"Okay." Fu Xi replied numbly. Even if she did her homework and read the books in a numb way, what difference would it make? She still wouldn't understand, and she wouldn't be able to answer the questions on the exam.

So she was just putting on an act, pretending to impress her mother.

Neither of them spoke during the meal. After finishing, Fu Xi cleared the dishes and went into the kitchen to wash them. Only after tidying up the kitchen did she return to her room and close the door.

"This child is really something. The older he gets, the less he likes to talk. Look at other people's children, they can talk so much. Sigh~" Mrs. Fu looked at the closed room and the door opened with a soft creak.

Fu Xi, who was sitting on the floor, instantly reddened when she heard these words. She had become like this because of her mother... She never gave her a chance to speak.

She has things that other children have, but not them.

Her mother only cared about work, endlessly saving money and controlling everything she did; she was in so much pain.

She finally understood what the older girls had said when she was little: there is no happiness when you grow up. Fu Xi covered her mouth to keep herself from making a sound, and her life went on day after day.

No friends, no hobbies, no dreams, just like a salted fish, living one day at a time.

Fu Xi spent the night with her pillow soaked with tears, her eyes red and swollen. When she woke up the next day, she went out early, not daring to let her mother see her red and swollen eyes.

She couldn't quite describe how she felt about her mother, but she felt that her mother was very good to her.

However, some of her methods caused her pain. It must be admitted that her mother loved her very much in her heart, but she didn't have time to show her love in her actions and hated her with her words.

That day, Fu Xi arrived at the classroom early again, expecting it to be empty as before.

She hadn't expected to see a new teacher on the podium, and she said shyly, "Hello, teacher."

"Bring a chair over here. I've already prepared the review materials for you. You can ask me if you don't understand anything." Wen Xiyang was still looking at the textbook and didn't look up when he spoke, but he already knew it was her.

"Okay." Fu Xi nodded, unable to refuse, and immediately pulled up a chair and sat down.

It has to be said that the new materials compiled by the new teacher are really easy to understand, and there are far fewer parts that she couldn't understand compared to before. Suddenly, she felt that this subject was not so difficult after all.

When she encountered something she didn't understand, Fu Xi silently ticked it off with a red pen, intending to ask about it later.

"You won't encounter it?" Wen Xiyang turned around and asked her gently, as if he had noticed her little action. He wondered what she had gone through to become so different from before.

She seems afraid of being noticed or causing trouble for others.

"Mmm." Fu Xi nodded eagerly and pushed the notebook over.

Wen Xiyang immediately spotted the red checkmark on question six. He glanced at it casually and understood it immediately. "This question is actually very simple. Look here..."

Wen Xiyang explained gently and carefully, and Fu Xi understood immediately. "Thank you, teacher," she said, and then continued reading.

You're welcome.

Fu Xi only needed to arrive at school an hour early to understand the questions for some subjects, which was an efficiency she had never achieved before.

She couldn't help but feel admiration for this teacher. How wonderful it would be if he could continue teaching her all subjects like this! Realizing her greed, Fu Xi shook her head vigorously.
