Chapter 766: Chapter 766: Returning to One’s Ancestral Roots (22)_1

When Qi Weixin entered the classroom, it was Gu Zichen’s English class. Gu Zichen was beautiful and spoke gently. Today, instead of having Xiu Xi and Ruan Jiaojiao converse, she was the one leading the dialogue. When it was Ruan Jiaojiao’s turn, Qi Weixin stood at the classroom door and called out for permission to speak.

All eyes turned to look at her, and Ruan Jiaojiao, who was reading at that moment, also looked over.

In just two days, Qi Weixin seemed like a different person. She remembered that at the beginning of the school term, she had been lively and sunny, tossing her hair while she spoke, exuding the vitality and vigor unique to her age.

But now, her face was pale, she seemed to have lost weight, and her ear was bandaged. Her gaze brushed over Ruan Jiaojiao, carrying a chill that didn’t belong to someone of her age.

She didn’t linger long, as if merely glancing casually before withdrawing her gaze.

"Qi Weixin, are you feeling better? Do you need to rest at home for a bit longer?" Gu Zichen saw that Qi Weixin’s complexion was off and had heard about her recent troubles from other teachers, so she asked with concern.

"No need," Qi Weixin replied indifferently.

"Alright then, go back to your seat," Gu Zichen said with a hint of resignation, pursing her lips, then instructed Ruan Jiaojiao to continue reading the dialogue.

Ruan Jiaojiao shifted her attention away from Qi Weixin, focused her mind, and continued reading the dialogue. The class period passed by quickly.

After the English class ended, Gu Zichen first went to check on Qi Weixin briefly before approaching Ruan Jiaojiao. She leaned on Xiu Xi’s desk with both hands, smiling at Ruan Jiaojiao and said, "Jiaojiao, the school is setting up a radio station next week, and the teacher has reserved a spot for you in the English corner. Would you like to go up and read an English article every day?"

She paused and then added, "You can also read the dialogues from our textbook with Xiu Xi. That way, if the other students see you doing well, they might come to like English more."

Gu Zichen was aware of Ruan Jiaojiao and Xiu Xi’s capabilities and knew that reading an article would not be difficult for them. It might be because everyone was just introduced to English in the first year, and the general foundation was not strong. If they didn’t perform well, enthusiasm waned, so Gu Zichen hoped to spark everyone’s enthusiasm through Ruan Jiaojiao and Xiu Xi.

The radio station was a project she funded herself. After graduating from college, she returned to her hometown with fervent zeal, determined to have a few students from this small place go abroad for study! Now, she was full of drive.

"Wow..." Upon hearing this, the surrounding classmates let out envious exclamations of amazement.

Being a radio station announcer was seen as a rather impressive feat in their eyes, and being able to do so was considered a matter of great honor.

Moreover, it was to read English at the radio station, which sounded quite impressive.

Ruan Jiaojiao was equally surprised, not expecting the teacher to have such high expectations of her. However, she said, "Teacher, I don’t attend the morning reading session."

Normally, the broadcasts from the radio station would be after the morning reading session and at noon, with some in the evening as well, but the most important time was right after the morning self-study session.

"I am aware of that, so we can adjust the timing to have you broadcast in the evening, is that okay?"

To have Ruan Jiaojiao broadcast in English, Gu Zichen had gone to some lengths. Knowing that Jiaojiao did not attend the morning session and took an early nap at noon, the only real time available was in the evening.

Since Gu Zichen already put it that way, Ruan Jiaojiao would seem too demanding if she refused, so she nodded and agreed.
