Chapter 429 - Zi Yi Is the Treasure to the Class

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

By the time Zi Yi arrived at the classroom, the teacher was already inside.

People would usually sneak in through the back door if they were in her situation.

But by the time she had walked over to the back door, she had been caught red-handed by the sharp eyed teacher. He was clearly paying attention to when she would arrive.

“Student Zi, come in from the front door.”

The teacher was a middle-aged man in his forties, surnamed Zhou. He gave off the temperament of someone from an engineering background and he did not appear to be strict nor kind, but was clearly a man with a fair temperament.

Zi Yi walked towards the front door and everyone stared at her.

Teacher Zhou said, “I heard that you answered all of the questions the Ancient Literature teacher had asked and that he gave you the right not to attend class this semester?”

Everyone turned their attention to Teacher Zhou and subconsciously felt that he wanted to follow suit.

Zi Yi did not know the intentions behind Teacher Zhou asking that question. She merely nodded her head. “Yes.”

Teacher Zhou praised her by saying, “Very good.”

He then said, “You’re late for my first lesson and I shall not deduct your marks. Instead, I’ll ask you five questions and if you can answer all of them correctly, you are allowed to be late for my lessons in the future. Otherwise, it’ll be one mark for every minute you are late.”

Everyone present: “…!”

Teacher Zhou was so ruthless!

All of them looked at Zi Yi with a sympathetic gaze.

There was not the slightest change in Zi Yi’s expression. “Please go ahead.”

Teacher Zhou was satisfied with her answer. He did not directly allow her to step in and immediately asked, “The component was damaged under a change of force. What is the most effective and quickest repair method besides the one that everyone knows?”

Everyone present: “…!”

All of them knew that they had not learned of the method!

Just the first question alone was tough!

Zi Yi answered without any difficulty, “Other than the usual method, there is also…”

The more the students listened, the quicker their heartbeats became. Even though they were still unable to understand the knowledge at present, they subconsciously felt that it would be very useful for them in the future. Therefore, everyone quickly grabbed their pens and wrote down her answer, while some of them had simply taken out their mobile phones or laptops to record.

Teacher Zhou was also surprised deep down when he heard Zi Yi’s answer. The question he asked had far surpassed the scope of content a freshman would cover.

Just then, he swept his gaze across the class and nodded in satisfaction.

After Zi Yi answered the first question, Teacher Zhou immediately asked the second.

When the last question was answered, Teacher Zhou gave her a thumbs up. “Not bad, you have answered all the questions correctly. You’re allowed to be late in future lessons. Right now we’ll start the lesson, you can go and find a seat and sit down.”

Zi Yi nodded her head and walked over to an empty seat.

There were fewer female students than male students in the engineering major and the moment Zi Yi sat down, all their gazes had subconsciously turned in her direction.

How could there be such a beautiful girl?

“All the male students, look in my direction.”

Teacher Zhou tapped the table with a piece of chalk and straightforwardly attacked their confidence. “Two of the questions I asked earlier were junior knowledge level and I also asked questions where she gave additional knowledge. Zi Yi could easily answer the questions, so what rights do you have to sneak a peek at her instead of listening in class?

Only outstanding people have the right to befriend outstanding individuals. Do you think you are qualified to be friends with her?”

None of the students capable of entering M.Uni are bad in their studies. How could those favored students stand such a blow to their ego? They immediately looked away, and as if they had been injected with drugs, all of them swore to catch up to Zi Yi.

Teacher Zhou nodded his head in satisfaction and felt that his decision was extremely correct.

He would not allow Zi Yi to skip attending lessons like what the Ancient Literature Teacher had done because with Zi Yi around, the others would be able to study better.

Zi Yi was simply a treasure to the class.

After the class ended, Zi Yi had to return to the Archaeology Department.

When she walked over to the Chinese Literature Department, she heard tons of people talking.

“The Student Union is recruiting and there will be a recruitment fair in the following days. Do you want to give it a try?”

“Definitely, It’s my dream to enter the Student Union.”

“Unfortunately, the requirements to enter are too high. I don’t think I can get in.”

“The department heads of several important positions are vacant this year and I wonder who can successfully assume the position.”

…

While chatting, they saw Zi Yi walking past them and started to discuss it again.

“Say, do you think Zi Yi would apply for the Student Union?”

“I think so? Being able to enter the Student Union proves one’s ability. She’s so outstanding and it doesn’t make sense for her to not enter the Student Union.”

“I wonder which position she would apply for.”

“Perhaps she might apply for the Learning Officer position.”

“The position of the Learning Officer is very popular and there will definitely be many outstanding individuals competing for it.”

“It’s more exciting this way. When they start competing, we’ll be able to vote.”

“Just the thought of it makes me feel excited. I wonder how Zi Yi will canvas for votes when the time comes.”

…

Half a day’s time passed by very quickly. In the afternoon, Dou Xiaoyong gave her a call and said, “Little Zi, I’ll be heading to the research lab in the afternoon, come with me.”

Zi Yi thought about what lessons she had in the afternoon and realized that they were classes from different schools. “My lessons in the afternoon are rather scattered and it’s not easy to request for leave.”

Dou Xiaoyong had already thought of a solution on her behalf. “No worries, send me the lessons you have and I’ll get the leave for you.”

Zi Yi replied with an ok. After hanging up the phone, she sent her afternoon lessons to him.

Zi Yi was currently walking towards the canteen together with Li Xia.

Li Xia asked her, “Zi Yi, the Student Union seems to be recruiting these days, do you want to try it out?”

“What positions are there?” Zi Yi casually asked.

“The Learning Department, Entertainment Department, External Relations Department and Technical Department’s officers are all seniors and they will be stepping down.”

In fact, all the departments were recruiting but Li Xia felt that Zi Yi might not necessarily apply to be a member.

“I’m not interested in these positions.” Zi Yi had said so in the past that if she were to apply, it would be for the Student Union President position. She was disinterested in other positions.

Li Xia was surprised. “Why? Being able to enter the Student Union of M.Uni is everyone’s dream. As long as you are able to enter the Student Union, be it applying for jobs outside in the future or other things, you’ll be able to receive an advantage over others.”

“Since there’s an advantage, you should go and apply for it.”

“Mmh, I’m planning to apply for the position of a member of the External Relations Department. I’ve already inquired about it. They are recruiting eight members this year and the chances of getting in are higher than that of other departments.”

Zi Yi said, “Good luck.”

Li Xia was immediately full of confidence, but she still pressed on and asked, “Zi Yi, you really don’t intend to apply for the officer positions?”

“Nope.”

While talking, they arrived at the entrance of the canteen.

The other students were also discussing the news of the Student Union recruitment.

After they entered, Li Xia had actively gone to get food for both of them while Zi Yi occupied their seats.

Just as Zi Yi found a seat and sat down, a female student with a high ponytail and a heroic appearance came over to her direction.

“Zi Yi.”

When the female student stood next to Zi Yi, everyone present looked towards the both of them.

Some people had recognized her and were particularly surprised.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“The department belle and genius of the Economics Department, Chen Yuying came to find Zi Yi? Could it be due to the campus belle election?”
