Chapter 621: Witnessing a celebrity's appearance!

Translator: Legge Editor: Legge

Ding ding dang lang.

The bells went off and signaled the end of the math class.

But in the classroom of second grade, class one, there were no signs that the class had already ended. Everyone was still talking with excitement. After the period was over, students and teachers of the adjacent classrooms also came over after hearing news of the commotion. Many people came to take a look at the celebrity and wanted to see for themselves just how Zhang Ye looked like in real life.

"Look, it's Zhang Ye!"

"I know him, I know him!"

"Aiyo, it's really him! My little brother likes him very much!"

"Why did he come to our school? I can finally see him in person!"

"I think he came here last year too. There was hearsay that he's a relative of one of our students in the second grade."

"He looks just the same as he does on television."

"Everyone says that Zhang Ye only has average looks, but why do I think that he's not bad at all?"

Teachers were human too, especially those female teachers, who were very gossipy as well.

At this moment, Li Jiaxing went up to the rostrum and said excitedly to the students, "Students! Students! All of you might not quite understand, but let me introduce him to everyone. This teacher is Zhang Ye." He gestured politely towards the direction where Zhang Ye was and continued, "Some of you or your parents might have seen him on the news, and some of you might not understand what is going on, but I'm going to tell all of you about it now. Some time ago, Teacher Zhang Ye was the person who solved the mathematical conjecture that had troubled the mathematics world for several decades. He brought us glory, dignity and honor, and is our country's most outstanding young mathematician! He's also one of the top mathematicians in the global mathematics field!"

With every claim made by the teacher, the children felt impressed over and over again.

"Ah?"

"Is that true?"

"He's that great?"

"Chenchen, your guardian is so cool!"

The students clapped wildly.

Chenchen calmly said, "Yes, he's passable."

But Zhang Ye waved it off and said, "Teacher Li, you are too generous with your praise. I'm not that great. It's just that everyone has exaggerated me. I'm only a simple mathematician." He was playing it cool! It was too great of an act! Zhang Ye thought to himself about his false modesty, but maintained his tone in a "low-key" manner by sounding very humble.

"Teacher Zhang is being too modest." Li Jiaxing said, "Students, I hereby apologize to everyone. Just now during lunchtime, I did not consider the issue properly and the thought process was not tweaked well enough for you all. As a result, it caused everyone to fail to understand the logic of the solution and yet I thought that it was because you all were not being serious and attentive in class. I even lost my temper at Chenchen, therefore I would like to apologize and also thank Teacher Zhang. It was Teacher Zhang who had enlightened me. In the handling of our students' education problem and teaching methods, there are still many things that I have to learn. On top of that, there are also many things for me to learn from Teacher Zhang! From today onwards, I'll strictly demand more from myself and adjust my way of teaching."
