Chapter 107: Cleaning Duty
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Song Jiaren looked at the problem on the blackboard that was clearly beyond their current learning range and knew who Liu Meifeng was targeting. The students could also guess. They weren’t worried at all and were all watching the drama because they knew that Liu Meifeng definitely wouldn’t call on them.
This was obviously targeted at Song Jiaren.
As expected, Liu Meifeng’s gaze landed on Song Jiaren. She said, “Then let’s invite Song Jiaren to answer it.”
Song Jiaren propped her head with her hand and laid on the table. She didn’t stand up but looked up at Liu Meifeng and said, “If I can’t answer, I’ll take a week’s worth of cleaning duty. If I can, what will you give up?”
Liu Meifeng threw the book in her hand on the podium and said, “I’m your teacher. Isn’t it normal for me to ask you questions? What do I have to give up?”
Song Jiaren smiled and said, “If you didn’t mention that the person who answers incorrectly is responsible for a week’s worth of cleaning duty, that would be the case. But since you placed a bet, you should also bet on something. Isn’t that reasonable?”
Liu Meifeng was rendered speechless by her words. The two of them were in a deadlock for about a minute before Song Jiaren said, “Since you can’t think of any wager, either this wager is invalid or our stakes have to be the same. If I answer it correctly, will you be responsible for a week’s worth of cleaning duty?”
Liu Meifeng looked at the questions on the blackboard and then looked at Song Jiaren. She hadn’t seen Song Jiaren that much this semester, so she was very confident in this bet. She nodded and agreed.
Seeing that she agreed but didn’t move, Song Jiaren continued to sit quietly.
When Liu Meifeng saw this, she mocked and said, “Miss Song, are you afraid? I’ve
already agreed to your bet. Isn’t it time for you to come up and answer the question? Or do you want to admit defeat automatically?” Her face was filled with mockery. Looking at Song Jiaren’s face, she felt that this girl must be the kind of woman who relied on beauty to get her way. She didn’t have any capabilities at all.
Song Jiaren suddenly smiled and stood up lazily. She walked towards the podium and wrote the answer without even showing the process.
Liu Meifeng wanted to mock her, but when she saw the answer, she took out the teaching materials in disbelief and compared Song Jiaren’s answer with the teaching material’s answer. When she saw the same answer, her face instantly turned pale.
“How could you answer this question? Did you peek at the answer?”
Yes! That must be it! Liu Meifeng was certain. Song Jiaren must have peeked at the
answer.
She forgot that this question was something she had thought of at the last minute to make things difficult for others. Song Jiaren didn’t have the time or opportunity to peek at her answer.
Song Jiaren glanced at her and couldn’t be bothered with this retarded teacher. She walked back to her seat and said, “It’s better for you to keep your promise. I’ll have to trouble you this week.”
When Liu Meifeng heard the mirth in her voice, her expression turned even colder. She felt that all the students in the class were looking at her with amusement and contempt. She hurriedly ended the class and returned to the office. There was no way she would accept this bet.
She was a dignified teacher, but she actually had to do cleaning for the students. If news of this got out, how humiliating would that be?
After Liu Meifeng left, the students clapped spontaneously. They looked at Song Jiaren with admiration and felt that she was super cool!
If Liu Meifeng knew that not only did her actions not keep the students away from Song Jiaren, but even made them idolize Song Jiaren, she would probably be exasperated..
