Chapter 410 is simply too obvious.

She stayed in the teacher's office for more than an hour, as Teacher Qin mentioned Chu De'an's performance at school.

The more they talked, the angrier they got, and the siblings both shrank back as they were scolded.

When Shen Xuewei was in school, she was a frequent visitor to the teachers' office, but this time was different.

Standing here, I feel particularly insecure.

She couldn't refute anything she said; all she could say throughout was:

"Yes, yes, you're right, teacher. I'll definitely give him a good talking to when I get back."

"It's Chu De'an's fault, he deserves to be scolded."

"I'll listen to you. From now on, you can hit him or scold him as you see fit. As his older sister, I'll have no complaints. He deserves to be disciplined..."

As Chu De'an listened to Shen Xuewei's apology throughout, he became increasingly horrified.

His sister had never received such treatment before.

This is all his fault; he's finished today!

With the formidable Shen Xuewei present, he appeared quiet and well-behaved this time, unlike his usual behavior when he came to the office.

Teacher Qin recounted Chu De'an's performance at school to Shen Xuewei, and her throat became dry.

She picked up her teacup, took a sip to moisten her throat, and said earnestly:

“Shen Xuewei, no matter how busy you are with work, you must pay more attention to your younger brother’s growth. Children of this age can easily go astray if they are not careful.”

"He's a senior in high school now. He doesn't study properly in class all day. He skips class to go out and play. He keeps talking about brothers and loyalty... I won't say any more."

"School's almost over, you can take him home now. Let him reflect on his actions this weekend. See if he wants to drift aimlessly like this, or prepare properly for the college entrance exam."

Shen Xuewei said with a serious expression, "Okay, teacher, I understand your good intentions. Don't worry, my whole family will definitely give him some advice and guidance this weekend."

Teacher Qin finally smiled with relief.

Shen Xuewei dared not stay at school any longer, nor did she intend to visit any other teachers to catch up.

As he led Chu De'an out of the office, the smile on his face vanished in an instant, replaced by a sinister glare he gave Chu De'an.

Chu De'an dared not utter a single word throughout, for fear that Shen Xuewei might suddenly erupt.

When they arrived at the school gate, Peng Zhiyun opened the back door and let Shen Xuewei sit down.

Chu De'an hesitated to get into the car, but Peng Zhiyun held onto the car door and gestured for him to get in quickly.

Before Shen Xuewei could get angry, Chu De'an opened the passenger door and jumped into the car in a flash.

The three people in the car didn't utter a single word the entire way.

The atmosphere was oppressive. When they finally returned to Fuxing Village, Chu De'an secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But clearly, he breathed a sigh of relief too soon.

As Shen Xuewei got out of the car, her first words to the Chu family members who came to greet her were to complain about Chu De'an.

"Second Aunt, Second Uncle, you should really keep a close eye on Chu De'an."

She relayed everything Teacher Qin had said to the two of them in one go, and saw the smiles that had just appeared on their faces slowly disappear, and they almost simultaneously took off their shoes.

Chu De'an's body was tense, and he smiled obsequiously, pleading for mercy:

"Mom and Dad, listen to me..."

Chu Fu interrupted him, "I'm not going to listen to your nonsense. Just tell me, are the things your homeroom teacher said true?"

"Skipping classes, going to internet cafes, not taking naps in the dorm, not doing homework properly, and having a combined score of less than 300 in six subjects... You just need to say yes or no."

Chu De'an nervously licked his lips, trying to salvage the situation:

"Yes, but I swear, I will never do it again..."

Chu Fu nodded, threw away the shoes he was holding, and took the stick that Chu Dexi handed him.

"Then there's nothing more to say."

He used to laugh at someone else's grandson for having yellow hair, but now it's his turn. His son has dyed his hair an even more outrageous red, it's unbearable to look at!

"Aww! Aww! Mom and Dad, I was wrong, I'll never do it again, I swear!"

Under the corporal punishment of Chu Fu and Chen Fangli, Chu De'an's screams could be heard far and wide.

Grandpa Chu stood there with his hands behind his back, leaning against the door. Even though he heard Chu De'an's cries for help, he showed no intention of pleading for him.

Chu Dexi stood beside him and relayed what Shen Xuewei had just said to Grandpa Chu, embellishing the story.

Grandpa Chu sighed and walked a long way with his hands behind his back.

Having been disciplined, Chu De'an temporarily calmed down.

Given his performance during high school, no one believed he was genuinely honest.

That evening, after washing up, Shen Xuewei went downstairs for a drink of water. She inadvertently noticed that Chu Fu and Chen Fangli's door was not closed properly, and she could vaguely hear them talking.

Shen Xuewei knocked on the door. "Second Aunt, Second Uncle, may I come in?"

Chu Fu responded, and Chen Fangli stepped forward and opened the half-closed door.

"Come in, Weiwei. Your second aunt's husband and I are still awake. Let's talk."

Shen Xuewei pulled up a stool from her room and sat down beside her.

"Second Aunt, Second Uncle, are you still thinking about De'an?"

The two nodded with worried expressions, "Yes."

"He's only behaving himself now because we beat him up, and he's admitting his mistakes. But when he goes back to school, he'll just hang out with those shady friends again, and won't that be the same thing?"

Chu Fu smacked his lips, feeling so worried he wanted to smoke again.

“If we don’t keep a close eye on De’an, he probably won’t even get into a junior college when he takes the college entrance exam.”

"It's also my fault. After he went to high school in the county, he only came back once every two weeks. Your second aunt takes care of the elderly and also has to look after Kang Kang, so she asked me to pick him up and drop him off and keep an eye on him..."

“He always said yes to everything I asked before, so I neglected to let him develop these bad habits…”

Speaking of this, Chen Fangli pinched his arm in anger.

"You have the nerve to say that? I give him enough for living expenses every month. Who told you to secretly give him an extra 500 yuan every month?"

"Which student has that much living expenses per month? If he doesn't have that much money, he won't even have the money to skip class and go out to play."

"Look, he's broke. Will his friends still hang out with him?"

Chu Fu pleaded, "Ali, be gentle, be gentle. I was just... thinking about how he's growing, feeling sorry for him, and wanting him to eat better at school, right?"

The two of them started arguing, and Shen Xuewei quickly stopped them.

"Second Aunt, Second Uncle, stop arguing! What's the point of arguing?"

"Have you come up with any ideas yet?"

Chen Fangli pinched Chu Fu hard again before answering Shen Xuewei's question seriously.

“I think your second aunt’s husband is unreliable. Before the college entrance examination in De’an, I moved to your aunt’s house in the county. I’ve already called your aunt to tell her.”

"As for the family, I'll leave it to your second aunt's husband to take care of. I'll stay in the county and be able to supervise De'an's studies and keep him away from those bad friends. I'll move back after the college entrance exam..."

That is indeed a solution, but...

"Second Aunt, De'an's grades are too bad. He's already falling behind the teacher's pace. Unless the teacher gives him extra help, he won't improve much..."

Chu Fu scratched his head. "Then let the teacher give him extra tutoring?"

Chen Fangli rolled her eyes at him. "Do you think teachers aren't busy? With so many students, do you just revolve around this one student all day?"

This person speaks as if it's all too natural.
