Tian Yulan held the exam paper, returning to the classroom with heavy steps.

At this moment, the afternoon sunlight slanted through the windows onto the desks and chairs, adding a warm tone to the originally quiet classroom.

However, Tian Yulan's mood was heavy as lead, unable to feel the slightest beauty of this sunlight.

She saw at a glance that Nan Li was sitting alone in Xia Huanhuan's seat, and Tian Yulan hurriedly said to Nan Li: "Nan Li, there's definitely a problem with this exam paper. Questions our Zi You can't do, there's no reason other kids could do them, and even get full marks. If it were just a few points difference I wouldn't say anything, but the gap is too large, the exam paper definitely has a problem." As she spoke she anxiously photographed the exam paper, as if trying to grasp some crucial evidence.

Nan Li frowned slightly, looking at Tian Yulan, her eyes revealing a trace of helplessness: "Are you being too sensitive? It's just one exam, it's normal for children's grades to fluctuate. The teacher also said this exam was quite difficult, no need to make such a fuss, right?"

Tian Yulan still refused to let it go, she held her mobile phone, quickly photographed the exam paper and sent it to a group containing only Class One parents, and righteously claimed this exam's difficulty was too great, there was definitely a problem.

Her tone was full of doubt and dissatisfaction, as if she had to win back justice for her own child.

Many parents also discussed in the group, everyone feeling disappointed and confused about their children's grades this time.

One parent said: "This exam was too difficult, my child's grades are usually pretty good, this time they actually did this poorly."

Another parent echoed: "Yeah, could there be a problem with the exam paper?"

Hearing Tian Yulan's suspicions, the parents also began to not quite believe Zhong Yi's explanation. For a while, the group atmosphere was heated, everyone expressing their views.

Tian Yulan held her mobile phone, expression anxious, talking as she walked, hurriedly leaving the classroom.

Her high heels made crisp sounds on the corridor, as if narrating her inner unease.

Nan Li saw Class Teacher Zhang Xue'er surrounded by a group of teachers up front, they either looked grave or whispered, the atmosphere appearing somewhat tense.

Nan Li thought, going forward now probably wouldn't get any answers, so she prepared to leave.

Just as Nan Li had just walked out of the classroom, Zhang Xue'er called out to her from behind.

"Huanhuan's Mom, please wait a moment." Zhang Xue'er's voice was clear and urgent.

Nan Li stopped, turned around, and saw Zhang Xue'er holding a report card walking quickly to her. Zhang Xue'er frowned slightly, expression serious as she said: "Huanhuan's Mom, Huanhuan's grades dropped too severely this time. You parents must take this seriously, after all education isn't just the school's responsibility."

Nan Li took the report card, her gaze freezing instantly. The Mathematics column starkly read 26 points.

She simply couldn't believe her eyes, hurriedly asking anxiously: "Teacher Zhang, what exactly happened? Huanhuan usually studies quite seriously, how could she suddenly do this poorly? This grade is near the bottom, right?"

Zhang Xue'er sighed lightly, explaining patiently: "Huanhuan's attention hasn't been very focused in class recently, and her homework has been completed rather carelessly. Plus this exam's questions did have a certain difficulty, maybe she hasn't fully adapted yet."

Hearing Zhang Xue'er's words, Nan Li's heart was full of worry. At this time, she also lost her usual calm. Various thoughts kept surfacing in her mind, what to do? She suddenly thought of Zhong Yi, Xia Junshan's junior fellow disciple, perhaps he could understand Huanhuan's situation. So she immediately headed toward Zhong Yi's office.

Arriving at Zhong Yi's office doorway, Nan Li saw a crowd of parents still gathered inside.

Some looked anxious, some complained in low voices. Nan Li looked at this crowded throng, really too embarrassed to squeeze in and ask about her child's grades.

Moreover, a grade like 26 points, she really couldn't bring herself to ask. She hesitated at the doorway for a moment, ultimately deciding to go home, and have her husband Xia Junshan call and ask his junior fellow disciple about the situation then.

Nan Li turned and left, steps heavy, heart full of worry for Huanhuan's future.

Tian Yulan all the way until returning home was still discussing this exam's problems with the parents in the group. She sat on the sofa, eyes fixed on the mobile phone screen, fingers constantly sliding on the screen. The living room was permeated with a tense atmosphere, as if a storm was about to arrive.

At this time, one parent privately messaged Tian Yulan, saying Zhong Yi seemed to have opened a cram school at the school, could it be Zhong Yi taught different knowledge in the cram school that wasn't taught in class?

Tian Yulan immediately agreed upon hearing this, a flash of anger crossing her eyes: "It's definitely like this. This Teacher Zhong Yi is too much, unscrupulous for the sake of making money."

Then Tian Yulan directly said in the parent group that Zhong Yi opened a cram school outside, lots of knowledge not taught in class, all saved for the cram school, forcing everyone to sign their kids up for cram school to make money.

Hearing this, the parents in the group were also righteously indignant. One parent said: "How can this be allowed? Isn't this unfair to our children?"

Another parent also said: "The school should manage this kind of behavior."

Everyone condemned Zhong Yi's behavior, demanding the school give an explanation. Tian Yulan looked at the group messages, heart full of fighting spirit, she decided to win back justice for the children.

Night fell, lights came on, the city's clamor gradually settling in the night.

Tian Yulan sat in the slightly cold living room, the soft sofa unable to relieve her inner anxiety at this moment. She took a deep breath, sent Zhong Yi a message inquiring how much the tutoring class cost.

At this moment Zhong Yi was in a bustling hot pot restaurant.

The store's lighting was warm and soft, decorative paintings on the walls adding a cozy atmosphere to the whole space. The pot's soup base boiled, steaming hot, emitting an enticing aroma.

Zhong Yi enjoyed this rare relaxed moment.

Suddenly, the mobile phone's notification sound broke this joy. He took out his phone, saw it was Tian Yulan's message, instantly full of doubt. His tutoring class had stopped long ago, how come this Tian Yulan was still coming to ask him?

Zhong Yi scratched his head, really couldn't figure it out, so he replied with a string of question marks and ignored it. He didn't want Tian Yulan's questions to ruin his good mood from this treat-yourself feast.

Tian Yulan anxiously awaited Zhong Yi's reply, when she saw that string of question marks her anger "whoosh" flared up. Her face flushed red with anger, she threw her mobile phone heavily onto the sofa, loudly saying: "This Zhong Yi, what kind of attitude! I was just asking about tutoring class fees, he just brushes me off like this."

Yan Peng sitting to the side watching his wife like this, felt very helpless inside. He put down the game controller in his hand, walked to Tian Yulan's side, softly said: "Wife, don't be so angry. Are you being too sensitive? You didn't investigate first, maybe they really didn't open a cram school."

Tian Yulan glared fiercely at Yan Peng, displeased saying: "You go play your game! All day long you just know how to play, don't know how to care about your son's studies. Now you still have the nerve to criticize me? Where's Zi You? Not at home?"

Yan Peng hurriedly replied: "He's at his grandpa and grandma's. He'll come back after eating. Dad and Mom told us to go over for dinner too, when are we leaving?"

Tian Yulan heard this, got even angrier, she loudly said: "Eat eat eat, all you know is eat! Zi You did this poorly on the exam, what's there to eat! You hurry up and call him to come back and do homework."

Finished speaking, she picked up her mobile phone again, and began discussing with parents in the WeChat group.

The living room was permeated with a tense atmosphere, Yan Peng helplessly shook his head, sighed, not knowing how to persuade his wife. He silently returned to his game corner, but his heart also worried for his child's future. After all, in this fiercely competitive society, children's education issues indeed cannot be ignored.
