Rebirth: Starting from a Trainee Teacher

Chapter 144 I look good today
【I do not regret】

Zhou Jing sent a QQ message to Yang Wenwen with a smile.

Yang Wenwen:
【(beat)】

【I went to bed early】

Zhou Jing: [Good night]

Yang Wenwen: [Good night]

Putting down his phone, Zhou Jing continued to write his novel. Tonight, Zhou Jing felt refreshed and his fingers were moving as fast as a rocket.

It is now 10 in the Gregorian calendar. Most people read online novels on small-screen mobile phones and have no patience to read the words. Besides, fantasy novels are all about excitement and thrill, so as long as the story is exciting enough, the writing style of an elementary school student will do.

Zhou Jing switched to the largest novel website. It had to be said that the competition was very fierce. Most of the great writers Zhou Jing knew were here, and they were all serializing their works in a hurry. Moreover, they were all very popular works, and they were still classics even ten years later. It was not easy for newcomers to stand out.

Thinking of the fact that she had personally guided Zhou Jing, Yang Wenwen wanted to find a crack in the wall to crawl into.

It was late at night and everyone was asleep. Yang Wenwen patted her head to stop herself from thinking too much, but she couldn't help but think about it.

There have been a lot of things to do recently, so Zhou Jing continued to stay up late to write his novel, typing away on the keyboard. Before he knew it, it was past three o'clock before he went to bed.

The next day was Sunday, and there was no tutoring for his cousin’s monthly exam at school, so Zhou Jing slept until he woke up naturally.

"what!"

Stretching, Zhou Jing picked up his mobile phone and checked the time. It was past ten o'clock.

It's sunny outside, and the sunlight shines into the bedroom through the curtains. The room heating is very warm, and it doesn't feel cold even if you only wear short sleeves in the room. Sometimes it makes people forget whether it is winter or summer.

【早安】

Zhou Jing opened QQ and saw a message from Chen Jiaqian. Zhou Jing replied with "Good morning, wake up".

Zhou Jing got up and turned over the quilt, noticing that the sheets were mottled. He even took off the quilt cover and washed them together. He cleaned the house in the morning, and Liu Hanyu came to see Zhou Jing at noon.

"You are quite diligent in washing the sheets and quilt covers. Some boys don't wash them once every six months."

Liu Hanyu said as she looked at the boy hanging clothes.

"Those guys are a minority. We wash at least once a month in our dormitory."

Zhou Jing's roommates in college are all relatively self-disciplined, and none of them are very sloppy. There are many boys like the ones Liu Hanyu described in the college's Chen Quan dormitory. The last time Zhou Jing went to Chen Quan dormitory, he estimated that at least four of the eight people didn't wash their bed sheets or quilt covers once or twice in half a year. The blue bed sheets and quilt covers were almost turning black.

"Have you ever had any children here?"

Liu Hanyu noticed the donkey and giant panda drawn on the paper on the table.

"The high school class teacher brought his children to visit us last night."

Zhou Jing explained calmly that he was not afraid of being asked questions because he did not throw the paper away.

Liu Hanyu didn't think much about it, put down the paper and said, "What are you going to eat later?"

"Noodle."

Zhou Jing has a good appetite today.

"Sometimes giving up is not necessarily a bad thing. I feel so relieved after giving up the national exam."

Liu Hanyu did not take the national civil service exam in December. She was able to go to work peacefully and naturally felt less anxious. Although her workplace was a bit far from home, the dormitory provided by the company was very good.

"When will you become a regular employee?"

Zhou Jing finished hanging up the clothes and prepared to go out for dinner.

"The internship period is six months. I started in September and will be hired as a full-time employee in February if nothing goes wrong. After dinner, I'll treat you to a movie."

Liu Hanyu calculated the time. She had been working for four months and had saved several thousand yuan. However, she had never treated Zhou Jing to a proper meal during this long period of time. Today, she had dinner at home and would go to the movies in the afternoon.

After dinner, Zhou Jing took Liu Hanyu to Rongda Cinema. Liu Hanyu chose a romance movie, but Zhou Jing didn’t care what they watched, he just wanted to kill time.

Soon it was time for ticket checking, and Zhou Jing and Liu Hanyu checked their tickets and entered. This cinema was close to Yulin College, and there were many people watching movies on weekends. Zhou Jing and Liu Hanyu's seats were in the middle, and the two of them watched the movie quietly.

The movie ended around three in the afternoon. It was still early for dinner, and it was too cold to go shopping, so Liu Hanyu went to Zhou Jing's place.

"I have to go to work again tomorrow."

Liu Hanyu said listlessly as he sat on the sofa.

"Be content. I have to go to work tonight."

"You have winter and summer vacations. What are you going to do during your winter vacation? Are you going to go home during the vacation?"

“We’ll see when the time comes.” Zhou Jing will have a lot of things to do during the winter vacation.

After dinner at around six o'clock, Liu Hanyu went home and Zhou Jing went to school. When they arrived at school, it was almost time for evening self-study class, so Zhou Jing went to the office to wait for the class.

Yang Wenwen arrived at the office at about the same time. When she saw Zhou Jing, she avoided his eyes, but her face became slightly hot unconsciously.

"You're obviously mad at me."

Zhou Jing said pretending to be sad.

"Not really."

Yang Wenwen coughed lightly and looked out the window.

The teacher came from the next office, and Zhou Jing stopped teasing.

No matter what you do in private, you should pay attention to your words and actions at school.

Yang Wenwen sat at her desk, glanced at the boy looking at the computer screen, opened her phone and typed a text message: [Don't let your mind wander, just work hard, got it?]

Buzz!

The phone on the table vibrated twice. Zhou Jing opened it and read the reply:
[Don't worry, I can face it calmly]

Yang Wenwen calmed herself down. Now that things had come to this, she could only face it calmly.

After the bell rang, they both went to their respective classrooms.

"After class, the English class representative went to the office to get the homework. It has not been corrected yet. I will hand it out and do it first. Teacher Gu has something to do and will take a day off tomorrow. We will correct the homework together next time."

Zhou Jing glanced at Feng Yuhua and said.

A relative of Gu Jia passed away, so Gu Jia went to the banquet. She left on Saturday and will not be back until tomorrow night.

"Is there English class tomorrow?"

"Other teachers will take the class." Zhou Jing walked around the corridor and returned to the podium and said, "There is not much time left in this semester. I have already had three monthly exams. Have you met your expectations at the beginning of the semester?"

"No."

The students all sighed in unison, those with good grades were humble, and those with poor grades were disappointed.

"Don't be discouraged. Not meeting your expectations doesn't mean there's no hope. Don't play around during the winter break. Make up for any shortcomings. It's never too late as long as you work hard."

There are always some students who fall behind, and Zhou Jing can only say this over and over again.

According to the admission rate in previous years, between 60 and 65 percent of the parallel classes in Experimental Middle School can get into a second-tier university or above. There are more than 50 students in a class, which means that more than ten to twenty students cannot get into a second-tier university. For the vast majority of students, failing to get into a second-tier university is equivalent to not getting into college, and the tuition for a third-tier university is not affordable for ordinary families.

No matter how much chicken soup the head teacher gives or how much the reality is cruel, some students just won't listen. Some people just can't change, no matter how hard they try.

Sometimes teachers feel sad because they want to change their students but cannot.

After staying in the classroom for half a class, Zhou Jing went to the dormitory. After the second evening self-study class, he went to the classroom to take a look and went to the office to steal vegetables to pass the time.

"see?"

Yang Wenwen came to the office holding two magazines and said.

"Your class still receives magazines?"

Zhou Jing took the book.

"I got it from the dormitory. I've seen it."

Yang Wenwen put another book on the boy's desk.

Zhou Jing glanced at Yang Wenwen and smiled, "You look good today."

Yang Wenwen didn't say anything. She picked up a pen and tapped the boy's head. She noticed the novel on the boy's computer screen and asked, "Are you reading an online novel?"

"I wrote this book. If you are interested, you can take a look."

The new book is more serious, so Zhou Jing is not worried that people around him will know about it.

"Really? Let me see, how much is the payment?"

Yang Wenwen wrote down the title of the book and searched for it on her computer.

"I have just started writing and I have not received any payment yet. If the results are good, Teacher Yang will let me be the administrator."
