The intern taught a top-performing class, and the parents wanted to change the homeroom teacher.

Seeing Li Kewei's dazed expression, Lu Qian asked in surprise, "You don't like spicy strips?"

Li Kewei subconsciously replied, "It's alright."

Lu Qian ate another piece and said slowly, "Only after you've eaten can you say what's in your stomach."

Li Kewei remained silent for a moment, then his expression turned as if he were ready to take the plunge.

"Teacher Lu, Li Jun said you are a different kind of teacher, and I believe him."

"Well, I met a girl the other day, and I thought she was pretty special, so I'd like to get to know her..."

Lu Qian almost choked on those words, and quickly took two sips of Fanta to soothe himself.

Immediately afterward, his gossipy nature began to burn brightly.

"Quite unique, huh? Want to get to know her?"

Having already said what he wanted to say, Li Kewei relaxed considerably, though his expression remained somewhat awkward.

"It's really just about getting to know each other."

"Teacher, could you please help me find her?"

Lu Qian was taken aback. "Found her? You didn't go and say hello?"

Li Kewei: "No."

Lu Qian: "What should I call you?"

Li Kewei: "I don't know."

Lu Qian: "You must know which school it is, right?"

Li Kewei scratched his head. "I don't know either."

Lu Qian: "???"

"What exactly happened?"

Li Kewei coughed lightly, looking somewhat shy.

"Just a few days ago, on my way home from school, I saw an old man riding a tricycle uphill. He couldn't get up the hill several times, so I helped him push it up from behind."

However, the wheels hit a pothole, and the tricycle wobbled, causing a few bottles to fall off. I helped pick them up, and then the girl who was passing by also helped pick them up.

"At that moment, I suddenly felt that she was very special. It was a feeling I couldn't quite put my finger on," Li Kewei said earnestly.

Upon hearing this, Lu Qian looked at him with a hint of admiration.

"That's good, Li Kewei. Helpful, a good kid."

Academic performance is important, but in Lu Qian's eyes, a person's character is even more important.

Li Kewei scratched his head; he hadn't expected Teacher Lu to praise him for this.

"It's just something I did on the spur of the moment."

Lu Qian nodded slightly. "Let's get back to the matter of that girl."

"Based on your description, you felt that girl was special, that you were a little attracted to her, or more broadly, that it was the beginning of puppy love."

"In principle, I do not support students dating early, and schools will not support it either."

Hearing Lu Qian say this, Li Kewei felt a little dejected. He had already prepared himself for this, after all, what teacher would help students fall in love too early?

It's good enough that he's not criticized.

"Then, Teacher Lu, I'll head back now." With that, Li Kewei got up to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Lu Qian suddenly spoke up, "In principle, I do not support puppy love, but I do support communication and learning."

Li Kewei was taken aback. "What do you mean?"

"It means exactly what it says." Lu Qian stood up, brushing the dust off his pants. "Li Kewei, do you know who has the most privileges at school?"

"Um... Principal?" Li Kewei asked hesitantly.

"You're a good student," Lu Qian said calmly. "As long as you're good at your studies, you can get the green light for almost anything, as long as you don't violate school rules. In fact, when your grades are good enough, you can even break the rules."

"If your grades are bad, you'll be timid and hesitant at school; if your grades are good, you can do whatever you want at school."

"If you don't do well in school, it's called puppy love; if you do well, it's called exchanging learning experiences."

Li Kewei stared blankly at him. His grades were at the bottom of the grade, but that didn't mean he was stupid. He could communicate normally and understand what others were saying.

Everyone's IQ is about the same.

He just didn't like studying, so he never experienced the privilege that came with good grades.

Thinking back carefully, those students who were in the top ten of their grade were always kind and friendly to the principal or the headmaster, and even the cafeteria ladies would give them extra scoops of meat.

As for whether he had any other privileges, that was something a student with poor grades like him wouldn't know.

"Teacher Lu, do you mean I should study hard and then use the guise of exchanging ideas to get closer to her?"

Lu Qian nodded and said, "That's one way to understand it. It's the most suitable method I can think of."

"Of course, you can choose to give up, but doing so would just prove that you're not that interested. After you leave here, no third person will know what happened here."

The choice is yours.

Li Kewei recalled their encounter that night: under the streetlights, the girl bent down to pick up a bottle, revealing a sweet smile.

"Teacher, I want to learn!"

Lu Qian's lips curled up slightly. "Okay."

Hooked.

"But Teacher Lu, if I start studying, won't I become depressed?" Li Kewei asked.

Lu Qian looked surprised. "I've wanted to ask this for a while now. Where did you hear that from?"

Li Kewei shrugged. "I saw it online. Besides, my relative's child is a good student, but he doesn't seem happy at all."

Lu Qian patted him on the shoulder, "We're different. Once you learn how to study, you'll know how joyful learning can be."

"There's one more thing. You didn't provide enough information about that girl, making it a bit difficult to find her. But if you improve your grades, at least you'll have more confidence when you face her."

……

Back in class, let's begin this week's quiz.

When Xi Wenjing received the math test paper, she didn't answer the questions immediately, but instead quickly began to browse through the paper.

She was first in her class, but ranked 232nd in the entire grade in the last monthly exam.

With a stable score of 135 or above in Chinese and 145 or above in English, chemistry and biology scores won't be too much of a drag if you strengthen your memorization.

She was completely helpless when it came to math and physics.

The classes were like listening to gibberish; she only managed to get 60 or 70 points because she did a lot of practice problems.

It wasn't until Lu Qian took over Class 25 that her unique teaching style gave her a sense of enlightenment during class.

Knowledge entered her mind in a magical way.

After reading the exam paper, Xi Wenjing felt a surge of joy.

Although I haven't done the problem yet, just by glancing at it, the solution came to mind.

If she can maintain this level of performance, she feels she can make it into the top 100 in her grade!

There are quite a few students who share this idea.

Mathematics has always been about this: if you know it, you know it; if you don't, you don't. There's no way to fake it.

But after listening to math classes for the past two weeks...

Those students who were good at some subjects but not others found themselves miraculously able to understand every math class.

After the test papers were handed out, the classroom was so quiet that only the sound of answering the questions could be heard.

Li Kewei looked at the papers and felt a sense of difficulty.

He hadn't been paying attention in class and didn't understand any of the questions.

But remembering what Teacher Lu had just said, he gritted his teeth and wrote down everything he could.

……

After class, the class representative started collecting the papers.

Xi Wenjing closed the pen cap, a satisfied smile on her face.

"Wenjing, how did you feel about the questions?" asked Yang Xueting, her deskmate.

"It's amazing, you can do them all!" Xi Wenjing said with a smile.

"Me too, I wrote it all down, but I don't know if it's correct." Yang Xueting was a little surprised, but also a little nervous.

Her grades were mediocre, even below average.

If she continues with her usual grades and performance, she'll barely get into a junior college, let alone a bachelor's degree.

But since Ms. Lu took over the class, she has clearly felt that her learning has improved a lot.

"The test only covers the points that Teacher Lu has covered. As long as you listen carefully in class, these questions will be no problem," Xie Tianming, who sat behind me, interjected. "I'm confident I'll get a perfect score this time! I've been envious of Teacher Lu's flower-cutting technique for so long. If I get a perfect score this time, Teacher Lu will definitely teach me!"

The students around them were chatting happily.

Xi Wenjing is now unusually calm.

She knows how bad she is; her ranking first in the class is entirely due to the contrast with her classmates.

If you lack talent, you can make up for it with hard work.

My current grades are all the result of extensive memorization, and my logical thinking skills in mathematics are also gradually improving under Mr. Lu's guidance.

Teacher Lu is amazing!

I have everything I need now!
