Chapter 87: Tina, help!

Tina was in the office discussing with Jared when to schedule physical education classes. Class 22D's progress had far exceeded Tina's expectations; in just one week, they had already advanced to Grade 9 material. Velma was progressing even faster because Tina had been tutoring her one-on-one-her performance was so poor initially-but she could now handle Grade 10 material. Nevertheless, Tina decided to keep her in Grade 9 with everyone else, which meant she no longer needed individual tutoring. The students in 22D had solid foundations; they played hard, but when it came time to get serious, they were more earnest and hardworking than students from other classes.

Tina decided to introduce physical education classes earlier in the schedule, but surprisingly, the students unanimously requested to skip PE. They argued that they had missed out on too much over the years, and with less than three months until the exams, they wanted to put in their utmost effort to get into college. They didn't aspire to attend top universities; they would be content with any college. Believing that PE would take up valuable time, they pleaded to forgo the classes, but Tina refused. She insisted that while academics were important, physical fitness was essential for taking exams-without good health, all their hard work would be for naught if they collapsed on test day. Seeing her determination, the students acquiesced.

"Today is Wednesday, so let's schedule PE for the first class this afternoon and the last class on Friday morning. We'll keep this arrangement for the next two weeks, and I'll adjust as needed later," Tina confirmed the schedule for PE classes with Jared.

Jared nodded, "I have no objections."

Tina grunted in acknowledgment, then looked at his leg, "Are you sure you won't need a wheelchair anymore?"

Previously, Jared had intended to teach on his wheelchair, but now he had publicly revealed his legs were 'healed' and had stopped using a wheelchair at school. Tina didn't know exactly who Jared was, but she suspected that someone who could feign disability for years must have extraordinary backing. His decision to reveal his recovery at this time was puzzling; it was unclear whether it was good or bad. Jared also had a sister who had once been targeted with Crimson Silk. Though the poison had been neutralized, whether Jared's enemies would go after Sophia again remained uncertain. Tina had grown fond of the young girl and hoped nothing bad would happen to her. Sensing her thoughts, Jared softly said, "Don't worry, I have everything arranged."

Tina nodded without further inquiry.

Jared pursed his lips, then whispered, "Tina, my legs shouldn't have been 'healed' at this time."

Tina looked at him, waiting for him to continue.
