I Am A Boss Mommy That Wants To Slack Chapter 317 Two Tough Choices

317 Two Tough Choices
Just when Bai Yitong was feeling unhappy, he saw the teacher looking at him.
Sadly, he was too young to understand the complicated look in his teacher’s eyes. He proudly lifted his head, but in the next instant, he heard the teacher saying, “Chu Xiaoqi.”
Bai Yitong. “??”
He was completely stunned.
Even Chu Xiaoqi, who was sneakily eating snacks, was stunned. She lifted her head blankly and furiously stuffed the biscuit completely into her mouth. After that, she stood up. “Teacher, I didn’t sneakily eat!”
As she spoke, the crumbs from the biscuits could be seen falling out of her mouth.
The teacher. “…”
The other students. “…”
Chu Tianye and Chu Yu covered their faces, not wanting to admit that this was their little cousin!
Bai Yitong was staring stupidly at Chu Xiaoqi. After that, he glanced at Chu Tianye’s group of three before finally turning to look at the rest of his classmates. He discovered that everyone was looking at him. “Waaa~” Bai Yitong then started bawling.
–
In another location, at the office.
Dean Lin rushed back from the hospital, and when she entered her office, she saw a French old man currently sitting on the sofa. His hair was white and he had a kind look on his face.
After seeing Dean Lin, he stretched his hands out and spoke in fluent Chinese, “Hello, Dean Lin.”
Dean Lin shook hands with him. After the two old people exchanged gifts and pleasantries, Dean Lin then asked, “Teacher Sparton, I can understand why you chose Chu Tianye, Chu Yu, and Chu Xiaomeng. But why did you choose Chu Xiaoqi? From what I know, she scored zero on her entrance test and she also scored zero on the test you administered.”
Sparton laughed. “In truth, I only wanted to select three students, but you were the one who got me to pick one more. Let me explain, the other students of your school have received traditional education from their families, and Chu Xiaoqi is the only one who is like a blank piece of white paper. In addition, her intelligence isn’t low and she is very moldable. She is definitely a good seedling, and that’s the reason why I chose her. Why? Is there a problem?”
Dean Lin started.
She had used her friendship with Sparton to request one more slot. In truth, she was asking for that slot for Bai Yitong.
However, it wasn’t because Shen Wanying had treated her for many years. All of Shen Wanying’s help could be balanced out using money. Instead, it was for Matriarch Bai’s sake!
Dean Lin Yi and Matriarch Bai had known each other since they were children and could be considered best friends.
However, after Matriarch Bai was married and Dean Lin Yi decided not to be married for life, she suffered all sorts of setbacks, as everyone was against her. Matriarch Bai was the one who stood up and supported her relentlessly.
Their friendship had already lasted for over sixty years.
Because of this, Dean Lin Yi would consider things on behalf of Matriarch Bai no matter what she did.
However, she didn’t expect that Sparton would actually choose Chu Xiaoqi for the last slot.
She furrowed her brows.
When Sparton saw her expression, he smiled. “Is there a problem? Or maybe you have a request? If you don’t want me to accept Chu Xiaoqi, I can always accept someone else.”
Sparton had already retired, so he was very happy to have accepted three students with inestimable futures. Hence, he was willing to satisfy one of Dean Lin Yi’s wishes!
Dean Lin Yi pursed her lips.
For a time, she felt it tough to choose between friendship and Chu Xiaoqi.
She had been fair and upright her entire life, guiding children in their education with no selfishness. This time was the only time when she wanted to act selfishly, asking Sparton for one more slot. It was all for Matriarch Bai’s sake.
But what happened now?
Dean Lin Yi fell silent for a moment and decided to wait for Matriarch Bai to look for her before she discussed things with her.
Maybe, Matriarch Bai didn’t really regard the slot as important? If that were the case, wouldn’t she have deprived Chu Xiaoqi of a chance to study under one of the best teachers? In addition, Shen Ruojing had just saved her life…
For a time, Dean Lin Yi was in a dilemma.
At this moment, Shen Wanying who had just arrived to fetch her child learned of the news that her son wasn’t selected.
She was instantly stunned and also felt disbelief.
Bai Yitong always achieved exemplary results in school. How was it possible that he wasn’t selected?
Was Sparton blind? Why would he choose the daughter of a small-time celebrity?
She frowned and wanted to look for Dean Lin to get an explanation.
At this moment, some parents beside her were also stunned. “What? Sparton actually chose the fourth child of the Chu Family? Impossible!”
“What Chu Family? There is no Chu Family in the capital, right?”
“What does the Chu Family of Sea City count for in the capital? Based on what? Why are all the children from the Chu Family selected?!”
“I know! It must be because Madam Chu fed a life-saving pill to Dean Lin. This must be why Dean Lin gave her the slots, right?”
“It’s fine if it is just one slot, but Sparton is going to select four students. She can’t possibly give all four slots to Madam Chu, right? This is just too unfair to the remaining children!”
Some even directly spoke out for Shen Wanying and appeared to be feeling unfair for her on the surface. “Miss Shen, your son Bai Yitong is famous for being a genius in the school, yet he also wasn’t selected. Are you not anxious at all? Why don’t you speak to Dean Lin? You should quickly look for her and seek fairness!”
Shen Wanying wanted to say something. But at this moment, the teacher just released the scoreboard, showing the test paper and the children’s test results.
The test questions were indeed extremely difficult. Even Bai Yitong merely scored an A, while Chu Tianye, Chu Yu, and Chu Xiaomeng got A+!
Just a single set of test papers and the final results were enough to prove everything.
Shen Wanying immediately clenched her fists and looked at Bai Yitong.
She had initially wanted to scold her son for not working hard enough, but she also fell silent after looking at the questions.
These questions were so difficult. Could it be that Shen Ruojing’s three children really answered all perfectly?!
(How could she have such impressive children?!)
This was the first time Shen Wanying placed Shen Ruojing in her eyes. Shen Ruojing had unfathomable medical skills and three genius children. In addition, Chu Cichen didn’t look like an ordinary man either. Their family would rise to the peak sooner or later, right?
However, these three children were one thing. Chu Xiaoqi clearly scored zero, but why was she chosen as well?
Just when they were pondering, the teacher here suddenly spoke, “The selection criteria were personally decided by Teacher Sparton, and there was no bias. If you have any objections, you can contact him privately and he will explain to you.”
Shen Wanying naturally wouldn’t be the first to jump out as it was too embarrassing.
If the four great families wanted to do things, they would never do so openly.
In addition, Shen Wanying understood Dean Lin Yi’s character. If she stood out and spoke up, Dean Lin would definitely proceed with things fairly. Right now, only one person could help her.
Matriarch Bai!
She believed that as long as Matriarch Bai spoke, Dean Lin Yi would surely kick Chu Xiaoqi out. At that time, Bai Yitong would naturally be selected.
As she thought of this, she held Bai Yitong’s hand in an unflustered manner and smiled at the surrounding crowd. “We will comply with the school’s arrangement and support Dean Lin’s choice.”
Her movements were elegant, leaving an impression as though she was unmoved by neither gains nor losses as she brought Bai Yitong home.
Upon reaching home.
Shen Wanying pinched Bai Yitong, and he started crying due to the reminder.
Even if Matriarch Bai initially didn’t notice his return, because of this sobbing, she would soon notice it.
Matriarch Bai then walked forward. “Aiyo, what happened to my Little Tong?”
Bai Yitong shouted, “Unfair! I’m clearly in fourth place, but Teacher Sparton actually didn’t choose me. He chose that stupid fool who scored zero! Great Grandma, they are bullying me!”
Matriarch Bai immediately grew angry when she heard this. “What’s going on? If something doesn’t belong to us, we won’t want it. But if it rightfully belongs to us, no one can snatch it away! Tell me, who snatched your slot?”
Bai Yitong immediately took his phone out and searched for Chu Xiaoqi’s photograph. “Great Grandma, she was the one who snatched my slot!”
