Chapter 115 - The Preliminaries
Chapter 115: The Preliminaries
The students in the class also felt a little strange. Cheng Ling was still around a minute ago.
Everyone looked at Ding Yu in unison. Ding Yu was Cheng Ling’s deskmate. He must know where Cheng Ling was, right?
However, he shrugged, indicating that he didn’t know.
He really didn’t know. One second, Cheng Ling was sitting next to him, reading a book that he couldn’t understand. The next second, Cheng Ling had slipped out of the back door and disappeared.
Chen Fang didn’t pursue it further.
“Cheng Ling couldn’t have gone to participate in the physics preliminaries, right? The competition starts at 2:00 pm.”
A student in the class suddenly had this idea.
The other students immediately echoed, “That’s impossible. For such a physics competition, students from our class are just going there to die. There’s no need for that.”
“Maybe Cheng Ling just doesn’t want to attend class.”
“How is that possible? The registration cut-off for the physics preliminaries was at 11:00 this morning. I didn’t even see Cheng Ling in the registration list this morning.”
The students in the class began to chatter.
Chen Fang patted the podium with the book in her hand, and the students immediately quieted down.
“Oh right, students, let me tell you something. Regarding your former class teacher, Chen Min, the school has already hired her back to take up her position. However, due to Chen Min’s health condition, she may not be able to return to teach until the second half of the year.”
“Health condition? What kind of health condition? Wasn’t Teacher Chen Min still fine the last time we met?”
“I don’t know the details. If you are so concerned about Teacher Chen Min, go and ask her yourself. Let’s not talk about it anymore and start the class.”
Cheng Ling was running towards the small auditorium as the students had guessed.
The small auditorium of the school was not in the same direction as the teaching building. Even if she ran there, it would take about 10 minutes.
Since the class had started, there were no other students on the way. Only a few teachers were walking on the road.
As Cheng Ling always exercised and ate the vegetables she grew, she was in good health. When she stopped after running for 10 minutes and arrived at the small auditorium, she was only slightly out of breath.
The door of the small auditorium was closed. She could even imagine the scene of the students doing physics questions.
She was about to knock on the door, but her hand stopped.
She had thought for a long time if she should come over.
She had heard the conversation between Xie Ying and Qi Min yesterday, as well as what Mi Duo had said to her. All these made her think for a long time.
She had always thought that she could do things as she pleased and be herself. But she did not expect that while she could abandon her friends and not communicate with the outside world, Xie Ying could not.
Yesterday’s incident was something she had just learned. She was not aware that Xie Ying had to resist many people’s ridicule and criticism of her.
Cheng Ling tossed and turned yesterday, unable to fall asleep. She thought in her heart that she could no longer blindly follow her wishes and live.
Just as Mi Duo had said, she had to become Xie Ying’s pride.
When one should not be modest, one should not be.
At this time, the auditorium door opened, and a teacher that Cheng Ling didn’t know came out.
“Why are you standing at the door? You can’t go in during the exam. Stay away from here.”
“I’m here to see Teacher Sun Qi.”
The teacher looked at Cheng Ling suspiciously.
“Why are you looking for Sun Qi? He is invigilating the exam now.”
“Please tell Sun Qi that Cheng Ling from class 10, senior high third year is waiting for him here.”
Although Cheng Ling’s tone and words were gentle, the persistence in her eyes could not be ignored.
The teacher answered impatiently but still went inside to help Cheng Ling convey the message.
Soon, Cheng Ling heard footsteps.
Sun Qi appeared in front of her with an unkempt appearance.
Seeing Cheng Ling, Sun Qi was very surprised.
“Why are you here?”
“Teacher, I also want to participate in this preliminary. I know that the registration deadline is 11 o’clock today, but…”
Sun Qi understood Cheng Ling’s hesitation.
He didn’t expect Sun Qi to directly open the door of the small auditorium.
“Go in.”
Cheng Ling was stunned for a moment, then she walked into the small auditorium.
All the students who were focused on the physics questions raised their heads to look at the door. When they saw the person, they were a little stunned. What was Cheng Ling doing here?
Cheng Ling ignored everyone’s gaze and sat on an empty seat.
Unlike other students who had brought pencils, erasers, watches, and cups, Cheng Ling only brought a pen with her.
Sun Qi handed her a paper.
