DCBS: Chapter 32

The next day, Pei Qingyuan arrived at school early in order to avoid Luo Zhichang, who was very lazy at work.

During the break, some students curious about new things came to chat with his watch from time to time. Then everyone knew that this mechanical male voice was named Xiao Mei.

“Xiao Mei, good morning!”

“Human, good morning.”

“I ate soy milk and fried dough sticks. What did you eat?”

Xiao Mei was very humorous. “I ate high school students who got up early to eat soy milk and fried dough sticks.”

“What about me? I ate a big meat bun!”

“Um.” Xiao Mei’s mechanical tone pause. “It is enough for me to eat only one high school student every morning. I can’t overeat.”

“Hahaha, Xiao Mei is so funny when he speaks!”

“Get out of the way, it is my turn!”

Pei Qingyuan read a book calmly in the hustle and bustle, like a zookeeper who was accustomed to seeing many storms. He was fine as long as Xiao Mei didn’t leave his sight.

The 2nd High School forbade students from bringing mobile phones but this wasn’t strictly controlled. There were also no requirements for other electronic products as long as they weren’t brought into the examination room.

Pei Qingyuan had good grades and was very measured. He didn’t use the smart watch during class so the teachers didn’t make things difficult for him.

The lively Xiao Mei tea party continued until the head teacher Zhou Fang appeared outside the classroom. She looked inside and beckoned to Pei Qingyuan, indicating for him to come out.

“Xiao Pei, I have something to say to you.”

In the teacher’s office where there was no one else, Zhou Fang asked Pei Qingyuan to sit down and struggled for a while before speaking.

Yesterday, she was smiling all over because she was overjoyed by the outstanding monthly exam results of the students in her class. But today, her expression was a bit complicated.

“Just now, the school leaders informed us that students from our 2nd High School were invited to the campus cultural exchange week of Chengde Private High School this month.”

Chengde had deep pockets and a very high teaching level. For every cultural exchange week, they would invite outstanding students from some key high schools inside and outside the province. The 2nd High School had never been selected.

Originally, Zhou Fang should’ve felt happy when she heard the news.

However, she knew that Pei Qingyuan had transferred from Chengde before.

Pei Qingyuan was the best student in the third year of the 2nd High School. According to the screening requirements of Chengde for outstanding students and the school’s idea of competing for glory, they would definitely have Pei Qingyuan go.

Zhou Fang remembered the treatment that Pei Qingyuan got when he first transferred and was always a bit worried that he would encounter something bad after going to Chengde for the exchange.

Therefore, she said in a soft tone, “The time is set for the end of the month. It will last for three days. You will eat and live with students from Chengde and other invited schools, attend classes together and participate in some activities together. Do you want to go?”

Pei Qingyuan listened and shook his head without hesitation. “I don’t want to go.”

He had been in Chengde for two years and was often entrusted with important tasks during the culture week. He was the main force participating in the various activities that competed with students from other schools and was well aware of Chengde’s criteria for selecting the exchange schools.
