The Breakfast Shop Owner and the Man He Picked Up (XIX)

"It's almost the weekend again, let me assign homework now."

As soon as the voice from the podium fell, there was a burst of wailing from the audience.

The head teacher laughed and scolded while assigning assignments.

"A bunch of high school seniors are still dreaming about having a weekend? Just be good and do more exercises and memorize more. After you finish the college entrance examination, you will have plenty of time to play."

"Teacher, I heard from my brother that you said the same thing to him before. As a result, he couldn't have fun at all after entering university. Not only did he have to study, but he also had to take the CET-4 and CET-6. He also had to confirm whether he wanted to take the postgraduate entrance examination. If he did, he had to work diligently for several years."

Someone retorted dejectedly.

The head teacher exclaimed, "Then your brother is really a bad person, telling you about the darkness of society so early."

After he finished speaking, he urged, "Since you know that it is more comfortable now than before, why don't you cherish it? Hurry up and write down your homework. I will check it next week."

Everyone sighed, and someone suddenly turned around and looked at Song Ning, who was sitting in the last row and had a calm temperament.

"Hey, Song Ning, I heard from my mom that you were already making money before, so why did you come back to study? Studying is so hard. My mom said that if I don't get a higher-paying job than her after I graduate, she will beat me to death because I wasted a lot of her money studying."

Song Ning, who was suddenly called, looked up with a slight surprise. The afterglow of the afternoon sunset shone on his profile. The fine bangs that Lance had carefully trimmed for him could not cover his delicate eyebrows and the clarity in his eyes. It was like the coolest breeze in summer blowing into people's hearts, making everyone who saw it feel calmer and more peaceful.

After thinking for two seconds with his nose resting on his chin, Song Ning answered sincerely.

"Because studying is very happy, and I can learn a lot of new knowledge. I don't have to think too much. I just need to focus on myself and my future studies. As for making money, it's too tiring and too hard."

If it weren't for Lance, he never would have even thought about returning to school again in this life, so this made him cherish it even more.

“Is making money harder than studying?”

The person asking the question was a little bit unbelievable.

"Of course."

Song Ning took it for granted.

He thought for a moment and gave an analogy, "Look, we still have the energy to play ball after finishing our studies, but your parents usually don't want to move at all when they get home from overtime work, right?"

The classmate thought, "What you said seems to be true, especially since my dad has to accompany clients for drinks every time. He always comes back drunk and vomits, and my mom scolds him after vomiting. It's so miserable."

His desk mate also sighed.

"It's not that bad if it's just like this. My dad is super busy. He's out driving his car every day and I only see him two or three months a year. I basically don't see him at all."

"My dad is the same. He said that it is more profitable to drive Didi here at night. He still drives Didi after get off work every day. I once got up at two or three o'clock to go to the bathroom and saw that he had just returned home."

"My dad is a food delivery guy, but he often works until one in the morning."

"So making money is indeed harder than studying."

"Alas, after studying hard, I have to work hard to make money. What a miserable life. Oh my head, why did you hit me, teacher?"

"I'm assigning homework and you're misleading others below? If you don't want to work so hard in the future, then study hard. Didn't your parents tell you that they suffered so much because they didn't study much in the past?"

The head teacher knocked on each of these people one by one, and Song Ning was not spared.

"Just concentrate on listening in class and don't think about other things all the time. As long as you study hard, you will definitely be much more successful than your parents in the future. Then you can let them enjoy a good life with you."

"Oh, I know."

"Teacher, tell me what you just assigned. I didn't hear you."

"I'll let you guys gossip. Go ask other students. I have to rush to the next class."

The head teacher turned to leave, but suddenly turned back and patted Song Ning on the shoulder.

"By the way, Song Ning, come with me."

Song Ning didn't understand what was going on, but he still packed up his things, got up and followed.

office.

The head teacher looked at the new students he had accepted this semester with a kind expression.

"Song Ning, I looked through your information and I have something to ask you in advance. There will be a parent-teacher conference next week. Do you have any relatives who can come and attend the conference for you?"

He had read the child's information. His parents passed away a few years ago and he dropped out of school to raise a foster brother. However, the foster brother ran away in the first half of the year with his biological parents who came to find him. Now it seems that someone is supporting Song Ning's studies.

But Song Ning’s emergency contact person was a young man who was only one year older than him. You can’t let a 20-year-old boy attend the parent-teacher meeting, right?

That's why he came to ask Song Ning in advance.

parent meeting?

Song Ning was not unfamiliar with this word. In previous years, when Ergouzi had to attend a parent-teacher meeting, he would ask for help from his next-door neighbor.

Song Ning asked tentatively, "Can we have a neighbor elder who we are on good terms with?"

Is it true that this child has no relatives at home?

The head teacher wanted to say yes, but still spoke in a kind and gentle tone.

"It may not be a good idea to have a good relationship with them. The main purpose of the parents' meeting is to report to your parents about your situation in school. On the other hand, we hope that your parents will cooperate with the school to help you have a good learning state in this most important year for you. So it is best to have family members who live together, or relatives who can help you."

After the head teacher finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment and motioned Song Ning to sit down.

After Song Ning did as he was told, he lowered his voice and said softly, "I heard that someone is supporting your studies now? Is it your relative? Can he come to the parent-teacher meeting for you?"

Since Song Ning had no relatives but was able to return to school, perhaps there were kind-hearted people in the society who sponsored him?

Perhaps these kind-hearted donors are a better choice than those mere neighbors.

And if those kind-hearted people saw Song Ning's situation, they might be able to give him more help, which would be the best of both worlds.

The person who paid for his studies?

Song Ning subconsciously thought of Lance's face, and a trace of reluctance arose deep in his heart.

He didn't want Lance to be noticed by so many people. Lance was his...

Song Ning was stunned for a moment.

What was Lance to him? What was he thinking?

But the head teacher misunderstood his meaning and sighed softly.

Yes, it’s great that those enthusiastic people can help with education. They all have their own lives and they can’t make things difficult for others.

"Then you can ask your neighbor's elders to come, and I will register them in advance."
