I relied on my heart to play badly in front of my husband, an officer.

Ever since Bai Youyou decided to take the college entrance examination, she began studying systematically.

Now, apart from attending classes, she no longer walks around and chats with others. She sits in her office and reviews her books.

Because she didn't know what the first college entrance examination would be like, she could only organize the materials on her own and then review systematically.

Her condition puzzled several teachers in the office.

Of course, this also includes Xu Rao, who dislikes her.

During the lunch break that day, Bai Youyou took out the materials she had compiled and wrote over them, muttering to herself as she wrote:

"Your heart is so stubborn it cannot be shaken. It's no better than a widow's weak son. Even if I die, my son will live on. He will have a grandson, and his grandson will have a son. He will have a son, and his son will have a grandson. His descendants will be endless, and the mountains will not grow taller. Why should we not level them?" The wise old man of Hequ died in response.

This is from Yugong Moves Mountains.

Just as she finished reciting the excerpt from Yugong Moves Mountains, Teacher Wang, who had been standing by and listening to her, took a sip of tea and spoke.

"Teacher Bai, what are you doing? Have you learned such a difficult text in your Chinese class yet?

I seem to remember that what you were just reciting was a passage from Yugong Moves Mountains!

You teach so hard, can your students remember it?"

Startled, Bai Youyou snapped out of her concentrated study, looked up at Teacher Wang, and smiled:

"Teacher Wang, don't you take a break at noon?"

"Well, if I don't rest, I'll be old and sleep less in the afternoon, so I won't be able to sleep at night.

Teacher Bai, is the Chinese class progressing so fast in your class? We have even started learning the story of Yugong moving the mountains.

I seem to remember that I didn’t start learning the story of Yugong moving the mountains until after junior high school!

If you let students get in touch with these things now, will they learn them?"

"Oh! These. Teacher Wang, you misunderstood. These are things I just learned when I was bored to kill time. I'm not going to teach them to my students."

"Learn by yourself! Well, this is a good habit. I think you are quite studious, Teacher Bai. This is very good.

You young people are prone to being restless and irritable, so it is a good choice for you to learn more about these ancient literary works.

Not bad, not bad, Teacher Bai, keep working hard, I think you still have a bright future!"

"Hehe, thank you Teacher Wang for your kind words." Bai Youyou felt a little helpless. Listening to Teacher Wang speak, she felt that he sounded so much like the old principal of her previous school, who gave encouraging speeches under the national flag every Monday.

They all have the same leadership style.

You know what, now that I think about it, I actually miss it quite a bit.

"Humph, some people are just phony. They pretend to love studying and make it seem like they really do.

Who doesn’t know who!

If you have the guts to keep pretending, I wonder how long you can keep it up." While Bai Youyou was talking to Teacher Wang, Xu Rao was also making sour remarks in a neither loud nor quiet voice.

After she finished speaking, the air was quiet for a few seconds. Then Teacher Wang smiled at Bai Youyou and returned to his seat.

After all, everyone in the office now knows that the two of them are not getting along, and no one will get involved in their dispute.

When Bai Youyou heard Xu Rao's sarcasm, she just glanced at her indifferently without responding and continued to read.

She knew in her heart that it was pointless to argue with Xu Rao, and it would be better to focus on studying.

However, Xu Rao thought Bai Youyou was too guilty to reply, so she intensified her anger.

I've always said that some people are just hypocrites, pretending to be serious all day long and making people feel disgusted."

After saying that, Xu Rao deliberately walked to Bai Youyou and bumped into her desk.

The pen in Bai Youyou's hand drew a long mark on the paper.

Looking at the long marks, Bai Youyou suppressed the anger in her heart, took a deep breath, and slowly stood up.

"Xu Rao, I don't want to quarrel with you today.

Could you please stop bothering me?

I don't think I need to explain to you what I want to do.

We are all teachers. Instead of wasting time attacking each other, we should improve ourselves.

Is that okay, Mr. Xu?"

Xu Rao's face turned red and white, and she was about to retort when the dean walked into the office.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he frowned and asked, "Why are you two here again? What are you two going to do?

Why is it that every time I come to your office, I always see you two arguing?

The office is a place for work and study, not a place for conflicts.

Do you two really think I'm easy to talk to, or do you think I didn't punish you?

That's why you are so unscrupulous and don't care about your dignity as a teacher. It's not decent for you to quarrel over such a trivial matter in a school where we teach and educate students.

Ah! Speak, you are all mute now.

I tell you two, I won’t let you off so easily this time.

"Come and tell me now, both of you, what's the quarrel about this time? Tell me!" The director became more and more angry, and finally shouted loudly.

It was the first time that Bai Youyou saw the director so angry. Seeing his angry look, she was the first to speak:

"Director, it's my fault. I shouldn't have caused disputes and affected the office atmosphere. I'm sorry, and I will correct it.

Please give me another chance, Director. I promise I will never do such a thing in the office again."

Although Bai Youyou said this on the surface, what she was thinking in her heart was: "Oh, what bad luck! I said I didn't want to argue today! I didn't expect it to turn out like this.

It seems that if I want to deal with Xu Rao next time, I have to lure her outside."

Xu Rao didn't expect Bai Youyou to admit her mistake first, and was stunned for a moment.

The director looked at Bai Youyou, who was the first to admit her mistake, and his expression softened a little: "Teacher Bai, it's good that you can recognize your mistake. In the future, you can't quarrel in the office anymore. This is disgraceful, don't you think?

But it's definitely not just your problem." After he finished speaking, he glanced at Xu Rao.

Seeing this, Xu Rao hesitated and said:

"Director, I...I just can't stand her always pretending to be a good student. I lost my mind for a moment, so I started arguing with Teacher Bai.

Director, I'm really sorry, I was wrong." As Xu Rao spoke, she began to act a wronged and pitiful look, lowering her head.

After seeing this, the director sighed and looked at Xu Rao seriously: "Alas, Teacher Xu, everyone has the right to pursue progress. You can't target your colleagues just because of your own prejudice.

There is nothing wrong with Teacher Bai studying hard. If you all focus on improving your teaching abilities, you won't have time to argue.

You are all comrades in the same office. What grudges do you two have against each other? You can solve it privately. There is really no need to stir up disputes in the office.

This affects the other teachers in the office! Besides, your noise affects their rest time. Just because you don’t rest doesn’t mean they don’t rest! "

Xu Rao lowered her head, her face filled with shame. "Yes, Director, you are right."

Although Xu Rao said this, her lowered head concealed the viciousness and calculation in her eyes.

The director continued, "Since you two have actively admitted your mistakes, I will not punish you this time.

But I hope this is the last time I see you two like this. If I find out again, I won’t let it go so easily.

If it happens again next time, both of you will pack up your things and go home. Our school doesn't need people who are always causing trouble. Do you understand?

"Okay, you two take a break!" He turned and left the office.

But after he walked downstairs, he remembered what he was going to do in the office.

"Ah, my brain has really been confused by those two girls.

I even forgot what I was supposed to do in the office." After saying that, he turned around and glanced at the stairs. "Well, I have to climb them again."

When he climbed up to the fourth floor breathlessly and stood at the stairs to rest, he met Hao Jiajia who was also coming up from downstairs.

"Hey, Director, why are you standing here? Why don't you come into the office? Is there something wrong?"

The director took a breath and said, "Don't mention it. I just came up to deal with the quarrel between Teacher Bai and Teacher Xu, and ended up forgetting the important matter.

Let's go! Let's go into the office together. I have something to tell you."

Hao Jiajia smiled and said, "Okay, Director, you go ahead."

In the office here, as soon as the director left, Xu Rao took advantage of the time when Bai Youyou went out to get some water and quietly opened the documents she had sorted out.

Seeing the densely packed notes, I felt even more jealous.

After returning from fetching water, Bai Youyou saw Xu Rao touching her things. She was about to get angry, but she remembered the director's warning and held back. She only said coldly, "Teacher Xu, please respect yourself and return to your seat."

Xu Rao glared at her, snorted, and went back to her seat.

Xu Rao sat back in his seat and kept thinking about how to deal with Bai Youyou.

Suddenly she thought of a solution. Just because she couldn't do it to her, it didn't mean others couldn't do it to her.

She could find a few naughty students in Bai Youyou's class, secretly say bad things about Bai Youyou to them, instigate them to make trouble in Bai Youyou's class, and play pranks on Bai Youyou.

This way, I can see Bai Youyou's miserable appearance without having to do anything myself. Why not do it?

As he thought about it, he chuckled.

Just when she was happy, the director came back.
