305 - I Don’t Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System

# Chapter 305: Kawaii Su Wei Yi watched the 212 class's surveillance footage, observing his sister's improvisational skills and the students' feedback. He increasingly felt that Su Qi was truly quite suited to being a teacher. Once she graduates, he must somehow trick her — no, recruit her to join their school. Although Su Qi's reasoning was a bit unconventional, Su Wei Yi had to admit that sometimes good looks provide a tremendous advantage. Her image was just too perfect. The only slight shortcoming was her age, which was rather young for a teacher. However, this also hinted that Su Qi had an unlimited future ahead. Hearing the bell for the end of class, Su Wei Yi headed towards classroom 212. As soon as class ended, Su Qi was surrounded by a sea of enthusiastic students from 212. "Ms. Su, can you really be our homeroom teacher?" "Ms. Su, what cosmetics do you use?" "Ms. Su, I'm your biggest fan..." Seeing all the eager students, Su Qi found it a bit overwhelming and said, "I'll be here for the night study sessions too, so for now, why don't you all go for a walk outside? It's tough on the body to stay indoors for two hours straight. Also, if anyone plans to skip the night study, please make sure to inform me in advance." Usually, about half the students in class 212 would choose to leave early, given that the two-hour night study was quite grueling. For those who stayed, it was often a choice made because they might face stricter parental control over phone use at home, making staying at school more appealing. Back when they were freshmen, Teacher Huang would occasionally monitor their phone usage, but by sophomore year, they let them be more free. But today was different. With such a beautiful teacher, just watching her was a feast for the eyes. Moreover, she was about their age and didn't lecture endlessly. And most importantly, Ms. Su was incredibly beautiful — so beautiful, so beautiful — it's worth mentioning thrice. Missing such a sight would be foolish. As a result, no student from class 212 submitted a request for early leave that day. While Su Qi was contemplating how to escape the throng of enthusiastic students, she heard her older brother's voice at the doorway. "Ms. Su, could you step out for a moment?" Seeing that the principal had arrived, the students had to allow their teacher to exit the classroom. This was, in fact, a little trick from Su Wei Yi. Though he hadn't said anything stern, being that Su Qi was a new intern teacher for class 212 and was evidently very popular, Su Wei Yi used the students' affection to his advantage by calling her out with a serious face. This would give the students the impression that Ms. Su might be in trouble. At this point, to protect their beloved teacher — even if it was just for show — they would be motivated to study. And with studying, sometimes, who knows? Pretending can lead to genuine interest. This was something Su Wei Yi had hinted at to Su Qi before class, and she wasn't particularly surprised. Once in the teachers' office, Su Wei Yi asked, "How do you find class 212?" For Su Qi, this was her first time teaching. Having spent her life as a student, she wasn't quite sure how to evaluate a class. However, recalling that the students seemed to know her and yet never called her by a nickname like "Princess Flyer," she found them rather endearing and replied, "They’re quite kind-hearted." Su Qi didn’t expect that her sincere comment would be misunderstood by Su Wei Yi. For teachers, calling students "kind-hearted" often implies that there are no other standout qualities worth mentioning. With no other positives to speak of, "kind-hearted" can be akin to the phrase "You're a good person." However, Su Wei Yi, as the principal, felt that calling them kind-hearted was actually a rather nice evaluation, further enhancing Su Qi’s image as an educator without her even realizing it. He had also come to discuss the arrangements for the night study. Since this was Su Qi’s first time teaching, she was unfamiliar with the night study schedule at Saide High School. After some thought, Su Wei Yi decided to have a physics teacher temporarily take over Su Qi’s night study session, so she could observe how it was conducted. Su Qi agreed with this, after all, having always been a student in the first class, she really had no idea how the night study sessions operated in the twelfth class. "This is Mr. Jin, the substitute teacher for class 212. And this is Ms. Su," Su Wei Yi introduced them. Physics teacher Jin Wu Zheng, having already been impressed by the skills Ms. Su had demonstrated earlier, found that, up close, she looked even younger, almost like a high school student herself. He couldn't help but admire such youthful talent. Due to the earlier demonstration related to photographic memory, Teacher Jin asked a lot about memory techniques, since everyone envied such efficient study methods. Su Qi, in turn, asked many questions about teaching. Their conversation was lively. Soon enough, the bell for the 8 o'clock class rang. Su Qi, holding the large 'Stock Trading Manual No. 2,' went together with Teacher Jin Wu Zheng to class 212. As a physics teacher, Jin Wu Zheng typically enjoyed night studies with class 212. The reason being — they were light work. First, there were simply fewer students in class 212, and even fewer showed up for night study — only about 10 or so, which had become the norm. Typically, in other classes, even in class 11, students would ask some questions during night study, but in class 12, it was virtually unheard of. This allowed him, a physics teacher, to enjoy some leisure time, like reading his favorite books. However, approaching class 212 that day, Jin Wu Zheng noticed something was off. Because today, there seemed to be quite a crowd. After checking, he discovered there were as many as 24 students; what was going on? Soon, as Ms. Su entered the classroom, the reason became clear to the physics teacher. Su Qi was the reason! This left Teacher Jin marveling — could this be the power of good looks? Students of class 212, watching Ms. Su come in with a large book in her arms, found her quite adorable. Unsurprisingly, all eyes turned toward Su Qi. Su Qi had intended to find an empty spot to sit. Scanning the room, she noticed Xiao Xiao, who looked rather isolated, like a hedgehog in the upper left corner. Thus, their eyes met. Su Qi was surprised to find that behind Xiao Xiao's bangs lay a pair of very large, round eyes — quite delightful. Yet, before Su Qi could get a better look, the little girl lowered her head, adopting an ostrich-like posture of hiding. Su Qi only found her more adorable. It reminded her of her own high school days, when she also craved a good friend to accompany her. Su Qi guessed Xiao Xiao felt the same way, just lacking the courage to reach out for fear of rejection. With this in mind, Su Qi slowly walked towards Xiao Xiao's desk. Leaning down, she softly asked the ostrich-hiding Xiao Xiao, "Xiao Xiao, can Ms. Su sit next to you?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Xiao lifted her head from her adorable hiding gesture. She met the sincere and pure gaze of Ms. Su. After hesitating for two seconds, her little head gave a slight nod, and she faintly murmured, "Okay." Then she resumed her spiky hedgehog posture, entering a new round of hiding. Witnessing this, three words automatically sprang to Su Qi's mind: [Kawaii-] --- **Friendly Reminder:** The website's "Rankings" page has been optimized for better book selection, feel free to check it out!
