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

Chapter 345: The Harvest Day of Class 212 August 2nd, Sunday. Early in the morning, Su Qi received a call from Yang Chunhua of Bilibili. Recently, Yang Chunhua had been closely following Su Qi's livestream channel each night. She was well aware of Su Qi's temporary pause in live streaming due to exams over the past few days. Today happened to be the last day Su Qi served as the substitute homeroom teacher. Though Su Qi's livestream didn't feature a comment section, and the host herself didn’t interact with viewers, over the past month, her channel had still managed to attract quite a number of regular viewers. By the end of the month, the number had stabilized over 10,000. Today was the day for evaluating Class 212’s academic performance and as part of that, Yang Chunhua had made sure to secure a big recommendation page for Su Qi’s broadcast. She even renamed it to "The Harvest Day of Class 212." So, early in the morning, she called Su Qi to remind her not to forget to go live. After emphasizing it three times, she finally hung up. Su Qi couldn't help but find Yang Chunhua's reminder amusing. Am I really that forgetful? Besides, Su Qi had specifically adjusted the livestream schedule to span the entire day. After all, yesterday many teachers, though they hadn’t said it aloud, were still somewhat skeptical. Su Qi planned to quell all doubts by addressing questions live, letting everyone know that Class 212’s results were genuine and earned through real effort. The class was set to begin at 8 o'clock in the morning. Since Su Qi promised the students of Class 212 that she would go over all the exams on this last day, she arrived half an hour early to inform the subject teachers about her plan to review the exams herself. However, as soon as she stepped into the office, Su Qi found herself surrounded by a group of teachers, many of whom she wasn’t familiar with. She felt a bit overwhelmed until the director of education stepped forward to explain. It turned out that the previous day’s exam results of Class 212 were so impressive that news of it quickly spread within the large chat groups of Saide International High School, especially since one student even became the top scorer. Today, the gathered teachers all came to see how it was done. After all, which teacher doesn't wish for their students to excel? Moreover, their salary and performance are linked to students' achievements! Under the curious gaze of the teachers, Su Qi felt slightly awkward. Many were older than her—asking for advice wasn’t exactly something she was keen on offering. She only offered a couple of comments about tailored teaching and independent learning before excusing herself, saying she had exams to review, and hurried out of the office. Some of the first-year and third-year teachers, not having heard the valuable insights they were hoping for, felt a bit disappointed, until the director of education spoke up: "Su's recorded daily livestream videos can be shared later. You all can reference them." Hearing this, the teachers left contently. Su Qi, with the stack of exams in her arms, approached the back door of the familiar Class 212 and looked through the glass into the classroom. She noticed that the students of Class 212 appeared visibly excited, and she anticipated that announcing their results later would certainly be entertaining. With the chime of the eight o'clock bell, Su Qi walked into the classroom. Seeing Su Qi with the pile of exams, the students seemed particularly eager, whether from seeing her or from their curiosity about the results. Su Qi placed the exams on the podium and made a gesture for silence before saying, "Everyone, this time the results are excellent. We won the bet against Class 210!" Hearing this, a wave of excitement erupted in Class 212, so loud that even the education director came to check. After the director's stern face settled things down, the class’s enthusiasm was subdued, though a blush of excitement still colored everyone’s faces. Once the director left, Su Qi did not immediately start reviewing the exams but first informed the students that they would be starting a livestream. This was something Su Qi had discussed in a small class meeting two days earlier with the students of Class 212. Given their impressive performance this time, such a joyous event was certainly worth sharing with their parents. After switching the livestream on, Su Qi began distributing the first exam subject, English. To make sure the parents could clearly hear the scores, she raised her voice as she announced, "Zhao Tianci 69, Tang Zihan 85, Zhang Yishu 96…” With each name called, a student would come up to retrieve their answer sheet until finally, Su Qi announced, "Xiao Xiaoxiao 150—full marks!" Hearing this, not only were the students of Class 212 dumbfounded, but the online viewers in the livestream were equally astonished. Xiao Jinyu and Chu Qin, who were watching the stream, were astonished to see their daughter achieve 150 points. They were aware of their daughter's previous performance, and for her to have improved to a perfect score in just a few days seemed somewhat unbelievable. However, seeing their daughter perform so exceptionally did bring joy to the proud parents. The students of Class 212, unaware of the buzz of the livestream, were amazed by Xiao Xiaoxiao’s perfect score, but soon they refocused on their own answer sheets and exams. After all, this was the first time they had received such high scores. Looking at the exams, everyone felt thrilled and accomplished, with a palpable sense of achievement. After letting the students of Class 212 bask in this sense of accomplishment for a short while, Su Qi brought their attention back, saying, "Okay, everyone, focus on the exams. We can only distribute the other subject scores after we finish English." Hearing Su Qi’s melodious voice like a songbird, the students of Class 212 promptly turned their attention to the exams. This time, rather than merely attending the class, their greater desire was to learn the results of the next subject—ever since the English exam, their anticipation for the other subjects had only grown. Su Qi, from the podium, noticed all their eager little expressions. As a teacher, she still diligently explained each point in detail. Throughout the lesson, Su Qi frequently engaged the students of Class 212 with questions, bringing a lively and positive classroom atmosphere. The audience in the livestream could also tell that the students of Class 212 were genuinely invested in learning, quelling any doubts of cheating. As time passed, the results for each subject were eventually unveiled. Finishing the last subject, biology, Su Qi noticed it was nearing 5 o'clock. Observing the students of Class 212, still exhilarated from receiving their scores, she mysteriously asked, "Does anyone want to guess our class’s average score this time?" Though everyone was now aware of their individual scores, estimating the average was another matter. Seeing their hesitance, Su Qi encouraged, "You can be more confident in your guesses!” With Su Qi’s encouragement, Zhao Tianci, the class monitor, boldly ventured a guess, "380." "Too low." "480." "Too high." With Su Qi guiding them with her cues, the guessing game swiftly reached its conclusion. In the sophomore year-end exam, Class 212 achieved an average score of 415. Once they heard the average score was 415, the entire classroom erupted in excitement! Several boys even began to whoop wildly like untamed stallions. And then, the education director returned.
