The Goddess is a Little Pitiful, I Invested in Her! - Chapter 62

Chapter 62 – Qi Yun: I Have Good Intentions!

The weekend ended, and a new week began, bringing Qi Yun and his classmates closer to the college entrance examination, which was less than two months away.

On Monday evening, while strolling along the corridor outside the classroom, Qi Yun caught sight of Mr. Xu and Teacher Chen from Class 2 walking together in the direction of their classroom.

Even though they were walking side by side, they didn’t exchange a word.

When Teacher Chen noticed Qi Yun, he smiled slightly and nodded at him before heading towards Class 2.

Qi Yun always felt that Teacher Chen’s gaze towards him was particularly complicated.

“Look at him, so sneaky! Doesn’t seem like a good person!” Mr. Xu commented as they stood outside Class 1’s door.

Qi Yun pondered why he hadn’t noticed it himself. It became clear to him that Mr. Xu was feeling resentful because Teacher Chen had received a new set of exam papers from the Provincial Education Department and hadn’t shown them to him.

Mr. Xu felt naturally indignant.

As they entered the classroom, before Qi Yun could take his seat, Mr. Xu spoke from the podium, “Students in the back row, please close the back door! Those near the windows, stack your books higher to obstruct the view!”

After saying that, he closed the front door as well!

Today, Mr. Xu planned for Qi Yun to deliver the lecture.

They had to be cautious and prevent that guy named Chen from peeking.

Qi Yun responded, “What? Who are you referring to? Why are you acting so secretive?”

After a series of actions, everyone in the classroom looked at Mr. Xu in confusion, uncertain of his intentions.

“To improve everyone’s grades, tonight’s self-study will be replaced with a practice problem session!” Mr. Xu announced from the podium.

“Ah……”

A sigh came from the students.

After all, self-study was still a class, but doing problems themselves was relatively relaxed.

They could even indulge in daydreaming…

Daydreaming for an entire class period was quite enjoyable.

But attending a lecture? It could be so tiring.

On one side, they had to pretend to be attentive, while on the other side, they couldn’t be too focused.

If they seemed too engaged, the teacher might think they knew the answers…

And then they would be called upon to respond.

So, one had to keep their eyes on the teacher, but not with a constant stare.

Once the teacher finished speaking, a sudden realization expression had to be displayed, but not accompanied by continuous nodding.

It was difficult to strike the right balance, and it tested your acting skills!

“Ahem, the one giving the lecture today is Qi Yun!” Mr. Xu declared.

“Ah!” The sound of sighing turned into cheering.

As long as Qi Yun was giving the lecture, that was fine.

After all, he wouldn’t call our names!

Mr. Xu: “???

“So you sigh when I’m teaching and cheer when Qi Yun is teaching?”

Was it that straightforward?

He wanted to say a few words, but inexplicably, he felt that the students below were looking at him with some expectation.

They were hoping he would hurry up and step down…

Old Xu felt a sense of desolation. Three years of teaching couldn’t compare to a single class taught by Qi Yun.

Mr. Xu walked off in sadness, and Qi Yun stepped onto the podium.

“Ahem, thank you all for your support. We will always remember the teachings of Teacher Xu.” Qi Yun said sincerely.

Mr. Xu: “???”

Am I dead or something?

“I am very honored and nervous to be able to give a lecture here. So if anyone has any opinions or suggestions, please speak up. I will take them seriously and make improvements.” Qi Yun said earnestly.

A  student raised his hand in the audience, “Teacher Qi, your lecture is great, better than Xu…”

Suddenly, this student felt a wave of killing intent and instantly saw Mr. Xu’s gloomy gaze.

Gulp

He swallowed nervously and quickly added, “But there is one issue, can you stop showing affection?”

Other students nodded in agreement.

Qi Yun smiled apologetically after hearing that. “I’m really sorry. I didn’t notice that before. I will correct it in the future!”

Seeing Qi Yun’s sincere attitude, the students in Class 1 felt quite relieved.

“I show affection to motivate all of you!”

“Huh?”

“Think about it, why can I show affection? Isn’t it because I have such a great girlfriend like Lian Qingxue?”

Why?

The students below pricked up their ears, especially the boys. They were deeply touched!

“Why do I have such a good girlfriend? It’s not because I’m handsome!”

“Well, of course, I am indeed handsome!”

“Huh!” Some students in Class 1 couldn’t help exclaiming.

“But mainly because my grades are good now! Think about it, when my grades were bad before, did I have a girlfriend?”

It seems like he didn’t. The students of Class 1 were highly convinced.

Do good grades lead to having a girlfriend?

“Think about it, as long as you study diligently and get into a good university. You can meet smart and beautiful junior and senior sisters.”

The students started daydreaming.

“Not only that, but a good university can also help you find a good job! So, as long as you study hard, you may gain wealth and love… no, I mean, a successful career and love!”

The students in Class 1, especially the boys, showed expressions of yearning.

So, Qi Yun’s display of affection was actually with such good intentions?

Suddenly, they all felt that they had misunderstood Qi Yun.

“Of course,” Qi Yun added leisurely, “Even if you study hard, you still won’t be able to find a girlfriend as good as Lian Qingxue. After all, she’s one of a kind!”

“…Tsk! You’re just showing affection!”
