"Alright, I trust that you'll make it happen." Teacher Ma smiled, folded the test paper, and handed it to her.
This small gesture made Yu Zhi easily change her opinion of him.
She still vividly remembered last time when she was punished to stand for sleeping in class; she thought this teacher was far too strict, his tone sharp and harsh, and never once had she seen him act kindly or gentle.
But now, upon reconsideration, his strictness had merely been for the sake of ensuring that every student who passed through Shengde's doors would step into their youth without regrets.
"Thank you." Yu Zhi held onto the corner of the test paper and returned him a faint smile.
After Teacher Ma finished handing out all the papers and picked up a piece of chalk to start writing on the blackboard, Yu Zhi, for the first time, focused entirely on the lecture without distractions.
