Bring Your A Game, Mr

Bring Your A Game, Mr Chapter 262

“It’s almost time for the night self-study session. Let’s go to the classroom. We can meet the new

students in our class too.” As Addison said that, she tugged on Elise and left the hostel together. As

they arrived at their classroom, they were met with a bunch of boys who cheered upon their entrance.

One of the more daring male classmates wasted no time before he asked, “Hey, do you happen to be

in the right classroom? This is the Mathematics Faculty!”

At once, Addison retorted, “And? We are Mathematics majors.” Upon hearing that, the male classmate

was excited. “Holy moly! They’re really in our class! Finally, there are some girls! Otherwise, we’d be a

class full of monks.” With her brow raised, she asked, “Are there no other girls in this class?” The boy

then shook his head.

“We’ve only met the two of you thus far.” As he said that, he took a glance at Elise. Due to the mask

she was wearing, he couldn’t see her face clearly, but he deduced that she’d look fine too seeing that

her friend, Addison, was quite the pretty one.

After the brief conversation, the two girls got seated at their respective desks, but the attention from the

rest of the class was hard to miss. Elise might have been used to the attention and gazes, but the

same didn’t apply to Addison. The latter was obviously uncomfortable. She then nudged Elise before

saying sotto voce, “I can’t explain how, but I feel like I’m being watched like prey. If only I knew earlier, I

would have chosen to study foreign languages with Ricky.”

Tossing her a consoling look, Elise said, “Don’t worry! I don’t think it will just be the two of us girls in this

class. There must be other girls who aren’t here yet.” At once, Addison’s face lit up. “Really?” “I think

so.” Just as Elise said that, four girls came through the classroom door. At that moment, the cheer from

the class got even louder. Seeing that, Elise raised her brow and said, “See! Aren’t these girls in our

class?” Hearing that, Addison seemed to be more at ease.

“That’s great! Really great!” In no time, new students slowly filled the classroom. Addison counted the

number of female students in this class and found there were more than 10 of them which took up

around 30 percent of the class. It was a typical class where there were more males than females. While

Elise was fully concentrating on writing on her old exercise book, the rest of the students were busy

chatting away, making her stick out like a sore thumb.

When the homeroom teacher came in, the class quickly quieted down. The teacher was a middle-aged

man. After taking a glance at the class, he finally stopped his gaze on Elise. It lasted for 3 seconds

before he moved his gaze away. “Students, welcome to Tissote University…” After briefing the students

with some precautionary and introductory matters, half an hour had passed. By then, Elise had already

solved a page of questions and was about to work on the next page. However, the homeroom teacher

who was standing on the stage had suddenly called out to her. “Is Elise Sinclair here?”

The students in the class unanimously gasped after hearing that. Obviously, they were familiar with that

name. “The Elise Sinclair who excelled in the college entrance examination?” Some students started

whispering among themselves. Another student said, “It should be! Her results must be more than

enough to enter Tissote University. Not to mention, the chances of someone having the same name

with grades as good must be slim.”

Hearing that the teacher called for her, Elise raised her hand. “Elise, can you please come to my office?

Students, please study on your own in the class. You can also choose to read at the library.” After

saying that, the homeroom teacher left. Feeling curious, Elise put down the pencil in her hand and

closed the exercise book before following suit. In the office, the homeroom teacher no longer wore the

strict image that he had back in the classroom. He gave Elise a warm smile. “Elise, I’m happy that

you’re in the Mathematics Faculty of Tissote University.

If there’s anything you need, you can always let me know. I will be glad to help out.” “Thank you for the

kind offer, sir.” “Don’t mention it. It’s an honor that such a top student is in my class. Aside from that,

there’ll be an opening ceremony for the new semester tomorrow. According to the university’s

arrangement, you will be giving a speech as the top student representative. Do prepare a speech

tonight and take it easy on stage tomorrow.” With a nod, she replied, “Alright.” At this moment, the

office’s door was knocked on, and an elderly man who seemed to be in his sixties came in.

Seeing that, the homeroom teacher took the lead to greet him. “Professor Merlin, why have you come?”

With a chuckle, the professor said, “I’ve come to see the new blood in our Mathematics Faculty. This

must be the legendary Elise Sinclair.” The professor looked at Elise. His hair was half white, but he

seemed to be rather energetic. At once, she said, “Nice to meet you, Professor Merlin. I’m Elise

Sinclair.” “This young girl is quite impressive. With such a talent in Mathematics at this age, she has

great potential in the future!” “You flatter me, Professor Merlin.

I’m just an ordinary student.” Hearing that, the professor was very glad in her response. After all, it was

very rare for someone at her level to be so humble. “Elise, I’m here today to discuss something with

you.” Professor Merlin took a glance at her homeroom teacher at the side before saying in a serious

manner which made her put on a look of curiosity. “The thing is, I’ve been doing scientific research with

a team for the past two years.

I was wondering if you’re willing to join us in this research.” After he said that, even the homeroom

teacher seemed surprised to hear that. For context, Professor Merlin was a senior teacher at the

university. The topics that he conducted research on were mostly hot topics in the country. Even the

homeroom teacher himself didn’t get the chance to join. However, Elise, a first-year freshman, had

actually been chosen by Professor Merlin.

“Professor Merlin, are you serious? She’s just a first-year freshman after all!” The homeroom teacher

couldn’t help but voice out his question. The professor then smiled before saying, “That’s exactly why I

chose her. Since she’s young, I have high hopes for her! Our team can’t always be supported by old

people like us. We should add some fresh blood, shouldn’t we? What do you think, Elise?” It was only

then that she snapped out of her trance.

She knew how important the research topics that the professor mentioned were, and she knew how

rare a chance like this to come by was. However… “I’m sorry, Professor Merlin.

I’m afraid that I can’t join your team.” As soon as she finished saying that, the huge office fell silent.

Even the smile on Professor Merlin’s face faltered a little. Thinking that she might not understand how

big this was, he continued, “If you have any questions or dilemma, you can tell me. Or if you need time,

we can understand. I’m willing to give you some time to consider it.

How about you consider this for two days before you give me an answer?” At this moment, she opened

her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but the professor beat her to it. “That’s all for today! I’m

in no rush anyway. You can take your time and think about it. When you’ve decided, you can come

back to me.”

Needless to say, she understood what he meant. Though she was hesitant, she nodded in the end.

“Alright, I’ll think it through.” Seeing that her answer had changed, the professor seemed more

satisfied. “Alright!

You can go back now! You still have to give a speech at the opening ceremony for the beginning of the

semester. Write the speech well.” Nodding her head, she replied, “I’ll take my leave then, Professor

Merlin, sir.” After saying that, she left the teachers’ office.
