Chapter 8 I Don't Want To Listen To You
Emotions such as shyness, love, expectation and joy all disappeared, a sense of alienation and
indifference were clearly seen on her face.
She didn't like you anymore. A voice in his mind told him.
'I don't care whether she likes me or not. There are so many people who like me.' He thought! With his
face darkened, Joseph looked away, put some rice into his mouth and said in a cold voice, "although
we are in the same school, we're not the same. You are from Class M!"
'Well, I have nothing to talk with you.' Alina didn't want to argue with him anymore. 'I'd better leave as
soon as possible.' she thought.
Seeing that Joseph had ended the talk so soon, Sam was a little helpless, but after all, he was not
familiar with Alina, so he didn't talk to her any more.
All of a sudden, the four people ate quietly.
Alina didn't eat much, so she finished eating in less than ten minutes. She stood up, said goodbye to
Sam and another boy, then picked up the plate and left.
As soon as she left, Joseph couldn't help but complaining "what's wrong with you, Sam? How could
you speak for an outsider? Do you know who is your old pal, she or me? "
"I didn't! Howard, right? " Howard was the boy with wheat color skin, sitting opposite Alina.
Sensing that he was involved in this matter, Howard ate up the rest of the dishes in his bowl, stood up,
picked up the plate and said, "I've finished, you take your time." Then he left.
"Howard, why so quickly? Wait for me! " Sam hurriedly picked up the plate and followed. Sam and
Howard were not only classmates but also good friends.
Now, only Joseph was left alone. Looking at them walking away, Joseph snorted unhappily and
continued to eat.
Alina packed a bowl of multi-grain porridge when she left the canteen. When she returned to the
classroom, she saw Yana sitting on the chair. She put down the bowl and tapped Yana on the shoulder.
"Yana, did you have lunch? I brought you multi- grain porridge. "
Yana raised her head, half of her face was red because she lay on the desk. She took a look at Alina
and the porridge, felt a little embarrassed. Then she looked away and said, "I didn't ask you to buy me
any food."
Alina knew Yana wanted to eat but wasn't willing to admit. She smiled and said to Yana, "yes, you
didn't ask me to buy it. I did it voluntarily. Don't waste it, eat some."
Swallowing her saliva, Yana pretended to accept reluctantly, "well, I don't want to waste any food, so I'll
eat a little."
Alina slightly pushed the porridge towards her and said nothing. She didn't pay much attention to Yana
again in case she would feel embarrassed.
During lunch time, there were two hours off. In addition to forty minutes for lunch, all the students,
whether they were boarding students or not, must go back to the classrooms for a lunch break. This
was the rule of Ming Hua High School.
As for whether they were resting in the classroom or playing or studying, the school would not control
too much as long as other students were not disturbed.
With snacks in her hands, Mandy and two other girls walked into the classroom, talking and laughing.
When she saw Yana eating, she was surprised. Mandy walked towards Yana and said, "why are you
eating in the classroom? "
Hearing this, Yana raised her head, smiled and explained to her, "I'm not feeling well, so I didn't go to
the canteen."
After hearing what she said, Mandy raised her voice, "We are good friends. Why didn't you tell me that
you were ill?"
Mandy's voice was loud, so Yana told her to lower her voice. "I'm fine now."
"You looked good in the morning. Why did you suddenly feel uncomfortable?"
"I... I was having my period. You know... " Yana replied, winking her eyes.
Mandy understood immediately, "oh... No wonder... By the way, I bought you crisps and your favorite
spicy gluten. Here you are. " Mandy threw a package of spicy gluten to Yana's desk.
"Thank you!" Yana's eyes brightened and she even spoke in a light voice.
Mandy returned to her seat.
Alina was copying English vocabulary, she could hear their conversation very clearly.
Hearing Yana's joyful voice, Alina stopped writing. 'What a young and fearless girl! She was just on her
period and was still not feeling well, but she was about to eat spicy food.'
Yana didn't eat the porridge anymore and tried to open the spicy gluten.
"During your period, you'd better not eat spicy food, or you'll get stomachache." Having experienced
that kind of pain, Alina reminded kindly.
Staring at spicy gluten, Yana hesitated for a while, but still opened it at last.
'I've already got the pain, I don't matter it become a bit worse. Nothing could stop me eating spicy
gluten, even my period!' Yana thought.
'She is too young to care about such trifles.'
Alina thought silently. When she was young, her patents gave her advice in her favor, too. However,
she never listened to their advice.
You will never believe in other people's advice if you haven't experience it on your own. Only when you
have experienced it personally, you would feel regret not listening to advice before.
There were a dozen of sticks in one package. Yana finished them very quickly.
After that, she stared at the empty bag, longing for more.
Alina, who graduated for many years, didn't dare to take a rest at noon. She was going to take exams
next week, Alina had to work hard for her study one subject after another.
She didn't want to fail her exams. After all, she was one of the top students in the University. If she
passed the exams ranking at the bottom of the list, she would be too ashamed to see her parents.
It was more than an hour since Alina immersed herself in her study. It was not until the bell rang in the
afternoon that she yawned and stretched herself.
Before class started in the afternoon, students had ten-minute preparation time: on Monday,
Wednesday and Friday, they would read newspaper; on Tuesday and Thursday, they would sing
together.
Today was Thursday. They would sing together, with art commissioner as a lead.
The commissioner was a petite girl with an innocent look. After the bell rang, she stood up and said,
"we sing XXX today... Ready... Go! "
It was a song Alina had never heard of, so she didn't know how to sing it. She was there just to make
up the number.
At first, students in the class were singing very well, and their voices were loud and clear. After a while,
some students stopped singing. The voice in the classroom grew lower and lower. Later, there were
only the voice of the commissioner and a few girls left.
Looking at this situation, Alina half opened her mouth. She didn't know whether she should close her
mouth or continue to pretend singing?
After the song was finished, the commissioner asked angrily, "what's wrong with you all? Why didn't
you sing? If representatives from the students' union come to check and find that we are not singing,
we will lose points. "
"So what? After all, we don't want to be awarded the passed-around red flag." Some naughty boys
shouted out loud without care.
The art commissioner said, blushing with anger. "Other classes are all singing well, only our class are
sing like this. Don't you feel embarrassed?"
Cary giggled, "we are fine."
Eddie echoed, "I agree with him. You can go to KTV if you want to sing. The classroom is for learning,
right?"
Several boys also giggled, "that's right!"
The other students started to join in the conversation and soon the classroom became as noisy as a
market.
The voice of the art commissioner was drowned out by the noise. No one cared about what she was
saying. The girl felt wronged, her eyes turned red.
Alina cast a glimpse at those boys. They were exactly the same ones who had searched her desk, read
the love letter and tried to humiliate her.
"Bang!" Suddenly there was a big bang in the classroom, which startled the noisy crowd. They all
turned to look at the place where the sound came from.
It turned out that Alina had lifted a few books and slapped them on the desk.
As a boy, who is taller and stronger than a girl, don't you feel ashamed to bully a girl in your class? " Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Alina's cold voice reached everyone's ears in the classroom.
For a while, the classroom was silent, the girls were shocked. Then all of a sudden, the boys started to
retort.
"Who are you talking about? Who has bullied a girl? "
"Alaina, who do you think you are? How dare you talk about us like that?"
"You never treated yourself as a student of Class 126. It's none of your business even if we bullied
someone."
"Yes!"
"I think she has lost her mind because she was humiliated by Leo. She even thought of herself as a
superhero!"
Alina's words irritated the boys. Facing these angry boys, Alina found that the words of men were no
less harsh than those of women.
In fact, she regretted immediately after she smashed those books on the desk. But she didn't expect
that boys here would embarrass girls like this.
'If only she were the heroine. Perhaps this slap would cause self-reflection rather than anger.
However, things have already happened, it's too late to regret. Just as the saying goes, being a brave
warrior, he would never give up his dream in miserable life and would never give in facing death threat.'
Alina thought.
After the boys gave vent to their anger, they found that Alina sat still and didn't respond to them, which
made them feel frustrated.
When they lowered their voice, Alina then replied in an indifferent tone, "You criticized me all together,
isn't it bullying?"
All the boys were stunned by what she said.
Suddenly, a student sitting by the window shouted, "the student union is coming to check!"
The monitor immediately said to the commissar in charge of literature and art, "Jessie, get up now. The
inspector is here!"
With a strong sense of honor, Mary, the art commissioner quickly sang a song that everyone was
familiar with when she heard that.
Although the boys said they didn't want to sing, they still sang loudly when they heard that someone
was going to check.
When they just sang a few words, they saw a boy and a girl in school uniform passing by outside the
window with a notebook in their hands. They were taking some notes while they were walking.
Alina pretended to sing one more time since she still didn't know this song. Seeing Alina singing
without a sound, Yana was a bit surprised.
When the song was about to finish, their head teacher, Mr. Su, came in from the back door.
He stepped onto the stage and looked around. He said with a smile, "you're all good at singing. Your
voice is much louder than that of Class 125!"
"Really? Really louder than them? " Most of the students were very happy to be praised by their head
teacher.
"Why do I lie to you? There are still a few minutes before the class begin. Everyone, let's sing a song
again. Mary, you lead. "
"No problem! Mr. Su." It was the third time that Mary stood up and started to sing the song.
With the presence of the head teacher, students sang much better this time.
And it is also the third time that Alina opened her mouth and pretended to sing. 'It's really hard to live in
this world.' She thought.
The bell rang as soon as the song was finished. Alina felt that she could not pretend any longer.
There were three classes in the afternoon, physics, geography and chemistry.
In the middle of the physics class, a strong sense of drowsiness struck Alina. She squinted her eyes
and kept nodding her head. She didn't listen to a word the teacher had said.
Many students in the classroom were already lying on their desks.
The physics teacher was a short haired woman in her forties. She pulled a long face at the scene.
Dong! Dong! Dong! She knocked at the blackboard heavily. "You want to sleep? Stand up! Stop
sleeping! "
Alina was suddenly awake and her head was clear. She patted her face gently and flushed when she
thought that as an adult, she had even fallen asleep in class!
Most of the students who were sleeping were woken up by the physics teacher just now. Only a few of
them heard that but still were unwilling to sit straight.
The physics teacher didn't force them. She knocked on the blackboard and continued with her class.
Teachers were not interested in teaching Class 126, mainly because few of them were serious.
When you teach, there need to be someone who are eager to learn. If students don't listen to you
carefully and don't give you any reaction or feedback, it will be really hard to carry on with enthusiasm.
"All right. Today's class is over. Here's today's homework. The representative of physics class please
hand in today's homework before tomorrow morning's class. It's time to finish. " Then she took her
papers and left.
During lunch break, Alina didn't go to the bathroom. Now she couldn't hold on any longer and hurried
outside the classroom.
The naughty boys in the classroom looked at each other and snickered when they saw her left.
After pressing the flushing button, Alina went out of the toilet. Now she felt relaxed and went to wash
her hands.
While she was washing, another two students came over. Alina moved aside to make way for them.
'Eh? One of them is the girl who made her follow the wrong class. Her name seems to be Lily.'
"Humph!" At the sight of Alina, Lily gave a haughty Snort and turned her head away.
She still remembered what had happened in the morning. She wouldn't forgive Alina unless Alina
apologized to her.
The other girl was an ordinary girl who wore glasses, wore a ponytail and had a square face. She
glanced at Alina with disdain and then pushed her glasses up her nose. After doing that, she said to
Lily in a kind of tone as if she was giving an advice, "don't have too much contact with those students in
Class M. I'm sure you know what I mean. If you are often with a lame person, you will learn to limp."
'What a mean kids! What kind of person she would become when she grows up!' Alina thought.
Alina didn't reply but rolled her eyes. She didn't even bother to look at them. Then she left proudly.
As soon as Alina entered the classroom, she felt that many people were looking at her. She frowned
and asked, "why are you looking at me again?"
