Chapter 17
Lily left the dance studio and immediately left the school. Soon, word of Lilyâs het with Nancy circulated among the teachers. Many teachers laughed at Lily for being overconfident Only John saw potential in Lily, and his eyes gleaned with confidence.
Upon hearing the news, Class 18âs students were depressed. However, they quickly regained their composure.
âLily has always been good to us, and this time, sheâs standing up for us. We canât let her down. Even if we donât win, we still have to aim for good grades,â one student said. âBut the midterm exams are in two weeks. No matter how much effort we put in, we canât get good gradesâ
âWhatever. Letâs just do our best!â
Just as everyone was gearing up to study hard, Lily entered the room. She carried a pile of things. From a distance, no one could see what they were
Lily placed the items on the teacherâs desk. She then pointed at Emma and said, âDistribute them to everyone.â
Emma paused and then nodded. âAlright.â
As she approached, she realized the items were a stack of materials and practice questions.
Emma looked puzzled at Lily but didnât say anything. She simply began distributing the materials and questions to her classmates
Holding a piece of chalk, Lily wrote the number twelve on the blackboard with one hand in her pocket. Then, she tossed the chalk away.
She stared at the students of Class 18 and anounced, âStarting today, everyone in class 18 will live on campus, with no breaks between classes and no weekends.
âI will review the syllabus starting from 9th grade with you until the end of the midterm exams,â
Tan, who was sitting in the back row, Laughed casually. âLily, I know you donât want to lose, but you are teaching us? With your grades. you might lead us astray, right?â
Lily gave him a cold, disdainful look.
Lan shuddered and hastily said, âUh, I was just joking.â
Lily continued, âIâll start from the front row.â
During the study period, no teacher was around Lily went directly to the first boy in the front row. He was Julian, the math class representative
Julian initially thought to tell Lily he could learn on his own, but her cold attitude made him besitate to speak up.
Sean leaned over to lan and whispered, âIs Lily under too much pressure? Teaching us will only make things worse.â
lan, feeling pressured, ran his hand through his hair. âForget it. If Lilyâs teaching isnât right, wer means giving it our allâ
can research on our own. We have to move up a few places this time, even if it
Sean sighed and said nothing more. Ignoring the studentsâ discussions, Lily instructed Julian to take out the 9thâgrade textbook.
Her imposing presence made Juan feel intimidated as he obediently retrieved the textbook
Lily opened the textbook to the third page, marked a key point, and then pointed to a problem in the distributed materials to explain
Lily spoke at a moderate pace, providing detailed explanations. Initially, Julian knew only one solution, but after Lilyâs explanation, he discovered several correct solutions. without realizing it, Julian was drawn into Lilyâs teaching. His grades were decent, and he ranked tenth in the class. However, Lilyâs instructions clarified everything for him immediately.
Once he grasped the fundamentals, the following problems became simpler to solve. The handwritten notes Lily provided were comprehensive.
In less than half the time of a regular class, Julian had mastered all of othâgrade math and comprehended it thoroughly. He was amazed.
In the next hall of the period, Lilyâs peace quickened she covered the 10th and 11thâgrade courses together. Surprisingly, Julian kept up with all of it
The selfâstudy period ended quickly Lily stood up, looked at Julian, and calmly said, âYou have two days to complete those sets of problems. No copying answers, and leave blanks if you donât know how to sobe them.â
vkay â Julian was now in awe of her, unable to say anything else.
