My Inner Thoughts Are Heard by the Entire Noble Academy

Chapter 14

The class monitor's father only asked for half a day off; they had to return to class in the afternoon and rush to the next venue.

In front of the cemetery, Wei Yi called out to Shi Li, "Lili, I've booked a private room at Jinyuan Dream. You and the class monitor should take the classmates there for lunch. Thank you all for running around these past few days. I have to eat with my family later, so I can't accompany everyone. Please understand."

Everyone told Wei Yi to take care of his own business, saying they would be fine on their own.

During lunch, all the classmates were scolded by phone calls from their families.

When they returned to school in the afternoon, they stood in the classroom and were scolded by the teacher.

During the break, the class monitor's father had his secretary deliver milk tea, impressively boosting his son's popularity among his classmates.

Along with the milk tea, the secretary also brought some small jewelry pieces from luxury brands.

The class monitor was responsible for giving small gifts to the teachers during breaks, apologizing for skipping class without permission in the morning.

Shi Li was the physics class representative, so she accompanied the class monitor when he went to see the physics teacher.

Teacher Wu was sipping tea while looking at some test papers. Seeing his class representative and the monitor of class one approach, he pulled out two test papers from his drawer. "Complete these papers. I'll time you."

Shi Li took the paper and guessed the reason Teacher Wu wanted her to do this test after just glancing at it.

It was to select the school's representatives for the Four Holy Grail Physics Competition, with two students chosen from each grade.

In her previous life, Shi Li had participated in this competition alongside a boy from Feng Yunhe's class.

That boy came from a poor family but was exceptionally academically gifted.

He had been specially recruited into Qianpu Middle School based on his grades. For students like him, the school provided a lot of support in terms of tuition and scholarships.

By participating in various competitions and consistently achieving excellent results, that boy had secured early admission to a top domestic university in his second year of high school.

Having participated in numerous competitions together, Shi Li had a good relationship with him.

The competition questions were much harder than regular test papers. This didn't affect Shi Li much, but it was a different story for the class monitor.

Teacher Wu's phone rang, signaling the end of the allotted time.

The class monitor still had three major questions left unanswered, while Shi Li had stopped writing half an hour ago. Teacher Wu had already finished grading Shi Li's paper and given her a score.

The class monitor glanced over and saw that Shi Li had only lost two points due to a miscalculation.

The student looked utterly dejected, and Teacher Wu consoled him, "Relax a bit. Shi Li is a little genius; you can't compare yourself to her."

[Hmph]

After grading the class monitor's paper, Teacher Wu smiled with some satisfaction, "You did pretty well too. You passed the qualifying line."

"You have a lot of potential. When you encounter difficult problems, ask Shi Li for help."

Teacher Wu then said to Shi Li, "Go get the competition application form from the director."

He only gave this one instruction to Shi Li, without even mentioning any exam details, before hurrying the two of them out.

Although he wasn't selected, the class monitor maintained a calm attitude. His physics performance was quite good, but it paled in comparison to Shi Li's.

If he hadn't come to Teacher Wu's office with Shi Li today, he probably wouldn't have even had the chance to take this test.

After leaving the physics teacher's office, the class monitor's hands were empty, while Shi Li was carrying a stack of test papers.

Not wanting to let a girl carry things, the class monitor offered, "Let me carry that. It looks heavy."

Shi Li gave him a rare glance. [The class monitor's ability to lie with a straight face rivals his father's.]

If it were a stack of exercise books, it would indeed be heavy.

But how heavy could thirty sheets of test paper be?

Class monitor: I can hear your snarky comments, you know. And if you're saying I'm like my dad, I might just throw a little tantrum.

Although Shi Li was internally snarking, she still accepted the class monitor's kind gesture.

"Thank you. You're such a nice person."

One second he had heard her snarky comment, the next he was being handed a "nice guy" card.

The class monitor couldn't help but think to himself, "A woman's heart is as unfathomable as the ocean."

Shi Li and the class monitor arrived outside the grade director's office, just in time to meet Shen Qinglin, who was also there to get an application form.

Shi Li greeted him, and the class monitor voluntarily said, "You two go in. I'll wait for you outside."

Shi Li knocked twice on the door, and after hearing a "Come in" from inside, she pushed the door open.

Upon entering the director's office, Shen Qinglin maintained a calm expression, while Shi Li was slightly taken aback when she clearly saw the man and woman sitting opposite the director.

[So the female lead came this early]

Standing outside the door, the class monitor heard the sudden comment and felt confused. What female lead? Shi Li was saying strange things. She went in to ask the director for an application form; what did that have to do with a female lead?

The two people sitting opposite the director were Feng Yunhe's father and the female lead, Liang Rongrong.

Startled by Shi Li's abrupt door opening, Liang Rongrong's small, palm-sized face showed an expression of fear.

"Do you need something from me?" the director asked.

Shi Li had a mediocre impression of this corpulent grade director. She got straight to the point, "We're here to get the application forms for the Four Holy Grail Physics Competition."

The competition application forms were right there on the director's desk; he could have simply handed them over.

Instead, he rambled on with a lot of nonsense, "You're representing the school in this competition. You should be grateful for the opportunity the school is giving you, especially you, Shen Qinglin."

Shi Li rolled her eyes dramatically, unwilling to listen to his blood pressure-raising talk.

She interrupted him directly, "Director, we earned this opportunity to participate in the physics competition through selection. If we win awards in the competition, it will also bring honor to the school."

The grade director liked to judge people based on their status. When dealing with children from wealthy families, he wouldn't get angry even if they talked back to him, and would instead praise them, saying things like "What a sweet-talking child."

But for students who were specially recruited, no matter how excellent their grades were, he always found fault and expressed dissatisfaction.

Despite being rebutted by Shi Li, the grade director showed no signs of annoyance on his face. "Yes, yes, you're right," he said, handing the application forms to Shi Li.

As they were leaving the office, Shi Li vaguely heard Liang Rongrong seemingly asking about the physics competition.

After exiting the office, Shi Li said to Shen Qinglin, "He's got issues in his head. It's not something new. Just ignore him."

The class monitor's mind worked quickly, immediately guessing what was going on. He also said, "That's just the kind of person he is. It's beneath you to stoop to his level."

Shen Qinglin's lips curved into a smile, revealing two subtle dimples. "I know. Thank you both."

Before parting ways with Shen Qinglin, Shi Li exchanged contact information with him. "We'll be participating in competitions together in the future. If you encounter any problems, feel free to reach out."

When the two returned to the classroom, it was nearly time for school to end.

The class monitor, holding the physics test paper he had just retrieved, switched seats with Shi Li's desk mate.

He had encountered many questions earlier and wanted to discuss them with Shi Li.

As the dismissal bell rang, Shi Li still had a few problems left to explain.

"School's out. You should head home first. We can go over these questions tomorrow."

"It's fine. It'll only take a few more minutes. I'll explain these problems clearly, so you can practice a few more questions at home to reinforce what you've learned."

"But I need to call my driver first." He wanted to let the driver know he'd be out a bit later to prevent any worry.

The class monitor was quite intelligent. Some problems clicked for him instantly, and they finished in just ten minutes.

As the two walked out of the classroom, they were still discussing the problems.

They ran into a boy and a girl coming from the opposite direction, causing the class monitor to suddenly lose his ability to speak. He instinctively turned his gaze towards Shi Li.

Everyone knew that Shi Li had a crush on Feng Yunhe, and it had reached an obsessive level.

Feng Yunhe walking out of the principal's office with a girl seemed rather suspicious no matter how you looked at it.

Thanks to hearing Shi Li's inner thoughts these past few days, the class monitor's imagination was running wild.

He couldn't help but wonder if these two were staying after school to date in the classroom.

But this girl looked unfamiliar.

Recalling a certain day's ear-splitting experience, if it were that kind of situation, the entire class's ears might be in jeopardy.

Feng Yunhe, aren't your grades supposed to be excellent? To maintain those good grades, I suggest you refrain from dating during high school.

For the sake of our entire class's ears.

The class monitor's thoughts ran wild like a galloping alpaca, racing towards the sea with no return...

While the class monitor didn't know who this girl was, Shi Li did.

[Come to think of it, it makes sense. The plot starts from this moment.]

Class monitor: Plot? What plot? The plot of their love story?
