Chapter 129 Special Training

Friday. The physics quiz had just been graded, and the papers were handed out before noon.

Seeing the score, Chen Yuan experienced what it meant to hit a bottleneck.

93 points, only one point more than the last joint exam.

And the joint exam was almost two weeks ago.

It could only be said that normal progress was just like this.

Or rather, this couldn’t even be called progress, just ‘fluctuation’.

After the scores were released, He Sijiao and Zhou Yu came over in sync, each wearing a relieved expression, even though their scores weren’t as high as his.

After all, Chen Yuan’s progress wasn’t as terrifying this time, not like the qualitative leap he had achieved before.

Zhou Yu even nodded in approval.

The wound of betrayal healed slightly.

That idiot probably still thought my previous progress was a bluff; this was the norm.

“My physics isn’t great either.” Zhou Fu sighed, seeing her score of 88.

Although this score wasn’t bad, and could even be considered good in this class, her total score was in the top five after all.

At this moment, Tang Siwen walked up to Chen Yuan. Without waiting for him to speak, she picked up his paper and studied it on her own, saying, “Although the score hasn’t changed much, you’ve made fewer mistakes on the topics Mr. Xiao taught this week.”

After Tang Siwen said this, Chen Yuan also realized this.

Xiao Yang’s teaching level was indeed good, completely different from the previous teacher.

“What about you?” Chen Yuan asked Tang Siwen.

“105, an improvement of 4 points.” Tang Siwen held up four fingers.

“Almost full marks, so strong!” Zhou Fu exclaimed.

“Then, do you want to know my secret to becoming stronger?”

Tang Siwen looked at the two of them, speaking quite seriously.

This chuunibyou (delusions of grandeur) question left the two of them somewhat bewildered.

Because if someone else said it, it would be a joke, but Tang Siwen’s tone made them feel that she was expressing it intentionally.

“How did you become stronger?”

It was this kind of mysterious thing that hooked Chen Yuan, who was eager to improve himself, and he asked seriously.

“You guys correct your own mistakes first, correct all that you can.” Tang Siwen looked at the two, mainly Chen Yuan, and said, “Then, eat lunch quickly.”

With that, she left.

Chen Yuan and Zhou Fu looked at each other.

“Although I don’t know what her secret to becoming stronger is, I don’t really want to know… I feel like I’d have to sacrifice something.”

Although Zhou Fu also wanted better grades, to be closer to the score of Lu Men University.

But she was the type who had decent talent and was also fairly hardworking, and that was it.

That day at Tang Siwen’s house, that was her most comfortable mode.

In other words, because her grades were good and quite stable, she didn’t have the motivation to break through her weaknesses.

“Becoming stronger definitely requires sacrifice.” Chen Yuan looked at Zhou Fu and said, “You have to join me.”

“Ah?” Zhou Fu was a little unwilling.

“Fu Zi, aren’t we best friends?” Chen Yuan asked rhetorically.

“Is that how you use moral kidnapping?”

Although Zhou Fu complained, she patted Chen Yuan on the shoulder with a smile: “Alright, who told me that I love you, Mom.”

“Tsk, can you not call yourself Mom?”

“No way, otherwise this sentence would be ambiguous.”

“That’s true.”

“Hey, my good son, don’t you think so?”

“You!”

The two of them joked around like this, completely unaware of how cruel the price of becoming stronger would be.

At noon, after quickly finishing lunch, Tang Siwen took the two of them to a certain place.

Then, on the way, the two of them reacted.

“Wait, are we going to the office?” Zhou Fu asked with slight caution.

“You don’t want us to go to Old Xiao, do you?” Chen Yuan also asked in confusion, “Is the secret technique to improve getting private tutoring?”

Tang Siwen stopped and looked at the two of them, saying, “Mr. Xiao is especially strong.”

“Of course he’s amazing, he’s a veteran special-grade teacher after all.” Zhou Fu agreed, but said a little embarrassed, “It’s lunchtime now, he’s getting on in years, isn’t he sleeping? It’s not good to disturb him at this time, right?”

Private tutoring did happen.

But it usually took place after class, before morning self-study, or before evening self-study, because he had some free time during these periods, but lunchtime was still spent in the grade group. Going there for one-on-one tutoring wouldn’t just affect Xiao Yang, it would make the other teachers in the grade group uncomfortable.

“It is his nap time, but no one chased me away, I’ve always been there.” Tang Siwen said after thinking for a moment.

“Hiss…”

Zhou Fu and Chen Yuan took a breath in sync, then exclaimed inwardly.

Only someone as insensitive as Tang Siwen could win everything.

“Follow me.” Tang Siwen gently raised her hand, then continued walking forward.

Just like that, the Furong Wang Yuan duo followed behind Tang Siwen and went to the physics grade group with her.

At this time, the teachers in the physics group were still chatting and laughing, some were still eating lunch boxes.

After Tang Siwen walked in, she went directly to Xiao Yang’s desk, moved a stool, and accepted his guidance.

After Xiao Yang said something, she nodded, then leaned on the table with her elbows and started correcting her mistakes.

Xiao Yang raised his head, saw the two people, and asked directly, “Why are you standing?”

Zhou Fu was startled and poked Chen Yuan in the waist, telling him to answer. So, Chen Yuan opened his mouth and said, “Ask, questions.”

Then, Xiao Yang reached out his hand.

Next, Chen Yuan gave the paper to him and moved his body over.

With Xiao Yang’s temper, Chen Yuan thought that he would first tease him, ‘You can make mistakes on these kinds of questions?’, but he didn’t say anything extra. He directly explained the steps to Chen Yuan in detail, and said that he would pause for a moment to see his reaction.

If Chen Yuan nodded, he would continue to explain.

If he didn’t say anything, he would stop and tell him why he had to do it this way.

Even if it was a knowledge point that he had just taught.

What’s going on?

The state of the class and private tutoring was completely different!

During class, he was like a ‘hating evil as if it were a personal enemy’ referee, with zero tolerance for any low-energy mistakes, casually criticizing and mocking.

But now, it was like teaching an idiot, the only goal was to – teach.

Suddenly, Chen Yuan understood Xiao Yang’s intention.

He wasn’t strict for no reason.

The reason why he had zero tolerance for idiots in class was to point out his mistakes through an example, that is, the person who was named, and to amplify his wrong ideas, so as to teach all the students in the class how to write the question correctly and how not to make the same mistakes.

The purpose of mockery and criticism was to strengthen memory.

But now, with private tutoring, there was no need to warn others, so he treated people like idiots, using his experience and ability as a special-grade teacher to teach the other party as much as possible.

Damn it, so awesome.

No wonder you are a special-grade teacher.

After Chen Yuan finished asking, he stood next to the table, bent over and corrected his mistakes on the desk.

“Do you want a stool?” Tang Siwen naturally asked Chen Yuan next to her.

“…” Chen Yuan was a little puzzled, did this guy not stay here for the past few days at noon, but was writing physics questions here all noon?

While Xiao Yang was explaining the questions to Zhou Fu, some teachers in the office were already leaning on the recliner, covered with blankets, and closed their eyes to rest.

Seeing this, Zhou Fu’s voice also became smaller.

After listening, she stood next to Chen Yuan and reminded him to leave quickly, more and more teachers were going to sleep.

But Chen Yuan thought that it would not be good to leave Tang Siwen here, after all, the three of them came to ask the teacher together.

However, as expected of Siwen-san, she was still calmly sitting and writing questions. Moreover, because she had finished correcting her mistakes, she was writing some extra physics teaching materials.

At this time, Xiao Yang closed his eyes and leaned on the recliner.

When Tang Siwen had something she didn’t understand, she directly extended the teaching material and said in a low voice, “Teacher.”

Then, Xiao Yang slowly opened his eyes and explained the questions to her while lying down.

Social anxiety!

Tang Siwen was definitely a social terrorist!

Shamelessly making small questioning sounds in the office, not feeling sorry for this nearly sixty-year-old physics teacher, not letting people rest well, completely immersed in her own world…

Was this the secret to becoming stronger?

What thick skin.

Xiao Yang also looked at the three people, knowing that too many people would affect his colleagues’ rest, so after thinking for a while, he suddenly said, “Chen Yuan, there is a conference room next door, you go to the teaching affairs director, Director Huang, and ask him to give you the key.”

“Ah? Then I’ll just say that Mr. Xiao asked me to get it?” Chen Yuan asked.

“Don’t mention me.” Xiao Yang shook his head, “The teacher doesn’t have this authority.”

Wait, you’re a special-grade teacher and you don’t have the authority? You want me to go?

“It’s okay, go.” Xiao Yang smiled and said with confidence, “Just explain your intentions, purpose, and make it clear that you only want to use it at noon.”

“Okay.” Chen Yuan nodded.

“Wait.” Xiao Yang called out to Chen Yuan and said again, “Be polite and pay attention to your self-introduction.”

Was self-introduction even useful?

You didn’t let me say your name, and then you just open your mouth and take the conference room to use?

As far as I knew, this was the office where the leaders held small meetings?

Although Chen Yuan didn’t understand, he could only do as he was told.

Just like that, he found the teaching affairs office and knocked on the door.

Then, he heard a voice saying, “Come in.”

He opened the door, walked inside, and saw two directors.

One should be the head, and the other should be the deputy.

“Director Huang?” Chen Yuan asked.

Then, a middle-aged man who was a little thin and looked a little stern nodded and asked calmly, “What is it?”

“Hello, teacher, my name is Chen Yuan, from Class 18, Grade 2.” Chen Yuan said politely, following what Old Xiao said.

Hearing Chen Yuan, Director Huang’s face suddenly became amiable from serious, and he asked with a smile, “What’s the matter?”

Why are you talking so gently…

“It’s like this.”

Chen Yuan thought that Old Xiao didn’t want him to mention him, probably because he was afraid of trouble, so he didn’t add any trouble to him, and explained, “I’m doing questions with Mr. Xiao at noon and need to ask him questions, but it will disturb other teachers in the office. So, I was wondering if I could borrow the conference room next door. Just for the noon time, it won’t delay the leaders’ normal use.”

Ah?

Borrow a conference room?

Wait, you’re a student borrowing a conference room?

If you’re getting private tutoring, then find some other empty classroom…

Oh, right, it can’t be too far from Mr. Xiao’s office, otherwise it won’t be convenient for him.

But conference rooms are used by leaders.

“Did Mr. Xiao say that?” Director Huang asked curiously.

“No.” Chen Yuan shook his head and answered directly.

“…”

In other words, you want to borrow it?

Ah, this, this, this.

Director Huang became more and more entangled.

Generally speaking, how could this kind of thing be lent to people casually?

If you say that, I definitely have to ask the leader for instructions.

But if someone else said this, he wouldn’t have the process of asking the leader for instructions.

“That, wait a moment.”

So, he lowered his head and sent a WeChat message to He Hongtao.

Chen Yuan is doing questions with Mr. Xiao at noon, afraid of disturbing others, and then Chen Yuan wants to borrow the conference room next door.

When sending this sentence, Director Huang specifically stated that Chen Yuan wanted to borrow it.

The purpose was to not offend anyone.

But after sending it, several minutes passed without a reply.

There was no ‘the other party is typing’.

Chen Yuan was still waiting here.

So, he sent another message:

Borrow it to Chen Yuan?

Logically speaking, he would directly drive away any student who asked this kind of question, unless a teacher asked for it.

Of course, no student had ever made this kind of request.

But, this person was different.

Chen Yuan was different from ninety-nine percent, or even ninety-nine point nine percent of the whole school.

More than once, He Hongtao showed his favoritism towards him.

And those who understood knew that the rumor that ‘Chen Yuan is a relative of He Hongtao’ was completely false.

The only reason for favoritism was that he was a genius that Eleven High School had not seen in ten years.

You have to know that Xiao Yang was the best physics teacher in the whole school, someone whom Fourth High School and First High School had privately invited. And Principal He Hongtao directly transferred this kind of teacher to Class 18, a very mediocre parallel class, just to serve one student.

Even the students in Class 1 didn’t have this kind of treatment.

Special mention, now the school’s first, second, and third grades, the three Class 1s, all use senior teachers, at most quasi-special grade teachers.

This was enough to show how much Principal He valued Chen Yuan.

To put it bluntly, to be arrogant, he even regarded him as the number one in the whole school to cultivate.

As for the more arrogant statement, such as the widely circulated ‘top scorer seedling’, Director Huang found it a bit difficult to say.

After all, it was a bit too magical for Eleven High School to produce a top scorer.

Director Huang didn’t think that the top scorer could be snatched from the hands of First High School and Fourth High School like He Hongtao.

So, should he lend it or not?

At this time, he looked at the head director, Director Xu.

Director Xu pretended to be busy, not wanting to get involved, after all, Chen Yuan was looking for him, not him.

“Director Huang?” Chen Yuan asked curiously.

Was Director Huang stuck? He hadn’t moved for a long time.

Hiss…

Looking at Chen Yuan, after hesitating for a while, Director Huang thought of the scene that day when Principal He mobilized several teachers and even directly and generously approved a teacher’s maternity leave in order to equip Chen Yuan with Xiao Yang. He felt that he should ponder the superior’s intentions.

And the result of inferring the superior’s intentions was: “Well, remember to lock the door before you leave.”

“…Thank you, Director Huang.”

Looking at the key in his hand, Chen Yuan was a little confused.

Did Director Huang do some kind of thought distortion without me knowing?

So easy to borrow?

Okay, I’ll ask for the key to He Hongtao’s office next time.

Just like that, Chen Yuan walked out of the office.

Then Director Xu smiled and said to Director Huang, “Does this Chen Yuan know that Principal He likes him very much?”

“…” Director Huang thought for a while and replied, “I think he knows a little, but looking at his eyes, he’s purely like he thinks that if students need that office, they can use it.”

………

Could it be that the school was so humanistic that even the conference room could be borrowed if students needed it?

No.

It should be because of me.

Could it be that He Bao would make a fuss about his scores every time after the exam, causing everyone to know that he and I were very close?

Chen Yuan wasn’t sure.

Because in his view, he had only met He Bao a few times.

The only time he showed off in public was after returning from the police station and getting into He Bao’s Jaguar.

But that time, only Tang Jian saw it and stupidly shouted Young Master.

Did this He Hongtao often slander me behind my back?

Couldn’t figure it out.

Forget it.

Thinking too much makes it easy to be narcissistic.

Just like that, Chen Yuan took the key and went to the physics grade group’s office.

“Mr. Xiao, I got the key.” Chen Yuan said.

Then, he looked over in disbelief: “You really got it?”

Wait.

You’re using me for an experiment, aren’t you?

A physics teacher next to him was also a little surprised, and then exclaimed, “Director Huang is indeed knowledgeable.”

Hearing this, Chen Yuan roughly confirmed that He Bao had really made his appreciation for him widely known.

Perhaps it wasn’t intentional, but it was true that everyone in the school now knew that he had a lot of face with He Hongtao.

Of course, this was also related to the fact that he had added himself when he individually corrected Sun Bai, the Holy Son’s, test paper last time.

Alright.

I’m now the executive deputy Holy Son.

Enjoying the treatment of the true Holy Son in formal occasions.

“Okay, then I won’t disturb the other teachers.”

Xiao Yang got up, picked up his thermos cup, and prepared to leave.

At this time, Chen Yuan gave the key to Zhou Fu, and after Xiao Yang got up, he folded his recliner and picked it up.

Xiao Yang turned his head and glanced at it, didn’t say anything, just smiled faintly, and left with Tang Siwen and Zhou Fu.

Just like that, the four of them went to the conference room together.

Three of the students sat on the chairs for meetings, using the conference table as a desk. And Xiao Yang, was on the recliner set up by Chen Yuan, closed his eyes, and meditated to rest.

Actually, it was immoral to toss an old man like this.

But Tang Siwen had done this kind of thing more than once, writing homework in the office and asking questions whenever she didn’t understand, indicating that Mr. Xiao Yang didn’t feel disturbed by it.

That’s right.

Xiao Yang didn’t mind answering their questions occasionally while lying down.

On the one hand, because He Hongtao told him to only take care of teaching and not do anything else, he was able to go home early every day and didn’t lack sleep.

On the other hand, Tang Siwen and Chen Yuan, these two top students, needed to get high scores in physics.

Tang Siwen was strong in science, as long as she guarded her math and science, it wouldn’t be a problem to get into a good 985 university.

Chen Yuan didn’t need to be said, his math was top-notch, his English was outstanding, and he lacked a lot in science, and physics was even worse. If he wanted to become a top scorer, he had to get a full mark in this subject, or only deduct one or two points.

Zhou Fu was similar.

She was much worse than those two students, but with 88 points in physics, she could still get over 580, close to 590. If she improved a little more, she could also rush to 600 and strive for a slightly worse 985 university.

In other words, these three people were able to ask him for private tutoring, indicating that they wanted to improve.

I was even thinking of pulling up those who didn’t want to improve.

And since they wanted to improve, I would definitely help them fly high.

For a relatively poor parallel class to produce three 985 students, this kind of record was much more glorious than bringing all the students in Class 1 to 985.

You have to know that this was almost the worst source of students in the whole school.

Of course, these achievements were mainly for Mr. Mo.

He was a good person, and it was right.

Xiao Yang’s only goal was to teach his physics well.

“Teacher, I can’t figure out why you have to write it this way.” Chen Yuan walked to Xiao Yang’s side, handed him the paper, and said, “Although I know the answer.”

Xiao Yang smiled and said, “Tang Siwen, come over and tell her your thoughts.”

Chen Yuan lacked the thinking of a top student.

Or rather, his talent in this physics subject wasn’t very good.

Of course, there was no saying that someone who got full marks in math and was extremely strong had to be top-notch in physics as well.

It was true that people who were good at math wouldn’t be bad at physics.

Chen Yuan was the type who wasn’t bad at physics, and could get over 90 with his own research, but that was it.

There were some concepts in physics, such as potential energy, electric potential, and potential difference, that needed to be mastered. At the same time, when doing problems, he also needed to combine the problem to analyze the process, transforming the abstract into the concrete.

You could become a ‘god of learning’ in math by doing more problems, seeing more, and mastering more.

But physics was different, it required research.

Chen Yuan came today to put down his status as a student of Ji University and Tsing Hua University and become an apprentice.

And the fact was that the questions he asked were really at the apprentice level.

While his eyes were closed, Xiao Yang opened his eyes slightly and glanced at Chen Yuan, who was concentrating and seemed to be putting his whole heart into learning, he had confidence.

If you have this attitude, wouldn’t it be easy to turn you into a physics master (specifically for exams)?

Just like that, in the fifty minutes after eating, the three people were here, learning until 1:20.

Because the first class in the afternoon started at 1:40, today’s private tutoring was over.

Chen Yuan carried the chair back to Xiao Yang’s office, and when he was about to go back to the classroom with Zhou Fu and Tang Siwen, Xiao Yang came out of the office and waved to Chen Yuan: “Come here for a moment.”

Chen Yuan walked over and asked, “Teacher, what’s wrong?”

“Compared to Tang Siwen, you’re far behind.” Xiao Yang said suddenly.

Chen Yuan nodded and admitted, “Yeah.”

“There’s another month and a half until the physics exam, the final exam, and the seven-school joint exam.” Xiao Yang looked at Chen Yuan and said, “During this time, focus your main energy on learning physics, do you have any objections?”

“Yeah, definitely.” Chen Yuan nodded, saying understandingly, “I’m still very lacking in physics.”

“Although it’s not bragging.” Xiao Yang held the thermos cup, looked at Chen Yuan, and said faintly, “Back then, there was a top scorer whose physics score was full marks.”

Top scorer?

How did we get to this topic?

Although Chen Yuan had this ultimate goal, should the teacher say this kind of thing?

The best way to destroy a person was to overpraise him!

“You may not know, Principal He regards you as a top scorer seedling.”

Old Xiao didn’t have the habit of keeping secrets, even if he shouldn’t tell the students about this, he didn’t care what kind of impact it would cause, and said seriously, “Since you have this kind of potential, and he specially transferred me to Class 18 to teach you, then when you compare with others, you can’t lose in this physics subject.”

Betting my ethics and dignity as a special-grade teacher.

In the competition with Shi Yi for the top scorer, I can only win or tie in physics.

If I lose in physics, but win in total score.

It’s the same as me losing.

“Okay.”

Chen Yuan didn’t really want everyone to know that he was going to be the man who aimed to win the championship in Xia Hai.

Because if he didn’t get it at that time, he would be questioned by the haters: Chen Yuan, what championship are you?

Because excluding Shi Yi, Liu Yiyang’s score in previous years was already the top scorer, so he thought that being in the top ten in this year with so many monsters would be a success.

But this old man was obviously a bit of a chuunibyou old man and a teacher with a rushing spirit.

Okay, then let’s compete.

The rising steam of the rising!

“Goodbye, teacher.”

After bowing slightly to Xiao Yang, Chen Yuan turned around and returned to Tang Siwen and Zhou Fu.

“This secret technique is very powerful, right?” Tang Siwen said to Chen Yuan with some pride.

“Indeed, let’s start the special training from tomorrow.” Chen Yuan nodded to Tang Siwen, expressing his approval.

However, Zhou Fu complained with drooping eyelids, “I’m so sleepy, woo woo…”

“The remaining twenty minutes are for us to go back and make up for sleep.” Tang Siwen said with experience.

“Will twenty minutes be a bit long?” Chen Yuan asked.

“Then fifteen minutes tomorrow?”

“No…” Hearing this, Zhou Fu, whose level was far from them and not in the same dimension at all, was about to cry, “Don’t be so competitive, everyone…”

………

In the principal’s office, He Hongtao, who was leaning on the recliner, woke up naturally.

After yawning, he looked at his phone.

There were many messages.

But Director Huang mentioned Chen Yuan.

So he directly clicked on Director Huang’s WeChat.

Looking at the phone, his expression gradually changed from dazed to clear.

Good thing.

Before, he thought that Chen Yuan might be lazy if he didn’t transfer to Class 1.

But now, he was even seizing the time during lunch break to overcome his weak subjects.

Huang Xiao: Lend it to Chen Yuan?

Looking at this message, He Hongtao didn’t even think about it, and calmly typed two words and sent:

Give it to him.

This is the only chapter today, going to sleep, babies.

(End of chapter)
