Back to the Past: The Rise of the False Heiress Marrying the True Tycoon

Chapter 759: A Huge Failure

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Teacher Zhou,” Gao Ming said, his voice steady and resolute, “it’s true that Gu Jun and his friends were whispering and disrupting the class. It was fair for you to send them to the back to listen. However, Xiao Pang merely turned his head and glanced our way. You not only sent him to the back but also insulted him by calling him ‘fatty’. This is not only an excessive punishment but also verbal abuse. I demand an apology.”

As the students watched Gao Ming rise to his feet, a sense of solidarity filled the room. The trio who had just been sent to the back joined in, “Teacher Zhou, you can’t bully Xiao Pang just because he’s quiet and his family isn’t influential. At most, you should have given him a warning. It’s unfair to make him stand with us.”

The other students looked from Teacher Zhou to the usually kind and quiet Xiao Pang, huddled in the corner, silent. Their indignation grew, and they began to protest, “That’s right, Teacher Zhou, your actions are unfair. You taught us in the first lesson of last term about fairness, justice, sincerity, and trust. Were those words only for the leaders who patrol the classes?”

The classroom discipline quickly descended into chaos.

No matter how much Teacher Zhou banged on the desk or threw chalk, it had no effect. Her gaze towards Gao Ming and Su Li was filled with resentment, wishing she could devour them. Especially Su Li, who was a troublemaker, leading Gao Ming to become the unappointed class leader.

Before, the students would never dare to act out like this!

The children chattered away, discussing Teacher Zhou’s unfairness without fear. After all, their parents had told them that if the sky fell, there would be someone tall to hold it up. Gao Ming and Su Li were those tall figures.

The commotion attracted the attention of the middle-level leaders patrolling the classes. They looked at the chaotic classroom discipline, their brows deeply furrowed. They took out a pen and wrote a large “C” on their patrol record book. This meant that the class was graded as C-level, the worst level. For the formal teaching staff of this school, it was a significant failure.

As everyone watched the middle-level leader survey the room with disappointment, Teacher Zhou finally compromised. She allowed Xiao Pang to return to his seat and began the lesson.

After class, she returned to the office.

On the public notice board at the back of the office, the latest patrol grades were posted. Seeing a large “C” next to her name, Teacher Zhou was so angry she couldn’t stop coughing.

Now, not only was her excellent teacher bonus from last year gone, but she had also received a “C” grade so early in the year. In future classes, the middle-level leaders patrolling the classes would undoubtedly be waiting to catch her second “C”. Essentially, there was no hope for her in this year’s excellent teacher selection.

Damn it!

A teacher, clutching a book, entered the room and was taken aback by the sight of Teacher Zhou, who appeared to be on the verge of fainting. She hurried over, yet hesitated, fearing that Teacher Zhou might be feigning illness. “Ah, Teacher Zhou, what’s wrong? Do you need help?” she asked, her voice laced with concern.

Teacher Zhou was in such discomfort that she couldn’t speak. The thought of needing the money to pay off her husband’s debt, and the fact that she hadn’t received her bonus for two consecutive years, overwhelmed her. In a fit of despair, she collapsed.

The other female teacher, thrown into a state of panic, called for the school doctor and quickly arranged for her to be taken to the hospital.

Meanwhile, in the cafeteria, the students were oblivious to the unfolding drama. Su Bing and Su Li had set aside their cafeteria food and placed a large lunchbox, filled with their mother’s home-cooked meals, in front of them. They guarded it like a treasure, surrounded by a group of salivating classmates led by Gao Ming, all of whom were eyeing the aromatic and appetizing dishes in the lunchbox.

Of course, Gao Ming had no reason to worry about going hungry. Due to the fact that the brothers rode in the Gao family’s car to and from school, Gu Zi, their mother, would always prepare an extra portion for Gao Ming whenever she cooked for her sons. At that moment, the brothers were reluctantly sharing a portion of their delicious lunch with Gao Ming, much to the envy of their classmates, both Su Li’s and Su Bing’s.

The students in Su Bing’s class, who were generally older, had been invited by Su Bing to a food party at his house. Although they were tempted by the food in front of them, they were willing to wait until Saturday to taste Su Bing’s mother’s cooking. It was just a matter of time.

However, the students in Su Li’s class were not as patient. Being younger, they sweetly called out to Su Li, “Second Brother, Second Brother,” in hopes of getting a share.

Su Li, unable to resist their pleas, shared his snacks with his “little brothers,” assuring them, “Here, there’s enough for everyone. You’re my little brothers. With me, you’ll never go hungry!”

Su Li distributed the food with joy, but as he continued to share, he realized that the large lunchbox was empty, save for a can of fruit. The sudden realization almost brought him to tears. Where had all the delicious food his mother had prepared for him gone?
