She returned to school.
When Li Fei saw Xuan Mo entering once again with a laptop, she didn't make any comment save for a sigh: "Assembly's in half an hour, read through your textbooks in the meantime, you have a Language paper after assembly."
"Ah!" A wave of howls sounded, "you didn't tell us this last friday!"
"It's a surprise test!" Lin Fei glared at them, "I'm nice enough to let you guys know beforehand."
"…too sneaky!"
"Alright! The other classes have about the same amount of time to prepare as you guys; it's up to you how you want to utilise your time!" After finishing, Lin Fei left the classroom.
Xuan Mo produced her language textbook and gave it a few looks. The only thing she knew how to do was to memorise it; she didn't know how to do anything else, nor did she know what they were gonna test on. If it's comprehension or a short essay then she's as good as dead.
As expected, the test consisted of a modern chinese comprehension, a classical chinese comprehension and a 400-word essay.
Xuan Mo sighed is dismay, bothering to at least gave the paper a few looks before declaring her defeat— she threw her pen aside and stoned.
Lin Fei wanted to explode once again. She stared at Xuan Mo, someone not very prone to visually expressing her feelings on her face, and watched as her face changed with the receiving of the paper–her expression changed from that of curiosity to biting her lips to throwing her pen down without even writing her name.
Lin Fei didn't understand; she'd seen many female students who struggle with English, but she's never encountered any who'd find language to their dislike as much as she did. She heard that Xuan Mo did fine in this subject in junior high, so what kind of difficulty was it that she'd encountered to completely change her into what she was today?
Upon feeling Lin Fei's discontented gaze, Xuan Mo turned and shrugged her shoulders.
Unable to bear it any further, Lin Fei turned away.
After a while, Lin Fei was suddenly recalled to the office. At that, the students started discussing their answers. For some reason, the better students in their class were seated at the back, so many of the students turned behind to check their answers.
"Which bastard wrote this, I don’t get it one bit!" ♢ MY CLASSMATE IS TWO HUNDRED MILLION YEARS OLD, CHAPTER 34 is hosted at ZHAN LAN TRANSLATIONS♢
"I think that piece was definitely on ancient writing! But at least I could decipher what the words were back then, but when the words connected itself into a text, I don't understand it anymore! I can't even figure out what the different parts that make up into a word is!"
Among the waves of complaint, everyone was checking their answers. Following that were things like "I didn't know how to do that" and "I got a different answer" and "so that's how it is".
The academics rep Han Tao even produced the attendance records as an excuse to he walk over to Yi Hai Lan's side, saying: "BBCAC, CADD." There were five and four blanks to the modern Chinese and classical Chinese comprehension respectively.
Yi Hai Lan looked at his answer glumly: "Half of mine are different."
"How can that be?" Han Tao forgot his excuse for a moment and bent forward to discuss with him, evidently forgetting the fact that this test was supposed to be an invigilated one. Han Tao was a tall guy, and it was very eye catching for a person to stand among the rest of the seated students.
Xuan Mo was confident that she could not solve the questions, and couldn't be bothered to copy the Blue Planet beings' answers too, so she looked out the window, listening in on the debate between the two guys behind her occasionally. While she found it interesting, her brows suddenly raised. She fisted her hand and stretched it backward, hitting Yi Hai Lan's table.
The two guys behind her paused, turning to look at Xuan Mo.
Xuan Mo turned behind and looked at them expressionlessly, especially at Han Tao, before pointing at his seat on the other side.
Though he'd always appeared rather mature, he was still a boy. Han Tao thought that they'd disturbed Xuan Mo so he was a little apologetic. He picked up his script, saying: "Sorry about that." After which, he returned to his seat and continued thinking hard as he stared at his paper.
Yi Hai Lan thought of the same think and felt apologetic. Just as he wanted to say something after smiling, Xuan Mo had already given him his regular view of her classic backdrop–her back.
Helpless, he could only return to his paper amidst the discussions.
Not long after he lowered his head back down, the classroom door was suddenly banged open, and in walked the Department Head Yang from the student affairs department and Lin Fei.
His face was cold as he bellowed: "All those that cheats and discussed, come out! Submit your scripts!" Behind the department head stood the anxious Lin Fei.
No one moved. Many of them had their heads lowered as they focused on their papers. Only about four to five of the students who didn't turn back around in turn submitted their papers with reddened faces before leaving.
"Who else, do you want me to point you guys out? I've been watching from outside the classroom for a long time!"
No one moved.
Xuan Mo could felt Han Tao's unease. She saw his frown as he stared hard at the paper; he was evidently tensed.
This dumbass won't actually admit it would it, Xuan Mo raised a brow as she shot Han Tao a meaningful look.
Upon feeling Xuan Mo's gaze, Han Tao looked over. When he saw Xuan Mo's faint shake of head before she turned back, he suddenly relaxed, and sat still, no longer tense.
