Chapter 171
Before the morning reading session started, the monitor wanted to discuss something with the students in the class: “Today’s homework should be handed in early. There will be a flag raising ceremony in a little bit. How about we put on sweaters and coats to look uniform?”
During the flag raising ceremony and interclass exercises, all classes were required to wear their uniform, but each class had different dress code requirements for the uniform, making it relatively less strict.
Su Wei lazily raised his hand: “I propose to wear a down jacket uniform. This will make everyone wear black.”
The school decided to design the down jacket with two different colours; pink for girls and black for boys.
To the school’s surprise, most of the girls prefer black over pink. By now, none of the girls wore the pink down jackets. They all wore black.
The monitor hesitated for a moment before asking: “Did everyone bring their down jackets?”
“I didn’t bring it with me,” Someone replied out of class.
Normally, this situation would have caused the class to choose sweaters, but Tong Yan suddenly spoke up: “If you didn’t bring it, borrow one!”
After Tong Yan spoke, the whole class went silent.
There was no doubt that the whole class would wear the down jackets to attend the flag raising ceremony.
Wei Lan leaned toward Tong Yan and asked in a low voice: “Aren’t you the one who hates down jackets the most?”
“She can’t handle the cold.” Tong Yan continued to help Xu Xinduo with her homework and Wei Lan could guess without explaining who the she that Tong Yan mentioned was.
Wei Lan nodded and began to mumble: “If this is not love…”
Just as he was about to head out of the classroom to attend the flag raising ceremony, Director Huang came to find Tong Yan and the others. The director asked them to read a self reflection during the flag raising ceremony.
Tong Yan and the others definitely didn’t want to do it, but Director Huang had a very good attitude. As the saying goes, it was always hard to refuse sincere people. Tong Yan had no choice but to compromise.
The full name of Director Huang was Huang Hua (Hua means a young virgin). God knew what went through her parents’ mind when they named her as such. She was obviously a beautiful blonde with blue eyes. It especially felt awkward now that Director Huang was pregnant. Tong Yan and the others didn’t say anything and prepared honestly.
During the flag raising ceremony, students of the classes stood according to their height. Xu Xinduo stood in the front row of the queue and could clearly see the rostrum.
First, the school leaders gave a speech and then the students who got punished by the school went to the stage to read out the self reflection.
The first person who went up was Yin Shaoshu. After he went up, he shook the paper in his hand, cleared his throat and said, “I’m Yin Shaoshu from grade 10 of senior high school.”
Yin Shaoshu’s voice was a little hoarse and low. His words were underwhelmed: “I was wrong. I shouldn’t have shaken my chair during the exam to disturb Xu’s exam. Disturbing classmate Xu will make Mr. Tong upset. In the end, we had a fight.”
After he read this, the whole school burst into bouts of laughter and their voices were so loud that it did not stop for a long time.
Xu Xinduo who was standing quietly in the queue felt that lots of people were staring at her. She could only pretend to be calm and remain standing.
