Chapter 518: Peeping
After returning home yesterday, Teacher Wu thought about it the whole night, you could say she didn’t sleep well all night.
Especially after discussing it with her husband, she decided she couldn’t just give up like that.
Since the principal said these kids didn’t want to enter the advanced class, she decided to handle it personally, refusing to believe she couldn’t persuade the two of them.
Actually, Teacher Wu didn’t want to persuade the parents, but when she checked the student records, she couldn’t find a way to contact them. If she were the subject teacher, she could ask the parents to come in, but she didn’t have that standing.
Gong Ruini and her group were happily talking as they headed to school, "Bro, I didn’t expect I could still go to school."
Gong Ruini had already forgotten what it felt like to go to elementary school. After coming here, she was stuck at home taking classes, and she had to admit that returning to these early mornings was quite the pressure for her.
"You’ll be able to continue until you graduate from university." Zhao Xuran had noticed the difficulty Gong Ruini had in waking up. Poor girl, "Later, when you get to middle and high school, you’ll have to wake up even earlier."
"And we’ll also sleep very late." Zhao Xuran didn’t know where they would go for high school, but at least for middle school, it would take over twenty minutes on foot. It’s not exactly nearby.
Aaaah, what a painful topic, Gong Ruini commented, "I’ll study hard and skip grades."
After all, the current content isn’t difficult, so why follow routine reading step by step when it’s not only boring but also painful.
"Hello, you must be Gong Ruini and Zhao Guangran." Teacher Wu glanced over and immediately recognized the group of four.
Actually, she hadn’t focused too much on Gong Ruini yesterday, but Zhao Xuran left a deep impression on her, and seeing four people coming and going together, she naturally recognized them at once.
Gong Ruini and the others had already heard about Teacher Wu’s regret from Zhuge Ming yesterday, but that had nothing to do with them. It wasn’t as if they forced someone to give up; someone volunteered to do so.
Since she already gave up, there’s no need to try to coax them back now, "Hello, Teacher Wu."
Even though they didn’t hold this person in high regard, since they still had to study here, they didn’t need to offend anyone. Just take it as a way to train their temper.
Gong Ruini and her group were being polite, but what Teacher Wu heard was different, "Hello, yesterday I had an urgent matter and left early, so I didn’t get to talk to you about the advanced class."
"We..." went over the advantages of the advanced class, "and Zhuge Mingshan is in our class too, you could be classmates."
She couldn’t help but applaud her own intelligence and wit, sigh, it had been a long time since she was this capable.
Zhuge Mingshan, Gong Ruini had some impression of this person, but not because of any interaction. It was because Zhuge Ming mentioned yesterday that there were Zhuge family members in fourth grade. Actually, the Zhuge family already had people studying at this school, considering Zhuge Ming was the principal. If people from the Zhuge clan asked for help, what could he do?
However, it seemed that only a few kids like Zhuge Mingshan were successful, with her being the most accomplished.
Gong Ruini could only say that as long as there are people, it’s easy to find out information, really without secrecy, "Teacher Wu, Principal Zhuge talked with us, and we declined."
"Firstly, we previously attended school in the Northeastern rural area, unfamiliar with Beijing’s progress. Our current grades are fine, but we don’t know about the future."
"Secondly, the advanced class students have been classmates for several years already, we don’t need to join."
Before, not knowing about Zhuge Mingshan might have caused them to consider it, but now that they know she’s in the advanced class, why would they agree?
"No, we are not familiar with Zhuge Mingshan." Hmph, Zhao Guangran had no goodwill towards this person. So what if she’s part of the Zhuge family, should they have to get along with her?
Such a fierce girl, really don’t understand how the person in front could say she’s so great. Sigh, no wonder, she’s inherently not very bright, can’t expect her to be impressive.
Teacher Wu had hoped mentioning Zhuge Mingshan would persuade them to agree to join the advanced class, only to meet their confrontation instead, what’s going on?
She really didn’t understand, they were clearly staying at the Zhuge home, how could they not have goodwill towards Doctor Zhuge’s relatives?
"Alright, we’re leaving." Zhao Xuran was also a bit annoyed inside. The words spoken by the Zhuge family relatives that day were particularly unpleasant. How could they become friends with the Zhuge family’s relatives?
Regardless of whether Zhuge Zhi would be satisfied, they had no way to face their own brother. Their brother was such an understanding child, yet those words from those folks made him unable to have a good dream for a long time, occasionally waking up with fright.
Watching as Zhao Xuran and his group hurriedly left, Teacher Wu was truly baffled, what was going on, how could this happen?
Clearly, there was nothing wrong with what she said, she had explained what the advanced class meant, as long as they wanted good grades, they shouldn’t refuse such a good opportunity, right?
After Teacher Wu intercepted Gong Ruini and their group, she became the focal point. Everyone there kept staring at Teacher Wu, wanting to see how it turned out.
Of course, many people felt Gong Ruini and her group wouldn’t give up the chance to enter the advanced class, yet they never imagined Gong Ruini would make Teacher Wu so furious.
"No way, they actually don’t want to enter the advanced class."
"Aren’t they going a bit too far?"
"Impressive, that’s the way it should be. So what about the advanced class."
"My idols, when can I strut like that too." After all, they rarely got the chance to chat face-to-face with the advanced class advisor, let alone anger the teacher away.
Never thought they’d witness such a scene, it stirred everyone up.
Zhuge Mingshan had noticed this group from afar when Teacher Wu approached. The last time when they went to Grandpa Zhuge’s house, they wanted to meet these people, but they were sent away before even seeing them.
Hmph, these are the people trying to take things from Grandpa Zhuge, can’t just wait, must find a way to get them out.
Zhuge Mingshan wasn’t fully aware of her family’s situation but knew enough, and frankly, they didn’t have much left. This angered Zhuge Mingshan, Grandpa Zhuge wasn’t giving away things, still living well, why should their family give things away?
Just thinking about it gave Zhuge Mingshan a stomachache. If things didn’t get better with Grandpa Zhuge, could all the good stuff go to those people? Oh, plus there are two kids at home, some students of Grandpa Zhuge, how old are they? Can they learn medicine from Grandpa Zhuge?
Hmph, they must have known Grandpa Zhuge was soft-hearted, sending these two kids to break in first. Look, now there are six kids, soon to be four adults. No, five adults moved in.
These should all be hers, but the angrier Zhuge Mingshan thought, Grandpa Zhuge refused her when she previously expressed her interest in traditional Chinese medicine.
"I refuse to believe someone else’s better than me." Zhuge Mingshan glared at Gong Ruini and her group for a long time.
She thought they’d stay hidden in Grandpa Zhuge’s house. Didn’t expect them to come out, which made things easier, not needing to find time to deal with them.
