Chapter 728: Unexpected Gains
The sudden scare jolted Jian Dan, who fell straight from her chair onto the floor.
Falling to the ground, Jian Dan looked up at her looming teacher, not even bothering with the pain, and quickly stood up, her smile extremely awkward.
“You dare to sleep during my class? Pretty bold of you!”
“Sorry, teacher, it wasn’t intentional; I just didn’t sleep well last night!” Jian Dan could only lie that she hadn’t slept well the night before.
“Didn’t sleep well? Is that an excuse? Ask anyone in this classroom—who has had a good night’s sleep, who hasn’t been reviewing until midnight?” the teacher pointed around the whole class.
Jian Dan knew this excuse was weak, but it was the only one she had thought of in the moment.
“Teacher, I’m sorry, I’m wrong, I will never sleep in your class again!” Apologizing always seemed the right thing to do at that time, didn’t it?
“What do you mean, ‘you will not sleep in my class again’? So, you mean to say that you can sleep in other teachers’ classes? I’m telling you, it’s not just about offending me. You’re letting yourself down, you’re letting down your parents who worked hard to send you to school! Do you understand?”
Is this teacher being a bit too pedantic?
She’d never been reprimanded by a teacher before, had she?
(Please, with your straight-A student persona, teachers don’t have enough time to like you, let alone scold you!)
“You know? You know and you still sleep in class?”
“Then I don’t know!” Jian Dan hurriedly corrected herself.
“You don’t know? You actually dare to say you don’t know?”
“Teacher, what exactly do you want me to say?” Jian Dan looked at the teacher somewhat helplessly.
“What kind of attitude is this towards your teacher?”
“What did I even say?”
If the other person wasn’t a teacher, Jian Dan probably would have lost her composure by now.
This teacher was simply unreasonable and impossible to argue with.
For the first time, Jian Dan experienced the taste of being wrong no matter what she said.
Suddenly, she felt like she couldn’t speak properly at all.
“You have no respect for your teachers!”
How had she shown a lack of respect? What exactly had she done?
Jian Dan had no idea how she had managed to infuriate the teacher to this extent.
Since anything she said would anger the teacher, she decided she might as well keep quiet.
“What’s this, a silent protest?”
At this point, Jian Dan couldn’t hold back anymore.
This teacher was completely irrational!
Whatever she said was wrong, and so was silence!
“Teacher, why don’t you just tell me what you want to hear, and I’ll say it for you, how about that?” Jian Dan finally couldn’t help but confront the teacher directly.
“You, you, you—I’ve never encountered a student like you!”
“I haven’t encountered a teacher like you either!” How unlucky to meet such a ridiculous teacher.
“I was wondering why someone would transfer at this time; now I finally understand. With a student like you, which school would want you! You were probably expelled by your previous school!”
“To make such assertions without any basis, do you think you’re fit to be a teacher?” Jian Dan shot back without mincing her words.
“You dare to talk back to the teacher !”
“I’m simply stating the facts. Isn’t it my right to defend myself against unfair treatment here?” Jian Dan didn’t back down.
Who knows who tipped off Zhang Yang.
When Zhang Yang hurried over, he saw the two embroiled in a heated debate.
“Teacher Wang, what’s going on?” Zhang Yang approached the two.
“What’s going on? Zhang Yang, this transfer student has no respect for teachers, daring to talkback to the teacher,” Teacher Wang’s hand was trembling from anger.
“Jian Dan, what happened?”
“I just accidentally fell asleep during class!”
The truth was, he had noticed Jian Dan sleeping during class, but he hadn’t said anything.
“Sleeping during class time is wrong, you should apologize to Teacher Wang!”
” I already apologized right away!”
“Then why…” Why did it still turn into this mess after an apology.
“You should ask Teacher Wang!” Because Jian Dan herself didn’t know the reason, how could she explain it to someone else.
“You haven’t apologized at all, and your attitude towards me has been extremely poor!”
The real-world example of blatant distortion of truth was utterly astonishing!
“You can ask the other students! See if I’ve wronged her!”
Since he dared to say that, he naturally was convinced no one would dare to speak up for Jian Dan.
As his laugh grew more and more brazen, a girl stood up and said, “She indeed apologized!”
Jian Dan had never imagined that the person who would stand up and speak for her would be Yang Xiaoting!
