GBP Chapter 733 attracted the teacher.
Chapter 733 attracted the teacher.
When the teacher scolded Wang Chenchen, he lowered his head and shed tears.
He bit his lip until it bled but didn't make a sound. Thinking about his ordeal, the young female teacher felt a surge of maternal love and couldn't bear it.
From the few words she knew, she could piece together the general outline of the story.
She felt that the child was truly innocent in this situation.
He was unaware that his father was someone else.
He had always enjoyed the honor of being the orphan of a martyr, but one day things suddenly changed.
Can we blame him? It's all the adults' fault.
"Sigh!" The teacher sighed and said, "Let's go, I'll go home with you tonight."
Wang Chenchen was terrified, "My Uncle Lu will...will..."
"It's okay, don't be afraid, the teacher will talk to him."
So, after Lu Jiangting's parents failed to show up when asked, the teacher made a home visit.
The teacher asked Wang Chenchen to wait for her for a while, and only went to her house with Wang Chenchen after she finished her work.
He came home much later than usual today, but Lu Jiangting didn't care at all.
He cleaned the room like a puppet and cooked a meal that was hard to describe.
He didn't even notice the sound of someone entering the house; he was still chopping vegetables.
Wang Chenchen put down her schoolbag and said to the person in the kitchen, "Uncle Lu, the teacher is here."
Lu Jiangting paused in his chopping motion and turned his head.
It seems the teacher has indeed arrived.
The impatience in his eyes flashed by in an instant.
"Chenchen's parent, I heard you've been very busy, so I took some time after get off work and school to visit you. I hope I haven't been too forward."
"Ah."
Lu Jiangting gave a soft "hmm".
Teacher: "Is this presumptuous, or not?"
Just as the teacher was about to speak again, Lu Jiangting said, "I am not his parent; I am only his temporary guardian."
The teacher's smile froze on her face.
She composed herself and silently considered how to bring it up.
Lu Jiangting said calmly, "Go sit in the living room first, I'll be there soon."
He was still chopping vegetables, chopping slowly and carefully.
But the potato shreds were still cut as thick as chopsticks.
Even the teacher looked on, somewhat bewildered.
However, she didn't say anything and went straight to the simple living room, where she sat on the sofa.
To save money, all the furniture was second-hand.
The sofa was already old and unwanted, but he bought it and used it for so long that it's become even more worn out.
The seat creaked as soon as the teacher sat down, startling her. She leaned back slightly, looking somewhat embarrassed.
Lu Jiangting came over after he finished cutting the potato shreds and said directly, "Teacher, please say what you want to say."
"Sigh." The teacher had already spent a long time rehearsing her prepared remarks.
“I have heard some of your story, and I feel deeply sorry for you.”
Lu Jiangting remained expressionless.
The incident has caused quite a stir; who around here doesn't know about those disgusting things?
"But no matter what, you are now Wang Chenchen's guardian. Since you have become his guardian, then... please cooperate with our teachers' work."
"Am I not cooperating? I went to the parent-teacher conference."
"Cough cough cough..." The teacher coughed a few times, thinking to himself that this was not enough.
"For example, if Wang Chenchen had a special reason for not signing this year, tomorrow Li Chenchen will also want to make special requests. If everyone makes special requests, how can we continue our work?"
Lu Jiangting: "..."
Being a teacher is quite difficult; it gave her a real headache.
She required everyone to have their parents sign off, because she was afraid that her child wouldn't dare let their parents know if they didn't do well on the test.
When she hasn't achieved any results for a long time, some students' parents will come to ask her about it.
With so many children, she couldn't possibly answer every single one of their grades in one go.
However, ever since Wang Chenchen didn't have a parent's signature and she sympathized with her once, all sorts of inexplicable excuses have started to appear in the class.
Some even lost their exam papers.
Some said their younger siblings ate the test papers, others said the cat scratched them, the dog chewed them up, their mother used them to start a fire, or their father used them to wipe his bottom... all sorts of reasons.
Being a teacher is really difficult.
After she had been talking for a while, Lu Jiangting calmly asked, "Just for that signature?"
The teacher's smile froze for a moment before she said, "Yes?"
Lu Jiangting thought of that dream and said, "I won't sign it. That's my bottom line."
The teacher's lips twitched violently.
Why would there be such a strange bottom line?
Will sticking to this bottom line make you an immortal or something?
Why make things difficult for their innocent and pitiful teachers?
The teacher took a deep breath and took out another piece of paper.
"In that case, Mr./Ms. Wang Chenchen, could you please sign here?"
Lu Jiangting took it and saw that, as the guardian, he voluntarily gave up signing any of the student Wang Chenchen's homework or test papers.
Lu Jiangting was a little annoyed, but he also felt that it was really not good to make things difficult for the teacher.
After thinking about it, I signed it anyway.
The teacher put the things away with satisfaction, thinking about Wang Chenchen's bottom-ranked grades.
As a teacher, I should have communicated with his guardian.
But seeing the parents' attitude... I thought about it and decided to forget about it.
The teacher stood up and politely said, "Mr. Lu, I'm sorry to bother you, I'll be leaving now."
"Chenchen, the teacher is leaving. Goodbye."
Wang Chenchen whispered, "Goodbye."
As soon as the teacher left, Lu Jiangting's expression turned cold.
He had a cold expression all along, and now he was even colder.
“You’re old enough to understand things now. You should know the situation at home. I have no responsibility or obligation to raise you. You’re not Jianjun’s child, and I don’t want to raise you. The only reason I’m letting you stay here today is to pay for my past mistakes. Once your mother is released from prison next year, I won’t care about you anymore. So…”
He took a deep breath, his tone becoming even colder, "So please, for the next year or so, don't cause me any trouble. Don't treat me like your parent or guardian; just treat me like a stranger who hates you. Don't come out unless it's absolutely necessary, and don't let me see you or go into your room."
Lu Jiangting pointed to the smallest room.
He has now placed Wang Chenchen in the smallest room, and he won't help him clean, do his laundry, or make his bed.
Wang Chenchen's clothes were filthy, and her room was a mess, like a doghouse.
Lu Jiangting knew that instead of pitying him, they despised him even more.
He looks nothing like Jianjun.
Jianjun is very hardworking. He started cooking and washing clothes with his grandmother when he was very young.
His clothes were worn but clean and tidy.
His books were also clean and tidy.
Then look at Wang Chenchen. Not only are her grades bad, but her handwriting in her books looks like scribbles.
At least he didn't make him wear tattered clothes, but what he was wearing was even worse than tattered clothes.
He is clearly more like Wang Jianguo—lazy and unambitious.
His personality is just like Fang Qing's; whenever he's scolded, he puts on a pitiful act, as if the other person has wronged him terribly.
Upon hearing Lu Jiangting's words, Wang Chenchen burst into tears.
