My deskmate is always catching me [Rebirth]

Tan Mengmeng was stunned for two seconds as if she had been struck by lightning, and then she realized that the phone was facing her.

In other words, the two people opposite saw the words upside down.

Ye Cheng's eyes drifted downward, and as soon as he spoke, Tan Mengmeng saw a waiter wearing an apron walking over.

For the first time, she felt that the image of Haidilao’s waiters was as glorious as a savior.

Then regardless of what happened, he suddenly raised his hand and shouted: "Here, here! It's my birthday today!"

At noon, people gathered in Haidilao. The waiters scattered in every corner pricked up their ears and looked at the customer who took the initiative to shout "his birthday".

The waiter who came over to her immediately understood and said with a standard smile: "My beautiful lady, please wait a moment."

Tan Mengmeng took advantage of the distraction of the two people opposite her and quickly pulled out the phone.

Her little heart was pounding, and she tried her best to pretend to be calm and cover up the gaffe she had just made.

The two of them were obviously out of state and didn't have time to see her little move.

"Today is your birthday? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Ye Cheng said in surprise.

‌Why are we not prepared? It seems a bit rude.

Lu Xiao chewed the fish skin and said vaguely: "That's right, sister, you're too outgoing."

"Haha, didn't I just remember? It's the same here." Tan Mengmeng's sweat flowed down her forehead, and she stiffly pulled the corners of her mouth, forcing a smile.

Within a few minutes, a large group of waiters came pushing carts and holding signs.

‌For those who celebrated their birthdays in Haidilao, I understand.

"Little beauty, I wish you a happy birthday and happiness every day -" the manager on duty took the lead in shouting, and put the little crown on Tan Mengmeng's head with a smile.

Then, he turned around and directed everyone: "1, 2, 3, get up!"

All the waiters are well-trained and sing loudly: "Say goodbye to all troubles, say hello to all happiness..."

The singing was deafening and echoed throughout the store.

Everyone in Haidilao looked over and burst into laughter, and many of them took videos with their mobile phones.

Lu Xiao and Ye Cheng lowered their heads tacitly, pretending not to hear or see, hoping that no one would notice them.

Tan Mengmeng is almost crying. Come on, a group of strangers are surrounding you singing, and a group of strangers are watching your reaction like monkeys.

Damn it, this is a real social death scene.

She never wants to come to Haidilao again in her life.

After the five-minute birthday greetings from Haidilao employees, the three fell into an eerie silence again.

Lu Xiao has never celebrated her birthday here. The last time she came here, she was still laughing at another table's birthday party.

In the end, it was Ye Cheng who broke the embarrassment by raising a glass. The only adult at the table picked up the glass and said, "Mengmeng, I wish you a happy birthday and make progress in your studies."

Lu Xiao also followed suit and raised his glass: "Happy birthday, uh, get out of singles as soon as possible."

"Thank you, thank you." Tan Mengmeng clinked glasses with them tremblingly, and downed the sour plum juice with tears in her eyes.

Lu Xiao ate three plates of ice cream and hot pot that day. Halfway through the afternoon shopping with them, Lu Xiao got into the toilet with dignity.

The following weekend was a perfect one. After I got home, I spent most of the day on the toilet.

I didn’t suffer the pain of love, but I suffered the pain of diarrhea.

During class on Monday, Hua Wangchun announced to the class that Xu Chao would be here next week.

Everyone immediately cheered, as if they were finally leaving the evil mother-in-law and entering the arms of their own mother.

Hua Wangchun shook his head helplessly: "You really like me, but don't get too happy too soon. Knowing how to take the exam is the best test for me.

The college entrance examination has always been easier and harder every year. This year is definitely more difficult than last year. I don’t know if your class can get a few straight A’s.”

If you get all A's in the general examination, you can get extra points in the college entrance examination.

If you look at it in the attached middle school, there are basically only two or three in the entire class, not all A's.

And here, it would be nice to have two or three with all A’s.

The people below whispered: "Brother Cheng is willing to do it all."

"Yu Kun also has some hope. It would be nice if I could have two A's."

"I feel like I can usually get around 90% on the test, so it shouldn't be too difficult."

"Only our papers...how can we compare with those who will take the exam?"

Hua Wangchun continued: "This month will enter the sprint period, and there will be three mock exams and review. Also, while everyone is grasping the subjects of the college entrance examination, they must not lose focus.

The progress of the subject. If you have any suggestions for the class, feel free to mention them to me. The other things are not important. First, try your best to cope with the college entrance examination."

"Yes, Master." Everyone replied in unison.

After class, when Hua Wangchun walked to the stairs with his books in his arms, Ye Cheng's voice came from behind him.

"Master, wait a minute." He ran over and stopped Hua Wangchun.

"Is something wrong?" Hua Wangchun turned to look at ‌.

Ye Cheng said: "I want to talk to you about the mock exam."

Hua Wangchun put the book on the railing and motioned for him to continue talking.

Ye Cheng did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "I have done their HKCEE mock papers in the Affiliated Middle School before, and there is quite a big difference between them and our own papers."

The papers in the attached middle school are much more difficult than those in the National College Entrance Examination. Even students in the top classes find it difficult to get high scores on the papers in our school.

This kind of "devil's training" not only ensures an improvement in overall performance, but also keeps students calm in the examination room, because questions more difficult than this are commonplace for them.

He said as tactfully as possible: "I would like to suggest that our school should also adjust the difficulty of the mock papers accordingly. It doesn't need to be too difficult, as long as it is close to the college entrance examination."

If the difficulty of the National College Entrance Examination is compared to three stars, then the mock paper for the attached middle school would be five stars, and the mock paper for No. 13 Middle School... would be one and a half stars at most.

Hua Wangchun nodded and said: "Xiaoye, I am very pleased that you can make such a suggestion. However, this problem cannot be solved by adjusting the difficulty of the paper."

He sighed and said in a very helpless tone: "It's not like you don't know our level. As the difficulty of this paper increases, some children become even less confident. To give a very simple example, in the past few years,

I'm correcting the final math test paper. Do you know how much the top grader in the second grade of high school got on the math test? It was only eighty-five points."

‌Make ‌ two numbers.

"We have discussed the things you mentioned in a meeting. On the one hand, it is a problem with the students. On the other hand, the associate teachers also have a problem. For example, they do not understand the level of all students and cannot easily change the difficulty of the questions to suit the exam.

.Hey, you have been in the attached middle school, so you may not fully understand our difficulties."

Ye Cheng said seriously: "I understand, this can't be entirely blamed on the teacher. The geography teacher of our class has to lead six classes at the same time, and the teachers cannot be allocated at all."

There are a total of ‌geography teachers in the whole grade, and each one is busy working all day long.

There are even fewer chemistry divisions, only three.

Hua Wangchun didn't expect that he would be considerate, so he said with some emotion: "This is the first time I have seen a student who is as sensible and considerate of the school as you are."

"Teacher Hua, you can also take some measures to strengthen the interaction between teachers and students, such as asking students to fill in questionnaires, or systematically analyzing everyone's concentrated mistakes." Ye Cheng said sincerely, "There are no problems in our class.

It’s not that bad, even the No. 13 Middle School is not that bad. Take your time, these problems will be solved bit by bit.”

‌Looking at ‌, ‌ is not that the students have no confidence, but that the leaders themselves have no confidence in this school.

No student had ever said such a thing to Hua Wangchun. He tried his best to suppress his emotions and looked at him.

Ye Cheng added: "Finally, as for the mock papers of the National College Entrance Examination, if you believe me, I can help the teachers to solve the questions together. I understand the question style of the attached middle school very well, and I also know the questions of our class.

Some people have a good understanding of their learning situation and may be able to help teachers.”

Hua Wangchun was greatly shocked.

The questions for students to participate in the simulation paper are unprecedented in the history of Quannan City, not to mention No. 13 Middle School.

After thinking for a moment, he said: "Xiaoye, let's do this. I will call the grade group to hold a meeting about this matter. How about you come and listen together in the afternoon?"

Ye Cheng nodded, "You can decide, I can do it."

Hua Wangchun patted ‌ on the shoulder and said, "I would like to express my gratitude again. Thank you for thinking so much about the school and your classmates."

‌Intuition Ye Cheng is much more mature than his age.

"You're too polite." Ye Cheng said.

It is not a self-contribution, there is no selfishness at all.

Why consider so much?

Because in this school, in this class, among these classmates, there is Lu Xiao.

‌How could you just let it go?

In the afternoon of that day, Hua Wangchun held an impromptu grade group meeting in the conference room.

All the associate division teachers were present at the meeting. Ye Cheng moved a chair and sat next to it.

The history teacher was a middle-aged woman who usually liked her very much. She walked over to take pictures and said, "Xiaoye, are you here to be the recordkeeper?"

Ye Cheng smiled without nodding or shaking his head.

Soon, everyone arrived.

Hua Wangchunqing cleared his throat and said, "Sorry, I called you over temporarily because I have something to ask for your opinion on."

He glanced at Ye Cheng, who was quiet beside him, and said, "Let me introduce you to everyone first. This is my student, Ye Cheng."

Ye Cheng stood up and bowed to the teachers.

The teachers started laughing.

"No introduction, we know each other."

"We are the 'facade' of our Thirteenth Middle School, what else do we need to introduce."

"Xiaoye's midterm exam is really impressive. He scored perfect marks on the objective history questions. Do you dare to believe it?"

"Oh my God, don't tell me. I envy you every day for being able to teach such students."

Hua Wangchun interrupted everyone's discussion and said: "What I want to say is that it has something to do with ‌. Everyone has seen Ye Cheng's grades. Several of the subjects of the National College Entrance Examination in Class 20 are ‌ teachers. Come on."

Let’s talk about it.”

The history teacher was the first to say: "Xiaoye's history test is 97, and only the big questions will be deducted a few points."

The political teacher said: "The score of political science is 95, and I have been very strict with it. However, this child still got all the objective questions right. I can only say that the basics are really solid."

Other teachers reported their scores one after another. Except for the subjective questions, Ye Cheng's scores were all close to full marks.

The deduction of points for subjective questions is not because the answer is flawed, but because the school has a policy to try not to give full points.

The political teacher said repeatedly: "I really want to give full marks to the next few questions, but I can answer every test point correctly. I remember every word in the book, so I can't.

I’ve never seen such an awesome student.”

"It seems that everyone is fully convinced of your abilities." Hua Wangchun said without any expression.

"Of course."

"Xiaoye's ability is quite strong. He should be able to get all A's in the national college entrance examination."

Hua Wangchun said: "My classmate Ye Cheng went to the Affiliated High School before, and you know it too. Do you know how many of the worst parallel classes in the Affiliated High School last year had all A's?"

Someone answered: "I remember this, 80%. This data shocked me at the time."

"In our school, how many of the top classes have straight A's?" Hua Wangchun looked at him sharply.

Everyone looked at each other and began to understand what ‌ meant, and ‌ remained silent‌.

Hua Wangchun continued: "Many of you teachers have done the simulation test of the attached middle school, and you should understand where we are falling short. We usually are lazy and do not pay strict attention to it, but there is nothing wrong with sharpening our guns in the field."

The tone of ‌ gradually entered the state of criticism during a meeting, and the leader was accustomed to the tone of ‌.

"There are still two months left before the National College Entrance Examination. These mock exams are very, very important. You must cheer up and study the past exam questions carefully. Don't do it for me just to fool around with your scores.

‌Some mentally retarded questions.”

‌As he spoke, he slammed a stack of papers on the table.

"Who was the founding emperor of the Qing Dynasty? Can you pass a test like this? Xu Zhenzhu, don't look around. I'm asking you if you can do it?"

Hua Wangchun slapped the table, and the other history teacher trembled in fright.

"It's just a matter of doing nothing but perfunctory work! Even I can't do this kind of nonsense! Look, this is your usual job!" Hua Wangchun said angrily.

The "temporary meeting" has officially evolved into a criticism and struggle meeting.

This familiar routine made Ye Cheng feel numb, but it was still a good entry point.

After talking about us strangely for more than ten minutes, Hua Wangchun finally got to the point.

"Is it possible to analyze students' mistakes-prone points, adjust the difficulty of the simulation papers, and strive to get closer to the college entrance examination?"

As soon as he finished speaking,

Many teachers looked embarrassed: "Director, we have to write the paper in the next few days. It's not that we are lazy, it's that we don't have time."

"That's right. It takes time to analyze the error-prone points. Our question bank has been laid out."

Hua Wangchun sneered and said, "I just say that you can't do it, so I'll find you a helper. Isn't Ye Cheng sitting here?"

Everyone is a little confused and doesn't know what it means.

Hua Wangchun looked at them and said: "Student Ye Cheng understands the simulation paper mechanism of key high schools very well, and also knows the weaknesses of our students. Just now, you also recognized our abilities, and you have

Willing to help the teachers to complete this simulation paper together."

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole conference room exploded.

"What? Let's take the test paper together?"

"You're crazy. How can you give students test papers? Don't you have to take the exam yourself?"

"Xiaoye has no problem doing the questions, but the test paper... is still a bit uninteresting."

Hua Wangchun looked at Ye Cheng, stood up knowingly and said, "Masters, please listen to my opinion."

The conference room gradually became quiet, and everyone looked at it.

As a high school student, it is impossible not to be nervous when dozens of teachers look at you like this.

Even the first public class for these people as teachers made them extremely nervous.

However, he didn't panic at all, and even kept a decent smile on his face.

"First of all, regarding the questions, I have memorized the National College Entrance Examination questions in the past ten years, including the National College Entrance Examination reform. I also dabbled in them before the reform." Ye Cheng said unhurriedly, "And now there is a smart question bank , the search is very convenient.”

"Secondly, what Director Hua means is that I will help the topic group and will not formally participate in specific topics. I can make some suggestions based on the comparison of the styles of the two schools for teachers' reference."

"Finally," Yun Danfeng said softly, "for the sake of fairness, I am willing to give up this mock exam."

The crowd started to commotion again. Hua Wangchun looked at him in astonishment. He didn't expect that he was willing to sacrifice so much.

"Oh my god, give up the exam?"

"That's what I'm saying... Xiaoye, don't be impulsive."

"But no matter what, how can any student participate in the proposition? Hey, although I was almost convinced."

Ye Cheng's expression was calm. In fact, he didn't really care about performance rankings.

Taking one more test or taking one less test doesn't make much difference to me.

Examination is just a special form of practice.

Hua Wangchun said quietly, "Classmate Ye Cheng said this, do you have any objections?"

Someone below was about to say something but stopped, and then added: "Since ancient times, we have never been able to break or establish. We will never let go. Without innovation, we will regress. Politicians, am I right in saying this?"

When the political teacher was called, he just nodded in agreement and thought to himself, what are you talking about?

Hua Wangchun said: "I am a very democratic person. Let's vote. Just raise your hands on the spot. Those who support Ye Cheng's participation, please raise your hands."

‌ He took the lead and raised his hand.

The teacher below secretly murmured that this is not a democratic vote, you just have the word threat written on your face.

However, since Ye Cheng has voluntarily given up the exam, firstly, we have nothing to say, and secondly, we do not want to offend the director.

So, everyone raised their hands and passed.

Hua Wangchun stood up with satisfaction and said: "Okay, let's decide like this."

‌ turned to Ye Cheng: "Look at which time slots are relatively empty, and you can go over and help. Right, ‌, it won't delay your study, right?"

"No, just study by yourself later." Ye Cheng said.

Hua Wangchun said: "‌,‌ you ask the deputy squad leader to help you sit in class."

After ‌ came from the conference room, Hua Wangchun called ‌ to the side alone.

"Can you really accept not taking the exam? Are you not unwilling?" he asked.

Ye Cheng said earnestly: "Yes, don't worry, Master."

"Can your family accept it?" Hua Wangchun was mainly worried about his father.

Ye Cheng said: "I will explain it to you."

There is no need to explain in her heart. Gao Qiulan is very relieved. Ye Gaoyang will not care at all.

Hua Wangchun finally breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Okay, you communicate with your family. I won't let you work in vain. I will give you a bonus when the exam papers are ready."

Ye Cheng wanted to refuse, but in order to reassure her, she agreed.

Starting from the second day, the deputy squad leader will be in charge of the evening self-study every night.

Ye Cheng ran to the teacher's office to help.

These ‌ divisions were quite suspicious of ‌ at first.

Later, every time I asked the first half of a question, I could tell which year and which school the mock test was from.

The teachers found it unbelievable. The people in the problem group didn’t remember it being so familiar.

The history teacher asked curiously: "Xiaoye, are you born with a photographic memory?"

Ye Cheng said modestly: "You will still forget it in a few years. You have to keep deepening it."

History teacher: "...are you in Versailles?"

"No, no," he said. After all, he had graduated from high school many years ago, so it was not easy to pick these things up.

In the evening, Ye Cheng was searching the question bank when his cell phone vibrated twice.

Hua Wangchun was sitting next to him working. He glanced at the missed calls on the screen and said, "This guy is quite clingy."

When Ye Cheng saw Lu Xiao's call, he felt tense in his heart, but then his mind turned to him - he had done the school a big favor, and Hua Wangchun would naturally not inform Ye Gaoyang again.

"Maybe you want to ask me where I'm going." He concealed it.

Hua Wangchun said: "You two grew up in very similar environments. No wonder you are related."

Ye Cheng turned to ‌: "Why do you say that?"

Hua Wangchun put down the computer and said with emotion: "Xiao Lu and my father are not the same as each other. I have been teaching for so many years and the most vicious father and son I have ever seen fight is ours.

."

Ye Cheng took a breath: "Fighting in front of you?"

"Not only that, we just stabbed each other with knives." Hua Wangchun sneered, "My father is a well-known figure, and he has a close relationship with our superiors. I don't quite understand.

The specific situation is that my father asked me to drop out of school, but I refused, so I was beaten to a bloody head."

"Afterwards, my father never came to school again. He probably gave up."

Ye Cheng frowned. If Lu Yaoshan really didn't care, how could he give up so easily?

I don’t know why the conflict between father and son is so deep. Even though I hate Ye Gaoyang, I have never taken action against him.

Hua Wangchun shook his head: "If you don't say this, why don't you give me a call? I care about you very much, so don't worry me."

‌ He actually didn’t pursue the matter of Lu Xiao playing with his mobile phone during evening self-study.

Ye Cheng stood up and said: "‌...‌Master, I'll be back as soon as I go."

"Go ahead, go ahead." Hua Wangchun waved.

Ye Cheng walked to the corner a few meters away from the office and dialed Lu Xiao's cell phone.

After two beeps, the phone picked up quickly.

"Hey, where are you going?" Lu Xiao's voice was a little breathy.

Ye Cheng said: "I'm in the teacher's office, helping me get some information. How can you make a phone call, aren't you in class?"

Lu Xiao said in one breath: "Damn it, I thought you were running at night, so I came to the playground to find you."

Ye Cheng felt a little weird.

‌As Hua Wangchun said, Lu Xiao suddenly became very clingy.

Obviously it wasn't like this some time ago.

I usually stay there when get out of class is over, or sit in the back row and play with my phone.

Now, whenever there is a big class break or lunch break, I will rush to the front row to ask questions.

When ‌ didn’t see ‌ during evening self-study, he called immediately and even ran to the playground to look for ‌.

It's really sticky.

However, Ye Cheng did not express his doubts and said to him: "You go to self-study quickly, I will go to the second period."

"Already walking towards ‌." Lu Xiao said softly, "What are you doing in the office? Hua Wangchun is squeezing you again?"

I always felt that Hua Wangchun would ask Ye Cheng to do some tiring work.

"No, it's just a small matter." Ye Cheng said.

There was a brief silence on both sides, and Lu Xiao said: "I won't disturb you, bye."

"Well, goodbye." Ye Cheng waited for a while.

The person on the other end didn't hang up, and asked in confusion, "Is there anything else?"

Lu Xiao's voice was very low, and when it sounded in the night corridor, it seemed to have a touch of gentleness that was not easily noticeable: "It's okay, you hang up first."

For some reason, Ye Cheng's heart suddenly seemed to be squeezed hard by a hand.

It was like this before...

When they were in love, every time Lu Xiao asked her to hang up the video first, she would always put her off.

One time, I deliberately waited for a long time, and the side of the phone was always lit.

‌I couldn’t help but ask Lu Xiao why he did this.

Lu Xiao replied that if one person had to listen to the hang-up sound, I would rather it be me.

Ye Cheng scoffed at that time, thinking it was childish romance.

Once again, we are just friends, but Lu Xiao still chooses to let him be the first to hang up.

The autumn night wind was a bit cool, carrying the scent of golden osmanthus downstairs, making it a bit cold, but my heart felt hot.

"‌, I'll hang up." ‌ said softly, and then clicked on the ‌‌ red icon.

Ye Chengxin was very happy and thought Lu Xiao performed well.

As a sweetener, I brought a thick stack of printed materials to me when I was in class.

‌Go to the back row and put the information on the table.

Lu Xiao looked at the "638 pages" at the top and was a little stunned: "What is this for?"

Ye Cheng said gently: "Before the mock exam, do these things and ask me if you don't know how."

Lu Xiao said with difficulty: "What does '‌do‌' mean?"

"Just finish writing them all. In fact, these questions are quite simple. They are objective questions to practice your skills." Ye Cheng said, "One question takes two seconds, and I can finish it quickly.

"

"Haha." Lu Xiao laughed twice, unable to believe it, "Are you kidding me?"

Ye Cheng also smiled at me: "I'm not teasing you, I just think you are apologizing and taking the initiative to care about me, and I want to give you some repayment."

Lu Xiao is completely stupid.

Ye Cheng leaned down and said, "Go ahead and write. If you pass this mock test, I will give you a reward."

The strands of hair brushed against Lu Xiao's cheek, which was crispy and itchy, carrying the sweet aroma of bluebells.

Lu Xiao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said in a strange way: "Can I make a request?"
