DLSRWAR Chapter 74 Actually, we were married in our previous life.
Qin Yumian didn’t take the cigarette he handed over, her expression cold and indifferent.
Xu Caiquan thought it was because her hands were full with the stack of test papers, so he grinned and slipped the cigarette into her school uniform pocket.
After that, Xu Caiquan quickly slipped away.
Qin Yumian returned to the classroom with the papers. Ye Hancheng had been pulled by Qiu Gaotiao to play basketball, while Hao Jiajia was discussing the class’ bulletin board project with the art committee.
Qin Yumian handed the stack of test papers to the math class representative to distribute. Hao Jiajia called out to her, “Class Monitor Qin, do you have any ideas for our class bulletin board this semester?”
Last year, the sports meet coincided with the bulletin board project, so Qin Yumian had organized the sports event and didn’t participate in the bulletin board design.
But this year, the sports meet was scheduled after National Day, and since Qin Yumian was excellent at drawing, the art committee asked Hao Jiajia to get her opinion.
If Qin Yumian could help with the bulletin board this time, it would be even better.
Sitting at her desk, Qin Yumian flipped through her math guidebook. “Let’s make it about graduation.”
Hao Jiajia scooted closer. “Class Monitor Qin, why don’t you join us for it?”
Since designing a bulletin board wasn’t difficult, Qin Yumian didn’t refuse. “Alright.”
The evening self-study session was with Jiang Yue.
Before class, she had the students complete two listening exercises, then began reviewing some commonly tested phrases and tenses.
Ye Hancheng, being good at English, was asked by Jiang Yue to go to the board and write down the main tenses.
The young man walked leisurely to the front, twirling a piece of chalk in his hand. “Teacher, it’s a bit lonely if I write all by myself. Can you assign me a partner?”
Jiang Yue glanced at him, amused, “You’re always causing trouble. Who do you want to join you?”
Ye Hancheng glanced over at the girl sitting by the window. “How about the class monitor?”
Qin Yumian: “…”
Jiang Yue said, “Class monitor, come up and help Ye Hancheng write.”
With the teacher’s order, Qin Yumian had no choice but to comply.
She stood up, walked to the front, and stood at one end of the blackboard, while Ye Hancheng stood on the other side.
If the mountain won’t come to me, then I’ll go to the mountain.
In two or three steps, Ye Hancheng moved to stand next to Qin Yumian and whispered, “Class Monitor Qin, if we write together, we’ll finish faster.”
Qin Yumian: “…”
She didn’t agree.
Jiang Yue began reading out the first tense while standing in the aisle between the desks.
Ye Hancheng swiftly wrote it on the board.
Once he finished, Jiang Yue read out the next one.
One student raised a complaint, “Teacher, can you slow down a bit? We haven’t finished writing yet.”
Jiang Yue replied, “If you haven’t finished, just look at what Ye Hancheng wrote on the board.”
Qin Yumian wrote the second tense.
As they took turns writing, whenever it was Qin Yumian’s turn, Ye Hancheng would stand behind her.
Maybe because class was nearing the end, Jiang Yue suddenly picked up the pace. Before Qin Yumian finished writing, she was already reading the next tense.
Ye Hancheng lifted his chalk and, standing behind her, reached up to write in a spot she couldn’t reach.
The motion made it feel as if Qin Yumian was encircled by the young man’s arms.
At that moment, Jiang Yue called out, “Ye Hancheng, what did I say, and what did you write?”
Hearing this, Qin Yumian raised her head, curious to see what the young man had written.
Above her handwriting, in bold letters, was written: Hi, my wife.
After getting scolded by Jiang Yue, Ye Hancheng, unfazed, replied, “Teacher, if I say I just misheard, would you believe me?”
Jiang Yue couldn’t help but laugh, “Stop being cheeky. Erase it and rewrite it properly.”
Ye Hancheng glanced down at Qin Yumian in front of him and, seeing no reaction from her, his eyes dimmed slightly.
But soon enough, the young man’s spirits were revived again.
He had memories of their past life, but his wife didn’t. He knew that Qin Yumian would eventually become his wife, but the seventeen-year-old Qin Yumian didn’t know that yet.
This was his secret. He planned to only tell her when they were both old and gray: “Actually, we were married in our previous life.”
After starting their third year of high school, as the countdown to the college entrance exam steadily decreased, some students grew anxious, while others remained calm.
Rumor had it that a student in the advanced class had fallen ill from staying up late studying, so the school required homeroom teachers to counsel their students, reminding them to take care of their health while studying.
Jiang Yue, having guided several graduating classes through their third year, had experience. After attending the meeting, she came back and made everyone get up every morning for a run.
Most of the students in the class lived on campus. It took only five minutes to walk from the dormitory to the classroom, and with morning self-study session starting at 7, some students would only wake up at 6:50, get ready in five minutes, grab their backpacks, and dash to the classroom, slipping in just before the supervising teacher arrived.
Jiang Yue announced, “Every day at 6:40, check in with the class monitor and the discipline committee member. Then, go for a ten-minute run. After that, return to the classroom for the morning self-study session.”
As soon as she said this, the classroom was filled with groans and complaints from the students.
Ye Hancheng also found the arrangement unreasonable. “Teacher, I think this glorious task is best suited for the academic committee member and the new transfer student.”
Wu Yu (Academic Committee Member): “…”
Qiu Gaotiao (Transfer Student): “…”
Chengzi (Brother Han), are you throwing your brothers under the bus?
Jiang Yue didn’t dismiss his suggestion right away and instead asked, “Why?”
Ye Hancheng, with a serious face, replied, “Our academic committee member is particularly fond of doing things that benefit the class, and the new transfer student still hasn’t adjusted to the time difference. Getting him up early to take attendance will help him adapt.”
Qiu Gaotiao: “…”
Well, thank you very much!
He was only from the capital, what time difference was there to adjust to?
Jiang Yue thought about it for a moment and said, “You have a point. Let’s do that then. The class monitor and the academic committee member will handle attendance at the classroom door.”
Ye Hancheng: “…”
The young man immediately changed his tune. “Teacher, after giving it more thought, I think it’s better if the discipline committee member handles the attendance.”
Jiang Yue asked, “Do you think you’re up for the task now?”
Ye Hancheng nodded, “It’s all about serving the people.”
Jiang Yue had experienced more in life than these young boys. She could see right through Ye Hancheng’s schemes. She said, “Alright then, I’ll give you the chance to serve the people. Starting tomorrow, you and Wu Yu will be responsible for taking attendance during the morning run.”
Ye Hancheng: “…”
After the class meeting, Qiu Gaotiao walked over and mocked Ye Hancheng without holding back, “How does it feel to shoot yourself in the foot? Discipline committee member~”
“Get lost.” Ye Hancheng kicked him, but Qiu Gaotiao quickly dodged out of the way.
Wu Yu, resigned, said, “Brother Han, it’s bad enough you dragged me into this, but now you’ve ended up dragging yourself down too.”
Under the table, Ye Hancheng kicked the leg of Wu Yu’s chair. “Go tell Class Monitor Qin and have her cover for you for a few days.”
Wu Yu asked, “Are you really okay with making Class Monitor Qin wake up early?”
Upon hearing that, Ye Hancheng hesitated immediately. Of course, he wasn’t okay with it.
He ruffled his hair in frustration. “Forget it. It’ll just be the two of us.”
Better to let his wife sleep a little longer.
