Lilly shook her head at first and nodded, “Yes!”
She could not tell the truth because she did not want to see the teacher run out of the toilet half-naked again.
The female teacher laughed at Lilly’s cute reaction. She asked, “Are you going to sit with your brother?”
Josh turned around. The teacher was wondering if she should move the person sitting beside Josh to another seat. However, Lilly pointed at the empty seat beside Cheryl and said, “Teacher, I want to sit beside Cheryl.”
The teacher said, “Oh, right. The student beside Cheryl is absent today.”
Pablo could not believe their luck.
Cheryl did not look happy because she did not want to sit beside Lilly. She still remembered how Lilly poured Waldorf salad on her during the camp. However, a female student sitting in front of Cheryl turned around and said, “Wow, Cheryl! Besides the Shaw family, you are close to the Crawford family as well?”
Otherwise, there was no other reason for Cheryl to sit beside her.
Cheryl no longer felt unhappy. Her vanity had been satisfied. She smiled and said, “Not really, I just went to a camp with Lilly previously.”
“Lilly, come here,” Cheryl pointed to the chair beside her.
Lilly ran over to Cheryl’s side while carrying her schoolbag and sat down.
Before Cheryl could approach Lilly, she saw her getting a tortoise out of her bag and putting it on its back at the table. Then, Lilly took out a parrot and stuffed it inside the drawer. Polly ran and hid inside the drawer.
Everyone in the cla*s was dumbfounded, and Josh covered his face in embarra*sment.
“Lilly, this is…” asked the teacher.
Lilly said, “Don’t worry, Teacher. The tortoise doesn’t speak. Polly will be quiet as well. They will be lonely when I’m in the academy, so they want to follow me.”
The female teacher was baffled. She wondered how animals or even a child such as Tilly knew what loneliness was.
However, the teacher only said with a smile, “Lilly, this is a cla*sroom. I need to take them away if the tortoise or the parrot affects the cla*s. Is that fine?”
That morning, the board of the academy had an emergency meeting before cla*s.
The Crawford family was Animaux Private Academy’s biggest sponsor. Before it became famous, it needed a billion dollars to invest in academic buildings and hire reputable teachers. The Crawford family alone invested 800 million dollars in the academy. That was why the headmaster agreed immediately when Anthony asked the academy to take care of his niece.
The teacher could not really do anything when she saw the tortoise sitting there and the parrot was quiet inside the drawer. The teacher had no choice but to begin teaching.
Pablo floated on one side and stared at the malignant spirit above Cheryl’s head. The malignant spirit also looked at Pablo cautiously. She could not sense any intent from Pablo, so she wondered what Pablo was.
Pablo introduced the malignant spirit to Tilly, “This is a vanity spirit. Tulip, ask Cheryl to meet at the forest. We will capture her. Tell her to meet you in the forest after school.”
Lilly nodded.
Lilly approached Cheryl and said seriously, “Don’t go after school. See you in the forest.”
Cheryl was shocked and asked, “What?”
After the first lesson, the teacher walked towards Lilly and was surprised to see how serious she was as if she really came to study.
The teacher walked towards Lilly and asked, “Lilly, do you understand the question?”
She did not expect Lilly to understand, but she saw Lilly nod. “I understand. The shop brought in 50 baskets of fruit. It sold 12 baskets in the morning and 14 baskets in the afternoon. The answer of baskets left remaining is 24 baskets. A worker is repairing a stretch of a 100-meter road. He repaired 64 meters on the first day. With 6 days remaining, how many meters does he need to repair on average? The answer is 6 meters.
The teacher was surprised, “Lilly, you are so amazing!”
Lilly was confused and asked, “Teacher. If the worker can fix 64 meters in a day, why does he only fix 6 meters every day? Can’t he fix them all in one day?”
The teacher was baffled. She could not answer Lilly’s question. Then, the mathematics teacher came in and asked, “Does Lilly understand what the teacher is saying?”
Lilly nodded and said, “I do.” Lilly did not know why she was asked such a question.
The teacher introduced Lilly to the mathematics teacher who visited, “Lilly was amazing. She remembers everything that has been taught…” She would never admit that she was trying to ignore Lilly’s question. It was embarra*sing that she could not answer a four-year-old’s question.
The mathematics teacher was interested and asked, “Is that so? Let me ask you a question then…”
“A child had 50 lollipops, 70 marshmallows, and 100 gummies in his pocket. After eating 50 lollipops, 60 marshmallows and 100 gummies, which candy does the child still have right now?”
Lilly shook her head, “The child will have diabetes.”
Grandpa told Lilly Granny had diabetes because she ate too many sweets.
Both the teachers were stunned before laughing out loud because there was nothing wrong with Lilly’s answer.
Cheryl was not happy to see both the teachers laughing at Lilly’s answer. She smiled and said, “Lilly, you’re wrong. Both lollipops and gummies have been eaten. There are only 10 marshmallows left. Not diabetes.”
Cheryl purposely showed off her calculating skills and looked at the teachers, hoping they would praise her. However, the teachers only focused on Lilly and ignored Cheryl.
The fatty beside her was laughing so loud, “Haha! A child getting diabetes. That’s so funny!”
All the children started laughing as well. They surrounded Lilly and tried to get her to speak because they found it interesting.
Cheryl felt awkward and embarra*sed when she saw Lilly being loved by everyone else, while she was being ignored.
The two teachers patted Lilly’s head before going out of the cla*sroom.
All the students surrounded Lilly and looked at the tortoise on her table.
“Lilly, why did you bring a tortoise? Why did you make it lie down this way?”
Lilly explained, “If I turn it over, the tortoise will run away.”
Someone else asked, “What about your little parrot?”
Lilly squatted down and looked inside her drawer. She said while looking at Polly, “Polly is inside. It is afraid of strangers.”
“When will it not feel afraid?”
“Does it eat bread?”
“It’s a green parrot. I heard they are smart.”
All the children squatted down and peeked inside the drawer to see the parrot. They were curious and excited.
Lilly became the cla*s’s popular figure in an instant. Cheryl, who was sitting beside her, was neglected. It made her so angry. Everyone liked talking to her after cla*s in the past. Now, all of them surrounded Lilly instead.
Besides Cheryl, Josh was also not happy. Lilly was supposed to be an annoying sister. When he saw that she did not look for him after being surrounded, he was upset. He slammed his book on the table.
Cheryl heard it and turned to walk towards Josh.
“Josh, everyone likes Lilly… Lilly speaks in an interesting way. Unlike me who is boring…”
Cheryl wanted Josh to say that he liked her more compared to Lilly. However, Josh immediately exposed her. “What? Stop pretending and be fake in front of me.
Cheryl started tearing up, “Josh, how can you say that?”
Josh said impatiently, “Get lost!” He was different from his brother, Drake, who would at least be a little gentler.
During the camp, Cheryl approached his brother, and he still acted politely toward her. Josh thought he was unmanly.
Josh thought a real man should act like him…
He stared at Cheryl who still would not leave and said, “Are you going to leave? Otherwise, I’m going to hit you.”
Cheryl left while feeling aggrieved. That was why she did not like to approach Josh. When she returned to her seat, she saw more people surrounding Lilly. All of them were trying to play with Lilly. Fatty even took her seat.
Coincidentally, the bell for the next lesson rang. Cheryl walked over and said, “It’s time for cla*s. Go back to your seats, everyone!”
All the students went back to their seats reluctantly. Lilly was very happy. Within 10 minutes after cla*s had ended, she already made so many friends.
The next lesson was Language Arts. Lilly could not understand a thing. Then, she felt someone kicking her chair. She turned around and saw a boy pa*sing her a note.
