Chapter 384: Chapter 361: No One Can Brag Like You
It’s like in a university classroom, everyone fights for the last row seats, but no one fights for the front row seats.
The teachers understand this and don’t force it.
In Teacher Ma’s class, he usually didn’t require students to sit in the front row either, but this time, with a celebrity visit, he was genuinely frustrated with the students skipping class en masse.
So he directly assigned seats to Ji Xizhi and Xiao Yuan as an example to others.
He even specifically had the class monitor note their names.
Teacher Ma also respected Ji Xizhi and Xiao Yuan, not making them take off their masks and hats in front of everyone, and simply let them sit down.
The classmates in Teacher Ma’s class saw that Teacher Ma caught them again, and the students in the classroom started buzzing in discussion.
“Impressive! Despite what Old Ma said yesterday, someone still dared to skip class! These two are bold! Which class are they from?”
“Front row, getting sprayed with Old Ma’s saliva, it’s too tragic, just too tragic! Luckily, I didn’t come today and secured a spot in the last row!”
“Old Ma asked me to note down names… hmm… these two don’t seem to be from our class, they must be from Class Two next door?”
“They must be from Class One, they’re so gutsy! Bad luck, bad luck!”
Old Ma’s class is a big lecture, with students from both classes together, and when Old Ma said to note down names, both class monitors instinctively thought they were students from the other class and didn’t pay much attention.
Ji Xizhi and Xiao Yuan practically sat galaxies apart from the other classmates in the class when they sat in the front row.
The rows behind them were empty, and it wasn’t until the third row that some students began to sit.
Xiao Yuan looked at the deadly distance and, full of anxiety, leaned over to ask Ji Xizhi:
“Zhi Zhi, is it appropriate for us to sit here?”
“Nope.” Ji Xizhi just replied, and Xiao Yuan got excited.
She knew it wasn’t appropriate; they came here to work on a film set, so why were they suddenly attending class!
Even though it wasn’t work time yet, it still wasn’t appropriate!
“Right, over at Shanli…”
Before Xiao Yuan could finish her sentence…
Ji Xizhi craned her neck, “Sitting in the front row isn’t good for the cervical spine; the third or fourth row is slightly better.”
Xiao Yuan was speechless: “?”
She started to suspect that Ji Xizhi really did come here just for class!
Just as Ji Xizhi and Xiao Yuan sat down, the projector was turned on, and Teacher Ma was ready to start teaching.
“Today we are going to discuss…”
Teacher Ma just began his lecture when he noticed that Ji Xizhi and Xiao Yuan’s desk was bare in front of them.
Goodness, they even came to class without books?!
“Where are your books?! I know you all love to join the party, but you two not even bringing books is a bit disrespectful to me, isn’t it?”
Teacher Ma slapped his book against the lectern repeatedly, displaying his dissatisfaction.
He wasn’t usually a very strict teacher; he would often joke with students in the classroom and didn’t scare students with the threat of failing, but precisely because of this, the absenteeism rate in his class had recently been high.
However, today, he was genuinely a bit angry.
Teacher Ma stared at Ji Xizhi and Xiao Yuan.
The other students sitting in the back rows also focused their gazes on the two.
“Oh no, Old Ma placed them in the front row, can’t even pass a book to them!”
“It’s like taking a dump on Old Ma’s head, good luck to them!”
The students whispered among themselves, unable to resist chatting softly.
Teacher Ma overheard a few phrases, and his mouth twitched; he almost couldn’t maintain the serious expression. He coughed lightly and managed to hold back his laughter.
“You two, mutual respect works both ways!”
Xiao Yuan was almost suffocating from the feeling of all eyes on her; she wished she could bury her head in the desk.
Ji Xizhi was doing slightly better than Xiao Yuan, but when Teacher Ma asked about their books, she also froze for a moment.
But only for a few seconds.
When she saw the full title of the book Teacher Ma held, she instantly relaxed.
Ji Xizhi said, “No need to bring the book, I’ve read this book before, and I remember it!”
Once Ji Xizhi said this, the whole class was in an uproar.
“Wow, that’s so audacious! If anyone can boast, it’s you!”
“I’m starting to get interested in these two, blatant provocation, hahaha, even Old Ma is stunned!”
“Fight fight, best to have a debate now! I want to take photos and record and post them on the forum, hehe…”
The noise level in the entire class reached its peak at that moment.
“Quiet, everyone quiet down!” Teacher Ma felt a headache coming and looked at Ji Xizhi, laughing:
“You’re so talented, how about you come up and teach this lesson, and I’ll listen. If you do well, you don’t have to come to my classes in the future!” ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
Teacher Ma directly used the favorite tactic of teachers: You teach!
Following the usual process, the student should awkwardly apologize and admit their mistake, then sit back down and listen to the lecture.
But Ji Xizhi wasn’t like everyone else.
After listening to Teacher Ma, she really stood up.
Ji Xizhi courteously said, “If I lecture, it might disrupt your and the students’ learning time!”
Teacher Ma chuckled in exasperation: “Come on, come on, you lecture already! No more talk, get up there!”
The rest of the class jeered, and people from the back row even took out their phones:
“Lecturing time, get up there, don’t be afraid, beat Old Ma! Go, scholar, go!”
With everyone egging her on, Ji Xizhi finally stood up.
Now Teacher Ma and the students were noisily pressing for her to start lecturing, and if Ji Xizhi didn’t get up and teach, the atmosphere wouldn’t calm down.
Ji Xizhi had lectured before; during her previous Ph.D. studies, she also helped other teachers cover classes, so she had the teaching experience.
Xiao Yuan watched wide-eyed as Ji Xizhi, who sat beside her, walked up to the podium.
Question marks above her head were almost becoming tangible.
She realized she was wrong, so very wrong! Ji Xizhi wasn’t here to attend class; she was here to teach it!
In disbelief and skepticism, Xiao Yuan watched as Ji Xizhi leaned over the podium PPT, pointing and asking, “Is this the lesson to cover?”
Teacher Ma initially wanted to intimidate Ji Xizhi, but seeing her actually starting to teach, he became interested.
Teacher Ma earnestly pointed it out to Ji Xizhi, “Just this section, you go ahead and explain it!”
Ji Xizhi: “Okay!”
She was utterly relaxed, exuding a sense of ease, speaking clearly, and thoroughly explaining the content from the book.
The depth of knowledge she mastered was astonishing; she effortlessly expanded from one point to another, offering examples with such insight and occasional engagement with the students.
Her beautiful handwriting on the blackboard was a sight to behold.
The students at first wanted to watch the scene unfold, but as they listened, their attention was completely captured by Ji Xizhi, ditching their phones and focusing solely on her lecture.
She lectured for around half the class, and when Ji Xizhi finished a point and paused, only then did a student from the audience start to sense something was off.
“Don’t you all feel that this handwriting, this voice, this lecturing style… seems a bit familiar?”
