Chapter 1690: Day-Student Status Settled

Watching their dormmate leave, Fu Fu Yan Cheng sidled up to Chuxue: "How are you feeling?"

Chuxue wasn't about to fall for it: "I'm fine. Classes officially start tomorrow, and I'm a little worried whether Aunt Wei can handle things alone."

Fu Fu Yan Cheng knew she would worry: "Don't worry. Mom took three days off and said she'd go help these few days, to give Aunt Wei time to adjust."

Chuxue suddenly spoke up: "Do you have any former comrades who are decent people, discharged due to injury, with heavy family burdens and unable to do heavy work?"

Fu Fu Yan Cheng didn't know what his wife was up to, thought briefly, then nodded: "Yes."

Chuxue spoke: "Fu Bao and the others are too young. I'm afraid Aunt Wei alone can't look after them all. How about finding one more person to assist Aunt Wei, and at the same time be responsible for the triplets' safety? That way, even when we're not by their side, we can rest easier."

Fu Fu Yan Cheng heard this and felt his wife made a good point—after all, the children were growing and slowly forming their own ideas: "Alright, I'll think over the candidates and get this settled in the next few days."

As the two were talking, they saw the homeroom teacher walking ahead: "Teacher Feng."

Chuxue called out to him.

Feng Guangming heard someone calling him from behind, stopped, and turned around: "Xiao Chuxue, did you need something?"

Chuxue quickly walked a few steps forward: "Teacher Feng, I was just about to go to the office to find you."

Feng Guangming's brows knit slightly: "You needed me for something?"

Chuxue nodded lightly: "Teacher Feng, it's like this. I mentioned in class before that I have triplets at home who need looking after."

She pointed at Fu Fu Yan Cheng beside her: "My husband is in the military and quite busy with work. I'd like to apply with you for day-student status. Would that be alright?"

Feng Guangming had already been quite shocked when he heard her mention the triplets in class before.

Now hearing her say the man in military uniform beside her was her husband, he couldn't help but feel a few degrees of admiration: "Xiao Chuxue, given your special circumstances, I approve your day-student request. Come find me tomorrow to fill out the application form."

Chuxue smiled gratefully: "Teacher Feng, I'd also like to keep my assigned dorm bunk, just in case there's a storm, or some other special situation—I want to have a place to rest. Would that be alright?"

Teacher Feng nodded: "Keep using it for now. If anything special comes up, I'll come find you."

Chuxue quickly thanked him.

Fu Fu Yan Cheng beside her also wore a smile: "Teacher Feng, thank you."

Thinking she could go home tonight, a lightbulb went off in Chuxue's head. She shoved the lunchbox in her hand straight into Teacher Feng's hands: "Teacher Feng, this is the dinner my husband brought me. Since I can be a day student, let this dinner serve as a thank-you gift."

Feng Guangming had just been about to refuse when he saw Chuxue already tugging Fu Fu Yan Cheng's sleeve: "Let's go, let's go. Drop the books off at the dorm, and I'll head home with you."

Fu Fu Yan Cheng smiled indulgently: "Alright, as you say."

After speaking, he also gave Feng Guangming a nod: "Teacher Feng, then we'll be off."

Feng Guangming reached out to stop them, but the couple had already walked off with smiles on their faces.

Feng Guangming looked at the lunchbox in his hands, then at the two already walking away, and couldn't help but find it funny.

At the bottom of the dorm building, Chuxue took the books from Fu Fu Yan Cheng: "Wait here. I'll drop the books off and come down."

The moment she entered the dorm, she heard Jiang Wenxing scolding someone: "Tang Xiaoxiao, can you keep it down a little? The whole bed is shaking."

Tang Xiaoxiao's face darkened: "Jiang Wenxing, it's not that I'm being careless—the bed itself has a problem. If you think the bed shakes too much, why not ask the dorm supervisor to switch you to another dorm, or just swap out the bed altogether."
