After Zhang Xue'er left, the atmosphere in the coffee shop seemed to become even more subtle.
Tian Yulan looked at Song Jie and said urgently, "Teacher Song, then what should we do next? If you transfer him to another class, will you directly arrange for Yan Ziyou to be a class cadre? That wouldn't be appropriate, would it?" She frowned slightly, her eyes holding both expectation and a trace of worry.
Song Jie took a light sip of coffee and said unhurriedly, "Tian Yulan's mother, don't be anxious. Directly arranging it would definitely be inappropriate; we need to be strategic about this."
Tian Yulan hurriedly asked, "What strategy? Teacher Song, please tell me quickly."
Song Jie set down his coffee cup and said, "Don't rush for now. Let's first finalize the class transfer matter. After Yan Ziyou adapts for a few days, the midterm exam will be right around the corner. After the exam, I'll propose a re-election of class cadres. At that time, won't Yan Ziyou's opportunity have arrived?" His tone was full of confidence, as if everything was under his control.
Tian Yulan frowned, a trace of worry appearing on her face. After a moment of silent contemplation, she said, "Teacher Song, re-electing class cadres in such a short time, Zi You's vote count might not be high, right? I'm worried other students might have opinions about him. After all, this matter caused quite a stir; Zi You's image in the students' hearts may have suffered some impact." Her heart was full of doubts, her brows tightly knit, looking very uneasy.
Song Jie smiled faintly, that smile carrying a mysterious meaning, yet he spoke no further.
His silence made Tian Yulan even more curious. Tian Yulan looked at Song Jie's smile, as if she understood something, then took out an envelope from her bag — the very one Zhang Xue'er had not accepted.
Tian Yulan handed the envelope to Song Jie and said, "Teacher Song, please take more care of Zi You's matters in the future; everything is entrusted to you."
Song Jie made a show of declining, a difficult expression on his face, and hurriedly said, "How can that work? I can't accept this. Helping students is my duty. I absolutely cannot violate my principles because of this." Although his tone was firm, his eyes kept glancing toward that envelope.
Tian Yulan hurriedly said, "Teacher Song, please accept it. This is just a token of my appreciation. You've done so much for Zi You; I'm truly grateful to you. Without your help, I wouldn't know what to do. Just consider it my thanks to you, nothing else." Her tone was filled with sincerity, making it hard to refuse.
"This..." Song Jie still hesitated somewhat. "It's really inappropriate."
Tian Yulan continued to persuade, "Teacher Song, stop declining. This is also for Zi You's good. If you accept it, my heart will be more at ease."
In the end, Song Jie still accepted the envelope. Feeling the thickness of the envelope, the smile on Song Jie's face became even more radiant.
He was secretly pleased in his heart, feeling his plan was flawless. He looked at Tian Yulan and said, "Rest assured, I'll keep Yan Ziyou's matter in mind. I'll definitely do my utmost to help him."
Hearing Song Jie's words, the stone in Tian Yulan's heart finally settled. She looked at Song Jie gratefully and said, "Teacher Song, thank you so much. I believe Zi You will get better and better with your help. I'll have to trouble you a lot in the future." Her eyes were full of expectation and hope, as if she saw her son's bright future.
Song Jie nodded and said, "This is all what I should do. As long as Zi You works hard, there will definitely be good results."
After parting with Song Jie, Tian Yulan's mood was like clearing away clouds to see the blue sky; it instantly improved a lot.
She hummed a little tune, walking home with light steps, her face glowing with a long-lost ease.
Arriving home, she pushed open the door and saw Yan Ziyou and Yan Peng sitting in the living room. Yan Ziyou was looking down at a book, while Yan Peng held a mobile phone, seemingly playing a game.
Tian Yulan rarely showed a smiling face to Yan Ziyou and Yan Peng. Yan Ziyou raised his head, saw his mother's smile, felt a bit surprised, yet also felt a trace of warmth.
Yan Peng widened his eyes even more, his face full of incredulity.
Originally, after hearing Yan Ziyou tell today's school matters, Yan Peng thought Tian Yulan would return and cause another uproar; he never expected it would be calm and peaceful, which made Yan Peng feel a bit unaccustomed.
The whole evening, the atmosphere at home was somewhat strange. Yan Peng stole glances at Tian Yulan from time to time, his heart full of doubt. Several times he wanted to speak up and ask, but feared upsetting Tian Yulan.
When it was time to sleep at night, Yan Peng truly couldn't hold back anymore.
He gently nudged Tian Yulan and asked in a low voice, "Wife, what exactly is the situation? Why are you so abnormal today?"
Tian Yulan slightly opened her eyes, glanced at Yan Peng, and said somewhat impatiently, "Nothing, just arranged a class transfer for Zi You." Her tone was very flat, as if this was just a trivial matter.
Yan Peng listened and was also quite worried, frowning as he said, "Class transfer? Why suddenly transfer classes? Will it affect the child?"
Hearing this, Tian Yulan instantly flared up and said with cold mockery, "Hmph, you actually care about your son now? Normally you only know how to play games, not caring about family matters at all. Now you come feigning concern for your son, what use is that?"
Yan Peng was rendered speechless by her words. He opened his mouth, wanting to explain, but didn't know what to say.
He sighed helplessly and said, "Wife, I know I don't do well normally. But this class transfer matter isn't a small thing; we need to consider it carefully."
Tian Yulan turned over, turning her back to Yan Peng, ignoring him. She said, "I've already decided; don't say any more."
Yan Peng lay in bed, tossing and turning, his heart full of worry.
The next morning, Zhong Yi had just arrived at work and hadn't even had time to tidy his desk when Director Wang called him to the office.
Zhong Yi felt some doubt in his heart, not knowing what Director Wang wanted with him.
He walked into Director Wang's office and saw Director Wang sitting at his desk, a trace of difficulty on his face.
Director Wang didn't quite know how to put it. Recalling his nephew Song Jie coming to his house last night to talk about the matter, he felt this Song Jie was truly unsettled, always stirring up trouble.
But there was no helping it; who asked that he was supported by his sister and brother-in-law since childhood in his studies? Now his sister only has this one son; he simply can't not care.
Director Wang deliberated a moment, then said to Zhong Yi, "Teacher Zhong, the school received an application from Yan Ziyou's parent, wanting to transfer Yan Ziyou to Class Two. Take a look — do you have any objections on your end?"
Director Wang's tone was very cautious. He was a very principled teacher, and also worried this matter would cause unnecessary trouble.
Zhong Yi froze upon hearing this, not expecting Tian Yulan to stir up a new moth so quickly. But this wasn't strange either; if she didn't stir things up, she wouldn't be Tian Yulan.
Zhong Yi frowned and said, "I have no objection to the class transfer, but why Class Two? If they dislike me as a teacher, wouldn't Class Three, Class Four, or another class be fine? Out of sight, out of mind for everyone."
Director Wang sighed and said, "Teacher Zhong, don't be angry either. The parents have their own considerations; we can't forcefully interfere. They probably considered that Class Two is just a change of environment, with the teachers basically unchanged, and as long as it's beneficial for the child's learning and growth, we should support it." Director Wang tried to ease Zhong Yi's mood; he also knew this matter made Zhong Yi very uncomfortable.
Zhong Yi was silent for a while, then said, "Alright, since the parents have already decided, I have nothing more to say. I hope Yan Ziyou can study hard in the new class." Although Zhong Yi was dissatisfied in his heart, he also knew he couldn't affect a student's development because of personal feelings.
Director Wang nodded and said, "Good, then this matter is settled. I'll arrange the relevant procedures and have Yan Ziyou transferred to Class Two as soon as possible." Having finished speaking, Director Wang signaled that Zhong Yi could leave.
