Illiterate

Cheng Ling first went to the office to look for Chen Min, the class teacher of class 10. Chen Min was a young girl of only 23 or 24 years old. She seemed to have just graduated from college and was teaching English.

Seeing Cheng Ling appear at the office door, she quickly stood up to greet her.

"You are Cheng Ling, right?"

Cheng Ling did not expect to be greeted so warmly. After all...

The teachers who knew her name basically treated her as a thorn in their sides.

"Hello, Teacher Chen. Yes, I'm Cheng Ling."

Chen Min pulled out the stool beside her and let Cheng Ling sit down.

"You don't have to worry about being assigned to class 10 this year. Our class is very united, although our results are a little poor..."

The teacher sitting behind her let out a loud laugh. "Teacher Chen, the results of your class are not a little poor, they are very poor."

Cheng Ling tilted her head slightly and saw the teacher's appearance.

It was the class teacher of class one.

She was also her former class teacher. She was a woman in her fifties. She had been teaching in Yuya First High School for many years and had always been the class teacher of the key class.

Hearing this, Chen Min smiled embarrassedly and ignored her.

However, that person continued to say, "Cheng Ling was my student before. Once she left, my average score in class would increase by at least 10 points! Teacher Chen, you have to be careful."

"Teacher Gu, I'm talking to my student here. If you also want to talk to your student, then call your student over yourself, okay?"

Gu Yan couldn't help but feel embarrassed after being rebuked so directly.

"Chen Min, how can you talk in this manner?! Is this your attitude when talking to me?"

The other teachers all ran over to pull Gu Yan back. They seemed very familiar doing this. It could be seen that this was definitely not the first time Gu Yan had targeted Chen Min.

Cheng Ling smiled at Chen Min obediently, revealing her dimples. "Teacher Chen, don't worry. I believe that you will definitely lead our class to progress!"

Chen Min also smiled, but there was a hint of helplessness in her smile.

It was almost time for the class meeting, so Chen Min brought Cheng Ling to class 10 of the third year of high school.

There were four classes on the third floor. They were from class 7 to class 10. Class 10 was on the other side of the corridor. Cheng Ling followed Chen Min all the way. Along the way, there were students from the neighboring class poking their heads out.

"Is this the fake daughter of the Cheng family?"

"I think so. Isn't her sister Cheng Xiao in class one? Why is she on our floor?"

Hearing these words, Cheng Ling acted as if nothing had happened, and they weren't talking about her.

On the contrary, Chen Min was looking at Cheng Ling worriedly.

When they reached class 10, the bell rang just in time. However, this bell was like warm-up music for class 10. Everyone was talking and arm-wrestling, and they were having even more fun.

Some sharp-eyed boy noticed Chen Min and Cheng Ling and shouted, "Teacher Chen is here!"

The classroom was quiet for two seconds before it became noisy again.

Chen Min walked up to the podium, knocked the table, and shouted 'quiet' twice before the classroom gradually quieted down.

"Before the class meeting begins, I would like to introduce to the students the new member of class 10..."

Everyone looked out of the door at the same time.

"Cheng Ling, come in quickly."

Upon hearing her name, Cheng Ling carried her bag and stepped into class 10.

"Wu... isn't this the last in the grade, Cheng Ling!" A boy sitting in the first row shouted, "Teacher, the average score of our class is already very low. Now that the last in the grade is here, isn't it going to be even lower!"

"Wu Ya, shut up!" Chen Min reprimanded him and let Cheng Ling go up to the podium to introduce herself.

Cheng Ling's school uniform was ironed by Xie Ying until it was very smooth and looked as if it was new. Cheng Ling herself was not short, she was 1.68 meters tall and had a good posture. When she wore this school uniform, she looked like a tall poplar tree.

Her hair was combed into a high ponytail and was thrown behind her head. She looked tidy and neat.

"Hello, everyone, I'm Cheng Ling. I'm very happy to be in class 10. I hope we can get along well in the future."

"Especially with you. This... crow?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment until they followed Cheng Ling's gaze and saw Wu Ya, who had just spoken. Everyone burst into laughter.

"Crow? Hahaha, this nickname is good!"

"That's right, it's been two years. Why didn't we think of that!"

Wu Ya, who had been named by her, immediately blushed and stood up. "Cheng Ling, what are you talking about?"

Cheng Ling had an innocent look on her face. "Ah? I didn't say anything. Aren't you called crow? I'm sorry, I'm ranked last in my grade and can't read very well."
