Song He looked melancholy, which puzzled Ding Ruola.
Was it really that troublesome just to check the test papers?
"Of course, I think I have the right to know the truth."
Stubbornness was written all over Ding Ruola's face. Seeing that he couldn't talk her out of it, Song He casually said, "Do as you like. Go and check!"
After coming back from Song He, Ding Ruola had never checked test papers before. She asked her classmates, but they all gave the same answer. She took out her phone and asked Baidu. The most common answer was: For school - related information, please check the school's campus network.
Ding Ruola browsed the school's website for a while. She almost read the enrollment brochure again.
She found nothing. There was none of the things she wanted.
If she went straight to Fang Siyan to ask now, wouldn't it expose the fact that she had failed this exam? So, of course, she said nothing to Fang Siyan.
Ding Ruola was now left in the cold. She even contacted her former substitute teacher.
The answer from her teacher was the same as Song He's.
Why did they keep stopping her from checking the test papers?
At mealtime, Mei Xuejian learned about Ding Ruola's situation. The two of them made an appointment to go out for dinner and think about a counter - measure.
There weren't many people in the restaurant outside. The two of them sat down and casually ordered a few dishes.
Ding Ruola was in no mood, so she let Mei Xuejian order.
When the food was served, all the dishes on the table were Ding Ruola's favorites.
"Xuejian, why do the teachers keep stopping me from checking the test papers?"
Mei Xuejian didn't say a word. He lowered his head and carefully poured a drink for Ding Ruola.
Seeing that Mei Xuejian didn't answer, Ding Ruola ate two mouthfuls of rice glumly.
She glared at Mei Xuejian, and only then did the boy in front of her start to speak!
"The teachers must have their reasons for not allowing the check."
That was nonsense! Ding Ruola thought Mei Xuejian would come up with some constructive suggestions.
This exam was extraordinary. If she came in last this time, she would be transferred to an ordinary class. In that case, all her previous efforts would be in vain.
She put down her chopsticks and looked at Mei Xuejian, who was eating heartily. She had to change the topic to make herself feel better.
"Xuejian, how's the wedding dress design going?"
When it came to the matter of the studio, Mei Xuejian immediately put down his chopsticks and started discussing with Ding Ruola.
The others in the studio unanimously thought that the Tang - style wedding could be implemented. There would be thirteen pieces of auspicious wedding clothes, which would look grand and lively with layers upon layers.
There were no problems with the wedding dress and the etiquette, but they had overlooked one thing. How could the bride escape the wedding in a thirteen - layer dress? Not to mention escaping, it would be inconvenient for her to even enter the venue at the beginning.
Ding Ruola was already worried enough, but then an annoying person came to provoke her.
The two of them hadn't talked for long when a girl, Su Man, sat down beside Mei Xuejian.
Presumably, she had followed Mei Xuejian here.
Mei Xuejian's relaxed brows instantly knitted together. He deliberately moved inside.
"Miss Su, I've already said that it's about free love. You'd better not take your parents' ideas too seriously."
Su Man glanced at Mei Xuejian. She could tell that Mei Xuejian was impatient with her.
She couldn't understand what was wrong with her. Why did Mei Xuejian treat her like this when she was clearly better than Ding Ruola in every way?
"Brother Xuejian, I'm better than her in terms of management ability. In terms of looks, I'm no worse. In terms of..."
Mei Xuejian was getting impatient. "You're better than Ding Ruola in every way, but you're not her. That alone is enough."
Su Man's face darkened. She never thought Mei Xuejian would give such an answer.
She was just trying to meet her parents' requirements and trying to be liked by the elders and others.
"Ding Ruola!"
Ding Ruola, who had been watching the show on the side, was suddenly called by Su Man. She looked up and saw Su Man's angry face. She could more or less guess what the girl in front of her was going to say.
She must be going to humiliate Ding Ruola with the fact that she had scored 100 points!
Sure enough, Su Man said it with a haughty look on her face.
Su Man was like a child who couldn't get the toy she wanted. She could only show off in front of her opponent and then leave.
"Aren't you being too cruel?"
Ding Ruola didn't understand why Mei Xuejian was treating Su Man like this.
Mei Xuejian picked up a piece of meat and put it in Ding Ruola's bowl. He forced a smile and finally said with difficulty, "If I can't give her what she wants, I'd better let her give up from the very beginning."
Ding Ruola's chopsticks paused for a moment as she was about to pick up the meat. Absent - mindedly, the chopsticks fell to the ground. She hurriedly picked them up and had no intention of continuing to eat.
"That's it. I'll go and ask Ningshen. I think Ningshen will know."
Mei Xuejian watched Ding Ruola's actions. Presumably, she had understood what he said.
The boy smiled, paid the bill simply, and took Ding Ruola back to school.
"I'll go back to the studio first. Don't just focus on your studies and forget about work."
Ding Ruola smiled awkwardly. After watching Mei Xuejian leave, she sent a message to Ningshen.
[What's the process for checking test papers in your school?]
After sending the message, she realized that it wasn't a good time. Ningshen should still be sleeping at this time.
Unexpectedly, Ningshen replied instantly as usual.
[Check the file I sent you later. Did you run into any trouble at school?]
Ding Ruola needed someone to pour out her heart to, and Ningshen was that person.
She told Ningshen all her experiences during this period in detail.
The other side was silent for about half an hour. [Ningshen: Believe in yourself and keep checking.]
Ding Ruola took a look at the file. This time, instead of going to Song He directly, she went straight to the teaching affairs office of the School of Economics and Management. When the teaching affairs office heard that Ding Ruola wanted to check the test papers,
They asked the same question as Song He and then gave Ding Ruola a form.
Ding Ruola stood outside the teaching affairs office to fill out the form. When she got to the bottom, she saw a line that said - Signature of the tutor.
She still needed Song He's signature. Ding Ruola felt that her future was bleak.
Song He should be in the office at this time. Coincidentally, Fang Siyan didn't have classes today, so she wouldn't run into him.
When she came to the office of the teachers in the School of Economics and Management, she habitually glanced at Fang Siyan's desk and then walked up to Song He with the form.
"Teacher, please sign it."
"You girl, why are you so stubborn?"
The moment Song He saw the form, he got so angry that his face and neck turned red.
He rummaged through his messy desk and finally found a pen, but it was out of ink.
"Pen!"
Ding Ruola slowly took out a signature pen from her pocket and handed it to Song He.
"You may regret this!"
Even at this moment, Song He didn't forget to "remind" Ding Ruola.
Although these reminders sounded more like threats.
"I still advise you not to check."
Song He didn't want to hand the form to Ding Ruola. He pressed the paper under his arm and was about to say a few more words to Ding Ruola.
"Teacher, I just want to see my test paper. I think you also want to know the truth."
