Chapter 44 Chinese Week

Jasmine suddenly shifted her gaze because she didn’t think that Elise could be involved in the unfortunate events that had befallen her family.

She placed her bag down and took a seat at her desk.

The first lesson for the day was Chinese wherein the teacher briefly talked about Chinese Week before starting class. “Our school has started to accept registrations for Chinese Week. I hope that everyone can support this event by participating in it. This is especially so for Jasmine and Elise since you two have a strong command of the language. I reckon that you can give it a shot by signing up for it.”

After being suddenly prompted by the teacher, Jasmine took a deep breath before her lips curved upward to form a smile. Subsequently, she stood up, “Miss, I’ll enroll for the program and bring glory to our class.”

The Chinese teacher nodded with approval. “That sounds great. Jasmine’s enthusiasm should be noted and something that everyone should learn from as well.”

Soon after that, the teacher glanced toward Elise, whose head was lowered, and asked, “How about you, Elise? Would you like to enroll?

Elise gradually lifted her head and met her teacher’s gaze. She had intended to reject the request but as soon as she noted Jasmine’s enthusiasm, Elise changed her mind. After all, life was quite boring and it would be wonderful to annoy a certain someone, so she responded, “Sure, I would be more than happy to enroll.”

Upon hearing Elise’s reply, the Chinese teacher beamed widely. “Awesome! I wish you guys luck and hopefully, you’ll be able to attain great results in the competition. I also have some materials at home that will help to improve your listening skills. I’ll compile it and give it to you soon. Once you’ve come up with your speech, I can proofread it for you.”

It was quite evident that the teacher had treated Elise like her own daughter. Jasmine was initially grinning from ear to ear, but she became downcast and sat in her seat. She glanced at Elise with tightly clenched fists while vowing, I’m definitely going to win this competition! No one else can stand in my way!

Once their class had ended, Jasmine’s sidekicks approached her. “Jasmine, you’re so talented to have been selected for the competition! I’m so envious of you!”

“Yeah, Jasmine! You’re the best in this subject in our class. I’m sure that you’ll be able to shine and achieve a great result in the competition!”
