Chapter 170

Seeing that Teacher Yu looked unhappy, Jiang Zhinian asked worriedly, "Teacher Yu, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Teacher Yu shook her head: "Oh, no. By the way, what's your husband's name? Maybe Cheng Fei mentioned it at home, but I forgot it."

"His name is Shi Ye. Actually, he and Zheng Chengfei were college classmates."

"Shi Ye?" Teacher Yu was stunned. She wrote the words "Shi Ye" on a piece of paper and pointed it to Jiang Zhinian. "Is this the name?"

"Yeah, that's right."

“So it was him…”

"Teacher Yu, did you know each other before?" Jiang Zhinian thought of a possibility. Shi Ye lived nearby, so it was very likely that he studied in the same primary school when he was young.

Teacher Yu took off her glasses and pinched her brows. "How could it be him... I was his homeroom teacher in elementary school. This kid was a little special when he was young. I was very impressed by him."

"special?"

Teacher Yu thought for a moment, then took Jiang Zhinian's hand and said, "Before third grade, he often failed Chinese exams. Later, I discovered that he seemed to have some dyslexia..."

"Dyslexia?" Jiang Zhinian naturally knew about dyslexia. Some children have no problems with intelligence and emotions, but when reading, they may not be able to read the text in the correct word order or cannot convert the shape of the word into the pronunciation.

However, Shi Ye's reading level must be no problem, otherwise he would not have been able to be admitted to the medical department of Yongning University and study all the way to a doctorate.

"Teacher Yu, you must have made a mistake."

Teacher Yu put his glasses back on and tapped the corner of his eye: "He has a pair of gray eyes, right?"

Gray eyes are extremely rare, and she was particularly impressed. Plus, they had the same name, so there was basically no way she would make a mistake.

Jiang Zhinian nodded: "Yes, it's gray eyes, it really is him, Teacher Yu. So, what happened next?"

"I later told Shi Ye's mother about this. Not long after, Shi Ye was transferred to an international school. I heard that if he really got into the medical department of Yongning University, perhaps his dyslexia would be cured."

Dyslexia is very complex. Some children can recover to the level of normal children through certain training, but for others, the problem persists and seriously affects their daily life.

Jiang Zhinian never thought that Shi Ye had actually suffered from reading problems when he was a child.

Teacher Yu continued, "This child has been very quiet since childhood, but he's very good at math. When some naughty kids tease him about his poor Chinese, he doesn't get angry or even hit them like other boys do."

Because of this, she couldn't help but pay more attention to the child, and patiently gave him extra lessons and explained the exercises, and then she discovered his reading problems.

"If I read an article to him, he can memorize it quickly and even repeat the entire article. He is a very smart child. If he can overcome his dyslexia, it will not be surprising that he can be admitted to Yongning University."

She was afraid that her talkativeness would cause Jiang Zhinian to mind Shi Ye's past, so she had to make amends quickly.

Jiang Zhinian smiled and said, "Teacher Yu, thank you for taking care of him in the past."

She probably understood why Shi Ye took care of Zheng Chengfei when they were in college. It must be because he knew about their mother-son relationship and had a sense of gratitude.

It was precisely because of Shi Ye, like a soft-hearted god, that she couldn't help but feel warm and fond of him.

…

Jiang Zhinian didn't go to Shi Ye for lunch. After eating in the school cafeteria, he contacted Chen Feng from Xiaofengche and asked about his cooperation with the charity gene organization.

"I sent them the requested information two days ago, but they just replied that the fund is currently short of funds and cannot approve our application for the time being."

How could this happen... Could it be that something happened to Madam Sun?

Jiang Zhinian was anxious and asked quickly.

"What about Xixi's surgery fee?"

Xixi is the little girl who was almost abandoned. She is waiting to raise money for surgery to save her life. She is still so young and has not seen the world properly. She has not even had the time to call "Mom". She really wants to help her.

"Luckily, I received a message from a somewhat mysterious organization. They said they were willing to provide long-term funding for us, but they were only willing to cover the hospital's surgery costs."

This means that they are unwilling to bear the expenses of other charity activities of Xiaofengche and only care about the cost of life-saving surgery. Generally, there are more individual donations, limited funds, and high targeting.

"Really? Then Xixi's surgery?"

"Well, I've already been in contact with the other party. If everything goes well, Xixi can arrange the surgery in a week."

"Very good."

This is undoubtedly good news for Jiang Zhinian.

The first thing she wanted to do was share the news with Shi Ye, but unfortunately the call didn't go through. Could it be that she encountered some emergency at noon?

She was a little worried that Shi Ye wouldn't be able to eat lunch properly, which would be bad for his stomach.

Hospital rooftop.

Wen Xinyu stood behind Shi Ye with red eyes, looking at the boy she had secretly loved since childhood. She broke down and asked, "Brother Shi Ye, is everything my father said true?"

Shi Ye turned around and asked calmly, "Who encouraged you to ask Uncle Wen?"

It seemed that he didn't care at all that Wen Xinyu knew his secret.

Wen Xinyu bit her lip and said guiltily, "No, no one instigated me."

Shi Ye thought for a moment and said casually, "Is it Zhou Hongyun? How did you two know each other?"

Zhou Hongyun once encouraged Yuan Miaomiao to find out her life experience from Wang Bo, so it is not surprising that she used the same trick again to use Wen Xinyu to explore his secrets.

Wen Xinyu was stunned: "You, how did you guess that?"

One day, she suddenly received a strange friend request asking her, "Do you want to know the secret of why Shi Ye doesn't like you?" She couldn't help but contact the other party.

As a result, the other party directly told her a shocking secret and told her that if she didn't believe it, she could ask her father for confirmation.

She didn't believe it at first, but when she thought of her father's inexplicable attitude towards Shi Ye, she couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Finally, a few days ago, she couldn't help it and flew back to the country to question her father, but the result she got was hard for her to accept.

Shi Ye lowered his eyes: "You're running back now, don't you want to study anymore?"

A look of hope gradually appeared on Wen Xinyu's face: "Brother Shi Ye, you care about me, right? I know that my father is wrong. You are not an emotionless monster. Look, you care about my studies and worry about me..."

"I'm not concerned about you. I just want to divert your attention with this question." Shi Ye pinched his fingers. He didn't feel embarrassed to be called an "emotionless monster". Even his face didn't show any emotion. He just looked down at Wen Xinyu with a pair of cold gray eyes. "Your father is right. Do you have any other questions?"
