It was fine if the homeroom teacher said it once or twice, but the more he said it, the more Li Cheng hated the homeroom teacher. As a result, she did not pay much attention to the class that the homeroom teacher taught.
If the class teacher was teaching subjects that were not related to other subjects, it would be fine. At most, the results of one class would not be good. However, the class teacher was teaching mathematics. One had to know that mathematics was related to many subjects. If one did not learn mathematics well, whether it was physics or chemistry, they could suffer. Especially physics, it was really a devastating blow.
Because the homeroom teacher praised Jiujiu, Li Cheng started to hate mathematics. When you hated a subject, you naturally would not be able to learn it well. If you were not good at mathematics, it would cause your physics to deteriorate. This was a vicious cycle that could not be solved.
This deterioration was directly shown in Li Cheng's tests. For example, her grades in mathematics and physics became worse and worse.
Li Cheng also thought about tutoring after class, but it should be known that the teacher basically talked about the more important knowledge points in class, and some knowledge points were more intuitive. You might be able to understand it after reading the book, but some knowledge points were more abstract. If you didn't get a more specific explanation, you wouldn't be able to understand it even if you read the textbook dozens of times.
If Li Cheng had a good relationship with her classmates, she would be able to get more detailed explanations. However, Li Cheng's relationship with her classmates was only so-so.
She did not like those who did better than her, and she did not like those who did worse than her. As such, her situation became somewhat awkward.
As the third monthly exam came closer and closer, every time she went home, Meng Shijiang would ask her about her grades. Under this kind of pressure, Li Cheng's grades deteriorated at a visible rate.
It happened to be a long holiday before the exam this time. They took two days off in advance, so Jiujiu and Li Cheng returned home.
On the day of the holiday, everyone gathered together to eat.
Chen Heng looked at Jiujiu and asked, "Xiaoxiao, do you have confidence in getting first place in this exam?"
Jiujiu swallowed the food in her mouth and smiled as she looked at Chen Heng, "Yes."
She had been doing questions recently, and she had an advantage over Yan Senze in language. As long as she did not fail in other subjects, she would definitely get first place.
Hearing Jiujiu's confirmation, a satisfied smile appeared on Chen Heng's face. He then turned to look at Li Cheng and said, "Cheng Cheng, you have to do your best for this exam."
Compared to asking Jiujiu if she had the confidence to take first place, this question to Li Cheng was simply too casual.
Li Cheng smiled gratefully on the surface, but in fact, she was full of anger. She clenched her chopsticks so tightly that she almost broke them.
After saying this to Jiujiu and Li Cheng, Chen Heng wiped his mouth with a tissue and walked to the study.
After Chen Heng left, Jiujiu wiped her mouth and returned to her room.
Jiujiu's arrogance was written all over her face.
Looking at Jiujiu's appearance, not only Li Cheng, but even Meng Shijiang was furious.
Even if you beat Meng Shijiang to death, she would never have thought that Chen Xiao, who had remained silent like a little mute when being bullied, would actually become so powerful now.
At the thought of Jiujiu's heaven-defying results, Meng Shijiang was furious. Meng Shijiang turned her head to look at Li Cheng, who was also angered by Jiujiu, and exhorted, "Cheng Cheng, you must take the exam well this time and strive to get a good result, understand?"
Meng Shijiang had now put all her thoughts on Li Cheng. She only hoped that Li Cheng could take the exam well and get a good result to fight for her.
Because she hadn't been paying attention in class during this period of time, her grades had been regressing. Li Cheng had been called by the teacher many times to talk about studying hard and striving for good grades. Li Cheng's ears were about to grow calluses after hearing this sentence. This time, hearing it from Meng Shijiang's mouth again, Li Cheng directly shouted impatiently.
"Study hard, study hard. You only know how to make me study hard. Do you know how tired I am studying?" Li Cheng suddenly pushed the table away, stood up, and angrily ran to her room.
With a bang, Li Cheng slammed the door shut.
It wasn't until Li Cheng closed the door that Meng Shijiang came back to her senses. Her whole person was sluggish. It seemed that she didn't understand why Li Cheng suddenly had such a big reaction.
She was just kind enough to let Li Cheng study hard. Why did she have such a big reaction?
Li Cheng returned to the room and looked at the books she brought back to read. Her whole person was very irritable.
As soon as she closed her eyes, she seemed to see the teacher and classmates constantly talking in her ear about how great Chen Xiao was. As soon as she opened her eyes, she seemed to see Meng Shijiang constantly telling her that she must study hard and strive for good grades in the exam.
The more she thought about it, the more irritable Li Cheng's heart became. Especially when she thought of Jiujiu's results and her own results, her whole person was irritable to the extreme.
Everyone told her to study hard, but no one told her why studying was so difficult. The knowledge points that the teacher talked about in class were extremely complicated. She hadn't digested the content of this class yet, and the other subjects in the next class were new knowledge points.
Not only were there knowledge points that she couldn't understand even if she broke her head, but there were also homework questions that she could never finish.
Especially after she didn't listen well before, many questions she couldn't do at all. When she couldn't hand them in by the time, she would be scolded by the teacher. She could only choose to copy other students' homework.
Copying can be addictive. After a lot of times, you can't be bothered to do what you can do and just copy.
Under such a vicious cycle, Li Cheng could almost predict what kind of results she would get in this exam.
Li Cheng lay on the bed with a dull expression, staring at the ceiling in a daze.
Why was Chen Xiao studying so easily, as if he could do the questions just by flipping through the textbook, while she was clearly exhausted, but she couldn't do it.
Why? Why?
Why couldn't she work so hard, but Chen Xiao seemed to succeed just by thinking about it.
Li Cheng was not reconciled.
Li Cheng opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling quietly. As she looked, an idea suddenly appeared in her mind.
Since she couldn't do well, then Chen Xiao couldn't do well either.
The next morning, Li Cheng went out for a long time before coming back. When she came back, she went to the kitchen and took the initiative to help Meng Shijiang cook.
When Li Cheng went in to help, Meng Shijiang refused without thinking. The exam was tomorrow. How could she let Li Cheng do this?
If she had time to help her, it was better to take that time to study well.
However, as soon as Meng Shijiang refused, Li Cheng hugged her arm coquettishly. "Mom, I lost my temper with you yesterday. I'm sorry. This time, I'm apologizing to you, okay?"
