"Teacher Qi, since you have time now, why not take a look at this child's abilities?"
"This... is it okay?"
If it were possible, she would be happy to!
This way, she wouldn't have another one who needed special attention...
If there's one, there will be two. How could she train properly in the following days!
"It's fine! Why wouldn't it be fine!" Jin Qiong's words were exceptionally confident.
She was actually hoping that Qi Yun would "make things difficult" for them immediately!
This way, it would be even more justifiable for Qiu Xi to join the training.
They were all mid-term transfers, and after all, Xiao Xi was truly capable and a solid pillar.
"Alright!" Qi Yun finally relented.
But she changed the subject, her tone still somewhat firm, "But we've agreed on this one!"
"It's different from Gu Rou. You can't be like Teacher Xie. If she doesn't pass, I won't take her!"
"You can handle your other training as you see fit, but with me, it has to be this way!"
One person had already angered her before her; she couldn't have another one!
"Alright." Jin Qiong looked at Qi Yun's expression, her brows furrowing and her mouth twitching. It seemed that the "transfer student" was indeed giving her a headache.
"If you can't teach this young girl I brought, I'll take her back myself and find a teacher for her."
Qi Yun was different from them, those who specialized in training these children in professional courses. She was an external expert specially hired and was not on the original list of training teachers.
Therefore, if she refused to teach, and things escalated, they, as teachers, wouldn't have much power.
However, she had confidence in Xiao Xi. This was a child praised by Li Yunxi; she couldn't be wrong!
"Good!"
As soon as Jin Qiong gave her assurance, Qi Yun was also very decisive. She turned to look at Qiu Xi.
"Since Teacher Jin dares to say so, I'll give it a try."
"Come with me. I want to see what kind of a good seedling the person Teacher Jin highly recommends really is..."
Qiu Xi didn't pay attention to the slightly agitated tone of the teacher in front of her. She just nodded in response and followed her.
"Zhao Muchu, come here for a moment." Qi Yun called out towards the resting area in the middle of the field.
Downstairs -
"Chuchu, Teacher Qi is calling you!"
"Teacher Qi, okay."
Zhao Muchu looked up and subconsciously replied first.
Then she lowered her head and muttered to the person beside her, "Did I do anything out of line today?"
"Did I listen attentively in class?"
"And I wasn't late or left early, right???"
"Also..."
"Chuchu... I feel like if you don't go up soon, Teacher Qi's face is going to change..."
While Chu Chu was muttering, Teacher Qi in the distance had already glanced at her several times.
"Ah?!!"
Qi Yun immediately reacted.
"Yes! I'll go up first!"
"If I'm kept behind after class today, remember to bring me food..."
Zhao Muchu, muttering as she spoke, got up and walked forward quickly.
Being called up by Teacher Qi, if things went poorly, she might have to stand in front of the podium for the rest of the lesson...
And perhaps Teacher Qi would stay with her after everyone else had left...
After everyone else had left, those below saw someone being called up and were quiet for a moment before they started discussing again.
"Did Zhao Muchu have any problems today?"
"No, right..."
"Then why did Teacher Qi call her?"
"Don't know..."
"It's really strange. Usually, she calls Gu Rou up."
Gu Rou, who needed special attention, was called up in four and a half out of five of Teacher Qi's training sessions.
"Mmm." Zhao Muchu was considered one of the better students among them, her grades fluctuating but consistently placing in the top three.
"I don't know what Teacher Qi called her up for..."
"Don't understand..."
...
While those below were still muttering, Zhao Muchu had already stood in front of Qi Yun.
"Teacher Qi, you called me?"
Qi Yun nodded, "Yes, I called you for something."
"Teacher, please speak."
Qi Yun pointed to Qiu Xi beside her, "You will cooperate with her. Let's do a round of international reception etiquette."
"Okay, Teacher Qi."
Although Zhao Muchu calmly agreed, her heart was not calm at all, and she was very confused.
What Teacher Qi mentioned was a practical assessment that she had arranged for them shortly after they began learning.
The words were simple, but it involved etiquette in various situations such as standing, walking, sitting, and chatting, which was quite challenging.
Zhao Muchu didn't know why Teacher Qi would say such a thing.
However, she didn't have any extra time to let her mind wander now.
The girl on the other side had already walked over.
When Zhao Muchu first looked up, her eyes widened significantly.
She had been too preoccupied with her thoughts and listening to the teacher earlier that she hadn't noticed how beautiful this girl in front of her was!
With limited vocabulary, their minds were suddenly filled with superficial words like beauty and good looks...
"Hello, I'm Qiu Xi." Before starting, Qiu Xi greeted the girl opposite her.
"Hello... I'm Zhao Muchu."
With a gentle smile, Qiu Xi nodded, "Then I'll trouble you."
She had to thank this Teacher Qi for finding her a partner.
"No..."
Before Zhao Muchu could finish her words, she was urged by Qi Yun beside her.
"Alright, let's get ready to start."
Zhao Muchu could only nod, "Okay, Teacher Qi."
Saying that, she walked two steps to the side, gestured to Qiu Xi, and the two of them prepared to begin.
An inanimate practice, standing and conversing upon arrival, then walking and chatting before sitting down...
A series of actions that looked very strange, yet captivated the onlookers.
Not for any other reason, but the suddenly appearing girl was beautiful, and that was enough!
But how could she also be so outstanding!
Even the onlookers had this thought, let alone Zhao Muchu, who was personally practicing with Qiu Xi.
This must be what Teacher Qi called... effortless grace, right?
Unconsciously being led, she felt this was probably her best and most natural performance yet...
Throughout the entire process, she didn't feel any awkwardness or discomfort at all!
This girl is truly...
Learned very well!
This must be the student Teacher Qi truly liked, right?
Admittedly, she liked her too~
Because...
This girl, truly!
Is too outstanding!
Really...
Makes people can't help but like her~
She had been exposed to this for quite some time and considered herself quite talented, but after seeing this today, she finally understood what Teacher Qi meant.
So there really are girls like this...
At the end, Zhao Muchu walked to Qi Yun's side, "Teacher Qi, we're finished."
Just as she was waiting for Qi Yun to speak, she unexpectedly walked directly towards Qiu Xi...
