- I Don’t Want to Be Turned Into the Female Protagonist by the System
# Chapter 307: An Ning's Study Session The physics teacher was somewhat surprised as he stepped down from the podium, heading towards the two students. Only when he drew closer did he realize that Zhao Tian Ci and Tang Zi Han were indeed working on a test paper. Zhao Tian Ci and Tang Zi Han were at a loss. They hadn’t intended to work on the paper. However, their phones were out of battery after playing Genshin Impact, and the classroom was filled with an unprecedented urge to actually do something. As desk mates, they found themselves bored, staring at the physics test distributed earlier. Neither could recall who started, but somehow, they began working on it in a haphazard manner. Soon they realized they didn’t understand much and were frantically searching through the textbook for formulas. After solving two problems, they found the process surprisingly enjoyable. Even as the physics teacher approached their desks, he didn’t notice anything unusual. Observing that the two were genuinely working on the paper, the physics teacher rubbed his eyes. He glanced outside, half-expecting to see the sun rising in the west given this sudden turn of events. Could it be they suddenly realized the importance of studying? The physics teacher felt a surge of relief. At this moment, he heard the sound of pages flipping from another side of the classroom. Puzzled, the physics teacher pondered if anyone else in the class was reading too. Scanning the room, he discovered that another reader wasn’t a student but rather the newly employed “Teacher Su.” At the moment, she was engrossed in reading a massive book. Earlier, the physics teacher had been curious about the book, given its size. However, as the 212 class was close to the teachers' office, he never got around to asking. Deciding to check now, the physics teacher carefully made his way behind Teacher Su from the back of the room. There, he saw the extensive book belonging to Su Qi, filled with countless records. Glancing at the myriad of data and interspersed text, the physics teacher found it complex, even at a single glance. Then, Su Qi turned the page. In the half hour before school ended, the physics teacher remained behind Su Qi and was amazed by a discovery: Teacher Su's concentration was quite formidable. Influenced by her presence, the atmosphere in the entire 212 class transformed significantly. He had a premonition that this 212 class might indeed change under Teacher Su’s influence. At ten o'clock at night, accompanied by the loud dismissal bell, Su Qi closed the stock-trading manual, feeling thoroughly satisfied with a 3.2x efficiency. The efficiency of those two hours was even higher than what she usually achieved in four hours at home. “Teacher Su, goodbye!” Su Qi heard a timid voice beside her. Turning around, she realized it was her desk mate Xiao Xiao. Xiao Xiao was standing there obediently, her backpack slung over her shoulders, hands gripping its straps tightly, looking very cute. “See you tomorrow. Make sure you get enough rest tonight, Xiao Xiao.” Su Qi teased her, turning slightly as she spoke. She watched Xiao Xiao scurry off quickly, but heard a faint agreement from her. Her slightly tsundere attitude was undeniably adorable, Su Qi thought. 10:40 PM At this hour, only Su Qi remained in the staff office. The reason Su Qi hadn't gone home yet was because her brother, the principal, didn’t want others to think he was playing favorites by hiring his sister, which might damage his reputation. Su Qi agreed; it would indeed be awkward if others knew she was the principal’s sister. Instead of idly waiting, Su Qi was chatting with An Ning, her defeated foe. An Ning found the news that her partner was teaching quite sudden, given their recent calls hadn’t hinted at it. However, she had to admit that her partner’s image in that teacher’s outfit suited the role quite well. Listening to her partner cheerfully recounting her new experiences, An Ning simply felt happy. Yet she detected a hint of... something else. “An Ning, my dear, there's this little girl in our class who's incredibly cute and small. She doesn’t even look like she could beat me. She’s my desk mate now.” “Her name’s Xiao Xiao. Doesn’t it sound adorable? And she's super shy. When you and Zi Jin visit, I’ll definitely introduce her to you.” Hearing her partner mention Xiao Xiao twice and even become desk mates, An Ning couldn’t help but feel a hint of jealousy. However, she quickly put the thought aside as impossible. After all, Su Qi was Xiao Xiao’s teacher now. Even if her partner could be mischievous, she wouldn’t cross such a line. Besides, high school students are usually minors, and that’s not right! Moreover, having experienced time with her and Zi Jin, a high schooler’s naïve charms couldn’t possibly lure Su Qi. An Ning was confident in her allure. Yet, to be cautious, she decided to visit Zhejiang soon to prevent any potential complications. After all, her partner is quite sought after now. Thinking about Gu Pan Pan stealing a kiss, her deceitful sister, and the occasional mention of Bai Miao made An Ning’s head spin. Her partner’s charisma was truly overwhelming. But upon reflection, she dismissed the idea of rushing to Zhejiang immediately. After all, she had lost a solo confrontation with Su Qi previously and wasn’t eager to repeat that embarrassment. This time, An Ning resolved to travel with Wang Zi Jin to Zhejiang. However, her friend was on a trip with Ying Lan and her mother, and they’d only return next week. In the meantime, An Ning planned to casually browse some videos to learn a bit more. She aimed to take Su Qi by surprise and redeem herself a week later. Unaware of An Ning’s plans, Su Qi hung up and saw her brother arriving to pick her up. Seeing that it was nearly 11 PM, Su Qi couldn't help but feel her brother was working too hard. At this late hour, the roads were clear, and the drive was smooth, taking only thirty minutes to get home, just like the journey there. Still, arriving home at 11:30 was a first for Su Qi. From a distance, she noticed her house was brightly lit, and felt warmth blossom in her heart. Opening the door to find her father asleep on the sofa made her feel a pang of sympathy. After all, her father wasn’t getting any younger. Lu Ran also bore faint dark circles under her eyes, stirring Su Qi's concern. “Mom, you didn’t have to wait up for me. I’m not a kid anymore; nothing will happen.” Lu Ran felt comforted seeing Su Qi’s big, earnest eyes and her concern. Yet Lu Ran and Su Lu Jun couldn’t entirely agree with Su Qi’s words. Their daughter was so beautiful. Ever since returning to Zhejiang from Su City and after her rise to fame, no fewer than twenty families had come forth with matchmaking proposals. Moreover, the previous incident with “Yang Ming” was still fresh in their minds, making them all the more cautious. If anything were to happen, they’d blame themselves forever. It was only prudent to be overly attentive to their daughter. At midnight, Su Qi finally lay in bed. After everything that happened that day, Su Qi was too excited to sleep, even in her silk pajamas. Lying there, she couldn’t help but think of Xiao Xiao, the poor, adorable girl. Perhaps it was because she saw too much of her old self in Xiao Xiao, leaving Su Qi worried. Glancing at the phone beside her, she noticed the character Klee moving around the screen and defeating enemies on its own. Su Qi asked the system, “Is there any way to help Xiao Xiao?” The system, mimicking Klee, responded cheerfully after defeating a boss, “Host, once you become the class teacher, there might be rewards in future tasks. But I can’t say more!” Reassured by the system’s words, Su Qi found it increasingly endearing. She bade the system a good night and soon drifted into a deep slumber.
