Lin Hao
Hearing Xia Huanhuan's words, Xia Junshan and Nan Li both widened their eyes, their faces full of surprise. Xia Junshan hurried over in quick strides, crouched down, his gaze full of concern, and asked Xia Huanhuan, "Huanhuan, why didn't you tell Mom and Dad about these things at home? If you have difficulties, you should tell us."
Nan Li also said anxiously, "That's right, Huanhuan, you didn't say a word, how would we know you ran into such a big problem in the Gold Medal Class?"
Xia Huanhuan kept her head down, twisting the corner of her clothes with her fingers, and said softly, "I didn't dare say it at home, afraid you'd be angry."
Xia Junshan and Nan Li exchanged a glance, both falling silent. Their hearts were full of guilt; they never expected the child to have such worries.
After a while, Nan Li looked at Xia Huanhuan with heartache, her eyes full of determination, and said, "Then we won't go to the Gold Medal Class anymore, Huanhuan. We won't suffer this. Studying is important, but your happiness is more important."
Tian Yulan, hearing this from the side, couldn't help but frown and say, "A bit of pressure is normal, after all, to get good grades you have to trade time and energy. But Huanhuan is a girl; she can directly advance to Fengsai Junior High in the future, so there's no need to put so much pressure on the child."
Nan Li was unhappy as soon as she heard this, raising an eyebrow and retorting, "What's wrong with being a girl? Can't girls pursue good grades? In the future, our family's Chaochao—we won't put that much pressure on him either; a child's happiness is most important, no need to force the child into a study machine."
Tian Yulan immediately sneered upon hearing this: "Then why did you fight tooth and nail to get into the Gold Medal Class back then?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Peng quickly pulled Tian Yulan and said in a low voice, "Yulan, don't talk nonsense."
Tian Yulan also realized she had misspoken, biting her lip in annoyance; the relationship that had just eased was made stiff again by her.
Hearing Tian Yulan's sarcastic mockery, Nan Li immediately lost face.
After all, getting into the Gold Medal Class back then was indeed something their family fought hard for, and now saying such things inevitably felt like slapping their own faces.
So Nan Li pulled the two children and prepared to go home; Nan Jianlong quickly stood up and said anxiously, "Lili, don't be angry, let's talk nicely."
Xia Junshan also hurried to persuade, "Lili, don't be impulsive, let's discuss it properly."
Yan Peng also said, "Sister, Yulan didn't mean it that way; don't take it to heart."
But Nan Li simply wouldn't listen; in her heart, she had always looked down on Tian Yulan and her mother Cai Juying.
She believed they were the culprits who destroyed her happy family, and now being insulted to her face by her father's mistress's daughter—she couldn't stay another moment.
She tightly held the children's hands, her face grim, and left without looking back.
Nan Jianlong sighed helplessly, watching Nan Li's departing back, his heart full of guilt and helplessness.
Xia Junshan could only shake his head helplessly and follow after Nan Li and the children.
Yan Peng glanced at Tian Yulan and said reproachfully, "Look at you, you've made a mess of this."
Tian Yulan also felt wronged and muttered, "I didn't do it on purpose."
When Cai Juying came out of the kitchen carrying dishes, she saw the living room was empty; Nan Li's family had already left.
Cai Juying looked completely baffled, the plate in her hand almost slipping.
She turned to look at Tian Yulan's family of three sitting on the sofa; they were also full of embarrassment. Cai Juying asked cautiously, "What happened? Why did everyone leave?"
Tian Yulan sighed helplessly and said nothing.
Yan Peng shook his head, not knowing what to say.
Nan Jianlong also turned back to the study and closed the door with a "bang," leaving Tian Yulan's family of three awkwardly in the living room.
On the way back, Xia Huanhuan kept her head down, not daring to speak again.
The atmosphere in the car was very oppressive. Nan Li sat in the passenger seat, silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Huanhuan, how can you not fight for yourself? You can't even handle one tutoring class, yet Yan Ziyou attended so many tutoring classes without saying anything—do you still want to come in last in every exam?"
Xia Huanhuan was so frightened she trembled all over, tears instantly welling up, and she cried, "Mom, sorry, I was wrong; I'll definitely study hard from now on."
Seeing this, Xia Junshan hurried to coax the mother and daughter, saying, "Lili, don't be so harsh on the child; Huanhuan isn't having it easy either. Huanhuan, don't cry; let's think of a solution together."
Finally, they decided to go to the tutoring class tomorrow to talk to the teacher. Xia Junshan said, "We'll go communicate with the teacher and see if we can find a better solution."
Nan Li nodded without speaking, but her expression eased a little. Xia Huanhuan also stopped crying.
The next day, Xia Junshan and Nan Li took leave in the afternoon and arrived at Zeshu Tutoring Center with anxious hearts.
They saw Wang Laoshi's figure and hurried forward.
Nan Li spoke first, her tone carrying a hint of anxiety: "Wang Laoshi, hello. We are Huanhuan's parents, and we'd like to talk to you about Huanhuan's situation in class."
Xia Junshan also nodded beside them.
Wang Laoshi led them into the office; after hearing their purpose, he slightly frowned and directly said, "If the child can't keep up with the pace, I suggest you change to another teacher or tutoring class. After all, Huanhuan was forced in back then; students who don't meet the admission requirements definitely can't keep up. I can't do anything about this situation now."
Hearing this, Nan Li's heart surged with anger, but she still tried her best to restrain her emotions and said, "Wang Laoshi, can't you think of a way? Huanhuan works very hard, and we parents also hope she can receive better education in the Gold Medal Class."
Xia Junshan also hurried to say, "That's right, Wang Laoshi. We know Huanhuan's foundation might be a bit weak, but we believe she has potential; as long as you give her more guidance and help, she will definitely be able to keep up."
Wang Laoshi was unmoved, shook his head, and said, "It's not that I don't want to help; I really have limited energy. Moreover, I can't affect the teaching pace of the whole class for one student. You'd better think of another way." After saying this, he turned and left to teach class; after all, Manager Cui couldn't publicize Huanhuan's connections everywhere, so Wang Laoshi didn't know how Huanhuan got into the Gold Medal Class.
Watching Wang Laoshi's departing back, Nan Li and Xia Junshan were full of helplessness and disappointment in their hearts.
They finally understood the difference between tutoring class teachers and school teachers. Xia Junshan sighed and said, "Sigh, this tutoring class is just for money; it definitely won't care about students' growth like school teachers do."
Nan Li also nodded and said, "It seems we need to reconsider Huanhuan's study arrangements. How about you go find your junior apprentice brother Zhong Yi to try?"
Xia Junshan was stunned; after all, just two days ago Nan Li had told Xia Junshan to stay away from Zhong Yi, and now she was asking him to go find Zhong Yi.
