After introducing himself, Lu Xiaofeng, the head teacher and math teacher of Class 3, Senior One, picked up the chalk, turned around, and wrote his name in Chinese characters on the blackboard.
"Lu Xiaofeng? Isn't that the protagonist of a kungfu novel? Hehehe," Ao Feifan grinned.
"That protagonist is probably more handsome," Shen Yitian echoed.
Gao Xinglang and Guan Xuchen couldn't help but snigger when they heard this.
At that moment, Lu Xiaofeng turned around, once again scanning the class with his sharp, eagle-like eyes. He then raised his right hand, pointed in the direction of Guan Xuchen and the other three boys. And, with a peculiar smile, he said, "The two boys in yellow plaid and in grey, stand up."
He was referring to Ao Fanfan and Shen Yitian.
The two looked at each other, before standing up very reluctantly.
"It seems you enjoy talking a lot. I'll give you a chance to introduce yourselves," Lu Xiaofeng said calmly.
The two boys hesitated for a few seconds, and Ao Feifan was the first to muster the courage to say, "I—my name is Ao Feifan. I was in Xiaoda for junior middle school. And I was on the school's martial arts team."
Lu Xiaofeng nodded, then gestured to Shen Yitian.
Shen Yitian cleared his throat and stuttered, "Hello, everyone, I—my name is Shen Yitian. I came from 54— No. 54 Middle School. And I—I'm on the basketball team. I hope we can be—be good friends."
The other students murmured in admiration, "They are both amazing."
Lu Xiaofeng raised his hand and said, "Sit down."
Then, as if he had discovered something new, he pointed at Guan Xuchen and said with a chuckle, "That boy in blue at the back, is that a doll you're holding?"
Many students in the class laughed and looked in Guan Xuchen's direction.
Guan Xuchen felt very embarrassed and quickly moved the pillow he was holding in his arms behind his back.
"Come, stand up and let everyone get to know you," Lu Xiaofeng ordered.
Guan Xuchen cast a pleading glance at Gao Xinglang, but Gao just shrugged helplessly, so Guan Xuchen had to pluck up the courage to stand up.
Lu Xiaofeng came down from the podium, walked over to Guan Xuchen's seat, and looked at the pillow on it. He teased, "Oh, it's a pillow. I thought a big boy was bringing a doll to school."
The classroom burst into another round of laughter.
Guan Xuchen felt so embarrassed that he wanted to sit down, but Lu Xiaofeng stopped him, "I haven't told you to sit down yet. Introduce yourself."
"Oh." Guan Xuchen lowered his head and whispered, "My name is Guan Xuchen..."
"Speak up! Why are you speaking like a girl? Didn't you have breakfast in the morning? You need to sound more energetic, just like me," Lu Xiaofeng said with a chuckle.
Guan Xuchen felt increasingly unnerved by this head teacher's somewhat eerie smile, which seemed almost intimidating.
At this time, Gao Xinglang whispered to him, "It's just a self-introduction. Soupy, just pretend you're hosting the English morning reading session."
"Oh." Guan Xuchen then looked up, gathered his courage, and said to Lu Xiaofeng, "My name is Guan Xuchen. I was admitted directly from Xiaoda's Junior Section. I was the English subject representative in junior middle school and I've won the first prize in the municipal English competition."
