Chapter 14 Accent
Han Zixin tried to use the glare he used on other students to scare them away but An Xiulan picked her thick English to Chinese dictionary to scare him away.
And for some reason, Han Zixin was genuinely scared of the thick dictionary that An Xiulan was carrying with her. It had be as thick as her.
What was wrong with this woman carrying deadly weapons with her to class?
Their fight intensified when Han Zi Xin grabbed her cute eraser from her pencil case to compel her to hide her weapon away but who was An Xiulan?
She wasn’t going to let him take her eraser with a fight.
However, Han Zi Xin had longer arms and he raised his arm in the air to not let her short arm reach the eraser placed between his fingers After several failed attempts to win back her eraser, she took another approach and decided to used her slow brain. Standing up on her feet, she successfully grabbed her eraser from the hold of the cheat man!
Her mother worked hard every day and night not to let some cheater and liars steal her beloved daughter’s stuff..
Hmph!
All of this was happening when Teacher Wang was making the last announcement for everyone who wanted to be an English representative to stand up.
As his gaze fell on the girl who was standing up with a proud look on her delicate face, his face bloomed to form a smile.
Finally, there was a student who cared enough for him and his subject.
How nice!
Unbeknownst to Teacher Wang, An Xiulan was proud of her because she had gotten her stolen eraser back from a liar and cheater. She even patted her shoulder for being as brave as princess Yun of her era.
“What’s your name?” Teacher Wang asked.
An Xiulan , who was feeling extremely proud a moment ago for snatching her eraser from the enemy, froze. Slowly and slowly looked up to glance at the teacher standing on the podium. His hands were placed on the lecture stand while he was gently smiling at her.
“My?” An Xiulan inquired, pointing a finger at herself.
Teacher Wang nodded with a smile.
“An Xiulan,” replied An Xiulan while blinking her big doe eyes.
“Such a good girl! She voluntarily agreed to be English representatives.”
Teacher Wang naturally liked kids who showed their willingness to learn English better than others.
“English Representative?” An Xiulan repeated the words with a look on her face that suggested that she might be chewing on a bitter gourd.
‘What’s this thing?’ An Xiulan asked in her head.
‘And what was her teacher talking about?’
“Perfect! She even has an accent!” Teacher Wang clapped for her. He could hear a slight accent in her voice.
“Accent?” An Xiulan made a face and turned her head to glance at Han Zin Xin who was looking at her with sympathy. As she instinctively turned to look at him, he quickly averted his gaze, feigning as if he didn’t know this cartoon.
‘Blockhead!’ he screamed in her head.
An Xiulan’s slow brain sparked with an idea.
‘Accent as in scent?’ She smiled at the teacher and smelled her hand. This must be because she had washed her hand with a fragrant vial dripping from another magic machine installed in the school washroom.
By another magic machine, she meant the automatic touchless handwash machine. She was intrigued by that machine so much that she had washed her hand at least ten times. She loved modern man’s toys.
An Xiulan brightly smiled at the teacher. She had the scent.
“Would you like to be an English representative for Class Ten?” Teacher Wang asked her again.
An Xiulan nodded at him with a blinding smile. She didn’t know what this thing actually was but as long as she had a good scent. Everything would be cool.
Even at this time, she was unable to differentiate between accent and scent.
Later, the teacher gave An Xiulan a badge for English Representative and for the entire period she was grinning like a fool. Han Zi Xin who was sitting next to her was shuddering the entire time.
This little blockhead was creepy.
….
Author Note: I don’t know what to do with An Xiulan sometimes. She is just too creative in her head. The things she does and thinks are out of this world. As much as I love to write her, I feel as if I can see Han Zi Xin’s expressions vividly. The poor guy must be thinking where he is stuck!
If you guys are thinking that there are too many school scenes, you must know that the novel is mainly a school campus novel. These students are the main characters of the book. You will see them often. However, it doesn’t mean that the book is only set in a school, there are many other places too. But since it’s the beginning of the novel, the world setting takes time to follow.
Also, this novel is a slice of life. Trust me, you won’t meet Vampires or Werewolves here.
Just two kind of students. Good students and reformed students. There is no bad student. It just takes effort to reform them.
PS: I get comments today and so I’m posting next chapters. I won’t ask for more just give me a single comment to tell me you guys are reading the book. You guys don’t know what your gesture mean to mean.
