitor, you even know how to apply screen protectors,” Yu Wen awkwardly praised.
Next to her, Cui Yu, who was searching for BT torrents, said, “Applying a screen protector is nothing; Ma Shicheng knows how to do it too. My phone’s screen protector was applied by Brother Ma.”
After speaking, Cui Yu wanted to show off his screen but stopped midway, remembering with a start that he was searching for torrents!
If exposed, how would Jiang Yanan look at him?
Yu Wen was disgruntled, “Can Ma Shicheng even compare to the Class Monitor? The Class Monitor just applies them casually, while Ma Shicheng is totally loafing.”
Huang Zhongfei offered a fair comment, “Ma Shicheng is really good at applying them, if it weren’t for not wanting to bother him, I had planned to ask him to do it.”
Yu Wen countered, “See, I told you, Ma Shicheng is just a tool for screen application.” freёweɓnovel.com
Huang Zhongfei really wanted to argue against this point, but seeing Yu Wen’s resolute attitude, he feared speaking up would hurt her self-esteem.
While Yu Wen waited for Huang Zhongfei to apply the screen protector, she asked once he was finished:
“Class Monitor, do you have anything to do later?”
Huang Zhongfei pressed the bubbles out from underneath the applied protector, “Nothing.”
Yu Wen said, “We plan to play badminton, come with us.” She had waited minutes just for this moment.
Cui Yu, who couldn’t take his eyes off Jiang Yanan, really wanted to join but couldn’t find an excuse, plus he needed to download the torrents.
Tonight, he had agreed to watch movies at Meng Gui’s house with Guo Kunnan and Hu Jun.
Hu Jun had promised to cover the cost of snacks for the evening if they could find some more mature films.
Cui Yu, feeling the weight of this responsibility, was actively searching for movies.
…
When Yu Wen played badminton with the class monitor, she put on an affected air, occasionally letting out delicate cries.
Huang Zhongfei, on the other hand, played quite seriously. His athletic ability was mediocre, but he was a boy after all, and in the face of a technically average and distracted Yu Wen, he could still gain the upper hand.
Yu Wen wasn’t at her best, especially when facing balls aimed at difficult angles; she wouldn’t even try to reach for them, acting more like a delicate young lade from a historical drama.
Yu Wen exaggerated her moves with the racket, this time hitting the birdie especially high and off to the side.
The shuttlecock turned into a white shadow, soared into the sky, and suddenly flew onto a tree.
With a swipe, Yu Wen realized the birdie had disappeared:
“Where’s my birdie, where’s my birdie?”
Yu Wen was particularly perplexed.
Huang Zhongfei pointed up at the tree.
Yu Wen looked up and saw lush branches and leaves with a white shuttlecock hanging among them.
This was a cypress, with a particularly robust trunk – many of them were planted around the Four Middle School campus.
“What to do now?” Yu Wen was at a loss for words, as the birdie was newly replaced and still very fresh.
Leaving it hanging in the tree made her uncomfortable, and not to mention that Yu Wen had a bit of OCD.
Huang Zhongfei looked up and estimated the height of the shuttlecock, about three to four meters up.
He got closer, gesturing with the racket, but it was still far out of reach.
Yu Wen asked Shen Qing’e, “Do you have any ideas?”
Shen Qing’e suggested, “Try throwing a stone at it.”
Jiang Yanan proposed, “We could shake the tree and get it down that way.”
“Okay, Yanan, let’s skip your idea,” Yu Wen said, immediately dismissing the thought as she eyed the stout trunk.
It was impossible to shake.
Yu Wen looked for stones nearby but unfortunately, it was a cemented area with a grassy verge around the tree – not a stone in sight.
Thinking about this, she suddenly looked down at the badminton racket in her hand.
“Could I use the racket to knock it down?” she proposed the idea.
Shen Qing’e replied, “The badminton racket is quite large; there’s a good chance it could work.”
Hearing this, Yu Wen’s confidence grew a tad.
She told the class monitor, who was trying to think of a solution:
“Class Monitor, you just watch; I’ll take care of knocking it down.”
Yu Wen gripped the badminton racket, raised it high, and aimed for the shuttlecock stuck in the branches.
To get a better swing, she even jumped, and with a “whoosh,” the racket flew up, accurately hitting the shuttlecock.
The birdie immediately fell down.
Jiang Yanan exclaimed excitedly, “Wenwen, you’re so accurate!”
Yu Wen looked triumphant, feeling her performance was perfect and that she had just redeemed her image.
