Chapter 66

"Monitor, bring the documents to the office later."

"Okay."

Wei Wei organized the thick stack of documents in his hands, gauged the weight, and left the classroom.

He managed to catch up with the 50th anniversary celebration of the school...

When he was a student, his favorite activities were sports days and field trips because they meant no classes.

But now, he gets a headache just hearing about them.

Especially being the class teacher, it exhausts him every time.

...

"Why perform a play? It's boring~"

"Yeah, I agree."

A boy leaned back in his seat, lifting his legs high.

"Why not have a maid café or a bunny girl tea house?"

"That's what I'm saying!"

"And voting for the decision is just not fair, right?"

The boys complained.

The number of girls in the class is higher than that of boys, and they are more united. In order to prevent the boys' twisted ideas from succeeding, they decided to perform a play.

"Oh~ By the way, isn't there a girl right in front of us who would be perfect for a maid outfit?"

"Haha, yeah, I think so~"

"Come on, call her master and let's listen?"

"..."

The girl sitting in front of him trembled slightly but didn't dare to turn around.

"Roxie Lin!"

One of the boys raised his voice and shouted.

"Call her! You're dead!"

A girl walked over and kicked the boy's desk.

"Bell Tong..."

"Ahem, ahem..."

The boys instantly fell silent, turned their heads, and pretended to be busy.

...

"Bell, thank you."

Lin Ruo smiled bitterly and whispered her thanks.

"Ruo Xi, speak up louder, or those idiots will think you're afraid of them!"

"But I am..."

She laughed helplessly.

"You're really pathetic~"

Bell Tong scratched her head, looked around, and only then noticed the girl sitting by the window.

"You see that?"

Roxie Lin followed her gaze.

"Xiao Yu?"

"Ah, do you know why no boys flirt with her?"

"..."

She shook her head.

"Oh, you're so clueless!"

She said, then poked Roxie Lin's head.

"Think about it, Roxie Lin. Even if you approach him, he will still be all smiles, right?"

"..."

She paused for a moment, unable to argue.

"Boys like to flirt with someone like you!"

"What are you talking about..."

"Take a look at Xiao Yu over there."

Bell Tong sneered and deliberately raised her voice:

"Ice queen, so CoooooL~... do you get it? COOL?"

"Haha..."

Roxie Lin looked at her, somewhat understanding but not completely.

"..."

Raina Nan heard the conversation, turned her head, and glanced at her.

"See, she's glaring at me. Ahh~ she's not cute at all, this type of girl~"

Bell Tong sighed and shook her head.

"..."

Raina Nan seemed to ignore her mockery, rested her chin on her hand, and looked out the window.

"So, that's why she could get the role of Liang Shanbo. After all, she's cool~ Haha."

"Hmph!"

Only then did Raina Nan turn her head. She picked up an eraser from her desk and threw it at Bell Tong.

"Duck!"

"Ya!"

Bell Tong performed a beautiful dodge, avoiding her attack, but it hit Roxie Lin's forehead.

"Um..."

Raina Nan clasped her hands together and looked apologetic towards Roxie Lin.

"Haha, Liang Shanbo is so fierce!"

"Bell, maybe you should stop now. Otherwise, Xiao Yu will really get mad at you..."

Roxie Lin muttered, holding her forehead.

In fact, the mastermind behind all this was Bell Tong herself. During the class meeting, she suggested that Raina Nan should play the role of Liang Shanbo, and the vote passed unanimously..."What's wrong with it~" Bell Tong walked up to Raina Nan and sat on her desk.

"Why aren't you playing..."

She was speechless... singing opera, wearing men's clothing, and doing it in front of the entire school.

"Hehe, I'm participating in the relay race!"

"..."

The relay race is a reserved event for the school celebration. The winning class will be included in the yearbook and kept in the archives.

"That's great, you two."

Roxie Lin looked at the two of them with envy.

"Why? Do you regret not playing as Zhuying Tai?"

Bell Tong smirked at her.

"N-no..."

In fact, according to the voting results at the time, Roxie Lin should have played Zhuying Tai, but she refused to do it no matter what, and finally reluctantly took up the backstage work for the play.

"By the way, my dad and stepmom are coming to see me the day after tomorrow."

Bell Tong said, scratching her cheek.

"Really..."

Raina Nan looked at her. The relationship between Bell Tong and her stepmom has always been tense, to be honest, she was quite worried. But now it seems like all her worries were unnecessary.

"Is anyone from the Ruoxi family coming to see you?"

"No, I'm not performing on stage."

"What about Yuyu?"

"Me? I don't know..."

She whispered softly, tapping her fingers on the desk.

"What about Feng Ge? Is he not coming?"

"I don't know..."

He knew about the play, but whether he would come or not, she didn't know.

"That dog, he will definitely come!"

"You know that too..."

"If he dares not to come..."

Bell Tong said, smiling slightly, reaching out and teasing Raina Nan's hair.

"When you go back, make him kneel on the keyboard! Divorce him!"

"Nonsense, what are you talking about! It's best if he doesn't come..."

She muttered softly. Even if he did come, he would just laugh at her, that idiot...

...

"Raina Nan?"

A girl walked over.

"This is the script for the play, take a look first."

"Oh..."

She was handed a stack of printed papers.

After taking a glance, she froze for a moment. So many lines to memorize? Will two days be enough time?

"Stay after school today to rehearse, alright?"

"Okay."

She nodded.

"Xiaoyu, I'll accompany you."

"Okay, sure."

Although Roxie Lin didn't have much to do, she seemed to want to participate in the preparations for the school celebration.

"What about Xiaoling? Aren't you practicing for the relay race?"

"Practice?"

She thought for a moment.

"What's there to practice in just two days? Besides, our class doesn't have any students with athletic talents, how can we win?"

"..."

Giving up before even starting? And even coming up with excuses?

...

She rested her chin in her hand.

Hopefully nothing goes wrong the day after tomorrow...

...

"Teacher Yun~"

"Ah."

Jocelyn York looked up.

"What is it, William Wei..."

She said, burying her head back into her phone.

"Sorry about earlier~"

William Wei said, handing her a can of coffee.

"Are you done with your work?"

"Where can I finish my work? There's still a bunch of things to handle~"

"Then why are you wandering around in the office?"

She said, tapping open the coffee can.

"Taking a break amidst the busyness."

"Is that so..."

"Luojia."

"Hmm?"

"How was last week's Qixi Festival?"

William Wei looked at her and asked.

She paused for a moment, took a sip of coffee.

"What?"

"Did you give out the gifts?"

"Yeah."

She didn't look at him and nodded.

"What about the follow-up plot?"

"What follow-up plot...""Hehe, what are you pretending for? What do you say~" William Wei wiggled his eyebrows and smirked as he nudged her with his elbow.

"Stupid William Wei, what are you thinking!" Her face turned slightly red.

"Nothing?"

"Nothing!"

"Tsk, how boring~"

"Mind your own business..."

She gazed with a hazy look, weakly speaking.

Leaning her head to the side, she pressed it against the desk.

"What's wrong~ emitting a loser's vibe~"

A loser...it's a perfectly fitting description.

But she hated being like this...

"You're the loser!"

She lifted her head and glared at him.

He froze for a moment, then finally spoke again after a while:

"Yeah..."

His voice seemed to come from his throat.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing~"

He smiled and stretched his lazily.

"Oh, it's already this late?"

Glancing at the time.

"I need to go see how their rehearsal is going."

"Oh, take care."

"Yeah, see you~"

He said and left the office.
