The winter break had started for seven or eight days, and with the New Year approaching, about one-third of the students in ss 2-1 were still attending school.
The reason was simple - these unfortunate souls still owed ss participation points to their ss Teacher.
Shi Li saw the group message and found it incredibly hard to believe. When she, Rongrong, and Fu Huixing went for intensive training a month ago, the student with the most negative points only had minus five.
However, now that the winter break had started for nearly a week, many students were still attending sses, which meant that one-third of the ss had at least negative seven points.
As for who owed the most points, she didn''t know yet.
After returning home, Shi Li didn''t waste time and called the ss Teacher.
She expressed her wish to "visit" her ssmates who hadn''t started their break yet on Monday morning.
The ss Teacher had no objections and told her she coulde whenever she wanted; she just needed to inform the security guard at the school gate.
Since this was a visit, Shi Li couldn''te empty-handed.
This was one of the advantages of being at home - she only needed to tell the housekeeper, and everything would be prepared for her.
Since she wasn''t going to regr sses, Shi Li didn''t need to arrive at the usual school time. At nine in the morning, her driver dropped her off at the school gate, along with the coffee she had brought.
Although there were only about ten drinks in total, the driver was worried Shi Li couldn''t carry them and wanted to help bring them inside.
However, the security guard remained diligent even during the holiday period. While Shi Li was allowed in after showing her school badge and mentioning the ss Teacher''s name, the driver wasn''t so lucky.
The guard wouldn''t let the driver in under any circumstances.
Shi Li herself thought carrying two bags of drinks wasn''t a big deal, but the driver was concerned about her getting tired.
Seeing that Shi Li looked quite delicate, the security guard offered to help carry the drinks inside.
With this, the driver finally stopped insisting on entering.
So Shi Li was escorted by the security guard to the ssroom door.
When she entered the ssroom, her ssmates were all writing diligently, studying seriously, with not a single person cking off.
Shi Li was surprised, considering these troublemakers who had umted so many negative points were usually very unfocused during regr school days, often daydreaming and getting distracted.
It was precisely because they would ck off during regr sses that they ended up owing points.
Usually, even with a good study atmosphere, these students would often zone out. Now, when most of the school was empty with only about a dozen of them left while everyone else was on break.
In these circumstances where it would be easiest to lose focus, these students were actually able to concentrate on studying. Shi Li found it absolutely incredible.
The reason for this situation was entirely due to pressure from the ss Teacher.
Originally, the student with the most negative points only had minus seven. When others were on break while they had to attend school, the students inevitably became restless and distracted, thinking they just needed to get through these few days.
However, after coasting through several days, the ss Teacher brought out the ssroom surveince footage, stating that zoning out and sleeping during self-study periods would still result in point deductions.
Those who originally owed seven points ended up owing even more after attending sses for a few days.
Nobody wanted to study seriously at this time, but they had no choice as the ss Teacher was watching closely. To have at least some holiday break, they could only study earnestly.
After entering the ssroom, Shi Li ced the coffee on the teacher''s desk, "I know everyone''s working hard, so I brought some coffee to help you stay alert, and some small cakes if you get hungry."
The ssmates wanted to thank Shi Li, but since it was during ss time and they had been frightened by the ss Teacher, they worried that Shi Li might be sent by the teacher to test them.
So after Shi Li finished speaking, no one responded, and no one went to get the coffee from the desk.
Shi Li didn''t quite understand - her ssmates weren''t usually like this. She wondered what had happened to them.
Thankfully, Shi Li was mentally strong, otherwise she might have thought she was being ostracized.
She hadn''t just brought coffee for her ssmates; she had a portion for the ss Teacher too.
Shi Li took out a coffee and a small cake from the bag and knocked on the ss Teacher''s office door, feeling puzzled.
Hearing the knock, the ss Teacher quickly turned off a video, but Shi Li still heard the sound.
She thought to herself, [The ss Teacher is quite rxed, watching sports while the students are studying in the ssroom.]
However, she didn''t expose him, pretending she didn''t know he was watching sports.
ss Teacher: It''s no different than being exposed anyway.
The ss Teacher gestured for her to sit opposite him, "You''re here?"
Shi Li ced the coffee and small cake on his desk, "I know you''re working hard during overtime, so I specially brought you an Americano to help you stay alert."
The ss Teacher''s mouth twitched. If Shi Li hadn''t mentally noted that he was watching sports in his office during work hours, herment about him working hard would have seemed sincere.
Now it just sounded sarcastic to his ears.
The ss Teacher didn''t respond to that, just waved for her to sit down, "I haven''t asked you yet, how was the intensive training?"
He had wanted to ask this during their phone callst night, but considering Shi Li would being to school today, he thought the conversation would be better in person, so he had patiently waited until today to ask.
Shi Li chatted with the ss Teacher for a long time about what happened during the training, the daily ss format, what kind of problems they solved, and what kind of teachers they met.
The conversation made Shi Li very thirsty. While the ss Teacher had his iced Americano to quench his thirst, Shi Li regretted not bringing a drink for herself.
After talking for a long while, the ss Teacher suddenly remembered there were still more than ten students in the ssroom. He quickly wrapped up the conversation, telling Shi Li to save their chat forter as he needed to check on the students.
Since Shi Li hadn''te just to chat with the ss Teacher, she followed behind him as they headed toward the ssroom.
Near the ssroom, Shi Li mimicked the teacher''s posture, peering through the window at the scene inside.
At this point, Shi Li was surprised to discover that each student had a cup of coffee ced at the corner of their desk.
Shi Li felt quite shocked, [The ssmates are acting a bit strange]Aliali: 674aec4f3f33ac49acb42
The moment Shi Li''s inner thoughts were heard, the students knew she was nearby. They weren''t sure if the teacher was there too, but they acted as if he was.
After Shi Li''s thoughts were broadcast, the ss Teacher mentally eximed "oh no." Originally, he could have approached the ss quietly, but now it was like he had a radar detector with him, constantly alerting these kids.
His attempt at a surprise inspection had lost its meaning. The ss Teacher nced at Shi Li, no longer interested in asking about the training, and indicated she could return to the ssroom.
Shi Li didn''t mind; she was thirsty and needed to go back to the ssroom to get something to drink anyway.
Afraid of disturbing her studying ssmates, she tried to pour water as quietly as possible.
Whenever she wasn''t studying, Shi Li''s mind was very active. She watched the thin stream of water.
[Teacher Sun from ss Ten was doing that thing with the ss Six Head Teacher in the small woods during lunch break. What excuse should I use to appear in the small woods after lunch break?]
The ssmates: !! Coming to school these days was worth it just for this!
The ss Teacher who hadn''t gone far: !! Nothing''s better than colleague gossip!
Othersfortably lounging at home: Cancel the break, I''ming to school!
