Chapter 260: Chapter 190: Sorry, I Just Transferred Schools

Lin Yun felt deeply frustrated and then silently started the car to leave. She reminded herself that she needed to urge her boss to learn to drive early; one can’t afford to fall behind right from the starting line.

However, just past the school’s front parking lane by a dozen meters or so, she glanced and saw, oh, a rather ordinary-looking car among all those nice ones. But the words on it were... Provincial News Broadcast Station?

————————

Inside the school, since classes hadn’t let out yet, most students were in their respective classrooms or corridors. There were fewer outside the classroom buildings, so Sui Yi barely encountered anyone on his way, which allowed him to quietly observe the environment of Yunfeng High School.

After all, it was a century-old prestigious school, which certainly wasn’t lacking in funds. The environment was very nicely arranged and had a deep cultural heritage. It appeared to have been renovated this year; both the greening and the buildings veered towards modern styles. Only the murals on the walls and pillars and the portraits of famous people educated by the school over the past century retained some ancient charm...

Naturally, most of these famous people were unrecognizable to Sui Yi, with only a few he had heard of or read about in books.

Sui Yi wasn’t in a hurry and had never been one to rush, so he leisurely walked through the school, fingers pinching a document folder, strolling past corridors, across plazas...

And into the hall.

Suddenly, someone stopped him!

Being stopped wasn’t surprising, but what was surprising was the forceful question that came without preamble: "Hello, student... why aren’t you wearing your school uniform?"

Fortunately, Sui Yi had a strong sense of composure and wasn’t easily frightened. He paused in his tracks and looked up at the person in front of him...

There were four or five people; the one questioning him was a woman in her twenties, holding an object with a short handle, followed by a man with an even larger object on his shoulder.

The object with the short handle was a microphone, and the larger object was a camera.

This was something Sui Yi understood, which is why he frowned, intending to sidestep them...

But the woman clearly wasn’t going to let him go. She stepped in front of him and, without waiting for him to speak, delivered another question: "Student, student, don’t you think the school uniform is ugly?"

Now that they were confronting him directly, it would be quite impolite to just walk away, so Sui Yi had to stop and replied briefly: "No."

His gaze shifted over the woman’s chest, where there was a badge.

——Xue Rengui?

This name... sounded a bit odd.

It seemed familiar.

Humans are subjective creatures. The first thing they see, the first thing they hear, tends to leave a subjective memory. In a sea of green, most will notice the solitary red flower. Considering Xue Rengui was quite sensitive to who would make for a good interview subject, as soon as her eyes swept the scene, she locked onto one person!

The one who strolled in casually, dressed in plain clothes and quite young, clearly had to be a student.

So she rushed over, intercepting the martial arts-skilled Miss Sui!

However, the answer from the young lady was very brief.

No? What does that mean?

Then the man carrying the camera heard what must have been one of the most nonsensical conversations.

Xue Rengui: "No? You don’t like the uniform?"

Sui Yi: "No uniform."

Xue Rengui: "Ah~~? No worries, so you certainly don’t think the uniform is ugly, right?"

——No uniform, what does that mean? Have you grown to hate the uniforms so much that you’ve thrown them all away?

Sui Yi: "Wouldn’t."

Xue Rengui: "Huh? You think they’re not bad? Pretty?"

——A shocked expression, are there actually students who think the school uniform looks good?

Sui Yi: "Haven’t seen it yet, naturally wouldn’t find it ugly."

Xue Rengui: "Huh? You haven’t seen the uniform? Didn’t you buy it?"

——This kid must really be at the forefront of resisting school uniforms, not even buying one, and yet not expelled!

Sui Yi: "Just transferred, haven’t completed the procedures yet."

Xue Rengui: "..."

——Damn! Fresh out of school, joined a TV station, and the first person I pick for an interview happens to be outside the scope of interviewable subjects!

Pfft!

The camera man burst out laughing! The two people behind him were also torn between laughter and tears, as a middle-aged man stepped forward, "Student, are you here to transfer? You should go register..."

Sui Yi gave this person a look, instinctively feeling that he must be someone like the head of student affairs.

"Okay," she was about to leave.

But Xue Rengui wouldn’t let it go, "Wait a minute, student! Even if you’re a transfer student, you can still express your opinion on this matter. After all, you’ll soon be a student of Yunfeng High School!"

The young lady was too young, yet tenacious, seemingly not giving up. Rather than being entangled, it was better to cut through the mess quickly.

So, Sui Yi, poised as ever, stood there looking at Xue Rengui, who was a bit shorter than her, and coolly threw out a phrase: "Get to the point."

Everyone around fell silent, and Xue Rengui’s breath hitched,

Fuck! Could this transfer student be any more domineering?

Even when I was the gang leader before, I wasn’t this badass, okay!

And she’s fucking taller than me!

Do kids these days all grow up drinking Sanlu or what!

Due to various dissatisfactions with Sui Yi, Xue Rengui’s eyes swiveled, and he blurted out, "Nowadays, many high school students are extremely dissatisfied with the design of school uniforms and firmly resist wearing the current uniforms at colleges. They believe the uniforms are unattractive and monotonous, detrimental to their physical and mental health, and Yunfeng High School is no exception. So, here’s the question, what’s your take on this issue?"

Sui Yi clearly felt those two people who looked like teachers staring intently at her and giving her meaningful looks, while Xue Rengui’s eyes were clearly playful...

She wanted to see how this transfer student would answer the question. If she were to side with the school, other students would mock her, but if she sided with the students, well, the head of academic affairs is right here, you know~~

And Sui Yi’s response was... a counter-question.

"Do I have to give a definitive answer?"

"Yes."

"If I say it’s not good-looking, can I not wear it or modify the uniform?"

Xue Rengui choked, hesitating, "Uh... that depends on the future, on the specific reactions of the students... look..."

"Based on fairness, I need a precise answer."

"!!!...."

"Since it’s not definite, it seems the answer is infinitely close to ’no’. Thus..." Sui Yi lightly tapped her slender leg with the document bag in her hand, making a crisp slap sound.

"There’s no point in answering a meaningless question. I’m sorry, but I must excuse myself."

She nodded to the group, took a long stride with her legs, and turned to leave.

Xue Rengui was left speechless, and the cameraman was also conflicted. Damn it, was this student the principal in disguise? Such a commanding presence!

The head of academic affairs was also in a dilemma, wondering if this impressive transfer student was some kind of hired gun brought in by the principal.

After a long silence, Xue Rengui finally turned to ask the cameraman, "Old Li, don’t tell me you’ve been broadcasting this live the whole time."

The cameraman remained silent.

Xue Rengui immediately howled in despair and lunged to strangle the cameraman...

"Actually, it’s not that bad. It hasn’t been transmitted to the station, just to the school radio as the students requested before. So now..."

Students who had access to multimedia probably all saw it.

At this moment, indeed, a few classrooms within the school were in turmoil.

"Holy shit! This transfer student is awesome!"

"Where, where? I just went to the bathroom and missed it!"

"So damn cool!"

A crowd of students gathered around the multimedia watching, but unfortunately, the live broadcast quality wasn’t the best, so the image was a bit fuzzy. They could only make out that a tall, slim girl was being interviewed, although the sound was fairly clear.

Therefore, the nonsensical dialogue and subsequent question were heard loud and clear by these onlookers.

There were those who called her impressive and awesome, as well as those who said she was cold and domineering... Of course, there were also those who disdained and criticized her actions.

"Reforming the school uniforms is something that all of us students should support. Her ambiguous attitude is clearly because she is scared of the head of academic affairs!"

"It doesn’t seem ambiguous, she basically didn’t answer... more like she directly avoided it."

"I don’t know who she is... right, she’s seems to be a transfer student!"

Transfer students who caused such a stir as soon as they arrived were rare.

Many classmates were already preparing a variety of attitudes, from curiosity to lessons, but one thing was uncertain— which class exactly did she transfer to?

First year, second year, or third year?

Speaking of which, the school had recently experienced some troubles, and expelled a lot of students, which meant a considerable number of new transfers had been coming in these past few days...

This person was one of them, yet she caused the biggest sensation.

Completely unaware of the numerous people thinking of her, Sui Yi directly found the school’s classroom offices. She knocked on the door, went inside, submitted her transfer documents, and then aimed to find the homeroom teacher of her assigned class, all in one go...

At the moment, she was standing before a cultured and tall, thin man, watching as the bespectacled man went through a stack of files in the document bag for a while before finally looking up at her.

"Sui Yi, your grades are decent, but at our school, they’d only be considered mid-tier... Joining us at this point in time might put a lot of pressure on you, since the academic rigor here is much greater than at your previous school. If you encounter any difficulties along the way, make sure to communicate them promptly. Don’t just struggle on your own... and don’t do anything that might affect the class atmosphere. Can you manage that?"

The man’s speech was neither light nor heavy, serving as both a caution and a reminder. Sui Yi nodded, "Mhm."

"All right, from now on you’re a member of Class Three, Grade Three. I am your homeroom teacher, Jhiang Zhixin. Welcome to Class Ten of Grade Three."

--------

After the formally serious introduction with Jhiang Zhixin, he led Sui Yi to collect a new set of textbooks. Fortunately, it was her third year, so there weren’t many books to reissue, and most of them overlapped with those from Nanxun. The rest were unique workbooks for Yunfeng, a thick stack of them. Sui Yi politely declined Jhiang Zhixin’s offer to help and opted to carry them herself as they proceeded towards Class Three of Grade Three.

As they walked, Jhiang Zhixin also briefed her about the school and the class. Yunfeng was a renowned high school, quite large in scale. Over the years, it had grown considerably, and by the third grade level, there were twenty classes. Claiming all to be first-rate was unlikely, but even the lowest ranked amongst them could be considered mid-tier or even above average at any other ordinary high school. (To be continued.
