Meng Yan's Transformation

Zhan Mengyan's reading voice is as smooth as silk, melodious and deep. Every word seems to wander in delicate emotions. The reading voice is like a mountain spring, gentle and peaceful. The voice is like the sound of nature, which makes people intoxicated...

When Zhan Mengyan finished reading "My Crystal Palace", there was silence in the classroom, followed by warm applause...

During the break between evening self-study classes, the students were still discussing "My Crystal Palace" in private.

"You're talking about Zhan Mengyan, who is usually quiet and dull, a dull beauty with good looks but no talent. How could she write an essay like 'My Crystal Palace'?"

"You can't judge a person by his appearance, and you can't measure the depth of the ocean by a bucket. You can't just look at the surface phenomenon, you have to look at the essence of things."

"I think Zhan Mengyan is weird. She appears and disappears every day. No one knows where she lives at night. Now I know that she lives in the 'Crystal Palace'. Who is close to her? I really want to see her 'Crystal Palace'. I don't believe there is such a 'Crystal Palace'. Could it be that she just imagined it?"

"Try to imagine a 'Crystal Palace' for me, and let Teacher Liu Zhen give you a good review..."

"Shut up, be careful not to let her hear you. She might be a little witch. If you see her, she'll be standing behind you, staring at you..."

"Ah ah ah..."

One of the students turned his head and tripped over something, falling flat on his face, causing everyone to laugh.

"Zhan Mengyan, is your little house really that beautiful? Can you take me to see your 'Crystal Palace'?"

Zhan Mengyan's deskmate Dong Hanmei looked at Zhan Mengyan with infinite longing eyes while speaking.

"Look at how skinny you are. I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it in my 'Crystal Palace'. When you get fatter and have more body fat, I'll take you to my 'Crystal Palace'..."

"Lingling..." The bell for class rang...

The students on the playground walked into the classroom one after another. When they walked into the classroom, some students subconsciously looked at Zhan Mengyan and her deskmate Dong Hanmei who were discussing something in their seats.

The classroom quickly returned to silence.

The students were fully focused on their studies, their pens flying on the paper and their thoughts wandering in the sea of ​​books. Occasionally, one could hear the rustling sound of their calculations on paper.

As night falls, the dim lights illuminate the determined faces of the students.

The supervising teacher became a knowledge navigator, patiently listened to the students' humble questions, answered difficult questions, led the students to travel in the ocean of learning, encouraged the students to think continuously, and let the fireworks of wisdom burn in their minds...

Suddenly, a scream of "Ah" broke this wonderful learning atmosphere..."

"Qu Yanmei, the students are all in class, why are you shouting?"

As the squad leader spoke, he glared at Qu Yanmei who was exclaiming.

Qu Yanmei's seat was right next to the classroom window, through which she could see the scenery on the playground.

"Captain, I...I...I saw a distorted face on the window!"

Qu Yanmei's face was pale as she spoke, obviously she was overly frightened.

"Let me see, is there any human face there?"

While the monitor was speaking, he stood beside Qu Yanmei's seat and looked out the window. He only saw the willow trees around the playground swaying in the wind like dark shadows...

"Students, some people may suddenly see a face outside the window while doing homework at night. At first, they think it is their own face, but when they look closely, they find that it is a moving smiling face. This experience makes people feel creepy. From a physiological reaction point of view, the visual processing method of the eyes and brain may also cause this illusion. The patterns and light and shadow changes on the window will be interpreted by the brain as the image of a face under certain angles and lighting conditions. This phenomenon is called 'illusion of face vision'. Qu Yanmei, please stop looking at the window glass, or change seats with classmates who are far away from the window...

While the supervising teacher was speaking, he stood on the podium and looked at Qu Yanmei, who was still in shock.

"Teacher, I really saw a distorted face stuck to the window glass, not a 'pareidolia' optical illusion..."

As Qu Yanmei spoke, her body trembled as she looked at the supervising teacher.

"Teacher, look quickly..."

When Qu Yanmei's deskmate Liu Huanhuan spoke, she stared with big frightened eyes and pointed out the window.

I saw a red and black twisted face pressed against the window glass, with deformed facial features, one eyeball bulging out as if it was about to fall out of its socket, the other eye sunken like a black hole, the nose was squeezed almost collapsed, and the mouth was split open like a horseshoe, like a demon crawling out of hell...

The eyes of the face pasted on the window stared at everyone in the classroom, as if looking for something...

The cold gaze seemed to penetrate everyone's heart. Some female students were so scared that they burst into tears, while others covered their faces with their hands and trembled into a ball...

Zhan Mengyan also looked at the face on the window. When the three of them looked at each other, they concentrated for a moment, and then the face on the window glass let out a sinister laugh...

Zhan Mengyan ran out of the classroom quickly and tore the face off the window glass.

"Second cousin Daven, why are you here at school again? You leaned on the window to look, and scared our female classmates to tears! Go home quickly, and you are not allowed to pick me up at school anymore!"

When Zhan Mengyan was talking, she pushed Yun Dawen angrily. Yun Dawen tried to hold Zhan Mengyan with his disabled hands.

"Cousin Mengyan, I want to see how you study. Don't chase me away. I want to wait for you to finish your evening study and go home together..."

Yundawen looked pleading as he spoke.

"Student Zhan Mengyan, don't be afraid, we are here to help you!"

While the class monitor Liu Ziqi was speaking, he and several male classmates rushed towards Yun Dawen, and they started punching and kicking Yun Dawen without any explanation.

"Stop it right there! He's my second cousin, why are you hitting him?"

Zhan Mengyan roared, pushed away the squad leader and several others, and used her body to protect Yun Dawen.

"I... I saw you rushing out of the classroom, and I thought you were going out to do something righteous and drive away the bad guys. Then I saw you two arguing with each other, and I was afraid that you would get hurt, so I attacked you. We didn't know that he was the cousin of your classmate Zhan Mengyan... It was an unintentional mistake...

As squad leader Liu Ziqi spoke, he looked at Zhan Mengyan with guilt.

"I rushed out of the classroom without asking for leave because I was afraid that my cousin would scare the classmates and asked him to leave quickly. Just because he is ugly, he becomes a bad person? My cousin looks ugly, but his soul is as rich as ours, and his heart is as full as ours. How could he be labeled a bad person by the class monitor?"

Zhan Mengyan spoke in an aggressive tone.

"Student Zhan Mengyan, I apologize to you. I just slipped my tongue and said the wrong thing. I shouldn't have mistaken your second cousin as a bad person."

When squad leader Liu Ziqi spoke, he felt ashamed and embarrassed.

"Class monitor, you shouldn't apologize to me. The person you hit wasn't me, but my second cousin. It was my second cousin who was injured, and you should apologize to him!"

When Zhan Mengyan spoke, her face was livid and she looked angry.

"Forget it, cousin Mengyan. Don't ask your classmates to apologize. Your classmates are just trying to help you out of kindness. They definitely don't know that I'm your cousin. I look so ugly that anyone who sees me would think I'm a bad guy. As the saying goes, 'Ignorance is not blame'. Go back to class. I'll be waiting for you at the school gate. Let's go home together after school."

As Yundawen spoke, he touched his face, which was red, swollen, hot and painful.

"No, you must apologize! You can't be beaten for no reason..."

As Zhan Mengyan spoke, she looked at Yun Dawen with heartache.

"Second cousin, we were wrong. We wanted to help but ended up doing more harm than good. Please forgive our impulsive mistakes!"

While speaking, squad leader Liu Ziqi bowed deeply to Yun Daqing.

“It’s okay, it’s okay, you all go back to class. You are all good kids who are brave enough to do what is right, and you are good classmates who are loyal to Zhan Mengyan. You are not afraid of a bad guy like me, and you rush forward bravely. None of you are cowards...hahahaha..."

As Yundawen spoke, he teased himself and looked nonchalant.

Squad leader Liu Ziqi felt even more ashamed after hearing Yun Dawen's words.

"Second cousin, you are already very generous by not blaming us, but why did you even praise us? You are making us feel so embarrassed! We are so ashamed..."
