Chapter 410: Chapter 410: Why Let Her Take the Blame
"Impressive, Chiang Xiao," several teachers gave her a thumbs up.
Chiang Xiao pursed her lips. freeweɓnovel.cøm
If it had been in the examination room, she might not have answered so perfectly. But now, someone was doubting her; was she supposed to cower? Naturally, she had to answer everything in the most perfect way and slap their faces hard!
People fight for a breath of dignity just as a Buddha fights for a stick of incense.
Especially since that person was Yu Chunyu!
She knew all too well that Yu Chunyu disliked her because of Meng Xinian. However, she believed that she had done nothing wrong in that matter.
Indeed, she hadn’t clarified her relationship with Meng Xinian to Yu Chunyu at first.
But at that time, she hadn’t said Meng Xinian was her brother either. Yu Chunyu was just a stranger -- she didn’t have the obligation to clear up the misunderstanding about her relationship with Meng Xinian so plainly.
So what if you approached someone for a blind date and they weren’t interested? How was that her problem?
Hmph, at the end of the day, why should she bear the brunt of the troubles Tyrant Meng brought upon himself? No, she had to write a letter to that person when she got back and give him a piece of her mind!
"The next question is in English. How about I take this one?" Principal Chu directly started speaking to Chiang Xiao in English and asked her a question she did not expect.
"Chiang Xiao, what do you think drives you to study so hard?"
Yu Chunyu bit her lip. She didn’t care about the content of the question but felt that this sentence was quite simple and understandable. Was Principal Chu going easy on Chiang Xiao? Why not use some more complicated and lengthy sentences?
She had not realized that it was only the beginning of the first year of English classes.
Even in the first year, what they started with was just the twenty-six letters of the alphabet, very simple greetings, colors, stationery, words and sentences like that.
Chiang Xiao, who had just graduated from the sixth grade, should not have even understood that sentence, let alone answer it.
The question was actually not simple at all.
If it wasn’t in English, some people might have proudly used a famous saying for their answer.
To study for the rise of China.
But even with such a standard response, could an average student translate it directly into English?
Obviously, Chiang Xiao’s answer was not this one.
She fell silent for a moment before saying, "My purpose in studying might be very pragmatic. I just want to use the power of knowledge to get out of the poor countryside. I want to see a broader world on my own, seek freedom, and live with dignity."
She said these two sentences directly in English.
Very fluently.
It was an authentic British accent.
Principal Chu had studied abroad and had even been criticized for it in the past, but he had persevered. With someone supporting him from behind, he was able to become the principal of a school.
No teacher here had better English than him, which is why none were as shocked as he was.
Chiang Xiao’s spoken English astounded Principal Chu.
In Peace Town, no, in the entire province’s schools, he hadn’t heard a student with such a beautifully authentic pronunciation! Only a few English teachers could speak such pleasing English.
And the other teachers, although some did not understand, recognized from her fluent sentences that her English was definitely up to par!
Yu Chunyu was also stunned.
She only knew a little English, and her speaking was the worst part; she didn’t dare to open her mouth to speak it. How could Chiang Xiao be so capable?
