Chapter 108 Likes "Yes, sir."
The chat in the live stream was initially filled with everyone talking their own thing, but upon hearing this, they immediately launched an attack on Ren Lang.
[Brilliant! Ye Hantao's retort was brilliant!]
[...I used to think Ren Lang was pretentious for teaching French, but now I just want to say he deserves a beating (smile.jpg)]
I'm shocked! How could Ren Lang say something like that? Isn't that discrimination against the poor?
[Ren Lang is really something else. If he doesn't want to translate, he should just say so. He could at least say something like, "Learning French requires concentration," instead of spouting nonsense about not having the opportunity to use it. Haha!]
[I despise them from the bottom of my heart!]
What was Ren Lang thinking? Why did he say these things during the live stream?
[He's always been like this! A few years ago, a director publicly said that Spanish is a language for poor people, and he even liked that post.]
[He also said in an interview that he never watches Chinese films and TV dramas. His fans claimed it was because he only watches niche films, but actually, his expression at the time showed that he looked down on Chinese works!]
Ren Lang couldn't see the attacks against him in the live chat, but Ye Hantao's casual remark still felt like a resounding slap across his face.
Ren Lang was both surprised and furious.
Ye, Han, Tao!
Ye Hantao actually did this in front of the camera to save face for a few poor people!
Ren Lang, unable to bear it any longer, was about to question Ye Hantao about her intentions.
[Current gratitude level: -1%]
[Due to the negative emotions the associated target has towards the host, the host's luck for the next month is reduced by 7.]
Ren Lang's eyes were bloodshot.
The sudden electronic sound abruptly pulled him back to his remaining rationality.
Ye Hantao, who also heard the electronic sound, was speechless.
Ye Hantao glanced at Ren Lang, subtly bracing herself to protect herself in case he lost his temper and acted irrationally.
Seeing that Ye Hantao's arm was taut, Cheng Zhao stepped forward and gently nudged her shoulder with his finger.
"Class monitor, hurry up and start class," he urged lazily. "The students are waiting."
Ye Hantao snapped out of her daze, led the four students a short distance away, and sat down in her seat.
Ren Lang could only stand there and watch Ye Hantao walk away, feeling utterly bewildered.
Ye Hantao's gratitude towards him decreased because of these few students from a poor mountain village?!
“Teacher Ye…” one of the students said softly, his face flushed and his lips pursed, “He’s right, we don’t have a chance to use it.”
Ye Hantao shook her head, "If you want, you'll still need to use it as everyday language in the future."
[Disease progression: 4%]
"???"
Ye Hantao couldn't understand why the audience thought she was lying.
Before she came, her uncle promised that, like a student of excellent character, he would take them to see more of the outside world and help them find goals to strive for.
Velvion Group's headquarters are located overseas, so there aren't many French-speaking employees.
A white lie can warm your heart.
[How is that a lie? It's not like they didn't have opportunities to leave the mountains.]
I might be a bit detached, and while Ren Lang's words were harsh, I have to admit that it's incredibly difficult for even one of them to make it through.
I do believe they can go abroad, but it just means they need to develop enough to use French as a common language. When the school leaders gave us a tour just now, there really weren't any students in the school outstanding enough to qualify for government-funded overseas study.
[Studying is certainly not the only path to success, but they live in a remote, impoverished mountain area, which adds to their already dire situation.]
Unexpectedly, when Jin Shiyue heard Ye Hantao say to the students, she suddenly said, "If you can speak either English or French fluently, I will send you to study abroad until you start working."
【?!!!】
[I just remembered someone saying that Kim Si-wol has been sponsoring children in impoverished mountain areas for a long time!]
So all the gossip about Kim Si-wol's family online is true?
[Can Jin Shiyue still break up with Ren Lang?]
Seeing that the four students were dumbfounded, Ye Hantao reminded them, "Quickly thank Teacher Jin."
The four students immediately realized what was happening. "Thank you, Teacher Jin! We will study hard!"
Facing the trusting and ardent gazes of her students, Jin Shiyue turned her face away, only to find that several students from her own group were also looking at her.
"...If you master a foreign language, I'll give it to you too."
"Thank you, Teacher Jin!!!"
At the same time, everyone inexplicably heard several bird calls, which were getting closer and closer.
The weather was clear and cloudless.
Two birds flapped their wings and flew in through the open window.
Holy crap?
Did that bird fly in from outside?
The eyes of the program crew and the viewers in the live broadcast room all turned to Ren Lang even before birds flew by.
A few seconds later, they witnessed two black dots plummeting to the ground.
With two soft splats, it landed precisely in Ren Lang's hair.
Two birds flapped their wings and flew out of the activity room through the window.
"..."
The entire room fell silent.
Ren Lang's mind went blank. The next second, his blood rushed to his head, filled with humiliation and anger.
He got pulled again?!
Su Yi'ang was still a little confused until Ren Lang was led to the restroom by the school principal with a lot of apologies.
"Brother Ren, why did you—" Su Yi'ang scratched his head, "acquire a batch of local specialties? Two of them?"
Chen Xiaofeng opened his mouth wide, and his unrestrained laughter echoed throughout the classroom.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!
[Help me!!!]
Why is he being singled out by everyone?
[They flew all the way to the activity room just to pull him down!!!]
[Hahaha, I told you so long ago! Ren Lang only got into trouble because he did so many despicable things!]
[Seriously, he used to look down on children in impoverished mountain areas, but he got a lesson from the birds in the blink of an eye...]
As soon as this comment appeared, Ye Hantao also spoke up to remind the students, "Even birds can't stand people who can't chat."
The four students quickly covered their heads.
Ye Hantao glanced again at Ren Lang's gradually disappearing figure, and reacted a step later.
Even if Ren Lang had actually attacked in a fit of rage, wouldn't the attack have backfired on him?
Thinking of this, Ye Hantao looked up at Cheng Zhao from her seat.
Look at his tall stature, and his strong arms peeking out from his sleeves.
Cheng Zhao stepped forward to separate her from Ren Lang. Did he also hear the electronic voice?
As if sensing something, Cheng Zhao met Ye Hantao's gaze and then stepped forward.
This person has long legs and a long stride; he caught up in just a few steps.
He sat cross-legged next to Ye Hantao, turned his head to look at her, and said, "I was not good at math when I was in school, so I can review it with you guys."
Ye Hantao wanted to ask him if he had heard the electronic voice, but she knew it wasn't a good time, so she simply shoved the workbook she had prepared in advance into his hands.
“Then you can be a teaching assistant,” she said.
Cheng Zhao readily agreed, "Yes, squad leader."
[Family members, I won't say who got hit by this (starry-eyed emoji)]
[Their interaction is so natural! Did they really not secretly date?]
[I suggest you first check out the business scope of Dingxin Group. How many of its subsidiaries are as large as Velvion Group? A perfect match isn't just a figure of speech.]
[Ugh, why does someone always have to pour cold water on me? Ye Hantao is already amazing, okay?]
[Sob sob, not to mention Maze, Zhou Shumiao, and Zhou Yi, Ye Hantao's personal achievements alone are beyond my reach!!!]
Cheng Zhao smiled at the nervous students and asked, "Would you like to hear a bilingual translation in English and French?"
One student exclaimed in surprise, "Teacher Cheng, you speak French too?"
Cheng Zhao raised an eyebrow. "Not really."
"Huh? Weren't you going to provide us with bilingual translation?"
"As long as I'm shameless, I can talk nonsense."
Several students were dumbfounded, feeling as if they had been taught another lesson.
Except for one or two students, everyone else in their class would blush when the teacher called on them to ask a question they didn't know!
Ye Hantao chuckled softly, "You can do the bilingual translation."
Cheng Zhao asked knowingly, "Aren't you afraid I'll lead them astray?"
Upon hearing this, the students were too embarrassed to speak.
If they can be easily misled by two major translation questions, they must have an exceptionally high aptitude for languages.
"It's alright." Ye Hantao handed out answer sheets and pens to the students. "I believe you're a good person who walks straight."
Cheng Zhao couldn't help but chuckle, "I really need to translate this properly, without adding any accent."
The little girl in the lead looked at Cheng Zhao, then at Ye Hantao, a look of sudden realization crossing her small face.
She seems to have figured out how to chat!
A good conversation is one that makes the other person laugh as they talk!
Ye Hantao pointed to the first question and showed it to the students: "Given parallelogram ABCD—"
This is a textbook she borrowed from her teacher.
The two selected questions are a type of question that covers a wide range of topics.
While Ye Hantao was reading the questions, Cheng Zhao diligently held the question booklet so that she could read it easily.
Sunlight streamed down, casting a soft, pale gold hue on Ye Hantao's hair and earlobes.
Cheng Zhao consciously regulated his breathing to prevent his voice from sounding too soft or too loud.
But he couldn't control his heart rate.
After Ye Hantao finished reading, he cleared his throat and translated the title in English and French.
Cheng Zhao read slowly, pausing slightly between words to ensure the students could hear the pronunciation clearly.
The students were hearing French for the first time, and their eyes were shining.
Over there, Chen Xiaofeng, who was teaching his students English, felt uneasy and asked them, "Shall I teach you a few French phrases too?"
Jin Shiyue retorted sharply, "He's displaying his peacock-like plumage, and you're just envious?"
Chen Xiaofeng: "..."
Why are you arguing with Cheng Zhao who opened the screen?
Wu Xia silently hugged the thermos in her arms and lowered her voice to teach the student she had assigned to speak English.
Compared to Groups B and C, Ye Hantao and Cheng Zhao's teaching progress is quite fast.
Ye Hantao asked four classmates in a row and received four replies of "I have learned/I understand". Then she used a ballpoint pen to change the acute angle in the question from 60° to 90° and erased one of the edges.
"Come on," Ye Hantao said, a smile curving her lips. "You can do it again."
The students scratched their heads.
The teaching pace at their school is much slower than in the city, and the teachers rarely extend their knowledge to other areas.
From the teacher's perspective, it's enough for students to have a general grasp of the content in the textbook.
The four students looked at each other for a few seconds, and then the little girl in the lead took the initiative to pick up a pen and do the calculations.
[Help! Memories from my school days are flooding back!]
[Ye Hantao truly lives up to her reputation as a college student!]
[Back then, I was one of those idiots who loudly proclaimed that I had learned it, only to be completely dumbfounded when the teacher changed the conditions :)]
[I'm a college student too, and I still couldn't understand this middle school level question.]
I just listened to Ye Hantao explain the problem and understood it. It felt like the knowledge had come back to my brain for a while.
Do you still understand the questions after Ye Hantao corrected them?
Sorry, knowledge has disappeared again without a word.
Hahahahahahahahaha!!!
Cheng Zhao watched from the side and laughed. Seeing that three students still hadn't answered the question, he translated it again for them in English and French.
Suddenly, Cheng Zhao noticed a staff member making a hand gesture to him.
Cheng Zhao's eyes darkened slightly, and he suppressed his smile.
"Tao Tao, I'm going to the restroom."
"good."
A moment later, Cheng Zhao met with his staff.
This staff member, surnamed Yin, was one of several staff members he had bribed.
They don't need to do anything; just keep an eye on Yuan Kai and Ren Lang when it matters.
Xiao Yin whispered, "I just overheard Ren Lang making a phone call in the bathroom, saying that he'd take action tonight and that he'd call Ye Hantao out."
When Cheng Zhao returned to the classroom, he happened to hear Ye Hantao happily say, "Great! I declare that you have thoroughly understood both of these questions!"
Ye Hantao handed the answer sheets back to the students, saying, "Now please write down the person you like on the answer sheet. It can be a family member, classmate, teacher, or anyone else."
Seeing the students writing with their heads down, Cheng Zhao reached out to Ye Hantao, "Class monitor, can I borrow a pen?"
Ye Hantao didn't understand why, but she still lent him the pen.
The students finished writing their names and looked up.
"Now it's time for our first lesson in conversation," Ye Hantao said with a sly smile. "Tell them face-to-face that you really like them."
