He didn’t harbour many sad thoughts. He had grown accustomed to facing unsolvable problems. He only spoke up when he genuinely couldn’t comprehend.
Su Qing couldn’t help but question herself, had they done something wrong?
“I’ll discuss it with her when she returns from the capital,” she resolved.
Cao Jun immediately regretted his words. He feared he had offended his second aunt and worried about being unwelcome during future visits.
His apprehensions were swiftly confirmed. The teacher temporarily assigned to maintain order banged the table forcefully. “Quiet, all of you, keep quiet.”
“Teacher, why did that student cut the queue?” The woman in the red scarf shouted.
“She got first place in the county, so she has the right.”
The woman in the red scarf fell silent, her face flushed.
The crowd in the office was shocked. “First place in the entire county?” “Such a smart girl.”
“Doesn’t that mean she is almost guaranteed to get into university?
Ignoring the commotion, the teacher approached Su Qing with a polite smile. “Are you Su Xue’s parent?”
“I’m Su Xue’s sister.”
“Hello,” the teacher looked behind Su Qing, not seeing her parents. “Your parents aren’t here?”
Su Qing pursed her lips but remained calm. “My parents have passed away. You can tell me if you got anything. I’m here to represent my parents.”
The teacher was stunned and immediately apologized. “I’m sorry for offending you.”
“It’s okay. You don’t have to take it to heart.” Su Qing was accustomed to such situations.
Su Qing’s composed demeanour had given a positive impression on the teacher.
It wasn’t easy for Su Xue to maintain excellent grades after losing her parents. The teacher decided to pay more attention to such a resilient student in the future.
“Then come with me. I’ll be Su Xue’s form teacher from now on. There are some things we need to discuss with the parents.”
“Alright!” Su Qing turned to Cao Jun. “Can you stay here and wait for Xuexue?” “Oh! Alright, I’ll line up first,” Cao Jun replied.
After leaving the registration office, they headed to the teacher’s office building next door. The first office they entered belonged to the Year One officer. Inside were over ten desks, and several students and their parents had already gathered.
Upon entering, Su Qing saw Su Xue in the front row of students, attentively listening to the teacher.
“By the way, do you know the girl who skipped a grade and got into the university this year?” the form teacher curiously asked.
“Oh! I don’t know her,” Su Qing initially wanted to mention her fifth sister, but Cao Jun’s words flashed across her mind, prompting a last-minute change.
Fifth Sister was exceptional; it was hard for people to catch up with her. Su Qing didn’t want Fourth Sister to be compared to Fifth Sister throughout high school. It was unfair to Fourth Sister and entirely unnecessary.
“I see that you’re all from Trinity Village, and your surname is Su.” “We’re from a distant place. We just happen to share the same surname.” “I see. The Su family from Trinity Village is quite well-known in our school. I apologize; I shouldn’t have mentioned that to others. Su Xue is outstanding too. We’ve reviewed her middle school papers. She’s an exceptionally talented student. Nurturing such talent is no easy feat.”
Su Qing listened to the form teacher for half an hour, agreeing to the teacher’s request and expressing her concern for the importance of students’ mental health..
