Sir You Don’t Know Your Wife - Season 3 Episode 20

Janet had neglected the studies of The Beasts recently. Although the four of them were well-trained physically, they should keep up with their studies too because having good academic results would be a plus point. “These are some mock test papers for the four of you. Complete it and I will go through it before fixing up a study schedule for you guys.”

Their faces crumpled in displeasure as soon as they heard her. “But Boss…”

“Do it! There’s no room for negotiation!”

The Beasts flashed her a simpering smile and one of them said, “Boss, we aren’t good at studying. Lara never taught us during the time we were in Markovia.”

Janet shot them an icy look. Although their basics were weak, they were a bunch of smart kids and if they put their heart to it, she was sure they would be able to get admitted into a university. She said in a level voice, “I won’t have Lee pull his strings in order to sneak you guys into a university. If you guys fail to gain admission, all of you are going to pack up and go back to Markovia.”

Upon hearing that, they immediately started to do the mock test paper, albeit extremely reluctantly. There was hardly any question they knew how to answer despite having flipped through the test paper back and forth until it was crumpled.

Fifteen minutes later, Janet started marking their papers with a somber expression. People who didn’t know The Beasts would assume they stopped studying after primary school considering they had left the entire paper blank except getting some of the multiple choice questions correct.

It was only then was Janet able to empathize with teachers who had to mark so many test papers. Not long after, she churned out a study schedule and placed it on their desks. “Look at it carefully. I’ll hire a home tutor for you guys and I’ll check your progress once a week, alright?”

Their faces turned pale immediately. Did they have to go back to sitting down quietly and studying after being so used to physical training? The number of times they answered a test paper could be counted on one hand—not to mention that they had yet to touch the textbooks they were given this semester.

Yet now, their Boss wanted them to study and she even wanted to check their progress regularly. Come to think of it, they would rather be humiliated for their illiteracy than being forced to study.

Meanwhile, Daisy ended her period with Class F and walked into the office looking depressed. At the sight of her, the other teachers quickly huddled together and started whispering among themselves.

“Ha! I have to say the principal’s decision is brilliant! It’s a perfect source of motivation for the senior year students!”

“Exactly. We shouldn’t be too worried because we have Class F to bring up the rear!”

“I reckon this time our school doesn’t even have to hire cleaners.”

“You’re right! I’m sure the students of Class F will be sent to clean the toilets.”

“After all, they should contribute something to our school since they aren’t interested in studying.”

Although the teachers were talking in barely audible voices, Daisy, as observant as she was, could sense that they were talking about her. Looking lost, she sat down at her desk. Suddenly, Lilian placed a piece of paper which contained the plan drafted by the principal on Daisy’s desk. “The principle wanted me to pass this to you. It’s the plan to improve the college entrance exam result for our students.”

Daisy took it over and gave it a fleeting glance before putting it back on her desk. Seeing how unruffled she was in response to the plan, the other teachers in the office couldn’t help but taunt, “Miss Daisy, aren’t you worried that you might have to clean the toilets?”

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Daisy spun around and asked.

Lilian snorted disdainfully. “Just take a look at what’s written in the last column of the table.”

Daisy took the plan and glanced at the last column on which it was written: ‘The last trial examination for the college entrance examination will be held next month. The class that ranks at the bottom in the trial exam result will have to clean the school’s toilets.’

Daisy’s hands trembled as she read the words. The principal was being too unreasonable in issuing such a rule! Why did the students with poor results deserve such a punishment? She had to have a talk with the principal. Putting down the plan on her desk, Daisy stormed out of the office furiously.

The other teachers watched as she left and couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

“Daisy only has herself to blame for her rotten luck; there’s no way she can turn the tide.”

“Ha! Actually there could’ve been a glimmer of hope for her before but with the addition of Janet and the four hopeless students, she should start making preparations to clean the toilets now.”

“The more you talk about it, the more I look forward to seeing her brushing the toilet bowls!”

Listening to what they said, Lilian curled the corners of her lips upward into a smirk and gloated, “Serves you right!”

Meanwhile in Class A.
