When the Side Character Gets a System and Travels through Difference Worlds

Not long after the evening study session began, the students gradually filed in. Li Fugui also arrived at the classroom, carrying the monthly exam papers. A bolder student spoke up, "Is the class president first again?"

"Do you even need to ask? The class president is always number one."

"When it comes to the science subjects, you basically never see the class president lose a single point."

"It’s so demoralizing. She gets a perfect score almost every time."

Listening to the chatter from below, Li Fugui cleared his throat. "You all guessed it. For this monthly exam, Tan You’s math score is first in the grade."

The sports rep muttered, "Teacher, you might as well just say the class president is first in the grade for all subjects."

Li Fugui chuckled. "Yes, she is first in the grade for all subjects. You should all learn from her."

The students fell silent. ’How are we supposed to learn from the class president? By reading extracurricular books during class that none of us can understand? Is that the secret to her high scores?’

Perhaps sensing his words could be misunderstood, Li Fugui didn’t dwell on Tan You’s scores and changed the subject. "I don’t make a habit of announcing scores, but once you get your papers back, I expect you all to take this seriously."

"You had a week off for the National Day holiday. Now that you’re back at school, it’s time to focus. Your first year of high school is a crucial time for building a foundation."

"By the way, I’m having Tan You lead today’s study session. I’ve noticed you all seem to enjoy her lectures."

Tan You looked up, her gaze meeting Li Fugui’s. She didn’t flinch or look away, and a small smile touched her lips. "Alright. Then for today’s study session, I’ll go over this month’s exam papers with everyone..."

When the first period of the evening study session ended, Li Fugui got up from Tan You’s desk and gave her a meaningful look. Tan You understood and followed him out of the classroom.

"I’ve signed you up for the preliminary competition; it was just a matter of adding your name. As for the study materials, Teacher Xu said he’ll give me a copy tomorrow. Prepare well during this time. I’ll go with you to the exam at No. 2 High School next week."

Tan You smiled. "Okay. Thank you for taking care of it. I’ll prepare well."

Li Fugui smiled back. "Since you’re participating, give it your all. Don’t leave any regrets."

"By the way, the monthly exam report cards have been compiled. Tonight is also Teacher Tang’s evening study session for the ninth graders. Do you want to go find him after 9:30?"

Tan You was pleasantly surprised. "Can I? Isn’t there an English listening practice tonight?"

Li Fugui beamed. "Just ask the English teacher for leave later. She has a lot of confidence in you; she’ll understand."

In a rare display, Tan You’s eyes curved into crescents as she smiled. "Okay, thank you, Teacher Li."

After getting the monthly exam report card from Li Fugui, Tan You was in an excellent mood for the next two class periods. The pitch of her voice couldn’t help but rise a little as she lectured, and seeing her like this, Li Fugui couldn’t help but smile.

’It’s quite interesting,’ he thought. ’Even someone so mature has her own soft spot. Right now, she actually looks like a fourteen-year-old girl, with some of the liveliness of her peers.’

Tan You was in Class 3 of the first year, located in the middle of the third floor of the academic building. Tan Ying was in Class 1, which was the first classroom down the hall.

Tan Ying’s stomach was feeling a bit upset today. After asking her teacher for permission, she hurried toward the restroom. To get there, she had to pass by Class 3. As she walked past the classroom, she saw Tan You standing at the lectern, giving a lecture.

She was standing sideways in front of the blackboard, a piece of chalk in her hand, occasionally writing down mathematical formulas. Below, every single student was looking up, listening in complete silence.

In Tan Ying’s memory, Tan You’s math was exceptionally poor. ’But now, she’s actually able to stand up there and teach the other students?’ Tan Ying wanted to keep watching, but a sharp cramp in her stomach pulled her back to reality.

After another quick glance, Tan Ying hurried off to the restroom. And this entire scene, aside from the Beauty System, went unnoticed by anyone else.

The evening study listening practice usually started at 9:40. With Li Fugui’s approval, Tan You calmly ditched today’s session, took the report card, and slipped out of the classroom.

Cao Haiyan watched Tan You’s departing figure with envy. ’When will I ever be like Tan You? Even when she skips class, she has a teacher vouching for her. Oh well, I should just focus on trying to catch up to her.’

Old Tang was in the office reading a book. Although he looked fierce, he was a classic example of someone who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. There were a few other teachers in the office, but Tan You didn’t look too closely. She just knocked on the door. "Teacher Tang, are you busy?"

Old Tang was taken aback. His brow furrowed, but it smoothed out as soon as he saw Tan You. "What are you doing here at this hour? Don’t you have English listening practice?"

Tan You walked in confidently. "Yes, but my homeroom teacher knew I wanted to see you, so he helped me get excused from the English teacher."

Teacher Tang chuckled. "Sit down, sit down. Have the monthly exam scores come out?"

"Uh-huh, they’re out," Tan You said, sitting properly in the chair across from Teacher Tang. "A stable performance, as always."

Teacher Tang held out his hand to her. "Let me see the report card."

Tan You handed the report card over. The math teacher sitting behind Old Tang dragged his chair over. "Full marks in all the science subjects! You’ve really become amazing."

This was her ninth-grade math teacher. Back then, this Mr. Zhou had also been very good to her. Tan You smiled at him. "Yep. Just like you said, Mr. Zhou, it suddenly clicked."

Old Tang looked a little displeased. "You were my Chinese language representative, but you had your breakthrough in math. What’s that about?"

Mr. Zhou laughed heartily. "It’s a good thing! Look, her Chinese score is nearly perfect too. It’s all the same, all the same."

Several of the teachers in the office were her former ninth-grade teachers. Tan You didn’t feel awkward at all and had a very pleasant chat with them.

’It feels like returning home in glory. There are so many things I can’t say in front of Cheng Wenhui and Tan Lin, but I can say them to my former teachers. It’s strangely ironic when you think about it.’

However happy Tan You was chatting with the teachers, that’s how sullen Yang Lanying was in her corner of the office. She had seen Tan You come in and had prepared herself for Tan You to greet her. But Tan You didn’t even glance her way, chatting only with the ninth-grade teachers.

’She had been Tan You’s teacher too, and she had even taken good care of her... But ever since that incident, Tan You had become incredibly distant, no longer looking at her with that old expression of respect and adoration...’

Thinking of their past, Yang Lanying lowered her gaze. She had been a teacher for over twenty years, after all, and had been tempered by the small society of the school. She was naturally able to hide her true feelings.

Therefore, faced with the lively scene in the other corner of the office, she could only pretend to organize her lesson plans to hide her inner turmoil.

Old Tang, who always wore a stern expression, now had a particularly gentle smile as he faced Tan You. "You don’t have to run over here so often. We all know your name around here. Don’t let this interfere with your studies."

"Just focus on your own school life and do well."
